ah, a, a a, a, a failed to mention, the ukrainian shelling of the daffodils here, new nuclear power plant. and the watchdogs report released off the visiting the facility. also declining to playing russia for the escalation with the russian back, supervisor of the ukrainian city of the dance is wounded in a terror attack. according to local officials, i made reports of another explosion in the area with guys prom on china, petroleum corporation agree to trade gas and national currencies instead of the us dollar, sidelines and the ongoing eastern economic forum in florida. both the dog,

also member states from the russian lead military alliance, c s t o, as well as the shanghai cooperation organization. the are all participating in the same exercise here from 14 countries during the russian allies. the drills in the country thought a says they prepared to tackle common threat. a very well welcome. this is asi international. coming to live from moscow with the latest. well news update is good to have you with us. i was not with the latest developments around, there's actually a nuclear power plant in southern ukraine. the international atomic energy agency has just released his report on the situation at the facility of the visiting the sides. however, the watchdog has not mentioned the repeated ukrainian shelling of the plans. let's get the latest that now from our correspondent we're mom calls you up. who's in don? yes, good morning. very good to see you. so what exactly has the i a,

a found well the you and the nuclear watchdog issued the said $52.00 page a report about. so what's been happening at the upper ocean nuclear power plan. so it's appears to be quite neutral and it's assessment as to who is to blame for all the shelling that's been happening there since her russia took over the nuclear power plant back in march of this year. now, some of the conclusions from the i a's that sir all shelling around the nuclear power plant that needs to stop as soon as possible in order to prevent destruction . and in order to prevent a nuclear disaster in the area as the results of the shilling. however, it is not assigning blame for the shilling to anyone despite the fact that a russian defense ministry has been supplying proof that ukraine has been shelling

the power plan even during the visits of the i. e. a experts recently, actually a polish, a drone, was there, carrying at least 1.5 kilogram a, c and c, a shell. and the drawn was a shot down and it was given to the i. e. experts. however, no assessment of that had appeared in their 52 page report. now the un experts are also suggesting that said training needs to be done around the nuclear power plant in order to find out how to treat the disaster shoot. it happened as the result of more aggression against it. now before the visit of the experts and the during their visit, there were also at sam's by ukrainian special forces to take over the nuclear power

plant. however, all of those attempts had been thwarted by the russian military. now they have also expressed concern about the insider situations and they have noted that so oh, of the of the regular peroration of a nuclear power plant are up and running. the radiation levels are currently normal, they're radioactive waste storage facility is also working. a within the norm and radiation protection is in place for staff. however, once again, let me read read, read that. in this report, no blame had been assigned for who had been showing report nuclear power plant than was putting the lives of people in ukraine and elsewhere in europe in danger. so incredibly diplomatic conclusions very not report. they're not either among cause or event on. yes, many thanks for those days. how's we appreciate that now?

meanwhile, he has forces half once again showed the city of an egg darn near these apple j a nuclear power plant that's according to russian backs local authorities. the city suffered an electricity black house almost an hour as a result of the shelling in cranes. army has also said to have targeted the nuclear facility once more russia's defense ministry. phase 3 buildings at a site were hit during the bombardment and shelling has continued despite the presence of 2, i am observe as at the site and others have elements russian backs. all thirty's in is apollonia region. say there's been a terror attack in the city of the dance. the local supervisor has been heavily wounded and is now in hospital. another explosion has reportedly been heard in the area. these are the latest pictures we have from the scene authority say the supervisor car exploded in front of the administrative building. as you can see, the vehicle has completely burned out. the supervisor is now set to be in a critical condition with docs is fighting for his life. well, i got some reaction from finished alyssa younger ship with conan area. they are

