ah, a she, a nuclear power plant comes on to a fresh round of ukrainian shelling according to local officials with the attack following a previous tribe that left hundreds of thousands of people without electricity, shorter showers and cold. it also says that the latest solution to the snowballing energy crisis from european leaders, as they scrambled to fill up that gas bolt, the head of a wind. so with less skill from russia, due to the e, u, a e. remember, hungary approves the construction of 2 new nuclear reactors in the country by russia with hungary foreign minister, praising thanks to these 2 nuclear units,
5:01 pm
we can insure hungary energy security for the long term and protect the hungarian population with very well well, continue. this is alta international. what the latest was news update is good to happy with. the ukrainian military has once again, i can find these offered osha nuclear power plant that's according to local russian backs. officials who say the shell anchors hit an area used to store radioactive waste. authorities have not reported any increase in radiation levels at the site so far. ortiz ramon concert hall call this approach a nuclear power plant is under constant bombardment by the ukrainian military. we just heard this friday that at least for shelves that landed and was approaching nuclear power plant in an area than houses as storage unit for the
5:02 pm
radio. radioactive isotopes. however, the local authorities are reporting that at this moment, there is no nuclear threat. and there is no threat of a radioactive leak. now, like i said, as upper origin euclid power plant, one of the, well, the biggest nuclear power plants in europe has been under constant sub on borman. so recently, and we've been getting quite a lot of conflicting information from the ukranian authorities regarding a power cars from his approach in nuclear power plant. now initially, ukrainian authorities as stated that the power supply from a there was completely cut off for all of the crating customers. now we're getting reports that sir old ukrainians are indeed getting electricity from a per rogia. now the plant itself is under control of the
5:03 pm
a russian armed forces at the moment. but like i said, it's constantly being shelled by ukraine nationalists. and those forces are located just across the river from this nuclear power plant. now, according to local authorities, in the most recent instance key, if used incendiary ammunition in order to target the plants. and that caused a forest fire near by. and that in turn, caused a power surge sure, which resulted in a cut off of electricity for hundreds of thousands of people in the ukraine. now, the fire was indeed promptly extinguished by the russian forces. and the power was resumed. alice here from the local authorities sharply from the vicinity of cielo, there were full foul eyes which went across the river to ukrainian control territory
5:04 pm
. and 3 of those power lines were destroyed when our engineers tried to fix them. there were shelled of course we will not risk her. people like that. again. the city was up rosier, which is on the ukrainian control heavily depends on this energy source. the city's industry households. everything is linked to lisa rosier power plant. plus the households in the city have been cut off from the central heating system, which increases electricity consumption and it makes the ukrainian side impulse is electricity from 3rd parties. now ukrainian authority, sir said earlier that says upper roger nuclear power plant has completely stopped functioning. however, that was a very unlikely because nuclear power plant just can be simpler, stopped. ah, and so started, it's now clear that sir gary cuts were only temporary, and electricity supply has now been resumed. now all that's happening despite the
5:05 pm
fact that some of this energy source is constantly bombarded by artillery attacks by the ukranian nationalists. now are russian officials. they're calling for a cease fire in this area, calling for cease fire against the nuclear power plants. and they are expecting experts from the un nuclear watchdog to visit very soon and to make their own conclusions. as remark mentioned, the i. e. a has indicated their plans to send a delegation to the plant within the next few days. however, russia's foreign ministry has worn they, kiev is doing everything to disrupt such inspection. meanwhile, we got some inside from alexi and pillow. gov, a former worker at the station, who says that any further ukrainian shelling would meet constant blackouts for millions of citizens, hook up a missed answer never in human history. fortunately has active military action been
5:06 pm
waste near nuclear power plant. and is the 1st time that a party to the conflict i ukraine has deliberately targeted a nuclear power plant with the intention of hitting this most vulnerable pass the containers with the most dangerous and the most radioactive materials, of course, weren't built a sustained attacks by a multiple roggette launch system or high caliber artillery. there is a very high chance that sooner or later there'll be a direct hit on one of them before the conflict. these approach nuclear plants powered 20 percent of all ukraine. every 5th kilowatt hour was produced there. of course consumption has reduced dramatically in ukraine now because a lot of industries thought and masses of people left. it was only because of this that the ukraine in electrical system didn't collapse and thursday, when there was a temporary power cut. so ukraine things by hitting the plant, there won't be a boomerang effect against them, but there will be and for the millions of people living in the region. if the shelling continue, it will mean constant blackouts. and for a long time,
