ah, and with headlines for this hour, live on out into national power, has now been restored to around 2000 people in the russian region of belgrade, very closely ukrainian border offer a sub station was report lee shell, the by key forces with we're working proactively and within the opec plus framework, our president vladimir putin says, cooperation between russia and the united arab emirates, aims to create stability and global energy market. both the concepts in ukraine does not end in the american economic domination and a weakening of the process finance minute to warn you against

a washington's quote gas domination pointing out but imported liquefied natural gas from the us costs 4 times more than on america's own domestic market with coming to you from moscow. this is an international from a rural res to show you the entire news team here. a variable welcome to here. so key of forces are portly shelled a sub station in the russian region of belgrade. it's very close to the ukranian border or the attack left around 2000 people without power after a transformer was hit. although authorities now say paula has since been restored, as we understand there are no reports of any casualties. however, more details available with our correspondent ecos. mm. it seems that he is sort of trying to bite back as for the 2nd consecutive days. it's the major cities and towns on the well, almost 8 and bombardment,

and under constant miss allan drone attacks are coming from russia. now russia, of course, is targeting the critical energy infrastructure in ukraine, which is sort of a major shift in its policy towards how it's waging the war in the country. but right now ukraine is trying to retaliate for that and are they have indeed targeted? apparently a power station, or in just outside the russian town of belgrade. the town of belgrade itself is fine, but a smaller one town. indeed, some several 1000 people have been left without electricity. and this sold situation, i have to say to bit of a catch 22 because russia basically russia explained its attacks and it said that well, key of had previously escalated. it's well, it's attacks on the russian soil on the critical infrastructure on civilian cities, on the cities of wool on the town of lou ganske on the outskirts of la guns, the towns of de nets could towns on the russian territory. they even sheldon

monastery and of course the so to speak, crowning jewel of all that was the bombing of the crimea bridge. so thou was the, apparently the red line that rush had been talking so much about since the beginning of its special operation. so yesterday we saw a truly massive in its scale missile attack and drone attack on the critical infrastructure of ukraine. today, it continued this activity. ah, it continued to not as large scale as it was yesterday, but still dozens of missiles hit our power stations, thermal power stations in ukraine, and other military and will energy sector our facilities. and so are right now. apparently, key of forces is trying to well bite back. and again, it leaves the whole, this whole situation in a state when no, no state wants to back down. and even while in ukraine, the damage has already been will not critical. know we're still far from that, but rather extensive, still people on the ground in ukraine, they are feeling it,

they so rolling blackouts that have been announced, there's problems with the water supply problems with electricity supply in ukraine . pretty much you close to all major regional centers. so right now, russia basically rushes message has been stopped targeting our territory, stop targeting rushes, critical infrastructure, blake, for months, russia kinda withheld this ability withheld this power out to attack to attack a ukraine's critical infrastructure deep behind enemy lines. russia cold for 22 are for you, for the ukraine to stop called on key of to stop, but well, right now, the ukranian now the ukranian authorities and military command are showing no signs of ever intending to do so. lo, ethan countries out meanwhile, reacted with condemnation and fury. thrushes on missile strikes on ukraine, a germany immediately vowing to send it bonds to

a different system to the country. in the meantime, estonians prime minister said that russia was using terrorist tactics. that is, despite just a few days ago, a stony as top diplomat, congratulating ukraine for blowing up the crimea bridge. la rushes, foreign minister, sir gala for off, has denounced what he called hypocrisy in western attitude. zappa, he good, i it. the west plays a game called here, nothing, see nothing, and wins, alaska is at fault. but when russia finally respond seriously, when it's no longer able to tolerate the crimes of the key to resume the terrorist attacks of the key frizzy. and then everyone immediately begins to come to nation, including to my great regret, the un secretary general antonia with their ashes. in other situations has maintained a deathlike silence and showed nothing of his excitement or his concern. which of the actions that were taken yesterday by the us military, he has suddenly begun to threat authority and with the west branding russia is asked on ukraine, is terrorism just for a moment here on the program. let's look back door comparison and how the western

