to the 27th. we spoke to local there and they say this could pave the way for peace taken up, or if we can them, i'll vote in favor of it. i have an extremely positive view of this is exactly what we've been waiting for since 2014. our people have suffered a lot for the idea of joining russia. all these events have shown that we have one path. it should be done as soon as possible, so we hope that no one will attack russian territory. i will warburton favour because it's time to become part of russia who have been wait impatiently for e. t is. we're tired of the whole situation. this region must return to its home. the time has come, so the decision must be made. i will vote yes so that there will be no more shelling and everything will work out so that we live as we did before. we've been heading towards this for a long time, 8 years. it should have been done a long time ago,

and very happy about this. i think life will become more stable. there will be protection. maybe the war will, and sooner i'll vote in favor of it. we've wanted to return home for a long time since 2014, the sooner the better without russia, we have no future. where he is vogue who is the head of those of rosie region has said the authority his will do everything financial safety for those who want to express their will. usually you've got to look up a sheet because i'm sure that i see donations. will i drive around separate jack region and the vast majority of races cult hold a referendum as soon as possible as they want to join russia. you don't want to be some grace and we don't want to become ukraine again. we want to become a part of russia, as we historically always have been. it was decided to hold a referendum in such a way as to avoid a mass gathering of people. that's why the referendum process will last several days. everyone will have the opportunity to devote if necessary, we can collect votes from citizens at home. this is necessary, said that zalinski lead saboteurs won't be able to fight on and shed the blood of

citizens who just want to express their will to be part of the russian unity. everything possible will be done to ensure security was worth more than you. great . 3rd, his high war locals that any such referendum is forbidden, as they say, organizers would face up to a decade in jail. and anyone who participates will be in prison for 5 years. my colleague, rory sushi, spoke with a pound of gas and said ruins in those regions won't maintenance turn from voting because of such threats. here in the guns. absolutely. absolute. my jury is certainly standing for what we have fighting for, for 8 years here. to get full recognized from the russian federation and, and to get back home. that is the mood what has been here for years and it has been defended against a brutal attacks of the kill forces course. a lot of people were awaiting that for

8 years. so people are really impatient to be able to voice their choice. and but of course people are a bit afraid about the security because we have the massacre when to cure in the center of the net, just due to a shooting from the ukranian army. so there are a lot of questions about that from people, but people are really willing to, to voice their choice. i think it will take place correctly and legally because it was the desire of the people off the don't back to have what really matters. here is the seal shanghai cooperation organization. if the funds are on back there . greg of nice if, if the breach countries will recognize that and so that we can get to the movie. ready world ukraine says referendums will change nothing. is that really the mood and no, no,

i see him from the information we have from ukrainian telegram channels to. there is a mood of fan 18. the president to cabinets in bunkerville because of course i understand that the front line isn't after the russian territory. they mean that russia, i can officially declare war against ukraine for them. it means that the last 6 months would have be in the like a nice bass in heaven compared to what, wait, this several western leaders have said in response that they will not recognize the referendums. for all says, present, micron has slammed the planned votes as a quote parody of democracy. while german charles the shows has said the international community will not acknowledge the results. when he liver,

a former german parliamentary secretary of state for defense and vice president of the o. s. c. so me says german politics should be focused on its people, not guided by the desires of nato and other outside influences. angled archibald, the german policies supposed to be made in berlin. but if we take reality into account, of course, there are strong participation from the you and from nato, which now also has its headquarters and brussels. and we need to know how we define our policy. and i recall the statements of the israeli president herzog a few weeks ago in berlin. when he said that, as far as the pass is concerned, they will not forget. i would like to point out that historical awareness must be defined by us in our policies must be guided by this, by the ways, the principle that was laid down and the basic law of the constitution for our country. german politics should be focused on the german people and not on any non governmental organizations. if we don't return to the basis of our national values in this fundamental conflict,

we will end up in disastrous germany supply and weapons ukraine. we're giving them money and that can't go on in my view. we have an obligation to contribute to the end of hostilities that are now unfortunately taking place as high in journalists, an activist vincenzo lo, russo claims that the wes implements the subjective policy towards referendums, depending on where they're held, making clear distinctions between the possible independence of crossover, and that in the dumbass your pencil take the reaction to the referendum would definitely be negative. that's because unfortunately the self determination of people is a concept that can be interpreted in different ways. so when it comes to kosovo, that's one thing. but when we're talking about don barza reaction is completely different. therefore, as it was in the case of crimea, the will, the people will not be taken into account by the west. personally, i think that these republics have no other option to pass started back in 2014. and my mind that was the moment when the point of no return was passed,

the locals had been discriminated by the ukrainians. they were not even allowed to speak in their mother tongue and people there haven't been receiving pensions for 8 years now. dar dumbass has been simply left with no alternative. in my opinion, it's their natural desire to be an integral part of russia. lauretha is an owner of a telegram trial where he recently gathered videos of italian seeing a soviet folk song. it's called cuts, usher and called the juice. one of the. busy informal symbols of the greek patriots at war, and it's gone viral in italy where dozens of the will and now singing about a young girl waiting for her beloved certain far away in the war. though. as for lee albany, he grew she, oh no vicar, you're sure now? oh, the goblin is made in support of russia and his culture,

