ah, it a russia accuses you, prince president. i'm trying to start a world war after vladimir zalinski calls on nato to launch preemptive strikes against russia. the u. s. considers a response to opec's decision to cut off production, including over relations with saudi arabia. as biden's lobbying and react to keep oil exports bail to achieve its aim. and australian government thing tank claims beijing is spreading chinese propaganda, solomon islands, and the concerted information campaign can yes,

sparks fears of 10 in cannes india, genetically modified produce entering the country after the african state. a ban on such produce to help tackle a growing food crisis. with from lost out to the world. this is our to international. i'm rachel blevins and these are the top stories this our moscow says, the ukranian president is calling for the start of a world war that's after vladimir zelinski urged nato to carry out a 1st strike against russia. shopper when that'll moved it. what should nato do? and eliminate the possibility of russia using nuclear weapons. i once again appeal to the international community as it was before february 24th. we need preemptive strikes so that russia would know what awaits them if they use nuclear weapons. not the other way around him to wait for rushes nuclear strikes and then say,

oh no. okay, then take this job. well, the remarks that we heard from the ukranian leaders simply don't match the portrait of reality, that those who observe the situation are aware of, for example, we have washington saying they're not aware that russia would even be capable of using a nuclear weapon. and we have other words from washington saying that they are not sure that, that such a plan or possibility would even be in the worse. and at this point, we have russian officials coming forward and saying these very serious words that we've heard from the granting president have very serious ramifications. he's calling for a new world war. now this is the reaction from russian officials. so this statement by president zalinski must be taken into consideration by every country in the world. and especially washington london in the you states, such statements are nothing else but a call to initiate a new world war with unpredictable disastrous consequences. and they mustn't go

unnoticed by the west. the west is fueling nuclear war. every person on the planet must realize the unhinged puppet presidency. lensky bumped full of weapons, has turned into a monster whose hands can destroy the planet. and this should be a wake up call. to anyone who falls for the claims that you have is making that they want peace. if you want peace, you don't call for pre emptive strikes and a nuclear escalation. that seems to me what the ukranian president has done, and it fits a pattern of escalation here. now, recently we saw the polish leader go as far as saying that holland was willing host nuclear weapons from united states. when united states says it has no plans to put nuclear weapons in poland and is important to note that the government and it is at this point depending on loans from the west of there were not being financially brought up by nato financial prompt by the united states in particular,

and there is not a constant inflow weapons that government would have fallen. and it seems like their strategy here is to escalate as much as they possibly can to try and make this conflict as serious as desperate as extreme as they possibly can. and at the same time, claim that they somehow want peace. now it's important to note that ukraine announced they were attempting to fast track join nato to join the nato alliance. very, very quickly. something that the white house said they were not even informed of sounds like a desperate move from kiev. and the white house was not cooperating with them on it . but talking point of western media has been that russia is engaged in nuclear blackmail that they are threatening the world with nuclear weapons, black mailing the world with the nuclear issue. that doesn't exactly line up with russia's actual statements. but regardless, we now have the u. s. and western nato, back leader in here, the president of ukraine calling for pre emptive strikes against russia. now,

if that's not blackmail that's not toying with the threat of nuclear war world war 3. i don't know. what is joe biden says, the risk of nuclear armageddon is at its highest since the 1962 cuban missile crisis. we discussed the issue with a panel of guests who said that if america was open to negotiation like it was in the events of 60 years ago, instead of sabotaging a solution, the conflict would likely be resolved. i don't think they've learned lessons from history because i don't, i don't think they know history. i mean that especially in the united states. yeah . i mean, we should look to the cuban missile crisis, or how to get out of this, you know, john f kennedy bob, you know, he worked hard to negotiate a deal with crew chef. it was a given take. he agreed not to attack cuba. he agreed to take

