well, on what this on the wall? sure. my and new other. oh, i can send more. a mortgage to you, you'll love and put them out there to give them a commission chief praise is, was he calls european units here against russia, despite escalating political and economic disputes amongst some of the countries angle boils over in washington over the okay. plus decision to slash oil output with some us lawmakers even calling the saudis world back sabbath. and can you talk phase in neighboring tanzania of genetically modified to produce entering the east african country. and i will be lift the bound to help title the grow in food prices with

very welcome to you. this is auntie international. with the latest world news update is good to happy with us. now, dozens of european leaders have been sitting down for talks in prague in an attempt to demonstrate unity and tackling the energy crisis on the, posing russia with the e commission chief us to live on the lion praising what she called the united staunch of the blog. but the summit comes as some glaring disagreements showing through the cracks of relations among european countries themselves. it were 44 countries united, discussing the challenge yourself today. and it showed how much rushes isolated by ma'am, the new e u political community and invention of french president emanuel mac holds, consisting of the 27 nation block and 17 other countries most of which aspire to join the e. u has just wrapped up this inaugural p. r. exercise in prague. now the whole point of this event in prague,

prague castle seemed to be to convince onlookers of european unity particularity in favor of ukraine and against russia. while papering over any other cracks in the solidarity facade. it. so the kind of thing that's been happening a lot lately within me, you know, we all know people like this in our own lives. they arrive at the party. it's all lovey dovey, kissy kissy and you know, darn well that in the car just before they got there. they had a huge blow up all just this week. for example, as brussels adopted 8 round of anti russian sanctions. belgium in italy sat on their hands as brussels band, semi center steel products from russia, despite knowing full well the hit that their own steel industries risk taking as a result. so they just kind of towed the line, but likely aren't thrilled about it. so during this summit, craps did show none. the less turkish president air to one used his platform to la showed in greece over their territorial disputes in the region and accused the

e. u. of supporting illegal activities masquerading his unity or solidarity. so he didn't mince words there. the block is upset with norway for maintaining high energy prices and profits. amid the gas crunch caused by brussels auto sanctions. german economy minister robert havoc brought up the issue of so called friends like the u. s. and norway exploiting e u countries desperation through price gouging. earlier this week, french president, michael used his summit platform to repeat his opposition to building a new gas connection between spain and france, which germany really wants. because it would allow cheap gas from north africa to flow into neighboring you countries and germany as well. but let's face it, france with lose a market in the long run for it's l n g plans. if it supported the project, you k prime minister list trust was also in attendance. i made a point of calling michael a friend,

even though just weeks ago she said that the jury is out on whether he's a friend or foe for britain. but here it was, all smiles, kind of, she doth protest too much. perhaps the polish prime minister didn't miss the opportunity to pick yet another fight with germany. she showed with a here to day, we often talk about the egoism of germany. it clearly shows that it cannot be the case that the european union's energy policy is being dictated by germany. financial poland also decided recently to demand reparations from jury for world war 2. and now greece is also seeking hundreds of billions of euros from germany for both world wars, $1.00 and $2.00, for the greek government and the greeks society. this issue, reparations from germany, remains open and its resolution, which is primarily a matter of principle, i think will be beneficial for all the countries and vault and the e. u. s. such,

yes, it doesn't really matter than germany has been doing the heavy lifting for both of these net recipients of you funds as the blocks primary economic engine. and now berlin, which is staring down the barrel at d industrialization and rationing from you. energy sanctions isn't exactly in the best position to be stuck with bills to right. historical ross, italy was recently chastised by none other than european commission president ursula vander line. the almighty queen of europe, herself just before voting in a knew the far right populace government. so now italy finds itself teetering on the edge of pariah status at b. e. u. alongside that other perennial pariah hungry whose prime minister had this to say about brussels performance. russia has not been brought to it's nice at all . while european economies sa, bleeding out, it is evident that the policy of factions must be changed. so that by the tend to project unity in prague, there's a lot more going on beneath the smiles in the class photo from this particular

