successful very katy killed time to sit down and talk with african countries. going right to pro choice am to monitor the elimination of western interference in the continents. we condemn pressure on it. okay. by the west in the united states, i want to call on them to take their hands off the the opiates, with which they are terrorized in our country. masika walsh, keith may use a dirty bomb enough for flag operation and some western politicians alleged nato is capable of using an atomic weapon because globalized. the conflict and authority, se ukrainian fault is far at least 30 artillery shells at the city of and our home

to europe largest nuclear power plant, the barrage his hotel where russian nuclear energy workers thing with hello and welcome to the international broke off in life from us just past the hour, i'm glad you could join us. i'm rather mommy. let's take a look at today's top stories in somalia, terrorist open fire on a hotel in the set of cob, claiming the lives of 9 civilians and wounding 47. security. both is killed. the fact is, but the situation is still unstable. according to recent pentagon reports, africa has seen a 300 percent increase in medicine attacks over the past decade. that despite the u . s. military presence on the ground meant to fight terrorism. meanwhile,

africa has seen protests grow over longstanding western interference. r t correspondent, kind of beula sattler has the story. there's an air of change blowing through africa and one that is increasingly resistant to the power and influence of the west image yoga this weekend. over a $100000.00 people marched in support of the country's defense force, demanding an end to the interference by the west in ethiopia in affairs. iowa. as you can see, there are lots of residents of the city you came not to condemn. the western countries lead by the united states who interfere in our affairs are sovereignty and unity. they want to dismantle us. i came to condemned that we are saying star. as you want, i that i live enough is enough. we shall not accept any interference. resale parents don't want anybody's assistance work on our own and bring change to ourselves. our now we condemn the indirect pressure on ethiopia by the west and the

united states. i want to call on them to take their hands off ethiopia, with which they are terrorizing our country. i want to tell them we are capable of solving our own problems by ourselves. in the eastern and central parts of the african continent, the old god is being challenged. shed is, but one example says it's independence in 1960, from france, whose an army generals have ruled on bus lanes of land. and they were supported by the former colonizer 30, was supposed to mark a day of transition from military to civilian rule. instead, pools of smokes billowed from the city capital and jemina, as well as other areas. as champions of all walks joined, hands, tired of waiting to demand an end to military rule of the transitional military council,

and also the end of francis interference. the security forces response was brutal ah, ah, with regard to your own as you did with until the day that he died on the front lines in april 2021 general. that is, the b was francis man, paris, supported and protected him against attempted coups and also turned

a blind eye to his brutal 3 decade long rule. in turn, the b protected francis interests in the region. both military and economic. france even supported the transitional military council that was formed after the bees death, which is now headed by debbie sun, mama de b. he without an election installed himself as leader and even pushed back of the transition date by a further 2 years. a move that angered the people you see in a francis good, that frances withdrawing its military presence in the region because france is always at the side of the leaders, keeping them in power. we saw that france has done nothing about what's happening here. on the internet, on the radio person macro said that france has no connection with what's happening because it's an internal affair of chad. but i think that's not true as it was. france that help mohammed debbie to take power. we know that all the decisions come

from france. france is also implicated in another vial and toward sport. of the weeks of cooling off violence classes between the democratic republic of congo was military and the m 23 levels has risen again. the d. r. c and rwanda have had strained relations since the 1994 genocide, which saw squaws of people cross the border into the d r. c. all the while the french government was supplying weapons to the region. in such countries, genocide is not too important. and just to round off the wave of negative sentiments to what's the west africa, a major wisdom power says that africans must be prepared to die for their democracy . democracy can only be defended by people themselves if they're actually prepared to die for their democracy. liberal a day,

a good day flip any day is part of french, national heritage and immortal the country is proud to ascribe to. but here in africa, both the action and in action of france stand against those very same values. and for a growing number of former colonies and african states of war, philosophy seems a more appropriate phrase cannibal is ada. for oddity in johannesburg was in defense minister. so gay shirley, who has warned that he may use a dirty bomb and a false flag operation to draw other countries into the conflict. he held a series of phone calls on sunday with his counterparts from the u. s. u. k. france . and so here on the issue, some western politicians have downplayed russian concerns. and instead of hughes, moscow of escalating the rhetoric regarding nuclear weapons. however,

not all share such a view and have suggested that the u. s. and native actions are part of the problem . the very likely american sabotage of the nord stream gas pipelines has shown what nato is capable of. let's be wary. they are capable of the worst up to and including the false flag use of an atomic weapon to globalize the conflict. nicholas saw cozy fossils. former president has joined of the state lawmakers in rejecting the western interpretation of the conflict and ukraine. he question why the euro commission is responding to the conflict in a matter that is beyond its expertise, which promotes a military solution alone. while the former leader says this will only result in will feet tardies. but while noise into the chief says russia was little interest in the wolf spreading. and moscow is far more rational than how it's portrayed.