media justify nato stripes on the balkans in the 1990 is calling them a door to piece with joe biden at the time being one of the loudest voices for quote, bringing the sub's to heal. i was suggesting we bomb belgrade. i was suggesting that we send american pilots in and blow up all the bridges on the drain . and i was suggesting, we take out his oil supplies. we will continue to impose costs on russia for its aggression hold prudent in russia accountable for its atrocities and war crimes, and provide the support necessary for ukraine forces to defend their country and their freedom. defending the freedom of albanians and cause. if i was the explanation from the west for nato's bombing of serbia in 190909, look at these pitches the intervention which did not have the approval of the un loss of the 78 days. that left parts of the country and ruin nato forces of serbian tv channel while us bomb struck the chinese embassy in belgrade,

killing 3 journalists of aging, even a few nato, of a gross violation of international law and the killing of a number of innocent civilians. nato claims old targets, while legitimate light discussed the storage. it's been earlier in the program with a serbian and political analyst, alexander the package. he believes when it comes to ukraine. western professional partners are not interested in a peaceful resolution. we have proof now that russia try to reach produce back in late march or april and of course, what happened was that the western powers, mainly washington in london. i mean, boy johnson flew to tell the land ski if he doesn't. if he reaches piece a piece agreement with russia, he's not going to get support. it's not going to be supported by london at washington. ever since then, there's been absolutely no sign that the west wants peace. and as long as the work

doesn't want peace, there won't be any peace because he will keep sending tens of thousands of young man to are totally senseless death. because the less want to wage war, i'm russia until the last ukrainian that's totally obvious is one of the most cynical wars in history. and russia just has to stop that in any way possible. that's the only way to stop was for. so a victory for vladimir putin and ukraine would be a defeat for nato. that's according to the alliance as secretary general. again, stolen bug, who cited a common threat as the need to keep pumping weapons and to ukraine. that is important for all of us that ukraine wins. why? the battle, the war against the invading russian forces? ah, because if putin wins that is not only a big defeats for ukrainians,

but as all the defeat and dangerous for all of us because it will make the world more dangerous and it will, will make us more vulnerable. busy for further russian aggression what mr. so that brings us to, we're only enlarge the wall and it will be the in profit and benefit of the nato state weapon industry. no one else will be in profit by that because then just the wall will be last, like we can see the wall where the natal states involved with reference to the ukraine, where the u. s. and the british government calls ukraine to stop in the cation or major state governments in the moment, not strong enough, or not really to stop this aggressive course, which only will lead to more people that and the ukraine, and gone through all the mall. because escalating

them all, the nato somehow is involved into it, leads into chaos on europe, and maybe for all the was we really, really, really have to stop. as president vladimir putin has said, cooperation between russia and the united arab emirates is aimed at creating well global security energy around the world fits as opposed to actually calm the markets regionally. and globally now, is comments came as the leaders of the 2 countries met in some petersburg, the venice of the north had a very cordial meeting. big fat handshake details. now with a trend the most important message was about opec plus. so, just a few days after the opec plus nation's reached an agreement on our or production caught, the russian president vladimir putin refuted western claims that moscow teamed up with other or producing countries to cause problems for other nations. were working

proactively and within the opec plus framework. i know your position, our decisions and our actions are not directed against anyone. we are not acting in a way that would cause problems for anyone. our combined actions are aimed to create stability on the global energy markets. so the consumers, producers, and suppliers feel safe, stable, and secure. the united arab emirates, along with russia and saudi arabia are a key opec, plus member and all opec members were under fire last week for agreeing on a production caught of $2000000.00 barrels a day, which saw prices climb. most of the anger came from the us, where the president joe biden has been desperate to keep fuel prices low. in fact, it's been widely reported that american diplomats ahead of the opec plus meeting in vienna put an enormous amount of pressure on oil, which gulf countries the goal was to force them to refuse the production caught.

