2:00 pm
a almost them let's see when you miss a home with in your sewage near seekers to go with stories right now. your nasty international japan retains its stake in a russian lead energy project as it deals with heavy inflation. it does so ultimately to come the 1st g separate member state to jump off the anti rushes sanctions trap with soviet president put the entire country on high alert after unidentified to rodents reportedly ends with the countries as face. and as we understand flu, right, hobo military base is nick kosovo. we've got more details still to come and opposition leaders denouncing can use recently elected president for his embracing
2:01 pm
of genetically modified crops despite the opposition endorsing the plan in the past with all right, with some heavy hitting stories on your program tonight for moscow it is so good to have you with us. it's a r t international. by the way, as the western world really made us sanctions induced energy crisis, japan has decided to retain its 30 percent stake in a major russian oil and gas project. you may know it, it's cold cycling. one, but japan's economic and trade minister said the operation is extremely important for his countries, energy security. however, the move does in fact fly in the face of an earlier commitment by g 7 member states, 2 entirely bad russian oil. now the decision comes as japan's consumer inflation rate has risen to an 8 year high. have a look at the numbers. electricity is up by more than 21 percent. gas price is up
2:02 pm
by what roughly $19.00. and while the cost of food you can see for yourself, let's get the thoughts and opinions now of artie contributor his rachel master. japan is pretty much just fall in line with the rust, the west, and russian sanctions. and as part of the western lead g 7, k was expected to participate in the russian oil price cap. that washington is ginny, off in the attempt to limit russian oil revenues. now, because an oil or oil buyers, cartels and only really work in that country, sign on. well, this could be a problem. so washington figured out that the very least they could call the shots for all of its g 7 allies. now, earlier this year, the group even pledge 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. it's maybe enough to get some decent virtue signaling going and maybe keep ukrainian present primaries lensky off their backs for
2:03 pm
a few minutes. but now tokyo has ruined the whole spectacle of unity by announcing that it would stick with rushes, sharleen, one wailing gas projects, which american multinational exxon mobil pulled out of earlier this year. japan, government, and oil executives are explaining that the country needs russian energy to survive . 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 smaller. so this is the 1st time that a major us 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 21.5 percent. and that 1900.4 percent or gas. so i guess japanese leaders are just going to pretend
2:04 pm
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 does the u. s. going to do about it? punish 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 in particular, must be watching this and thinking what you mean. we could have just said no and drawing a red line, sanctioning our own russian gas supply. because well, that's pretty much exactly what japan is just done and so far, crickets, washington, we were talking with a senior lecture at the university of bar who says japan needs his g 7 partners to understand its domestic situation. japan has to make the t 7,
2:05 pm
all i understand your position is very different from other european and also western powers. it is important to note making yourself having that relationship with all these major nuclear powers next to you. and so this is, this is reasonable that the japanese, the tissue took up and decided that, that they need to at these mitigated relationship with one of them. given the fact that japan has already alive with the u. s. and the wisdom power to contain men to criticize and sanction russia. today they meet this new turn. a simple trying to slow down the town, what spyro off the relationship with russia. when. meanwhile, the german chancellor shalt says now lamented the current state of inflation in his country in october of the talk to infant son and daughter in october,
2:06 pm
the inflation and germany reached more than 10 percent unimaginably high. and that is why it is right that our efforts are centered on measures, so that citizens and companies can cope with the consequences, the very high inflation resulting from the russian war against ukraine. so as you just heard, sholtes blame the main reason for the soaring inflation on russia. launching a war in ukraine. however, global inflation started to grow rapidly only after sweeping sanctions were imposed on moscow by many western countries, including of course germany. meanwhile, the e e u is also calling for a price cap on russian gas, although much of the union remains divided over that prospect hung up more details, aeronautics international. this was breaking news last hour. so serbia's president has put his entire country in a state of high alert and ordered the downing of any drones seen over the country.
