9:04 am
they took responsibility for the fate of the world's nations, tried to use it for their own opportunistic reasons and fail. that's why unilateralism doesn't work. here in the screwdriver, fiduciary of the mrs. for a few months, there had been no peace negotiations between moscow and kiev de motivation for k have to stop negotiation, cease to exist when the west decided to supply ukrainian troops with military aid. there are no chances of a peace treaty unless they stop following this irresponsible policy. they only for snivla's fiduciary review. the ukrainians are now facing a cold shower. they had never fought, their policies could be so wrong that they could miscalculate the consequences of their actions. so badly now, the western public has a very rough image of what's happening in ukraine. they think that russia simply invaded ukraine and is trying to conquer the country, western politicians, and up this narrative because the western public support sit in cold
9:05 am
showers, that low indoor temperature and dark shop, windows and st. that's where you are. pin government that preparing for due to the energy crisis in europe, governments are taking draconian measures to reduce electricity consumption, which will significantly affect the lives of the population. now germans will have to sit in cold offices and won't pass to unless buildings and monuments in the evenings or the fins will have to reduce the time they shower and use digital devices. moreover, electricity prices are rising significantly as households in the u. k. will pay 3 times more for heating than before. and so luscious falls, thus, according to jim and chancellor, olaf shalt sang moscow is to blame for all the sanctions against itself, as well as the resulting energy crisis in europe. the politician also held russia's leader vladimir putin to play everywhere. people talk,
9:06 am
i'm reports how insane. he says that we had trade for decades. that there was economic exchange roles. water mistake was, i don't think it was a mistake that's marked his putin who made a mistake when, instead of putting the interests of his own country 1st, he will satisfy his own imperial megalomania at the expense of the russian citizens who will suffer the most in the end as good live to are taken should be to rachel marston now. rachel, nice to see you. and rachel tellers, why such a reaction? came from the german chancellor. that so the german chancellor, whose country is facing de industrialization power rationing and blackout dangers from self imposed sanctions, is now accusing russian president vladimir putin of not looking after russians. citizens. pretty sure the lights are still on in moscow and that moscow isn't forcing austerity on its own citizens, unlike french president emanuel michael,
9:07 am
who suggested that's coming down the pipe when he evoke the quote end of abundance earlier this week. sounds like schultz could use one of those self help courses that teach you to take responsibility and ownership for your own problems rather than trying to project blame for your own choices and actions on to someone else. putin did not sanctioned germany or the you, you can't control what anyone else does, but you sure can control your own reaction to it. and the sanctions where the choice of the you and its members states just went along with it. as for sholtes accusing putin of imperial ambitions. well, what about the european union's imperialism? that imposed its own members, states, imposed sanctions on these own member states by demanding the adoption of these economically and socially suicidal sanctions. now, the unelected bureaucrats in brussels came up with these sanctions, and the member states were just expected to apply them on their own citizens
9:08 am
without any democratic consultation. now, how is that not imperialism? i special saying that putin quote, made a mistake. then why are germans in europeans, the ones who are paying the price right now, rushes pirouetted away from the west towards the global south and asia? well, european leaders are going door to door all around the world, asking hey, got a gas for us. by the way, the gas is right in front of schultz, his face as a german deputy and member of the parliamentary committee on energy and climate protection has just pointed out. even if the gas storage facilities are full, there will be enough for about 3 months. this winter and then what idea ology has to give way to a real fact oriented policy. the only sensible solution is to launch nord stream to remember who 1st sanctioned nord stream to well before the ukraine conflict if show is desperate to find a scapegoat for the fact that governments from spain to finland are now barging
9:09 am
into the private sphere to control room and water temperatures and reading their hands over potential unrest and power blackouts. perhaps you should start with those who successfully convince you to jump off that sanctions cliff. and that's not russia. that's washington. re so many things, those details as long as they contribute to rachel monson. now, hi electricity prices have led to italian restaurant owners posting electricity bills on the windows of their establishment to explain to customers. the rising price is on the menu. the italian federation of public establishment has already sounded the alarm, seeing that at least 20 percent of restaurants are at risk of bankruptcy due to rising energy costs. local restaurants gave their opinion on the situation. ah,
9:10 am

