hello and welcome to our to international with this our top news stories from the around the world. happy to have you join us live from moscow to wherever you're watching us from. i'm pure ela isabel. you korean troops have showed a nuclear waste storage facility at the embattled zap, rose and nuclear power plant nearly destroying a radioactive container. meanwhile, western media continues to blame russia for the damage and claims that moscow is trying to steal energy from the plant destined for ukraine. russia has dismissed those accusations as groundless. russia is now being accused of stealing ukrainian energy supplies. the capabilities of 3rd party analysts, hired by western propagandists are bordering on the absurd one so called specialist is a former employee of the u. s embassy in chia who claims russia is seeking to seize electricity from this approach. nuclear plant cut off ukrainian consumers and sell those power supplies at the currently storing market prices by destroying energy
1:02 am
infrastructure. the chief regime is putting millions of people in europe in danger of a nuclear disaster with washington turning a blind eye. the power plant is the largest in europe, and this shelly has sparked fears of a tragedy worse than chernobyl. russian forces took over the facility in march as they swept through ukraine's east at the start of their military campaign. moscow has recently spoken with the un secretary general about the risks of continued fighting in the area and has invited specialists from the international atomic energy agency to inspect the plant. the u. n. has said it would be ready to facilitate such a visit, but only if the specialists enter from the ukrainian side of the front line. and if he of agrees former us marine corps intelligence officer, scott ritter, says the shelling is an extremely dangerous attempt to force russia to abandon the plant. this is a coordinated policy. and that makes it even more frightening because this isn't
1:03 am
just the case of ukrainian government going out of control. this is the case of the international community going out of control. the golden objective here is to accomplish through nuclear blackmail that which ukrainian army is unable to accomplish on its own. that is to remove russia from the separation of nuclear power plants. the amazing thing is that throughout russia's control of the separation power plan, of the reactors that have been in operation, i think right now only 2 of the 6 remain in operation. have been providing power to ukraine. it's a very dangerous situation. and it's one that is going to be very difficult to, you know, to conclude if, as it appears the west is, you know, work working collaboration with kids as opposed to see back and observing irresponsible behavior on the part of kids they're playing with fire. this is, this is a very frightening, scary and irresponsible action on the part of kids in their western supporters and
1:04 am
nearby and crimea. a state of emergency has been declared following explosions and a military mission stockpile near the peninsula. northern city of jan boy, russia's defense ministry, says it was an act of sabotage. a fire at the facility sparked a massive explosion on tuesday morning. and during at least 2 people, authority, se, civilian infrastructure was damaged, including residential buildings, a power plant and a railway. around $3000.00 people had to be evacuated from nearby areas we heard from some of them. but as long as jason, we woke up at 6 am after here in an explosion, then the blast came more frequently in the bathroom as trunk blast wave covered as we lay down in the bathroom with a child. plaster fell down. everyone ran to the basement. you know, a yard would cheats a flying everywhere,
1:05 am
some kind of detonators from shafts or something like that were lying around. they were such powerful explosions that he was really scared. and with children, the very scared a shell flew into the neighbor's yard and into the house. it did a dead need and it just lay there. another explosion completely demolished the wall near the house of our neighbors. in the morning the showing began, then i sat in the house during the impact, the windows were completely knocked out. i got scared and immediately ran into the basement. we sat there for 3 hours. it was frightening to moscow now, where the dozens of top military officials from some of the world's most powerful countries have been sitting down for talks to me all over geo political concerns and priorities. the event is hosted by russia's defense ministry as r t. this donald quarter reports well, this year's moscow conference on international security kicked off with a keynote speech by vladimir putin. the russian president focused primarily on the
1:06 am
western destabilizing role in the ukraine conflict. but also said that this is just one part of us lead efforts to stow conflict around the world. the russian president spoke a bit about those efforts in africa, latin america, and specifically around taiwan, even accused the west of trying to organize a nato style military alliance in the far east. now vladimir putin also said this means 2 things. number one that the age of unit polarity is coming to an end. and number 2, the west is desperately trying to hold on to the last remnants of its hegemony around the world. western officials know how many ukraine ukrainians have died in the name of that a gemini, and how many more will die in the name of it in the future. and yet, it seems like that's a risk they're willing to take since, according to russian president vladimir putin, the west has been using these ukrainians as cannon fodder and a proxy war against russia. that would give you this week in order to maintain
1:07 am
