. literally a 150 meters from here is the plants, 5th power unit. and it is to working also had this news our, the world health organization wardens, the unfolding humanitarian crisis in ethiopia, is worse than what's happening on the ground in right. despite most of the 8 available flowing in india will for its own way in the world. the north dive into external pressure, while the countries ambassador to russia tells our tape, india always takes decisions on its own, based on its own national interest, and keeping in mind, whatever it feels is best for its own country people. and that's how we will continue to worship with from moscow to the world. this is our take, great to have you with us for the global news roundup. i'm you don't need the u. s . once the c rushes strategic exhaustion that's according to russia's defense

minister survey showing who, who is speaking of a defense meeting of the shanghai cooperation organization. minister chicago also reiterated that rushes seeking to minimize casualties among civilians. in the ukraine conflict. good spirits, a massage or use military operation. the ukraine, russia 40 follows the norms of humanitarian law. strikes a carried out with precision weapons on ukrainian military infrastructure. everything is being done to avoid civilian casualties. of course is slow down the pace of the offensive, but we're doing this deliberately. the ministry of race is being conducted in accordance to the original plan. all tossed are to be completed. the goal of the u . s. and it's accomplices, is to bring about rushes, strategic exhaustion in order to eliminate competition and geopolitical affairs, as want us to warn other states from pursuing independent foreign policies are younger. so while, while russia stresses it's trying to minimize civilian casualties,

a shopping center and done yet has been hit by shelling that local officials are blaming on ukrainian forces. the billing will soon engulfed in flames as our correspondent in the city or among crossroads takes us through. oh, we're driving along with a de nascar fire department said to a supermarket, that was us rock early in the morning here in a don't as fumes of smoke can be seen from every port of this city. apparently a fire department from all over that's out there on the scene at the moment. fire fighters are still fighting at the blaze of this supermarket. you can see plumes of smoke are still everywhere. now this us supermarkets or a mega market, as they call it here, sells everything from a food items to a medicine, to anything else that the locals might needa. i myself picks up humanitarian aid from this supermarket numerous times in order to deliver it 2 places to here. and

then as people republic where they needed. now the choir fighters just asked me to move over just a bit in case just to put us out of danger if you will. now, at the moment, local authorities are reporting that there were several strikes against this supermarket right now. it looks like it's completely destroyed, asked for the situation around this area. now there isn't as single military as structure here, so it looks like it's so obvious that the target was a civilian infrastructure. the strike took place at 10 o'clock in the morning. the supermarket was open at 8 o'clock and i this place is very popular among the local residents. as you can see, the building is still ablaze as a fire fighters are trying to put it out. that's all it to be careful because the root can collapse at any time. employees or the supermarket are now trying to salvage as much of merchandise as possible at the moment they can even speak so

as they can even give us the account because there's still quite a lot to be done. room on coffer, m r t. as people's republic. while the long awaited mission by the international atomic energy agency to these upper rosie a nuclear power plant could take place within days. that's according to the bodies director general. the facility now under russian military control house come under continued shelling in recent weeks with moscow blaming ukrainian forces for the bombardment. while the plants is the largest nuclear power station in europe and the shelling house stoke fears of a nuclear catastrophe. with the potential experts say to be worse than the chernobyl disaster, they states, such an incident could affect many countries which neighbor ukraine, and even reach as far as turkey. r t rushes electric rappin is the 1st to international journalist to report from the sprawling territory group. nice if you

would be like the stances the largest power plant in europe. suffer raja is being shell daily by the cranium military recently as a result of yet another attack, one civilian was killed on the spot and yet another was fatally wounded. still the station continues to operate with its reactors, generating energy with the check mark. i'm so glad no is not softening. we're currently near one of the pumping stations up as approach a nuclear plant. you'll ukrainian shall landed here in late july. you can see the consequences of that shelly right now for yourself. but this station continues to work as the main equipment is located in the basement bottle, doing in a coil for the oil at around continue to ditch this crater within the vicinity of the cleaning facilities was created last saturday. due to shelling by ukrainian