5:07 pm
cold showers lower indoor temperatures and dog shop, windows and streets as when a unit is preparing their citizens floor due to the unfolding energy crisis. european government taking drastic measures to slash electricity consumption, which could significantly affect hundreds of millions of people. now germans will have to sit in cold offices and war passed unless buildings and monuments in the evenings while the fins would have to reduce the time they shower and use digital devices. as, as electricity prices are rising significantly and households to the u. k. will pay 3 times more for heating than before. is a rush is fault that according to german chancellor la shawna saying 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 blame. the daughter eva is everywhere. people talk, i'm reports how insane. he says that we had trade for decades. that there was
5:08 pm
economic exchange roles taught a mistake was, i don't think it was a mistake. westmark is putin who made a mistake when, instead of putting the interests of his own country 1st, either unless he will satisfy his own imperial, my to romania, of the expense of the russian citizens who will suffer the most can the end. 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 mac hall, 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
5:09 pm
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 were the choice of the you and it's member states just went along with it. as for schultz accusing putin of imperial ambitions. well, what about the european union's imperialism? that imposed sanctions on these on 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 without any democratic consultation. now, how is that not imperialism? as marshal saying that protein quote, made a mistake than wired germans in europeans, the ones who are paying the price. now russia is pirouetted away from the west towards the global south and asia,
5:10 pm
while 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 is 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 ideology 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 schultz is desperate to find a scapegoat for the fact that governments from spain to finland are now barging into the private sphere to control room and water temperatures and reading their hands over potential unrest and power blackouts. perhaps he should start with those who successfully convinced the you to jump off that sanctions cliff. and that's not russia. that's washington. and while europeans have to tighten that belt,
5:11 pm
c u. s continues to import goods from russia and associated press investigation shows them more than 3600 shipments of various russian goods have arrived in u. s. ports since the start of the war and ukraine. and that save a $1000000000.00 a month. according to the article, the us has imported more than 1000 shipments of wood, about a 1000 shipments of metals on more than 300 shipments of food, working out to literally a 1000000 tons of russian goods. we spoke with a political analyst who notes that with such actions, the u. s. shows it superior attitude, i, for its own allies, whom it treats as poems. i think the logic here is that these standards apply to europe. that applies to the u. s. colonies. such as a, europe, australia, canada, but the united states. politicians are going to do whatever they need to maintain power to consolidate their power within their sphere of influence. and they're
5:12 pm
perfectly willing to sacrifice the colonies, the lower level countries. within the u. s. empire, the people in europe have to understand that they will be treated as an enemy of the united states. leadership will smile, you know, and say they're on their, on their side, but the u. s. doesn't really have any friends when it comes to seeing world competition and power. the reality is that the leaders of europe know something that the people don't know. and that is that the european countries have no independence or sovereignty. and the leaders know that, and they're perfectly happy to acquiesce to whatever the united states leaders want them to do. while european leaders continue to blame russia for the energy crisis to new russian made nuclear power generators on to be installed. i say hungarian power plants, the head of russia was that tom alexi nick should have called this a step of mutual trust at the theatre. levy is restored here. this is the 1st
5:13 pm
license in recent history obtained by rosa tom in the european union. this is very important, these nuclear blocks already have an output in the russian federation. they have been working effectively for several years. we are building them in a number of countries. we. this is environmentally friendly and inexpensive electricity. we also have some of the most economically attractive indicators, right. we have been co operating with hungary for many years and there are plans to expand cooperation. making such a decision shows a high level of trust towards our technologies and specialists to them. for the 1st time in recent history, russian nuclear power unit thought to be installed in a european union member nation construction work could start. as soon as october, moscow in budapest share a long term history of mutual cooperation in the energy field, developing plans for future projects. a hungarian foreign minister said the agreement to the turning point that in shall with his country's energy security. as
5:14 pm