summit. we're joining us won't be to pass now is senior research fellow of the global policy institute of london. george saw me with a many thanks for joining us on the program. it's nice to see you now ahead of the summer in prague. hungary point is to said that you are a pain, economies are bleeding out while the western sanctions have fell to head russia. however, the commission chief came to sanctions all working so well, he'll take on these conflicting statements. well, victor or bon as opposed been the the, the form to reboot of the european union for quite some time. and this is typical of what happened. he has said this over and over again, that the sanctions have not only not had the slightest effect on altering a russian policy, but they have heard the countries of the european union far more than they have

russia. and particularly as the cold weather is arriving. and will be here in europe very shortly. europe is heading for an enormous crisis. it's already bad with inflation, in double digits in every country, europe. but then, you know, heading off that was 20 percent in certain countries. but now there's always the economic slowdown because of the lack of energy. so it's a, it's a terrible situation that europe is now facing of course, you know, looking at to take care of this. so my thing progress. so smiles and hand shakes his neck. so to what extent to all these internal disputes among the attendees becoming impossible to ignore? well, the lot of these sessions they have no real purpose. so, i mean,

you know, there's so many of these kinds of forums and european council, you know, you're, you know, the european parliament, european commission, the, the, now that come up with a new one, the european political community and the invention of a man. well, mac wrong and that doesn't seem to be any work with them. what were still the wonder ally and declared, which is what will rule against russia, we will hate russia. and that, that seems to be them mantra and nothing else with a no agreement on anything. there's no decision on what to do in the future, but we're all united in hating russia. but you can ignore the balloon nicholson disputes between some of the attendees, as they must have been some sort of discussion about things like in south eastern europe, for instance, turkey and greece were, you know, increasingly over at over the state of cyprus, among other issues, how far, do you expect this particular conflict to go and what position do you think most of

them brussels might hate on this to pick sites? i, i doubt whether that will take sides at the moment on the europeans and the americans want to keep the air the one suite because everyone is threatening to vote against sweden and finland, accession inter nato. so he kind of agreed earlier in the summer. now he's been hesitating, he's saying yes to finland, but note of sweden. and so they really want to add the one on board. so they're going to go out of their way to try to locate him. and that kind of greece is kind of being very annoying because as the correspondence pointed out, you know, they're, they're just presented germany with a reparations bill for well, so they've done this before close. germany will say no, and everyone knows that germany will say no. but it just means that greece is just

being obstreperous, so i get the thing that they will probably take the side or just because they need him for the time. b. thanks to joining us on the paragraph. always good speaking to your senior research fellow as a global policy institute of london george sunny when he was speaking at the summit in prague. e foreign policy chief justice well said the autopay plus decision to slash is the oil production was a response to the new e price cap on russian. phil imports, russia, playing games with the price of a vast, certainly look a deal back with that decision to decrease the supply coil, which is a clear answer to our proposal to cap price of all you do now. the only monica has been dominated by men or legal police tick site on this supply. and now we want to limit to price is sunday,

mid answer has been to decrease quantities royal back stop as well. some us lawmakers are now calling saudi arabia and the response needs to reduce oil production as part of the opec plus decision president joe biden has said he's disappointed about the news from us. congress members are also calling for a reexamination of the countries relations with the pet plus members and even want to take measures to retaliate against saudi arabia. as we add saxons are being described as hostile to washington, his ortiz keller, more pe with more. well, essentially we have opec announce things they will be reducing the oil output by $2000000.00 barrels per day. now that is rattling the circles of power the united day. there is quite a bit of outrage on the 2 days since the announcement already. we're hearing the leaders of saudi arabia being described as back stabbers, putting a night in the back of the united states. here's what we've heard from unanswered

