ah ah, footage of any kind of damage not being pipeline system emerges as a former police foreign minister status to washington. hinting that buick sabotaged the russian guest supplied with joining russia. that's how the referendum from the independent on bus, the public's and to break away ukrainian regions, ended with the vast majority of votes in favor. several $155.00 millimeter shows. it struck the center of done meds on wednesday morning. actually, it wasn't at all. i am a correspondent in the next report for new queens mentors shelling of the city

center. the morning off the local residents voted in favor of joining russia. a major hotel at school and the residential building was struck in the latest attack . and germany's opposition leader is forced to back track on his statement that ukrainian refugees are basically well fed tourist, after thought outrage in berlin's national condiment. a hello and welcome to international coming to line for my headquarters here in moscow. it's just gone 6 in the evening. thanks so much for joining us. claims that russia sabotaged its own north stream. pipeline system are absurd, says moscow, adding that there was only one winner from the leak, that stands to make big profits. bridgehead problem again out, 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 just a ring a. do 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 he meant, what we see a hysterical euphoric reaction from poems as they are 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 so much. we have lost his gas supply route in europe. movie them is europe . interesting in this is germany, the engine of the european economy. are they interested in little girl pins, are also in a very difficult situation right now. give me one quick sec. kremlin reaction came off to the former pony's top lip. diplomat posted a photo of the massive ghastly can said, quote, thank you usa. meanwhile,

a us congressman suggested that washington, his main interest in the ukraine conflict, has been securing american prophets on energy markets. sweden has said the cause of the pipeline 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. their parent attack, mold trim t i remind she'd 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 warned germany about possible attacks on the gas

pipelines in the baltic sea. we're also learning now about sightings, of american helicopters hovering over that area along the roots 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, he was president joe biden had warned that nordstrom to could become a target. and even he was neither 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, then there will be we, there will be no longer

a nor stream to we will get it. how will you do that? exactly. since the product and control of the product is within germany's control, i promise you will, we 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. thompson, european countries look for alternative sources with america being one of those sources. but of course, almost to hear 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. busy means it would be like, shooting itself in the foot. but again, they're more interested in saying that this is all russia faults, 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 and equipment the energy crisis. how will the damage to the pipelines now affect people in europe? well, 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 in september 2021, for example, the increased 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 stay warm.

but the presence of the term an 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 the alleged sabotage occurred at a difficult time for us with winter fast approaching and fierce winding among the public that they will be unable to afford to keep their homes. sherman media report that the damage done to the pipeline can be repairable fighting government officials. and mo, though brush has made gas exported, gas problem has said it may be forced to control for supplies to europe via ukraine, saying the ukrainian company works with enough to guys has failed to for full contractual obligations. services that ukraine failed to provide should not, and will not be paid for gas prom considers the filing of the appeal by nafta, gaz of ukraine. to be an unfriendly step in

a continuation of the ukrainian companies bad faith conduct and believes that further attempts by nafta gaz of ukraine to pursue this dispute may cause the russian state authorities to introduce sanctions against that company. all the situation for europe is just going from bad to worse as it's running out of options, even to fall back on the limited supply of russian gas from which it still hadn't cut itself off completely. now what this statement from gas problem means is the gas promise siding unfulfilled transit obligations of the ukrainian state company. natural gas, the company evokes the potential for russian government sanctions against nafta, gas as a result. now any such sanctions would prevent gas prom for being able to continue paying those transit fees to natural gas on gas ship from russia to europe, along $1.00 of the very few remaining brutes to supply the you. particularly now that nordstrom pipelines are both off the table in the wake of yesterday's alleged vandalism. now, natural gas has issued

a statement say the gas prom is already paid transit fees for october, fine, but after that the ball is still up in the air. who knows what might happen after that? a rupture of this gas shipment arrangement. one of the very few remaining means left for europe to get russian gas would mean choking off gas supply to customers like italy, germany, austria, france. in slovakia this would effectively leave the turk stream pipeline whose customers include hungry and serbia. so the balkans would be sitting pretty in that case, unlike the rest of europe. so are the other you countries in that case, just going to let the balkans have all the gas it's not like europe can rely on the us to step in and bridge the supply. gout with shale gas u. s. shell industry executives have already made it emphatically clear. mainstream western press reports that they can't ramp up adequate production in time for the winter. so with options running out and europe in

