i showed him in the middle and said to me about the actual boeing up into that me the correspondent get caught in the praying shelling of done yet where at least 4 people are reported killed in the latest attack by key. of course, a breakdown of democracy, that's the european parliament assessment of hungry. it says the country can no longer be considered a whole democracy. and vladimir putin condemned the west saying it has been cultivating the idea of destroying russia for decades. and it's using ukraine as a pawn to achieve that goal.

the just after 3 pm here in moscow, and you're watching the weekly on our team international. i'm donald quarter. welcome to the program. now we begin with, with this news hour with the latest from the ukraine conflict. one person has been killed and 2 others wounded in ukrainian shelling of a village in russia's bel, good region that's according to local authorities. and that's also as officials from the guns people's republic report new strikes from the town a swat, the la saying key of forces launched multiple rockets from us, supplied high morse missile system. we heard from a journalist who was staying at a local hotel when it came under fire. but the so official, within an hour there was a strike and then just a few minutes later, a 2nd one. it seemed that our hotel had been purposely targeted, but it was almost empty. it was severely damaged in the attack, almost destroyed. so i was very lucky, i'm okay. the attack was very weird because besides me,

there was only one other person, an administrator, there was, there was nobody else earlier during check in the girl at the front desk mistook me for an officer because of the way i looked. i showed her my documents and she registered me. there was no military on the premises. sonya early saturday, another deadly attack by key of was reported in the daniel people's republic. a warning you may find the following image is disturbing. ah. is footage from done yet shows some of the victims and the devastation caused by at least 6 rounds of shelling over 4 hours. local authorities have reported. 4 people killed and 8 wounded with fragments of french howitzer rounds found at the scene. or corresponding there got caught in the incoming fire while reporting on location was lose ukrainian forces resumed there. shelly, on saturday, we can see an injured woman here. she's getting medical help right now. this is in

the city center. there have so far been 6 rounds of shelling and it's currently ongoing. sh soon clinic. good. what from the from washington who will dumber with us on post is on mission. sell them here when he didn't. meanwhile in southeastern ukraine, reports of at least 6 explosions in the city of her sonar. coming in, the sun, verified footed shows a moment after iraq. it was fired onto one of the cities. districts reports say that air defense systems have been switched on across course. on earlier on friday there was another round of shelling hitting her song for people were killed

in the city center, which was targeted by at least 5 high marse rockets supplied by the united states. according to russian backed authorities, there are warning again, you may find some of the following images disturbing. now it's this unverified footage behind me that appears to show locals running from the blast. 13 people were initially reported wounded, one of whom died later in the hospital. rocket struck the regional administration building during a meeting between officials as well. the head of the local labor department was wounded while her driver was killed. in kiev has claimed responsibility for the attack, calling it legitimate long side. the shelling increasing numbers of civilians are being wounded by so called butterfly, or pedal landmines, which are intended to main and dismember people. or to remind culture have sent us this report from the city of diana. artillery is not the only danger. facing the people here in dunham,

ukrainian army have also been using so called petal mines, all butterfly mines against the civilians here in de nest. this is what they look like. completely unnoticeable to the naked eye. and if a person steps on this mine, it will main that person for life. now i can pick this one up because this is a merely an imitation. but you can see what it looks like. it's very small. it, it can fit in the palm of my hand. and once again, it's completely unnoticeable over the last 6 months. more than 60 people have been maimed for life by stepping on to a small petal. mine like this injuries our limbs, people's limbs that have been completely torn off. according to local authorities, there are still thousands of these anti personnel mines around the nest people's republic that have not yet been discovered. right now,

there warning all of the population. to be very, very cautious right now. mentoring the hospital here in done ask the trauma center where they treat most of these patients. i will speak now to the chief of the local trauma center. whole. tell me exactly what him and his staff are dealing with but a conductor will. so can people get very serious injuries when they come into contact with these objects? often their feet get torn off. this mind is dangerous because during the explosion, i mean the secondary damage in element is asphalt or soil. these elements, in fact, the skin and sub thermal muscles, you should never pick them up. you should immediately called the emergency services . this mine is designed to cripple people, not to kill them. and this is much more frightening. ukrainian nationalists

