many find themselves worlds apart. we choose to look so common ground. ah, [000:00:00;00] with bloody mit through tin arrives in rushes far east to visit the vall stop 2022 military drills and of course, sees that through. this is one of the ship's main artillery batteries. the a 190, it's effective against to other c targets as well as air targets and a pack such a punch that we're not even going to be able to be on this deck. when it fires. faith, an economic forum and says,

is 2nd day in russia's far east with 70 countries taking part and enhancing asian economic cooperation on the agenda. and israel's military refuses to further investigate the killing of an al just there are generally satisfied the idea of admitting that the soldiers may have accidentally shot with thanks for joining us. has just gone 6 am on tuesday morning here in the russian capital. my name is peter scott and wherever you join us from, welcome to the program. letting me of putin has arrived in the far east of russia to attend the vall stock, 2022 military drills with india, and china in attendance that says, russia's pacific fleet holds maneuvers. ortiz don colson, takes a voyage on one of the frigates, the mighty marshal shop, a sneak of one of the crown jewels of russia's pacific fleet. it's

a multi purpose frigate fully loaded with anti ship rockets, anti air artillery batteries, high power torpedoes, and long range tactical missiles. and today, we're going to see this behemoth of a ship in action. while we're just heading out from the harbor in russia's far eastern city of ludovic, stock right now. as you can see behind me, we're gonna spend hours today on this enormous frigate witnessing the naval portion of russia's joint military exercises. vol, stock, 2022. now those 2 ships you could see behind me right now just carried out a simulated evasion of an enemy rocket strike against them. that big cloud of smoke was actually put up by those ships in this simulation to deflect the possibility of being hit by these missiles. ah, the ship is equipped with 2 helicopters, one of them. you can't see right now. it's still in the hanger and that's for saving. any sailors that may have fallen into the water,

but the one you see behind me is actually an anti submarine helicopter. it takes off and seeks its enemy submarines within the water to identify targets for the ship itself. and we're actually going to see this guy set off into the sky right now with this the actual equipment that the sailors used to physically understand where the ship is in relation to the rest of the ocean, of course. and this information gets sent to the command center where we were before so they can understand how to chart the vessel and where to bring the ship into the ocean. this is one of the ship's main artillery batteries the a 190. it's effective against other c targets as well as air targets and impacts such a punch that we're not even going to be able to be on this deck when it fires. what we're here right now at the helm of this ship and we have keep our voices down, of course, because everyone here is hard at work steering the ship. but this is basically

where all of the navigation decisions are made. and it's interesting is that on this ship and probably on a lot of other ships, the navigation is done both on physical maps and on electronic maps. we can see here that this is where the ship actually came out of from over here, we were told that this is a blood of a stork and we're actually traveling outwards into the ocean as we speak. now, this map is not actually big enough to show the entire course that we're going to be going on, but, and they have another paper map that they're going to replace that with later on. and there you can also see the electronic version of that up as well. done them probably doing this. that's how we live quite comfortably here. i'll beds through ventilation systems. so the temperature is always good. there is a tv communication systems. we go to see for 2 months, maximum and our free time. we watch t, thee play sports, fish, all sorts of stuff. some comrades also bake home made bread and other food is

delicious too. of course, when we go to see we miss home, most of all our wives and children, it doesn't mean that we want to come assure no, we just just miss our families, relatives. i have dreamed of becoming a sailor since my childhood at the court. i was trapped in the navy as i wanted, and then i decided to continue and sign the contract. i just like everything here, a day out at sea with the marshal shop. ashley cove was more than enough to understand that this is one powerful ship with a more than capable crew. donald quarter r t. c of a horse. with the movements awards d dollarization is apparently intensifying all over the world. that's according to a prominence russian official who was speaking of the eastern economic forum which has been held in the far eastern city of vladivostok with 68 countries. participating. the ortiz asana, boycott reports from the forum. what's surprising is that it's not the only be