a race to secure energy against rapidly dwindling options on one side and growing protests by citizens staring down the barrel at a winter of duel inflationary and energy supply crises on the other reality seems to be setting in at least for the economy minister of the blocks economic engine, germany. sometimes there's just smoldering and sometimes the entire house is on fire. in either case, the future viability of our economy is at risk and permanent damage is imminent. we must now muster all our financial strength to get our economy through this crisis to protect jobs, investments in the future viability of our economy. yeah, the house is on fire. it was barely over a month ago. that havoc was bragging that he had gotten his shower time down to 10 minutes, dan, down to 5 minutes, all to help save the country from an energy crisis. but these mounting problems are becoming increasingly difficult to solve just by taking a stopwatch to the morning bathroom routine while it's close live now to

aust, i'm austin, phone, foreign minister. kevin, nice though. thank you so much for joining us here on our team. in your opinion, why has the waste rushed to accused russia of damaging its own pipeline? well, it's, it's, it's a very logical argument. irrational like a lot of elements of irrational over the last years. now let us just briefly look back out what has been going on ever since the pipeline was decided on agreement. now where whole mass of got a story is had to reorganize number with a to be organized a who's been years ago because a sanction on that company was provided for laying them at the tubes on the ground. so there was not only an amount of money

me a nurse, i'm in order to yes and large and stream being done. so i don't any are logical and it all play russian after heading put so much energy in getting that are on track in your foreign policy chief joseph barrow has stated that the leaks at the note stream are a result of a de la bush act. why would you think that why, you know, sometimes unfortunately statements are formulated along the so called lines to take some sort of capillary language that makers yup. on then the rest

of raises. i'm the, it's it i how and why that with the room and with the cherokee. ok, so let's put that detective with his side for a moment. back in february we heard from the u. s. president saying that he would do anything to disrupt the guests. so via the north stream. why would america one to do that and does this not perhaps suggest that it was behind the sabotage? yes, i have seen this video clip over the last 24 hours again and again. it might be an indication and hope if you, if you all, if you are now a detective, well together you would have to definitely was that level of evidence. it gave elements. but all 3 of you at

contested topic for that case. if i'm going to say so already know, one with carpet in 2000 as a contract built. but the idea was they will, i want to see the dentist and he's that, well, this plan and miles, although we label all, all you all think dan will building that pipeline on that drama and he direct russia. i bet that's one thing that i learned, and this has been a phobia of many issues in

central europe. and so that, that's an old story. perhaps you can give some insight as to the polish reaction. potent has come across has been very cheerful to the point that you had a criminal spokesperson describing wolf was reaction as euphoric when it comes to the sabotage of the north stream. what is that about? yeah. why it's not connected to my previous statement. it was also because we now surfaced a member of europe ottoman who had, if you meant to say it brilliant korea, minutes of defense for a fancy was over the candidate maybe as a secretary general financial looking altogether. when the professional lie you that for a representative, bentley, community, european paula math and the kinds of dance in college.

i'm looking for a trans atlantic connection when breaking became commercial and breaking. what? because the, the convention i guessed from russia. i remember emma, about if you go back all the lecturing alicia diversity topic but there was a position by the others on the sea. and this is nice to interest. you breaking, breaking, 30, making for online living involved. but certainly not in the rather limited eco cultural space is central europe. but nevertheless, i remember around 2010 for itself the publish public opinion in general. very,

very excited about going into becky. and because all that made them some wine, adams, from, from a russian import center, working together with you as a little ex energy company cell was cya. but interesting, you know, one of the other companies that like them will those, the canadian company, i think but the name, i don't recall it now, but i think that the canadian law made it not a commercial. it doesn't make sense for us remain here. because if you will, band with and that was much to decide you haven't guessed from now says it's guessed. so to western europe is at risk over around with the ukrainian contract enough to guess any idea why has enough to guys refuse to for full it's payment obligations,