forces. you can judge for yourself about the danger of such attacks. literally a 150 meters from here is the plants, 5th power unit. and it is still working just around the corner. not that no. i mean, it's only for, at the moment the radiation at the station as well as the surrounding areas is within norms. the showing that mostly auxilary equipment, hydrogen and oxygen facilities, were trying to repair the damage as soon as possible, so that the nuclear plant will not have to halt its operations. i deem dora that he 12345. you can lose cow when you look at this building and try to figure out how many shells landed here. but the defense ministry has accurate statistics on how many times ukrainian forces fired at this approach in nuclear plant. and it is ready to share that data with the global community, including with the i e a. but no one is in a hurry to come here. yet at this approach, a nuclear plant out of 6 power units 3 or under scheduled repair to are working

normally. and one is working at about 10 percent of its capacity to ensure its own safety. with the cooling system. with a stick loy bassy chung shattered glass walls damaged by shrapnel. this is the lesser evil that can happen as a result of artillery shelling of a nuclear power plant. even according to the most conservative estimates, in the event of a detonation of the nuclear reactor, a radioactive cloud could cover half of europe. it would take at least a decade to eliminate all of the consequences did today. the borrowers, k is defeated. the territory of this approaching plant is really impressive. it takes at least an hour to just walk around the power units. but from the view of a satellite, a reconnaissance drone, the entire territory can be seen all at once. if russian heavy artillery was located here, that would have become public knowledge long ago, the photos would have been published all over the media. but that is not happening because there was no heavy russian weaponry here. with the west is deliberately

concealing key of shelling of the south at rosie a plant making russia a scapegoat for quote, everything. that's what moscow's envoy to the u. n. a said during a security council meeting, the plant was attacked again in recent days. russia's representative reiterated that moscow does not use the facility for any military purposes. most who are new, i think of solution to start today, we again heard the old broken record. russia is to blame for everything, the real back route of the events around those upper ocean and nuclear power plant is shamelessly hushed up. obvious facts or hinder denied. all this is done with one single purpose to whitewash their key of commanders, no matter what they do. they have carte blanche for the most unreasonable actions in the knowledge that they can be justified by their patron. in any case, contrary to the false claims of the key of regime and its curators, russia does not deploy heavy weapons on the territory of the nuclear power plant and does not use the station for military purposes. the russian defense ministry is

ready to ride the international atomic energy agency with high resolution images which show that weapons, especially heavy ones, are not located on the territory of the plant. will this wedding stay? ukraine marks 31 years since its independence from the soviet union. president zelinski has bond any celebrations in cuba, saying that russia could use the day to attack the capital or former us security policy analyst in the department of defense like on the lift. so he's ukraine, is the one posing a threat to russia as it violated its own independence policy. they have no reason to celebrate because they have not lived up to their own principles. it's, it's pathetic what, how eternal events have occurred here. their independence a day has had a provision and it's proclamation of independence, so they will remain not aligned. they violated that severely by wanting to join

nato. and from there it threatened security of russia in bold nato to expand further. and it's all because of ukraine that we're in, the mess that we're in right now. it goes back to the overthrow of a democratically elected government back in what was a 2014 as a consequence, they have blown it there. they're no longer in charge of themselves. frankly. the humanitarian disaster unfolding in ethiopia is worse than in ukraine. now, the warning from the head of the world health organization is criticized the lack of funds flowing into the country compared to what keith is received. i can tell you that the humanitarian crisis integrate is more than you create without an exaggeration. and i say to many months ago, maybe the reason these, the color of the scheme of the people into guy. i haven't had it been the last 5