asian gas car being welcome here, but also a number of visitors from, from the west, from australia, from friends, from germany, from the united kingdom and from the united states. and it's surprising because as i'm sure, you know, this conference takes place in the aftermath of the please, the serial rating relations between the east and west. not only between russia and the west over there were a new plan, but also between china and washington. and some of european allies, there is an increased naval activity in the trade of taiwan and the fear in the tensions they may erupt into kinetic conflicts. nevertheless, some of that will be definitely discuss a bit of the palace today. but the focus of this conference is primarily as it has always been on the economic corporation. and this is also a testament to how differently the east west understand the so called p with to

asia for the americans. and for the western, as in general, it's more about putting pressure on asia and sending more troops to the asian region for the russia. it's primarily about economic development and not only regional development. it's also about domestic developments. 50 years ago, the decision was made to put effort into bringing out this region of russia and also using that moment to develop corporation with russia and neighbors. and i think that's trinity paid off handsomely. they because the region is unrecognizable. it's booming with energy booming with development, and it also brings a lot of eastern attention here. and i'm many people here wondering what would be your race and the development of your raisin. the interconnection of this whole continent can take place without europe because europe has made

a decision to extricate itself, not only from russian and into social sources. but there's also talks about liberating a european corporation with china. and there are any questions about the weather here of can stand on its own team. now, on the, from this conference, volume important, the russian president was also asked about, um, well, at least according to russian view, inconsistent energy decisions. and this is what he had to say when you got that extra on my julia growing. i should book some countries made huge mistakes looking ahead and making decisions. god did buy noble goals, which then became impossible to implement and lead to what the consequences if you firstly receive cheap brushing guess and then you could have supplies and immediately turn on everything. then this creates enormous problems, including with cold generation. this is of course not the best option for solving global problems. the reliance on the so called cheap or i should say affordable russian energy sources wasn't just

a political fall. it was the whole basis for the european and especially german economy. that foundation real somehow have to be replaced, so it's not only about getting through the upcoming winter, it's really about how the european economy will be functioning. but to be honest, that's not the uh, part of the russian concern. i mean, many of those energy supplies have been redirected to both china, india and some other countries. and again, that's a testament to how differently the east and west understand the goals of both politics and safe policy because the russians and the chinese are very proud about leaving dive people out of poverty investing in infrastructure, developing human capital. whereas what we fear for western capitals is from western policy makers, is that they are ready to subject populations to suffering. they are ready to reside over. steve deterioration in living standards for the sake of seeing that

policy is realized and who will we'll have the time hotel to discuss bilateral relations between russia and india. we can cross live now to retired. major general and director of the united services institution of india. b k sharman because of a welcome swati international what can you tell you're waiting on for giving me this opportunity? now you're very welcome. what can you tell us about the nature of the military cooperation currently going on between russia and china? has it been affected by the war? and we obviously know that india is looking to dies, diversify its arm supplies a focus, more on domestic production. yes, that is true, that india is trying to diversify its defense requirements. but notwithstanding that russia has been and will remain the most

reliable defense possibly of india. even at this juncture, when we have dr. declaring some weapon systems from the west, 64 percent of miller t austin, still comes from russia. and what is more important about this relationship is that it is strategic in nature and of our show has been providing us the transport of technology and joint production of some of the strategic veterans. so, notwithstanding, the european crisis, i think are, are dependent on interdependence with russia is going to continue. while at the same time, we do require a multitude of weapons from higher technology weapons from other countries. so we are looking for those sources, but that is not at the force offered

a deep to military relationship with russia. i will see that video recently. we have signed miller, d technical cooperation with russia. 2021 to 2031. and under the ages of that cooperation, we are looking forward to some big ticket weapons coming to us like as $400.00 is now coming. similarly, we're looking for the nuclear submarines improvement of 3 gates and also many other weapon systems. lake tanks attack helicopters and whole lot of other references. and the low side, the corporation isn't going anywhere. anytime soon. i thought was quite a busy week over in vladivostok, we've seen the, the vos talked 2022 military exercises which are including participation of russia . india and china, and it's quite interesting that india and china are both taking place, taking pos, excuse me, in this event, especially given the current tensions in the himalayas. what would you say about

