ah, ah, a large extent, the level of prosperity achieved in colonial countries is based on stealing from africa. so just in europe do not hide. the lot of mere prudence slammed the western countries for exploiting their former colonies. at his latest speech about the emergent world, as russia celebrates its annual unity day, british military intelligence had plans to set up a group of ukrainians partisan the crimea to attack russian target. that's according to league documents obtained by investigative news outlet, the grey zone. we hear from the website's team editor, construction of this secret ukrainian terror army mirrors the kind of tactics that

we've seen play out in crimea in the past several weeks. and we will never be a cash cow for america. runs president shoots down a pledge by us president joe biden, to bring washington's version of democracy to be as armor republic. i'm in mass protest there. ah, from moscow to the world. this is our international. i'm rachel blevins, and these are the top stories. this, our robbery, the slave trade and the suffering of african people help shape the prosperity of western countries. that's a statement made by russian president vladimir putin as a nation, celebrates its annual unity day holiday, was that she still is tiffiny. to a large extent,

the level of prosperity achieved in colonial countries is based on stealing from africa. researches in europe do not hide this. they say the prosperity of the colonial powers is largely built on the grief and suffering of african peoples. this is an obvious fact robbery. the slave trade. this is a significant part of world history, and it is impossible to turned a blind eye to it. no, europe yeskis their leases of sim you. european capitals have recently been the centers of the universe, but this is already in the past. great britain was such an influential power, but there are now 67000000 people in the u. k. while in one indian state alone, there are 241000000 when used in the largest country in europe, germany, and there are 84000000 people. and in china's going dong province alone, 126000000. these are the countries that were once great superpowers, but of turned into medium or small countries that we know about polish ideas to

create a great state from see to see before world war 2. there has been a lot of talk about this of it. now we see hugs between the leaders of polen, ukraine, but the idea remains alive, and the idea of poland absorption of ukraine. it has not gone away shortly. just to give you some background on that last remark by the russian president. earlier several european media reports accused each member's state, poland, applauding to seize parts of western ukraine and then the conflict european studies for vassar, steven guy, it says that western powers are using ukraine, attempt to maintain their how germany, the old monster will not give up to power so easily. what i do believe is that the west will try to hold this neo colonial group for as long as they can and they will invest more as much as they are able to. the western powers will do everything to

drain as much as i mean, it sounds horrible, but as much blood as possible from russians from both sides of the aisle for russia is now defending the emerging multiple are world order. and up on the results of this battle, and we'll see we don't want to world, we live in a statement america and also touched upon a number of other issues, such as how was the current conflict in ukraine similar to the russian revolution over a 100 years ago we bring you that and much more on our website r t dot com. i made growing concerned that the western green agenda has come at africa expense. the u. n says in a new report that there's currently no chance of winning the rise of global temperatures. that's as western countries try to fulfill environmental policies while keeping their economies. how may this is to be addressed at the upcoming un

climate conference with leaders from around the world who gather in egypt on sunday, ortiz corolla has the story. as the world gears up for the united nations cop 27 climate change conference in sha, muskegon, egypt. so 2 of the negotiators and proponents of reducing the levels of carbon dioxide, denied atmosphere. but true to capital is valued. western nations have created a treatable monetary market out of the capture and reduction of the st. covered. if the market that only rewards manufactured means of carbon emissions. and it's the reductions. and it almost completely ignores earth natural cobblins sponges where the carbon markets are very chaotic. i will put it to the quantitative easing, especially since 2022 european market. the biggest has gone up and down and up and

down. it crashed after the russian. a conflict with ukraine began. it crashed with the energy crisis and becoming evident in september, so very unreliable markets. the kyoto protocol brought to life the mechanisms behind the carbon credit trading as it were. a carbon credit is a piece of tradable certificate that gives the owner the right to emit a set amount of carbon dioxide or the equivalent in greenhouse gases. it is tradable just like in a stock exchange with buyers and sellers. and it's also verified by an independent 3rd party carbon dioxide emissions. i said by governments throughout the world. and if emitter once to exceed the levels that have been fed, they must go and pay case a carbon credit from those that have been reducing carbon emissions. so technically, if your bank balance sheet allows you can pollute all you want. this is the dilemma

