and elsewhere in larger companies would lose millions and millions more as business and businesses good. and that is the reality of what we're facing, which is faster. the twin thing ties as well. she becomes new delhi. supply of india is foreign ministers. that visit must go to the bilateral relations with the us mid term elections looming poll suggest trust and election integrity has plummeted off the both sides accused each other of trying to still victory plus western countries push to use more electric cars. africans are the ones doing the heavy lifting to keep those vehicles wanting and keep them in a democratic republic of congo. say then miners are being exploited by the developed world. they came here with promises of changing our lives. but this is

not what is happening on the ground with the men and women benefit from the minerals and other countries. when our husbands are dying, no one cares about our situation. the 17 pm here in moscow. and this is asi international with the latest world news update. it's very good to have your company. the sour russia has become india as a top oil supplier, overtaking conventional providers. saudi arabia, under rock, new trade figures emerge prior to the indian foreign minister visit to moscow. on monday, for talks with his russian counts upon, the trip comes amid growing ties between moscow and new delhi. recent polls that show a majority of indians consider russia the country's most reliable partner agreeing the defense relations with moscow. all a vital for the country. and respondents also said that the brick group of states,

which includes india and russia, is the most beneficial platform for realizing the country's global interests. ortiz runjun sharma brings, is more in the us foreign minister tells wizard to moscow could not have come at a more important time with the world grappling with major food and energy crisis. doctor s j shanker studio trip is aimed at expanding cooperation between the donations during a period of whilst global challenges. energy will be a major focus off this trip, especially since the g 7 has confirmed plans on pushing for to price cap on russian oil. the groups moore was aimed at cutting rushes revenue, but could potentially hurt in del supplies. that's because where sanctions against russia left deprived a russian energy, while other countries including india expanded their trade with moscow. russia has now so passed in dallas, traditional dominance suppliers, saudi arabia and iraq as the chief supplier of its oil. so any conversations around

energy security between new delhi and moscow are becoming increasingly more and more important, despite specials from the west. india bought a phenomenal 9 lack 46000 barrels of russian crude birdie in october. it's highest ever monthly total. i don't think it will be, it will be willing to look at its energy relationship with russia, particularly as it, as it is so important for india political economy and needs. and it is so important for india, common man and woman. but moscow and new delhi share more than just oil, both a brick spot nor, and beyond economic and cultural partnerships. they share a long history of defense corporation as in the else foreign minister, recently himself acknowledged. we have, as you know, a substantial in men trio from soviet and crush and origin weapons. and doctrine

men tree actually grew for a variety of reasons. you know, the marriage shulty weapon systems themselves. but also because for a, for a multiple dick of western countries did not supply huh. supply weapons to india and such, corporations are not new or recent. so we buy a new delhi based thing tank or a stress that russia has been in dales, most reliable, bought no since had gained independence. and 1947, we did a survey. they knew you are in rich. this question was us about billing, right? either countries have shifted their support for india, or depending on the circumstances or shining, do you have had the relationship spend spec guy since independence and has been going on strong since then. junkers was it amidst the shadow of the ukraine conflict and that's fall out. will be a significant 1. 1 that the west and the world would be closely watching. region

sharma, r t new denny. moscow has once again been accused of interfering in us elections. speculation is now swirling in western media that russia is allegedly using boats to target democratic mid term candidates. here's some of the reaction to those allegations from critics in the us. with a luminous action that you know what this means, aaron matter is activated to take reports of russian interference and turned in upside down into narratives that oppose america. been aware of russian interference by employee and it's all fake. they must really love him in moscow. as a recent campaign events, i acts republican tom marino's key. if the bill he sponsored to designate russia a state sponsored terrorism would abrogate the prospect of any future diplomatic relations with russia. he replied by accusing me of working for the russian government. while the media has been flooded with headlines,

such as russia has reactivated its trolls and bolts ahead of tuesday's mid terms. some researchers have even alleged that russian actors are attempting to undermine support for democratic candidates. us cyber security and infrastructure security agency has also jumped on the bandwagon saying that china, iran and russia may all seek to influence or otherwise interfere with the u. s. democratic processes and more on that vote, a distrust is one in high and 15 republicans have written a letter querying 240001 verified ballads they say were mailed out in pennsylvania . they were told a day later that the state election results will now be delayed more the trust in the election system among the u. s. public, it pays to be sinking. 71 percent of respondents to new york times. sienna college poll said that democracy in america is the threat as the low to pose a preliminary,

