the great 5 year company today. my name's unit o'neill, and this has been use our on our t international key at forces have made another attempt to seize this up erosion nuclear power plant. this by the team from the u. n. nuclear energy watchdog being at the side. that's according to the russian defense ministry, which claim some, $250.00 ukranian troops tried to cross the didn't emperor river and more than 40 boats on friday evening of the attempt was aborted, run, half of the vessels were hit by russian or worse strife. ukrainian trips also shell the plans territory on saturday nights, according to local authorities. they say the power lines were damaged, cutting off supplies to a section of the grid, which applies key of control during the nearby city of a nor guitar was targeted again as well. the local mer, say 5 civilian,

something killed by ukrainian shilling. in the past fortnight, o. d, mining operations continue in areas now under the control of russia. lead forces. this friday shows russian sufferers making safer school than the city of miss ed shelves in them against republic. the front line has not moved westward from where an r t r a big crew sent this report to different of the hurts. if you roads along the dumbass front lines are littered with land mines. it's important to move carefully . ukrainian artillery shell and rains down not only upon the front, but also over flows into residential districts of cities and towns, the fighting rages on as russian lead forces concentrate on protecting the lugen school public and prepared a battle over the strategic city of sola dar, in neighboring done ask. the goal is to establish control over all of the done bass

and secured the liberation of law ganske. the russian lead forces are working on destroying ukrainian military fortifications, to open up those areas and facilitate advances on to those positions. here. another tactic is needed to protect the soldiers from ukraine's chaotic, like hillary shelling with the enemy. artillery is working so we must move very carefully her the grinning troops used drones to support our positions. we are constantly on the attack, but we continue to take out their artillery units, home portal to adjust the troops here are looking forward not to the few meters that salaried them from achieving their goal with me. but rather to restoring the piece that has been lost here over the years and lifting the long time blockade that has divided the john bass watershed, groaning archie, who guys can another story to bring you to day? russia say that it will convene a meeting of the signatories of the biological weapons convention. next week. it's

after moscow accuse washington and key of violating the convention with the activities of their bio bora trains. cheryl, this is where i'm going to skip total us spending on biological programs in ukraine have exceeded $250000000.00 up to the extension of the bio lab network, which allows the creation in storage and bio weapons components with threats and rushes, military security. the violence activity in the so called reform program, the ukrainian health care system conducted by the us have led to the uncontrolled rise of cases of dangerous infectious diseases. but i was just, well question. well, among the concerns voice by moscow is that around 50 bio labs are located near russian borders on points to a rise in the number of infectious diseases in its territory close to those areas. russia also claims the u. s. lead research doesn't address ukraine's health care

problems, as it's not aimed at tackling those ailments currently spreading in ukraine. west coast live now to thomas ro per thomas is an author and independent war reporter thomas. always good to have you on the program, but particularly today because i believe you've conducted an investigation, a bite, the pentagon, by a lapse in ukraine. what was your main finding? ah, well, the thing is these informations which were denied in the us after the bidding of the russian operation. they were in earlier times open in the, in the net. so you could see the information on the pentagon on the side of the pentagon. so it was open and i made another research last year about another topic us, which is connected with that. and i for a very big database tenant of saw thousands objects. and when the operation started and brush asset base, something in ukraine, i just opened our database and we checked it out. after half an hour i got

everything which russia is now doing last month's publishing. um yeah, if there's a danger under we have things like i'm most resistant illnesses diseases which are found and ukrainian soldiers, the russians. for example, the said this declare this on 7th of june, which we could say is rational propaganda. but there, on 10th of june, the german mac inside, the journal also published the same. a data from bundis were doctors who were working with won't it? are you credit soldiers? so we have the confirmation that there's obviously were things done with ukrainian soldiers infecting them with some motor resistant diseases, which is by experiments with go with people extraordinary claims with the u. s. reportedly planning to transfer their bio labs as well. thomas, from conflict,