but it didn't work. and there you have, it's the president of the united arab emirates in saint petersburg talking about the strengthening of ties with russia. it only shows that at least from now, arab countries are nowhere near the ranks of russia haters. well, i mean, while washington is looking to rethink its time to saudi arabia, after the kingdom chose to back opec's decision to reduce oil production by 2000000 barrels a day. many democrats, according for the immediate stoppage to weapons sales, to re add. i think the president's been very clear that this is the relationship that we need to continue to reevaluate that we need to be willing to revisit and certainly in light of the opec decision. i think that's where he is, and he's willing to work with congress to think through what that relationship ought to look like going forward. all right, crossing life, the journalist african returns he joining us live here and this hour on the program

a very good evening to you. so as always, great to see you. so look, it was just weeks ago, joe biden, cap in hand, went to re add, looking for a production and a boost, an oil production. he went back to washington, calling it a success. now we have opec saying that going to reduce production, and yet as you know, option washing washington is always, it always likes to boast about as close ties to the saudis. now it seems like right now there's a, a bit of a shift in that relationship. what do you think? it's such a collapse in decades. olga geopolitical relationships, isn't it? i mean, we just look at the united states. i mean, you could actually say 2 things. i want to get on to the u. a because he president was in st. petersburg in the past few hours and it just that fact. i mean, if you take all of your politics away from it, this town do buy it. it's booming. so any politician here arguably is going to go look at the fuel cards in the poverty in the european union and the catastrophic

economic consequences. the u. s. i'm going to look eastwards, but that, that to one side, if for historically the united states over through a democratically elected government in iran setting in training the islamic revolution than they sanctioned iran. so then what would they do? they sanctioned venezuela. they tried to over there the gum to venezuela. good. chavez tried to overcome again, cost of sanctions killing an estimate of $40000.00 people in venezuela. they then sanction russia, they were saying they were going to sanction russia in oil products before anything happened as regards putin trying to rescue the people have done yet can lance in ukraine. so we're, all they seem to have done had sabotaged themselves one time after another. and now suddenly when saudi arabia seems to be looking eastward just as the way he and all of us plus, arguably, are off golf course. and they're going to suddenly go, look, we'll threaten you in other ways, janet yell and treasury secretary, this is not

a wise move. and then suddenly weapon ization of human rights. you mentioned that you mentioned sanctions against iran just a moment ago, many, many would say that sanctions against iran are also targeting china. so i guess in some sense you're going to get 2 birds with one stone there that when it comes to opec actually thing, we're gonna, we're gonna cut production. we haven't seen any retaliatory matches from washington yet, but i guess what could america and western allies do over the opec decision? they're clearly not happy about it. well, given that they are tied in to, in the o liberal economy framework and interest rates are correlated to oil prices, historically, that's why i'll prices and the, and the power of this region i'm speaking to you from is so absolute and usually has been arguably a proxy for united states policy. why it's so important. what can the united states all it seems to be able to do is use cultural weapons, restart. it was only

a few hours after hours just before the you. a president chang. mom had been zayden, arrived at st. petersburg, b, b, c, was trying to arguably insult the ruler of you by. and suddenly we're going to be seeing stories about human rights in saudi arabia that we never did that before. when all the campaign is we're talking about human rights in the biden administration to go reportedly saying, oh, well, now we will look into ideas about yemen and supplies. so basically they'll use the media, which seems to be working just fine as a, as a complete stenographer propaganda system in western countries. and then they will also use human rights, which is an insult, arguably hundreds of thousands, tens of thousands of workers in humanitarian. and jose and human rights groups who believe that human rights, you some are a political and above politics. hopefully all those people who work in the human rights. and you will understand today from the comments coming from washington,

that actually human right to something just to be leveraged, one way the other by the united states. as regards their power to be able to arguably oppress the entire global south. african, i've really got no time here, but i've got to squeeze out 30 seconds more if i can. as you mentioned earlier, the leader of the u. e was meeting with president putin in the venice at the north in saint petersburg to day. both sides seem to make clear that, that they want to stabilize the energy markets around the world. but we're seeing such open the geopolitical and g economic movement on the global chessboard these days with the bricks and the s c o and, you know, representing 75 percent of the world's working class. and the major energy holders as well. just quickly, you've got very little time here, but how would you sum up the geopolitical and you cannot make moves? we're seeing on the chessboard right now. well, i think max tree and column is michael hudson levey. mr. closing you spoken to him before attending the bus few days for ange, it's been very hard to imagine a complete realignment of the world economic system, but they are honestly,