of our century of our times really the degree to which the government, especially in the west were historic emissions, are, will emissions cause or to instead privatize their. so the right to pollute, it's that dilemma where the rich have got this $130.00 trillion dollars according to mar carney flushing iran. and they're putting it into this kind of gambling casino or betting on the climate crisis. it's expecting the financiers to solve a problem when they can't even run their own markets. gabon has become a leading advocate of payment for preservation. the central african stayed was the 1st african country to be paid for reducing emissions and combating forest degradation in 2021. galvan is part of the congo base and otherwise known as the lungs of africa. and its massive trees can capture a 127000000 tons of carbon dioxide any that's equivalent to removing 30000000 cars of the road. but the inherently flawed common credit market. only rewards menu

fake chad, cabin capture and emissions efforts. mostly because that's what the market will pay for, but what about places that have preserved their forests from the very beginning? developing countries do have a legitimate reason to feel aggrieved by the fact that you're the developed world is sitting there saying, oh, you should exploit your natural resources. meanwhile, in developing countries in europe decimated all of their forests in the 161718 hundreds carbon markets. ready will help to pay, and she's like the one and countries like brazil, jude not destroy the rain force that they have. carbon credits could be a game changer for africa and the developing world. they will also offer a quick, a path to the target of net 0 emissions, as well as the painting economies. but western countries, i'm not keen to pay countries with huge forest than trees to do what forest than

trees would do anyway. but it's, we've seen in recent years, forest do not keep themselves through the questions whether we've got the technical fixes that concern. you've got a bigger dilemma, can't be used better natural systems. these are the questions of nature versus technology. and unfortunately, finance gets more profits from technology. so that's where the carbon market funding is going, rather than for land reforming for our natural restorative systems. the developing world is largely the key bar of the earth's natural ecosystem that continue to gobble up most of the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. and as the head to the united nations climate change conference, they will make a case for the existing forest to be included in the tree, double credit, cobrin market. because long before net ve roll became a buzzword, the forest, well, all ready, absorbing, cobbling. if the world is serious about reducing the levels of carbon dioxide in

the atmosphere, forests like goblins must be a priority and monetizing them will be beneficial to all. and historic polluters like western countries have a stock choice facing the my head of cob 27. even increase their carbon budget or give up all hope of ever getting carbon dioxide levels under control. got, i'm all, if i have a lot of teen enjoyed, has been british military intelligence, reportedly planned to organize a secret army of ukrainian partisans and crimea to attack russian targets on the peninsula back according to leak documents obtained by investigative news outlet. the grey zone, the report says a private british defense contracting firm prevail partners was supposed to reform the militant group to conduct sabotaged operations on behalf of the ukrainian security service. allegedly, the company signed

a deal with ukrainian officials and the port city of odessa and an influential oligarchy was involved in funding this scheme. the grades as chief editor says, the western establishment media has turned a blind eye to such activities. well, these are primary documents that were distributed between a cell of british military intelligence operatives. both operating in the public and private sector, overseen by chris donnelly. we obtain documents on within donnelly's group which presented a blueprint for attacking the courge bridge just months before the bridge itself was attacked. so we verified the metadata of these documents and we spoke to many of the figures involved about them. and we can confirm that these documents and the plan behind them is an indeed authentic. we haven't seen any british official

reaction to these documents we've obtained. and we are unable at the gray zone to verify that this cell of british military and dot military intelligence operatives responsible for producing these documents was directly involved in any of the ukrainian sabotage attacks. we've seen. all we can say is that the blueprint for these attacks and the construction of the secret ukrainian terror army mirrors the kind of tactics that we've seen play out in crimea in the past several weeks. this would seem to be a massive story. and yet, british media has totally ignored it. the grey zone previously reported that british military officials were involved in a plan to pro blow up the crimean bridge using specially trained ukrainian soldiers . that was 6 months before the bridge was damaged by bombing in october. russia claims the head of the cranes military intelligence orchestrated the attack.

