holders, united states and elsewhere in large obs companies would lose millions of millions or is business and business is good. and that is the reality of what we're facing. which is fashion a cleaning and we'll get full net, a nuclear power plant in the country. now the controls by russia for the 2nd time in 2 days walking fresh space. the potential is off with when people are killed in gauze or including think children in the ongoing exchange of between the israeli forces and is limited militant about the as an absence of condemnation from the west course. his outrage in the arab world under the week top stories trying to flex this military. most schools around high want and respond to approval puts a visit to the island by us. how speaking nancy pelosi,
9:01 am
my badge in warning against then with hello and welcome you. watching the weekly on, on the international with the latest news updates, along with the reminder at the stories that shapes the past. 7 days, thanks for tuning in. ukraine has a shelby area near a nuclear power plant in the country south for the 2nd time in 2 days vast, according to rushing back to officials in ukraine, southern stop rogia region. who said that rockets and truck no felt just a few 100 meters from the atomic facilitate here. some of the footage released by local authority showing the aftermath of sundays attack and cranes military assets . we've used multiple rocket launchers with close to munitions to show the area near the active nuclear power plant. russia has previously warned that a direct hit on the reactive could spock
9:02 am
a disaster was than should noble. the previous shelling of the area took place on friday, sparking to fire at the facility with some power lines linked to the plant also going down last month. this light was bummed with remotely controlled drones. can't deny its responsibility for the attacks. and it's blamed moscow instead. meanwhile, the international atomic energy agency has raised the alarm over the security of the nuclear power plant. the a has received information about the serious situation, military action, jeopardizing the safety and security of his approach. nuclear power plant is completely unacceptable and must be avoided at all costs. any military firepower directed or from the facility would amount to playing with fire with potentially catastrophic consequences. that port o c, a nuclear power plant is the largest the in europe. pants is among the top 10 in the world. it's reactors pump out enough power to supply millions of people with 50
9:03 am
percent more capacity than the infamous should noble plans? well, let's cross that to i guess. for me us the ring co intelligence office called returned many thanks for joining us on the program. it's always good to see now scott, what do you make of these latest developments? local officials are saying that ukrainian rockets have fallen knit as opposed to power plants the 2nd time in 2 days. how concerned should we be about this? i take the rushing statements about the danger, the situation at face value. if these rockets were to hit the critical infrastructure, this could unleash a chain of events that could result in a nuclear catastrophe. that would exceed that of turnover. and it's not just that, you know, the physical terrain of ukraine in around the nuclear plant would be effected. they're talking about contamination of the black sea, which then would drift on to the, the boss, wrist, the dart,
9:04 am
nails and beyond. you know, this would have, you know, regional and global consequences. so, you know, the idea is right to speak out. but why aren't they naming the perpetrator? you know, it's not military action. it's ukrainian military attack against the peaceful nuclear power facility. that's what's happening here. and i think you have to provide that name, that recognition of who is responsible for this in order to better come up with a solution because the solution will come when nations like the united states, the nato nations, european union lead ukraine. no, with, with 0 doubt that to continue this would put all support at risk that this is unacceptable. of course, we have discontinued 2 sides to the story going on cuz he has repeatedly claiming most guy for the attacks on the new care plot with your assessments. of these accusations, these are the easiest things in the world to refute. i'm an old artilleryman to me
9:05 am
on the ground show me where the rockets landed and i'll do a reverse asthma and tell you the direction that the strikes came from it. the directions point ukrainian lines. there's your answer. also we're doing this is a war zone that has significant air defense. i can guarantee you that the air defense units are both ukraine, russia and the nato nations monitoring the situation, have recorded and tracked the incoming artillery. so this, this has a ready answer. there is no question. it's simply ukrainian government muddy the waters for a political ration relations purposes at the i think the re sufficient awareness of the dangers of attacking the power plan. no, not at all. i think that one up there, there's a problem because russia is the entity providing the warning. and so the west right now is it is, is precondition to downplay anything coming out of russia,
9:06 am
