ah, with another person, dies in violence between congolese protests is an un peacekeepers as clashes that have been on the rise for months to bring their mission to protect people from violence groups under the scrutiny. politicians and analysts from around the world hold a conference, the money in the ukraine drop or blacklist of his enemies mainstream media

claims of moscow is pointing to limit grain exports from ukraine. that's after fruit in says the e u is taking most of the shipments for itself instead of helping developing nations for to is the solution. there was to find in building more options one and india doing exactly that with russia. moscow, our new delhi plan to deepen neutral cooperation and expanding trade in national currencies as well as integrating payment systems might be just around the corner with from moscow to the world. this is our international. my name is peter scott's here with the top stories at 6 a in moscow time this thursday mornings. great. have you with us violence classes between un peacekeepers and locals have left at least one person dead in the democratic republic of the congo.

here the violence broke out after protesters on motor bikes, blocks a un peacekeeping, convoy in the eastern city or any on tuesday. the process would triggered by complaints that the mission has failed to protect civilians against militia. violence has been raging in the country for years now. they reached a peak back in july when 32 protesters and for peacekeepers were killed. when the buildings in civil cities was on fire, the mission has been in congo for more than 2 decades. it's a cost to the u. n. of around $1000000000.00. now the peacekeeping mission has been in the country since 99, but the dramatic increase in violence from groups left 400 peacekeepers and 4000 civilians dead between 202020228 local,

contributed gillian. baloo may says that many congolese ferrying for their lives due to the ongoing violence, are becoming frustrated with the missions continued presence. the un mission has been here mo, done to dictates in ha, india c. i would have out more news quiz around. but this situation is still getting worse and worse, and the local population has been on here talking about this. declaring about this, saying that why we have a bay, well paid mission in the world, especially with one more than 11000000000 dollars each year. and there is no peace in the country, the you and they have all the logistics, they have everything. but they used to say, or can we have to wait for the day, the security council decision when people are dying,

and especially when people are being killed and women are been raped. but we have to wait for the security day, j u n. k. a concert security decision, so it's better for the you went to, to be efficient and are to make sure they can satisfy her by peacekeeping and promoting peace. and that's the only one status satisfaction that can, can make people happy, especially to converse population which they are mondays normally, it's are to protect the local population. but unfortunately that's not the case. the u. s. news magazine has held a conference on the situation in ukraine slamming unless the care produces the targets international voices of opposition. many those blacklisted are now criticizing their governments for funding ukraine while it's government continues

to target western opposition. the u. s. congress through it. so appropriations has been funding the ukranian center for countering dis information. and they are attempting by doing this to be able to control freedom of speech. not directly in this country, which it is clearly on lawful by, by having a foreign entity do it are where they can, where they can suppress free speech using american dollars to do it overseas. my government funding, ukrainian government, my government allowing the ukrainian government to try and silence me by one. imposing the chilling early there is an absolute chilling effect to being called, a russian propagandist. the american people need to know that their government has been working hand in blood with the fascist ukraine region to suppress the

constitutionally guaranteed free speech of americans. the persecution of free will and free speech is not democracy. it is the killing of human spirit and the rule of human fear. it is the reign of terror. i have been put on a list. i'm ukrainian government simply for expressing my position as a candidate. it seems that if you believe that it was a good thing that we defeated adolf hitler 77 years ago, that you probably are a victim of russian brainwashing. and as we see, if you don't reform your opinion on that matter, you will have to be liquidated. participants the executive intelligence review conference have demanded that the government body that produces the list ukrainian center for country dis, information. we move it from its website. the conference was organized to ukraine,

