[000:00:00;00] ah ah, yes, the on joining russia, that's how the referendums in the independent don't boss with public than to break away ukrainian regions ended with the false majority of those in favor. we hear from people on the ground on how they feel about this historic with no one forces us to come. if you can feed yourself, people come voluntarily. i'm so happy i'm about to cry. you know, i'm really happy. we've come a long way and i've been waiting for it for ages. as western countries labeled referendums

a sham and refused to recognize the results. rushes on buses of the year when accuses them of double standards. but what is union recognition is such takes place only approved in the west that out is critics of referenda in the don't. boston roger and coastal regions. we're at one time with a full frontal support for kosovo, independent with no referendums were held in kosovo toll with java leak and the damage north stream pipeline system emerges is a form of polish foreign minister. thanks to washington painting that the west, sabotage the russian gas supply route. with a welcome to you. it's 2 pm here in moscow, and this is all t international with the latest world news update. it's good to have you with us. now our top story, the vast majority of vote is in the independent don't bass and to break away ukrainian regions of cost the ballots in favor of joining russia on c brings you

the latest on the referendums and the republics have done. yes. guns, no guns on the regions of those yet and just final results and that don't. yes, we're public indicators over 99 percent voted to join russia with the la guns were public showing 98 percent voting in favor. meanwhile, in the regions of zappa dozier, and joe on the pulling results, showed 90 percent and 87 percent respectively voting in favor. as joining russia, the highest turn out in the polls was in the don. yes, republic, over 2000000 people cast their votes. either 1600000 votes in elegance, good public one, in both care, san ins, apollonia regions, open 1000000, went to the polls. earlier we spoke to the president of the bricks, international forum who was part of the international monitoring team and don bass narcissa as the mood of the people that contradicts the western narrative. i found that 2 people about whom we were hearing that they are under

a gunpoint or they are having go controlled by that issue. now to be found that they're ready, they're participating in a friend um, like a celebration and fester grimsley. really giving message to the world that are, there is no fear, nor any pressure, and they are taking their own right when russian government did not by display do they only provided logistic and infrastructure to law along the lines and don't stick people to conduct the voting when you come to the real grounds, then you will understand what did that he energy from my united nation office. you can not say every thing. so this is not what they were in. international media is going on and it is most of the time the, the fake news during last 9 months, we observed that so many fake news circulated to the by the western media to eastern word code word. the vote was the key ice and for discussion at the united

nations security council meeting. whether you west denied the legitimacy of the referenda, forcing rushes ambassador to remind the west of its own history with breakaway regions. recognition as such takes place only if approved in the west is good in general the western version of democracy has deteriorated into a dictate of a liberal minority over conservative majority saying that out his critics have referendums and the don't bus that raja and coastal regency were at one time, at the forefront of support for cosello's independence, no referendums were held in kosovo toll. only a declaration of independence adopted by the provisional self governing body in excess of its powers. but back then, it was enough for the west to recognize cosello's independence in your feelings issue. while the un security council, the 15 member body that leads the united nations, convened the meeting today in the security council chamber. now, immediately russia spoke up at the beginning of the meeting, making clear that they objected to the fact that vladimir zalinski,

the grand resident, was given a platform mobile to speak via video link to the un security council meeting. they said clearly that this was simply turning the un security council chamber into a place to put on political shows to serve in dealing with janda. it did not fit with the rules of the you and russia made clear their objections. and then we heard from rosemary, decarlo under secretary we heard from zelinski who then address live video length and then and when members of the security council spoke, he was very clear that there were differences among the major countries. now we heard from both russia and the united states bowling permanent members of the security council here is the clear differences between the 2. we know the outcomes of the sham referenda were pre determined in moscow. they in no way represent a legitimate expression of the will of the ukrainian people who i'd like to say that the referendums were conducted transparently upholding old electro norms. more