written ukraine to other countries like bulgaria, the check republic. do you think that could pose any threat to those countries or indeed their neighbors? yeah, it will, i ever well we have this, these american bio lips and strange things to put this way happened. we had this in, in georgia with the center of the last sent on the and yet to bliss. oh, we have this in ukraine. we're, as the russians today, again repeated because there are unusual diseases after the american started the programs. and so this is something normal way it's dangerous. washington previously said that it's had been investing in ukraine's health care system. i'm trying to bring around reforms and not that that seem to be the guise of what is happening here. what do you say when you hear that when you hear us

officials saying it's all about the health care, it's all about moving the country forward and helping them with that with elements in the country that people there might be suffering from. i'm yeah, well i don't want to use hard words so, but, but it's not true. and if it would be a question of a healthy health system, it would be the job of the american health ministry. dr. voucher and all these guys, you know, this would be a health system, but it's standard on pentagon is not responsible for health system. a pentagram is responsible for weapons and so make it clear. no defense ministry is responsible for the health system anywhere. this is the work of them health ministry. so and then if they are so peaceful as they claim, why didn't they allow international controls and their laboratories, why are they working with illnesses like able are? this is not russian propaganda. you can see it in the email of hunter biden,

which published from the notebook from hell from the laptop. and there are emails between hunter biden and meter b auto, who's working in ukraine unable i and they had emails where they said, let's discuss this topic. so and, and it will as not in illness, which is normal for you, craig, so it's not about health system, but about health care. what i'm going to speculate a little bit on my part. do you think the u. s. could use the ukranian battlefields to test their a legit, bio weapons they could and you know, the thing is the problem, the progress they're working on their secret. so yeah, i have to rely on what the russians are publishing. i know from my research for my own research, i know the finance is who is working there, the companies and the people. i know that myself, but the progress of course, a secret and the rest of the americans could do that. they did it in the past. there was chemicals like infecting people and what my life thing with with syphilis and so on. this experience would've done in earlier times,

published by washington. it's not russian propaganda and nobody was punished. so there is no reason to think that there stop this kind of work. thomas, thanks for breaking all that done 1st and what is an extraordinary work? well done in your own, where thomas roper and author and war corresponded live on or to the funeral ceremony for the former soviet leader mikhail gorbachev has taken place in moscow. the 1901 year old, passed away on tuesday after a prolonged illness. a host of political figures came to pay their respects, including the hungarian prime minister victor, or a former russian president, dmitri marietta and the busters from the number of the countries. hundreds of ordinary russians also lined the streets to say their goodbyes to the last of the u . s. s. in the ceremony that lasted more than 3 hours was the civil furnace. i came because this is the last page of a play that has already been written. it is impossible to assess this period

unambiguously. but it was very colorful and indeed we started as like we talked being call the on smiley him best when you're in asia. thank you call that he was a very decent plan for me. he was the rest worsley down the country for scheduling for but i wanted to do a lot. so he failed. but i'm grateful for him trying. i can ambiguous attitude towards gorbachev specific, but i've always liked it. as i get older, i understand how important his personality was for the development of the country. go much often a lot. he laid the foundations in with a free democratic russia. were mikhail gorbachev called to see the world as a single unity not separated communist and capitalist countries. the soviet leader implemented the spread of social, political, and economic reforms he was hailed in the west. but the changes lead to a collapse in industry and dire shortages of consumer goods at home. he's also blame by many and post soviet countries for the conflicts that erupted following

their chaotic break up of the u. s. s. r. and that all made mikhail gorbachev. one of the most prominent political figures on the world stage, the previous century. ah, thousands of argentinians have been marching in buenos aires, in solidarity with vice president. christina kirschner for a gunman, apparently tried to assassinate her. on thursday night. the crowds condemned political violence with political leaders from around the world condemning the attack on the former resident chris, there herself has recently been struggling with a raft of corruption charges, but could lunch her in prison from worth on a decade. the 69 year old supporters maintain that the allegations are politically

