a with a breaking news on our t ukraine shells. this upper rogia nuclear power plant, once again, according to local authorities, just days after it attacked this same site with rocket launchers and artillery russian lead forces take full control of the key ton of pesky near dan, yet scales the military advance. there continues in the republic. so coming out, roger waters speaks to r t days. after an earlier interview to cnn by the legendary rock star, he told us was significantly edited all the compensation i had, for instance,

about the grant was heavily edited my interview with michael was cut into little bits and stuff together to make me look like canadian. i'm not make it on does india? it refers to mark 75 years of independence from british rule on monday, but also the partition of the country into india and pakistan. we vary the tragic feel of one. my family was torn apart by them. it's been 75 years. i remember those days that they, when we were separated and you never came back, only your memories remain with us after mid day, la pas midnight in perth and 7 and leaving here in moscow. welcome to the global use wind up in our t. i'm, you know, we begin with breaking news, ukrainian forces. how shell does upper rogia and nuclear power plant, along with thermal power station,

according to local officials. earlier in the week, the printing army attacked the territory of the nuclear plants with multiple rocket launchers and heavy artillery, sparking fears of another potential chernobyl like disaster. it comes as local authorities of the neighboring her san region sounded the alarm over there are hydro power plant saying it's working in a free emergency condition. the plant is interconnected to the nuclear side in question and interrupting its work could also potentially lead to disastrous consequences. earlier our correspondent in don bos, eager shit down off, told me more. because the per oscar nuclear power plant is being shown relentlessly and well quite religiously by the ukrainian side today is yet another instance of their attempts to well the cause damage to the facility. now it has been shown before. it has been sheldon, literally hours before a before russia cooled. i an emergency meeting with the un security council before

literally hours before that meeting happened. the power plant had been shelled and on the 5th on the 7th of august as well. so it is a target for the ukrainian says, this is according to the russian side, even though ukraine denies allegations and is saying something along the lines that russia is, is shelling its own positions, is shelling its own infrastructure. so something that most has clearly brushed off, and indeed speaking of the consequences, they can be absolutely devastating experts they have kind of calculated the potential radius of the nuclear fall out. if the nuclear power plant was indeed to be destroyed. and interestingly enough, ukraine was to be, had the hardest, it was too bad the most of the impacts effective the entire country. you would have to go through the nuclear fallout, bella ro, spots of russia as well. and depending on the wins, in fact, it's hard to predict as to how far and how and what direction the nuclear,

this nuclear fallout cloud will travel figure what also looks like to be a significant development and update. today, the russian defense ministry said that the key ton of pesky is under russian control. can you take us through the implications of that? and indeed, what else? the m o. d had to say. indeed, it is a big moment for the troops indeed. and that the people's republic for the russian forces, the little town of pesky, it is quite small and it is just outside the city of them. that's the capital of the then that's people's republic. it's about maybe a 2030 minute drive away from the capital base levy. and right now the russian ministry of defense, they have indeed announced that it has been liberated, quote unquote, that it is under the control of it. and that people's republic forces and the russian forces as well. it is a key strategic point because basically it's a gateway to capturing some of the smaller towns like the town of, of day of and so one for a long years, the ukranian troops, they kind of,

they were beefing up the defenses in all these towns, including the town of pesky and therefore to cations absolutely formidable, that they had as concrete as tunnels, as miles of trenches. basically those fortification, they can withstand a lot of damage and they provide an excellent cover to the brain in forces that so the capturing of this village is a great milestone with pesky under control. and the russia has its hand, hands untied and they can basically any sort of offensive in the direction of any other major stronghold. again, like a day of car will be much easier creator of they don't bus inside a new side. crystal neil leaves the west blaming russia for the shelling is absurd . it's completely under moscow's control. this kind of disaster will not be limited to the ukrainian or russian territory are these kind of disaster can have

consequences on sa sense and solvents of kilometers away from the origin. the, all the waste they are supporting ukraine. so they cannot admit, typically that this you want to country, which is risking the life of millions of people by shilling and nuclear plant. they cannot say that they say that then people will be asking. but who are we supporting? who are we financing? we're, we're, is going our money. i mean, i mean that there will be a lot of uncomfortable questions coming from the public. so they prefer to see that russia is shalise itself and its own troops and the to read through which is under its control. so it's easier for them to learn niecy, meaning nice line than to me, the truth. roger waters, the co founder of the legendary rock group, pink floyd, made no few headlines this week. it came after an interview he gave to cnn,

where he rejected the western narrative on some of the most pressing issues of the day, including the reasons behind the ukraine conflict on tensions over taiwan. or r t is also spoken freely with the musician up by thought. sit down on plenty more . besides i believe on youtube, you know, they've still got a, the whole interview. ok. so you can see that it was heavily edited, which is a shame because the whole interview is only 18 minutes long. i've seen a ed 7 minutes, 7 or 8 minutes, said the cut out about 10 minutes. i don't, i mean that a little bit of judicious editing is cool, but all the conversation i had, for instance, by the ukraine was heavily edited and, and so didn't really represent my real views. but it, obviously it was to their advantage that my interview with michael was cotton to