we perceive russia as a rational actor. we must remember that russia has a different historical understanding and a different world view. the world looks completely different from the kremlin than from norway. to get more on the issue, he spoke with glen d, son, a political scientist and professor and re metal roof. first, vice president of the alternative for germany policy in bavaria. people are not allowed to suggest to sit down with russia and, and suggest that we have their work at a peace agreement. because at the moment anyone who suggests this say all that. so i put in one's which means to either you support the war or you are rushing up again this the thing, it's a big shame that there's no limitations out there with enough courage to say that this is, this is gone way too far. and we, we should sit down and find the peace agreement. wonderful. have to agree with

russia in nation in ukraine won't care pulses, but one can still admit that need to have provoked care and contributed to this conflict. and it's both in our interest and our responsibility to sit down with russia and try to work out an agreement. instead of seeing more and more people die on the battlefield. the question is, what will be the price for the ukranian people to pay as a war goes on and on. and it's even extended in terms of nuclear weapons. and if it is extended time wise, if it is extended all to other neighboring countries involving then also the european forces and ne, 2 at large. i fear there is symmetry of in the calculation of costs and benefits. also the prolongation of the war. and obviously the

ukraine is losing from the 1st hour, but also germany and other parts of europe are losing, dropping further into recession that the conflict goes on there. so also the more of sanctions goes on and the united states are benefiting ah, according to the russian defense ministry. ukraine is preparing a provocation. i will target is own citizens in the bid to dis, credit the russian army. it said that foreign mercenaries will attack civilians are monday through the distribution of humanitarian aid. in the harkell region of the ukraine forces on sunday, launching artillery barrage act of the russian city of and got our way. europe's largest nuclear power plant is located. one of the objects hit was a hotel where employees of russia,

state atomic energy company have been staying ortiz roman casa rev, gave us this report about the attack. the city of america dar is indeed a home to europe's largest nuclear power plant. and it's been under constant at sack, by ukrainian military since the start of the special military operation by a russia it's now partially operational. it's not in full operation at the moment. however, attacks against the city and the nuclear power plant continue every single day. now on a sunday, ukraine had also were targeted civilians in the city of and our good door. according to a local officials, a hotel was frog as at least 3 shells. i hit the hotel which is which houses are russian, the employees of the russian atomic, an agency or so far, we do know that no one was hurt during that attack. however,

an official from the russian atomic agency who is there at the moment i said that he and the employees of the company were the target of this attack. now the russians are, of course, there at the nuclear power plant to ensure the safety of its operations. but if the nuclear power plant is struck by ukraine, it will certainly translate into a huge tragedy in the region. so very info, certain us to do the mask and as outskirts have been under attack by ukrainian forces, reportedly using french weapons. they had residential areas in a school in the vicinity. and the city of has on authorities say at least one civilian was killed and 3 will wounded. and the terror attacks on sunday as an improvised explosive device placed on a street pole detonated as a vehicle passed by. the blast shattered windows in nearby residential buildings.

this incident comes off the has on authorities announced the closure of an entry point into the front line region. earlier this week, the aim has been said to prevent civilians from traveling to areas most at risk from ukrainian effects. civilians in the region are being moved to safe ground. this footage shows people coming up to board a fairy ethan local port. these events come amid warnings from the russian ministry of defense and local officials. that's key forces are set to be planning to launch a major offensive in the area as a result of the security concerns russian president by them and put in this week depend, martial law in has on and 3 other territories, but recently voted to joint russia. russia president, whether it puts in is expected to give a speech at the annual meeting of the valve. i discussion club. the 4 day event

starts monday in the nation's capital. more than 100 participants from 41 different countries will attend. this is meeting in master justice as security for everyone in that post head demonic world is the headline topic on the delegates agenda. to get more on this upcoming year unless 1st live now to ortiz oaks and a boy cooks are and thanks for joining us now. big day as we approach the opening of the event, one of the main issues we expect to be addressed. well, you mentioned some of them are the way the world is going to function in the post head to morning era. i know that's quite a mouthful. it's a very heavy geopolitical language, but essentially what the delegates of they've all die for them i'm proposing is that the year of 2022 is

