and we need to make rules for the rest. because without us there with me. oh, moscow accuses ukraine's president of trying to start a world war after vladimir zalinski called on nato to launch preemptive strikes against russia. the u. s. considers is response to opec. the decision to cut oil production, including over relations with saudi arabia, as bivens, lobbying and re jada to keep oil exports, fell to achieve its aims. and australian government thing tank claims. beijing is spreading chinese propaganda in the solomon islands and a concerted information campaign can yes,

spark spears of camp. in tanza, nia, genetically modified produce entering the country or the african state lifts a ban on such produce to help tackle a growing food crisis. ah, from moscow to the world, this is our t 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 actor vladimir zelinski, urged nato to carry out a 1st strike against russia. chopin, when that'll be. what should nato do? 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 russia nuclear strikes and 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 works. 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. 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. now,

the russian foreign ministry spokeswoman pointed out that zalinski is essentially fueling and nuclear war that he's become a, a monster who can destroy the planet. 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. and recently we saw the polish liter go as far as saying that poland was willing to host nuclear weapons from united states. when i did state says it has no plans to put nuclear weapons in poland and is important to note that the government in kiya is at this point depending on lawns from the west of there were not being financially brought up by nato financial propped up by the united states in particular, and there was not a constant inflow of weapons that government would have fallen. and it seems like near strategy here is to ask a late as much as they pop. we 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 family nato alliance. very, very quickly. something at the white house said they were not even informed up. sounds like a desperate move from kiya and the white house was not cooperating with them on it . now the foreign ministry spokesperson for russia, maria is a car of a. she pointed out that essentially you have western media playing up. this idea that russia is a nuclear threat. when in reality it is the key of government that continues to attack the nuclear power plant, putting the danger of a nuclear disaster before the world. and that now with these calls for a pre emptive strike by the ukrainian leader, looks pretty clear that the nuclear blackmailing is coming from the other side from the ukrainians, openly smee, the western media is

a tool in the hands of the western intelligence agencies. they're trying to implant a nuclear rhetoric into the public discourse, accusing russia of conducting nuclear black male finding. this is how the machine works as soon as russian officials say something, for example, about our position of not having been the 1st country to actually use nuclear weapons or absolute adherence to all our regulations about these arms. immediately the western media cuts out certain key words, pace them into their articles, and throws everything else away, fabricating something that is exactly the opposite of what we stated. this escalation from the granting leader should be taken seriously by everyone. however, the western media seems to have turned a blind eye to the actions of zalinski. now at this point, will be waiting to see what the global reaction is from these provocative remarks from the grain president that are pretty tantamount to calling for world war 3.

meanwhile, the cranium president spokesperson has already backtracked ansolaski words. he explained that he was talking about a period before february 24th. and the only measures that could be helpful are sanctions. this comes as joe biden says, the risk of nuclear armageddon is at its highest since in 1962 cuban missile crisis . we discussed the issue with a panel of guests who said that if america was open to negotiations, 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 crew taking 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 tax in any way russia that so the 3rd world war, because russia is going to retaliate against all nato 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, blanket and 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. now 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 a global markets, reduce domestic, we're finding capacity and alienate us allies. that's as joe biden has been called out by prominent fox news host over the sabotage of the nordstrom 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 certainly didn't watched on russia today? or t has been pulled off the air when they learned it from joe biden himself, he's the president. there will be no longer a norse tube to we. we will be going to do the secretary state. in the vita ministration, mr. tony blanket bragged about how great the sabotage of north stream was and were quoting. it's a tremendous opportunity, said tony blanket. it's a great thing. not a tragedy. a victory. the host of our 2 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 worth your interest would be a hotel 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 station shows the even closest american alice and no longer paying attention to anything that washington is saying or doing and directly pursuing their own interest just last september. and use 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 hearing very glaring, very obvious profiteering still goes on and, you know, it's, it's pretty amazing to see how the all schemes continued despite the fact that the situation is pretty, pretty daring. and all. yesterday, often this decision was made, i spoke to the former advisor to the saudi energy minutes. and he said, you know, this decision, it's not emotional, it's not politically scientific. as a scientific decision. it's no different, but it's, it's serving the objective, practical, national interest. then it's interesting to see that they have the seminar to do that, primarily because the bottom mr. she has done everything to alley and made my menu with allies. the ear is the only one that seems to be left in the so called american camp. and surprisingly, in your is, you know, in the book of countries, it has absolutely no oil reserve. it would be interesting to see how there will be