little bets and stuck together to make me look like an idiot. oh, i'm not in it. there are very few places where i can get any air time to express my views and the views of all the other fighters for the peace. anybody who doesn't tell the government line as a troublemaker, i'm proud to be a troublemaker, the troublemakers, the important people zalinski was. he was elected as the president of the ukraine after the qu, in 2014 on a platform of solidifying and hearing to the minsk agreements to mince 2 and also a bring to end the civil war that was already have things. and of course, the minute he was elected, somebody put a gun to his head, i had so many changed his mind and didn't do any of that. when the law of that 73 percent of the pregnancy voted for him,

presumably wanted those agreements implemented so that they didn't have to have a wall and it could be stopped in my view to morrow. all it needs is for the americans to come to the table and say, okay, let's go with the men sc agreements and then it would be over. i have a dog in the rice. my father died in italy fighting the 3rd right? no, i, i, i have a deep sleep vested emotion, interest. what happens to my brothers and sisters why are we in a state of perpetual war? because nancy pelosi wants us to pay and she wanted to apply and posturing, taking huge risks, completely ignoring the agreements that were made. the one china re agreements made in 19711972 after the nixon busy in 72. it was absolutely great that there's

only one china and it's the peoples republic and, and it's the hold of china. they want to rule the world. that is what is so dangerous about american foreign policy. we should be looking at this in a global fashion where all brothers and sisters, we all come from africa. we're like, cousins. we should be embracing one another, not blowing one another to be they don't think like that. and that's partly because it's sort of enshrined in their political ethos. the only thing that matters is the bottom line and on like cnn. as roger ledges, we're not applying censorship by cutting out any inconvenient parts. you can watch the full version of the interview with pink floyd co funder roger waters tried saturday. here in our on monday, india will mark 75 years of independence from british rule. an anniversary also

shared with want for many was a dark chapter in history. the division of the country known as partition its all british india, broken up into the separate states of india and pakistan. the move led to bloody clashes on the vast displacement of civilians are ti ranger and sharma has been looking back at the time by a one month personal and tragic story. a midnight oh, when the in yeah. when a week later, you don't a moment come rich, come lunch around in his study. when we ship out on the new, when the new gin and with the 70 sizes the go to send sees of british rules came to an end. but one of the most diverse sub continents in the world was now divided into 2 hindu majority. india and muslim homeland to pakistan. this british lead blonde,

resulted in the biggest forest migration of the 20th century, owed a 1000000 people lost their lives in what became to known as the partition. my grandparents were amongst the millions of people who made that journey from across the border during partition. i couldn't get to know their stories and struggles as i was quite young when i lost them a chance of hearing 1st hand accounts of people who had similar experiences, maybe on a wellbeing journey. do you remember that day? what happened on 15th august 1947. when the partition happened, we were here in the same village, the same district of good westport. i remember when the line was drawn, but it still wasn't decided on which side my village would fall. at that time. 75 years ago, there was no tv or radio. only one person to the next village had a radio. and on the 15th of august, thousands of people from different villages gathered at the home of this person

with the radio as the fate of our district, whether it will be part of india or pakistan, was to be decided amend from our village. i also went there to hear the decision and he came and told us that we would remain in india. i still remember the day very clearly. the partition has been harvest on the northern state of punjab, during about millions of hindus seeks and muslims who had lived together in harmony for generations over the decades that followed some last contact. are those managed to maintain their friendship? believe raj, who's now 92 goals, his childhood muslim friend, shaw hum across the border as well. i'm well, a cool my king. it's been 75 years. i remember those days that they, when we were separated and you never came back on your memories for me. 75 years ago, molly raj, until hom, lived in the same neighborhood until

a man me border physically separate and then they all left. there was law amongst us and we believed like brothers. the hate was bred by politics and the british, but it did ruins and sharma arti, but job berlin's announced it suspended its involvement in the un peacekeeping mission. to molly, after local authorities in the country refuse to let a german military plane enter its aerospace, those in power. and molly have not allowed the u. n. minnes my mission, access to its air space. a plant rotation of personnel is therefore not possible. that has effects on our engagement, given that the security of our soldiers has the highest priority. i applaud this decision. we have long wish that the security of our territory in the air would be guaranteed exclusively by the melee and armed forces. we've always said that, and that's what we wanted to some background. in february france,