thanks to jo bible, brussels nato, the urban union. they finally capitalize the conditions in which governments all over the world, including usual u. s. allies, saudi arabia, and a, that alone the global south. suddenly we like, we have to do something. we can't live in a world where the sanctions rule, the world economy. we have to start a new world and you will for benefits the vast majority of people, enough journalists option return. see always a pleasure to see you. thanks very much for your time and thank you for joining us as well. and while the you endeavors to rid itself of russian energy supplies, the book has been increasing its dependence on american shipments of liquefied natural gas, which johns france has pointed out, costs exponentially more than imports from nearby russia. difficulties in the conflict in ukraine must not end in the marquis economic domination and

a weakening of the you. we cannot accept that our american partner self, l. n, g for 4 times the price at which it sells it to its manufacturer suitable. it's apparently a time of reckoning across the eel, as there might be left out in the cold by the very same people who promised that everything would be okay. that americans, france, finance minister, bruno a mare, is just the latest european politician to point out the rural fact that washington is getting reach of europe's misery. this has been especially evident in germany, which has taken the brunt of the energy crisis in the last week along to top officials in burly and have lashed out at american allergy companies. some countries including friendly ones, sometimes achieve astronomical prices for their guess. of course that brings were the problems that we have to talk about the use contacted us when the oil prices shot up and the natural oil reserves in europe were tapped as a result, i think such solidarity would also be good for curbing gas prices. the numbers

match the accusations. let's just take one company of houston based she near energy, which made almost 750000000 in the 2nd quarter of this year. that's more than double the same period. last year. lost an estimated shipping price boy single cargo of u. s. l n g. so europe is about $1000000.00 a day. talk about decide to some. after all the u. s. secretary of state anthony blinking has promised that the blowing up of the north stream pipelines would be a tremendous opportunity for europe to break free from russia. but it increasingly looks like blinking could actually mean a tremendous opportunity for american energy companies. conversely, the e u foreign policy chief joseph brow admitted this week that europe's prosperity has been largely made possible by cheap russian energy. allah prosperity has been based on cheap energy coming from russia. on the other hand, we delegated, there was security to the you wish. we have to take

a bigger bar full of our responsibility on shooting security. you, us, they scale, lola, security, you china, russia provide the basis of all prosperity did is a will. that is no longer there isn't of mission that without russian gas, europe's prosperity might be at risk. burrell also criticized the u. s. federal reserve for leading a global policy that's caused interest rates to spike all over the world. everybody has to follow because otherwise their currency will be devalued. everybody is running to increase interest rates. this will bring us to a world recession. so again, just as the u. s. had led the charge urging europe to impose crippling sanctions that would barely back washington in the financial world to the u. s. leads the bryant, the you in the u. k. in say a recession because they have no other options. their currency would collapse, as the landscape becomes increasingly worse, and for the europeans,

they're taken to the streets to voice their concerns that as their energy bill since the summer have clearly shown what direction this has all been going in. but their political elliott's weren't paying attention focused on loan, bringing russia to it's near whatever the cost. and now it seems that brussels can finally see the riding on the wall. europe has set itself on the distractive political bath and the ally that promise to help it along the way is only benefiting from that. be again, reaction from economist and political commentator i could hammer, he says there's an old familiar game at play right now. the u. s is doing everything to keep europe dependent on them, to make the all game that the bricks have done before to keep this harmony on the continent to rule outside and to rule from the outside. but if you hear now mr. burrell and mrs. on the line,

she was on the table discussing and planning the controlled demolition of the european, especially the german economy on the divorce. pay with the ws ali gars and now coming along and say, oh we have to wear to change. this is a super credit. she is one of the main courses she went public and said, we want the distractions. we want the great reset, we want to bring your view. we don't want fossil fuels and so on. and so, so this is just people credit, but i think they now this is ending at the catastrophe and they're discussing their personal seat. well, the rush to replace russian energy supplies in europe with liquefied natural gas appears to be leaving, developing countries very short of fuel. some traders have even chosen to break contracts in order to cash in on european markets. now pakistan has suffered, in particular with a state run energy company failing to secure any supplies in recent tenders of back