than 100 independent international observers from 40 countries observe the referendum, they gave the opinions to the media, but unfortunately weren't head is in western media. story that might be carried out with weapons provided to kiya by the united states. this is what anthony blank and said shortly before the un security council meeting. will the us still allow ukrainian troops to use us weaponry to defend against russians in those territories, no matter what the outcome of these referendums and this, these possible annexations ukraine has the absolute right to defend itself throughout its territory, including to take back the territory that has been illegally seized one way or another by russia. now, the nato chief also made clear that while nato countries are supplying weapons to the key of government that they do not consider nato to be part of the ongoing conflict. they consider this to be a fight between ukraine in russia,

and while nato is supportive of ukraine, they are not directly involved. regardless, that was the context in which the un security council meeting took place. now the un security council is tasked with making sure world peace continues and deescalate and conflicts. but it seems like, as russia pointed out, the un security council was just used as a platform for grandstanding just as a place to put on political shows to demonize russia when real danger to world peace and the possibility of this conflict escalating too much greater heights. are hanging over our heads as a result of the response of the united states and its allies to the referendum. the west has accused russia as conducting the referendums, quote at gunpoint as while ignoring ukraine's threats to punish locals for taking part in the vote. and relentless shelling by keith forces, if it, if on yes, was hit on wednesday morning in the latest ukrainian shelling cities park in a hotel was damaged along with cox. cons that windows were shattered in the attack

. all say, no casualties have been reported. it's not any don't, yes, that's on the fire. but like ganske as well from where artes egleston of sense as this before it was a very emotional day for all the 4 regions that were taking part in the referendum . as all of them overwhelmingly chose to say yes to russia and well, no to you, craig, but see you have to understand that a project and course on a relatively new to this family of well regions that were seeking to join their big brother instead of the da nets can look on people's republics. they have walked a very thorny and difficult road towards this day. there were fighting for the right to be heard. of course, it's all about the people here and well they did not shy away from sharing their true emotions with journalists, yellow smith. i'm really happy. we've come a long way and have been waiting for it for ages or little girl. no one forces us

to come. you can see it yourself. people come voluntarily. i'm so happy. i'm about to cry. you know the numbers, i think the referendum was more than successful and completely for joan in russia. i voted was daily. so we've been eagerly waiting for this for the 8 years we've had war here in the don bus. so i knew that was there's a desire to see changes to have stability certainty in your life, a desire to just live a peaceful life and see your parents come and care free. it is fair to say that the vote here and in all regions happened at gunpoint, but not in the sense that the western medium, our western politicians might lead you to believe. but raw that guns pointed from the key of side at the people at the polling stations at the booths as or even here in logan's, people and just the polling stations were shelled relentlessly by the key of military. our people had to interrupt the voting. they had to hide and bomb shelters, similar

a similar situation and similar picture in many other regions in other regions, taking part in the vote. so for the key of authorities, this is something this vote they aren't recognizing it of who's there cooling at a sham and in fact they have threatened everyone taking part in their vote no matter how they're aware their mind and hearts ways are in favor of yes, or no, they've threatened to everyone taking part in the vote with the legal action with the prison terms if they were ever to get their control over these parts again. well, next, the heads of all the full regions, they will have to make a bidding in front of latimer putin on behalf of the millions of people who voted in favor of yes to join russia to make that happen as quickly as possible. but we're going to be keeping updated with the latest on the events in it on bass, republics and breakaway regions and what the future holds for them. so they stay with auntie international for that.

ah, how came that to russia sabotaged it? so gnawed stream pipeline system are absurd, says moscow. i think that there is only one winner from the lake who stands to make big profits butcher problem. again, this is a big problem for us because 1st and foremost, both lines of nordstrom to are filled with gas. all the systems are ready for pumping, and the gas is very expensive. now this gas is escaping into the air for me to ring . if you remember the statements that the u. s. president made in early february, he promised to get rid of nordstrom tomb. we don't know exactly what lament what we see a hysterical euphoric reaction from poems as they're thanking the u. s. for this, we don't know what that means. either medium was a huge profits from american suppliers of liquefied natural gas. they are very,