doing with, with that situation. unlike the, even the united states does have its own strategic all reserves, and the biting administration has been living happily when it's over the last year or 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. and see it 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 some response. 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 standing in the polls. but even if they win, even 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. meanwhile, the e u has officially adopted. it's a package of sanctions against moscow, including the 4 territory, but recently joined russia after referendums there, the new restrictions include a price cap on oil imports from russia by c. although pipeline supplies are not affect, it imports of some russian goods, including steel, paper, and plastic are now also banned. plus the measures prohibit some e u. exports to russia, such as coal ation equipment and certain chemicals. while the e u sanctions are aimed at russia, serbian officials say they are the ones who will have to pay the prize. and even in the issue itself, some top officials are warning that europeans will bear the brunt of the political

decisions made and brussels fear. pin union has again proven that is, is a club of countries that once had their soldiers install in grad, the only consistency in this policy is revenge upon free people. serbia was forbidden to import russian oil through the adria attic pipeline. but bulgaria was not. serbia is forced to buy more expensive iraqi oil and thus lose hundreds of millions of euro's the could have been used more effectively. we are risking a massive d industrialization of the european continent and the long term consequences of that might actually be very deep. our populations are getting invoices which are completely insane. at some point it will snap. i understand that people are angry. people don't have the means to pay for it. belgrade based political analysts, alexander patch says, serbia is being punished for refusing to join what is essentially an e u. suicide pat. all the serbian high officials from the president prime minister

to the minister of defense. they just protest, larry b, m and niger because it is practically sanctioned measure against serbia. and, you know, we all know why that is, is because serbia, the alone country. you know, in this part of europe practically in all of europe, which is not which is refusing to impose sanctions against russia. so this is also seen a kind of a threat and a revenge. it revenge as serbia on the part of the you are not imposing sanctions against russia. they are trying to deny serbia song gear, political choices. it choices to be neutral in a conflict. you're trying to interact with serbia, q, u suicide. and australian based thing tank has publish your report, claiming that the chinese government is influencing the solomon islands information

environment and advising on 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. china has previously said that it respects the national sovereignty of the solomon islands and that cooperation is based on its needs. they are surely in the strategic policy institute claims that have proved that beijing is undermining the solomon islands relationship with foreign partners, particularly australia and the us. it also says beijing is using the island online information environment to amplify chinese state media, especially on facebook. according to the thing, thing, decision makers and journalists there are linked to the china,

solomon islands friendship association, despite claiming should be an independent thing. take f. b. i receives donations from the australian and overseas governments, including the u. s. department of defense, which gave a total of $1500000.00 from 2020 to 2021. the u. k for an office also contributed $230000.00 over the same time period. while the japanese embassy in canberra donated $70000.00 to the institute, we heard from tim anderson, director of the center for counter hedge, a monic studies from sydney, who says the u. s. military funded institute simply says, what washington wants. the thing about i s t i is that it is not even reveal in the media here in australia that they have funded by destroying the military and by the u. s. military and my weapons manufacturers. and i also

have tied journalists in the, in the georgia state media. and also the people that those hide journalists interview are also often pied boy sources linked to the u. s. military. and so there's, unfortunately, a very strong loop in, it's just a straight propaganda channel. for the u. s. military saying what the u. s. military wants, unfortunately, he has started made years so badly compromised and doesn't recognize the conflicts of interest that people are being filled by that. i mean the, the i, b, c, the, the australians like media does not even acknowledge that the people that they're interviewing with s b is funded by and destroyed in and the u. s. military. and of course in u. s. military on these try, the military had their own agenda in relation to china in the pacific region cans, and nea will step up its vigilance against the importation of genetically modified crops after neighboring kenya approved the farming and importation of biotechnology crops. falling

a 10 year ban. we are not open to such genetically modified technology can use 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 and the global supply chain due to the conflict in ukraine which led to math hunger. the g m then came into effect in 2012, effectively prohibiting the open cultivation and planting of genetically modified crops, as well as the importation of food crops and animal feeds, produced through biotechnology innovations, damage garbage. the 2nd, a former presidential aspirant for the 2023 nigerian election says gm food is not

right for africa. okay, he's moved here to right. what do i need to can the, what if i, where you have to use technology to modify the genes of doctrine, you know, sort of, you can have high yield. what, of course, highly chemicals. this is their continent described in my not of disease. in addition to the already exacerbated health issues that we have in africa, i don't where i just trying to see a lot of challenges into, into all continent. and honestly, i don't to, we are right, full genetically modified. so we are left with incapacity to produce our own food simply because the middle dollar country from taking over the progression of $1440.00 in africa. fortune was the only export declined on bomb produce the we find, you know, countries for export not really to go to where am produce the we can consume on it or know that we are coming to the point well by the global grinnell which on crises

