who was wounded in an apparent assassination attempt with washington excludes the struggling west african nation of bikini foster from a trade deal because he says, there's not enough democracy there that says locals facing a devastating geologist, insurgency say they need a helping hand survive, and it probably won't be from the west where they could order one. but yeah, if we're under the pressure of terrors and we do have a right to choose who we want to work with this unity in, nate, so member states to key it says it won't allow sweden and finland in the block until they fulfill certain demands, despite the pressure from the alliances leadership with july, from our studio here in the russian capital, you're watching odyssey. my name is peter scott's here with all the latest is friday afternoon. welcome to the program. and we start this out with the late in

the ukraine conflate to moscow and key of conducts had a prison assault on thursday with east side exchanging a 170 captured soldiers. there some troops are now on home turf. this what did shows the russian soldiers landing at the military air base in the moscow region. russia's defense ministry had previously warned that the lives of service personnel could be in danger in ukrainian captivity. all of the freed soldiers will now and to go rehabilitation in a hospital as part of the deal rationally, 207 ukrainian soldiers, most of whom surrendered back in may at the as of stolid steel punch in muddy you pull in the done yet. republic, some of the russian powers described what they went through but it will eliminate those 3 months. we're living hell, i don't want any one else to go through. this one is, oh, the horrible 30 that he she daily, and gladly deeply he forced disabled soldiers, but no legs to do, sit down. so it was a german key, if used by the ukranian secured to service men, a russian soldiers were kept there. but not every one managed to leave it alive.

they were interrogated under torture. also, they were lying there blindfolded. some were been beaten to death. the builder was learning as we were waiting for this moment for a long time. we didn't know what would happen to us while we were there. we were made to walk into cold for about 16 hours with all the shirts and light trousers and flip flops on. i saw some guys jailed and live off, show their legs. they were swollen from beatings, they could be beaten, for any move seen is wrong. we were told that we would be jailed once we get home there. russia had forgotten us and wouldn't help us, that we were just scums unless we are forced to learn and sing their nationalist songs and anthem saying their prayers. they wouldn't let us eat until we agree to sings, but anyhow, you can click on it. now this was the 2nd such assault between russia and ukraine in the last 5 days. archie is sophia nunez, the census this reports as the feed russian soldiers arrived back in. now, not russia and ukraine, carried out another prisoner exchange, 107,

the russian military personnel, 65 of whom are from de logan's and donate peoples republics, have been released to day. and some of them just landed at the airport near moscow from where they will be transported to the capital and given all necessary psychological and medical help. ukrainian officials have already confirmed that they received the same number of soldiers in return. to be honest emotions, kara overwhelming, shall go a good good. i'm still shocked. i can't believe this is really happening. it's hard for me to talk about it now. did you all those little brother, the more the main thing is that we finally returned home. thank god, with my nephew is still being held captive though. he's wounded there. i've come to the airport to meet my son. i'm here with my daughter and long we were very worried and scared for him. i still feel that fear today's feel w exchange is the latest in the series of prisoner swaps. the last one came at the end of october and involved the release of thief to russian and feasted to

ukrainian soldiers, including regular soldiers, national guardsmen and navy personnel, and border guards. and even though this prisoner swaps are sometimes very difficult to achieve its old worth, it in then beaten, insulted, and humiliated. that's how the don by soldiers have described 7 months of cups of tea in ukraine. as moscow give increased, their prisoner exchanges more. more harrowing stories have come to lights. results is romika also explains. some of the generic republic soldiers has spent at least 7 months in ukrainian captivity. there, there were tortured physically and mentally. finally, they have made their way back home to john that's i've spoken to some of them, and they told me horrific stories of their captivity in ukraine lu 1000000000, the holocaust, helena of linea. we were near harker far in the village of alpha, and suddenly ukraine's forces fired

