ah ah, the headlines on off into national the russian ministry of defense says its troops have crossed the napa river to take off the defensive positions on the left bank of the waterway. following an announcement, all the strategic re, quote, a un official admit she has no evidence but says russian soldiers were using by ad growth rate, ukrainian, or greeting. she was simply told this by some ukrainian officials a time to make a clean break. the leader of a socialist party of zambia tells us here at r t, that colonial park still hangs very heavily on the continent and it's holding it.

they have an elite and then pretty good to go to somebody that is destroying the planet. yes, it has destroyed the planet. they have nothing to do a night. we have been treated that's live. we have been you may get to get with . oh, i slowly walking away into friday night here on the russian capital. this is our t international just after 6 pm here in between. now start, but some of the very latest from the ukranian conflict. and of course, the current focal point is that all the song region, the russian defense ministry says all the troops have been successfully regrouped now to the left bank of the de napa river. i said some of the late has not without a correspondent, sophia, today,

the russian defense ministry and now is that it finished regrouping its troops to the left bank over the nap or river in harrison region. according to the ministry, all units of armed forces have taken up defensive positions and that no military equipment or weapons were left behind. also also the lands who wished to leave the right bank were assisted in the evacuation. in an attempt to disrupt the process, the ukrainian forces launched dozens of highmark rockets at the places the river crossings, the 28th of which were shut down by the russian air defense systems and 5 for the flex it from the regional targets. by means of electronic warfare, the re positioning comes off to an earlier announcement to withdraw from that side of the river in order to will save troops on the ground and of course protect that is the local population. for example, it was in response as your say to concerns that had the whole sky a dime upstream could be blown up by ukrainian force is ultimately causing a deluge. meanwhile, ukrainian officials claimed that the troops have already entered the city of song.

also, according to multiple media reports the and tunnel, the bridge that crosses that the napa river has been disabled. reporters at the scene say 2 sections of the main bridge were below not believing the crossing and operable. as of now, the russian ministry of defense has not commented specifically on vast. meanwhile, a chechen battalion stationed on the frontline in the loop and republic. it's been using a system of trenches and artillery, so essentially protect the ever from attacks and getting up close and personal with them is our senior correspondent is more against the this is, am matt battalion, thousands upon thousands of it's fighters are stationed along some of the deadliest sectors of the front lines, and this is no exception. out of the gulf where now in the vicinity of children,

up up up can you criminal this is the new frontline has the stabilizer, the front line. there are multiple layers of defense line fields, trenches bonkers as well as mobile reserves all over the place. rushes pulled back from havoc of region following ukraine successful counter attack only and did hear the ukrainian military and nationalist groups have been unable to break through. daniel, naturally, when we 1st arrived there was nothing here, just a few dugouts. they attacked then and tried to cut us off to keep us hold up under cover. i don't know where they were firing from, but everything they had, they scented us and cut off, but they couldn't get through. no, they were unable to, breakthrough digging is survival. how deep and how quickly you and trench dictates whether you leave or die.

there has never been a conflict like these where no bombers can fly, where drones rule the sky and see everything night and day guiding barrages of artillery at the nearest sign of movement or heat signature. a silent war fought between the east and the west, or group of there aren't many ukrainians, mostly foreign mercenaries. for example, poles and germans. val are boys hear them. they mostly work in trios of tankless mortars and drones from the shelves and mortar rounds flying overhead. there's very little to do for infantry in a situation such as this other than keep watch in case ukrainian infantry decides to press forward, ah, e ina, in a mass mobilized attack from what we understand. they currency don't have the

necessary manpower, the necessary vehicles, ammunition stores to push forward. so the situation, he has turned into something of a standstill with just artillery jewels by local standards. this was considered quiet when things heated up. however, temporarily we would rush to the closest dug out with with no, i flat battalion has come a long way once made up almost exclusively of chechen foot has. now he concludes all ethnicities and creeds still answerable to check lead of rams and could thereof, a band of just a few 1000 has grown to an army of tens of thousands hardened into