few months or so on monday. no. even a head of state talking about that i condition anywhere in the develop good, especially to gray is just one example of a global humanitarian crisis. we are here hearing from you in agencies as well as private groups that for this year alone, they need just under $50000000000.00 to be able to provide for the more than $200000000.00 vulnerable people. now, many of these people are in the middle east and are in africa, and where as the money that has been sent to ukraine has been forthcoming. what we are witnessing is an alarming short form of many, an aide reaching the middle east and africa. it's, of course the question needs to be asked why the discrepancy and this is a question that is pinpointed and highlighted by martin griffiths of the united nations. this is the biggest funding gap we've ever seen,

mostly because the number of vulnerable people who need support is increasing fast . now, in the 1st 7 months of this year, the u. n. was able to raise only a 3rd of the money that is needed. at the same time, the money that was needed for the ukraine has been plentiful. so if i could just break that down to gray beach, an inlaw than ethiopian, i can't. it's been a civil war since november 2020. and the figures point to 4500000 people who are in urgent need of emergency food. of that number 3 quarters of a 1000000 will be starving within the next few weeks. the world food program has also reported that by october, this year it will have run out of food for people in ethiopia. if you move across to bangladesh, there you have your retention refugees. now we're talking here about a 1000000 displaced people who all need emergency assistance. they are fully reliant on that and any kind of decreased funding will affect shelter will affect

nutrition, will affect sanitation with result that many of them i'm barking on dangerous boat journeys to try and reach a better future if you move across to somalia. here, there has been a devastating drought and a fixed point to at least 1000000 people there who are internally displaced and another 7000000 who are facing acute, sued security or insecurity. at the same time, you have 7675000 syrian refugees in a camp in jordan. they've been they since 2011 and that kemp is an urgent need of repairs. there's no electricity. and there's an alarming humanitarian crisis unfolding there. by comparison, you look at the ukraine now they the initial pill went out by the united nations for moving $6000000000.00. that was to assist ukrainian, refugees, both within the country and outside the country. not only was that appeal mates,

but even more money was raised. the 2nd appeal is also on track to being mate. so of course the question needs to be asked why the discrepancy? and this is the question that is answered by the you in agency spokesperson. the worn ukraine has illustrated very starkly how it is possible to rapidly and extensively mobilize support for refugees and respond to humanitarian needs. when political commitment is there a situation nice way you have aid agencies like the you and hcr that are having to make it very difficult and distort and heartbreaking choices. the simple reality is that in the next few months, they will be large numbers of people who are helpless and who are in desperate need of humanitarian help. who was simply not be receiving us on the head of a red cross delegation to russia and bella roost. john entwistle told us donations to the organizations african missions are locking. ready

sequential price here, so a timeline. ready we have free crisis in africa with once additional requirement funding support. and while crisis have multiple policy success. if i were to find a situation class where we can work with national society without having to. ready a multiple multitude across the globe we will continue to make decisions based on our own national interest. that's the message from india's and buster to russia who was speaking during a commemoration event in moscow marking 75 years of indian independence. one such

decision is struggling ties with russia. new delhi has already increased its oil purchases from moscow, which reached the record level in june. and india set to further deepen relations with russia in a military sphere as well with the 2 nations taking part in joint exercises later this month. the countries on board to moscow say there's plenty more room for cooperation in the future to india always takes decisions on its own based on. so national interest, obviously there is the new reality. there are, you know, there are many banks which are sanctioned. there are logistical issues, there are payment issues which have to be overcome. we have to find the way forward . there is tremendous school for increasing our trade in economy corporation you've seen just in the last few months at a certain change in the direction of trade. we certainly buying lots more oil from russia and fertilizers also, but i think there's a greater demand from russia for many more products. consumer goods, food processing items, autobahn. so a lot of areas which can get this thing,

including of course, traditional items like we're also mocking 75 years of india, russia, diplomatic relations. and i am sure that this wonderful tradition we have will friendship and co christian will continue well into the future. now this finds an energy crisis, taking holes in the e u pollings president is calling for the dismantling of the nord stream to pipeline, which was built to supply gas from russia to europe with her take on developments to u. r. t contributor rachel marston. officials across the european union have been pushing this unity rhetoric pretty hard lately. but as various member states start eyeing tough times on the horizon with energy inflation and cost of living crises, that solidarity looks like it's about to be tested. some countries are on such a blind anti russian footing that they're promoting scorched earth policies. the polish president is now saying that he wants to see that nord stream to gas pipeline dismantled,