a nuclear weapons out of turkey in return for cruise, aching, the missiles out of cuba. that is the type of negotiation we need today. but you don't see any of that happening from the u. s. you don't see the u. s helping i to negotiate a solution and back you see them interfering to prevent solution from being agreed to. so that is very, very troubling. if there was any doubt thus far, he is unhinged. i am concerned for his mental health. he is obviously willing to risk nuclear armageddon to preserve his regime. and i don't think that russia or other state leaders are that are dealing with him. can any longer consider him to be a rational actor. and we also have to take this in the context of his recent actions . he has ordered his military forces in the law over the last 2 months to

continually shell and attack with kamikaze drones. the zappa rosure nuclear power plant, whatever his absurd denials to the contrary. if western leaders do not immediately denounce his statements and back away from it, i think we have to consider them complicit if they go docs in any way. russia, that's a 3rd world war because russia is going to retaliate against all natal member states . and that would be easy. andover, oh for europe and perhaps over humanity. once we start playing these kinds of games . and i cannot understand why the leaders of the of the west are urging themselves to commit suicide. i cannot understand

o u. s. secretary of state antony blinking claims the u. s. is exploring a range of response options to the opec plus decision to cut oil production, as washington is reportedly desperate to secure cheap oil imports from venezuela and is said to be and talks to ease sanctions on the maduro government. in exchange for energy supplies. this comes after the opec plus group decided to slash its oil output, which is expected to keep fuel prices high. meanwhile, the largest u. s. oil trade groups wrote a letter to energy secretary jennifer granholm saying they are very concerned that washington is considering limiting its fuel exports in order to lower consumer prices. they said this move could only disrupt global markets, reduce domestic refining capacity and alienate u. s. allies that says joe biden is being called out by a prominent fox news host over the sabotage of the north stream gas pipelines from

russia to germany. where might some americans have gotten the notion that the, by the ministration might have been involved directly or through a proxy in the destruction of the north stream pipelines? why would they think that they surely didn't watched on russia today? or t has been pulled off the air when they learned from joe biden himself, he's the president. there will be no longer a norse tube to we will be going to do the secretary state in the bite administration, mr. tony blanket bragged about how great the sabotage of north stream was and we're quoting, it's a tremendous opportunity, said tony blanket. it's a great thing. not a tragedy. a victory. the host of our team worlds apart, oksana boy co joined my colleague nikki aaron in the studio earlier to break down the ramifications of the opec plus production cuts. white has already described this move as a hostile act, and it's

a very interesting warning because if you start from a promise that the rest of the world is supposed to be serving your interest, done everything that's for your interest would be forced to act. but saudi arabia, in many of the opec members, are considered traditional u. s. allies. and the fact that they have pretty much ignored, very, very active american law being shows that things are changing in the world. and countries are starting to pursue that own interest. the white house has yet again tried to put all the blame on russia, but i think the current division shows the even closest american alice and no longer paying attention to anything that washington is saying or doing directly pursuing their own interest just last september. and it came out that while the united states is facing such a major shortage of oil, it's sold around $10000000.00 barrels out of the strategic or the reserves to the chinese, to the chinese company. some shares of which are owned by a hunter,

biden's investment for him. so while the situation is pretty, pretty dramatic, this profit tearing, very glaring, very obvious. profiteering still goes on and, you know, it's, it's pretty amazing to see how the old schemes continued despite the fact that the situation is pretty, pretty daring. and i'll guess today off of this decision was made, i spoke to the former advisor to the saudi energy minutes. and he said, you know, this decision is not emotional. it's not politically scientific. as a scientific decision, it's not intending but it's, it's serving that objective, practical, national interest then the, you know, it's, it's interesting to see that they have the seminar to do that. primarily because the bottom mr. she has done everything to elia, made my menu with allies. the ear is the only one that seems to be left in the so called american camp. and surprisingly, the in your is, you know, in the book of countries it has absolutely no oil reserve. it would be interesting

to see how they will be doing with, with that patricians, unlike the year the united states does have its own strategic all reserves and the bite an administration has been living happily when it's over the last year. the besides and that's reserve diminished by almost a 3rd from more than 600000000 barrels to some with about 400000000 barrels. and the vitamin ministration announce yet again, that they are going to release another $10000000.00 to try to heat, to try to ease the markets and those, those additional barrels will hit the market right around the time of the mid term elections that may provide summary slide but the problem is that when you are emptying your reserves on such a short term perspective, the time to pay for that will come and it will come very soon because those reserves will have to be replenished and they will have to be replenished as much higher prices, so it's essentially they are trying to use that strategic reserves to aid the