so they suggest that republicans are likely to win control of both chambers of congress. some of the parties members have already threatened to shut off the money to ukraine. also contribute to rachel moss and investigate the outcome of this week's u. s. midterm elections could very well impact on europe's options in ukraine. if you look, for example, at the used pledged 18000000000 euros and funding to key for 2023. from the use 27 country collective. every pales in comparison to the $17600000000.00 already handed out by the u. s. as a single country. so is it any wonder that there's been a lot of talk on the republican side of the aisle about reeling in what's routinely described as a black check for ukraine, republican house, minority leader, kevin mccarthy, who could take over? how speaker nancy pelosi job in congress, if republicans went house majority dare to suggest recently that washington should not issue a blank check to ukraine, sparking fears among establishment figures on both sides of the aisle. so ukraine

has obviously become a big wedge issue in this election. now, according to the latest wall street journal poll, taken just a few days ago, just 35 per cent of republican voters want to send more aid to ukraine. and that's compared to 81 percent of democrats. so just over half of all american voters support more aid for ukraine still, but that's definitely being reduced to quincy institute pool last month, for example, founded over half of them. also want negotiations even if it means concessions to moscow. now as stony as former defense minister, who is now a member of the e. u. parliament is among european officials who are really worried about o g o v p victory. i sincerely hope they don't do it, but this is a wakeup call. i am absolutely convinced that europe is not doing enough. crating president library zalinski is constantly browbeating brussels, demanding that it's cash flow to him, be more like

a fire hose than the current trickle. and actually, the biden administration is apparently unfamiliar with european red tape because he can understand why that you is funding ukraine at such a slow pace. that's according to western press report. so there's a big question of what europe would ultimately do if a republican lead washington lost interest or its ability to foot most of this bill and where brussels would get the cash to pay any more of that bill. amid ongoing economic hardship induced by its own anti russian sanctions, it's all a big mystery mosque that twitter account has been spotted posting some of scandalous messages over the past hour, including some very obscene jokes as well as calls for americans to vote. republican and cheese days, mid term elections. now it's not clear. the billionaire is the one making the post or through the count as somehow being compromised. let's take a look to independent minded voters. shared power curves,

the war successes of both parties. therefore, i recommend voting for republican congress given that the president said, democratic, well, let's get some more react, centreville. they said from a daniel lazar now journalist and also many thanks for joining us on the program. daniel, it's lovely to see you now. first of all, let's start with a lawn must. how responsible is it of him if he is responsible for these messages, that is one of the influential is he is to be posting things like surging voters to vote republican. i see no problem with that. he's entitled to me can, you can speak his mind, expresses political views, urged voters to vote one way the other and voters themselves will make up their mind. i mean, americans are not stupid, they really aren't. they, they know who a lot musk is. they take everything, he says is a grain of salt and they are independent thinkers. so it's ridiculous to assume that somehow ilan must, can sway millions of voters, the simple tweet he's,

he's bound to get criticized for there. so if he is responsible for, if i was saying that there was any yes, of course there's the, there's the faction out there which believes that the social media should be heavily regulated. they're constantly throwing their hands on the air about some imaginary abuse or other. so, you know, so a lot must tweet something and they, you know, they'll probably have a collective heart attack. but it really doesn't matter. it really is just the, you know, the, we have these social media. they are free and unrestrained, or at least they should be. and i think that voters are perfectly capable of making their own minds up without having to worry about people being swayed by this information or insidious messages from people like you on musk, mid terms that some are then daniel and the worst and meddling card has already been played, we've had it before in 201620. 20. were you surprised?

know, of course, let us become a, i got a ritual of american politics or a liberal american politics, but things go wrong, blame it on russia. it's never the fault of the democratic party. joe biden is doing a great job. and if american voters disagree, the only possible explanation is that it's due to the kremlin interference. i mean, it's gotten, gotten ridiculous, so totally silly. no one believes this anymore. the card has been over played and i think that democrats are worried because they very well may be facing a real blood back tomorrow. the midterm elections are of course not about the us president for the house and the senate, some analysts to saying to folks still about one person and joe biden. what do you think is the potential read? waive really potential redway incoming, really just about boating against biden. well, i mean, yeah, i think to

a great extent, yes me biden is the, is the face attached to democratic party policies. so therefore, americans will be voting. you know, the, the policies and the man behind them up or down. i think that americans are very unhappy with the direction the country is going in. i think they're very, very frightened about where the economy is heading. they're tired of war after 30 years of ceaseless war. they're exhausted. they have not drunk the cool aid with regard to the ukraine. i think they're, they, the public is skeptical about that conflict. and so therefore, that's another reason to vote against the against biden and his policies. and what do you make if these allegations that bite and has been kept away from the so called battle ground states as part of a do no harm. strategy is probably true. i mean by buying people don't like buy

them. i can't blame them. i don't like, but i mean, i think biden as a bridle was, was awful back when he was in his prime. he was a man who was, you know, had little control over his own mouth. would say the most ridiculous things was a hawk, was the, the author of send the most punitive anti drug legislation in this country's history. and now that he's, he's getting on in years he's even worse. i mean, he has, his brain doesn't seem to be working very well. he can't, he doesn't speak very clearly and people, and he's very dogmatic and pug nations. and people don't really trust them or believe that he knows what to do about the countries many growing problems. some saying that biden's comments about shutting down coal plants in pennsylvania and may, may have caused the democrats to vote. the vote is in that state. would you agree