motivated. as the south american countries travels with political polarization and a crippling economic crisis, our t spanish corresponded ignacio job. yeah. as the story when abuse has had a pretty, it's getting cold. and when a series but tensions at the plaza de mayo or hot as people continue to gather, demonstrating that honesty of people and their support of christina kirschner out of the it must be said that a large rally was already expected in support of kirk not because of the court case in which he was accused of corruption, been the case as seen, internal political conflict to intensify an incitement of hate against the former head of the country. get it. unfortunately, this turned into an assassination attempt. let's hear what the people in the streets are saying about the incident. i'm talking to pretty yeah, no voice, we need a i can't i show c court for christina after an old said and done to her for years . so christina, is the embodiment of love for the nation. what of yesterday's attack is too much

and everyone has come here. no, they were to support her. okay. is that since asked you on the, i'm in fact, it seems to me that i've been targeted at bassetti in which i'm not on the a blow to her my to a blow to democracy and will not back a number of politicians have already been able to visit kirschner, for example, the governor of the province of buenos aires alex kissell off a man very close to christina church now. and he said she was doing very well despite yesterday's events. yeah. but the governor also said that what happened was not just about one person and should be assessed in the context of hate speech that is long existed in argentina, no dog countries. president alberta fernandez called the situation very celia says he stepped in down. what happens was very serious that more serious than anything has happened since we returned to democracy, davos a that we're following the investigation close. i'm going to go to the judge maria capitol chatting a couple issue the several certain widespread residents of the brazilian men o apple who had attempted to take the life of the advice to present data. it should

be stressed that president hernandez has asked the judge to ensure that nothing happens to the life of cortina attacker in order to establish the reasons for what happened and prevent a repetition of such events. who knows with us. and i mean, does police say that would be a suff and is a 35 year old brazilian mom had previously been arrested in march, were hurrying a knife march last year. i should have his apartment in when his ari's was reportedly rated. after this week's attack with the bun, $100.00 bullets find there, it said at if hop and evil morale as the long time. former president of argentina's neighbour bolivia, claimed external forces could be behind the attempted assassination. they were a bug last week. we were informed that legal proceedings were initiated. believe the prosecutor had requested 12 years in prison in the i assume that the united states as decimals were delivered when he left. his parties are increasingly winning election. the u. s. can no longer stop us. it's not, they can no longer stop this democratic uprising of the peoples of latin america.

so now they resort to such attacks. we all support christina. oh, christina is not alone. and while details into the assassination attempt continue to merge latin america, expert wolf, church for mental believes it's another example of history repeating itself. this she, the on, we believe this assassination attempt resembles candidates in 1963 holes occurred when he was the only serious politician in the united states. so he advocated peace created, necessary conditions for that while anglo saxon financial circles were fooling, and ward are fucked, and dragging the country deeper into the vietnam one. 0 yeah. i see the need to draw this parallel confetti as vice president shuttle kirschner is able to foster piece democracy, employment, and integrity in the global economy without harming national sovereignty. for politics, challenge those financial leads which am to impose their own terms. this assassination

attempts should not be perceived as a random act committed by sick man. as was the talk after kennedy's killing, we should examine this case as it is the only way to avert similar political assassinations in the future. don't waste energy announced the plea of this swift government as it launches a voluntary energy saving campaign, amid potential shortages. however, some politicians are fighting back by announcing a petition to keep nuclear power plant set for decommissioning open to keep people warm this winter switch. len decided to shut down it's nuclear reactors 5 years ago following the nuclear accident in japan's fukushima plants over thus far. it succeeded in shutting down only one non political group by the name stop. blackouts is fighting to gather 100000 signatures to ensure the remaining nuclear plants stay in operation. but that could actually take some time as the results of the petition

come through. it is seeking to amend the country's constitution making. bern officially responsible for guaranteeing the energy supply. meanwhile, in france, the media is a nice the notion of carbon cards as a way to control energy consumption up in the context of carbon neutrality. we've heard that term quite a bit. now the card is a system of ratio quarters and aims to limit c o 2 consuming actions of individuals for those whose consumption exceeds the allocated limits. there is a prospect of buying energy from people who have on use quota credits, thus providing in theory, an escape from strict limitations. so it's all happening on the energy front. let's dell of into it's with a guest. they shall break more political commentator joining us from paris and martin dolder associates just and human rights lawyer from germany are both very welcome to the program. gentlemen don't,