questions about 911, the brutal murder of journalists, jamal cas shogi, and the exporting of extremism to dubious jailing of peaceful dissidence in conspiring with vladimir putin to punish the u. s. with higher oil prices. the saudi royal family has never been a trustworthy ally of our nation. it's time for our foreign policy to imagine a world without this alliance with these royal back stabbers back stabbers. that is, the language being used to describe the long time ally of the united states, the kingdom of saudi arabia. and it appears that they consider this to be a humiliation of joe biden, at a, consider this to be hurting the economic interests of the united states. and apparently, the united states feels that it has rights over saudi arabia's oil. you'll recall economist magazine recently, i, you know, over the summer they tweeted out, meet mohammed bin solomon, that's the count. brown, prince of south of saudi arabia, the millennial autocrat who controls our oil. now that week was deleted because it

is not their oil. it is by right, the oil of the kingdom of saudi arabia, according to the constitution. but apparently, the united states feels it has some rights over it as do the british. now, at this point, what can the united states do? but rant and rave at the saudis for not doing what they want here. some of what we've heard, what saudi arabia did to help prudent continue to wage his despicable, vicious war against ukraine will long be remembered by americans. we are looking at all the legislative tools to best deal with this appalling and deeply cynical action, though the no peck bill is up for discussion. this is a bill that would allow the united states to sue opec countries take them to court, possibly have you as court, seize their assets, if they don't do what the united states wants, that would allow civil actions against opec countries by the united states in retaliation for move such as this,

that bill is up for discussion. in addition to that, the military relationship between the united states and saudi arabia is being questioned. this is what's been said as well. i just don't see any good reason for us to maintain troops that are there almost solely for the purpose of protecting their oil fields and their security interests. there's no question that mohammed been solomon, the crown prince of saudi arabia, shears putin's world view more than he shares ours. doesn't appreciate american advocacy for democracy in the world. now it's been 70 years that the united states has been aligned with the kingdom of saudi arabia. they've been one of the most loyal allies of the united states and nato in the region. you can recall after the 1979 iranian revolution, the reagan administration saying that they would never allow such a revolution to take place in saudi arabia. that is a steadfast longtime partner of the united states. but now we're seeing the circles

of power in washington, turning on them pretty rapidly in response to recent moves around opec people will recall the words of former us president george w bush, who said you're either with us or against us. and that kind of thinking seems to be prevailing in washington dc to 5, being publicly quoted on coding for a preemptive native strike, a strike nato strike against russia. ukraine's president is now claiming he was misunderstood as a result of a translation era. recommend zalinski says he meant sanctions, not military force, but his, his original statement from 1st they asked, translated by the mainstream media shopper when metal 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, to wait for rushes nuclear strikes and then say, oh no. okay, then take this well,

following last statement, muscular accused ukraine's president of trying to it spock a world war. foreign minister said a life of se zalinski wants the u. s. lead block to nuke the country of judah, zalinski, but as well. so yesterday, zalinski called on his western masters to launch a preemptive nuclear strike on russia. with his statement, he's essentially shown the whole world more evidence of the threats emanating from the key of regime, which the special operation was launched. a new to rise attempts by the links to these secretaries to claim that he meant something else or ridiculous. in this situation, zelinski like his entire regime, has got a taste and is beginning to dictate his own conditions, both to nato and to the you. the when is as they see as it nobel peace prize were announced on friday as the ukrainian president wasn't among them. he was nominated for the prestigious award by the european parliament back in march, despite his aggressive rhetoric against russia,

smoking criticism from some top foreign officials. european parliament is proposing the president of ukraine as a candidate for the nobel peace prize. how is one of the actors in the war going to receive the nobel peace prize on there others who fight for peace? why not? pope francis or the u. n. director, there must be many others. forever respect is a lensky for sinking his nobel peace prize by calling for a preemptive nuclear holocaust. on the eve of the announcement leaders pushing the world towards world war 3 and nuclear annihilation shouldn't be eligible for the nobel peace prize. zalinski calls for a nuclear world war, which will most probably in life on earth, almost on a daily basis. yet he has been nominated for the nobel peace prize. o messed up is that syndicated radio sans political analysts, lionel say the nobel peace prize has always been