knowing that europe is suffering and enormous energy crisis, because surely it's just shooting itself in the foot. national geo met, i mean it did it. this is one of the deep, there is story. all aspects of what is going on right now. i do have raining of a man, a warning against all i've eaten wis, rochelle, the energy bit other topics, but at the same time, ukrainian authorities make a fortune out of the just, i mean, it's a very surreal element of to hold up next. but the yes, this has been going on and it still record it does do mike with the stuff by right now, i'm not lying out with the payment obligation and all that. this is not a new story. i mean, we have had a real live by the ukrainian in and again,

we also had the problem about this infrastructure not, not modernizing. i'd opportunities to modernize so when more stream to started to be more, more contested. and besides either you add others. i remember dan chancellor, matt called john just on that. she made sure that a certain amount of money would it bother lives updated. so to always keep all of your brain and track it next to nordstrom, i mean, there always was guarantee a financial ability to guarantee that your grades wouldn't lose that money. and if you also want them meaning importance as a trends though, i did a conflict around mold stream, the fact that the, that you have now been completely destroyed it's, it's very, very irrational because there were so many other options that the russian

authorities had agreed upon. that you had agreed upon, and if there had been some sort of political will, we could have sorted out carrington, i saw the former australian foreign minister. thank you so much for joining us here on naughty. the vast majority of voters in the independent don bass and to break away ukrainian regions have cost a balance in favor of joining russia. r t brings you the latest on the referendums in the republics of domestic and guns, and the regions of the proportion and has on final results in the next republic indicate just over 99 percent voted to join russia with the guns for public. so 98 percent voting in favor in the regions of upper boise and her phone polling results showed 93 percent and 87 percent respectively. also voting in favor

of joining russia. the highest turnout in the polls was in the nest for public, where over 2000000 people cost a vote of 1600000 voted in the guns for public while in both her son. and suppose you regions over a 1000000 people went to the polls. we talked to international observer on week before you, who explained what influence voters to make the choice with surprise. especially in the cases of lugens comes on the it's the highest response because the guar i was in the bias 2 weeks ago. i lived during one week in don't yet go specially day and night where graham bombings over all the c t people there. talk about the lottery lottery means somewhere. any time you can die, viable to the know, but you have only to live, to leave,

as normally as you can. so especially in these conditions, people ones to be part of russia and be part of peace. the waste has the cues pressure of conducting away from random quote at gunpoint. that's while ignoring ukraine, switch to jail, anyone taking portion of vote as well as the relentless shilling of participating areas by key of military and independent reporter from portugal. buena cavallo spoke on the continuous attacks underneath i think there are people who still haven't realised that internet. it's not just one or 2 incoming, the south per day. they are around $150.00 of them. neighborhoods bombed every half hour. staying internet cannot be compared to staying in odessa cave or even hark of . we're not even talking about a city in which there is fighting on the ground. it's insane to sheldon ask on

a daily basis. it's a collective punishment for the civilian population. there is no other way to describe it in the latest cleaning selling of the city after next on wednesday morning, the permanent talk in hotel was struck and damaged, along with nearby park cars. as windows were shattered in the attack, no casualties have been the ported out is women casa, have sent us this report. several, 155 millimeter shells, stroke the sensor of genetics on wednesday morning, actually it was at 5 am. now you just saw one of the craters from the shells. now, as a result, nearby hotel was sandwich that the cars that were born here were damaged as well. now, the generator at this hotel is, are completely destroyed as well. you can see workers are now doing everything they can in order to restore operation of this hotel. now this hotel itself,