living in their all home home cities. they are people who have their houses and families and roots in the russian world. and of course they are cooperating with their brothers. so to say that for a way that what you are allowed to do at your home and in your home sit, this is already a state terrorism because of course the people have to have a right to choose, in which side they are standing for. and these nice not search only the 1st time, then the administration sort of doorbells and o rush and sectors are targeted. like like with the terror tactics, they use gerald tactics to keep people out from cooperating with. so lets say local authority, sir. and, and don't bustle towards this and rushing on for me while russia top diplomat, one's an explanation from the ear that's off the blogs, foreign policy chief,

allegedly referred to russia as a fascist regime. so gay laugh up stays. moscow is now considering revising its relations with brussels unless years that burrell statement is properly address. william the bureau of sir, we will see clarity, and if we do not receive the transcript today, we will draw the appropriate conclusions. if what has been reported and all the world's media is confirmed, then of course we will have questions about how to continue to do business with these people. when brown's office claims there was an error in translation to english and he has it been where i was speaking in spanish. however, his office is denied to provide the transcript to the russian foreign ministry after it demanded it to. so as he is also asked for a copy of the transcript, but the e u diplomats office has refused to share as his browse the original statement as translated from spanish to english. so far, we do not have a concrete plan how to defeats the fastest russia,

and it's best regime finance, journalist, janish pitts, canyon again. say such statements don't represent the views of the european public in what voice, who are they representing with these kind of statements and what, what kind of conclusions everybody should do about this kind of, this is not the diplomacy whatsoever. they have played hardball against russia, and they are losing badly. and they cannot stand the because acquaintance of their own actions and principal work of any government is to secure the livelihood of their people. and that's constitutional demand. and all these unconstitutional and unlawful against international law actions, what your opinion has waged and force it the countries to do. of course, every you, sensible european union citizen should do their own own assessment. that what

has happened, where we are heading and do their own conclusions, because facts are on the table of people haven't chosen these kind of situation to call. a crane hasn't done anything to prevent these events to come. russia tried to prevent a massacre. a 2nd 14th year massacre in dorm, but you know, the truth is on the table and i'm, i'm sure that when do in the cold cons now and the real problems. and i'm very worried about the people of finland as well because they will not cope with this. this situation comes way too fast way too strongly. and there is no medicine. you need to send people to moscow to figure this thing. so, ah, russia's gas, prom and chinese national petroleum corporation have agreed to switch gas payments

to national currencies rubles, and you ones instead of dollars. the decision was made to be easton economic form via a video conference ahead of the russian energy companies that will simplify transactions and set a new precedent. the new payment mechanism is a mutually beneficial, modern, secure, and practical decision. i believe that it will simplify the process of payment implementation become an excellent example for other companies and given additional impetus to the development of our economies. they were able you on trade agreements will be used in sales on purchases through the power of siberia gas pipeline. discussions also took place over linking the power of siberia gas pipeline in russia and the soil vall, stock gas pipeline in mongolia which will connect the russian and chinese gas transmission systems. gas. brom is already designing the far east and gas pipeline shack. i sent the rim pike and international studies vice chairman nelson, long se,

agreement is a tipping point, both with bilateral relations and global praxis. it is quite significant actually considering that the world is changing fast and so far as that the global supply chain is going through a major phase of reshuffling. it's quite a remarkable step. it will definitely set a precedent, and it is a milestone step in terms of across the border trade between china and russia. these are not standalone cases. so it's coming more and more countries are going to to make their settlement in local currency instead of the us dollar. so i think we're going to see more and more companies like this in the near future. the ethan economic forum currently taking place in the russian city of la la stuckey, the key platform for a business in the eastern states of russia. it allows companies mainly from on and asian pacific region, countries to establish new ties and to attract investors. reform includes

