9:01 am
genetically modified crofts despite actually endorsing the very plan in the past with tuesday, november the 1st and moments after 4 pm here at moscow from the entire news team here at doughty international, it's so good to have you with us. the russian ministry of defense has just reported that the command and control center for ukraine's military had been significantly disrupted as a result of stripes on monday or the attack. so targeted a control hubs. communication under energy infrastructure. in addition, the management of ukraine's armed forces under railway logistic support that's also being disrupted. or this also coming from that of the russian ministry of defense. now the russian president, vladimir putin has clarified that the country is not quitting the black sea grain deal, but only suspending his participation at
9:02 am
a move came about because of security concerns following a reason. ukrainian drone attack on that of the russian navy. so that it will rule the pose a threat both to our ships, which must ensure the safety of the grain exports and to civilian vessels that are engaged in this, we have pledge to guarantee security. if you create a tax, these vessels, we will be to blame. everyone is now talking about what russia is doing without thinking about what has led to this, the creation of a threat to this humanitarian corridor. russia zeroed in on this issue during a un security council meeting that it cold for accusing ukraine of triggering the stoppage with its saturday drone attack off the coast of crimea. moscow further noted that the safety of shipping along the corridor canopy, guaranteed until kiev commits not to use it for military purposes. and so what all went down at the un roughly 24 hours ago. correspondent caleb and i think it's on
9:03 am
the the meeting took place and we heard from un official describing the grain deal, the fact that it now suspended the impact that'll have on the global economy on the price of grain globally cetera. then from there we did hear from the russian representative ambassador and then the took to the floor in the security council chamber, and just laid out the facts about why reactions of ukraine using the corridor for military purposes. the recent attack has forced russia hands and the deal is now suspended. this was not russia using. this is a response to action from ukraine that were carried out with the support of the west. this is what he said. kim's attack on the black sea fleet puts an end to the humanitarian dimension of the stem. but agreements, the black sea grain initiative should not be carried out without russia's presence . we are surprised that the un did not condemn care attack on the ships of the black sea fleet. now there were some voices if the security council chamber who did
9:04 am
speak in support of what russia said money referring to this attack as essentially an active mirrors are preventing food from being distributed, violating agreement. now we heard from the state and their usual ally to ignored what russia backs russia presented and simply proceeded to demonize rock as they usually do in meetings of this type claiming that everything russia somehow a conspiracy theory. every threat of evidence that russia has presented is somehow all fabrication not going into any detail and that we not acknowledging the fact that russia brings before the council, the typical actions and words of the usa and their allies before the council. however, there was a moment of optimism that we did see which was we heard un officials announcing they will be conducting an investigation of the attack on the blacks. the fleet was present. it would indeed be
9:05 am
a grave abuse of the black sea grain initiative. if it were used in any way for military operational advantage, united nations has the solemn privilege of assisting the parties to implement this new unique arrangement and acting as a secretary it. the u. n. is ready to investigate along with member states party to the initiative. any and all evidence, if requested quite a day at the un headquarters in manhattan. let's remember that very building that house the, the un security council. we also post the world and food program and all kinds of n g o. the hands that are responsible for dealing with the situation regarding world hunger. so today in that very building, we had the un security council of 15 member body that leads the united nation reconvene to discuss the aftermath of an attack on a humanitarian corridor and candidate for enabling food to be bored in gram.
