ah ah, russian president vladimir putin se countries in the post sylvie at c, i s the alliance are working on switching to transactions in their own national currencies and a move away from u. s. dollar dominant. meanwhile, and a blow for washington, saudi arabia, red jack americas push for opec plus to delay its boil. i'd put cuts until after the critical midterm elections next month. burkina faso is set to a line for a new leader and made an enduring protest against french government influence in the western african nation. we hear from those taken to history and francis the cause of all our misfortunes. yet because the scenes of destruction are clearly

a signal that people are mad at you with coming live from moscow, this is our t. my name's unit o'neill. on 30 minutes of news. and views start now are top story today. president vladimir putin say russia and it's partner countries and the post silva, c i s alliance are working on switching to international transactions in their own national currencies, freeing themselves. he saves from reliance on the u. s. dollar. at president putin made those comments at a summit in the capitol, a stella, a joint activities on import substitution, strengthening of technological and financial sovereignty had been intensified. in particular, active efforts are being made to make settlements between the countries of the commonwealth in our own national currencies. well,

these images show the leaders of the commonwealth of independent states, a geopolitical grouping of former soviet countries, united by their traditionally and generally warm historic ties at turkish liter ridge of type, or the one who was also in a stomach spoke with mr. brewton about possibly building a new pipeline. the project envisions turkey as a primary gas transport hub for both europe and asia or my colleague, rory sou shade, discuss the meeting between the 2 presidents with the host of our team of worlds apart. program in turkey, responded positively. to this proposal and the teams from both sides are looking very deliberately and very urgent feel. just something like this. now we haven't heard any confirmation from the turkish side yet. apart from saying that, you know, we present on received these offer with big interest. but i think this is something that would flatter turkey

a great deal because it offers it then opportunity to raise, extending internationally and economically. and this is something that president or the one has been after for many, many years. it would be russian energy going to turkey, and it's up to turkey, essentially where it goes from there. and could it be the same idea or on that russian energy goes to toki, then toki cells that to europe, and it's still russian energy going to, you know, this is exactly what the russia proposes. and i think it's, i cannot say that it's a risk free proposition because as you know, before russia was selling gas, you're buying ukraine. and even before the recent confrontation, you know, 1015 years ago there were constant delegations of russia using its allergy as, as a weapon. and selling your energy is through an intermediary, comes with it with certain risks. but apparently, the turkish russian relationship are good enough for put into trust or the on the now from that,

and i think what the russian ones at this point is deliver its energy somewhere and then leave it up to turkey or 3rd, countries to decide if they won that russian affordable russian gas provides very important basis for many countries. it's used to provide very important foundation for european economy. i mean, it's the basis for you repeat prosperity, and this is something that you're no longer supposedly. one turkish example demonstrates that within a couple of years that could give a country a tremendous benefits, tremendous economic benefits. and russian is doing that know the out of the goodness of it's hard. it's also beneficial deal for, for russia. but you know, what it wants it is to have a levels equal, equal based partnership care. some updates to tell you about in the program, russian, prosecutors are compiling, preliminary reports on casualties, the injured after ukrainian troops. sheldon munitions deco in the belgrade region

on friday morning. ukrainian attacks. i've had the region several days now in a row on thursday intensive shelling by key of forces left part of a local town in flames. thank you. it was the 4th such attack in the area over a 24 hour period. then came just after a residential high rise in the center of belgrade became a target for cubes, troops. several cars and an apartment were severely damaged in the show to another headline stories today, saudi arabia has openly and publicly resisted american pressure to enact a one month delay to the recent opec plus decision to slush oil production by 2000000 bar of a day. the request by the biden administration would have seen the cut postpone until after the u. s. mid term elections. riyadh explained why it rejected the call