it might do dianda in hungary, we have been working for a long time to expand the existing pocket nuclear power plant with 2 new powerful units. what does a move this work has come to a new turning point? as hundreds, even thousands of permits are needed for the construction of a new nuclear power plant. thanks to 2 new nuclear units. we can insure hungary energy security for the long term and protect the hungarian population from sharp fluctuations and international energy markets. we will therefore ensure a policy of reducing utility costs, obtaining a construction license as a major milestone, a turning point, and that strengthens our hope that by 2030, the nuclear power plant will begin its activity at hawkinsville. george sunny released a senior research fellow at they for the global policy institute of london, se hungary leda is simply trying to do right by his own citizens. nick the orbit has repeatedly said that he thinks that the sanction policy against russia
5:15 pm
is absolutely ridiculous and destructive all the europe in the economy or man. also obtain the call about the earth. the unit is supposed to cover all oil in boards from russia by the end of the year, but hungry got a call about going to go on. he's made clear that he thinks it's just, that's ridiculous and that his job as a prime minister is to look after the interest of the people who have focused on carriers. nato is turning a size to the north head of the military alliance. here installs in burg, made his 1st official visit to the canadian arctic despite nathan, having no official business in the region. according to him, a rush of war and ukraine is a game changer and it's up to nato to step up its game. increasing parts of the arctic will be ice free in summer. this is unlocking opportunities for shipping
5:16 pm
routes, natural resources in economic development. but it also raises the risk of tensions . authoritarian regimes are clearly willing to use military intimidation or aggression to achieve their aims. at the same time, they're stepping up their activities and interest in the arctic. thornburg warned about the threat posed by russia and china stressing the need for so called euro atlantic security. he says that russia has increased this military activity in the arc take place in the u. s. at risk. well, accusing china of planning a new polis. so close nato plans to set up its activities in the region as a response. but the vice chair of the swedish piece council doesn't believe the nato chief starboard is a liar, i think when he will make us believe that they have now been in the north. for the 1st time. there has been yearly, military exercises in the entire north main
5:17 pm
door has never brought stability. nato is a war alliance because they do has, is not defending anything. they are an attack force, canada in the u. s. bidding in the arctic. the u. s. don't care about anything but defeating russia, that was o crane. among other things is about as when a defeating russian newburgh faced the west ones to plunder the arctics resources under the ice when it's melting. the thing on the world's oil is there, and the 3rd of the world's gas, so is under the ice. so it's not only
5:18 pm
a lot strategic am thinking. it's also all rubbing their area from resources as they tend to do from the west, poor europe. what will they do? we know the, him not the resources. and so they are show out. so i think they have to do everything they can in their minds to get hands on their sources in there are might be a way of helping the west in their sense, made a predicament by being so arrogant and right out stupid, ah, french presidents, micron is in gas, which algeria seeking some men, strange diplomatic ties between france and its former colony as europe faces. this
5:19 pm
was to energy crisis in decades. french officials, the visit, is all about politics and improving relations unknown. any deals however, the crone is a company on the trip by kathy mcgregor, the chief executive of a key, french utility company in july, italian prime minister mario druggie, made a similar trip to algeria to negotiate a gas deal. as you were, p and country scout. the globe full not to gas sources as an alternative to russian energy. some economic expert, same across visit, is also a gas trip in disguise. franca algerian relations sour over the last year. us off, the emmanuel macro reportedly questioned whether algeria had actually existed as a nation before france colonized the country. mcconnell's a report of the accused algeria government of rewriting history and inciting hatred towards france. in response, algeria withdrew it some buster from paris. according to the french treasury

5:21 pm
a guess towards on to them on to around 9 percent. just not that significant to be look at how russia has been important just to those countries, you know, but it will somehow ease the pressure that frances country facing. i don't think any country that colonize another country will see that country as being equal to just as one of a foreign is up to a colony, to still more sources and to take for them. and i think that's been the mentality of the with never seen, ever. conditions has been equal to the surgeon get multiple r c around foreign minister has met with molly's government, healing a trip to africa. english 2 countries agreed to boost the economic and defense ties . molly has praised iranian efforts to confront western sanctions with their to run official emphasizing the fight back. the west nonsensical sanctions policy has failed and nations will move forward with perseverance, stability, and self confidence. molly's foreign minister praised