with that? it's possible i certainly as possible. i mean the, the climate issue is very, very important. and i think that that a sensually the country has got to move to a new form of industry. that leaves fossil fuels behind. but that's going to be done very carefully because i'm very intelligently and i think the voters have little faith and the ability of democratic party to carry it through. whichever way the vote swings that tamara, daniel, do you think people are going to take it graciously or do you think we're going to see protests on the streets? i think we'll see, protest, missed rapes. i think that what will happen is that regardless of what happens tomorrow, i think the american, the collective collective temperature will rise. americans will get angrier and angrier and we'll see more and more of a political breakdown. journalist and author daniela's army,

thanks for joining us on the program. it's always good to see you and have your insight. thank you. thank you. your opinions are paying a record breaking prices for gas and electricity. thus, despite the fuse all efforts of governments to reduce consumer costs according to relate to stay. so european household gas bills have doubled with electricity following the trend up by more than 60 percent. and so the government's pledged 550000000000 euros to offset costs to consumers. concerned politicians have not resorted to the advertisements promoting energy consumption. who was the media outlets are attempting to promote lowering the energy consumption as well. we're since the sun tabloid has proposed using alternative methods to clean

clothes, even suggest thing, they don't need frequent washing, and people should just use the vinegar to remove the odor of the laundry, or slashing the use of rush and gas has become an e u priority this year, but it seems the block is not willing to abandon all energy imports from moscow. according to europe, leading news outlet, politico, the union actually increased year on year in ports of russian liquefied natural gas by over 45 percent from january to september. journalist, the option returns these days, the e u is putting people on the altar of washington's energy market profits. the fact that the murder can he slave as a son is resorting to tell, telling british people not tell wash. as often, i mean the phrase, the unwashed masses goes from that great. dublin founder, conservatism edmund mark. and this is all gonna get worse because the european union, it's sanctions don't kick in against all russian oil for december. that's the shed you'll and february for russian, oil based products,

the old that they sacrifice the european people to is there for washington, d. c. and the united states, presumably, and believes regard as a republican or democrat sad of this week's mid terms that so the hope is there will be a huge market for american gas and energy to replace that of russia. because i have to say most of it is russian energy reserves that are stored in the gas storage tanks. they're not going to be there, according in their own policy. europe is thanks to itself, the you with that to bond, the use of a gas guzzling engines and switch to electric vehicles, all in the name of green energy. but people in some developing countries, they are being exploited to produce batteries. the europe, electric cars is what local the saying in the democratic republic of the congo which mines essential minerals for the west. plus, you know, but the western mining companies are working on our land. they came here with

promise of changing our lives by giving us good jobs. but this is not what is happening on the ground with us. besides taking our land for low prices, but we don't have jobs and we remain poor. and now they're going, forcing us to leave our own land. we cannot accept this at all. do men and women benefit from the minerals and other countries when our husbands are dying because of bad conditions due to the lack of proper jobs in the big mining companies? no one cares about our situation. western countries should do more to change our situation because they're getting too much from our minerals. one for one, but my husband died while working in the mine and the mining company hasn't given anything, not even in order to help out often, children, i cannot even afford for them to eat properly. there's no way to send them to school. d r c is the world's largest producer of cobalt which is essential for car batteries. however, critics of the green energy agenda say such batteries aren't so green after all,

as they contain hazardous muscles, which are hard to recycle and require between 6 and 12 kilograms of co boat sales of electric vehicles are predicted to increased tenfold worldwide in the coming decades independent analysts, the, our content content stays african countries need to change the mindset and start reaping the benefits of the own countries, which is buyers tend to put the rules on the table. but that's way african countries that understanding that if you process and transform locally, you're not in a rush to sell your products for survival back. exactly what's going to put the balance between east and wisdom with some countries and africa. african convent particular trying to localize the edition in africa as far as we will use to so wrote back, especially we were just actually wasting the value and the money of the continent. and now the process is being changed a little bit,

and the intention is to use more and more local direct to go on. i and other jade and trying to localize jobs and investments and the additional locally made tectonic changes. thus, i'll say a b as president asked describe the mass resignation of said officials in kosovo and protested what they call a discriminatory local law. president v church has blamed christina for the full hour and described the situation as difficult. this is neither the 1st nor the last time that serbia has been attacked on the issue of kosovo. we are certainly talking about major political, almost tech tonic changes. there is no end to the madness in pristina. and all of this is supported by 2 great powers. so the current situation has been sold by today. we had the bit of a thorough model because the resignation of serbian police officers for the new. so