referred to a number of western politicians on political analysts as quote russian propagandists . leaving many of those on the list in fear of retaliation. at least 5 of those named by key f are also included on the pro ukrainian mid of 40. it's websites which calls for them to be quotes eliminated as enemies of the states area. i spoke with foam marine corps intelligence officer, scott ritter, who is concerned us involvement. they're not just going so in a rush, a propagandist, and that's all there calling somebody a terrorist and demanding that actually be taken to, to respond to these people as if they were terrorists. they're calling for the liquidation of these people. it's death, murder, fascination. so this isn't just games, this isn't just word games isn't just, you know, ukrainian sitting back in ukraine calling you know, calling names. i don't care what they call me. i am a little concerned when my government empowers them,

pays the organizes the meetings and then sits back and facilitates legitimizes their actions. this is in the front not only to free speech, but this is my government in effect, empowering political terrorism. if it wasn't the ukrainian government, let's say this was al qaeda or isis. we put putting bombs on their facility, that's what we do to terrorists, we kill them. ukrainian government is a terrorist organization, and unfortunately, my government is supporting them in american citizens and other enter, you know, international journalists, neck admissions, and politicians are being put on a target list as a result. moving on now in the wake of the un security councils latest meet season . russia says it has some surprises in store for its western partners and wants them not to like so he's kind of moping has more. it's the 2nd day in

a row that we've had the united nations security council, the 15 member body that leads the united nations, convened a meeting regarding the situation in ukraine. now from what we understand, this will continue, man, there will be another meeting happening to morrow. this meeting will be taking place the following day. there will be yet another meeting on thursday to discuss ukraine. and the deputy permanent representative of russia says that russia has some surprises for western leaders, and they will be presenting before the council. here is what deputy ambassador paul janski's had to say. ukraine weak in the security council is not over. apparently having suck their fingers to the bone in search of an uncomfortable topic for us, they insisted on discussing the alleged filtration of ukrainians to russia. of course we have something to say in response and we also have some surprises in store for our former western partners. let them not relax and they should have no illusions that we can be taken by surprise. now to day as un security council

meeting, i focused on allegations about russia's practice of the term that they're using is filtration. and the allegations that were leveled were about the process through which a ukrainians who are fleeing from ukraine into russia are processed. now, it makes perfect sense that under these kind of circumstances, russia may want to screen those who come into the country, see if they have eyes to extremist organizations, such as the as our battalion, other ukrainian national groups are now much of what we heard from those making these allegations against russia was simply eye witness testimony from individuals who are currently receiving asylum in nato countries. individuals who somehow have gotten to nato countries, perhaps with the assistance of intelligence agencies and other forces are now coming forward and making these claims purely based on their own word. they saw this, they say this happened to them. now it's important to note,

and this was noted by the russian representative when they spoke before the council . that many of these allegations that are being leveled against russia with not much evidence being presented mirror exactly what the united states is known to have been doing in guantanamo bay with their torture practices. and also at the border where we saw refugees and their family members being separated, parents being separated from their children, et cetera. so today we saw western leaders get up before the un security council on parole, a huge amount of unfounded allegations against russia. now we saw russian representatives get, get together and, and be clear that this is not the truth, that these are simply unfounded allegations being used to justify continued support for the government here that has continuously violated human rights and committed atrocities. now we're hearing from the russian deputy permanent ambassador permanent representative. he's saying that now when the next meeting takes place,

which will be happening on thursday, they've got some interesting information to present before the council. so people around the world were concerned about truth and are not buying in to this tirade of over the top allegations against russia. the effort to continue to justify a western backing of the government in kiev and continued prolonging of this conflict. they're gonna be anxious to hear what russia has to say for sure. that done through india's prime minister has said that new delhi is interested in strength in cooperation with moscow and underlined dots. the importance of such trade is very important to him. is clear. i want to pay tribute to the force i to president putin nervous cooperation between india and the russian. far east and various fields is actively expanding. and today this policy has become an important pillar for partnership between our countries in india is interested in strengthening partnership with russia in many areas, including those related to the arctic. we also have huge opportunities for co