. the government of the kingdom clarify for its continuous consultation with the u . s. administration. that all economic analyses indicate that postponing the opec plus decision for a month, according to what has been suggested, would have had negative economic consequences. this is a pretty big revelation. they're letting a pretty big cat out of the bag that it seems that the priority of us leaders, when it came to asking opec to move ahead with their decisions. and they asked to delay it for one month because they were concerned about us election results. that a clear it appears the november 8 mid term elections that are set to take place here in the united states with a new congress will be elected members. the house of representatives, numbers the u. s. senate will be elected or reelected. i at that seems to be what the issue was now. the democrats are furious with saudi arabia. there's that all this talk of calling the 70 year relationship between the usa and saudi arabian question here. some of what democratic party leaders have said in light of the

saudi is refusing to play ball with the united states. there's going to be some consequences from what they've done with russia. suspend all arm sales. is that something you'd consider? i'm not going to get into what i've consider and what i'm have in mind, but there will be, there will be consequences. i do see it as a deliberately hostile actin and what, why would we have troops defending a country that, that behaves the sway towards us for years. we have looked the other way. as saudi arabia has exits, shopped up journalists, it has engaged in massive political repression. for one reason, we wanted to know that when the chips were down, when there was a global crisis, that the saudis would choose us instead of russia, when they didn't, usa continues to supply saudi arabia with weapons. there's the ongoing war in yemen . and there's some democrats that now feel like they want to, they want to cut off the supply weapons. they want all us troops that are in strategic areas, supporting saudi arabia to be removed. and here's the no pack bill. this is

a law that would enable people and entities in the united states to file lawsuits and take countries to court for violating and manipulating the oil. right. ready the negative effect in the united states is quite dramatic. now, the saudi foreign minister expect this will all blow over after the big elections are over. unfortunately, when you're in the election season with some people called the funny season, a lot of things are said and lots of things are done that may be, may not make sense at another period of time. and i hope that this is what we're dealing with here. it appears that the democratic party leadership was concerned about how the gas prices effect the election. and they wanted the saudis to put off their decision to cut oil production until after the elections because of how it would affect the gas prices. they don't seem to be concerned about the fact that americans are paying $3.00 to $6.00 per gallon of gas that families are being squeezed. they're not concerned about european allies of the united states

breathing in the winter. they're concerned that all of these economic consequences, they could affect the election result. they could change how people go ahead, devote a real amount as soon as it is revealed on the part of us leaders. they essentially wanted saudi arabia to play ball with them and make decisions that would have political benefit for them in the short term when it came to how americans vote on november 8th. when we got some reaction to this from our been involved, robbins, the vice chair of the us libertarian national committee. and he is of the view that the obvious way to get out of the crisis is the lift sanctions from russian energy export. they're trying to adjust oil prices basically around an election rather than doing either the short term or long term doing the long term changes or investments that would lead to this. i mean, here's the simple example. the obvious solution to our oil shortage is to get rid of all thanks and that stop american businesses and individuals from importing oil

. whether an american company wants to buy oil from russia or. busy venezuela or on or anywhere else, that's their natural rates. the government should not determine where somebody can buy oil from. so rather than doing the thing that's right and ethical and make sense, they're trying again to you shady backroom dealing as their one solution to all problem. when you create foreign animosity, that's only going to benefit the people who benefit from conflict at the people who benefit from war. unfortunately, united states that is the entire military industrial complex, which is the single most influential and sadly, the most toxic organization that existing in american politics. so you have defend contractors and those that other other contractors that benefit from war. they are, of course, happy to see as much conflict as possible. the problem that everyone else in america benefits from peace. and so the correct solution is the end, the sanction and all sanctions on oil and everything else. allow americans to

freely trade with any individual. with whom they choose i mean growing concerns over reduced gas supplies in the us following the attacks on the north stream pipeline. germany's most read newspaper build safe. it's russia, that's responsible for the people of europe feeling that shell ortiz, donal quarter picks up the story. these days the european union seems determined to dump anything and everything russian, especially gas and yet, spain, as a rare exception, increasing russian gas imports by over 150 per cent in just one year. after all, it's madrid's choice and moscow was more than willing to fill the demand. look at us mitchells was you. i've already emphasized this numerous times that the nord stream pipelines are not politicized in any way. you've been russia spans ready to enable the flow of gas supplies to europe. the ball is in the use court that if they want gas, let him just opened the taps rushes even offered to pump gas through the nord