which would literally burn the energy bridge between russia and europe. these radical remarks come at a time when germany, which heavily subsidizes poland through the u is in deep trouble. cheap russian gas powered by germany were power germany to the status of the economic industrial engine of the european union. it was the use own sanctions and germany's total delusion that green energy could do all the heavy lifting without russian gas that now in peril. the status. meanwhile, belgian prime minister, alexander the crew is warning of $5.00 to $10.00 difficult winters for europe, which is just astounding. here we have the head of state of a european country who's talking like he's a mere observer. why isn't he screaming to the rooftops about the need to plug the gas back in? and french officials now are coming to the realization that frances long neglected nuclear power plants and low water levels for reactor cooling. mean that

a return to a greater dependence on nuclear power may not be the panacea that they figured it would be. you might recall that hungry was the only e country to initially refused to cut its own gas supply from russia. but now fears are reportedly emerging within the e u that bulgaria could be next to come to its senses. and a new interim government appointed by president room and rod of could exploit the opportunity ahead of the art her 2nd general election to re establish an energy lifeline with russia. this is all according to media reports. now rad of, by the way, is a former air force chief and mic fighter jet pilot, who apparently isn't prone to the knee jerk for us, a phobia of his predecessor who was ousted in a jew nonprofits folk. the sands could also be shifting in italy, where right wing italian prime ministerial hopeful georgia maloney slammed the use energy policies on the campaign trail. edaly is not in immediate situation. even

the best efforts of our government have left us in a difficult situation. public debt out of control were in the heart of europe, in skyrocketing energy prices that are bringing families in businesses to their knees. energy prices are hitting record high across europe this week, and governments are now in a race against time to save their own citizens and economies before they crumble under devastating costs. in a situation that you have to admit entirely of their own making. a one way ticket to russia. that's what some love koreans are demanding for anyone in the country who refuses to denounce russia and ukraine conflict. a petition on a popular luffy and website is calling for their repub creation. the post author alleges people they say, who are more loyal to russia, have not integrated into luffy and society, are often quote to poorer to return to russia of their own accord. it's claimed the

plan will strengthen the internal security and well being of the baltic country that's cross live now to political commented or your brick mall for his take hazel . yeah. ordinary petition not, but it's not just a few faceless people online. lot fees leader has said that russian speaking residents who don't support greek as few of the conflict should be quote, isolated. it's hard not to see this as institutional rest of it will be it years of girls that you though the, both the states are very, i mean the both the states. and then of course, you can very, very so far because now the question is whether that comes from the occupation after 45 or the 70 occupation after 45 or whether it existed before. i think it's of yours that it existed before the bolshevik revolution. so there is a intense conflict between these people in the oceans and of course the prism

conflict in chain gives justification 40. so there's a phobia, but of course it is quite shocking that we don't to value do this goes into your opinion about their values. we have the state which is going to discriminate against citizens about of the citizens, not on the basis of a you know, what the think, but who the. yeah. i mean, that's used to we can racism if you please questions by jews or black or something like that. that will be obvious in terms of the petition. john, what does it indeed say? but the attitude of love means to people who, who don't negatively perceive russia, they're still fellows residence after all. but if they don't and think the same, they must leave. how dangerous is that for society? yeah, that's of course goes, does a different thing is not just on the basis of origin, but on the basis of the of the now if you want to press freedom of thought to the