a know the board of the year for essentially the changing world order. this is something that many political scientists have been talking about for years, but this is the year when all of that has finally come into practice. and much of that thanks to the role of the had him on itself. by that i mean, the united states and some of its allies and the introduction of major sanctions against russia, which were intended to penalize and russia and change his behavior. but they and what they did is to have massive impact on the world which led many of the countries question the way the world has been governed up till now. and this is the main theme for many of the panel discussions that are going to take place today and over the next couple of days. how the countries can trade with each other and deal with each other in

a more balanced and fair way. how many of the inequalities that the world faces today could be addressed for the benefit of all how values and various developmental paths could be respected rather than trying to get everyone subscribe to one single path that's beneficial for a group of countries, but let leaves others at the detriment. so there are many, many discussions. but what's interesting about this forum is that it's, it's actually one of the, a rare platforms in the world today where, where those issues can be discussed not for propagandistic purposes, to create a narrative, but actually to look at possible solution to look at possible ways. house the world could be shaped excess sounds. i was going to be a good meeting or some of these wesson country they were invited as opposed to this val die club to, to have a discussion but they didn't attend. will their voices be missed?

so do you think they'll make their statements through western media? well, it's not a country participation. usually the way it's dominant analyst, permanent thinkers are being invited and they're invited again to share that honest views. and you're right that these time, this year, the participation of western analyst is limited, although there are some brave people here in the attendance. and one of the reasons for that is the severe reputational consequences and academic consequences that some of the western thinkers can face for being in any way, shape or form associated with russia. even though it being present at these platform does know the oblige. anyone to agree with the actions of the russian government. and i think some of the analysts who western analysts, who will be here, will also be critical of the way russia is conducting its policy. but there will be

missed that positions well known. but i think our absence or the, the shortage of western voices is amply compensated by the very wide presence from the rest of the world, from india, from pakistan from china, from latin america, from africa. and i think that's also very characteristic and very symbolic of the changes that are happening in the world today. there is no need to subscribe to one single point of view and all these experts at eventually coming together here, again, not to impose that position on one another, but try to engage in a proper analytic exercise. and what's interesting about all day is that some of the sessions are open for the media, but many of them are closed and that allows participants to be authentic, to be fully honest with one another. for example, later on today i sort of gave love roll fresh and foreign minister will meet with

all these participants. and it will be behind closed doors and it will be a chance for them to not only get his opinion official position, but also to try to understand i'm sort of bad ground factors that are common to russians decision. and you know, it's ultimately up to you, i could demick and political scientists to decide whether they wanna take a veil of dog or not. i think this is actually, you know, for anyone who is involved in an analysis that's a valuable opportunity. and if some of the western, i think are decided to pass, let it pass that's on them. no, absolutely, absolutely. okay. thanks so much for joining us right now. hey, live in the studio now. we'll find out more, no doubt, throughout the day. thanks again for your time. we'll speak again soon. right. we spoke with a wild eyed club, excellent, and vice chairman of the shanghai center of international studies. now someone who

says the west needs to accept the realities of a new world. the world is absolutely changing and it's changing very falls to perhaps even faster than most people have expected. but a multi polar, it is definitely on its way, the multi polarity and it's bound to happen, i think. and i hope cecilio that our friends and colleagues in the west will face the reality. and we're understand that. and it won't. leaders must sit together and to come to a consensus and a compromise. china has taken a different route in terms of its global expansion. and i think the west is being taken by shock. it's not like how they look at the world because china has a different way of looking at the world. and you have to face the reality that

people are facing a different country coming all to the world stage. china has never colonized any country and it doesn't have that kind of history. so the globalization process that, as china has seen it was the belgium road initiative is to expand its economic growth globally by helping those countries that needs the great news out of the year. he has inflation has hit a record high, not seen since 1982, putting pressure on the federal reserve to raise interest rates by 75 basis points, which is due to hit americans even more in their wallets. soaring energy prices and higher cost of living continue this why this is sales house week? the nancy pelosi seemed tired of hearing about the worries of domestic inflation.