which lately has had attempts to cancel it by the west. it comes after lack vena thought is prohibited. the song saying falls into a category that they alleged quote, glorifies it to full terry and regime. larissa again says many times including him see ross of phobia as a nonsensical movement assistant, i think will i mean that were very surprised by the roster for the campaign. in fact, we were shocked during world war 2. the russian people fought for quality, not for humiliation and suppression. were appalled multiple times, like the way dostoevsky was banned at the university of milan, and the with russian. violinists were banned from plain interest from blocking abuses and banning the sa katasha. it's just nonsense. so that's why the flash mob with the song went viral, that it was very touching to watch how italians were seen katasha. these are ordinary italians like me, who may not speak russian very well, but are still doing their best. we feel indebted to the russian people but his

switch he is out of the world, hung a crisis, is in the spotlight at the un general assembly, a secretary, joe and tony with her as rules the world attention to the fertilizer supply problem, sale these products cannot be sanctioned, he was followed by the congress present stating that results his muff wrench african countries in need. are these caleb bumper n as this report will now must urgently address the global fertilizer market crunch . vizier, the world as enough foods. the problem is distribution. but if the fertilizer market is not stabilized, next year's problem might be foot supply itself. it is essential to continue removing all remaining obstacles to the exports of rough and fertilizers, and that ingredients, including ammonia. these products are not subject to sanctions. well,

it's the 1st day of the annual un general assembly where we hear from various heads of state. and while a number of country, the lines of the united states have been critical of russia. one underlying reality that various speakers have been unable to avoid is the global consequence. the u. s . sanctions against russia. as you just heard, the general secretary reflected on the concern regarding global fertilizer exports and their impact on the local food supply. there are very serious concerns being right now, we heard from a number of african countries, members of the african union that addressed the general assembly today when they spoke guy on tuesday. and one thing that we did hear repeatedly was concerned about the need for development from a number of leading western financial institutions and, and prominent boys in the west. we're hearing about the call for the growth than the name of climate change. but it seems that

a number of african countries are determined to see their people rise up out of poverty and they welcome investments from russia in china. here's what we heard from the leader of the democratic republic of congo. 7 should we do nearly shots on the economic fronts? what needs to be done is to help economies recover the economies of countries that have been weakened by the collateral effects of climate change and the current of virus. to promote the balanced global economic growth and to hold the exacerbation of poverty in developing countries, we cannot overcome this challenge without internal good governance efforts at the national level, nor productive investments of capital, nor without real and sufficient transfer as a financial resources to those who need them now, one thing that we heard from the leader of the democratic republic of congo as well as other figures from the african, you know, developing countries was the concern about multi layer it. and there's

a feeling of the way the un security council is that up, certain countries having the power is not really there too much of the developing world. there was a call to restructure the united nations to give more representation to african countries. countries in south america, countries and asia, it's saturday. this is some of what we heard on that theme of multi polarity and possible restructuring of the un democratic to go continued the democratic republic of congo continues to think that it is essential that we structure multilateralism and enrichment with equal treatment for all of the parties. involved in order to create spaces for dialogue and cooperation, which is something that we need in order to ensure international peace and security . that is the united nations that we want to do this. we need to fact urgently to reform the un, which seems to be lagging somewhat at the moment. we heard from

a number of key countries that took the floor on tuesday as the proceedings began. the un general assembly taking place every year and late september as well underway, an active kilometers racism. that's how you, again, to, has slammed a new e u resolution. that's trying to block an oil pipeline building project sites and alleged environmental and human rights abuses began in parliament depth. the brandy, the move was a step against the country. sovereignty. the resolution is based on misinformation and represents the highest level on neo colonialism and imperialism against the sovereignty of uganda and tanzania. it also seeks to deny ugandans and east africans the benefits and opportunities from the oil and gas sector. this represents the highest form of economic racism against developing countries who has the right to explore and developed from their own natural resources and under what

conditions. that's the number of the fight between uganda, tanzania, and the e. u. on friday, the e u. parliament issued a statement saying they advise all companies as the quotas linked to the east african crude oil pipeline project, to abandon all activities and to seize any production. now, the worries for the u parliament, as cited in the petition, ah, environmental, and linked to human rights abuses, they say detract us of the projects have been arbitrarily jailed, and that an oil spill already from this underground project could in face among the many rivers connected to the great lakes region and could be a detriment to millions of people who live in that area. hits more from the you, the european parliament calls for the you and the international community to exert maximum pressure on ugandan intensity and authorities as well as the project promoters and stakeholders to protect the environment. and to put an end to the extractive activities in protected and sensitive ecosystems,