continue shelling of the city of the nads not only with heavy artillery butts with these so called betel mines as well. the weather here is that changing right now as well? that means we're about to get a lot of mud, a lot of snow. that means that these are tiny mines will be completely unnoticeable. and that also means that doctors at this, from a sensor will have a lot more work from on call for if r t done as people's republic hungry is prime minister has compared to the e. u and its anti rush, a sanctions to energy, midgets imposing sanctions. on an energy giant that's after the european parliament said hungry can't be considered a quote for democracy. archie contributor rachel marston takes us through the details. european leaders haven't stopped talking about how much they want ukraine in the u. and how keith is virtually the embodiment of european values. just this

week. you commission president ursula vander line said during his swing, to keep that quote, the essential process is well on track. it's impressive to see the speed, the determination, the preciseness with which you are progressing. she also said that ukraine needs quote more business, more income through the you were talking here about the country recently considered to be the 2nd most corrupt in europe and rank 122nd out of a 180 countries on transparency internationals, corruption index on par with zambia, galvan and mexico. now compare that posture with the e parliament's motion approved this week in a 433 to 123 vote. adopting a report concluding that hungary has become a quote electoral autocracy, meaning that european values and democracy were under systemic threat in that country. we deeply regret that the lack of decisive action on the part of the european union has contributed to the breakdown of democracy and the rule of law

and fundamental rights in hungary, making the country a hybrid regime of electoral autocracy, hungary as not a democracy. it was more urgent than ever for the parliament to take the stance, considering the alarming rate at which the rule of law is backsliding and hungary, the report sites, a range of issues from academic and religious freedom to minority rights, but also judicial and electoral independence. the report could have literally been written about ukraine, yet the you and it would have been flattering yet the you desperately wants to shoehorn ukraine into the you. it comes at a high cost, but our freedom, the international peace order and democracy is priceless. you now can see that it could come to an end with victory for freedom and democracy. ukraine's problems haven't gone unnoticed, including by western mainstream media and human rights organizations like amnesty international members of ukrainian forces and paramilitaries, also subjected detainees to torture and other ill treatment and used detained

civilians. as pawns for prisoner exchanges between the warring sides. credible allegations emerged of torture and other egregious abuses by ukraine's so called volunteer battalions, ada, and his off. last year he had his main political opponent, arrested, and his assets seized by the state. at the same time, zalinski shut down 3 of ukraine's most popular television networks. channels that not coincidentally, had criticized him. the e wants ukraine so badly that it has created a new european political community set to meet for the 1st time on october. first, kind of a kitty table of countries that aspire to e u membership. so if you crane and hungry faced the exact same criticisms except ukraine's are far worse with ukraine. of course, being worse, ranked for its problems than hungry, which already passed the sniff tasks. well enough to get into the e in the 1st place. then while the block drooling over ukraine while spanking hungry a can't have anything to do with the fact that hungarian prime minister,

victor, or bon is against sanctioning russia. and his forged ahead with new russian energy deals while the block cuts off its own supply, can it? it sees the brussels definition of democracy and european values, however lofty they are, are synonymous with adhering to and promoting this global as to jetta. and when that particular box is techs, everything else apparently takes a backseat. the head of nato's military committee has admitted that the alliance began planning to expand near russia's borders several years ago. the statement comes after nato leaders agreed on a significant buildup of its forces on its eastern flank within the next year. due to the ukraine conflict. we're talking about the biggest overhaul of our military structures since 1949. the planning for that started several years ago, but now we're implementing it. the block plans to increase the number of high alert