is affecting our distorting the supply chain, we are unable to produce all food annually. hilda were willing to get from that was don't want to stick with the lord. you can you believe in generally going what if i for doug me likely be chemicals of course a lot of problems for the other guy don't to how to write this kind of thing. i didn't africa should be able to have, is talk to where we produce old bristle natural environment since we have the land was. and the capacity under natural, i'm in wall of can be able to produce the quantity of food. we can also mean discontinued and now to late as from russia as her song rate at where the ukranian military has attacked a key bridge using american supplied high mars missiles. russian air to friends system shot down the projectiles, at least 5 of them before they could land at their target. as you can see in this footage here, several plans of smoke were spotted about the anti not ski bridge, which stretches across the napa river. local authorities say there were no casualties as

a result of the ukrainian attack. so across on the russian republic i've done nascar t war correspondent andre fell out off, 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. and a warning. the following footage contains some graphic content to appear at some your new mucus. 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 pushing. i'll recover from this and return to work. however, despite western resistance, the world has irreversibly changed and states should accept the new reality. the russian foreign ministry has urged thus as the russian officials called on countries to recognize the referendum in the dawn bass and the hearse on ends.

upper oci regions international observers including those from italy, germany, venezuela, latvia, and other states. more than 130 people over all who followed the referendums have recognized the results as legitimate. we call on the you and member states to accept a new inevitable reality dictated by life itself and based on the free expression of peoples. will. this appeal comes as western states are pushing for the un to adopt her resolution denouncing russia for what they say is an annexation of former ukrainian territories. officials are using all means to convince potential allies to condemn russia, including messages, phone calls, personal interactions, and public statements. the draft document is expected to be voted on next monday during an emergency session convened after russia vetoed a similar proposal at the un security council. the new document ames to isolate moscow, which has in turn, branded the draft resolution as

a sham not worth supporting while, insisting on a secret ballot instead of a public vote. this is a clearly politicized and provocative development aimed at deepening the divide in the general assembly. the recent discussions in the security council clearly showed that his pen holders of the draft, the usa and albania, demonstrated no real willingness to negotiate and search for compromise, but rather try to impose on the rest of the counsel already made document built around their own political priorities, we have all the reasons to call it a sham resolution. as its only aim was to provoke a russian veto. the backlash against russia was prompted by the recent referendums and don esque and lou gone republics along with the hearse on anne's approach. she read is an overwhelming majority of over 90 percent of the total ballots cast are voted in favor of joining russia. but the people's will have been persuaded. the u . s. or the you who insist the vote was illegal. russia's 1st deputy permanent

representative to the un points out the washington itself is guilty of using undemocratic methods to retain its influence. i think that the us is viewing the whole world as it's playground towns the you and there's something that should really rubber stamped the decision that i made in washington. many of my colleagues complains that in the campaign of him, twisting and blackmail and threats is in full swing. and it's very difficult to, to show the way from, from these 4 countries who have mobile notable economy systems zones, economic situations. and this is, of course, very much deplorable. it's the right that this is a, this has nothing to do with democracy. this has nothing to do with the freedom of speech. it's just the family of the united states to mobilize the supports under their decisions on the decisions that profitable for them to,

to people ongoing their leading position in the world affairs, which they are very keen to preserve together with their allies. denmark prime minister has called a snap general action 7 months ahead of schedule. met through your accent has not been able to shake a controversial 2020 decision to call the countries entire 17000000 mink population . she called the pole after her coalition partners, the social liberal party issued her and also made him threatening to withdraw and support the election comes with denmark at the center of an international crisis over the damage to the north dream pipelines. and right now, what is going on is that all the partition will go and have the election campaign. so there is no actually work from the politicians right now. and this is the worst time it's now people need help. it's not in, in the half a year,

then maybe the people who reprogram streets and i don't think that's do it. yes you did, you did. and that was stupid, but you know, we can all make mistakes in the walls. i think they've gotten new grid. but the prime minister may face an unexpected rival and former immigration minister, anger stowed bird who has started her own party, the denmark democrats. she was released from prison earlier this year after being sentenced to 60 days for unlawfully separating refugee couples. the party is pulling in 4th place behind the liberals and conservatives. earlier we spoke with the head of the rwandan, does the marines, the party on the danish snap election? is that a country has the sun, does andy bodies to day tennis? and as it is easy for a man to change just for one simple issue,

when a day i amended the order more important issues. this is no money, but it is especially democratic, a country. and i think in denmark, i see the government economy lee. we can design a government to design because of the day it's hard to be seen and it's a day or want to come to day when we to the crime, i don't know which, which kind of kind of hit me to the guest or for just by a, i don't think that the, if you have to be elite also did democratic because you have to be a good example or to speak to do. did you money, right? sure. to speak to different it sounded a virus democracy and to you monday night. that's all for now for sure to check out

our t dot com for all the latest breaking news and that day we'll see right back here at the top of the hour. ah ah ah, mine should have it completed.