serbian president alexander virginia says western powers have remained silent about a tax on russian infrastructure. pollute the tunnel said to queen asthma, there is no politician in the world who doesn't know who we all play dom and remain silent so as not to harm the country's interests. what can i say? that's the kind of hypocrisy that is everywhere nowadays. even if it were to happen to the balkan stream, we would survive somehow. i don't know if others would be with us. the grey zone has also uncovered sources that said the wife of ukrainian president zalinski was the one who push for the news outlet to be banned from an important global tag conference hosted by each member state portugal, ukraine's 1st lady elaine as the lens gap was the keynote speaker at the web summit conference, she had reportedly threatened to quote, apply significant influence on sponsors if the gray zone was in ban. the news outlet was initially granted a press pass for the event,

but that was canceled. the grey zones chief editor, again says, moved to a band. the news outlet is yet another example of ukraine's fight against freedom of the press. the ukrainian government's war or on the free exchange of ideas and free expression. moving into the heart of western europe with the direct personal lobbying campaign of ukrainian 1st lady orland as alaska to ban the grey zone from a major tech conference to which we were invited web summit in lisbon portugal where we had the gray zone. are one of the few english language us based outlets that is reported on the ukrainian government maintenance of a de facto hit list that contains the names of over 400 journalists. we have reported on this list, mirrored for ads as well as the domestic repression under the watch of ukrainian

president vladimir zalinski of the ukrainian media. and this is especially significant because ukraine and specifically the zalinski is claimed to be fighting on behalf of democracy and to preserve a democratic west. but what they are doing in practice is crushing speech and a free press at home. and now, in supposedly, in, in the heart of supposedly democratic nations. ah, now to the latest on the crank conflict as authority, se ukrainian forces have conducted an artillery attack and elegance, republic with us supplied high mars rockets. there's been no immediate information about casualties. meanwhile, the deputy had of the hearse on reagan has called on civilians to immediately leave the regional capital amid reports of an upcoming ukrainian offensive. as many as 80000 people have left her san since the evacuation started. and in the dynamic

republic, a woman was killed as ukrainian rockets had a residential building. according to local officials, i made the persistent shelling many residents have been struggling to access drinking water. here's our tea correspondent, maxim altura with his report. sannicolas lithia youse holds ins and ask receive water for only a couple of hours once in 3 days. despite the fact that such water isn't drinkable, people sees on every 2nd of access to it. they have to buy their drinking water separately, were seated at distribution voice. if you read anything, every 3 days, they give us drinking water, but there's no water in my bath anymore. all the bottles are empty. i'm now ordering some more drinking water. i thought it only has saudi adam. yeah. people stand in long queues for drinking water despite the constant sounds of ukrainian shilling. but these people have no choice, but the keep standing in line through the roosevelt. i her detox of an

infrastructure and kill people. he's got the other 3 now when you were supplied with industrial war to wanted through dice, but not on a regular basis. russian cause been water once every to your 3 dice. but a pot from this, we can go to the river bank where fire stations located and get industrial water for our needs, their to fossil about to that, that mean the saudi. so trying to meet all the needs of the people, but the situation on the battlefield dictates his own rules. so people have to ration their water consumption and heating cause a yeah, monsieur, this was which influential to us of the situation with the centralized water supply is very difficult. water for the dunbar. cities is channeled from the river of sitarski donuts due to the military battles in the area of the channel has taken multiple damage, so it's no longer operable. the water supply has essentially stopped when the deal will oh, well, how many from the very 1st day of russia's military operation. the korean army has been shilling dumbass infrastructure, including water generators, causing the local people to suffer. this can only be stopped by liberating the

