10:02 pm
a before russia cooled an emergency meeting with the un security council 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 forces. this is according to the russian side, just like it was super rules. if the attacks of ukrainian army continue a new killer catastrophe could happen at any moment. in this case, the entire responsibility for this will fall on the western sponsors of key if even though ukraine denies allegations and is saying something along the lines that russia is, is shelling its own positions, is a shelling its own infrastructure. so something that most or has clearly brushed off, and indeed, speaking of the consequences, they can be absolutely devastating huge territories in ukraine. russia and other countries will be under the threat of radioactive contamination. the real scale of a nuclear disaster at the plant is impossible to even imagine if for the nuclear
10:03 pm
power plant was indeed to be destroyed. and interestingly enough, ukraine was to be hit the hardest. it was too bad the most of the impact effectively, the entire country would have to go through the nuclear fallout. bella roost parts of russia as well. and depending on the winds, in fact, it's hard to predict as to how far and how and in what direction the nuclear, this nuclear fallout cloud will travel, eastern europe, western europe could be impacted as well. if you crane continues this highly irresponsible behavior. well, for weeks, russia has been calling for the international atomic energy agency to come and visit the power plant. but the i. e. h chiefs stated that the last un security council meeting that quote, there is no immediate threat to the nuclear plant. now, while the u. s representative put the blame fully on russia and demanded a full withdraw russian troops who actually secured the plot and march and helping guarding it. ever since the cause of the situation that is if reaching facility is
10:04 pm
not a mystery. it is another tragic result of the russian federation decision to further invade. it's sovereign neighbor, ukraine, russia alone created risks, and it can eliminate those risks now by withdrawing from ukraine. so turning a blind eye to why the conflict in the ukraine stop, it is just covering up the west real intentions. now that's according to former us senator richard black. right now, there are such enormous force from the west, from the us, from nato, from the united kingdom. there's tremendous pressure from the western media to never say anything bad about ukraine and to make up any kind of buying that you can say, against the russians. that's becoming
10:05 pm
a little bit frayed. pete, the information is beginning to leak out. and people are beginning to say, you know, wait a minute. it wasn't russia. they started this war. it was, they tell they started the war because they forced brushes back to the wall where the president, he had no alternative but to defend the sovereign territory of russia. and he had to launch an attack to do that in order to preempt the attack. ukraine was planning against the don bass. president joe biden's policies have been dismissed as having little to do with the mach chrissy in an interview for the u. s . congresswoman palsy gathered cars doubt that washington's actions in ukraine actually have the country's best interests at heart. despite their lectures and their crocodile tears, it's never been about morality. it's not about the people of ukraine or protecting
10:06 pm
democracy. this is about regime change in russia and exploiting this war to strengthen nato and feed the military industrial complex joe biden. it's even about bringing about quote, a new world order, but it's not the 1st time chelsea gavin has been critical of biden's policies on fox news. she also pinned europe's energy crisis on the u. s. president, suggesting that similar repercussions could be on the cards for the average, everyday american and we discussed govern stones with earl arrest usage of the eurasia. and she was exactly right. she, her statement as far as that, this is not about ukraine. it's not about european values, it's not about democracy. it's about regime change. it's about containment of russia and ultimately regime change. and ultimately, i would say dismantling of russia as well. i think similar is happening. we've got
10:07 pm
another play going on with taiwan and china also filthy gabbert, carl mcgregor, grand greenwald, the whole list of them. unfortunately, they're not widely heard in most to the media is completely controlled. it's projecting whatever the policy of the government is adding. if you listen, sam s n b c or c, and then it's like somebody wrote a script from them and they're leaving, you don't even have basically the saying the same thing over and over again. it's healthy gabbert right on the money and has hit completely correct in her statement . on monday, india marx, 75 years of independence from british rule and of us are you also linked to a rather divisive chapter in its history known as the partition. that's when british india was broken up into the separate states of india and pakistan at the move led to the vast displacement of people and bloody clashes on the newly drawn
10:08 pm
border. so what is that around? john shot him now takes a look back at a time via one man's personal story. a midnight when the thief in. yeah, when a week later, you don't a moment come rich, come much around in his study. when we did both on moving to the new, when the new gin and with 70 sizes, the go to st 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 forced migration of the 20th century, owed a 1000000 people lost their lives in what became to known as the partition. my
10:09 pm
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 struggled 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 whelming 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 meant from our village. i also went there to hear the decision
10:10 pm