when i hear people talk about inflation as i heard in there, we had to change that subject. inflation is a global phenomena phenomenon. you the european union, u. k. the british have higher inflation rate than we do here. it's not the fight is not a bad inflation. it's about the cost of living. prices are increasing faster than salaries, but brand called inflation is only half the problem. report say the personal savings rate in the u. s. has dropped by 15 percent over the last year. we heard from some americans have told us how that day the lives are affected by the untenable rising cost of living are having the savings in our retirement money now. and i just don't know how these people, you know, without any segments, are gonna be able to afford all of them being the way things are going right now with $4.00

a gallon of gasoline. obviously we all work in just to survive. right now. i'm in my 41 k and my savings, which i'm not happy with. that's how bad the economy really is. when people have to start using for one k savings and all the economy, it could be a lot better than what it is now, because these are terrible in place to serve as 3 acres. felicia gas, but our government won't let us have it. who's in office right now, rob? it'll most because cold washington post journalists, quote hippocrates as he responded to harsh criticism from the news outlet reporting on him. this reaction comes as the media outlets, really several articles, i think anonymous top government officials who is said to believe that the

billionaire has become quote, too powerful and increasingly reckless as he proposes piece in ukraine, add a solution in tie. one is where he is that his business interests are influencing his views. what's more, must plans to revamp twitter rules to be more objective. i've earned him a security risk label because musk has business investments in china and according to russian and other news reports said last year at a kremlin sponsored event for students that he was planning on in russia. several top us government officials wonder if masks business interests affect his views on foreign affairs. earlier the world riches van calls a wave of online hysteria when he shed opinions on how to solve the quinn in crisis . he proposed to recognize crimea as russia and ensure

a neutral status for ukraine. as the outline piece, he earned scrutiny from us authorities. earlier we spoke to political commentator avenue radio, steve gill, who pondered the reasons why the washington post is concerned with musk, but not so much with some of the scandals. i find it interesting that a piece proposal trying to find a, a conciliatory end to the conflict and ukraine is so controversial. i think it's the mainstream media here in the u. s. and globally, we're really wanting to down play the effect of the law bust. they would ignore him, but whenever he sends out a tweet, whatever he make, some comments, they hyperventilate, they pay a lot of attention to what he said. they amplify what he says. and they're the ones, frankly, giving him more political influence than if they would just ignore it. i don't think there's any question again, the washington post has not been concerned with the biden family 100 by jo,

by apparently we're getting a lot of money from china, from ukraine. they're not concerned about that, but they're concerned about the influence that you are boss who operates transparently in the business arena. may have more influence than they would likely they're not concerned about its influence. they're just concerned that its influence contradicts what they want. and again, i think the hypocrisy of the washington post the new york times on, on what causes them outrage depends on who agrees with them and who doesn't agree with them. and, and that was a far cry from journalism being fair telling both sides of the story. but they've completely abandoned that. well, that wraps up my timely he up next week to live alone. cool, silken union o'neill will be in the news in the top of the hour. i'm a run. hm ami wishing all of this thing with i look forward to talking to you all. that technology should work for people.

a robot must obey the orders given by human beings, except where such order is a conflict with the 1st law show your identification. we should be very careful about artificial intelligence. and the point obviously is to race trust rather than a various job with artificial intelligence. real summoning with a robot must protect its own existence with oh, when i went to the wrong one, i just don't know. i mean you have to figure out the same becomes the advocate an engagement. it was betrayal. when so

many find themselves worlds, a born we choose to look for common ground. ah, ah, ah hello and welcome to cross stock were all things are considered. i'm peter lavelle. the conflict in ukraine is not only about which side will eventually prevail, the stakes are much higher. the outcome of this conflict will determine the nature of a new geopolitical order. the west is fighting russia to maintain its global hegemony . much of the world would like to see this come to an end.

ah . to discuss these issues and more on joined by my guest here in moscow. glenn decent. he is a professor at the university of south eastern norway as well as author of the book, rissa, phobia, propaganda, and international politics. and we have maxine switch golf. he is the director of the center for advanced american studies at moscow state institute of international relations. are a joan in cross back roles and the fact that means he can jump any time you want. and i always appreciated trying to start with glen here. glenn. i just jot down a number of countries here. saudi arabia, turkey, the united arab emirates, india, south africa. now throw in opec plus, i'm not too long ago, these were considered, you know, if not, um, staunch american eyes, very supportive of the west. and these are significant.