a massive artillery barrage. then we saw that we were surrounded hut 1st. they put us in a hanger, the district, one of us naked when it was freezing outside, below a chance thrashed them and was burst carried. we didn't know what would happen to us when we were in the hangar near hartfield. we're constantly beaten until the commander came. the relentless m bullet and insolent ursa they bid me on the soles of my feet was combat boots, but on, whoa, whoa, whoa, says she, jane. but he then we were tied up and taken care of his ukraine's main intelligence directorate, where we spent a month and a half in the basement songs. the officers beat us during interrogations. and just because they felt like it, oh, they really beat me up when the asked me who's didn't ask, is it? and i replied that it is, of course, russian done with them. there was a briefing that, well, they told us where we need to say as they wanted to use us for propaganda purposes . and they told us that we should say that we were young students taken to the front lines, but we were volunteers of we went to defend our mother landscape. then we were

transported to pull tava to a pre trial detention center on link rusnick. it has to be did in that and i get we saw the red cross for the 1st time and pull tower. it was impossible to talk confidentially because ukrainians were sitting behind the wall. you could hear everything all. and before that, the administration approached us and told us not to tell much, otherwise we would pay for it. so that all of ukraine's defeats on the frontlines from the political frond affected us and they would threaten us in a heartbeat. they said we're a garbage that the world doesn't need, that they could just shoot all of us and they even intended to carver, sat into us. one of our soldiers had his teeth knocked out the other one wanted them to simply kill him because they were tormenting him so much. authorities in the den he had screw, public say the 2 civilians were killed and 3 wounded. as kear forces shelled the regional capital and the town of vladimir of co officials earlier said that in the past 24 hours, a woman was killed and 10 civilians wounded by ukrainian shelling of the republic. and over in the cats on region,

a civilian was killed and 2 more wounded in the ukraine and shelling of a village that's according to local health authorities in ukraine air raid warnings sounded in the central western and a southern regions. overnights and explosions were reported in the city of nikolai of meanwhile, russia has already mobilized 318000 people with nearly 50000 already in combat. that's according to vladimir putin who also emphasized the importance of making sure that civilians of russia scarce on region, no longer face hostilities with. of course, those who live in curse and need to be relocated from the zone the most dangerous hostilities. the civilian population should not suffer from showing offensives, counter offensives, and other activities related to military operations. in other news, hundreds of supporters of pakistan's, former prime minister runker and have gathered outside a hospital to show support for him. after he survived,

an apparent assassination attempt call was transferred to the facility in pockets done the 2nd largest city the whole off to be shot twice during a protest march the 4th pm, who was also earlier this year. and what he describes as a us bank, who has been rally in support throughout the country as he tries to return to power of us, denies any involvement, cons of a to gunshot wound in the leg during the attack in the northeastern city of was there about the 40 footage shows that exact moment and a quick warning it does contain disturbing images. i suspect that goodman has reportedly confessed saying that he acted alone, or if it is unclear whether the statement was made under direct call had been leading a protest march to the capitalism about with a demand for new election. local media footage has shown the 7th field with abundance leg that he was new to a vehicle with the help of the security team. in the aftermath of the psych,

thousands of constable to, to the street throughout the country. flames and smoke could be seen as protested bern tires and all the objects of speaking out against the current government. supposed to say they are fully behind con, even ready to lay down their lives, to support him. what a leather lessons up with them. we prefer him wrong cons. healthy done. we can sacrifice our lives for him. our blood is for him. wrong conley are. let me say that a tough time to this government has begun that we will overthrow them. ada longabaugh user. don't know, alanine, we're not afraid of these cheat tactics. we are ready to die for our leader in run con, in our country media at the home, sub, or mac, look it as an, as a nation. so we all standing with him run, come, we appreciate the way him run. con is leading the nation and giving awareness straight to him. yes. on. so we are standing in front of the ciocca promise memorial hospital. this is a cancer hospital. him, i'm can bill this hospital for the poor people with donation and now today