the 9 states soldiers would leave molly after 9 years there that came after thousands of anti porous protesters took to the streets, calling for a french withdrawal. and in support of ongoing russian military assistance to the country. after that polite germany promised a it was drawing down its participation in military programs there too, but still continued to provide trips to the u. n's operations in the west african nation. now lecturer a researcher at the university of paris. eunice bell for law believes the western presence in the region has significantly weakens the african region in many areas. is currently the, i believe the western countries of suddenly serious he failed at molly. since the goals outlined at the very beginning by france, than by the un multi dimensional integrated stabilization mission and molly, which acted alongside france and other european countries, were not achieved terrorism was not to face. it was not the intervention of western

countries main. the european ones has weakened the role of african states, not only and molly, but also in the entire hell region. as a result, there is now an increase in the influence of johanna scripts, not only and molly, but also in the entire a hell region as well. as near the guinea region is obvious that there are no attempts at democratic changes in these countries. in particular, through partially organized kuda. tar western countries needs to have a clear political vision, develop partnerships with various parties and forces that are present in the region, in particular, in africa. russia does not have a negative image, like, for example, france. secondly, russia's participation takes place in accordance with an agreement, signed with the military department of molly. this is not the 1st time russia has undertaken military cooperation with african countries, as well known that russia has good relations with many african countries. oh, okay. know the story to tell you about today. estonia has approved up ban on russian citizens entering the country if they've been issued a shingle visa by the republic. they come for now still enter with these as issued

by other states. we discussed these restrictions on other you policies with russia's representative to the block. latimer, she's off. ah, look, i say it said yesterday statements of european politicians. they contradict common sense and numerous political and legal obligations of the you, though, looks like racism and discrimination. and the fight against discrimination is the foundation that the you itself and the western well posed as the foundation of democracy. as for the closure of borders for people who have shannon visas issued by european countries, this from a diplomatic point of view is nonsense. at the moment, the visa code is not provide for the complete ban on the issuance of short term visas. the introduction of such a restriction on the basis of nationality would mean a step towards restrictions on race skin color. sexual orientation east state has the right to issue or not to issue a visa to a citizen of some country. that is, it is an individual decision. if such a practice is introduced in relation to all citizens of a country,

it is unpractical and unrealistic because there will always be a humanitarian problems. interestingly, in some e u countries, they immediately remembered russian dissidence. the opponents of the russian leadership that still live in the you, i think is more of an emotional decision. ah, luca, senator, this problem causes serious concern around the world. the discussion that took place at the un security council on russia's initiative is a clear confirmation of this reaction of european countries was inadequate. relevant european commission, if an energy drew attention to the shelling of the territory of the nuclear power plot, and blame the irresponsible behavior of the russian forces. this position is inadequate . i do not think that b a u is the kind of structure that is able to deal with the nucleus safety issues professionally. there is the i. e, a for this, the head spoke the security council and confirmed his intention to personally had the inspection mission to the plant. russia has been calling on it to do this for a long time. therefore, statements coming from western capitals that russia should be required to allow them to inspect the problem is not in russia, but in the key of regime,

which continues shelly by creating a potential threat to the safety of the i a e a represent. it is also required that they go there through the territory of ukraine, though they don't explain how to organize it in practice. ah, yet, almost to just ordinary europeans should wait for the consequences of decisions that the e u has been making for several years. it won't be that long to wait autumn a winter, just around the corner. we'll see what the energy balance is going to look like, how the food security issue will be solved. they're trying to blame russia for these problems, but they are ready to blame. russia has long been warning europe, these issues long before the military operation. i think that the way to normalize the situation lies and changing the use political cause. russia has never been the initiator of restrictive sanctions measures. gonna say latvia on the stony i have pulled down from the cooperation group known as the 16 plus one trade organization . it consists of china and countries. within europe. explaining their departure,

the foreign ministries of both state said they will seek relations based on mutual benefit and respect for international law. in 2012, beijing launched the 16 plus one initiative in an attempt to expand business and investment opportunities in europe. lafayette, on destiny a follow another baltic nation with you in here, which accident from the group last year. china has not yet commented on the de coupling will asian refers analysts, victor, ga, believes lafayette, and estonia will regret the decisions. i think it reflects that these 3 body countries really, 1st of all, think too much of themselves. they are very, very small economies on the global scale. and whatever they do will not make a big ripple in international economic and trade relations. all the other hatch. let me one, these 3 baltic countries that it is wise to be hostile to one of the largest they

call them is in the world. after all. time is the largest economy by purchasing power parity and trauma. the 2nd largest economy by official, eccentric next only to the united states and china is the largest, the treating nation with more than $130.00 nations in the world. it will be actually in the problem, the minds of interest of countries like the old as tonia, the doing the m and b, m to work together with china and other countries in eastern or central european redo, full mutual benefit. international cooperation will definitely be mutually beneficial. however, the way these 3 baltic countries handled themselves in dealing with china being boiled coffee. but china, east europe can and said europe, him, cooperation is wise. i'm sure they will regret this wrong. thank you.