extent that the bit of a bad though it's not actions, nothing. so, but there is nothing they don't have to leave them and yeah, that's again, institutional racism. what can you, how can you call it other ways? is this and only being seen in both states or are similar desires being expressed in, in more european countries? do you find were the desires everywhere i was talking to somebody in germany recently was wondering why the state does not confiscate all the assets by russians in germany. i mean, he has picked it up there where they are, speaking of their opinion, everything. when people are starting to confiscate the so called width of the russian, all the guy didn't bother to know that these only gets were public tina type latino . what did it mean to be another guy? how much money do you have to have? i mean, it was just completely arbitrary and then people approve that then goes from bad to

worse. look at the campaign against unless the international because they said certain things perfectly factual about the canyon tactics. i mean, there is a whole campaign away. usually they're completely faithful. to the agenda of the west and didn't answer human highs by nation by end of the west. that now was the did it with friends of close friends of the west and there was huge campaign against them. look at least person. i was saying that she would not easy to use nuclear weapons, which means she would not hesitate to make a part of history. he didn't exist anymore. they started with nuclear weapons. my call is now saying that you have to have a, you know, we have to be the place of freedom to decided where he's freedom with friends. he's not that i think that they're going to attack friends with even the opinion. and so where is the, where, where do we know what the discuss is? even the opposition, so call for friends or family even then don't say anything about that. so we are in

a situation which is unbelievably crazy. and you mentioned on last year, just a minute ago when the belgian climbing is, cindy says 5 to 10 years who was addicted him to her 5 of 10 years of different winter. and of course, he says 5 to 10 years, and i do what it can be, could be 1520 years, and i do whatever. so how you can compute these things? i mean, it's one thing after another, it's complete gum, lead hysteria. i mean, the chain war you, i mean you goes, he the, you know, the killing of the dog dugean. i mean, the bill of newton was given was as you need. and when he joyce about that many people, he goes on the social and that's where he goes above the when anybody was enjoying about the tech on the, on hers the new york new york fade in the book chapter. lately the reaction was quite different. wasn't that at thanks very much for coming on the program and

sharing your thoughts was always good to speak to sean brickman political commentary live from paris today. thank you very much. k, the india has last start up big tech with a parliamentary committee grilling representatives of the world's largest technology companies for stripping opportunities for small businesses. and let's go through it the committee and ledgers that amazon google, netflix over facebook. apple and twitter are all responsible for they hit domestic indian companies, took true on for competition to firms in question. deny that our team rendered sharma is in new delhi and can tell us more. in fact, i would have been given to understand the way of my sources is that the parliament c panel or finance in india is likely looking at recommending a new legislation to or prevent them properly by a some of the big tech companies. for example, google, amazon, apple, netflix,

timelines, your god, yes. today the bomb and g committee has a monday of all the representatives or some of the biggest tech companies and essentially the quiz them with about 10 questions. 14 got own key beating policy and using data when shopping competition you know, how did you use whether the data that is used that eng she or other players into the market also what they are going to when it comes to suspending some of the applications now why did this happen over the past few months? saw some indian companies in the digital space, especially have been now filing complaints about, you know, i'm say, a business practices or a, some of the big tech companies are how they restrict the market for them. how the

us and should be hard to stay for kids and stop the market and see. now all this stuff particular parliamentary committee has all sort on those from them in writing is will be all likely to make a d. d, a report for the government. and of course like i said, they are likely to recommend a new legislation to prevent a monopoly. all the big companies in it. yeah. ok from asia to africa where it's a big day for angola and they're voting today to electric countries, president on members of the national assembly, another ruling people's movement for the liberation of i'm gola faces. it's most significant challenge from opposition parties for decades. the tight presidential election race puts the country really out of crossroads. so citizens choose between the ruling party and the country's largest opposition. the national union for the total independence of on gola which has been funded and are by the u. s. and it's

a lie. so a lot at stake there will keep you updated as early results begin to emerge from angola. now, if you've never heard of imperial japan secret unit 731 know is the time to pop out, right? or documentary next. it's gruesome and fascinating and equal measure, and it starts with what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy confrontation, let it be an arms race is often very dramatic, development only personally and getting to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successfully, very difficult time time to sit down and talk.