that? a see, india has always taken then independent, stand on these issues. it is spec to off what has happened internationally and the kind of sanctions that have been imposed against russia. india you would have seen by virtue of her warding at the united nations. re taken a very neutral stance on back. similarly, even though we have problems with china on our borders, but that doesn't prevent us fall from cooperating in a mighty little florida, such as shanghai cooperation, organization feast. we should see these effect sizes. and similarly, our participation in the washington exercises now. it's also an act of solidarity with russia when it is passing through some difficult times. and we are in the process of, you know, in, under the rubric of this try later,

cooperation develop better complement, edit deep and interdependence and interoperability and learn, learn from each other's best. now you mentioned this in one of your previous answer that india is looking to develop his military. that includes its navy, obviously. notably there was the launch of the ins, the crunch just a few days ago. india's 1st domestic terrier. now what message is the country looking to send to the world with this aircraft carrier a c. india has always been expeditionary to develop its own indigenous program. today we are under the rubric of autumn ned, but part of that means self reliant. india. re giving more and more embraced us to indeed united nation all motion to help from transport of technology from other

foreign countries like russia. so this is significant step and self confidence and self reliance. but much of it has happened with the help of russia because you were able to provide us a very important aircraft carrier, which was the mainstay of our navy. and i'm sure you also helping us in the modernization of free gates. so while we are talking about indigenous ation, but our complementarity on symbiotic relationship with russia remains as far as our signaling to the world is concerned. we know that china is about creating 6 aircraft in the coming decade and all and india would also like to have a certain degree of freedom of maneuver and certain influence married diamond limbs in the indian organ region. so therefore, we would increase the number of aircraft carriers and submit in fleet and other

vessels in times to come. suddenly one of the few countries with an aircraft carrier was such a large proportion being produced domestically the k. shaw. i'm a retired, major general and director of the united services institution of india. thank you very much for your time today. thank you very much. oh, the energy crisis continues to be a major talking point of the economic forum. russia has shut down its nordstrom one gas pipeline to germany for gas from says our maintenance reasons. they've been defects which it says cannot be fixed amid ongoing anti bush and sanctions. defects in the turbine engine are said to threaten the safety of the compressor station got from says that machine, oil leaks are common defects in this demons produced engines used in nod stream. now on the other hand, the energy so that they do not normally affect the operation of a turbine and can be sealed on site. the company also said it's ready to help and

that maintenance was excluded from anti russian sanctions. earlier criminal spokesman dominion called said the suspension of the pipeline was caused by western sanctions and emphasize the foreign restrictions all preventing the remaining turbine from being repaired. the problems with pumping gas arose due to the sanctions impose against our country and against a number of companies by western states, including germany in the u. k. there are no other reasons that would lead to the problems with pumping. of course one mobile unit remains operational and it malfunctions and a breakdown occurs there. and this leads to pumping coming to a halt given that the sanctions remain in place given that they make an absolute mess. legal om, practical in connection with a maintenance of all components. now we can hope that it is somehow possible to put it in order for this single unit. but of course you can see for yourself that the system had different opportunities to reserve gas. now because of the sanctions, these opportunities have disappeared. that is based on this one unit which already

needs serious maintenance. of course, the very sanctions that prevent maintenance which prevent units from being moved without appropriate legal guarantees which prevent them from giving those legal guarantees. and so on, it is the sanctions that western states have imposed to have created the situation we see now on the europe continues to suffer the reverberations of its sanctions on russian energy. the german capital was rocked by more protests with crowds taken to the streets to vendor anger at the government. enough is enough, was the main slogan of the processes. flemming, the policies of coalition partner the greens, with many waving flags and brandishing banners, denouncing politicians and nato. now the rallies, the latest in a series of protest, this if seen thousands states the streets across the country that's up to inflation shot through its highest level in almost 50 years in august. my processes are voicing anger that they can't afford to pay skyrocketing energy bills.