veterans by merciless battles, the streets of mary. you poo city fields and forests of east and south ukraine. work for gordon. the enemy is well prepared. there are many foreign mercenaries. you can hear yourself. mercenaries are firing at us, but we are holding our positions thinking ahead and we've got everything we need. thanks to could europe in our commanders more, i'd gasdio haughty from the gun, screeching our time for a really disturbing story here. a naughty international law, less than a month after, alleging that russian soldiers have been supplied with viagra to rape ukrainians. the united nations special representative on sexual violence has now admitted she hasn't seen any evidence to corroborate her claims as get details. now, artes fiorella is about joining us here in the studio on this story. great to see you today. shame is under such a tragic story. here,

it's quite an admission farewell of from this un official and not exactly backing the comments that she's made in the past. right, exactly. so for a long time, i un, ah, the you and rap priscilla patton. put up the story that russian soldiers were using by agra to rape women as a military tactic. it turns out that what she said is untrue, or at the very least she has admitted to, to pranksters who were posing as the head of the ukrainian foreign affairs committee. that she has no evidence and it's not within our jurisdiction. so let's take a look. that information was important to me in the presence of the deputy prime minister if i miss, you know, and, and the deputy minister of foreign affairs. good. you did not make any investigation about via something, but it's not mine. it's not my job to make it,

and i do not have the monday. i sit in new york in an office in new york. my rule is not to investigate the investigation is going on by the human rights monitoring team and the international commission of inquiry in their report so far there is nothing about about by so she's basically admitting that she's just repeating these talking points given to her by ukrainian officials and that she has no evidence of this. and of course, a lot of what russia has been saying has been denying these claims. but i mean, her thing, it's not her job. it's almost like she's washing her hands out of all of this. right. so why do you need to say such things? that sounds so repulsive and so far fetched from reality. and, you know, like complete b s, well, they want to align russia, they want to undermine russia. they want the public to negatively perceive russia in that sort of strategy that helps the west. it's always so difficult here

relative to get the truth when you've got a conflict happening in ukraine, for example, in the fog of war as they say. but what bothers me so much about this story and you can go back to like, for example, the bombing gives up what nuclear power plant or the north stream pipelines as well . you always have a certain narrative playing a certain standard offender. and the problem, as far as i'm concerned, fiorella is by the time the truth actually comes out, the official narrative has already seeped into the public consciousness. now, this is not the 1st time the claims in the war i've been called out. i mean for example, one, if i remember correctly, there was one ukrainian official louis miller, dennis. so by denise, if i who's even fired it, was she for making similar or more outrageous claims? was it or right. and she was eventually fired. but not till after these lies were decimated. right. like as you said, rory, the problem is none. nobody fights park texas because they take the ukrainian intelligences word and she admitted that lude miller did. she admitted that she basically fabricated these lies because she was requested to do so by ukrainian

intelligence and in fabricating these why she absolutely did no fact checking. and of course she, she was in a position where she's supposed to look into these stories and she failed to do so . i mean, he, another example is they were fabricating that there were concentration camps put out russian or ukrainians. they were also talking about raping of women of violence against women. and none of these accusations had any sort of verification to them. i mean, this is something where, where that has been happening a lot during this whole conflict and the western media did not care. they went on with these lies and of course she later admitted. and so but did that she was spreading this fake news. and it's funny because she was also prank by the same people. so let's take a look at what they actually got out of her. you go, i'm what they told me, can you write that there is a prison at this oper, ozi a nuclear. you visual media sources are supposed to say this?

oh, well, no more. the on the men didn't want to say it to. he only says what the president's office tells him to be in baltimore. but i'm being asked to say this by the authorities by intelligence. my you know, if you're ready, you talk about, you know, the so called allegations of these russian concentration comes in ukraine. i mean, it's almost like that they're pulling stories out of out of the last great world war because there was another one, wasn't there about russian soldiers pulling out ukrainians? gold teeth. yeah, you can see how these stories are extremely random and exaggerated. that story was also debunked. there was no evidence of course western media went on to report it as if it was facts and it was the bunk by these german journalists. let's take a look at what, what they said. these are saying, if i could, these crowns have come from dead people? my god, i know they come from people i have treated all those years. i took the streets out