exhibitions, panels, sessions, round tables at t, v, debates, business breakfast, some business dialogues. we spoke to the indian ambassador about the prospects of future cooperation between russia and india. we are all the time happy to discuss with our russian friends and colleagues, how we can do more on the trade in economic front. prime minister has made it a priority to take forward trade in economic relations with russia. and certainly the russian far east has a very special role in that whole approach. we have been working with russia for 75 years. so with union and then russia, we will continue working with our russian friends. and we are making all efforts that we can to see how we can assist each other and continue to do so. not just in existing areas of cooperation, but also in your ones. we are looking at how our central bank skin work together to see week and how we can facilitate payment mechanisms. we have to realize that now, usage of international, certain currencies may not work in our bilateral trade. so we are trying to find ways in which we can do these settlements in national currencies. we're looking at

all logistics options as we go ahead. certainly not in seattle is one of them that we will also be looking, but we will also be looking at the indian international north south transport corridor and also the bloody will stalk route on the eastern maritime corridor. going to india. india is also taking part in the ongoing vol stock 2022 military drills, among 13 other countries involved in the joint ground forces exercises with some 50000 troops. countries deploy best. so just to gain modern, military experience during the drills and rushes far east. china is also taking part, bating ascent. its army navy and air force is including some 2000 troops and html and 300 military vehicles as well as ac, frost. and bullshit. or stays drills include 3 stages of joint military actions and prepare in preparation for any potential aggression in the 8th, our correspondent on quota reports. as you can see behind me,

today's joint military exercise of boston. 22 has just begun. it's consisting of 3 stages to day per state. what you're seeing behind me right now is the initial ground assault under the cover of an artillery bombardment. stage 2 was going to consist of a heavy artillery bombardment as well as an aerial assault, and by state 3, which we're going to see later on. that's going to be when the mass assault is going to take place with protection against potential aerial threats. now, today's military exercise is actually very large. it's on a very large scale and in, in comparison to what we've seen and days before. and that's because member states from the russian lead military alliance, c, s t o, as well as the shanghai cooperation organization are all participating in the same exercise here. so let's take a look at some of the action that we're going to see today was you can hear behind me as well as see somewhat the fighting in the military exercise is continuing and

there's actually a typhoon here right now. so the conditions of the weather are really making it harder than it might have been otherwise for the soldiers to carry out their objectives. the fog is very thick limiting visibility as well as this cold rain. that's not making it very pleasant for those soldiers that and tank operators that are fighting in this simulated exercise than us lube oil. the machines performing flawlessly, the weather is rough, but the troops are ready to carry out their tasks in any conditions and situations . the own forces of better ruth are represented by battalion tactical group. about $300.00 people are taking part in the drills. the tank battalion has been regroup from the western borders of better ruse. around 30 tanks, 10 infantry fighting vehicles on an artillery battery. that of some heavy artillery firing behind me, you can't really see it because of the fog conditions, but you could definitely hear it just to give you an understanding. the artillery

used in this exercise are definitely the closest to us right now with i obviously you can't see because of the fog, but the infantry are farther away. that's why the explosions are so loud when you hear these batteries firing. which is thigh, which is why these drills are very important. exercises on such international scale are rare. there were countries from the collective security treaty organization, the shanghai cooperation organization, the commonwealth of independent states, countries and other friendly nations. here the drills are very important for the security issues of every participating country. the stated goal of today's joint military exercise is to give the commanders and soldiers involved in it, the experience they need to respond to any sort of threat aimed at the east in the future. that's part of the reason why vladimir putin is personally overseeing these military exercises today. tomorrow he's set to attend the eastern economic form and

blood of us talk and give a speech. the main theme of this event is going to be the rise of a multi polar world and joint military exercises like these are no good or no doubt going to be an essential part of this rising new multi polar world. because after all sovereign countries, if they want to rule, they need to have capable military's donald quarter r t reporting from near cerise. the u. k. defense ministry is expanding its military training program for ukrainian citizens and could instruct them on how to combat russian soldiers on the front lines. we are now extending it to 5 weeks to provide the best possible preparation for ukrainian soldiers who will soon be inactive combat operations. we must do everything we can to help them defend the homes against this illegal, an unprovoked russian invasion and will continue to do so for as long as it takes. well, it looks like there's one thing in the u. k. that's rising faster than the energy