operation in the energy sector. russia has the opportunity to become an important partner for the indian metallurgical industry, through the supply of coke in co, rushin fod is your thought. well, the 2 countries are now in discussions to facilitate more trade and a payment system based on india and russia's national currencies. might be the way to go. ortiz at london sharma has more. the billable economy is facing tough times and conducting economic freedom. it's less than sanctions, and russia has not been easy. the restrictions have disrupted the traditional way of doing business, making it more difficult and expensive. what is the solution? there was to find in building more option one. and in the i was doing exactly that with russia. india is keen to continuity economic relationship with russia. there is a lot of dependence on russia for a number for the defense,

for example. and there has been a long history of trade with russia. we've had to be ruble trade in the past for dicky. and so i think this is a response to sort of a circumvent some of the constraints that have come about due to the sanctions by the way. so the game that needed in is to kind of make, to facilitate what was going on. are you using the global b one systems? but so it took long 3 global payment systems with this sort of innovative, a system in which recently integrate our system with the russian system. so it has not been for the continuity of trade, and we don't have to think despite specials from the west indian building new banking channels. and would sift out of the picture. moscow in new delhi have been

in continuous discussions and a new financial system. so trade between the 2 countries does not suffer. rush, ellesmere system may soon be accepted at indian atm and point of sale terminals. and the mutual trade might also be done in rupees, in ongoing geopolitical ships, in the us policy towards russia has not been defined by the western view of moscow . the primary mission of india foreign policy has been to promote its own interest 1st. and to do so, you deline the permanent being system with moscow. in fact, new delhi wants to boost trade with moscow and go beyond buying oil. currently, indian ports, more than it exports to russia, and it wants to close that gap aiming to expose around $2000000000.00 worth of goods to rush out the seal, including products such as chemical pharmaceuticals and dairy, essentially that russia previously imported from the west. there is tremendous hope for increasing our trade in economic cooperation. we've seen just in the last few

months, a certain change in the direction of trade. we're certainly buying lots more oil from russia and fertilizers also with more and more countries time to build new alternator financial systems. some experts say that in the changing world order, it may take some time, but certainly it's a start to a d dot arised world and that's already changing the rules of the global economy. region sharma, arti, new delhi. what flesh this out as cross live now to former indian diplomats, an invoice to canada, and south korea, vishnu, prakash vishnu. welcome to russia today. thank you. lovely. being with you. thank you for joining those. well, can you tell us, 1st of all, just simply how important is the russia, india trade relationship when the in the other hand relationship is important period great is one of the factors, but overall it's

a very important relationship. it's a time to, to relationship going back several decades and it has a relationship with you've been beneficial to the country. now we've heard discussions recently take place over a potential for both countries. national currencies to be used in future trade deals. how significant if this and how would it make trade easier between the 2 countries? real. i think it is quite significant and we are not inventing the really we have a good track record of to be robust payment during the so with it. and i was posted in moscow in $84.00, and without any intermediary currency contract, it is beneficial to we're going into a single mattress. that kind of thing can, we can guarantee you a commission of 2 to 3 percent and plus there are other factors. so if we have an ange benson settlement and routing and group, it is going to certainly benefit regina that we are moving in that direction. do

you think this is part of why to move by some countries to the dollar rise as it were? i lot of the dollars ation or anything like that. what i'm seeing is that any arrangement which is beneficial to any country is provided arrangement and why not? i mean, why should indian ruby not be important? and why should not ruble be an important guarantee? when we know each other, we can, we can be read each other. we have the beach other, and we can use our national currencies. then why not? i'm going to go spilled logic. somebody sounds far enough to me. well, india prime minister previously said that he wants to strengthen the cooperation in the arctic. what kind of joint ventures could you see between russia and india in the arctic? really pushes into the joint ventures. in general, we have again, a very good history of it, but you do need to energy in the military when you corp out of space. so

we have a habit of working to get to know artic is something that was important to india and russia is, has a huge only exclusive nom, exonerating the arctic. now what environmental reasons for mineral resources for navigation, for trade or shipping for and was meant for all the factors climate change in the arctic is important to india as it is to any of the country. and we have been having the expeditions dog, good cooperation with, with russia and to for example, the opening of the northern seal. it will be useful will help improve the connectivity. so we are on for that now, not very briefly moving on from economic to military cooperation,