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 nub and state of the job during about millions of hindus seeks and muslims who had lived together in harmony for generations over the decades that followed. some last conduct. are those managed to maintain their friendship? believe raj, who's now 92 goals, his childhood muslim friend show hom, 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. only your memories remain 75 years ago. believe raj until han lived in the same neighborhood until a man me border physically separate and then they all left. there was love amongst us. we lived like brothers. the hate was bred by politics and the british,
10:11 pm
but it did ruins and sharma arti, but job berlin's announced it has suspended his involvement in the u. n's peacekeeping mission to molly, off the local authorities in the country, refused to allow a german military playing to enter its aspects those in power. and molly have not allowed the you and 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 wished that the security of our territory in the air would be guaranteed exclusively by the malian armed forces. we've always said that, and that's what we wanted. in february, franz announced its soldiers would be leaving molly after 9 years there. this came as a result of thousands of protesters. he took to the molly and streets quoting, for a french withdraw, well, actually supporting russian assistance at the same time. after that, pull out,
10:12 pm
germany announced it would draw down as a participation in military programs that to but still continue to provide troops to the un operations. and the west african nation were such at the university of powers. 8 unit bell fella says the western presence in the region has significantly weakened the continent. is you currently believe that western countries have suddenly serious he failed in molly? since the goals outlined at the very beginning by france than by the u. n's multi dimensional integrated stabilization mission and molly, which acted alongside fronts and other european countries, were not achieved. terrorism was not to face it was that the intervention of western countries, mainly european ones, has weakened the role of african states. not only, and molly, but also in the tire sa hell region. as a result, there is now an increase in the influence of johannes groups. 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
10:13 pm
particular, through partially organized kuda, top western countries needs have a clear political vision, develop partnerships with various parties and forces that are present in the region in particular with russia, which has significant influence. notice have clear goals and priorities to ensure, 1st of all, security, and then to address governance issues and create institutions. brushes involvement is very different from the west's festival, because russia is not connected with africa by its colonial past. 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. is well known that russia has good relations with many african countries. a 3 day conflict between israel and islamic jihad group has come to an end. the violence claimed the lives of $44.00 garza residents, including 15 children of the un high commissioner for human rights voiced alarm over the number of kids killed during the israeli military operation and
10:14 pm
a modern those responsible be held to account. here's how the gods skyline looked shortly before the truce was implemented. the i, let's show you the, the off them off open israeli air strike when a residential neighborhood. hundreds of buildings were damaged or destroyed, and garza during the attacks. so we got feedback from the locals inside the 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, such as 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
10:15 pm
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. but southern israel came on the rocket fire as well, with many people forced to hide in ball. michelle and fellow vascular and i'm is dead. these are mix sure how group also targeted positive jerusalem. in total, they fired more than $1000.00 rockets over no serious casualties. were reported, but we got reaction from the streets of israel on the violence and the truce the fire is just a big bluff considering all that happens here was the rocket. if we didn't have the defense system, thank god. today we would have been a 2nd train. i really hope the fire will last long, and that we are at least able to live a bit quietly. come or never gave anyone anything. good. so peter, something big. and i really want our kids and the people of israel to feel secure
10:16 pm
in our country. meanwhile, a pro palestinian activist has criticized social media platforms for binding his post morning, a child killed in israel's reason to attacks and gaza. a british rappa low key says his post of a 5 year old palestinian girl killed in a recent attack on the gaza strip. was quote chateau band of the met her platforms, including facebook and instagram mark the post as violent a local claims. the content was censored after an alert from the israeli cyber unit . as we understand, the girl was playing outside when she, when she was hit by shrapnel would so so injured her 7 year old brother. she became the 1st victim of israel's the latest bombing campaign of gaza. now facebook in his defense has previously blamed artificial intelligence from mistakenly binding similar content. palestinian activists claim that since the thought of 2022, the number of content, the amount of content take down request submitted by israel has increased by 800
10:17 pm