yesterday, summer of the clock, $300.00 police off and police cars. i mean to resign them the 3rd year and decide that which is more and more important. 70 police officers from the ministry. the process got it and also returned their uniforms in the day or so. as of yesterday, the border crossings are entirely controlled by silly obedient police officers. and i think yesterday we had mixed controls. so you medians and serbians in the past for the course of controlling the reason the people going out from also will forget . so as of yesterday there are basically no more serbs in the police are units in the role that is in coastal police force and continued to leave other institutions such as the do so one such as the mayor also said there resigning. so you

don't have a local authorities here in the north of for so like you almost all the missional yesterday we submitted our resignations, but now i want to publicly return the mandates to you. you will like to this not pristina. the police mostly on a we got together to send a message that enough is enough of the oppression of serbs in possible in natal. he, you, people elected us not pristina causal authorities, as always, language, acquisitions, dangle or steps, or be russian proxy that are not willing to negotiate the sabbath as an factor. and that's where i mean, they don't like, you know, the reasons that led the service to this really, really hard decision believe all the confusion. so sort of it doesn't matter of

brushing enough to sit back. i'm going to go to the table and try to find some reasonable solution that would be a sample for both sides. but once again, the show is the it's not interested in something like that, but in it more prefers, as it did in the past foreseen. so now you in the lateral resumes and imposing by both force political analyst, alexander package safety e u has failed to fulfill its obligations to serbia and kosovo west as always, just dealt with christian extremely softly with kid gloves. it's just verbal pressure . ah, you know, if they really wanted christner to do something, the west can do it because priest can i in on the close while banners without western aid western. busy support and they wouldn't exist for me for more than a month. over the past 10 years, the e. u has been totally in charge of the negotiating process. and it's been totally,

it's been a total flop. it's been totally unsuccessful. so, you know, this is a sort of a crossroads. also, i must say that the western powers are using this constable. christ crisis to put additional pressure on to give government in belgrade to impose sanctions on russia because, you know, it's well known, serbia is about the only state and, and in europe that's resisting, joining the sanction because of russia. so this is also, i think, being really cynically used by the west to get therapy up to our impose sanctions on russia, turn away from both russia and china in i may be of enjoying natal for the latest news that days. you can keep an eye on our website, r t dot com and will be back at the top of the, at the very latest. ah

ah, ah. with what's truly it's essentially promise cuba play check to continue nato's proxy war against russia. businesses and consumers are now saying not so fast,

the wistfully brush would quickly collapse under the weight of sanctions. instead, it is the wealth. but if a europe facing a law ah, the united states and many western countries setting this title of good rationality . and i basically call that what the u. s. is the u. s. position visibly sanctions as a kind of mania. they keep repeating the same actions and i think they're doing this because they want to show that they still ruined the world. but in fact, every, especially against russia, every sanctioned, they have imposed, has shown as up the line. how much they don't room. ah ah,

hello, i'm manila chan you are tuned in to modus operandi there show that explores the methods and patterns of u. s. foreign policy all around the world and the history that reverberates in our lives today. this week we'll explore the conflict in ukraine and the failure to isolate after the westport and billions of dollars in aid and arms, the by net administration went on a pressure campaign to rally the global community to turn their backs on russia. was this successful? plus as the 2022 bricks virtual summit wrapped up. we learn the block may be adding an a to the group argentina now being considered for membership. we'll discuss what this means for the block as the e. you fast tracks ukraine's application to the trade union. all right, let's get in to the m. o. ah, the united states has been the number one benefactor to ukraine since the start of

the conflict on february 24th. in may, the biden administration issued its biggest lump sum approval and the amount of $40000000000.00 us dollars. so far, the u. s. has issued about $55000000000.00 to ukraine in the form of weapons land lease programs, other types of monetary aid to below tamir zalinski and his government, despite the acknowledged corruption and other scandals plaguing ukraine. meanwhile, the e u has issued roughly 1000000000 combined euros in humanitarian and military aid. while the u. k has delivered just under $2000000000.00 us dollars. as prime minister boris johnson played with g 7 leaders in late june to quote, not give up on ukraine. all this as the head of the e. u. ursula vander lay in fast tracks ukraine's application to join the block a slap in the face to turkey and reach up or to one whose country has been vying to

join the group for decades. but 1st, let's take a look at what countries have turned their backs to the u. s. in the e u, in their unconditional support of ukraine. now some of these countries have taken a position of strategic ambiguity or have decided to strengthen relations with russia instead. our international correspondent has all the details in increasingly turning russia into a garage state. if that was so at present to his plant, well, you can say it's working. russia has never been so isolated. that was back in march, when the full swing of anthea of russia hysteria was reaching its climax. but things have not gone according to plan. this map shows all of the countries who have joy on 2 sections against russia. outside of europe, north america, australia, and new zealand, the least is short. and by far a huge part of.