9:12 am
realizes it is extremely emotional. the collective west stuff that they could as she destroy russian economy, but they didn't realize it ashy. the collective western is much more russia than russia needs the collective west. they did a lot of miscalculation to present politicians in the collective west. ah, i'm not a close enough to the realities. they've been selling us for 56 months now, that they had the solution into his another marketing announcement. they don't have the are not quick solutions here when you are talking about energy, it is long term planning vacation. you do not switch on and off a supplier. this is why it requires billions of dollars of investment. any teeth years, if not decades. ultimately, if they don't have at heart the,

the interest of their citizens, because if they did, they would, they wouldn't take those decisions. east african countries have agreed to st. james, to the democratic republic of the condo, after a request to help stand violence in the countries east. as of the un peacekeeping mission known as monist go left one of its spaces in the troubled beach and after losing public support of our heathen, our demanding is complete withdrawal from the country. we would like the contingents of the united nations organizations stabilization mission in the democratic republic of the congo to withdraw from any territory as well as from lou borrow territory and why not from north cuba. as we have indicated in the 4 civil society coordinations of the north, the un moved as peacekeepers from his base in eastern town of be 10 bo, following violent protests that broke out last month during which the bodies basis were attacks. dozens of being killed among the united nations soldiers, civilians, and congo,

9:15 am
of all this because the task of protecting the population that was set before the peacekeepers were never fulfilled. we found ourselves face to face with warring parties who are busy steaming minerals, not protecting the population. we are not saying that no foreign forces armies and our welcome in our country. we say that there are certain armies or certain foreign aid, primarily military, that could help us. with their help, we will be able to understand how we can turn the tide and return piece to our land . pakistan is urging the international community for help with relief efforts. the country copes with the devastating aftermath of deadly floods. authorities say more than 30000000 people have been affected by monsoon rains and flooding with at least 900 people killed. about 3000 kilometer roads and a $129.00 bridges have also been damaged across the country. meetings through a critical lack of access to victims in the most heavily affected areas.