forces on its eastern flank to more than 300000 in the, in the near future. and nato countries have pledged to increase defense spending as well. that's despite russia demanding the block, stop expanding to the east and key of be excluded from the alliance. while ukraine is not a member of nato, the alliance has been a key player and key abs. ongoing conflict with russia. mike maloof is a former senior security policy analyst for the u. s. secretary of defense. he believes it was washington's decision to break the principle of nato not expansion towards russia. it's actually, the united states was the one who was leading this effort. going back to the clinton administration to go against an agreement that a bill clinton gave to, to, to, to russia, that it would not seek to expand. but all the while it was. and now we're seeing that nato is looking for

a new agenda. and we saw it just very recently in their closing statements up there now, and not only including the arctic, but also china as a, it's something to keep an eye on. and russia has, had, had made it clear as late as last december, in statements to the united states, united states, i don't think the europeans would have done what they, what has now occurred if it weren't for the united states and the neocons with neo conservatives within the u. s. government pushing pushing, pushing this agenda and try to take advantage of it. probably thinking that nothing whatever that russia would never do would ultimately happen. meanwhile, protestors have gathered in paris to call for the resignation of the french president and an end to sanctions against russia that have seen e. u. energy prices skyrocket. its buoyed by a poll that showed support for sanctions declining a demonstration called for an taekwan's removal. and for france to leave both the

ego and native india against the sanctuary school and also against any revenue which is completely useless to stems from sanctions from the will wage binding till nato has been waiting to various rules of decades. and i have long wanted us to leave it so that we can find this sanction nicholas connected. because the last of all energy complex is our energy supply service in which has been destroyed by the name up. we're against freshening of it in for the, the nato, a moni home. then we are simply serving a permanent world better syllable. their liam is like a way once, but we want to look for ways to reduce attention, measure dental, irosia. first of all, this is a demonstration for peace in ukraine in europe. it is also a demonstration for a patriotic cause. because patriots are of, of all, for throwing off the yoke of the european union and nato. now they are talking about inflation associated with the energy crisis reduction of heating to 19 degrees and other measures and the consequences of sanctions that our government has introduced us initially when we're against the sanctions. of course,

we now are also against the consequences of sanctions during the shanghai cooperation organization summit and news pakistan this week. vladimir putin blamed western powers for manipulating ukraine to fight against russia. in the pictures in the city, for decades, the west has been cultivating an idea of destroying the soviet union and then russia. they've always wanted to see our country disintegrated. now they've started using ukraine to achieve that goal. no, no. this week, lot of mir putin met with the leaders of china, iran, india, pakistan, and turkey. and a key deal, rushes agreed to sell natural gas to turkey with 25 percent of the payments to be made in roubles boat and also slammed the european union, saying the block lifted sanctions to enable its own member states to import russian fertilizers. while ignoring the needs of developing countries and put, and also called the russian indian partnership,

a particularly privileged strategic one. that's more key points from the summit. here's our t 's, maria phenomenal. the 2022 s c o summit, the biggest in the shanghai corporation organization. is more than 20 year history has been called a historic 1. 14 world leaders from the origin region have gathered here. and it was becky's tons, summer cons to discuss a new world order that they now witnessed emerging. we've seen the student added a, lose its influence and trust globally. the voice of non western centric alliances like the seo is louder than average. the food crisis is among the key problems addressed during the summit and samarkand global supply chain. some of the pandemic and the ukraine crisis of course, disruptions in global supply chains. as a result, the entire world is facing an unprecedented food and energy crisis. and the s c o must take effort to develop reliable, resilient, and diversify supply chains in our region. for this better connectivity is no doubt