can we kick off with you on the swift politicians campaign? first, stop block guides. indeed seeking to prevent nuclear from being shut out in order to guaranteed adequate power supplies. if not this winter, then maybe the next. is it important that they succeed? yes, i think so. i mean, you see, it seems to me that we're living the consequences of a policy with just initiating the german gains but imitated elsewhere. hm. of france and switzerland, which is to get rid of nuclear energy. and of course, then the automatically, well, depending on gas and oil and also on call, i mean, i notice that in germany, you know, for example, there is a cold plant which produces more c, o 2, then all the airplanes in france. now people want to take measures against the airplanes of the private jets, which is

a very small fraction of the plains. and that one. well, one, you know, cold plan we'll use is mostly about 64 times in germany. so it seems to me that you have to keep a sense of proportion. i mean, it seems to me that the real problem is twofold. one is the abandon, the fact that we have the nuclear energy. and the other is, of course, the sanctions against russia. the sanctions are not working, they are not stopping the will, not destroying the russian economy. that is fine, africa needs. and therefore we should just drop them. but it's impossible to plug them because that would mean that the up in union need to, et cetera. have to admit that they made a mistake and they made a mistake in the school. they made a mistake before the war. they refused to talk to the russian. they refused to consider the means every month. and we are being the price of all those who stays with how the possible even to say. because if you say, then you open up again, this thing in the west and just impossible to discuss. and to me, to obvious, at least in the short term in the long term. indeed we need a renewal,

but the most in it, which is the other countries development china. martin, you won't have a word on the nutrition. yes, i can say that i agree with my friends rather than click the energy crisis, which is caused by the sanctions. the thank you don't work and it's not the right way. and he's right everyone who is really trying to discuss what's going on and making proposals which could work. it's denounced at the pro park. i'm just doing something that is no real analytic way of discussing the meta in the mall. and i think the energy crisis could be overcome very easily stopping distinctions open no thing to which you know, is in that by the german government. and then in germany at these people have no problems with energy. i don't believe so much in nuclear energy. i think. ready

opening not 3 to and the sanctions will be very good solution for you as well. martin then on the overall situation, you'll be well aware that people across europe and small business owners, for instance, in bigger businesses, to our opening, their bills in the morning. and just being shocked by this size of what they have to pay will energy conservation measures such as caps on room and water heaters, rationing even plan block types, head off shortages? are they the answer. ready no, there is no individual stuff. all that i think there is the only solution to end up the sanctions. and to get a step by step way of handling the energy crisis, which is now going on for small, small craftsmen or small communities for individual how also it's not

possible to overcome the energy crisis. because there was any way, not the main uses of the energy to be industry. and if we go on like that, the industry will call up as well. and this is self inflicted crisis here in germany, where the government doesn't take the interest of the population. but the interest of some trans atlantic policy in europe and the u. s. government, so they should make a u turn. otherwise we will get into the cries, the citizens who are already here. go ahead, john. when you see it's going to market well, because i followed up because i'm quite old. i followed the evolution of the game party in germany in the green party started it being a very pacific party and they wore a me size and so on. and now they're still on the home completely and you have their book is diminished to her. to hang a fair in germany, we should clean. and now she said that for several years they are going to start to

train by punishing harsh. i was there not even finishing that. in fact, if you lifted the sanction that would decrease the price of energy. and that was actually her pressure because her shot makes a lot of money from the fact that the price up in high. i mean, i mean it's a total absurdity, but the, the fact that this is, i'm of these people are just this, well, you just let this is and i just don't believe it. and they don't know how the fact that the specificity movement has become the more atlantis is movement. the paul paul need to them or call us against any. she says that the demonstration does treat them, germans won't be happy, but the priorities to it came. she selected in germany, paid by german text bales. nevertheless, a priority is actually in the united states. and when she go, she says ukraine. but in fact, in the united states, john, just to keep it here. for another point, do you think the new has being too aggressive in shutting down its,