percent israel. meantime, as commanded. its siva unit in the past has been successful in getting online content removed. and social media advocate mono, dia says, palestinians voices are being silenced, to cover up human rights violations syncing policy. invoices and silencing palestinian voices had abandoned us answering our content is affecting how we can share our story is how we can command that crime violations that people are exposed to on the ground. our narrative is being censored and lined, and this contributes to silencing our voice is to typing us. this has a bigger impact whenever, like we are talking with the international audience. whenever we're talking with a group palestinian audience who are trying to get to know what's happening there on the ground, they can get the full picture because our, our content is basically sensor. so whenever we are trying to share stories of policy and who were coded using those attacks, it's also since it's from the social media companies. and this means that this is
10:18 pm
like a contributing to sensing our voices and preventing us from documenting to human rights violations. that we are exposed to the u. s. a. secretary of state assures of the u. s. is not competing with anyone in the sub saharan region. all of this went on to south africa, the dnc, everyone earlier in the week that he does point a finger to russia for the global food crisis is, was, it comes on the heels of russian rushes for minutes or so your level of receiving a very warm welcome in a number of countries on that continent. we've seen the repercussions of rushes worn ukraine, which are felt across the planet. and especially across africa in rising food and energy prices. what we seek most of all is a true partnership between the united states and africa. we don't want an unbalanced or transactional relationship. and our commitment to a stronger partnership with africa is not about trying to outdo anyone else. well,
10:19 pm
coinciding with the visit, the white house, i released the document detailing it's brian new strategy towards subsaharan regions. the plan promotes us involvement and investment in african nations policies, including issues like pandemic, climate change. food security blanket refutes his tours. an attempt to counter russia in china's growing ties with the continent, a report released by the white house on us strategy in the region. however, it does seem to suggest otherwise. the people's republic of china by contrast, see the region as an important arena to challenge the rules based international order. and we can us relations with african peoples and governments. russia views the region of the permissive environment for paris, staples, and private military companies, often fermenting instability for strategic and financial benefit. and while the u. s. h, a continuous presence in the region, china now stands south africa, the biggest trading partner. moscow is trade with the country is also on the rise
10:20 pm
with monthly exports from russia in january, going to more than 4 times out of the same time last year. as the us secretary of state, try to convince south africa dentist have a ties with russia and china and south africa, top diplomat. rose's concerns that those who are using the countries natural resources are actually the ones the stabilizing, the region. this fear that we exist under some push is i think a totally are really, are unfounded. a belief in the relationship that we have with eva country is also a concern about countries. and that have mineral interests in african countries are not there as a destabilizing force. so i think we need to look at the full plethora of problems that give rise to insecurity, bad governance. and the absence of democracy on the african continent is not a one country problem and it's a brand new strategy. washington. also sites are long and proud history of
10:21 pm
supporting africa and we discussed their strategy with jo aldwin, the host of the conservative bailey podcast. i don't think the u. s. has ever recited the sovereignty of other nations. and when they talk about the stabilization, they look no further than themselves. and the sad part about with the us says it's just a bunch of rhetoric and look, i'm, i'm an american and i'm proud to be an american. but the apparatus within the us government has long been a d, stabilizing force and almost putting at, you know, african a place where they can grow, that can't excel at the same rate, that other countries across the world are growing. and that has a lot more to do with their natural resources and how they can get access to those resources. so no, i don't believe they respect the sovereignty of any decision that they make. and i and i, i'm actually fearful that it's going to become a tug of war and the people of those african agent, 54 nations, are the ones that are going to suffer and the african nation. firstly, south africa does not trust the united states. many nations don't trust united states,
10:22 pm
i don't think anything united states does right now will be seen as anything other than grandstanding and making empty promises that they will mirror into the future not be able to deliver on this week. some european countries have been discussing new ways to sanction russia. the brought consider barring russians from getting shang again, visas to europe. it follows as a number of politicians cold on the you to deny russians any access to europe. as long as the conflict in ukraine continues. and moscow slammed the initiative as at risk of phobic saying has been 80 years since sentiments similar to these recently remarked by finland and estonia were lost, voiced on the continent. it's not right did. at the same time as rushes to waging an aggressive, brutal war of aggression in europe, russians can live a normal life travel in europe, be tourists. it is not right. stop they shoot to receive just to russians. visit in europe is a privilege, not the human rights are true from russia, shut down,
10:23 pm