needed, but at the same time, it is also important that we give each other full transit rights. not only i see our countries as some of the world's largest grain producers and exporters have addressed the problem that say they're ready to offer a solution ketchel, but muted russia's increasing great exports world markets. this era will be 30000000 tons. next year we will increase it to $50000000.00 tons. 90 percent of our food goes to the markets of asia, africa, and latin america. we know how important fertilizes are for solving the food shortage. the day before yesterday, i also informed mr. gutierrez, about the 300000 tons of russian fertilizers piled up in e. you see ports, we are ready to transfer that free of charge to developing countries. i would like to ask you and secretariat to influence the european commissions decision, not in words, but in deeds to demand from their colleagues in the european commission that they

lift these obviously discriminatory restrictions on developing countries and provide access for russian fertilizers to those markets. as well, and the semi final document, the ecier declares economic sanctions, if not imposed by the un security council, are incompatible with the principles of international law. hooting has denounced the restrictions as economic selfishness, yet give it a miracle. striking example of this selfishness is your pin commission's decision to lift sanctions on russian fertilizers. if it turns out that only they can buy, are fertilizers and would about the world's poorest countries who are, although often referred to as an anti west ally. and the assay all claims to not to be against any other country, a block. but that doesn't mean it is without enemies, should the jewish and as the world is entering a new turbulent phase, we must cross the trends of the time, strengthened, solidarity, and co operation, and contribute to building a closer s c o community. with a common future. we must support each other to ensure security and development,

prevent external forces from inciting color revolutions and jointly oppose interference in the internal affairs of other countries. under any pretext. iran is getting ready to become the 9 member states and prove it. sherry, yes, your family's values. are you out here in recent years, economic and political multilateralism? has it been, syria threatens, and the american government is trying to impulse its entire demands and laws on the nation community and contravene sovereignty and independence with all its pulling and has to put the extensive use of completion on its agenda on oddly american unilateralism seeks to hold countries back from the independent path of development . today they had high corporation organizations unites 20 countries with a combined population of 3 and a half 1000000000 people that has half of the world. with 5 more states, including 3 arab countries, now announced to be soon joining the seo. the alliance is fortunate had to become global superpower. that simply cannot be ignored. regional tional

r t from someone account, it was a becky on the india has banned the export of broken rice, which is often used to make starch and rice flour, in an effort to protect its domestic food market. however, it's feared the move will likely drive up the price of ordinary rice on international markets all the details. here's ortiz runjun sharma. it's already been the export to wheat, and now the indian government has put a blanket ban on exports of broken rice. additionally, a 20 percent duty is also being placed on the export of all non boss maddie mal rice, barring to premier, were i tease the sol, comes into effect after the 15th of september. when this norbish hm came on, if evening, lot of consignments were already either emerald ordered under preparation, and they were ready to move to the ports,

the estimate that it on the $5.00 to $7.00 like guns or would have been under this sir kind of situation. so it's a huge them is because they will all get stuck and now they have to return the concerns of back to the government, blamed and abnormal increase in exports and said it's more was to control domestic food inflation in the abandon exports because it had less talk or wheat and rice following an unexpected crop failure. moreover, rice producing states of india such as been job. arianna b har, an order for dish sol, week monsoon, the c r and that's disrupted and destroyed. crop yields. india exports rise to more than $150.00 countries and broken rise to all was $75.00 asper experts. the sudden halt in overseas shipments could mean an upward trend in food prices disrupting the global supply chain. the move by india,

which accounts for 40 percent of the global rise trade is expected to father put pressure on countries that are already struggling with soaring food inflation and worsening food crisis. due to extreme weather patterns, heat ways, and the conflict in ukraine, hulu. go at times from cali to uh, 2020 india was the only country video maintained its exports did not receive. if you look at tylen, this 60 the export for something vietnam restricted. so what happened into them is that the whole world started looking at india for someplace, despite the covey i would exclude. so just so bad records are, you know, going to be then feed and food security across the way. we'll get dental rocha, rice ease, essentially. fragment, the rise green broken into for you during font would nation drying or milling. i