is inside a little arm taking grass. he says you are successful and we have seen tears. we have seen flowers. we have seen anger. and we have st paper that he be from the at heart and they're praying for him. and are we hope the next morning ever lies again as a father of the nation? like by many people say, is just like a father of these young generation of pakistan. not enough democracy. well, that's how washington explains why it's excluded. the struggling west african nation of burkina faso for an extensive economic development plan for the continent . i have made this decision because i have determined that the government of burkina faso has not established or made continued progress toward establishing respect for the rule of law and political pluralism of the king. a faster has been

right by devastating jihadist insurgency in recent years. with a country's defense minister, even calling on civilians to have the national security forces battle extremists and estimated 2000000 people have been displaced by the continuous fighting and local se they need a helping hand to survive and most likely won't be from the west. known the way and if you don't want to see for a long time, we have been partnering with western countries, especially the u. s. in france. but terrorism has been growing. so i think it will be smarter to look for other partners. not because we hate americans, they might also not blame us for our choices. we are under the pressure of terrorists, and we do have a right to choose who we want to work with as a bulky and bandwidth. i'll freak out a server. when kitty, a fiddle, if new leaders it will kina would follow the steps of us to be going to molly the us pick state for political oper,

said that will cannot be made the decision not to deal with the wash and private secret to group that she completed her mind by saying that the choice of michael was a bad one in terms of security. if you will point that will cannot be not shedding on the ground, everything is and i made a j, c, and cup to you by him. saudi has called population to drive it. we bought a, we bought into the military, assistant population, have eyes up all wash and up to say 2 years of military of frame 2 countries. and up to 6 to 4 years. process for nasty said to all program for comfort. the situation is i'm getting better now. vision of need issues. so you need anybody's, we have another guest house on the station. so now i can

see if there's any way to find a solution for them. otherwise i can see who you can come here to help us. thank you. i think personally, i think is welcome. yes, the united states that that it can head let's russia easy. i think there will be more efficient and where to help us defeat darrell reason in atlas. the height is humanitarian crisis shows little sign of ebay thing with millions of people still threatened with hunger disease of poverty and violence. and the worsening situation has even forced the un high commissioner for refugees to employ countries to stop turning away haitian asylum seekers. the forced removal of people

to a place where they may face risk of persecution, torture, or other serious or irreparable harm would amount to re found which is explicitly prohibited under international refugee and human rights law. international law also prohibits collective expulsions and arbitrary detention associated with it. the statement comes as u. s. agent from the border with mexico continued to carry out. must deportations of haitians, many of whom have travelled of thousands of miles in search of asylum. the bowden administration is reportedly considering a holding refugees in guantanamo bay, which unsurprisingly has drawn outrage from human rights organizations such as amnesty international washington, canada and the united nations security council are calling for the deployment of foreign troops to haiti. and that is, despite haitians themselves, continuing to protest against such foreign intervention, following the assassination of the countries president, back in june 2021. now protests that have not been well received by western leaders

. marvin go faster now ladies yoni, we understand that the haitian people do not want for an intervention that is the reality. but at the same time, we look at the crisis, the rapes, the violence of the poverty, the color of the sanitary crisis, and we must intervene in one way or another. also only over the u. s. coals for intervention i'll be met with criticism campaign is citing washington's complicated past with the country. earlier we spoke to canadian author uncritical activists. even glad, who says that all to were in the u. s. should not be deciding heights his faith by the historically word against the caribbean nation sovereignty. one i wonder is what would a canadian solution beef because when it became government running around the world, organizing a foreign intervention, brady, that seems to me like that is a canadian solution. so no, just untrue. those are comments are all over the place on this. he, he speaks a certain kind of rhetorical support for, you know, haitian sovereignty. but in fact the king government does not care but haitian

sovereignty whatsoever. and it all comes from the, the premise that canadian and american governments don't respect haitian sovereignty and don't respect haitian democracy. they don't want to let haitians, the majority of impoverished haitian, specifically determine their own fate. and so they continuously try to figure out some method of controlling the population and, and what it does is it leads to immigration further instability. ah, and the crisis we're seeing today, i think the solution is to respect haitian sovereignty. that's the macro solution to the crisis. in haiti ah, took here, has doubled down on his demands that sweden and finland must extradite suspect to terrorists if they want to join nato. that's the message from the top turkish diplomats in ankara, despite attempts by the alliance,