stream to channel that still functioning after last month's pipeline explosions. berlin however, has rejected that offer and german gas prices continue their upward climb. at the same time it looks like the german media outlet build is more concerned with how ukrainians are going to fair during the winter. it's accusing putin of trying to freeze them all to death, pointing to recent russian missile strikes that severely damaged. ukraine's electrical grid build even compared the situation to the world war, 2 battle of stalin. god, how prudent wants to freeze ukraine. since monday, putin has attacked power plants all over ukraine, causing power outages, as temperatures and keep in other places, dropped down to 3 degrees celsius at night. experts are certain with the attacks on civilians who wants to freeze the war before winter. what we see is the strategy to achieve a rush and dictated peace and to avoid another winter war. east european researcher, andreas someone told billed this is how stalingrad became

a death trap. the battle for the industrial centre of stalingrad in the winter of 1940 to 1943 is considered by historians to be the turning point of the 2nd world war in favor of the soviet union. because despite high last is the red army managed to encircle the soldiers of hitler's bear marked at temperatures as low as minus 30 degrees celsius. tens of thousands soldiers either froze or starved to death. probably not the best decision to indirectly compare your allies to the nazis, especially when many of them actually are. and they're trying to keep that on the down low for p r sake. but the builds credit. russia says it's indeed fighting neo nazis as it fought their predecessors back in the 2nd world war. and like back then, the question of how winter will play out is more than relevant the head of gas problems already warned against playing with fire here. or in this case, playing with the cold way at the moment there is a much more serious part of the question referring to the passage of the heart of

winters. but the passage of the winter peak, you know, the overall winter might be relatively warm one week or even 5 days can be abnormally cold. and you know, even in this short period of time, god forbid you can freeze entire cities and tire lands. true around 80 years ago, many europeans froze to death, installing god, and as the threat of a frosty doom once again rears its head for their grandchildren, rushes, catching all the blame for them, and now felt in was all. isn't it a familiar situation? $942.00. now it's 2020 to 80 years ago there was the battle of stolen grad and history is repeating itself. we are cold and it's the russian's fault again. but this time we are smarter. he's my why go to russia when we can freeze at home, darling god, my god, y'all joy all except the people who died fighting the soviets in world war 2 parish trying to wage a war of an elation. as for the current crisis, moscow says it's ready to supply europe with the gas it needs to heat its homes.

and yet the offer is rejected. hard to imagine how russia is at fault in either situation. so there is a population in europe lives as it was in the middle ages. they've begun to stockpile fire for the winter. guess what does this have to do with russia? they constantly try to blame their own mistakes on some one else. in this case, russia, i want to emphasize that this is their own fault. them switching is perhaps the main thing we should remember though, when considering build stalin broad comparison is who was on the winning side. last time we heard from gilbert doctrine independent, political analyst based in brussels. he believes europe has been left on the losing side of an economic power play orchestrated by the us. built as an example of this type of full time propaganda, which bears no resemblance to journalism. the russians are not trying to freeze out your europe is using it so i don't see the public as being very engaged unless

we're still waiting for the prison. they are very concerned not to prison, they're very concerned about the cost. assuming that there will be full supply of gas heating and like tricity this winter, the prices are sort of it in europe is a big time loser and everything is going on. the fans have been cowed into submission. they know full well that their defense capabilities against 2, against a major global power like russia are nil. without the united states depressants, united states has used leverage that knowledge, that awareness of european weakness and inability in the face of the rather frightening complex going on on the eastern border of europe to it's a benefit to its advantage. burkina faso is set to an into