territories with water sources or seeking alternative solutions. the residents of dumbasses suffer from a lack of water because the ukrainian military still controls the few water sources . while the ongoing ukrainian shelling of infrastructure is only making matters worse. quo not another penny will go to ukraine. those are the words of outspoken republican congresswoman marjorie taylor green. who says that if her party takes the majority in the mid term elections, american taxpayer money will no longer be used to finance key as war effort. the only border they care about is ukraine. not america. southern border. under republicans, not another penny will go to ukraine. ah, our country transfers here however, has said it's not worried about continuing to receive money from the us. that's as

the pentagon has approved, another $400000000.00 of military aid to the country with the democrats controlling congress. the u. s. has provided more than $18000000000.00 to ukraine since the beginning of the conflict with russia. a national lawmaker in ukraine has asserted that the u. s. support comes directly from the american people. but american voters, amid the critical mid term elections appear to have other priorities on their minds . that's as a long list of domestic problems, especially spiraling price inflation. i've talked a recent nationwide opinion poll for more on this less cross live now to radio host and political commentator, steve gill, who joins us from nashville, tennessee. steve, it's great to have you on the program today. now, we know that this is a season where politicians are known for making

a lot of promises. so do you think that the republican party would actually stop all military aid to ukraine, as margery taylor green is claiming that they would i don't think that there is a unanimity of thought on the side. assuming that said, you can't control the house and the senate next tuesday when, when the elections are held. i do think that there is a reluctance to continue right. blank checks on to you. right. the bill factors government fund there. i think or all right, it looks like we're having a little trouble with the connection there. we'll try to get steve gill back again though steve go radio host in political commentator or ron's

president has slammed you as president joe biden support for a mass protest movement. in the islamic republic saying to ron, we'll never be under the control of america. and the u. s. president, the city wants to liberate iran. iran was freed 43 years ago and was determined not to be america's captive. we will never be a cash cow full america. go home room. oh, that comes amid reports of the white house has been in talks with aerospace contractor space acts to provide iranian protesters with star link satellite internet access like in ukraine. iran has been hit by a wave of protest following the death of a 22 year old woman in police custody. her family has blamed the authorities for her death to ron has denied responsibility. c c but bite

is not alone in his efforts to intervene in her wrongs domestic affairs just last week, canada's prime minister took to the streets of ottawa in support of protesting iranians, vowing to oppose to rawlins government. i use to say no is i know this past that so we will continue to do everything we can. ah, we heard from professors i ad mohammed mirandi at the university of to ron, who says the western leaders, comments revealed their regime change agenda. the iranians believe that biden, when he says that the united states is going to free iranians and exposes the united states for what it really is. the united states is an impressive and brutal regime that tries to dictate terms to the rest of the world. and the revolution in

iran was about independence, freedom and dignity. and over the past few weeks, the united states has been supporting riots and iran, big been supporting terrorist organizations. it's astounding that western countries consider themselves for tre, themselves as the defenders of human rights. ironically, today, there are huge anti american protests across the country, including intact ron, where millions of people participated across the country. and you don't see any of that in the western media. let's go back to our previous story and that info on this quote that not another penny will go to ukraine. those are, of course, the words of outspoken republican congresswoman marjorie taylor green, who says that if her party takes the majority in the mid term elections, american taxpayer money will no longer use to finance key ads, war effort. the only border they care about is ukraine. not america,

southern border under republicans, not another penny will go to ukraine. ah, our country comes 1st. let's bring back in radio host and political commentator, steve gill, steve. good to see. ok. so let's go back to that question. do you think that the republican party would actually stop all military a to ukraine? and of course, the big question there. in addition to that is how would you as defense, manufacturers react? i don't think there's unanimous agreement on the republican side of what to do in terms of continuing to provide funds do you crane? i think there will be a lot more accountability. i think there will be a demand for more transparency of how the money has been and will be spent. and i think you hit exactly the right point. a lot of this funding for military operations, military armament is funding military suppliers in the us. i think they're the ones