2:07 pm
it's all coming off the reports of a number of unmanned aircraft entering the countries as space and report li, flying over various military base is a show i spoke about a short time ago with auto contributor nicolai of h as we occurred of 2 minutes ago in the last hour there, there has been some reports that several drones, as reported, came unto the serbian air space near the administrative line with the also in the door here and the camera tried to spy on the serbia military bases that are present there. this was of course, noted by the serbian army and they were alerted. and due to that, the president would said that mika, $29.00 planes were given order, that these planes should, should rise up if these drones continue to be here and to follow them and track them down. and of course, to destroy them if they are still present,
2:08 pm
but those drones a quick quickly withdrew after they will notice that the order remains, if any similar unfamiliar objects are seen in souvenir, supposed to be shut down by order of president woods. this is due to the fact that the serbian army today had the, let's say, maneuvers and the was moving close to the ministry, the water with the so called the kosovo due to their threats that they will start from today to implement their, their decision about the registration plate, sir, regarding that that the serbian cars in northern, coastal, in the dark. yeah. great to have your company for this program, but the you ends at climate change conference is due to start next week. some african nations are sounding the alarm over a lack of financial support from rich nations to help to tackle climate challenges . for example, coupons,
2:09 pm
environment minister complained that develop countries had actually failed to deliver on their promises. over and over again, developed nations have committed and not delivered. they've committed to reduce emissions and they're not delivering sufficiently, they've committed to funding and that funding doesn't ever seem to materialize. we didn't create the problem. and so you would expect a more sincere engagement from developed nations, and you would expect them to respect their word and their engagements. meanwhile, the decision of the new british prime minister not to attend the meeting in egypt is definitely being seen as something of a snob, particularly off of the countries environment. minister said, quote, is just the gathering doesn't have the same level of heads of states and prime ministers attending cairo says 90 heads of state and governments will be attending investigative journalist on co founder of the inside factor, mr. mo, deebee mo dba. he believes there are forces at play that 1st of all, don't one africa to be developed. and 2nd of all,
2:10 pm
don't for africa to be prosperous. it goes back to when we saw gender, that the coordinating pandemic. you know how the exits are big scenes. we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're can issue, you know, i mean african countries a shot to get things while the world reflection came to reasons. i think this is an in balance when it comes to, to, to, to, to door, to the way, develop nations view and the develop mission. i think the way the waste is perceived as dina. somehow to keep it and the developed, you know, because i think it developed africa, it's going to cause media problems with the wrist. and the waste on one contribution to that belief meant to the quality of most of the combination that simple everything we contribute to the economies of our countries like france like it, you know, at the expense of our own african countries. so i think the waste would love to see erica and the developed. i like china and russia. you mean, if you look at the growing presence of russia and china on the continent, it's one of brother would, is one of helping each other out is why don't finding projects that benefit both
2:11 pm
parties. you don't think the waste or the fund budget that they're going to benefit from that can coordinate that with leaders say 1999 year uses for them to own those resources. for example, i from my job to nairobi. my political tensions are on the rise in kenya, opposition leaders have been denouncing our recently elected president william rudo for his embrace of genetically modified crops amid ongoing phase of mass hunger. now lifting the ban on g m o crops, which had actually been in place for 10 years, was one of the 1st moves by the new administration. it does open the door for the cultivation and import of scientifically engineered seeds, including the country's staple crop of corn. now according to the un, it's happening as kenya is experiencing the worst draft in 40 years, ultimately putting millions of lives at risk. and while food insecurity seems to be president russo's main concern, his opponents see a larger scheme at play. they've accused the ruling government of profiting from
2:12 pm
the approval and becoming dependent on imports. but i should point out, ever so quickly that back in 2011. the opposition had a very different opinion. in fact, 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. alarming statements are calculated to instill fear. in this scheme, the worst, the pain, the bigger the game for the shy locks in government, emmanuel, a tomba, coordinator of an organization that works to end hunger and kenya says that genetically modified crops will not be welcomed by many of the citizens of the country. i don't think that you have a problem in this century that we need to your jim was i think that, you know,
2:13 pm
there's jim or is a hyped and what we talk about under benefits most basically we negative g m us. that is really no, i didn't see an introducing gym on so many times, making sure that will take you up to somebody in the sense that we we used to be clear that there is no market for most in this country. and, well, i suppose you would, you was definitely around the way i don't think lifting the bottom means that, you know, you know, i really dynamic and the reason being floating on the side. so we kinda, the consumer will actually make the final decision a little more than a week before mid term elections in america,
2:14 pm
a republican governor lashed out claiming much of the media remains fixated on the 2020 election, ultimately ignoring the pressing needs of the people today. you are in a bubble if you think anybody is talking about what happened in 2020 or talking about my logo and all that. i know the press love to talk about it. people are talking about what is happening, their pocketbooks every single day. so just ahead of the crucial mid terms, a new poll revealed around 80 percent of americans quizzed. believe the nation is quote, out of control, with only a 5th thinking of the opposite, while in a separate question, only around a 3rd felt things rational, even going well. for my white house press secretary, john saki, said, democrats, a worried momentum has shifted towards the republicans. people are fearful about where the momentum is going and some of these races. yes, they are very encouraging signs like the record early voting numbers, but numbers and some of the house races are not where they should be. i was just joined with a talk show host, so steve multi bug, we're going lived with
2:15 pm