9:06 am
another aspect of the russian liter statement, late on monday night, with only 5 percent of the grain exports from ukraine of actually gone to the most in need nations. early am i called a unit, a neil was here, of course, in the studio discussing the issue with human and labor rights lawyer. don kovachick, look the disinformation, the censorship around this conflict in ukraine and around russia in general. the disinformation and censorship in the west, and particularly in the u. s, which i can speak to because i am from the united states is unprecedented. i have never seen this level of disinformation ever regarding any conflict. and that saying a lot, because we've been lied to a lot about many things about weapons of mass destruction in iraq, about the gulf, the fall again, and vietnam, et cetera, et cetera. but this is the worst i've ever seen it. they do not want to humanize russia or even the russian people they want to de, humanize them to justify continuing to send billions and billions of dollars of
9:07 am
argument to you, crime, global food, the crisis being able to solve that very much top of the agenda for many countries, russia had suspended its participation in the black sea green export. what's your thoughts on that? first of all. well, obviously, i'm saddened by it. it's, you know, people are going to be hurt by that. a lot of the world is particularly the middle east in africa depend on grain from this region for their survival. at the same time it, it does appear that there were attacks against the russian fleet in the black sea by ukrainian forces. and apparently the u. k. was somehow involved as well, and obviously, you know, when that happens it's no longer a humanitarian court or right. it's now a military court or so it's very regrettable. but i would say that it's, that it is understandable. the russian president has called the sabotage of the
9:08 am
nord stream pipeline system, a quote, terrorist attack. the thought that the countries are top gas producer was finally allowed to investigate the site of the explosions that were full month after the attack took place. the question is sitting this junk of slew ms. jess problem has been allowed to examine the explosion site on the north stream pipeline systems. there were 2 craters, 3 and 5 meters deep. a pipe 40 meters long was ripped out of place. been to the 90 degree angle and hurled 40 meters to the side in the direction of the north train to pipeline, which was also damaged by the explosion and fragments of that pipe. but this was clearly a terrorist attack. it is difficult for us to maintain control over this part of the system because it's within the territory of the special economic zone of denmark, sweden and germany. extra 2 g. the explosions on that old stream pipelines occurred on september 26th and were quickly declared as sabotaged by both the west and
9:09 am
russia. and international probe was launched. but moscow was blocked from participation. russia claims that the u. k. had involvement in the attack and accusation london has dismissed his union and dank of alec again on this. so suggesting there's one clear reason why russia was banned from the investigation. first, i don't think they wanted russia the to see any proof of who damage the pipeline because i think that would implicate the united states in the u. k. but also, you know, because they wanted to destroy, they didn't, they didn't want russia to access to, to be able to fix it. they want the north stream to destroyed. and because they don't want countries like germany, they have have the option of using it in the future. i think we know that us and british intelligence are very much involved in helping the ukraine military
9:10 am
serve. certainly with targeting. we know the ca, for example, is been in the ukraine even before the special operations training various forces there to kill russians. and by the way, that's in the, the i was quoting people who actually trained by the ca, they were, you know, that's what they were trained in, you know, and as i understand the situation on the ground, i mean, you know, essentially the ukrainian military was more or less destroyed in the early weeks of the special operation. and you know what, what ukraine military is now fighting with is almost all from nato. you know, so this really is now a conflict between russia and nato. even though, you know, obviously no one wants to say that explicitly, but i think that's what japan has decided to retain its 30 percent stake, a major new russian oil and gas project. it's called cycling one. japan's industries,
9:11 am
ministers to the scheme is extremely important for his countries energy security. however, the move flies in the face of an earlier g 7 commitment to ban russian oil. let's take this further here, want to national right now and i'm crossing live to contribute a there's a rachel moss and good to see you today. rachel, this a mental go down to well with other g 7 members, most of whom are buying in the middle of a sanction induced energy crisis. yeah, well up until now japan is pretty much just fall in line with the russ the west and russian sanctions. and as part of the western lead g 7, no care was expected to participate in the russian oil price cap. that washington is ginny, up in the attempt to limit russian oil revenues. now, because an oil buyers cartels and only really work if and that's countries sign on . well, this could be a problem. so washington figured out that the very least they could call this shot for all of its g 7 allies. now, earlier this year,
9:12 am