a highly controversial award. the whole notion of this peace prize is fascinating. you know, mahatma gandhi never received the nobel peace prize in 1953. george marshall, who was a secretary of state of new york over the us, received it. and people were very critical and curious because he had been a combatant. but it was because of his post war activities in 2009. brock obama received the peace prize after being in office barely 8 months and years. something interesting. in times of your there were very careful as sometimes not even given out during world war one. there was no peace prize from 39 to 43. there were no peace prizes, and in 1948. i believe the year that mama gandhi a died, they said no one was entitled to it. if you look at the history of it, very rarely,

if never, has there been an actual come battened in? what would call either a military operation or a war who received a peace prize for, i think, obvious reasons. some prominent western journalists now asking why the world should risk and nuclear armageddon ever president zalinski refusal to respect the aspirations of pro russian parts of ukraine. there is a very real threat of a nuclear exchange or even a direct confrontation with russia and united states and over what, over, who governs and rules? not even ukraine, but the don bass. the eastern region in ukraine were a majority of people actually identify as ethic russians, and want to be part of russia. i want to ask a very simple question. have we as a species forgotten what nuclear conflict is? have we honestly do we need a refresher course into what we're talking about?

i mean, i, i understand that we have various degrees of amnesia. tolstoy you said history would be a wonderful thing if the were only true. but i'm hearing about this and i'm hearing about war and aggression as though we're playing some kind of a game. and i, i think this is insanity even to be discussing this cabin warily. because also it's not so much that a nuclear war could be triggered it or, or actually are directed, but things could be triggered once this starts, there's no calling it back. you know, it's interesting, okay. i did of that was a mistake. that was a, that was a typographical mistake. i, i didn't really mean that this, i can't believe. i'm frankly hearing what i'm hearing. 9 members of the organization of american states including brazil, mexico, argentina, and bolivia, have refused to support

a us backed resolution against russia. a declaration to condemn moscow's military operation and ukraine was supported by 24 other members of the american regional block. back in april, the organizations trip to russia of its permanent observer status and moved it was condemned by several members of the union. while that sat crossed to our guest, now daniel shall profess of latin america anne's carabiner studies from the city university of new york. many thanks for joining us on the program. it's nice to see as the daniel, what do you make as they says split among american nations when it comes to dealing with russia and ukraine? greetings, nicky, for a long time. washington has been used to seeing the organization of american states since its founding in 1948 is an instrument of their policy. to have so much rebellion within their ranks comes as a surprise for how long could they control the foreign policy. specifically of our mexico in now brazil, argentina in of course the bill of aryan block countries have said no,

we're not going to go along with your foreign policy. we can see very clearly that nato is just, is, are guilty, is the principal guilty party that has brought this aggression to russia's orders? yeah, big stays like brazil, argentina, or mexico also among those who refuse to condemn russia. why do you think they chose to do that? because like you say, they see nato as the aggressor? yes, to her new day, they also said are no longer going to support born. why though, is this artificial president in venezuela, who's had never had the recognition of the 30000000 people of venezuela? so things are rapidly moving to the left. i think this is another, a signal that the era of us had gemini, of running roughshod over the country. sovereignty across the world is, are coming to a screeching halt. are brazilians will go back to the polls in another 3 weeks. in

brazil should be headed, even headed, more to the left are which will mean that brazil rejoin se lock in these other latin american, a boulevard in bodies. so definitely are washington's frightened over this. this is, i normally phase of this research is willing to decide for themselves what opinion they choose and who's side by wrong. so do you think is because these countries are becoming more independent? oh, do you think it is because washington's influence is growing weaker on them? yeah, we live, we're living in a increasingly changing world. i don't think we after no longer speculate over the death now of us unipolar charity. i think we are all witnesses to what i tell my college students are every day. this is not 1991. this is not 2003 when the u. s. could just invade iraq or afghanistan or do away with libyan solvency in 2011. they are feeling more and more resistance, or whether it's from the countries are trading with the so growth initiative of the