9:18 am

9:19 am
the home we heard a huge sound of an explosion. 5 minutes later we saw tv footage show in blood bodies and injured people. i went there and found one of my sons, and he told me there was a bomb blast. i asked him, where is your brother? he said he had no idea, but he went there and came back saying his brother was dry and injured in an open drain covered by 2 bodies. he didn't want to tell me that my son had passed away. ah no. when i removed the bodies, i saw my son had passed away. i saw several bullet wounds on his head and body, ah, recording over the americans did this crying. so why are they they wants to answer? we have a valid question when the americans came here. what did they do for us?
9:20 am
we have seen nothing about destruction, killings, blood, and homeless people. as millions of afghans struggle to piece their lives back together, i get off the disastrous u. s. military pull out from the country re to it, which was black assays. rachel blackens investigates the aftermath of washington so called war and her it's hacks on 911, resulted in the deaths of around 3000 americans. but it was the bush administration's response to those attacks and its decision to declare the war on terror that ushered in an era of u. s. foreign policy marked by military intervention nation building an attempt to reshape the middle east. it was, as former president bush predicted, a new and different war. it tactic place on american soil. but it was an attack on the heart and soul of the civilized world. and the world has come together to fight a new and different war. the 1st and we hope the only one of the 21st century
9:21 am
or against all those who seek to export her and a war against those governments that support or shelter them. now more than 20 years later, the global war on terror has resulted in more than 900000 deaths, including soldiers, civilians, journalists, and humanitarian aid workers. it is cost an estimated $8.00 trillion dollars, and it has led to a u. s. military presence in more than 80 countries around the world with no plans to bring those troops home anytime soon. so if the goal from the start was to put an end to terrorism around the world as the us side then hasn't been successful. well, the initial goal was to defeat the terrors group al qaeda and more importantly it's leader. yet this group still exist to this day, and it was nearly a decade before former president obama announced that at least one mission had been
9:22 am
accomplished after a fire fight. they killed osama bin laden and took custody of his body for over 2 decades. then lawton has been al qaeda's leader and symbol and has continued a plot of tax against our country and our friends and allies. the death have been lauded marks the most significant achievement to date in our nations effort to defeat al qaeda. but while that was seen as a significant achievement, it was also an isolated victory in the global campaign. in fact, the war went on to do the opposite of it stated objective. it made the world even more unstable, especially in the middle east, where government overthrows bombing campaigns and years of occupation by the us and its allies, created a vacuum that allowed the most extreme groups to flourish. and that's exactly what they did. a study from a dc based think tank found that the number of active tear groups in 2018 was 67 the highest level in decades. they also found that there were as many as 230000
9:23 am
fighters, a 270 per cent increase since 2001. the objectives that had set for itself were unachievable. terrorism cannot be defeated. the threat is constantly evolving. all kinda is far from the threat. it once was, its ideological views had continued to spread as other groups like the islamic state began to gain influence numbers and even us weapons and iraq and syria. the results, various terrorist groups have become known beyond the middle east in asia and especially africa. and it's not just the groups as there have also been a number of long wolf atrocities. over all the terrorist attacks have skyrocketed. extremists continued to spread instability and chaos across the globe. al qaeda affiliates in africa to hel, region post some of the greatest dangers in the past 15 years. groups like al, sure. bob and al qaeda in the islamic, the grab a q i m have increased their attacks tenfold. today they are drawing ever closer to
9:24 am
realizing their dreams of creating islamic states rooted injury. a law al qaeda affiliates are particularly gaining ground in molly, especially as france withdraws its forces in response to the military. coups in bama co, the jihadists are already turning the country into a launching pad for attacks throughout the region. these groups goals aren't limited to africa. so if the mission was due from the start, then how did the methods used by the us play a role? well, for starters, the u. s. pledge to bring freedom and democracy to nations without any understanding of the countries they were invading. and their aggressive strategy of force military intervention, combined with nation building led to d stabilization that allowed corruption and extremism to run rampant from saddam hussein and iraq to mom, r gadhafi and libya, every government overthrow the u. s. supported went on to have devastating long term consequences for the country it targeted. and despite all of the money spent
9:25 am
in the name of military and humanitarian aid, the regular destruction of communities and the increase in bombing campaigns over the years, fuel to worse living conditions and more poverty. as a result, the people who lived in the countries invaded bond and occupied by the us are more likely to hate, resent, and even consider attacks against americans. for example, when a pakistani american man tried to bomb time square in new york city back in 2010, he said he was attempting to respond to u. s. foreign policy in the middle east. i want to plead guilty 100 times because unless the united states pulls out of afghanistan and iraq until they stopped drone strikes in somalia, pakistan and yemen and stop attacking muslim lands. we will attack the united states and be out to get them. it's a war and i am a part of it. and while the u. s. bombing campaigns have since been reduced, the government installed by the u. s. have proved that they are unable to exist without constant us support. that was, of course,
9:26 am
the case in afghanistan were the nato back government fell in a matter of just 10 days. the u. s. then turned its back on the country, replacing billions of dollars in aid with crushing sanctions, will lead to a devastating humanitarian crisis. and most notably the same group that was defined as a terrorist organization and targeted for 20 years by the u. s. is now back in charge . the war on terror came full circle when the afghan government flood and the taliban took control of the nation's capital. they had washington's policies to thing for the fact that after 2 decades, they were more powerful than they had been at any point since the war began. and it was that swift fall of the government, the u. s. built in a country, it poured trillions of dollars into that has become the picture of the u. s. war on terror. proving that no matter how many lives are lost, how much money is wasted, and how many countries are occupied by us troops. it won't bring it to the
9:27 am
existence of terrorism. and in many cases it's all of those factors that make the spread of terrorism, even worse. when you, thanks for joining us here in nazi international. we're back at the top of the out with all the very latest. ah, no mm. to come to the russian state. will never be as tight as on the nose landscape with within the $50000.00. okay. so mine is 2000 speedy. when else with we will van in the european union, the kremlin media machine, the state aunt, rush up to date and school, or t sputnik. even our video agency, roughly all band on youtube with