especially when it's critical of ukraine. and then again, when the i e, a speaks out, it does so in this quasi neutral fashion, which, you know, because they're not assigning blame it, dilutes the, the, the effectiveness of the warning. i think, you know, everybody involved should understand that if one of these nuclear power plants instead of the control mechanisms or if, if the nuclear fuel storage is hit, this could set off a catastrophe. that again would make, you know, will pair a pale by comparison to remember this mitigation of a nuclear disaster in a time of war is nearly impossible. so not only would the disaster occur, but you wouldn't get the kind of concerted focused on emergency response that you had for instance, with your normal. so this thing to just spiral out of control, this is a very dangerous situation. but the concerns from the res, by b, i. e,
9:07 am
a may have been like last and as you say, but at least a spoken up. do you think we might expect any more reaction from the international community? again, we should. the problem is that in order to highlight the risk posed by continued military action targeting this facility, you would have to name the perpetrator of the attacks. and right now of the, the west is loath to say anything critical of ukraine. one only need witness the response to the end of the international report about, you know, ukraine using civilians as human shields. the world is rejecting this, you know, giving it a stiff, our, it's in to speak out about this threat. would, you'd have to, you know, make sure the world understood who was perpetrating this threat. it's not russia, it's ukraine. and right now the west just doesn't want to say anything that's critical of your grade, especially during this critical time where ukraine is begging for military
9:08 am
assistance begging for western financial support. how can you send military equipment to a nation that is using that military equipment to put the world at risk of a nuclear holocaust. that was lost. that's the thing i can to prevent possible. not that is on there, i suppose. yeah. i mean, i think russia, you know, but i don't know enough to be critical. i don't want to be critical. but if there was ever a critical air defense, a target that needed a massive air defense capabilities, anti missile defense capabilities. it's this nuclear power plant, the ramifications of it being struck up and having a nuclear disaster are beyond any other target in ukraine. there's no other target and ukraine is valuable as this in terms of consequences. so russia needs to step up its defense and then the world needs to put pressure on your crane. you know,
9:09 am
this is you're responsible, this is not self defense. this is putting the world at risk. this is ukraine holding the world hosted. so the world needs to step up and simply say, again this could in today if president bi, picked up the phone, bulbs, zalinski and said one more rock and hits this nuclear power plant. all american aid is cut off for ever cease and desist. we will support whatever else you want to do, but not this. got right so many things. joining us on the program, not satisfied with the former us marine corps intelligence officer. thanks for your time. now moving on palestinian health officials say 3 children had been killed in israel's latest strikes on garza, the does told has risen to 31 since the start of israel's military operation. on friday, the i d. s. has denied responsibility for the latest civilian casualties on sunday and is blamed the islamic jihad movement for the death. this comes amid some media reports, claiming that israel is seeking
9:10 am
a cease fire television. at least 585 rockets have been 5 into the country from garza, although the i'm don't ad defense system has intercepted most of them. i see the steps up in the bombing of gauze or in response to the cox palestinian officials say some 650 buildings have been damaged. this is why some of the locals have been caught up in the crossfire. i had to say the sabbath without any warning, they targeted the area near the kuwaiti hospital. or, of course, it is a camp, crowded with children, women, and the elderly section. they targeted houses with 6 missiles, 6 houses were completely destroyed. below for the attack was very terrifying. we ran away in panic and fear among the children and women in the company that we should. the bulldozers could not go through. so they asked me to demolish my house so that they could enter to save people from the inside. i agreed and allowed them to act as people's lives are more important and saving them is more valuable than my house. chavez. and his local journalists include reporting on a funeral procession in garza. today's the 3rd day of the is right now aggression
9:11 am
on the gaza strip. and now we are in the middle of the north of the causal trip. now there is a funeral that's going out of the mosque, demoss, where at least by palestinian children have been killed last night from an is ready for the house and nurse are here to read the law of the children according to the palette sitting minute job has at least have been killed since the 1st day of digression, at least 200 policy and not been wanted, continues as they have been no agreement or by agreement so far. the arab league has condemned israel in, quote, the strongest possible terms for military operation as brussels as justifies the bombing of garza sparking outrage in the european parliament. the you calls for maximum restraint on all sides in order to avoid
9:12 am