biden's spending in the polls. but even if they win, even though the democrats, when they will have to address that problem, a couple of months down the line, know they've been a couple of years a couple of months and australian based thing tank has published a report on how it says the chinese government is influencing the solomon islands information environment and how to counter it. the chinese communist party is attempting to influence public discourse in solomon islands through coordinated information operations that seek to spread false narratives and suppress information on a range of topics. the chinese communist party has used its propaganda and is information capabilities to push false narratives in an effort to shape the solomon islands public's perception of security issues in foreign partners. the australian strategic policy institute claims to have proof that beijing is undermining the solomon islands relationship with foreign partners,

particularly australia and the u. s. it also says paging is using the islands online information environment to amplify chinese state media, particularly on facebook. according to the thing tank, some solomon islands, decision makers and journalists are linked to the china, solomon islands friendship association. china has previously said it respects the national sovereignty of the solomon islands, and the cooperation is based on its needs. the australian strategic policy institute is a holy own commonwealth company form back in 2001. and it claims to be an independent and non partisan thinking. but it receives funding from overseas governments, including the u. s. department of defense with the total of $1500000.00 in $2023021.00. the u. k for an office also contributed $230000.00 over the same time period. while the japanese and embassy and can

birth donated $70000.00 to the institute. we heard from tim anderson, director of the center for counter hedge, a monic studies from sid me, who says the us military funded institute simply says what washington wants. the thing about i is that it is not even reveal in the meeting here in australia, and they have funded by destroyed in the military and by the u. s. military and my weapons manufacturers. and they also have tied journalists in the, in the stores use like media. and also the people that those hide journalists interview are also often paid boy sources linked to the u. s. military. and so there's, unfortunately a very strong loop here. it's just a straight propaganda channel for the u. s. military saying what the u. s. military wants. unfortunately, he has started the media to so badly compromise and doesn't recognize the conflicts

of interest. but people are being fooled by that. i mean the, the abc, the, the, you're struggling to study media does not even acknowledge that the people that live interviewing with s b is funded by and destroyed in and the u. s. military. and of course, a u. s. military on these try in the military, have their own agenda in relation to china in the pacific region. the republic of korea and the u. s. will reportedly whole joint maritime exercises on the 7th and 8th of october in response to a north korean missile launches. this causes a south korean ballistic missile malfunction and crashed on the outskirts of the military base on wednesday during a live fire drill conducted with american forces. the crash which occurred amid heightened tensions with north korea caused panic among local residents and municipal official in this city where the incident took place accused the government of using taxpayer money for weapons that threatened the countries own

people. a short range missile was equipped with a war, had been denied at ne, upon impact. no casualties were reported. the exercises began days after you as a vice president, comalla harris visited south korea in a show of solidarity as at neighboring north korea, ramped up test of its own strategic arsenal. earlier this week, north korean in north korea test fired a missile over japan into the pacific ocean. in response, japan and the u, as urged the un security council to take action accusing russia and china of enabling the north korean nuclear program. russia has said that the sanctions against north korea had come to a dead end without achieving the desired results. dpr k has enjoyed blanket protection from 2 members of this council. these 2 members have gone out of their way to justify that dpr,

kay's repeated provocations and block every attempt to update the sanctions regime . in short, 2 permanent members of the security council have enabled kim young on. this is a clear effort by china and russia to reward dpr k for their bed actions and cannot be taken seriously by this counsel only will credit nicola, choosing this, china and russia have tabled a joint resolution of the d p r k. with the intention to ease the humanitarian situation on the ground, create a favourable atmosphere for mutual trust among all parties and resume dialog on the korean peninsula issue. the un security councils deliberations should contribute to dialogue rather than fueling escalation issue. and while russia and china insist that join us south korea drills in the south pacific provoke, north korea, you as a master to the un, rejected the remarks saying there is, quote,