because they were battling over the course of 30 years. i remove tens of thousands of young. this is just a fraction of so as we can see, the vast majority, if not all of the stories that have been framed in and have frame, the russian negatively have all been debunked, either by pranksters or by the media itself. and what we have seen in the us from, from a la patent isn't anything new. the un current rep in 2011 susan rice used the same exact tactics. in fact, a similar story about soldiers into duffy's army using by agra to rape women. now it was done in 2011 similar lines have been peddled about iran, if the my and mar. so we can see the strategy by the west. and there envoys in the un to fabricate these stories to negatively portray their enemies in a certain way. and it's really unfortunate, but the good thing is they are being debunked. well, again, the, as you say,

rather it falls into the whole mainstream narrative of all of demonizing, russia at the end of the day. because that's essentially what has been going on for such a long time. now, you know what i never see though, when the truth does come out fear rela, about any list of the stories we talk about here with archie. i never see any retractions in the western media. i never see them saying, oh we had erroneous information. let's clear that up. they just let it go. they don't want to have the other side come out. do they know that was your reactions and i appreciate your work on this fairly isabel. oh, it's good to see you please. and thank you while the developed world is suddenly turning back to nuclear power, that's one of the main takeaway so far from the un climate change conference ongoing in egypt. at the push it's happening despite criticism of africa's own efforts to develop atomic power. and it's so it's for reliable and affordable energy. let's get the scoop on this. now. some of the final details to africa correspondent, catabolic following last year's united nations climate change conference in class

gold. 17 african countries expressed an interest in acquiring nuclear at the base load to support its people and economy. a move that was not embraced by the rich west the nations or their financial institutions. but they stand here now for the 1st time ever had a you and climate change conference, this one happening in egypt as club 27. nuclear is not only back on the agenda, but it has its own pavilion. so what's changed? well, there was a super critical because who actually told that nuclear is a no go, you know, and it's a source and should not even be pursued on by any closer comes. suddenly we hear that the western countries are now actually pursuing nuclear, viciously u. k. s. would not be on the table, nor have france that is expanding his nuclear base. you have germany that is actually now looking at even building up nuclear plants and expanding his current

capacity. so we, we, singer hypocritical, starnes, but western hypocrisy is nothing new to most africans. earlier this year we saw european lead as rushing for africa, fossil fuels, while preaching the exact opposite message to africans. and in august, south africa's coal exports to europe. we're up 720 percent and they have not even picked yet. and it's the same story for the north african natural gas exports to europe. which leads many africans to ask. the question, is climate change only a concern when it suits the global? not so much as a crisis, only when it suits the you know, you know, the western, candice particularly as for certain the global not which is currently being the dominant player on pushing full time at change mitigation. but we are not seeing any aspect of actual insured in that article which is currently the list. meet us is actually given priority of developing

a snotty asset as ensuring that we can have nuclear capacity bays, and more from all and a source of almost all africans are affected by the lack of reliable bays load energy. every single day. african countries needs to be very decisive. we need the industrialization of the development, and we need a really robust energy solution, which in this only case we're nuclear, is the only solution available right now. an african culture should be pursuing naughtier solutions viciously and ensuring that they can stand independently, en, because of the pollution that has been caused by many western countries. this would actually be making sure that african countries are not punished for something that didn't cost. and when south africa wanted to pursue more nuclear in 2015 west than financial institutions, had closed the tabs on funding it. but now, 7 years later, it themes, the tabs are opening again. last time were south africa,

could have used to plan to has building more nuclear power stations, as well as reducing their emissions side. i think as an added country doesn't have water. when you have you clear, then you're also answer the issue of water provisions because you can then successfully de saline. that is a direction we should be growing, but nuclear so regulated that there's an ingredient of time on how long it will take for you to commission nuclear. so the longer we delay to actually commence with nuclear installation, the more we're gonna put this country in a state of our less that development. it is not only about renewables is really about cleaner and less emitting technologies. and nuclear is, is one big sauce of a low cabinet, a power so we should leave it on the table. africa's energy demand is projected to grow by 80 percent by the year 2040 and 4 people on the ground reliable,