a further escalation and further casualties. while israel has the right to protect its civilian population, everything must be done to prevent a broader conflict. so this is what joseph burl cause. israel has the right to protect its civilian population seriously, murdering grandmothers and 5 year old girls. amazingly no e o calls to sanctioned a poppy israel and send arms to god. so people can defend themselves. sika found to cooper carrots. iran has previously also slammed as well for its military operation . for thing supports a guns is islamic jihad militant group and saying that they are not alone. meanwhile, let me landscape why if you lay now has praised what she calls israel with millions calling. it's an inspiring example for ukraine. we discussed the client this on the international response to it with human on labor rights lawyer down at catholic life is franco li, according to the un on livable in gaza. and now without any electricity,
9:13 am
which is also going to affect, of course, the ability to pump water, people will be on the verge of, of it on sustainability. and that's of course, the whole plan that israel high, i've been saying for years that this is a slow moving gems. israel has been blockading garza preventing garza from getting life saving medicines, getting food again from getting the water. israel wants to either forcibly remove or destroy the population in gaza that needs the definition of a genocide. i don't see the international community as for filling its duties to prevent war crimes and human rights abuses against people in the occupied territories. and i want to add, you know, the u. s. is recently said, well, we think is utilized the right to defend itself. well,
9:14 am
what about the palestinians right? to defend themselves. the u. s. supports the genocide. let's face the u. s. c's. israel is, it's client, stay as the chair in the middle east, and it supports it's designs on taking over all the occupied territories. taiwan military is reportedly planning to conduct artillery drills during the upcoming week. that will come as a response to chinese exercises over the island for stocks in the wake of us, how speak and nancy pelosi is controversial visit to ty, pe ratings. military exercises around the island include a ballistic missile launches, which landed in the waters of taiwan. china's armed forces also conducted drills in thick zones surrounding the island. waiting for military said the exercises were focused on training for a joint blockade, as well as the target assault. as faith control. hi, pay has condemned beijing calling it an evil made by next door. also accusing china
9:15 am
of destroying the taiwan strait with military drills. washington also criticized the chinese drove, describing them as a responsible and provocative and retaliation for policies trip. beijing has 7 ties with washington in several key areas. china is foreign ministry states. the cooperation is now frozen in areas such as dialogue between defense departments, military maritime consultation cooperation on illegal migration and crime as well as climate change. chinese military officials have also allegedly stopped responding to calls from the pentagon counterparts. here's how else the situation has been developing. how speaker nancy pelosi is planned to visit taiwan potential stop in taiwan visiting taiwan, visiting taiwan. why is she assisting that? she may well go to taiwan. it would be a serious violation of the one china principal and a grave infringement on china's sovereignty and territorial integrity. those who
9:16 am
play with fire will come to no good and mm think we are in an unpredictable moment. chinese military assembling at 6 different locations around the island. us china relations are on shaky ground with why were she doing in taiwan? or she was china's dream. she gave them an excuse. they'd be looking for that excuse. she gave her everything she touches turns to, you know, seems to me your main goal was to stir up trouble. thanks for bringing more
9:17 am
problems to the world. america. and with taiwan, with beijing announced it will impose, i'm specifying sanctions jonna will stop cooperation with us on several prominent issues appeared of measures are being directed at the united states. now the u. s. has acting treacherously on the taiwan issue with taiwan itself. was also affected by policies trip. as china, the islands biggest trading partner has bond imports with from more than 30 taiwanese companies. earlier, i took a closer look at the consequences of pelosi visits. toner is already taking action, as it warned it would fall out from palostio. whirlwind trip has been swift and brutal, so quite rightly people are asking the question. we have seen the chinese authorities
9:18 am
take multiple economic actions against individual chinese companies. an entire sectors of the economy. taiwan has already paid the field and is likely to continue to do so. with the coming days of week. what concrete tangible benefits could be promised taiwan, offset the cost of a tricky question. slickly deflected because she knew exactly what she'd done and americans have made a bit of a habit of doing things like this, throwing others under the bus in service of their own goals, and the consequences over this brief trip are already taking hold global markets, so spooked and the largest military drills around tie one in decades. ah
9:19 am