new interim president in the coming days. the country's national assembly kicked off this friday, coming after the west african nation, recently injured its 2nd military crew of the year. and military were throw led by captain abraham tribal re seized power in the country. 2 weeks ago, demonstrators rallied in the streets and supports marching with banners and flags, including as you can see, russian and chinese ones too. they're demanding. why could to goose ties with friends per kino fast? so the former colonial ruler because protesters say the previous leader, how to engage in secret pacts with chorus or bridge residents attack, the french embassy, smashing windows and setting myers run the different loving company. while the french institute, one of the main cultural centers in the country was set a blade, protesters vandalized the buildings library, another common areas institute workers condemned the destruction. but protestors

said why they engaged in the finance manager gave women how i thought of when you are losing soldiers every day and civilians have to leave their villages. i think it's normal that some day people express their disappointment and anger. the scenes of destruction are clearly a signal that people are mad at you because we do not know what france is doing here in burkina. if you're in a country and nobody knows your role better, you leave. of course, we, francis, the cause of all our misfortunes, frances, responsible for all these crazy things in africa. we are here to fight until our last breath. the media center, one of the main library of what i do, the last sample of the co voice in between paris and what got to go 62 years back was decided to create the international festival of movies, of what it was here in this laboratory. last october, the 1st people went out and everything because that my situation,

my friends promised to end the war and for 11 years now, things i know chasing menu authorities of looking up i saw captain tower. you brought him decided not to close the corporation with only one country. they're going to work with anyone who can help including washer, to kish and frank. but people might want to go fast and the one cup to tell want to go fast as he can to move forward. and with this war, as he is busy now, to set up as a tional organization, have people involved with the national foundation starting this friday. this policy will decide who are going to be the next president. it will decide also what going to be the duration of the parliament was going to be the size of a government. the size of parliament was there li will be what get to europe would rather blame others for its fail policies in africa rather than accept

its own flaws. not opinion was expressed in an article by an associate fellow at the horn, international institute for strategic studies, who say relations with the west tub never been beneficial for the constant. we spoke to the man himself, mccore him in any the interactions between the west's and africa generally have been destructive, who has been on pollard emissions ship, where the west dictates and forces african peoples in countries to do things according to the interests of the west. some s tend toward the understandable good, the out the are looking up to the own interests and the early on it was a nazi one who must have african interest. the challenge is many for the african said to mccafferty tools in sure that that relationship is mutually beneficial. at present, it is not the responsibility to protect is essentially

a weapon of the be power to do of the west to invade little countries in the name of siblings and lakes. when they did it, we saw the destroy libya completely. some of the challenges are raising in europe can be connected to the atrocities louis commute in africa and impression was created. that's europe was heaven on earth. as a result, you have all these people who have been told and convinced that the hell so they need to go to heaven and heaven is europe. so when they go to heaven, they find a good squint. unless you have this migration chris is europe. and you have the raise of these so called populace nationalists working power gradually

by insisting that all want to see migrant mini black people with it's always ready blue mothers. but taking responsibility to know, louis does not do that. it is very good at inflicting pain on us. ah, but when you choose us, cause you know what's happening with friends, excuses will not again, ah, no. the economic war fir school in paris founded by a former french intelligence officer, has posed the question, who is the real enemy of france? the institute argues that the u. s. a traditional french ally has been undermining frances interests by continuously fueling foreign conflicts. years policy based r t come to be to rachel marston with her take on the issue. are the u. s. and its allies enemies of france. a new video released by the french school of economic

warfare to promote its annual research publication related to what it calls, quote the shadow wars that endanger our economy. strongly suggest scott's the case . it places frances rivalry with washington right alongside those with china and russia, which no doubt comes as a shock to a lot of westerners. it didn't spare germany either evoking berlin's push for an u. y green economy that ultimately harmed the french nuclear power industry. and its energy independence just have a look at this video ah, with ah ah,