know it's not defective or less, you fishes. in fact, it's very popular in some of south asian countries. rook and rice and india as used primarily for ethanol production. and as animal for door, and of course for human consumption in several countries, india has been the cheapest supplier of rice in the world by a big margin which is shielded several african countries. but all that aside, the priority for new delhi for now is to boost domestic a well ability region sharma, r t arianna strong countries dominate. we countries that hasn't changed. that's according to american tv anchor tucker carlson, who added that countries like india have failed to build on british colonial rule. naturally, those comments sparked public outcry. ah,

today, india is far more powerful than the u. k. the nation that once ruled it, and yet after 75 years of independence has that country produced a single building as beautiful as the bombay train station at the british colonial hospital. no, sadly, it has not, not one. mm. i think twitter ought to have an option for something to press when you can't respond without losing your cool. funny, when i traveled all over india, the most stunning buildings i saw weren't built by the british, but by indians themselves. colonialism wrecked india. it didn't build it. so what's

your point? you can invade any country as long as you could build a nice and beautiful station for the country ah. over 200 armenian and as by johnny troops had been killed in clashes this week. that's according to new figures from both countries. it was the deadliest border incident between the 2 countries since a devastating conflict. 2 years ago. armenia says azerbaijan, he forces attacked settlements inside its borders and targeted civilian infrastructure with locals, reporting explosions from artillery and drone strikes since midnight on monday. but black who has rejected this claim, saying it was only targeting military installations and retaliation for, quote, provocations. a truce between the 2 sides came into effect on wednesday. although the situation on the border remains tense, things are also heating up in the armenian capital, where protesters have been trying to break down the gates of the national parliament, demanding the prime minister,

resigned. crowds were angered after prime minister nicole pershing yon vote vowed to sign a peace deal. as many protesters accused him of betraying the country by appeasing as or by schon. pushing on, reportedly told lawmakers earlier this week that he was about to recognise bach, who was territorial integrity in a future treaty considered by many as readiness to recognise or by johnny sovereignty over the disputed nicole in a car box region. protests also took place across other armenian cities. aiming to de escalate the conflict. the c s t o monitoring mission has arrived in armenia with more details on that. here's our keys, corresponding eager stuff. generals of the c s t o lines have their hands full lately, secret maps rout shed jewels are packed with confidential meetings. security crises between former soviet republics are putting the block to the test. so by

capturing part of it. right now, we're following a special field monitoring mission from both from a representative having witnessed the destruction of themselves armenian de 0 by john share a decades long mutual animosity in 2020, transcended into a full out whoo. in the go, in a car back a breaker, we're region predominantly populated by armenians, that as thereby john considers its own. it took the sides just over 40 days to sign a tentative piece deal broken by russia. and lately, it looked like everything was falling apart on ah, military hardware and facilities aren't the only targets in this latest clash

between armenian deserved by john. this very much civilian home and a frontline village was shelled just a few days ago were being told that the round hit straight and fell straight through the roof. well, at midnight, this used to be the bedroom, so only by sheer chance, by sheer luck, no one was home. and so nobody here in this household was injured. several 1000 kilometers to the east to other former soviet republics have added fuels to the flames. on paper, tajikistan and kyrgyzstan are both military allies, both member states of the collective security treaty organization. last, they are very trigger happy to bowman, shoot each other over yet another territorial dispute. ah

ah, mending the ties between the 2 is yet another task, c s t o chiefs are expected to handle in both cases. the solution lies in the diplomatic, not military plane says the russian general leading c s t o special mission in armenia. as long as of the shortest heard, nar, today's task was to visit the territories where the clashes took place, where the armenian positions were subjected to fire damage, which us, we try to be as objective as possible. it is written in the s harder of the collective security treaty itself, that priorities are given to political and diplomatic methods with much money. we try to resolve issues peacefully as much as possible with rushes, push for the new global order of affairs. international organizations face new challenges, inevitable transformations, and the latest stress test, the collective security treaty organization is going through, might mean that the block, too, is not immune from change. hamburgers,