let's say, might prove that the economic measures imposed by china will hurt taiwan. the most staging has already banned imports from $35.00 taiwanese exports plus restrictions on some fruit and fish. and one might not sound like a big deal. the bun onside to which the island was already short of plus if a key component of ty, one's greatest export semiconductors, which have not be mentioned. well, not yet. if aging does decide to go further, people on the streets will be sure to feel it. china is tiwana largest trading partner after roll. so is it any wonder that there were people in taiwan who weren't engaging in the pillow? see, love fest, danny 90 pill. what do you mean below? see what the hell i doing here right now? come all the way here to support the 2. these people support yourself. you want to support us to fight against the peoples of the recent army that americans always ask us to let more to when people joined the army. whenever you come to taiwan or want us to buy more weapons from you and fight against the people's liberation army
9:20 am
in urban terrain, it's none of your business. i hate to support taiwan or to provoke a war. what the hell are you doing here below? see the relationship between the mainland until one is already very tense. you're supporting to one what we don't need your support. you are literally filtering oil on the flames. you only make things worse. so who did this flying visits? first, was simply pelosi. he wanted to be picked than a chair in ty pay before he attention. he gets kicked out this november, or was it the war hawks in washington hooping ratcheting up the t china rhetoric for months now? oh, and of course the military industrial complex, the very heart of american foreign policy. american officials have been quietly pressing their ty, wendy's. counterparts to buy weapons suitable for a symmetric warfare. a conflict in which is smaller, military uses mobile systems to conduct lethal strikes on a much bigger force. they can say what it has here is a win win. not only does it make money on selling weapons, but it also has
9:21 am
a li for us weapons at the ready in the region. should it decide it needs them? as we know, taiwan wouldn't be the 1st to pay the price for the policies of dc warhawks. people in afghanistan all starving because the government can't access its own money, which is frozen by the us. those tens of thousands of venezuelans who pay the ultimate price for the u. s. as punitive sanctions. and then there's the ukranian people who critic say dying needlessly. just in american poll and the u. s. proxy war with russia. but apparently in the long run, it's always a price worth paying. we have heard half a 1000000 children died. i mean, that's more children than died when in hiroshima and you know, if the price worth it. i said this is a very hard choice, but the price we think the price is worth it. so now he's tie one and pelosi won't
9:22 am
even give it a 2nd thought she got her photo after all professor of politics. joseph mahoney says the by name ministration is openly meddling in china's affairs and proceeds visits taiwan could be the tipping point. for many are concerned, the fighting has been hollowing out the one china policy and the principal a strategic ambiguity. his characterization of china is a strategic rival. it's pressing nato to consider china as an adversary is block building in asia with office, including perforating nuclear submarines to austria, his meddling and china's affairs, and she and young tibet, hong kong anti one. his admission of us troops and ty bag is efforts to draw china is immediate neighbors into the so called indo pacific quad, his encouraging japan to increase military capabilities and amendment to upgrade a controversial missile system in south korea. all while asserting the u. s. will come to, ty, wants defense, and at times, equivocating on the one china policy. all of these collectively represent several
9:23 am
red lines, cross from aging perspective, and now with blows it coming. this might be the tipping point. here's how the chinese on taiwanese military results. if cali up high pace, total active forces on just a fraction of what paging commands. number of chinese aircraft navy ships untangled, a vase may exceed taiwan military forces. united states has been supplying the island with arms for years and even the stuff, the nuclear program, the tie, want to, to, to a potential chinese attack. for a long period of time, the u. s. continued to increase its unofficial military presence in taiwan. despite the rising tensions between ty pay and beijing while officially sticking to its $1.00 china policy under which washington does not recognize, tie one as an independent country. investigative journalist edward salsa. pelosi visit to taiwan was also meant as a distraction from america's own problems at home. we have another example of the
9:24 am
united states over extending itself. me for example, with nancy pelosi, i think all this visit was, well, the high, a high cost distraction that people, as you know, said the average american can't even point out where tiwana is on a map, but passes the cost of food, the cost of fuel. these are the things that after americans care about, but then we see nancy pelosi and taking a little bit of a vacation around the world and at a time when trying to nothing but to gain from doing a little church right now. they get the entire world to concentrate on ensuring what their motor is capable. what this shows, 1st of all, is the child is able to project power or its own country. time on the front on the doorstep, you're going to see the use of futuristic safety, patristic, but high technology, long range, ballistic missiles. they're going to use this is the firing mechanism for many of the indirect fire they're going to show off. and the reason going to do this is because the united states, as a counter to present the landscape comp advisor,
