ah ah, moscow says d f is raising the risk of a nuclear disaster worse than chernobyl as ukrainian forces. shelly radioactive waste facility at the embattled zappa roget power plant are san violence and riots. penny a face of political deadlock as they defeated presidential candidate refuses to concede. from colonialism to independence, india sends a powerful message that is only natural to defend one's interests. we investigate the bridge. empire is controversial. legacy. the brit stole julians of dollars from india by the way of the 3 forces between 176-5940 7. but what's
4:01 am
important to note is that they did a lot the who india extensive, rio v network, and money 1st as tension store between washington and beijing over taiwan. it seems the actual purpose of the provocative us visits to the island was to expand my per ship production with hello from moscow to wherever you're watching from. i'm parallel is about with this, our top news stories from around the world. a pleasure to have you join us. ukrainian troops have shelled a nuclear waste storage facility at the embattled zap, rosie a nuclear power plant yearly destroying a radioactive container. meanwhile, western media continue to blame russia for the damage and claim that moscow is trying to steal energy from the plant destined for ukraine. russia has dismissed
4:02 am
those accusations as groundless. russia has 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 infrastructure. the key of 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 the shelley has sparked fears of a tragedy. worse than sure, no both 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 risk of continued fighting in the area and has invited specialists from the international atomic energy agency to inspect the
4:03 am
plant the you and has said it would be ready to facilitate such a visit, but only of the specialists enter from the ukrainian side of the front line, and if kiev agrees for 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 just the case of ukrainian government going out of control. this is the case of the international community going out of control. the goal and 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 nuclear power plant. the amazing thing is that throughout russia's control of the separation nuclear power plant, uh, the, the reactors that have been in operation, i think right now only 2 of the 6 remain in operation. have been providing power to
4:04 am
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 in collaboration with kids as opposed to see back in observing your responsible 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 to moscow. now we're dozens of top military officials from some of the world's most powerful countries have been sitting down for talk, some all over geopolitical concerns and priorities. if that is hosted by russia's defense ministry as our kids, 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 western destabilizing role in the ukraine conflict. but also said that this is just
4:05 am
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 their had gemini, they need conflicts. therefore they decided that the people of ukraine are to be
4:06 am
cannon fodder. they implemented the anti russia project in ukraine, 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 of the situation in ukraine, demonstrates that the united states is trying to drag out this conflict. certainly after potent speech, we heard from russian defense minister, sir gay, shy grew, 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, in the form of war trophies. but probably the most important thing shy goose said
4:07 am
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 on the side lines of the conference, we spoke to the head of the right across delegation to russia, and bella roost itar as one of he told us about the role of the organization in the war in ukraine today, main directions of the activity in the conflict in ukraine is one who have unimpeded access to prison for the delivery of humanitarian services to the population. caught in the fighting. it is ensuring that the information about those
4:08 am
competence that are fallen that are provided that families can get answers to the faithful care, beloved ones. it is also about conduct the facilities as you know from the commission set rules for the coming up in today's conflicts are very much also in media and not on the mainstream media. but there are also social media and other media outlets. we as institutions are also exposed to certain media campaigns, what we call navigation, engage the misinformation. this information here is and being a neutral, impartial, 17 organization. we often unfortunately face challenges when it comes for the coverage when it comes to the discussion about our activities. so when it comes to exactly and describing the fate or their plight of the people that find themselves
4:09 am
in a complex fish and what i can say, none of the media can deliver their unfortunate reality off the challenge is that people face either ukraine or many other conflicts that we are having. oh, no, and void that. so the runner up antonia's presidential election, former prime minister, raleigh, or dingo, 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,
4:10 am
monday's announcement of rudo victory prompted his supporters to hold celebrations around the country. but groups backing his rival dingo set tires on fire in the city streets and blockaded roads before police dispersed the crowds. o dinger has vow to overturn the election results only through constitutional and other legal channels, which may view which many view as a clear signal to supporters to stop engaging in violent protests. ryan, no danger and that is to is to concede defeat, following the declaration of the resolved by the chairman of electrons would be, were flexible karate, who declared his opponent, dr. windham, some way to, to us the we met on the 2022 general elections now mr. deemed or in his address at the k i. c. c. today. he said that the i e b. c. contravene the know by announcing
4:11 am
the winner of the 2022 general elections alone in his statement here. tom, the i e. b. c. did not have the quorum scenes for the commissioners. distance themselves from a better result that was announced by the chairman for food i took on to the 4 commissioners claimed that i beseech him on or from actual cutty did not engaged him under the final fonts of this election. had thickness in neat. we today, colonel decide to buy the electoral results. however, members of the obscene blood drawn from the country and even the international body . they tom, between defended to general elections as a free and fair. i know dingo has said that the resolves that will announce the declaration that was made by the chairman of fletcher cutty should be tom to non envoys. yes. and he support us to remain calm as day hard for doing on the on the required process. of course,
4:12 am
to now designs that shall probably form the 2 id election re election over this process to get to know who is that right before we know of the 2022 presidential elections. we spoke with analysts, michael o' gola, who explain why the legitimacy of the presidential race has been called into question. i think the 1st thing that we need to underscore here is the electrons of if useful and the population out. com. we don't have a lot of issues here. so a loading up or proceeding to the courts. he's a from i see it is a 100 legs. it is. i would close show room for, for the maybe support us who house to be them for many, many, yes. just outside of your selections because they want to get, i think, i think the final count was, was to be given out. we, you know, we have $200.00 constituencies from this constituencies that he's us will come and
4:13 am