no equivalency between these 2 activities. earlier, north korea also accused washington its allies of threatening it with joint drills and a military build up international journalist, eric. so mark believes that north korea sees it's nuclear and missile programs has a necessary deterrent against perceived aggression. i should say on behalf of china, because i'm a permanent resident of china. that chinese positional along has been that there should be no nuclear weapons on the korean peninsula. china, is it close to further nuclear proliferation? and so is russia. indifference is they understand why north korea is resorting to this extreme measure because it's afraid united states, as military forces stationed in south korea,

adjacent right to north korea since the korean war. and just before the recent missile jazz is conducted yet another large scale, a military operation or military exercise alongside the south korean army. so it's not hard to imagine the mindset of north korean leaders who seen this and think we'd better show that we're not like iraq was some years ago when senator hadn't weapons of mass destruction that didn't have any. so it was invaded tanza nea will step up as a vigilant against the importation of genetically modified crops after neighboring kenya approved the forming and import taishan of biotechnology crops following a 10 year ban. we are not open to such genetically modified technology. kenya's move has no effect on us. we will keep on utilizing the hybrid op varieties as our

various studies maintain, that we have enough in the very best hybrid seeds that are commercially viable and more productive than g m. tanzania is concerned that genetically modified foods might find their way into the country. kenya's decision to return to the open cultivation of g m crops was made after the worst route and 40 years along with issues in the global supply chain. due to the conflict in ukraine which led to mass hunger. the g and band came into effect back in 2012 effectively prohibiting the open cultivation and planting of genetically modified crops as well as the importation of food crops and animal feeds produce through biotechnology innovations. i dont know, gar, but the 2nd a former presidential candidate for the 2023 nigerian election says that gm food is not right for africa. that's with the right to generically.

what if i where you have to use technology to modify digital duction? you know, so that you can have high yield. what, of course, highly chemicals. this is a continent disreputable look disease in addition to the order d exacerbated health issues that we have in africa. i don't, we're just trying to concede a logo challenges into, into all continent. and honestly, i don't to, we have like told joe to colleen want to fight. we are living with him capacitor to prove whose own food simply because the middle dollar, according to self ticket or by the professional $1440.00 to norfolk or forcing was the only export the colonel from produce the farming countries for export. not really the colonel graham, brutal don't consume on, you know, that we're coming to the point well by the global grenier was on groceries is affected. disrupting the supply chain. we are unable to produce over until you hit the will really to get from the was don't want to stick a little. you can need to even jump to coming would if i for doug me,

likely be chemicals will cause a lot of problems for them. of a guy don't to well right, he's kind of to guy jim. africa should be able to have his truck to where we produce. oh and he bruce will not trillion bowers since we have to learn was under capacity on do not mean wall of can be able to lose the orange juice for the week. of course, i mean just questioning and not so late as her rash. as her song rage at were the ukrainian military has attacked a key bridge using american supplied high mars missiles. russian air defense system was shot down the projectiles, at least 5 of them before they could land at their target. as you can see here in this footage, several plumes of smoke were spotted about the antenna, laskey bridge, which stretches across the nipper river. local authorities say there were no casualties as a result of that ukrainian attack across on the russian republic of dun nascar. t war correspondent andre for la tough has been wounded for

a 2nd time while covering the military conflict. he was hit by shrapnel while preparing a report about an ongoing battle in the area. now, a warning, the following footage contains some graphic content to appear to me your new milk or i knew i was hit again. another small wound. i don't need any metal for this is awesome. great achievement. it had me right here in my hip. it's not a big deal. i'll go get an x ray. it probably didn't strike any of my bones so it's nothing to fuss about. i'll recover from this and return to work. however, while ukraine says it's determined to hand down any one it believes to have collaborated with russia british tabloid. the daily mail has published an article about the apparent extra judicial killings is size of former senior official as saying that ukrainian troops can even shoot such suspects on site. a