9:25 am
say ukraine will hold, pace talks only when it has the military mind to repel russia on the growing number of global voices cool for negotiations, much of the western establishment stones continues to have repercussions on all sides. art is contributed rachel moss and explains. is it possible to be against dumping more weapons into ukraine and in favor of a negotiated piece without being denounced as a kremlin mouthpiece? an increasing number of prominent western figures are bucking the status quo and taking their chances. mexican president, under his manuel lopez oberon door, was already one of the very 1st set of the gate back in april to call for a peaceful resolution. do you see him? it is still time to call for peace to reach agreements that we have to achieve. peace so that neither the people of ukraine, nor of the people of russia, nor any people in the world continue to suffer and suffer from this rationality and
9:26 am
will decline to impose anti russian sanctions. at the outset of the conflict, citing the desires, you have good relations with all the governments in the world. he also criticized western censorship of russian state media. now, former british labor party leader jeremy corbin said in an interview on lebanese tv this week, that weapons won't bring peace. then the world woke up and suddenly realised that cross shewn ukraine all the world's biggest grey exporters and something has to be done. so they came up to an agreement, and i hope it holds to export grain through odessa and through the boss for a straight to the rest of the world. this is a good move, but at the same time, putting more and more arms since ukraine isn't going to bring about peace. the 1st lady of ireland, sabina higgins, called for peace talks and a ceasefire between russia and ukraine in a letter published by the irish times. and then said that she was dismayed that she was attacked for it,
9:27 am
and particularity for saying that both sides for some responsibility, instead of placing all the blame on russia, despite their noisy blustery rhetoric about more weapons for ukraine and the need for keith to win, militarily european union countries are feeling the pinch of their own sanctions. former german chancellor, gerhard schroeder pointed out the obvious solution to his own country self imposed suffering. the simplest solution would be to start up the operation of no stream to which has been completed. it really gets tight regarding gus, we have this pipeline and with both pipelines together, there would be no supply problem for germany. industrial households, she don't want to use knowledge trim to any help to face the consequences. it's such a stunningly simple, readily available remedy for the dire circumstances that lay ahead if he, you maintains its current course. not that ukrainian officials seem to care too much about the suffering of citizens in europe or apparently their own. they are activating various emissaries with theses that the terrorist stayed allegedly,
9:28 am
once in a go ations. it is simply disgusting when former leaders of powerful states with european values work for russia, which is fighting against these values. unsurprisingly, nato secretary general is doubling down. unquestionably effective if not flatow counterproductive. ideological postures to the detriment of pragmatic solutions. we are providing a lot of support, but we need to do even more and be prepared for the long haul. therefore, we're also now in close contact and working closely with the defense industry to produce and deliver more of different types of ammunition, weapons, and capabilities. nothing would make the military industrial complex happier or richer than a long hall military conflict. and across the pond in washington, the war hawks are only too happy to continue. exploiting the opportunity to have ukraine willingly do its dirty work. as long as the way up ukraine, with the weapons in need and economic support,
9:29 am
they will fight to the last person. in my view, the globally sleeve or a strategy, escalades and prolonged war, and decreases the chance of peace without american russian goals. that of you will never be peace in ukraine. it's long pastime to ask why those advocating for peace and negotiations are being attacked by the western establishment. while those who benefit from continued fighting hardly raised an eyebrow, have the news to stand for you regarding the situation and garza is well on the islamic jihad movement have reportedly agreed to implement a sci fi at 8 p. m. local time. later on sunday, as according to roy says, how earlier egypt was said to be undertaking efforts to mediate a peaceful solution to the military conflict, which of course has claimed the lines of any 31 people in garza, just in the past 3 days. will keep you updated on all the latest. thanks for
9:30 am
joining us here in austin international. we're back at the top of the eye with all the latest news updates with welcome to all the parties that efforts to isolate last call salad to west comparing it to apartheid style south after claiming that depression were to have its own, nelson mandela government, which to be ostracized, and the country's economy. boy what it is that a viable historical lesson to be applied again. perhaps it.