there will be tied together. and the president will be in a $23.00 constituencies. he's also not given to them. and this was timely by the ceo of the commission plus the chairman. they claim this ready for the consequences exhausted. not very high on our side to kind of think on a sheet. a last may was off despite the us as pressure on you delhi, to 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 in is the world's 3rd largest oil consumer. it's imports of discounted russian supplies, searched through a record high in june, accounting for almost the face of india's total in parts of the commodity that has
4:14 am
sparked criticism from washington with u. s. officials pressuring new delhi to curtail it's 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 mark the anniversary of india's independence, with vast celebrations, taking place across the country. residence in the southern city of hopefully carried a 9 kilometer long fly through the streets. ortiz rooms you sharma, takes a look at the controversial british legacy in something that should come as a surprise to no one. the brit stole trillions of dollars from india. by the way, of the 3 forces between 17651947. but what's important to know to is that they did a largely through india extensive re, re network. for decades, the frequently federal narrative would armed colonial rule have been that it wasn't
4:15 am
all take by the brits that they gave and out so much democracy. the english language and that they built the in him really the 4th trucks were lead by the brit in 18. 53 that soon before a really is came to in the our, most of the transportation was done either toward or by water. that's true again, but what's also true is that really is, was no gift for indians and that it was all for the brits really isn't. roads were really built to serve british interest or not. those are the local people there. what is going to count in raw materials from being turned into the ports to be shipped to britain? let's take a look all feed for these rewards that indians. the british shareholders put in money and the government to be then in a double paid for by indian taxes. india is resource rich goal, iron or cotton and the east india company realized the transporting. all this for the export was the most convenient buy real. and it meant in seen profits for the
4:16 am
company they use, did rowley to steal? how much do you off a very serious economic study which tried to estimate how much the british took out of india and value toms. and a very calculated map ended up put a number of $45.00 trillion dollars that produce. so that should give you a sense of really what happened in those 200 years. it wasn't of the country, it's resources that they looted the railroads or for worse than the life of local people. take one of the most tragic events in the indian history, the bingo of famine reconstruction. the real reason in being or was in the 4th place, one of the reasons for the famine, bad drainage system, ned diseases, you think it was the perfect opportunity to put the real, to some good use, get the green where it was needed, when millions were starving but the breadth did the opposite,
4:17 am
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 alive 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. i'm. this is a story of the great indian robbery by using the great and you really, my great duty. meanwhile, in the taiwan strait, tensions have been rising over micro chip production, as the us seems to be trying to boost its business ties with ty pay the world's biggest semiconductor producer, even trying to push beijing out of its position as
4:18 am
a global high tech market leader art is caleb martin has a 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, we're 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. translation micro ships. that's taiwanda specialty . the island produces 65 percent of the world, semiconductors and 90 percent of the world's advanced chips, a pretty big chunk of the global market for a vital commodity. pretty much everything we, you airplanes, medical equipment, i bones, refrigerators. these chips are everywhere. no coincidence that nancy pelosi took
4:19 am
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 and other american delegation met with him. here's how it was reported in 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 the semi conductor 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 as a 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 pass to washington is entrenched in the mentality of the cold
4:20 am
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 interest. critic say this is obviously us multi nationals 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 race for semiconductors 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,
4:21 am
which taiwan dominates. and we're trying to keep china from, from ascending in military implications, of course, because one of the reasons why the u. s. wants to gain ascendance in the chip market is to maintain its military privacy. this chip policy, this science a chip and science act is, is a military app as well. so it escalates pensions militarily and it puts china in 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 in our special coverage. we continue looking at the changes enough get us and since the last american soldier left that soil one year ago, this month, along with the suffering hardship and failure experienced by its people.
4:22 am
the news the u. s. has been trying to pretend it isn't liable for the deaths of afghans during its chaotic withdrawal from the country. that's according to afghan authorities investigating the deaths of civilians who were trying to evacuate from couples. airport ortiz maria for notion, a shed 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 ban. we're trying to escape from kabul airport in tears, panic, and agony, hundreds of afghans who worked with american forces and wanted to leave immediately in fear of the taliban. 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.
4:23 am
ah 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 of ganesh, down 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 imperial mainstream media is hiding the real facts. what we're demanding is a fair investigation, but the major 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
4:24 am
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, 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. sho, afghans, desperately trying to climb belong to the wings of the plane, all to flee the country. danger and they very high risk of injuring themselves, didn't stop them, and in its turn, they 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 the crew was not guilty if they are not
4:25 am
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 any one will ever be held responsible for the tragedy. global coal consumption could reach a decade high as the e. u scrambles for new sources of energy. why the repercussions of its sanctions against russia continue to bite back? the block is now turning to south africa to fulfill its energy needs. despite being among those that pledge $8500000000.00 to de carbonized, the country's economy and 2021. south africa's cool exports. see, europe have increased a staggering 720 percent in the last year with the fossil fuel industry becoming a sol affordable option in most of the e. u. germany in particular, expect it to burn a $100000.00 tons of coal per month this winter. meanwhile,
4:26 am
the eas grand plans for green energy appear even further out of reach that's after western democracies launched a so called groundbreaking international energy transition partnership with south africa, the british prime minister stressing that last year. because that cooperation would pretoria will create a precedent with threads of transition to clean energy while u. s. president joe biden promised to conduct the transformation quickly. at the moment the west is efforts to support green energy are clearly on the back burner as it seeks to dig more coal from south africa. meanwhile, the return of fossil fuels continues to fuel animosity little clash is breaking up between eco activists and police. in the german city of hamburg at the weekend, officers was ordered to baton and pepper spray. as protesters, demands for green energy threatened to boil out of control some express deep this