manhunt for collaborators has been declared their lives are not protected by law or intelligence services or eliminating them, shooting them like pigs. the daily mail revelations come as a surprise, as it's article contains a number of accusations against the russian military and russian intelligence allegedly committed atrocities. but a significantly bigger part of it is all about her merciless ukrainians are hunting . all those loyal to the russian forces and joint forces administrations on the ground and killing them like pig. this is something that one would never expect from a democratic country. that's the west bush's everybody to believe ukraine is. the article also says that has revenge killings, orchestrated by ukraine. special forces have been recently increasingly well organized. here's another quotation. let's take a listen. others are being tracked down and slaughtered by resistance fighters. a list passed to this newspaper by a key government source identifies 29 such retribution killings with 13 morrison

nation attempts that left some targets wound it. well, it's true that, that we never heard things like these from a daily mail kind of media, but it's low for the 1st time that we learn about key regimes. war on all those who are they believe and collaborating with the russian and join forces on the ground earlier r t made an exclusive report on as we you, agent to. yep. and that took was job, was to organize terror acts and murders targeting pro russian politicians throughout harrison region. and earlier this week, we heard at personal advice from ukraine's vice prime minister st. collaborators run away that a tragic thing is that cubes term collaborator is in fact include a very wide range of people from those who actually held the russian military on the ground to those who simply agreed to receive humanitarian aid from moscow. so literally, anyone who agreed to stay in the area after russians to control,

we now hear reports about massive arrests of teachers, doctors, ordinary walkers and the areas left by the russians. and we year that up to 40 people get detained every day. this is what ukraine's defense ministry says, and i have to remind you that these are just normal, simple people doing their everyday job. and even some of you, politicians started questioning this kind of democracy. let's take a listen. the e u says ukraine is fighting to defend democracy from authoritarianism. russia is authoritarian, but western governments plus the media are misinforming by failing to call out anti democracy measures in ukraine, while dissenting voices in the e you are being silenced. this is also authoritarianism. getting back to daily mail publication, the feeling is that although admitting that ukraine is behind a great number of revenge killings, the paper is somehow justifying them by saying that yet another uncomfortable truth

is that some ukrainians, having deed, been assisting russian administrations on the ground while the fact that later they were hunted and killed like pigs is actually not considered as uncomfortable. these kinds of stories simply do not go with the general narrative that's being cultivated among western outlets. which would like for their audiences to believe that ukraine is a thriving democracy, some kind of beacon of freedom in europe as opposed to the state of fascist terror and which ukrainians find themselves today. some of those who were quoted in this daily mail piece include anti garrett shank. both interior ministry advisor, who is one of the founders of the middle board, it kill list i was placed on that kill list last week, many journalists, i know who work with have been placed on the kill list. but all of that, again,

is not being reported in mainstream media. either. a german media outlet has debunked a claim by defense ministry alleging russian soldiers tortured people in a northern ukrainian town. that allegation came after ukrainian troops said they had uncovered a box filled with hundreds of gold sheets and territory previously held by russia. ukraine defense ministry tweeted about the discovery claiming the create was found alongside were called torture tools after the ukrainian allegation when viral accrue from germany is billed magazine, visited the town and found a local dentist who said the cheese were actually part of his personal collection. he was directly asked if the chief had actually come from the deceased oh gosh, no. they come from people i've treated over the years. i pulled those teeth out because they've gone bad. independent journalist jason, michael says ukrainian media is

a propaganda machine that tries to work with europeans, deepest fears. in the european imagination, when we look at images of golds fillings from teeth, we think of immediately think of our search and the extraction teeth from that all these during the holocaust after the graphing of juice. this is a very clever image and you know, resonates with one of your deepest fears. and of course this. ready war is very much the mobilize ation of ideas in the west against the east, i guess in particular. so yes, if this had not been debunked, this was a very powerful image. and one that would be want to convince a lot of viewers who wouldn't be otherwise looking to dig deeper into the story, to reaction fees from key will be very much the same as we go from, from the book in the past. essentially what we're looking at in kiev is a propaganda machine.