a short time ago, have a great chat. he believes a failure to get a handle on the soaring prizes is playing badly on the reputation of the democrats have us right now. inflation is out of control prices on just about everything out of control and you have an administration that is not even admitting it, not even in admitting that it's a problem in our country, but basically forming it as a world wide problem that is out of the control of this current administration and people people understand, you see, what happened was, is that the democrats put all their eggs in the abortion basket. back in june, the u. s. supreme court overturn roe v wade. rich guy had given women the right to an abortion. and now they, the supreme court said it should be up to the states. well, all heck broke loose. and the democrats decided that would be what they would run on. well, abortion has fallen down the list of voter concerns down to about 7th or 10th on
2:16 pm
the list and what's at the top, the economy, inflation crime. and i don't even think that people are honest with the pollsters. i think that a lot of them are afraid to answer questions and be identified as evil. republicans, don't forget joe biden classified maga republicans as semi fascist. so who in their right mind wants to tell a stranger on the bone. oh yeah, i'm voting republican, so i don't even think that these polls are accurate. i think it's worse for the democrats. i appreciate your company for this program. a rather familiar scene, once again in israel. so for the 5th time in just 4 years, dozens of parties are competing in elections for that of the national parliament. i recent polls suggest the right wing party of the former prime minister benjamin netanyahu is a head, possibly restoring him to the leadership of the liberal party of the current prime minister i of la p. it is expected to come in 2nd,
2:17 pm
in the background to all of this though a local human rights watch dog has raised concerns. so the palestinians and contested territories not being allowed to stand a as candidates in the elections will be there, not even out the cost of votes, whereas israelis living in the same areas can. it comes as the un envoy for the palestinian territories recently slammed israel for quote, settler colonialism. the israeli government for its part has previously said such remarks had the goal of defaming, an isolating israel by betraying it as a racist entity. meanwhile, limits fears of election violence. police of cold on israeli settlers who have gun licenses to bring that weapons to the polls. that's according to local media reports. a israel has already deploy $200.00 extra troops to the west bank to ensure security palestinian officials claim israel is depriving the palestinian people of simply exercising their rights doesn't have is really lantus. how about am the campaigning for israel's elections has led to more killing more
2:18 pm
israeli settlements and blockades against our people. we know these elections will not bring about a partnership for peace. 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. while these are in the state in, if you like in the 1st place, it's an apartheid ecolog nearest estate. so the violence is part of this colonial project anyway, all the time since the establishment was that was, it was based on violence. and today, the violence is even more with the atrocities by these are in army on the one hand . and the settlers who are protected by this army who are also by erecting international law and by letting the human rights for the policy. and by all these attacks and atrocities against the palestinians in all of their life aspects, these are in the thanked with them. they provide us every day with the new evidence
2:19 pm
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 nothing will happen on the one hand, most of the european who do know that the israel are violating the international law and viability, even the european laws and the human rights close. but at the same time, they say, or they think that their relationship and their interest with america is more important than the, the rights of the best unions. which quite clear, like what is a kind of what, you know, hypocrisy and doubly stolen as you well know, he's only been at the helm of twitter for just a few days, but eel on must because already dubbed himself the platform was complaint hotline oper seems perhaps the means that
2:20 pm
a number of changes have already been spotted. for example, the, those twitter employees who hadn't already been socked by boss because had the moderation tools restricted a new ukraine state affiliated media tag has taken its place alongside the existing russia and china ones. and some users, including the republican candidate for ira zone, as governor of also had their accounts on blocked. meanwhile, some prominent us democrats of express outrage of a musk purchase of twitter, a former senior official over under obama, says billy, and as should be held personally responsible if he allows hate speech on the platform. it is point, i think it's going to be the responsibility of each and every one of us to do what we can to hold the law 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
2:21 pm
behavior and allowing these voices that hate to be elevated on this huge platform. we have to keep pushing back and in my hope is that that is going to make a difference in the long run. it comes as moscow announced the creation of a content moderation council to revise twitter policies on bands for expressions. so no opinions. he's also disbanding the board of directors and firing more staff among those sacked was the executive who band, donald trump. and on top of all of that, twitter will also now fact check president biden's statements. so they're going to be awfully busy these days. now the host of the conservative daily podcast, waltman believes mosque taking over twitter is not just good for america. it's actually good for the whole 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
2:22 pm
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, you know, he, he fact checked hillary clinton, the fact checked. joe biden, he fact checked at 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 you 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 honest dialogue. we're going to have conversations rather feeling like we're oppressed. so i think it's going to get the good for the us. it'll be good for people around the world. i didn't get details now from ukraine. the russian defense
2:23 pm
minister reporting the command and control center for ukraine's military have been significantly disrupted as a result of strikes on monday. the attacks are targeting control hubs, communication and energy infrastructure. in addition, the management of ukraine's armed forces on that railway logistics support. i've also been disrupted this coming again from the russian ministry of defense and don bass region now ukrainian forces, as we understand, reportedly launched a missile strike on a residential area of donya city on the following image. you can see what's left of a rocket. they hit the roof of a restaurant, complex, fortunately, no casualties reported. meanwhile, the rebuilding process and don't ask. republic is already in full swing, of course, with the health of the russian government ortiz, correspondent, remaining on location is roman casa, several towns and villages in the nest. people's republic have been completely