they make your right now. could donald trump be facing jail? bounced the speculation running rob stateside, amid allegations the former us president could have violated the u. s. espionage act. it follows a controversial f. b, i rayed on his residence in florida to retrieve, quote, sensitive government documents. some of the papers are alleged to been marked as top secret of mr. trump claims. busy all the material in his possession was the classified. the f, b i. agents reportedly took around 20 boxes of items from the mar, illegal residence. the agents collected 4 sets of top secret documents, 3 sets of secret papers and 3 sets of confidential files. according to report some of the classified documents, the f, b i agent software related to nuclear weapons. donald trump vehemently denies that on has demanded the files be released publicly as soon as possible. number one, it was all declassified. number 2,

they didn't need to seize anything they could have had at any time they wanted without playing politics and breaking into mar lago nuclear weapons issue was a hoax, just like russia, russia, russia was a hoax to impeachment were hoax. the mew investigation was a hoax. and much more same sleazy people involved in the got pretty deep the f b i officer is broken to mr. tom safe and his south florida home as well, with the search appearing to be focused on material that he took with him upon leaving the oval office, radio host and political commentator, curry harris and leaves the f. b. i's move now opened the door for the same treatment to be discharged to other previous leaders. if you could go after a u. s. president, 1st time ever. that means you can now go back in time to all us presidents. and what a fun time that is going to be. so i think this is more of hocus pocus, a lot a circus. because the last thing you want is to go through richard nixon's grave.

examine the body and find god knows what, including obama still alive, including a lot of others. clinton still alive. we're talking the 15 boxes, then another $25.00 that $35.00 boxes. what's in them? we don't know. it's up to merrick garland, to release that, but he hasn't yet the f b i is not allowed on its own to release that. so we can only speculate is this stuff on nuclear weapons is that marilyn rose, brazil, we're opperation northwoods, that attempted to come up with a reason to invade cuba back in the 1960 s or is it porn? i don't know. kerry harrison, not the president of the italian football club, napoli has been accused of racism and discrimination by the confederation of african football. that's after he said the serial giants will no longer buy african players if they refuse to sign a waiver, stating that they won't play in

a major international tournament back. oh, my god, i don't know maybe enough with african guy unless they renounce on playing the african come nation. i will not buy them anymore for that reason. we pay their salaries to send them all over the world to play for others, right in the middle of the season guy. okay, let's just go through this. the african cup of nations begun $957.00. it runs every 2 years, starting generally in january, which is right in the middle of the european league season. some players have previously returned to their clubs after the tournament injured. no reaction to the words of natalie's president came to the 2nd foss, with footballs governing body in africa, demanding its european counterpart, take action. confederation of african football is appalled by the irresponsible and unacceptable remarks made by napoli, president, mr. elio de la, rented on african players in the africa cup of nations. ca f, therefore, urges union of european football associations to initiate disciplinary investigation against him. you cannot speak about african national teams like this

. you have to have respect like you have for the european national teams. a sports journalist on media commented or mama to gay believes greed on self interest, dominant modern football game show every boy anyway, if snorkel, surprise. do we see $0.05 behave in a sense english in can you look up to to do you have any dental petition at national level up club level? meaning that all the players clearly won't be no more to complain about it because money is going into their pocket, it doesn't play years. you're going to do a lot in the success on partition. unfortunately, to day, oh, good news. i really need some out. anything it's

about it's about nicholas and african players are teaching them a lesson for the, for the, for the most people. an ongoing conflict in ukraine sits one sector, most of all the defense industry. and it's american firms right now, earning record profits from a crisis half a world away from washington, or a documentary next those, the sums. ah, [000:00:00;00]

ah, [000:00:00;00] a shape out becomes the advocate and engagement. it was the trail. when so many find themselves, well,

the part we choose to look so common ground, ah, pray. well, never be a victory for russia. ukraine war is a proxy war. this is a war between russia and the united states. as alon are made, it comes to last. you can then in carbon dioxide, america forces urine, you're not in your engage in conflict with russian forces. the american forces are here and a fan. nato allies for certain nato escalates even more in the special military operations. become a war door when you put dell, sips of girls at dinner, showing that older belgium is my idea that i see your thrust protecting costliest yet through me with so you sleep. he showed me. can you stop for the minute? our 1st with almost there with them let's you, when you less a homely,

just don't finish them in your sewage near us. he cooked the cold ha february 2007. that amy of hooton's munich speech is a milestone and contemporary history. many consider his famous address of the security conference to be a turning point in relations between moscow. on the west with president putin smoke about major geopolitical issues in no uncertain terms and harshly criticized the uni polo well, model u. s. foreign policy, unjustified use of force against other states. that's just not a scholarship in you. me, me, it nickel. what machine? yeah. what did you say? so my only answer ellicott is between you because a bus missed you are,