very interested in continuing to reap super profits. are we interested in this? no, we're not to it. we have lost his gas or why route in europe. movie them is europe interesting than this is germany. the engine of the european economy? are they interested in the groupons are also in a very difficult situation right now. if you can continue me while a former polish foreign minister has hinted at american involvement in an old stream pipeline explosions on the u. s. congress woman has emphasized that an element of washington's interest in the ukraine conflict pertains to energy supplies and softer suite in for the cause of the damage could be an act of sabotage. without suggesting a possible culprit. i predicted back in february this year that you asked interesting ukraine was about natural gas dales, but the apparent attack mold trim t, i remind she take notice there is no shortage of pipeline capacity for taking gas from russia to western europe, including germany. thank you. usa, that sweets was very suspicious,

and russia's foreign ministry spokeswoman even commented on it, asking whether it was an official admission of a terrorist attack. because at the moment, all signs or points in towards the united states on choose. the german magazine spiegel claimed that the cia had worn germany about possible attacks on the gas pipelines in the baltic. sea were also learned. now about sightings of american helicopters hovering over that area along the routes of the pipelines a few weeks ago. back in june, americans were boasting about conducting underwater drone experiments. in the same area we're, one of the blasts took place. also, most importantly, i would say back in february, you, as president joe biden, had warned that nordstrom to could become a target. and even he was media are making that connection right now let's listen. it is true that blowing up north stream does not help vladimir putin. he would not do that. why would he?

but that doesn't mean that other countries wouldn't consider doing it. they would consider it, and we know they have considered it because at least one of them has said so in public, if russian res, that means tanks of troops crossing the on the border of ukraine. again, there are no, there will be we, there will be no longer a nor stream to we will bring it. and how will you do that? exactly. since the product and control of the product is within germany's control, i promise you will be, will do. and maybe they did, after all the is used to get 40 percent of its gas from russia. and now we had to reduce flows because of western sanctions, technical issues. and now these leaks gas flow has been halted completely. farms in europe and countries look for alternative sources with america being one of those sources. but of course, almost see here the side of the story. they're more interested in blame. russia

accusing that of an act of aggression. this for us would, of course, means it would be like, shooting this off in the foot. but again, they're more interested in saying that this is all russia fault, and poland actually seems to be their mouth piece lately. let's have a look. this is probably a signal from russia. this shows what means mechanisms, the russians are capable of resorting to in order to further de stabilize europe. now, the head of the european commission said that whoever is responsible, whoever is behind it, will have to pay for it. of course, he didn't, they didn't specify who yet frames. presidential advisor already jumped on the bandwagon accused rush of an act of aggression saying that it's trying to create a free winter panic and is asking for more weapons which is also very convenient. europe is already in the grip. if there's any crisis, how will the damage to the pipelines now affect the people in europe? what we've seen gas prices in europe skyrocket on these news. on tuesday they

increased by 10 percent. but if we compare energy prices to the same time, september 2021, for example, the increase to 100 percent. so consumers are really feeling it right now. and especially now when winter will start, they're very worried that they will not be able to afford to stay just a warm bots. of the president of the german energy regulator has said that even though the market situation is tense right now, germany and europe are no longer dependent on nordstrom supplies and there will be just fine. so we'll see when, when for start india has lost towns at western attempts to block russian oils. nick local markets also similar restrictions are placed on a rainy and, and venezuela and fuel. if you take a run out of the market, when is wider out of the market, you want to take rush route to the market. what is the world supposed to do? this is not about de risking. this is about keeping the markets alive. and these

are policy choices which countries have made the indian foreign minister out at that developing countries are concerned about how to address their feel needs, which are worsening every day due to the global energy crisis. highlighting that mo, supplies go to europe at premium prices. he stressed that the issue is not about getting energy transition. right. but quote, getting the politics of the world right. strategic affairs expert, dr. profile gosh questions. the west's rational honestly, i think there's going to be a disaster because what are the other countries supposed to do? if there is no novels, the reason why we are enhanced, if you remember, default your brain crisis, we only want about one percent. now it's nearly about 80 percent of russia. norma, be able to pull through. most of the politics which are much is out of go to europe or dr. the worst is the feeling that things can happen in, you know,