including the shores of lake albert and commit to using the best available means to preserve the culture, health and future of the communities affected. what the petition will not tell you . however, in the energy poverty of the east african region as a whole and that many of the east african countries can not afford to go green. it is estimated that 66 percent of uganda's, a multi dimensionally energy pool, and the 33 percent of them have always suffered from acc, shoot energy, poverty. uganda is one of the countries that could greatly benefit from this pipeline. it's estimated that uganda has some 1400000000 barrels of oil and is ground. and that the 1400 kilometer pipeline plan between it and tanzania could lift millions out of poverty. and according to the president of uganda, he had a warning on twitter for total energy,

which is one of the companies linked to the pipeline project. he says that should they follow in the footsteps of the wanting from the parliament, uganda and tell dania, stand ready to take their feet into their own hands and chat, of course for their own destiny. and that if taught towel pulls out, they will be ready to find another partner. we heard from the international policy consultant who believes is wrong with the youth interfering of guns, domestic economic affairs. i think it's because right now they are working on getting from another african nigeria and i plan is expected to be 600 kilometers to bring natural gas here because it's not finished the you got the pipeline deal. they're making their noise and they're trying to condemn another sovereign state,

personal and about how the mission is about 4 percent of the whole world emissions. and after accounting about 17 percent of the population, the lifeline and the development of the oil is going to have benefits for the economy. people right to do what they believe is best for their people and invest the stream service. and it's not fit for your company. to do german is a f, the political body is lashed out to train some buses to berlin off the he said, the gym and paula members who visit the don boss on a plan. fact finding mission should be thrown in jail. a s d m p. 's are visiting moscow occupied eastern ukraine next week in support of the war of extermination. this is a criminal offense. the amateur lawyer mendera fan and ex ambassador melnik spreads

fake news. in view of the distorted in partisan reporting on the ukraine conflict, we want to get our own picture of the situation and assess the humanitarian situation. the germans have double down asking what's criminal about searching for facts. they say the 1st casualty of war is the truth. so what is it so criminal about trying to verify to ask questions. but ukraine doesn't seem all that in favor and not for the 1st time. back in april, when the new started coming out of alleged the russian crimes and booter president zelinski gave an interview to german, his build, and expressed his anger that someone within they, you had dared to ask for evidence. and civil and listening was a schultz, but it was the nastiest request, one of the you politicians off to show some evidence that it was true, not a set up. he asked to show the evidence. i can't say exactly who it was the chief of some european government. i did. yes. but not schoultz. those who have dare than

the past to draw attention to the aspects that he did not like as smeared case in point. world renowned and respected amnesty international, which published their report on what they rode on the ground research had revealed all but confirm in kiev had committed war crimes. ukrainian forces have put civilians in harms way by establishing bases and operating weapons systems in populated residential areas, including in schools and hospitals. what followed next? did anyone risk fact amnesty as long history of good work? no, amnesty was targeted donations dropped and please quit. the angio had to come out and apologize for the discomfort they report caused. stressing, though that's his conclusion, remain the same overnight, misty became a pariah. a russian propaganda till it renews. also because this organization as it now stands, has to cease to exist because it causes an incredible damage to the concepts of

human rights and freedom. but the way this organization is protecting authoritarian and totalitarian regimes ethics. i'm just like you, i'm outraged by amnesty international. i think it is unfair, local budget. so when you look at him, we saw today a completely different report from m stand, national, which unfortunately tries to amnesty the terrorist state and shift the responsibility from the aggressor to the victim of people who done cancelled and discredited for committing the ultimate scene of challenging the prevailing narrative, like the new official regarding boucher amnesty, international and ukrainian armed forces and possibly the german m p. 's. now in don bus, it seems that there is just one working formula for keith and his allies. just trust us or you are the enemy. early 3rd, 0 vice president of the you regional centers. as you quit, officials don't want to see the truth come out. ukraine have and we've been,

are all about. i complete propaganda. you never know what's actually coming out of there. and they do not want to have someone actually see on the ground the for themselves, the situation. they want everyone to believe. trust us just like butcher no evidence trust. they definitely do not want to see the truth come out because that i think there's definitely war crimes that i think it'll come out to show what has actually happened over the last year, mr. melnik and do all the name calling he wants to. but i do not see how this less, there's some external pressure that we're unaware of. i do not see any type of criminal charges being being brought to them. i mean, an extra you would one representatives to go and actually see for themselves what the situation is. i mean, i would,

you would want that it just makes sense. but we're in a, we're in a very unusual situation right now. and 7 year old girl has reportedly been shot in the head during demonstrations in iran, over the death of a woman arrest of violating strict dress codes. a warning you may find the following. images disturbing. the girl is said to be in critical condition off of the incident in the western city will con, there have been already several consecutive days of process in the islamic republic report say 5 people have been killed since saturday is secure. tuples is open fire on the crowd during the most violent protests in the capitol center on videos of the social media issue. police isn't, wasn't cannon against the demonstrators. the protests,