chinese or countries that are standing up with russia militarily, or diplomatically or economically. and of course, the boulevard in countries which have spearheaded this effort here in the hemisphere. and we can see that our relation to improving between russia and brazil as well. do you think we can expect more countries to follow? i think definitely look at the elections as urine in columbia on what will this mean internally and in many of these countries are, these are massive confrontations within peer to within mexico. it's ongoing in brazil, so there's no easy victories. there's no promises, but certainly every day the foreign policy of these different countries in south america, in the caribbean, in all the 3rd world becoming more and more independent of washington. back in april when i russia status of an observer with scraps venezuela's farm,

as they criticized the organization of american stacy called it a useless body that's lost its relevance. and what do you think of that statement? is it relevant today? relevant only on the side, imperial foreign policy makers who would continue to see central america in the caribbean, in all the exploited countries in the background of the united states. this new multi lateral bodies. this tele sword and this medical sued in this una sword and all these could lewis floated the idea of the sword as a, as a latin american united currency. so all of these initiatives which are truly multi lateral, this is what watching is afraid of what we can't down play the $1000.00 us military bases and installations that continue to be a stain on humanity. in over 140 countries across the globe via u. s. secretary of state, he's welcomed this resolution to condemn and russia. but do you think that

washington is satisfied with then? the number of countries that have supported its stance on this? ah, washington will continue 25 hours a day, 8 days a week to monitor all of the ins and outs, all of the contradictions, whether it's within. she lay with this filled referendum, but people truly wanting change. none the less, whether it's in, within peer to with the executive, the presidency is more radical certainly than the congress which is very right wing . every country has its own national dynamics. and the purpose of us intelligence in the state department in the pentagon is to continue to try to defend their interests in all of these countries. both in openly meddling ways and then of course behind the curtains as usual on your show, profess of latin america and carven studies from the city university of new york. many thanks your time. really appreciate your insight. thank you, nicky ah,

tanzania, essays know at tgm. i, that's off the neighboring kenya, lift the 10 year ban on the farming and, and pause of genetically modified crops. 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. does any concern that genetically modified foods my find their way into the country? can use decision to return to the open cultivation of g m crops was made off of the worst rouse in 40 years, along with shoes in the global supply chain due to the conflict in ukraine which led to mass hunger. and so i'm gonna go over the 2nd a former presidential, that aspirants for the 202393 and election. se genetically modified food is not right for africa. i use money in the right foot,

genetically modified food, where you have to use technology to modify the genes of that from you know, so that you can have high yield. but of course highly chemicals. this is a continent described in my not of disease. in addition to the already exacerbated health issues that we have in africa, i don't want to just trying to concede a lot of challenges into, into our own continent. and honestly, i don't, we are right for jerry to colleen when you fight. we are left with him capacity to put lose our own food simply because the middle dollar countries of taking over the progression of $1440.00 in africa. fortune was the only export, declined on bomb produce the we finally know countries for export. not really the colonel where am produce the we can consume on it. and now that we are coming to the point well by the global grinnell was on crisis is a 15 and disrupting the supply chain. we are unable to produce our own food annually. the were willing to get from that was done what is technologically didn't

generically. what if i for doug me likely be chemicals also cause a lot of problems for the other guy don't to write this kind of dig. itin, africa should be able to have, is talk to where we produce only based on natural environment since we have the land mass and the capacity on your natural mean wall or can be able to produce the quantity of food that we can also mean discontinued by thanks to keeping his company here in our international this friday. for more details more on the latest news updates. just check on that site. i i don't see this conflict as being one over values. that's not to say that there might not be differences in values between elements of the us population or elements of the u. s. leadership and elements of the russian population in russia.

leadership, there may well be some differences, but i don't see this conflict as having to do with that. i see this primarily as really, frankly, a proxy war on russia's border that is being pursued by the u. s. and the neo powers. mm ah no one, no, no, no, no. hon hook, no, no less real than what they should of unit 731 was a unique organization in the history of the world. what they were trying to do was to simply do nothing short and build the most powerful and most deadly biological weapons program.