i just wanted to make a policy that leads to the economy, breaking piece by piece, leaving hundreds of thousands of people afraid of losing their jobs in a position that they do not even know how to pay their energy bills in winter. while also aware that such policies are being made at their expense that they do not accept it. but how could you know as a foreign minister? why this disastrous policy of this traffic like coalition work in terms of social policy and foreign policy. the greens continued into the disaster situation of this traffic light government. therefore, it is absolutely necessary to have organized protests. so from the left, the nation might la technical issues with an old stream pipeline may further exacerbated the economic crisis within the us where the euro has fallen below the dollar for the 1st time into decades. some european politicians are starting to acknowledge that the sanctions against russia aren't working and the lifting them would benefit some frustrated europeans. millions of germans will likely be happy

if their electricity costs go back down. it's clear that sanctions are not ending the war in ukraine. gas prom is using its record high profits to build gas pipelines to china. oil exports to asia have already increased. russia does not need the west to buy its raw materials. that the german industry is collapsing without cheap energy sources. and who is the laughing 3rd man in this fight? it's the united states who's hydraulic fracturing industry is making a profit of $200000000.00 on each liquefied gas tanker. we are destroying our own industry and our middle class. this is madness. for there seems to be a shift underway in europe, as people start waking up to the cost of the anti russian sanctions that the establishment has saddled them with. the number of austrian citizens who support the sanctions is decreasing and now at 40 per cent. that's according to a new survey, the cos, well energy and inflation, of course, which are also driving up the popularity of the right wing populist freedom party

in austria. that supports respectful dialogue with russia. in the czech republic, about 70000 people hit the streets over the weekend in protest of rising energy costs that are expected to get even worse as winter sets in. in italy, hundreds of people burned their utility bills in naples. on sunday, reported 2000 protesters in colonial demanded that the government prioritized their energy needs over ukraine. and now prominent politicians are starting to sing this same refrain. former italian deputy prime minister mateo sal vini is calling out the damage being done by misguided european policies. do we have to defend ukraine? yes, but i would not want the sanctions to harm those who impose them more than those who are hit by them. a prominent french political figure is also speaking out, former ecology minister, sickle and why? yell, who ran against nicholas? how could he is the socialist party candidate in the final round?

the 2007 presidential race and more recently served as current president emanuel mack, cause ambassador for arctic and antarctic polls is calling for peace and dialogue, saying that, quote, sanctions against russia bad. we assessed and badly anticipated are turning against us us, meaning the french people. and she's not the only voice emerging in france among the political class will be to melissa, every one knows that war propaganda is driven by fear. the the 1st event mentioned was the bombing of a maternity hospital. when mister zalinski was doing the rounds of the european parliament, that was this incident that brought the peace process to halt me. she thought he was unable to give the names of any of the victims in, but in the age of smartphones, we would have seen them to quasi. it's great to challenge the discourse imposed by the media media. i do it for many other subjects. i'm sorry to say there is an accepted narrative that is imposed by the media of posey and people like say, gleam royal and me are challenging this practice. they still at

a press conference in berlin. well, german chancellor, all i've shoals is said that his country plans to stop importing russian gas starting in december and will continue to support heave, basically germany like the rest of the you thinks they can just treat russia like a booty call for gas whenever it needs or wants to, and without consequence, but the optics of denouncing rushing gas while also begging moscow not to turn off the gas tap, are obviously problematic. so germany is apparently going to stick to importing russian liquefied natural gas for china, which will cost much more rather than just be honest about its needs and best interests and those of its people. most cross live now it's adults at jack rasmus, economics and politics professor st. mary's college of california dots jack, welcome to odyssey international. now festival, what do you, if the sog or the surrounding the turbines, the node stream one,

rushes as the sanctions are preventing maintenance while siemens says otherwise, what do you think's going on? well, it's probably both know there's probably a technical issue here, but it's pretty obvious. it's more than just a technical issue. you know, it reminds me of a parallel explanation here. i mean, what is it? we are in the private sector here. right? and we had a customer call, which in europe, and it was a private customer, not a country. and we had a private producer called a russian oil. and your customer said to you are, well, you know, in a couple months we're not going to buy any more of your product and we're looking for other customers and we're going to leave, we're going to break our contracts we had, were you? well, what kind of company i would say, ok, you broke the contract, we're just going to go somewhere else and shut off of the product. i mean, if you look at the private sector, that's exactly what would happen. so what's the big deal here with russian shutting