in the spring, major suppliers said they were unable to ship a number of shares with cargoes as contracts. now a similar case involves the india's largest gas company, gail, it hasn't received its l. n g from a former subsidiary of russia's gas, proven singapore since may. the supply disruption happened after germany took control of the firm in the spring. as part of the mc russia sanctions, or the russia allowed shipments to the company for 3 more months. nothing ever made it all the way to india. and bangladesh was also found itself priced right out of the market. it's heavily dependent on imported gas, but just electricity generation. recently, 80 percent of the entire country suffered a total blackout due to a failure in the national power grid wall earlier in the program. my guest was an energy expert mohammed to mean. he believes countries deprived of a central fuel to now having no choice left, they have to return the dirt here. energy source. i think that the mon destruction

that has taken by right and all the net look people are looking for the next will have been bought. another who are thinking of long term game board are now wanting to some extent and will are doing that to under the current situation actually do, do and die. i mean, it is a matter of why. so that's why it is not best of the choice. what are we, you know, we didn't want to be contributing to that. we know gas emission, but we've got to be in the dark either because you know, right now the problem is in that situation it is not moving well. people are suffering. what activity has gone down. so what all of that is not a really good picture. we are, we are suffering so we have no choice right now. it's really good to have your

company today. a violence has broken out during protests in the capital of the caribbean island of haiti, with one post report shot dead by police and several more injured. i should warn you, you may find the following footage, disturbing. with the protest erupted after the un secretary general responded to a request from the government for a peacekeeping mission to be deployed to the country. demonstrate has went crazy, really demanding the government resigns, claiming it has no legitimacy to asper international intervention. protests 1st began in august over washing humanitarian crisis, inflation wealth, roughly 30 percent. that's all sabina,

a drastic rise in violent crime. and most recently, the issue is fuel shorted years, a certain explains the high emotions of the people that the editor of haiti, haiti, to birthday kim ives. he spoke to me earlier outlining why the locals are so hostile to any external players. intervening in that country. who has been using united nation so it's a proxy force since the korean war shortly after the of un was formed. but it really came to full fruition with 2 interventions that the u. s. made into haiti and 1991 in 2004. where it with us, assisted by canadian and french troops that went in to haiti and then passed it off to the un for 2 reasons. because they like the

look of an international force, but to pakistan is, and jordanians, and other 3rd world people that mostly populate those forces, work for half the cost of a us soldier. so it was also a cost savings for the maintenance of their empire. no legal basis, that's the response from hong kong leader to washington's demand, to act over a russian oligarchy. yard that is more there. the chinese politician says the territory won't undertake any actions over sanctions that are only imposed unilaterally on calling with already have been criticized for allowing the yacht to drop in the cities waters. washington claims china's helping the businessman to evade its restrictions. hong kong leader who is actually currently under us sanctions himself, they'll only abide by restrictions imposed by the united nations or the yachts ali

galico, and it was sanctioned for his close ties to the russian president meeting. he is excluded from us financial systems. his assets are frozen while any overseas properties and including yachts, while they can be seized. international and independent china specialist, a andrew lung, branded the u. s. policy, as he sees it. as financial bullying, washington has been exercising, doing financial fully in all all over the world is imposing sanctions on countries imposing sanctions on on, on trying to relax without. ready loss. busy what i'm trying to say. ready the reality remains at that phone call causes financial international finances, which us dollar is imbedded at that empower united states to hurt on call. he wants to. but on the other hand, hong kong part of charter school to make is a. ready b l. busy sanctions,

which old lives by the united nations. and of course, china is population. and hands on call has a bind by any sanctions authorized by the united nations. but these are all on sanctions. you will actually impose body united states on russian yachts and is not supported or has not been supported part of the about the nation. well, we really appreciate you joining us here in a very busy tuesday at all the international. it's always good to have your company a lot of the. busy story to being updated as we speak. you can get your updates either via the dot com or check out on these numerous telegrams in a.