that are wanting to keep this war going. they don't want to see peace because that comes into their pocket books. i think republicans will certainly be willing to look a little bit more technically at how the money is being spent and how much we are spending. we spent over 65000000 the by did ministration, is talking about another 50000000000 and i think american taxpayers are pretty fed up and i think marjorie taylor grade is hearing that from her constituents as well . and you mentioned where american taxpayers are on this and it seems like every time we get a survey, they're saying that they're concerned about inflation. they're concerned about the u. s. economy. and especially out of time when we have a very important election, just a few days away is, is one of those cases where you're seeing republican lawmakers now paying attention more to what the american people are saying and saying that they are going to try to cater to that, especially when it seems as though democrats are doing the opposite in some cases.

look, as people are driving on roads with potholes. here they're concerned about bridges and road infrastructure. here in the u. s. and a lot less about how, what the infrastructure in ukraine is handling it. you know, we need to rebuild the, our energy sector, our water in our own sectors in the us. i think the taxpayers are certainly feeling that and they're telling their members of congress. ukraine does not show up at the very top of poles as we have in this tuesday election. and i think again, congress men and women like marjorie taylor grain are hearing and pretty loud and clear from their constituents that they want money spent here not, not in ukraine. and it's sad that we're having to get to the point of their being a major election for those concerns actually be heard and hopefully acted on. maybe we will see, of course, but now when it comes to the response that we've heard from you crane, it's interesting we can key ever said is not worried about whether it'll continue to get us military aid. do you think that they should be more concern,

or is this just one of those cases where they've received so much in terms of a funding and weapons so far that they're expecting it to continue? at least in some way. i think there will be a continued flow of some weapons and certainly some humanitarian aid. but as your previous story was pointing out, humanitarian aid also needs to be directed in the dumbass region where people don't have water. they don't have energy resources. they're heading into winter there as well. there needs to be more balance in, in the idea of humanitarian aid. and i think with a new republican majority in the house and likely, i think there will be demands for a little bit fair treatment of the people of ukraine on both sides of the conflict . and it's one thing to provide aid and to support that. but it's another thing when the american people themselves are suffering and a number of ways. but at the same time, several ukrainian m. p. 's have said that they feel confident about continuing to

receive the support of the american people. do you think that that's really the case and how would you say americans feel about billions of dollars of their tax money being sent to you? crane in a number of cases with no oversight? well again, i think part of the story that has not been told in the u. s. this is what the ukranian regime has done in terms of, of banning opposition. political parties limiting free speech, limiting the press to, to actually report on what's going on. and while they continue to propagandized, they are and in the us that this is all about our democracy and freedom. i think you are starting to see the truth split out. and that again, combined with the pressure that politicians are going to feel for one year rather than they are. i think we'll start to change the dynamic of how this war is, is represented how americans hear about it and, and what expectations they have with their own tax dollars that we forward. right.

and when it comes to those expectations that they have, i mean, you look at a number of the complex involved in the us war on terror. and americans were able to relate to that because that affected them directly. but why do you think that the u. s. has become so invested in ukraine and you think that the american people are going to continue to go along with this expectation that they need to support that unprecedented a no matter the cost. i think a lot of it goes is reporting the last several years, basically from when president trump took office the, the claim, the false claim that russia, russia, russia and put him in office that had democrats aligned against president trump and against russia regardless of, of the truth of their allegations, and i think you have sort of the vestiges of the cold war that a lot of conservative republicans ill have suspicions that russia is an enemy and are the best. who helps combine the propaganda to, to work very effectively here. even though you now have our secretary of state,

other military leaders pointing out that the real threat to the u. s. is more china, russia. that's not the story american heard at our media for the last few years. certainly a lot of stake there and we'll continue to follow the upcoming mid term elections. steve gail radio host and political commentator. thank you so much for your time and insight. thanks rachel. and that's all for now. we're here to check out our t. v dot com for all the latest breaking news and updates. we'll see right back here at the top of the hour. ah ah.