the chief to secure the nordic countries a session to the block. it is clear that finland and sweden have delivered on the memorandum and are committed to the long term partnership with sir kia, who memorandum dollar to move. it cannot be said that all points of the memorandum were fully implemented by these 2 countries. our goal is not to prevent nato expansion, and our goal is for these 2 countries to take important steps in the fight against terrorism. because one of the biggest threats nato faces today is precisely terrorism. on cra ones, finland and sweden to comply with the turkish extradition requests, as well as the just the legal definitions of terrorism on reverse a bond on exporting certain military equipment. now if we do not feel and do join nate, so it would comprise $32.00 countries. moscow has long spoken out against the expansion of the alliance as a direct threat, the russian national security in the book has broken his promises not to expand further east,

but the alliance is chief insult them beg and 5th is all about sending a clear message to russia these dangerous times, it is even more important to finalize the accession to prevent any misunderstanding or miscalculation in moscow and to send a clear message or to show that need to the door remains open. sarah flounder, co director of the international action center says the needs those chief demands, show that the alliance is not that democratic stalson berg is making demands on turkey and which are it's inappropriate in every way. every country must agree to the expansion, who is a member of nato, now must agree to its expansion and turkey and hungry. neither one, this expansion. and they realize that it is a danger that the,

that the alliance becomes ever more aggressive. and ever more, it expands the pressure, put on every member of nato, of to follow through on plans that they have no part in making. this is a u. s. commanded military alliance, it's not a democratic association by any means at all. the u. s. has shown that whether you're an official member or not, you can be entirely ensnared within nato. and this is ukraine is the best example of that. the russian economy is strong by 5 percent in the year september, according to the latest starts from the economy ministry amongst the decline since february drove the fall with g d, p on the up prior to the war in ukraine on subsequent western. impose sanctions. the decline however, is in line with economic economic ministry forecasts which predicted

a total loss of minus 3 percent by the end of 2022. it is expected to be on the rise in both 20242025. which is prime minister says that despite the unprecedented sanctions, the economy has maintained its steadfastness. number smugly, political. we have managed to overcome negative scenarios and to build a graph, a stabilization of our economic dynamics. so we have ensured the sustainability of public finances and the gradual restoration of consumer demand and investment activity, leprosy. beautiful was us despite western media, celebrating their quote, devastating effects on the russian economy. had lines a coin, statements by western leaders who have been praising the sanctions since february the sanctions measures we impose today. i think without question for the most consequential ever levied on russia and arguably than was consequential ever levied in history. rushes in the sea is in tatters,

and it is the kremlin that has put russia economy on the path of oblivion. in concert with our allies, we will agree a massive package of economic sanctions designed in time to hobble the russian economy. with the sanctions closing the european market to russia, moscow has been diverting its trade elsewhere. where's his trade with asia? for example, has increased by more than a 3rd since january, and is now india's largest oil supplier. me, walter kia has said its agreed to russian plans to create an international hub for gas supplies to europe with anchorage seeking to position itself as an alternative to russian energy or when it comes to sanctions anal in mahar. petra and new delhi bass professor of russian and central asian studies. so this europe that suffers the most because the sang some that imposing the whole utopian economy suffering even greater any suffering at lark salary. because of be interested in

water in black city. and you will find it difficult and all expert full grain because here the station and north africa and also saw that water is being paid on not only by the particularly because increase but also the unit and causal content actually because this will water to me in the state of the system and i saw a little bit of think that this would negotiate and this'll reduce base will i literally and so that there will be peace and that will contribute to greater prosperity in the future. and finally,

chinese video sharing platform to talk is under fire for admitting that some employees have access to the personal data of european uses for security reasons. both while outraged us officials call for the up to the band overfit the data could be 100 through the chinese government. us corporations such as facebook often violates privacy policies themselves. of these donald quarter brings is more not talked back in the headlines. it's accused of letting chinese staff access western user data and once again washington's on a which hands to band the social media platform. the council on foreign investment in the us should take action to ban tick tock. i don't believe there is a path forward for anything other than a ban, although a tech talks owned by a chinese company, it denies having any ties to beijing. the company is however upfront about the fact that a limited number of it's chinese staff are working with european data. we allow certain