obviously india. so parts in joint exercises with russia in eastern russia recently . what are your thoughts on this with regards to global security? obviously there's an interesting dynamic here with russia, india and china, obviously been parts of brakes with tensions between india and china over the himalayas. well, we do have ongoing intentions. are china and good relationship is, is a, is a quite a difficult relationship. china has shown hostility, which is something that india has been responding to who to believe we're coming to get our show relationship. we have a very close cooperation in the field of military defense and miller can we just want to have a bias, litigation. sure. but you're also who do you live in weapon systems and kind of thing. it's a sizes. so again, we are doing that because it is still a neutral advantage. and it's a, it's a we have a legacy of difference cooperation, which is continuing for former indian diplomats,

an invoice to canada and south korea, vish, new product, cash. we could keep discussing this for a long time, but i'm afraid we brought time. thank you very much. for your thoughts today, you countries are deceiving, the world's poorest nations by skipping up the lines of ukrainian grain exports for themselves. that's according to the mer putin who was speaking of the eastern economic forum in lot of us talk. but i dish, give sure, you know, almost all of the green exported from ukraine is being sent to the e. u instead of to the world's poorest developing countries. only 2 out of $87.00 cargo ships were loaded under the u when world food program that is only 3 percent of all that grain going to developing countries, where many european countries are now acting as colonizers once again, just like they did for decades and centuries, in the past, the simply deceives of the developing countries once more and are still deceiving

them at this very moment. while according to you and around one 3rd of the grain under the initiative has reached low and lower middle income countries. but several african leaders have slammed the european counterparts for missing a climate summits. and 1st will countries of also being criticized for failing to financially support poor countries in boosting their climate. resilience is maria phenomena with more the west war is a lot about losing ground to russia in africa, at least that's what a confidential internally you report shows. and that's after we've seen some desperate attempts to fix things as a number of us and european leaders. and top politicians recently visited the african continent trying to convince the public and decision makers there that they are loyal friends. but their actions don't really seem to be matching their words. on monday, the netherlands held the african adaptation summit, the 1st of its kind to help the continent tackle the full out of climate change. 3

african presidents flew for thousands of miles to be there. so what about western leaders? only one, the dutch prime minister, the host of the venue turned up in person. and the high profile african guess were not impressed. i cannot help but note with some bitterness, the absence of leaders from the industrial world. i think if we made the effort to leave africa to come to rotterdam, it would be easier for the europeans and others to be here. i associate myself wholly with the sentiments of president mackey style about the failure of certain vested interests to be present with us of this meeting. it is my turn to also deplore the absence of leaders of industrialized nations strong wards this not by western liter. it seems even more unacceptable given that their nations are responsible for the majority of carbon emissions in the world. as the african participants pointed out, the causes of the main polluters of our planets and it is they who should finance

agitation. the african continent has the smallest impact on climate change, but paradoxically suffers the majority of its consequences. in fact, africa is all are responsible for 3 percent of global carbon emissions. and yet it bears the brunt of the climate crisis as the most vulnerable continent. despite having contributed the least to global warming and having the lowest emissions, africa faces exponential collateral damage posing systemic risks to its economies. infrastructure investments, water and food systems, public health, agriculture and livelihoods threatening to undo its modest development gains and slip into higher levels of extreme poverty. the perceived disrespect of western or is, wasn't the only topic on the agenda. some of the promises industrialized nations made but have failed to meet. we're also discussed. we find that australia, canada, in the us, continue to fall massively short on international climate finance. the u. s. is