their had gemini, they need conflicts. therefore they decided that the people of ukraine are to be cannon fodder. they implemented the anti russia project in ukraine, was the, turned a blind eye to the spread of new nazi ideology to the massacres of people and on bass echo they pumped up and continue to pump up the key of regime with arms, including heavy weapons. so the situation in ukraine demonstrates that the united states is trying to drag out this conflict g through shortly after potent speech we heard from russian defense minister, sergei shy, go. and he echoed a lot of what the russian president said in terms of the end of western unit polarity and nato's attempts to fight a proxy war against russia in ukraine. but he also spoke a lot about the never ending a flow of weapons from the west into ukraine. and while unfortunately, a lot of them are making their way into the hands of black market tiers. shy, go also said that others, many others are actually finding their way into the hands of russian troops in the,
1:08 am
in the form of war trophies. but probably the most important thing shy goose said during the speech is that russia is not interested in employing nuclear weapons in the ukraine conflict. with, from a military point of view, there is no need to use nuclear weapons in ukraine to achieve the set goals. the main purpose of russian nuclear weapons is to deter nuclear attack. so some very high ranking defense officials from around the world have come here to participate in this conference. and that's basically a rundown of what rushes leadership decided to welcome them with ah, null and void. that's how the declared runner up in canada's presidential election, former prime minister riley odessa, has described the vote, saying he'll launch a legal battle against the narrow victory for the current deputy president william rudo. the political turmoil has sparked riots throughout the east african nation. here some of the aftermath ah,
1:09 am
monies announcement of rudo victory prompted his supporters to hold celebrations around the country, but groups backing as rival oh, dingo sat tires on fire in city streets and blockaded roads before police dispersed the crowds. o ding, it has vow to overturn the election results only through constitutional and other legal channels, which many view as a clear signal to supporters to stop engaging in violent protests. ryan loading guy on that is to to concede defeat, following the declaration of the resolved by the chairman of electron brody, or for electrical party who declared his opponent, dr. william some way to,
1:10 am
to us the we know of the 2020 to general elections. now mr. dina, in his address at the k i. c. c. today. he said that the i e. b. c. contravene the know by announcing the way now go to 2022 general elections along in his statement to tom that the i e. b. c. did not have the quorum scenes for the commissioners. distance themselves from a verizon that was announced by the chairman for legible county before commissioners claimed that the i v. c. chairman, from actual county did not engaged him onto the final ponce of this election, had thickness in neat. we today, colonel side by the electoral result. however, members of the, of sound, blood drawn from the country and even the international body, the time between defended to general elections as a free and fair. i know dingo has said that it resolves the to announce the
1:11 am
declaration that was made by the terminal from that you got the should be tom to non envoy. yes. and he support us to remain calm as they are following on that he, on the required processes, of course, to non designs. that shall probably form the 2 id election re election over this process to get to know who is that right food? are we not of the 2022 presidential elections for more or less cross lived or analyst michael o' gola. we now know that the declared runner up former prime minister raleigh o'denza will challenge the election results in court. if this happens, what are the implications of his decision not to concede? thank you very much. i think the 1st thing that we need to go here is the electrons are a very peaceful and sean con, we don't have a lot of issues to. yeah. so right. loading up proceeding to the courts is that
1:12 am
from the 100 will end, which is i would closer from for, for, for the, for the maybe support us will have to be the info many, many, yes. so if you think, i think it would have put the support on something in which you wanted for void and proceeding court has given us a lot obese and we hope the channels are followed. and we get out of this is our president and kenya of a lecture, results being disputed and actually returned if they love students of it in elections by the, by the courts. but i know doing that, but that was the selection. so they were done, but he didn't, but he spent their current precedent. canet up a bit of the loan and he was there we now get while the current deputy president william rudo has been declared the winner. what in his campaign message
1:13 am
particularly resonated with so many canyons, and do you think his track record as a vice president could have something to do with it? but the truck to the truck was president. and don't think that helped him much because expensive himself from different special organ. and like the extent right loading bought the incumbency because for the last 5 or so. yeah, he's been working with with a administration. i was looking for william rudolph. he had had a mistake about half of what he called the nation, which basically is about the war. and he had done economic model which bottom up, which one it had a lot with young. so his message was clear to them, but he is currently busy already presidency was going to be about i think he
1:14 am