bells and that's a number of ukranian fighters being trained in the u. k by western allies are reported. 4700 ukrainians have been through a training course in which the british defense minister apparently has full confidence. so what are the trainees actually learning monkey bars flaming hoop, jumping pushups. how to dazzle russian soldiers with their jumping jack skills? you know, it's a valid question in light of previous western training boon dog holes, which proved to be a total waste of money. in particular. remember those syrian rebels that the pentagon, the cia and their allies, trained and equipped in a fail bid to overthrow president bashar al assad. well, that training cost, american taxpayers hundreds of millions of dollars, the trainees vanished and assad is still president of syria. what it resounding success. so is that going to be repeated here? that should be the big question. now this british program for ukrainians reportedly

focuses on basic infantry training, which makes you wonder what caliber of fighters they're actually getting if these people need to go through the military equivalent of gym class. thankfully the quote advanced training comes in the last 2 weeks of the 5 week program. who knew that you could be trained to stick it to vladimir putin faster than you can be trained to work a fast food drive through window? well, maybe it does take a bit longer. actually, if a newly leads assessment is to be believed ukrainian servicemen fail to reach our lowest military standards and close quarters. combat exercise is moreover, their weapons training is no better comprehensive nato and u. s. weapons training standards are unreachable for 95 percent of the trainees taking into account the comprehensive assessment results. i can states that ukrainian personnel fails to get the necessary combat skills and knowledge under the current express basic training program. instructors from 8 other ally,

countries are also hanging out in the u. k. for the training. maybe they're checking out the sites and enjoying the fish and chips. in any case, it doesn't seem like the folks running things are too interested in where the ukrainian fighters and up if a newly published a legit exchange between the british ministry of defense and the swedish investigative outlet the indict air is to be believed. what procedures, if any, will be carried out by the british authorities to identify where the ukrainian individuals are sent following their training in the u. k. and what happens to these individuals once they are sent back to ukraine? the u. k. does not track where individuals are sent once they have returned to the ukrainian military's duty of care. so the training may not be going quite as well as planned, but the military industrial complex always comes out the ultimate winner, regardless of what happens on the battlefield. the british gulf strategy fund has

invested $80000000.00 in 6 gulf countries, including saudi arabia over the last 2 years. according to its latest report, international human rights groups, questioning the role of the fund and fair, the u. k. is supporting repressive states. if the gulf strategic funds still include support to government institutions in saudi arabia, the u. k. could be complicit in bodies carrying out or white washing human rights abuses. the u. k. government must ensure complete transparency of these funds and how it is supporting human rights. otherwise, the u. k is essentially supporting the continued repression of people in the kingdom, the fund which is overseen by the british foreign office, things that boosting cooperation between the u. k and the gulf. the funds website emphasized to support the women's rights in the section on saudi arabia last year. but the website has since been modified and the references to women's rights have been removed entirely. but is lawmakers questioned new prime minister list trust about her selective foreign policies back in june. when she refused to criticize

saudi arabia's human rights record and shifted the blame on to russia. what i'm focused on is making sure that we are dealing with the major threats to the world. the number one fret were daily was at the moment. is this rat from russia. in order to do that, we need to make sure that we have alternative energy sources. one of the key sources of energy is the gulf region. we don't dealing in a perfect world where dealing in a world where we need to make difficult just difficult decisions. we have from award winning journalist martin jay who's saying that britain is not in a position to talk about human rights and is desperate for more oil from the gulf states. it will seem to be rank focuses on person, lead and challenge for decades. when induced out the moral tutelage to these countries in the middle east, on the appalling human rights records. and then shifted away from that since just

a few months ago. and his trust made that statement was from ministry in britain. and now, more recently, we're seeing european countries from keeping the news in the countries to get more or less gas. so i think a lot of it is really about the desperate times that we're living in and, you know, on the rights comp, choose a certain britain is not in a position, are really talking what is quite common really because it's such a tiny amount of money i'm talking about 18000000 pounds or something like that for most of these go for leaks that doesn't really even represent lunch. i think it's really to offer these countries some sort of governance and holding and nothing really more rarely. and graffiti also known as c t o has been forced to apologize also producing what he said was an effort to promote peace in ukraine