its own coal and gas infrastructure already? we're leaders gathering glasgow last year and for cop $26.00 and said that the world, dirtiest fossil fuel call was dead and buried. but now we're seeing quite the opposite . are we not of gus. you see the problem is that they make 1st of all they make this business. so she'll do us an absolute priority. we can be discussed because the problem is, for example, of county like trends in trends is a huge as dish and the trends on the produce is one percent of the global c o. 2. not counting in both the 2 to a but nevertheless, if the production domestic pleasure, c o 2, that's one of them. and that there's negligible effect on the temperatures. so instead of being optional and keeping orders of magnitude or relying on whether you already have name the nuclear i was or developing the same. so if you need to further advance or which i think want to do,

do you know because they should themselves, in the food or in the head. and then of course go to the same just because of the same. you know that just a maximum amount of gold plans which are the, was from the seal to point of view. so this is martin may be energy crunch calls for reducing carbon emissions the aren't ceasing. in fact, it's going the opposite way. green politicians and france are demanding and i tried ban john was saying on private jets citing, they're oversize environmental footprint. but isn't europe too preoccupied with bonds? as a way of solving these problems, especially after 2 years of cov, it shut down, the industry is hurting. yes, i think the individual, addition of the problem is the problem as well. to my mind, to make much more sense to do the bring follow up industrialization of services of gender interest such as water supply, energy supply,

education and the health system. they belong to the handle to society. they handle the states because we see in the new new river formation of capitalism. it clearly has shown that the grief for profit of some big companies and their lobby is almost unlimited. and in any case, it leaks into a company through this practice. and now to give the whole package on the shoulders of individuals will not cost anything good. we have to steer a proper and good energy supply. and so this of general interest replied by the state. i think it's the only solution and not doing some excuses with and lation of the problems. it's not the engine, little household doing the most carbon emissions. john. yeah. john interesting. i like that, but also also just to touch in one because we're just running out of time

a little bit. john, what do you make of the latest decision by the grip of 7 finance ministers to impose a price comp on russian oil the last few days? how relevant is, is the commitment given the growing unease over the energy shortages? i think it's very funny that these people who are from the mon, the least of the free market, and that's millions of people in misery because of their fanatic or believe in the free market. don't understand how it works. i mean, held the value, who fixes the price? if not, they go to my butcher and say, look, now i'm going to buy need to fix price. i go to the big g and i do that. i mean, makes no sense. did you say you don't? i mean, you don't want to be a certain amount that those are the amount of the person. so then we don't say you don't serve you. and again says to india, china and other counties and they don't need your help. that's where the big mistake of your quest, the thing that they're going to put in the minister of finance in fancy, they're going to show each knees. gotcha. is not on each knees and it's actually us,

we're on our knees now. maybe we should be able to even discuss it. we can discuss it. it's a scale this business of christ can be something that phrasing the phase of economics . one little one from the difficult point of view from the previous point of view. okay, very good. that's their point of view. gateway goes down how their system works. yet the bills keep coming and the sanctions do as well. gentlemen, we are right on time. we could continue this for quite some time. it's always enlightening. haven't you both on the program gene brick, more political commentator from paris and martin dodger sociologist and human rights lawyer from germany. thank you both today. during, during middle space ambulatory the story behind the resolved battalions grasp on a sprawling metal plant earlier in the ukraine conflict and how the factory and its hostages were eventually freed from the neo nazi grouping or short doc tried ad. ah,

this way give us a new yes. and is there any way to bump it up and when he does want to restore this more ritual to, than the public storage store or that was actually store worth of money and easy or the non us. that was more so it was gotten more scores in our stores in terms of another to this to get on with this. just get a bit so fit smith when we were in east new market. more with border. dunham is who i stay at to see us on up. um, so with this like we did some i didn't know if they were supposed to be doing you folks or you didn't barber. i wish this number that sink is but boot puzzle. still holding it. there so there's no way you can afford it. so.