overwhelmingly responsible for the climate finance gap having provided just asterisk 5 percent of its fair share in 2020 full though its economy is asterisk 40 percent larger than the european union's. it provided only 112th as much climate finance. but are any of those countries even listening, according to the use climate, had reached nations, couldn't care less that africans suffer from what westerners are responsible for, because they're simply too busy with their own 1st world problems. let's be frank. many of our citizens in europe will not buy this argument today because their worries are linked to their own existence in this energy crisis in this food crisis in this inflation crisis. this might seem very strange from an african perspective, but it is always what is closer to astro. secure and worries is always bigger on your agenda than someone else's worries. a controversial statement at a time when western leader is telling their ruins,

citizens to be prepared to rush an energy cost their food consumption and perhaps have in fries because of the very sanctions they imposed on russia. while the fact that africans are literally dying due to western policies, isn't alarm and enough for them to take action. the summit by all accounts confirmed what, what am i putting pointed out recently at the eastern economic forum when he revealed that most of the grain shaped from unblocked ukrainian ports went to the you while only 2 out of 87 boats actually went to africa and it's not easy to argue with that after seen what happened at the summit in the netherlands, a chance to call parade, to help fix their mistakes, to create an equal partnership and prove their commitment all successful ignored and leased by western countries. so western media say that russia itself is trying to jeopardize international deals on grain

exports from ukraine. meanwhile, a german official says green is being transported to 3rd world countries bought via european transport routes. but you can't, as far as i know when exports to the you are only carried out within the framework of alternative routes. because the grain is then also transported to other 3rd countries via european transport rooms. we are not aware that ukrainian grain is exported to the u on a large scale if it is then via those alternative routes. we can't expect western media or western politicians to ever utter a word of truth. what we do know is that per month to month, russia has done what it can to enable foreign ships to leave. for example, the court of mario full. and it also was insisting that it would help gifts a passage for ships wanting to transport, whatever grains or whatever. i think the owners should be on proving you know, that the west was actually intended to be honest. of course they didn't,

and you didn't intend to be honest. in addition to that, the west has been both burning and stealing serious grains. so really western nations and politicians are in no position whatsoever to talk about who is about preventing people from accessing grain when it inevitably to send them. and in this case, ukraine as well. my vill italian milk producers are ringing. the alarm is costs of shuttle almost 50 percent pricing, many customers out to the market. the countries to main produces house, set aside the differences to demand the government. take action industry rep. marina barrenca says that the producers have been left with little option due to rising energy costs. leslie, dudley and producers are in a great crisis because we have to increase the price of our goods. and many people obviously won't buy anything any more. all prices are rising, so i don't know how much longer citizens can go on given. they are the 1st to be

affected by the sharp increases. but we interpreters are also experiencing a dramatic situation. we don't know what to do. the government must intervene immediately, and the 1st thing to do will be to lower electricity and diesel costs. because in my opinion, the sharp rise in prices is caused mainly because of this. plus, it can also be linked to the sanctions imposed and russia. but i also believe that many people are taken advantage of the situation and are rising prices without good reason than politicians should intervene. but in italy, politicians are really doing very little to change a citation spiraling. inflation has led to a jump in cost in the milk supply chain, with prices for deliveries. packaging, and animal feed, skyrocketing, driving a litter up to over to euros. was spiraling energy cost to have a devastating impact. not only on milt produces but also those trying to put food

on the table. i'll feel larosa, the president of the federation of italian consumers doesn't see and enter the crisis. incite it out. damages then thrown at is crazy to think that liter of milk could cost as much as $2.00 euros elevate them. we were consistently and the cost of living crisis is felt, hey, more than in any other regions of italy. i think that this dramatic situation will last for a long time, and that in winter there will be social tensions of major protests in the southern part of the country. however, this crisis was already under way before the russian operation in ukraine. before that, there was a pandemic, and now we see an increase in raw materials such as milk or people. but all of this is causing inequality and poverty, especially among citizens of southern a city. the polish people who soon won't even be able to go shopping at the supermarket anymore. but of course 2 euros for a liter of milk is too much, as is the cost of flour, bread, pasta, and all basic necessities. if you come up, however, i must.