peter seat and had to remove a controversial mirror portray, and a russian under ukrainian soldier hugging. i apologize heavily to the ukrainian people if i'm offended them, but this was my intention was to promote peace. i'm not affiliated with any russian people, media or anything. i'm purely someone who maybe has some crackpot idealized spiritual vision, spiritual ideas around the unity of people and that were all one. and that's pretty much it. washington says he meant no harm as any seekins highlight the importance of reconciliation and unity. but he was forced to paint over the melting mirror aloft, respond to furious backlash from ukrainian officials. a recently unveiled mural in melbourne showing a russian, and a ukrainian soldier hugging is utterly offensive to all ukrainians. the painter has no clue about the russian invasion of ukraine,

and it is disappointing to see it done without consulting the ukrainian community in melbourne. i think they have jack on their arches is offensive and extremely disturbing. you know, 1st of all, we all recognize off the center is the same shoes of history. that bad piece is much better than it would more hobble the ukraine don't want to leave on the heel or a shortage since 2014 level fighting. they will show endlessly and they normally on the queue. so just to say that we as a gradient, people are offended yet some people offended some not, but the fact of the met these people dying and there's not i, i fully support the artist, any artist who does his will promote anybody's addition, any diploma. was it says time to promote peace makes perfect sense now and makes perfect sense, you know, brought it in 99 percent of the cases. the australian artist isn't the 1st victim off such censorship as he joined a long list of western politicians on prominent figures who had fallen foul of kias

for their views. among them is pope francis, who was called the piece, but was then criticized for expressing regret over the death of russian journalist doughty, a duke enough. and takes us secretary of state henry kissinger, who was slammed by president lensky for suggesting here, should see some territories to russia. americans that us around paul has also been blacklisted off the he thought the u. s. military package for ukraine and kiev insisted on an apology from amnesty international after the n g, a revealed that ukraine's military has been using civilians as human shields. amnesty international deeply regrets the distress and anger that are press release and the ukrainian military's fighting tactics has caused amnesty international priority in this and in any conflict as ensuring that civilians are protect it. indeed, this was our sole objective when releasing this latest piece of research. while we fully stand by our findings, we regret the pain caused an ever let me go stain the chat,

the department of slavic studies that americans brown university stays a global media, ignores alternative views. on what's happening in ukraine, we don't hear, i'm gonna do voice is media suppresses it. and basically those are good to anyone. we have to know really what's going on in ukraine. and i just a note of some lady from england said our george brings you to be great in river juice. and the 1st thing they say to us, we want base level radios is not, it is an issue of negotiated from that they want. so that's a voice, but is it hard? it's not so consequently, you know, we don't heal, don't do or is is, and is it is he keeps on pushing for more, getting more help from the west. probably he's on the threat of certain elements of his society for one to continue the war. but you know, it's that you have to imagine that your grade is all unified. those brothers and

children of dine does not love your new fight. anybody points to some concrete, 3 ology on the battlefield, is accused of being a religion. and what it says, let's get these is it gives them being terminated. this is, this is just jolly when you, thanks joining us here in asi international where back the top of the hour with the very latest. we'll see that ah ah ah ah

ah ah, i think you got the stuff that we've she and we've been it looks like so she's a little who is using it for me and i used to move center of chicago and then lots

of them will when i'm putting out the so please. so mr. ashley with this mission of property in putting me on that this interest. what about sprawl? i at that should cynthia about the move, the social services to see the way to finish conceding open emotional distortion of bothered with steel, wooden cook with o creature willa. ah, ah susan, you skull missed a slope. is vanya, yes, just do. 70 sophia, you national, not on but what is a far all done.