down and i'll send a his trotter to our customer doesn't want it anymore. and, you know, it makes sense to me and i, you know, i think that it's going to stay shut down. and i wouldn't be surprised a couple of weeks relative ukraine, pride wine also shut down. i will if that one says don as well, the only exacerbate the energy crisis in europe and we have already seen some protests over the rising cost of living. then some certainly predict that there will be more social unrest in the future. do you think the, if this were to mount that public opinion would influence the use foreign policy? well, in a look at the predictions of inflation, which are largely driven supply side here because of the energy issue are between 13 and 20 percent over the next years. what i've seen official forecast, you know, what, when you get inflation at high businesses, stop investing because they don't know what the future is going to be. household

star hoarding their, their cash. they don't know if they're going to be able to afford to pay their bills. and you know, the c, b in several banks will jack up they're, they're interest rates which will be $75.00 basis points for sure. i believe. and honestly, the economy down more and just yesterday it was released by, you know, s and p global research. that the, the purchasing managers index for europe, both for services and manufacturing. i have fallen for the 2nd month in a row and will continue to contract because the trend is even contraction even faster. so, europe is clearly in a recession already. i don't care, you know how you want to spinet a 3rd quarter and, and if the gas prices and the availability of gas a go up further, which they, well, now i, it's going to be even a worse situation. come on the winner. and yes,

to answer your question, we're already seeing signs in different places in europe, where the people are saying, i, you know, how does this benefit us? we're playing the bill for these policies and we don't see anything in it for us. a you elite, say, you know, are having a good time with u. s. policy agreements. but what about us? and i'll sustainable, do you think this is obviously we're seeing and you know, you citizens facing soaring inflation and living costs enough to avoid buying innovation energy over the war in ukraine. do you think there are any circumstances that he would try to lift sanctions on much or normalize relations with the country while the, the was still ongoing? oh, i think it's going to take a lot more public pressure here over the winter. you know, the politicians role and you know, the squeaky wheel gets the grease, whatever, you know, and i don't think at this point they will, you know,

they're very much the least very much tied into u. s. foreign policy. but the people and you know, who like them are really start expressing discontent, which i think is inevitable and coming. then they're going to have to change, or are there governments going to come down? well, we'll have to wait and see when that happens. i'm a favor got to leave it the doctor jack rasmus, economists and politics professor st. mary's college of california free born at the time. but thank you very much for joining us today. is jose admitted that there is a quote high possibility that his soldiers killed a prominence. i'll just have a journalist, as it concluded, approved into the events surrounding her death in may this year when she was shot dead while covering israeli military rate. it appears that it is not possible to unequivocally determine the source of the gunfire, which hits most abu i clad. however, there is a high possibility that most abu claire was accidentally hit by. i d. f. gunfire

that was fired towards suspects identified his arm palestinian gunmen. despite the finding the military top legal office as they will not be launching a 3rd investigation due to lack of criminal suspicion. the soldier allegedly responsible for the killing cause, reportedly apologized. according to an israel military official, claire was shot dead while covering an israeli raid on the jenin refugee camp in the occupied westbank. despite being clearly identified as press several investigations by humanitarian organizations on the un concluded that she was killed by israeli fire. however, an official us probe has not reached a definitive conclusion as to who pulled the trigger, sparking criticism from our close family who were incredulous about the findings. and professor political science, dots assad, 9 slammed the israel investigation and claims that the killing was intentional. finding that these are alien announcing are absolutely have nothing to do with the

reality and they are trying to justify what happened and the, this issue that the soldier apologize. this is absolutely ridiculous. there is an incident happened and it was intentional because not only shooting a barclay, and also another, a journalist who was with her, who was shot in his back. there was targeted by a sniper. it was 100 meters only the distance. a he can identified them with the clear gear that they are wearing, especially the helmets and the press, which was so obvious on their chests. there are thousands of cases which was a fight against israeli army in unintentional killing. and only 6 or 7 out of those were investigated. so usually these are in the army. don't take any responsibility when it comes to the occupied territories with the personas. because by the end of the day, is there