ah, in, so you see there a reminder that when the us formed a new coalition with australia and the u. k. last year, the always dropped to the estimated $66000000000.00 deal for france to build its new summaries. we also see in the video a reference to the sale of francis nuclear know how to the americans when general electric bought asked him, which is a major case study at this school that released this video in this book. so what is the school exactly? all it's a private post graduate school in paris founded by the former head of the french army intelligence training center and the head of competitive intelligence. for default schools say as on astronaut, which is the partly state owned entity that exports, french knowledge and technical training world. wide mainly to buyers french weapons . so the schools found in 1997 in the wake of

a particularly shocking episode of cia economic spine. for c i, a officers were expelled from france in early 1995 after being caught specifically spying on french industry. in a botched operation, forcing the agency to suspend all of its operations across the country. remember that france at the time had been doing a lot of really innovative stuff when it became clear to the french that president bill clinton at the time, had made economic espionage a priority for the cia. the french government realised that there was a need for them to do pretty much the same kind of thing. and this school evolves in that context. before the cia spike case, the french had this image of enemy spies being russian caricatures out of old war films. basically, after the incident, they realized that just as likely to be the tall, attractive, outgoing, chatty american women in the country under they tag or business cover, which is exactly what the case was with this botched cia op and the erosion of

french industries since, well, it's just continued and worse and even with the complicity of french officials, despite them full well knowing better, which this video clearly points out of moscow continues to cooperate with partners on the world stage from asia to the americas. some prefer to ignore thought. so save russia's foreign ministry spokesman, who's the nod ukrainian president zalinski rhetoric? referring to his statement that quote, no normal leader wants to cooperate with the country. much would you most thoughtless? as of today, they have a status of an isolated country, a country that no normal civilized leader wants to communicate with what. this is walked neo nancy logic means he doesn't think on the body outside of nature is normal for the landscape. the whole world means the west. there is no one else. he doesn't even notice how the subconscious feeling of superiority over those

different from white people shows up in his comatose interviews. at the same time, ukraine foreign minister spoke about some african nations holding a strong pro russian or neutral stamps in the conflicts. he made a series of comments to russian pranksters after his trip to the continent and persuading nations there to turn against moscow. editor of the behind the news site, joe milan guess, sees many african support russia this by the ukranian normative the civilized countries. it's according to youth views of ways dandy the countries that the countries that are giving a money that are giving him arms. basically, he's doing what the western mainstream media is doing or polluting the mind of what matters to the world to believe that russia and it's a great country. meanwhile, in africa with what russia. because we understand what did happen and russia,

it's in judgment with africa, russia. it's an engagement with, in the south american countries, russia, it's in a full seeing with negotiations with ethan countries. so it's not correct what to say. it's entirely not quite right. it's just as a him trying to push the propaganda up to say everyone mustang against russia. it's not in time to quote it ok, before we go, i want to bring you some peculiar comments. i think it's best to describe them from the used top diplomat. you separate in calling from more engagement with the rest of the world. also describe the need to protect what he called the e u garden, from those quote in the jungle, he was sharing his candid thoughts are the talk in belgium to future european diplomats. youtube is a garden. we have built a garden avenue. she works is the best combination of our political freedom,

economic prosperity, and social cohesion. that the human kind has been able to build those 3 things together. the rest of the world must of the rest of the goal. it's a jungle and the jungle could invade the garden and the gardeners should they gave it when the typical air western european is ann marie system. ok if i me see because it's quite. ready places to say that you wrote is a garden that is so beautiful and the rest of the world is a jolly should be returning to learning it by cato. minimize the very end of the stability that they want to to see in the world is his vision. was suspect that this was particularly directed advise. yeah. because that is the only

in, in, in more china that can really destabilize the peace and stability or bad god in that of the say they'll create a, one of the things that the least throw in a lot of or has enough rico or the fact that we are referred to as the john and predominantly, we know that the you, you nation responsible for this jungle that they're thinking about. because they make sure that our people are under the law for a long time and, and do to be less dependent on them for a lot of things that are primary or secondary. and they come in milk on every day in the lives, in donald at b c, and degrade the garden. that is the call in europe in the colonial copy. does that are they are i for up to the minute developments, quite a.