it means washing and contradict each of these is neighbors. to russia carried the belgian time to an tourist from russia now. well, last fear for its part has made a contentious statement against russia. the baltic country declared russia as a state sponsor of terrorism, claiming moscow intentionally target civilians in ukraine. the russian foreign ministry has lashed out at the motion, defining it as a provocation, and saying, well, that could be a case of tit for tat. another hostile action by lot fin lawmakers fits perfectly into the anti russian hysteria unleashed by riga. after all, it is well known that the pathological russo phobia of lot fears, ruling elite, has already caused serious economic and social issues in this baltic country, bringing down the standard of living for its population. and its only getting worse . well, as some in europe have noticed the blocks policies towards russia, one of them, the austrian presidential candidate, a gerald graphs told us that brussels tried to shift blame for its quote, skits
10:24 pm
a frantic policy on russia. earlier. he also broke down the situation for local media, seeming to thanks, the voice came through mail, holmes latoya is shamika burns, the board kent gas mail hotel, this home desk, and some younger guys, all my company in a sense of a you cannot do without energy on one hand and then complain about the lack of energy and fear, black out on the other, speak of the devil, and the devil shows up that a skis, a freak. and that is what currently characterizes to european elite skis of freedom, yet they are in favor of sanctions against russia. on the one hand there waging their economic war against russia because of military conflict, that in reality does not affect europe in any way. and on the other hand, they complain about the reaction to the economic war. namely, the lack of gas guess is not only used for heating, but guess from russia, which we have received for the last 50 years,
10:25 pm
is also used to secure the electricity supply. this means that if you want to secure the supply of electricity on the european continent, then we must also an economic sanctions against russia and try to restore a reasonably satisfactory solution for the people through diplomacy die. let's get some opinion now from all to contributor rachel moss. and now she says that europe is only just starting to experience the effects of its own sanctions. it seems like a slow motion car crash here in france already. for example, we're seeing public officials using the engineer gas shortage as an excuse to reduce public services. now, public swimming pools, both near paris and in the south of france, have made news recently when local governments said that they were shutting them down for the rest of the summer to save money. the mare of cavalry. yes. which is in the south of france said the high costs now mean that she has to choose between purchases like organic food for kids, school lunches,
10:26 pm
or the pool. so the pool got the axe during one of the hottest summers on record. so you can see the ball is already rolling on rationing, even in anticipation of a shortage later this year. and we haven't even begun to see where the knock on effects might pop up. now to make matters worse, norway, which is otherwise known as europe's battery, produces hydro electric energy that it typically exports to the you and to the u. k . but now it's saying that because it's lacking water because of the dry and, and heat. it now feels that it will be able to step up and help with exports this year. and just when you think that things couldn't possibly get a worse, the financial times is now reporting that european utility companies like france's energy giant o. d, f are sounding the alarm over radio, active contamination of liquefied natural gas deliveries from britain to the e. u. i originally sourced from the u. s. and cutter. the problem could to
10:27 pm
cause pipelines between britain and the e to close. and the new york times is reporting that the looming energy crisis is causing germany to reconsider and nuclear energy, a power source over which berlin has absolutely lambasted paris for maintaining. so i guess the better send gret a tumor over there to yell at them. maybe perhaps she can beat zalinski in a screaming match because really all of economic and environmental harm, including the refusal to fire up to nordstrom to pipeline, which let's face, it's just sitting there, gathering dust is being done in the name of ukraine. i say yes, the government rules it out. we face difficult months ahead. but it is clear that we stand firmly on the side of ukraine and we stand behind the sanctions that we agree together with the european union in the international community. and it's noticed europeans who are suffering, but also folks in the global south. europe is also apparently dragging along
10:28 pm
countries like pakistan and bangladesh behind the energy price roller coaster. the fact that emerging countries in south asia, like pakistan, for example, are currently experiencing one power blackout after the other is also a consequence of europe's failed energy policy. in its attempt to free itself from its dangerous dependency on russia. record speed, the u. s. causing massive turbulence on the global energy markets, which hit poor countries particularly hard, but at least europe is united right? well, maybe not counting those opting out from the gas cuts or poland, which wants the rest of europe to keep their hands off polish gas. russian president vladimir putin may not be quaking in his boots at all this stellar competence, but europeans sure might be as winter approaches. the effect of joining us her analogy international nearly half past 5 in the morning hero moscow, covering the top stories of the week and of to day. appreciate your company,
10:29 pm
you can catch up on ortiz telegram channels. also the channels on odyssey and the gap as well. ah ah ah look forward to talking to you all. that technology should work for people. a
10:30 pm
robot must obey the orders given it by human beings, except where such orders at conflict with the 1st law show your identification. we should be very careful about artificial intelligence. at that point obviously is too great truck rather than fair with take on various char, i mean with artificial intelligence. real. somebody with a robot must protect its own existence with ah, the 2nd world war i think to millions of people during the conflict.