the group even pledged to phase out russian oil imports. it's not like 7 countries are going to be able to control the global markets for oil or for anything else, but it's maybe enough to get some decent virtue signaling going and maybe keep ukrainian present primary ones out there back for a few minutes. but now tokyo has ruined the whole spectacle is unity by announcing that it would stick with brushes. in one wailing gas project, which american multinational exxon mobil pulled out of earlier this year. japan, government, and oil executives are explaining that it's just not practical to leave the project . unlike europe or the us, japan depends on overseas for almost all of its energy needs. so it's not possible to cut off ties with russia because of the sanctions. in reality, we cannot survive unless we continue to import from russia even if the volumes are
9:13 am
smaller. so this is the 1st time that a major u. s. ally has decided that the interest of its own economy and citizens are more important than complying with washington demands in its effort to contain russia. it's no wonder since japan's inflation rate for electricity as at one a 1.5 percent and that 1900.4 percent or gas. so i guess japanese leaders are just going to pretend that something like short showers or turtlenecks can fix problems like this, unlike european leaders. so speaking of which the big question now is, what is the us going to do about it on this japan or just let it slide? and this is a really interesting litmus tests for all western allies. we're really feeling the pressure to sell out their own interests, just to keep up appearances with respect to unity and ukraine. the european union
9:14 am
in particular, must be watching this and thinking what you mean. we could have just said no and drawing a red line that sanctioning our own russian gas supply. because well, that's pretty much exactly what japan was just done and so far, crickets from washington. all right, rachel, some pretty fat points being made that always get to see you will see a soon well, a political tensions on the rise and kenya, no opposition. leaders have been denouncing the recently elected president william root over his embrace of genetically modified crops and fears. of mass hunger now lifting the ban on g m o crops which had stood in place for 10 years, was one of the 1st moves by the new administration. it opens the door for the cultivation and import have scientifically engineered seeds, including the countries staple corn. now according to the un, it's happening is kenya was experiencing the worst drought conditions in 40 years,
9:15 am
putting millions of lives at risk a while of food and security seems to be president rudo. his main concern is opponents see a largest scheme at play. they've accused the ruling government of profiting from the approval and becoming basically dependent on imports. but i should just point out though, back in 2011, the opposition had a very different opinion calling those opposed to g m foods quote, to conservative. the americans cannot be so negligent as to allow the american people to consume gym of food if it is harmful. let us not be too conservative because science is moving on. conservatism is not going to help this country. alarm the statements are calculated to instill fear. in this scheme, the worst, the pain, the bigger the gain for the shy locks in government. we were talking with emanuel a tanda coordinator of an organization that strives to and hunger, and kenya, who says that genetically modified crops won't be welcomed by many of the citizens
9:16 am
of the country. i don't think you'd have a student problem in this century that we need to use. jim was i think that's more of a hyped and what they talk about under benefits most basically we negative generalist that is really no. i didn't see introducing gym or yes. so many options mentioned, chevron looks like you are back from somebody in the sense that we all are please will be clear that there is no market for most in this country. and well, i wish you would. you was definitely i don't think and limited to by no means that you're not going to give us, can you not really dynamic and the big thing on the
9:17 am
new side. so we kinda consume, i will actually make the final decision. great to have your company today, rather familiar scene, once again in israel for the 5th time in only 4 years, dozens of parties are competing in elections for that of the national parliament. and the recent polls suggest the right wing party of the former prime minister benjamin netanyahu is a head, possibly even restoring him to the premiership. the liberal party of the current prime minister, i am lucky, it is expected to come in 2nd now in the background to all about the local human rights watch. dog is a race concerns of palestinians and contested territories not being allowed to stand as candidates in the elections or even cost votes, whereas israelis living in those areas can. the organization also alleges that israel has reduced palestine to a state of apartheid. now it comes as the un envoy for the palestinian territories recently slammed israel for quote,
9:18 am
settler colonialism. israeli government for its part has previously said such remarks had the goal of defaming and isolating israel by betraying it as a racist entity. also a police of cold on settlers who have gun licenses to take their arm to the polls. that's according to local media reports. earlier the israeli army deployed $200.00 additional troops to the west bank to guard against possible attacks and announced a military shut down on a number of palestinian cities and towns on tuesday. a palestinian officials a claim. israel is depriving the pallor. student people have exercising their rights, doesn't have his and i e learn to say about i am the campaigning for israel's elections, has led to more killing more israeli settlements and blockades against our people. we know these elections will not bring about a partnership for peace, and the world must force israel to allow our palestinian people to exercise their right to vote during these elections, including in the city of jerusalem. is there any state in if you like in the 1st