houses are workers from russia, houses adjourn. this is actually one of our crews or was at this hotel as well. archie arabic, in fact, thankfully no one was heard during this attack by ukrainian, a nationalist by their hotel rooms were destroyed and they were forced to move from here. now other damages are in a vis a high school right here. you can see the windows have been blown out now this high school was also appalling station during the latest referendum behind it. i've had that look at how big the hole is in the metal frame. that's how powerful today's blast was. thank god, only one person was on duty at the school. at that moment, she managed to hide in a bomb shelter. at 6 am, i was already at the site. he saw the damage. we will recover from this. i understand why the school was shout voting took place here yesterday, 4000 ballots from here. we're in favor of joining russia. now the at zach was

once again at 5 o'clock in the morning. the workers here did everything in order to evacuate the, the residence of this hotel as soon as possible. and of course i spoke to one of them. he told me exactly what happened this morning. purely political pickled 1st strike was at 5 am. we rushed to inspect the hotel. we told people to evacuate. in a few minutes there was a 2nd strike. every one was escorted to a bomb shelter. thank god, it ended okay. without any casualties. this is yet another crates or a right and the center of the nest that was formed by another shell fired by the ukrainian military against civilians in done as people's republic. once again, we are right in the center of this city very far away from any kind of military positions and what kind of far away from the front line as well. nevertheless, ukrainian nationalists to choose to continue to terrorize the peaceful civilians

they choose to continue to destroy civilian infrastructure, of course are the results of the referendum, have been overwhelmingly in favor of julian, russia. but people are also hoping that once they join a russia all their hardships will and as well. and they will be finally able to live in peace from on call for. have arti don't as people's republic, but keep you updated with all the latest on the events in the dawn pass for publics and breakaway regions, and what the future holds for them. ah, german opposition needed, frederick mess has been forced to apologize after he accused ukrainian refugees of being well fed tourists saying that they were simply taking advantage of the

germans states social benefit system. those common sparked outrage and the national parliament. the charter about social tourism is destroying the social cohesion that we've had so far and supporting ukraine and welcoming refugees. anyone who says something like that has 0 sense of responsibility and empathy. how does it actually fit? and we're the much vaunted solidarity of the union with ukraine. that frederick met, speaks of social tourism in the context of people fleeing this terrible war of aggression wanting to distinguish yourself by devaluing other people is an instrument right when populace regularly use friedrich mertz knows that to ukraine's ambassador to germany did not waste any time in also, lessing, out of the german opposition leader calling his statements nonsense. but before apologizing, be german politician said it was unfair for the refugees to receive welfare. white

germans are struggling economically. unit the all by those who work work hard, they pay their bills and many of them still cannot afford eating at home. at the same time, refugees and of recipients have the heating paid for. is that really fair? just this is unfair and is perceived as being unfair. and besides this, the german government is to adopt new legislation to tax people's income. more the common comes as germans continue to suffer from the rise in energy prices with the average household expected to pay $3.00 times more for gas this year than last. in the 1st half of this year, germany accepted more than $700000.00 refugees from ukraine. and up until the end of july, only less than half of them had registered as looking for work german parliament member there old austin, of the a, if the party says the refugee situation has become a real dilemma for the country. and i think this is

a problem in germany and he was most right with this statement that we have a lot of social tourism with you trying refugees because we see some effect like if you want to order a 6 bus to get to your range of exposure for, for the next 23 weeks. so this is a lot of traffic on and going back. and we see that the social benefit was pretty open for, for ukrainian and from july. so that it's much more perform ukraine when you're germany, because this is more than 500 years a month. and minimum minimum that is quite incorrect if it's going to be it will be a problem for a lot of people are not getting all the bills from, from the companies, from, from the gas companies that they have sometimes 10 times higher monthly payment

than they had before and the responsibilities are government, of course, with which has done their ridiculous energy policy for, for, for the new months on the all parties are involved with this blame game is actually going on with zach position and then, but we had a 16 year c, u government, which is murphy, and they made a lot of mistakes and energy policy and so on. i'll see, as i say, all parties in germany are responsible for this, these crisis trust, but verify. estonia prime minister person. the 2002 tank massage during the nato military drills kaya color was, was the ping the waste in the line since roles in eastern europe where she tried her skills at warfare activities by taking aim with a javelin entry tank miss all walking around trenches and winding a military pick up for the story and more you can hit on.