made lee or betty needed from me, which is usually i don't know if he came up with anyone else. he lives to the current one, me and he had the wrong way out. we followed in the plan, i think that's why and why are members of the electoral commission refusing to endorse the result a some calling the vote to pick well last the absurdity of this election because they want to get the i think, i think the final count was what was to be given out. we can, we have $200.00 constituencies and from this constituencies the results will come
1:15 am
and there will be talent together and precedent. but they claim that the last 23 because these 2 are not given to them. and this was done by the ceo of the commission plus the chairman in the when the final tally was temple to them, they claimed this $23.00 constituent. this is not verify and they cannot take on us, you know, why? but this discussion again, there is also up on the public. what will anyone need to give you any notice in less that will be less than is demanded enough time. why they say they don't know that is the final cost out of to $90.00 when they're going to get them. that's what i'm not doing you w,
1:16 am
i don't know they don't they know the fan on time. and the answer was, we don't know that we knew was what it is. and i would say it's difficult to understand why that would be really difficult to understand what really is going on with my co go. analysts, thank you very much. thank you. meanwhile in the taiwan strait, tensions have been rising over micro chip production, as a us seems to be trying to boost its business ties was ty pay the world's biggest semiconductor producer, even trying to push beijing out of its position as a global high tech market leader are tease cale mop and has the story. the endo pacific region is finally starting to simmer down in the aftermath of the heated tensions caused by nancy pelosi provocation. and as the smoke clears,
1:17 am
we are now getting some clarity on what motivated the entire debacle. the taiwan strait is the main route, connecting the east china sea and the south china sea. therefore, the peace and stability of the strait is critical to the stability of the global high tech product supply chain. for an glacier micro shift, that's taiwanda specialty. the island producers, 65 percent of the world, semiconductors and 90 percent of the world's advance ships, a pretty big chunk of the global market for a vital commodity. pretty much everything we, you airplanes, medical equipment, i phones, refrigerators, these ships are everywhere. no coincidence that nancy pelosi took time to sit down with the chairman of t. s. m. c, the world's largest chip maker. while she was on her visit to the island of taiwan monday, another american delegation met with him. here's how it was reported in
1:18 am
u. s. mainstream media, how to expand economic cooperation between taiwan in the us, namely expanding investment in the semiconductor industry and improving supply chain in this and we conduct industry. this is important because washington is finally admitting what this is all about. this is washington struggling for control of key technology markets. they've been trying to cut out aging for quite some time . the u. s. has banned the export of technology to china and is past the ships act . hailed the bill that would help bring ship production home. now, part of this law would be that no company linked to china can get subsidies. beijing says these policies remind them of times passed to washington is entrenched in the mentality of the cold war and the 0 sum game running counter to the common aspirations of people in china and the u. s. to strengthen their cooperation. china is firmly opposed to their mentality and will firmly defend its own interests.
1:19 am
critics say this is obviously us multinational, trying to beat down a competitor. and this comes as new reports show that china has overtaken the us when it comes to scientific research. now the res for some conductors is on, and the u. s. a wants taiwan in their pocket. it's about staying top dog in the global markets and making sure china doesn't carve out a bigger chunk of global profits. washington seems committed to escalating as much as possible, even if it means the possibility of war between 2 nuclear armed powers. this is a really high price to pay for that. and it's very much not guaranteed in any case that the us will gain ascendancy in the chip market, which taiwan dominates, and which they're trying to keep china from, from ascending in military implications, of course, because one of the reasons why the u. s. once the game ascendance and the chip
1:20 am
market is to maintain its military privacy, this chip policy, this science a chip and science act is in the military as well. so it escalates pensions mil, apparently, and it puts china and the position of having compete to try to compete with the us militarily. so it doesn't do anything for the relation. politically. this is a very, very unwise move despite the western pressure on you dilated refrain from buying russian oil. indian top diplomat has emphasized that it's only natural for his country to want the most economically sensible deal. i have a country with a per capita income of $2000.00. these are not people who can afford higher energy prices. it's my moral duty to ensure the best deal. india is the world's 3rd largest oil consumer. it's imports of discounted russian supply search to record
1:21 am
high in june accounting for almost the faith of india's total imports of the commodity that has sparked criticism from washington with us officials pressuring new delhi to curtail of purchases from russia. the west has continued to try and maintain its grip on india even 75 years after the end of british colonial rule. this week marked the anniversary of india's independence, with vast celebrations, taking place across the country. residence in the southern city of hooley, carried 9 kilometer flag through the streets are tis ruined. june sharma takes a look at the controversial legacy that the british empire left behind in something that should come as a surprise to no one. the brits stole trillions of dollars from india by the way of the 3 forces between 17651947. but what's important to note is that they did it largely through india extensive real re network for decades. the