9:19 am
place, it's an apartheid ecolog nearest estate. so the violence is part of this colonial project anyway, all the time since the establishment of that was right, it was based on violence. and today, the violence is even more with the atrocities by these are in the army on the one hand. and the settlers who are protected by this army who are all sold by erecting the international law and violating the human rights for the parisians. by all these attacks and atrocities against the palestinians in all of their life aspects . these are ily, thanks to them. they provide us every day with the new evidence of these violations . but if the international community are going to stop that, i think today it's, it's really very hard to say so or to even expect that because they are not going to take any action against israel unless they take action. and i think will happen
9:20 am
on the one hand, most of the european who do know that these are violating the international law and validity, even the european, those and the human rights close. but at the same time, they say, or they think that the relationship of their interest with america is more important than the, the rights of the unions. which quite clear that which is a kind of but you know, hypocrisy and doubly strengthen the newly minted owner of twitter ilan must cause now change the bio and his account to twitter complaint hotline operator seems. perhaps the actually means that a masks efforts to reform the online platform of seen him take matters into his own hands. for example, he's created a new ty, ukraine, state affiliated media, set alongside the existing russia and china ones. the move delighted, certainly some twitter users with some also calling for a western media aversion to. meanwhile, muska blocked some twitter employees access to internal moderation. another policy
9:21 am
enforcement tools is also unblocked. a number of accounts previously suspended, like the republican candidate for arrows on his governor, whose account was blocked one week before elections, but it's now been restored after mosque had promised he would look into it. and meanwhile, some prominent us democrats have expressed outrage of a musket poachers of twitter. a former senior official under obama says the billionaire should be held personally responsible if he allows hate speech on the platform. this point i think it's going to be the responsibility of each and every one of us to do what we can to whole de la musk accountable. he will back off when there is pressure. and so folks who care about the truth, who care about protecting vulnerable communities, who ultimately are the ones who are going to be most hurt by his irresponsible behavior in allowing these voices that have to be elevated on this huge platform.
9:22 am
we have to keep pushing back, and my hope is that that is going to make a difference in the long run. little comes as moscow announced the creation of a content moderation council to revise twitter policies on bands for expressing certain opinions while simultaneously disbanding the board of directors and cutting staff. now among those 5 was the executive who ban donald trump, twitter. also, now fac checks president biden's statements. well, the host of the conservative daily podcasts, jo waldman believes that moscow taking up a twitter is good not only for the us, but also for the world. i think what the democrats are starting to realize is that by must taking over twitter even if they were to have a mass exodus. it still is a powerful platform where people are too curious to be dragged back to the platform to figure out what is or is not true. and by him doing the things that he did,
9:23 am
you know, he, he fact checked hillary clinton, he fact checked. joe biden, he fact checked the new york times all in one day and which made the talking heads on the radical left. maybe he meant he makes their heads explode because what he's, what he's really saying is if you're going to say something, make sure it's true. otherwise we're not going to make sure that people actually can hear it. if they do hear, we're going to make sure that they know because we do believe in free speech, that what you're saying is a lie, you know, even talks about how he wants to restore humanity and the 1st place of restoration to get to a place of restoration inside of society is to make sure you can have honest dialogue and by him doing this, the one thing that i see coming out of this is that we're going to get back to on this dialogue. we're going to have conversation rather feeling like we're oppressed, so i think it's going to be good for the us. it'll be good for people around the world. so a police have, as we understand now, 5 gas to dispose of thousands of protesters in the democratic republic of congo de
9:24 am
been rallying against neighboring rwanda. the protest as choose we're wonder of backing a militant group known as m $23.00. it follows an attack by rebels from that group who captured new territory in a well northern congo province last week, prompting thousands display their homes. everyone does government denies backing b m. 23. so for the last congo, expel, they were wondering to pass that or, and also recall the top end boy. a local journalist gave us more details. firstly, we get violence. you know, since the beginning of this year, violence crazy and we have more normal me pull one and go to bed and they can me, we have this kind of situation. we're 23 group out the king base more space and then before and that a lot of spite entry and intrigue doesn't have any local supports right now. like,