what i would say with reduce the dependency so much. it doesn't happen on grow these big a long time. has evidence for me when you know, the president said that you commission president, lenny said got reduce it by dent. it's not possible. many countries are heavily dependent. similarly, the rest has been offering us to reduce the dependency. but we have found that all budget suits, you know, the discount switch, your russians are or give us voters or, and basically not only interested, many or not so much of the gas. so we are getting out this trade. i think the rest all sort of your license that there are certain constraints. it's easy to

give up vision that look, please reduce dependency, cut off russia, et cetera. but the practical realities are quite different, which we have to take into account. we're staying in india now, delhi has been day mostly in political organization and some of it and some of it, sir. so she had cited alleged links to terrorism on subversive activities, and that's also a nation wide crack down on the group. the popular friends of india, which is also in the detention of more than a 100 member as well. with more for more on this s a join our guest now i thought he contributes a r t t can join him in the studio. thanks for coming. and it's lovely to see you in person was behind the government's decision to bomb this group. well, this popular front of india has been involved in lot of activities. it has links with

a radical islam. mr. organizations like isis and jim might, they would have been bungler, bish, and also a former radical islamist group of students. islam make movement of india. all 3 groups are already banned in india and popular front of india has also been involved in a lot of murders. it has also been involved in causing riots and violence. it has also been involved in mobilizing, used, for example, in citizenship amendment asked protests, and they were mobilizing them to cause why lives. so this front is clearly working at the behest of external forces which are inimical to india as interests. and it's quite clear. a that the government was trying to send a very strong message to all islam, this radical groups that the indian constitution will prevailing in there does not

need to go back to the aggression off chevy. for example, the demand off radical islam is groups like be a 5, be openly today talking about law. they're talking about cali for they're talking about establishing this law mix. stayed in india and you cannot tolerate such kind all over rebellious and such guy all for seditious views in india. i think of the government is a basically has said that they are going to ban the organization for next 5 years, which means that they will be cracking down on their assets, their farms, their support system, their logistics, and their entire network, which is spread across the country understand that the, the popular front of india has been under investigation for the past 10 years. absolutely, and that's why i was trying to recall the kind of activities they have been

involved in, murders of activists strong and leaders from our asses, for example, murder off. they chopped off a professor's arm now that and that too, for blasphemy blasphemy against islam, they seem to be operating autonomously at one level. but clearly there is supports us system for them. not a funds have come for be a fi from abroad. now this is a security threat for india because india does have to 20000000 muslims, and india cannot afford to have radicalized islamists. india cannot have hostility between hindus and muslims. and when you give such a long rope to islam is it's encouraging islamic radicalism, and that is something that the government will not tolerate. so following the government's decisions upon the group, has there been any reaction from the front and associates a yes. in fact, the have as the usual twitter which gives

a platform to such elements. you remember twitter actually for a very long time get platform to al qaeda and isis. and today twitter is giving platform to popular front of india who are openly rebelling and saying that they will be back after 5 years. and they've been, you know, res basically of protest or they will raise a whole rebellion against india. and so will spend the reaction from the general public to all this. well, general public is quite a welcoming of this decision, not just hindus, but also. so for the muslims, in fact, or one of the mean organizations off super muslims, vanessa sophie muslim, i mean to say muslims who believe in peace was slims. who believe in synthetic india, who believe in the toss of secularism and pluralism in india, they have come out saying that they welcome the step that the government must track

down on every single islamist and every single islam is group which works against the integrity and sovereignty of india, india will not accept any, any such organization which works against the integrity of india. r. c. thanks so much for coming in and discussing this with as a really appreciate your time arty teacher. archie contributes. i thank you. thank you. ah, business in east africa is fallen victim to cyber crime, according to a recent survey which shows that 3 out of 10 companies in the region experience some kind of digital attack. one of those countries is kenya from where our correspondent brings us more details. with the ever advancing technology organizations in canyon, the east african region, how shifted to online operations, the adoption of the infrastructure has made them vulnerable to say, but time due to the large amount of data entry infections conducted over the network can generally fall victim to these at times,