1:22 am
frequently federal narrative with armed colonial rule will have been that it wasn't all take by the brits that they gave in the us so much democracy. the english language that they built, the in really the 4th trucks will lead by the brit in 18. 53 that soon before a really a scheme to india, most of the transportation was done either toward or by water. that's true again. but what's also true is that really it was no gift for indians, and that it was all for the brits railways and roads were really built to serve british interests. and not those are the local people. they were designed to carry raw materials from being turned into the ports to be shipped to britain. let's take a look all paid for these rewards that indians. the british shareholders put in money and the government be then in double all paid for by indian taxes. india is resource rich goal, iron or cotton,
1:23 am
and the east india company realized the transporting. all this for exports was the most convenient buy real. and it meant in seen profits for the company. they used it really to steel. how much do you off? a very serious economic study which tried to estimate how much the british took out of india and value tubs. and a very calculated map ended up put a number of $45.00 trillion dollars at today's monday. so that should give you a sense of really what happened in those 200 years. it wasn't just the country, it's resources that they looted the railroads. also worse than the life of local people, take one of the most tragic events in the indian. he street the bingo of famine. the construction of the real reason in bangor was in the 4th place. one of the reasons for the famine bad drainage system led to diseases. you think it was the perfect opportunity to put the real, to some good use,
1:24 am
get the green where it was needed, when millions was starving. but the breadth did the opposite. they put rise on trains and got them out of india. the bengal famine was a result of food scarcity caused by large scale exports of food from india for use in the war theaters and consumption in britain. india exported more than 70000 tons of rice between january and july 1943 even as the famine set in this would have kept nearly 400000 people ally for a full year. and now when the local population started getting good at repairing and manufacturing trains themselves, when the brits couldn't let them get away with it, and they forced india to buy engines and baggins made in britain. and this was the story of the great indian robbery. my using the great and good release. my great duty the u. s. has been trying to pretend it isn't liable for the deaths of afghans during its chaotic withdraw from the country one year ago
1:25 am
this month. that's according to afghan authorities investigating the death of civilians who were trying to evacuate from pebbles. airport r t 's, maria for notion or share. the more light on the story ear has passed since you as troops and they are western allies, fled from afghanistan, but there is still no justice for people who back then we're trying to escape from cobble airport. in tears, panic, an agony, hundreds of afghans who worked with american forces and wanted to leave immediately in fear of the taliban to revenge, than managed to get on a plane. the picture provided by the u. s. military show the round 640 people on board. that plane is only meant to carry $100.00. 34 passengers. ah
1:26 am
us officials confirmed later that human remains were found inside the landing gear of the sea. 17 mill, replaying used for the evacuation flight from afghanistan to carter. the number of dead bodies found and the cause of death remains unclear even to day. i've got authorities tried to investigate the case to shed light on what had happened. we talked to those who are still fighting for justice, the imp, really mainstream media is hiding the real facts. what we're demanding is a fair investigation, but the meter is telling a complete lie to the world. western governments want to rectify their wrongdoings and they can actually do it, but it's impossible to deny facts. the u. s. air force also promised to probe our hearts go out to the families of the deceased. they said was the outcome though? was anyone held accountable for the deadline incident? no, never,
1:27 am
no one. the staff judge advocate offices from both the air mobility command in the united states. central command conducted a review of the inquiry findings and rendered concurring opinions. that the aircrew was in compliance with applicable rules of engagement specific to the event and the overall law of armed conflict. years that went viral a year ago, show afghans desperately trying to climb on to the wings of the plane, all to flee the country. danger and they are very high risk of injuring themselves, didn't stop them and in its turn, it didn't stop the u. s. pilots from taking off the theater. another one with the people are falling from planes and dying. it was shocking that the pilots still rushed to take off when these young men were dying. even more shocking is diverted by the american air force authorities that they crew was not guilty if they are not guilty, then who is responsible. the united states is responsible, but washington doesn't seem to agree and with its investigation, given no clear answers, it's hard to tell whether anyone will ever be held responsible for the tragedy will