employees within our corporate group located in brazil, canada, china, israel, japan, malaysia, philippines, singapore, south korea, and the united states, remote access to tick tock, european use a data. our efforts assented on limiting the number of employees with access to european use, a data minimizing data flows outside of the region and storing european use a data locally. few people likely enjoy having their private data viewed by complete strangers. but in terms of how that data is used, the west is the last party that should be pointing the finger take. twitter then recently came to light that its top lawyer at the time apparently met with the department of homeland security regularly to discuss plans to sensor users. just trying to get this in a place where the fed can work with platforms to better understand the misinformation or disinformation trends. so relevant agencies can try to pre bunk bed the bunk is useful. platforms have got to get more comfortable with government . it's really interesting how hesitant they remain. just to remind you what kind of

government is collaborating with these platforms of mass information. a 2014 statement from the national security agencies chief sums it up pretty well. we kill people based on their data. while companies like twitter clearly dot their eyes and cross their keys and collaborating with the state, there are others like facebook whose irresponsibility has led to a whole other type of nightmare in the past. remember the scandal with cambridge analytical for years it gathered facebook users data to influence elections. and mark zuckerberg feet were held to the fire for that. are you willing to change your business model in the interest of protecting individual privacy congresswoman? i'm not sure what that means, missus. arkenberg. would you be comfortable sharing with us the name of the hotel you stayed in last night? ah, ah, no. if you messaged anybody this week, would you share with us the names of the people you've messaged a senator?

no, i would probably not choose to do that publicly here across the board though, all these companies have at least one thing in common. that's the colossal amount of metadata they sell to advertisers just to make a quick buck do you or do you not collect identifiers like name age in address? yes or no. if you're creating an account, yes and using an account. yes. specific search history is when person type something into a search bar. if he have search history turned on the s device identifiers like ip address or i m e. i depending on the situation we could be collecting at. yes. all things considered if washington really believes tick, tock has done something that warrants a complete ban of the platform. perhaps it should think about what kind of punishment silicon valley deserves. it's very interesting that the u. s. would want to ban tick tock for doing the very thing that the u. s. does anomaly and not only its own citizens, but all citizens across the planet. are you look at the national security

ministration. you look at homeland security, started after $911.00 and we have advanced monitoring systems in fact. so why would the chinese problem be so different? well, the chinese are not our ally. so really it's about carolling and keeping, or even if you like, recreating ail well, a historical reference america online when the internet was once just that an app. and you did all your shopping, you bought flowers, he had your chat rooms within that ecosystem. then of course, mark sucker burg creates facebook with the same idea. your friends even only exist in facebook and they don't even need to be live humans. they just need to like you . and in this way we can control all of commerce. we can control all of the conversation. we can control people's politics. we can control everything to want the chinese to be able to exert some of that control. no, you don't. well, that's all for me, peter scouts,

but i'll be passing the button on to nicky. are and will be here in the hall seats with all the latest news of the top of the our thanks for your company. ah ah, ah would only daisy for america's midterm elections. everything seems to be breaking in the direction of the republicans. this would seem to confirm this will truly be a change election and a solid defeat for joe biden. and the democrats, the country is deeply divided. well, these elections make things worse? ah . most people, i know they laid their 8 hour job and go home and relax,

but i have about 3 or 4 more hours to go. so i just keep them close. change my clothes, 1st job. go to the 2nd and this keeps an case name from want to go home. oh, what's the book about this town? i well, it is foolish. you have to repeat the mailbox. it was, it was hamish, ah, yeah i'm, i have listen to some of that one with you. if you didn't have to, maybe work is hard to get by. you could maybe spend more time with your loved ones . why you still have them margaret. this is my grandpa sister, she ah, came off a whole.