consistent, and affordable energy is more important before any talks of emissions. especially in the face of what themes like energy apartheid. but as they did when south africa needed them politically, the west is yet again showing its craft the double speak and climate hypocrisy. god . i believe that philosophy and john is back. what me time, the president of the socialist party of zambia chimed in on the subject, saying african nations need to be able to decide their own destiny. free from out side interference. in terms of presenting the planets in tim's awful global warming. they have destroyed the planets we will load to because of all actions, but to their actions. they have an unleashed and unprecedented consumerism that is destroying the planet. deafness, beautiful prophets has destroyed the planets. they have nothing to teach us. we

have been in court all night. we have been treated then slims. we have been humiliated for over 600. yes. the forms changed continually, but the content of the exploitation of the humiliation is the same. we help to put an end to this if we have to have a better world in more just mafia more human world, they don't understand that. or if they do it, they don't want it. nicholas, they want to ment in their lives bit i don't expense into going to continue forever . there has to be a time when that ins we're going to continue to be at the us. it's well, meanwhile, uganda's president has called out the double standards of green energy. after reports, germany is actually dismantling a wind farm to make way for an expansion of an open pit. coal mine. now,

with the europe reinvesting its own fossil fuel power industry to bring mach ball power plants back on line. in a truly perverse twist, we are told new western investment in african fossil fuels is possible, but only for oil and gas resources that will be piped and shipped to europe. this is the purest parker. see what the president's words came. i made a long standing dispute over that of the east african crude oil pipeline right here . it's a joint project by both the uganda and tons india. now it plans to stretch around 1500 kilometers, starting up to lisa at the top of the map. all the way down to the port city of kanga project would help you guys capitalize on his hefty oil reserves. supply. other countries also through the towns and he and seaport, and potentially help to even stabilize oil prices in the region. and the project launch by the french oil dry and total energy as our post criticism from the

parliament over alleged environmental and human rights violations. the block hold on the international community to pressure you gander, and continue to stop building them mutual pipeline. the international energy agency, the previous be said, the global climate goals will not be met if numerous fossil projects not stopped well, but the africa and the legislative assembly though, is ignoring external pressure. as we understand it's according to the enterprise to go full steam ahead. do you, parliament is all the legislative, what they should do is go back to the you and focus on the issues that a fact that people of the european union will cruise in place on the street. and you can see how the locals feel about this. this has never been a better loyal list of the western concept of extractive industry like my head of state. but today screaming the french when that something of national interest is at stake. i've always had 3 questions. the issue of sovereignty. who owns it?

our democracy or bears? who owns africa? is it still the loopholes of this world over the past? ought to be we gaining independence. i feel these guys envious of us, that we don't have glassdoor, natural resources when they come, they really need to sub process. if we never come to an understanding of owning ourselves, then we shall always be running on someone's finger drops and tapes, you know. so we need to make that choice of moving forward. we don't have to wait for someone to tell us what to do or not to do. yeah, we have to leave like that as his as of leave like that. i do not really understand wave in our placement is writing someone telling them you are hypocrite, he let him be any pl. quick 2. we also got the chance to us be to the south africa nuclear power. i forgot i missed a kelvin kemp, who believed it's vital the continent has given a chance to develop its own program of nuclear energy. african countries have the

strength to think for themselves and do what's in their own interest for, for too long. we've been prepared to accept solutions coming from europe that might or might not work in europe often they don't even take to work well day. and they come here on the assumption that al conditions was similar to the same as this and then not, not any of the sizes of the countries different they, for very long power lines from the case electricity, long delivery lines. it's dry here. we have nowhere near the rain that they've got this numbers of things that are different. so we've got to start resisting this attitude of they know what's good for them, therefore must automatically be good for us. and therefore, we must do as we told in africa, we produce a little carbon dioxide. we should not be bullied into being major players in reducing carbon dioxide. we make a tiny difference in comparison, some of the much bigger place in the world. and in doing that,

it would be highly detrimental to people, the people that need electrification. we need electricity to, to build the economy in advance economy. we cannot be made to be the victims of other people's strange ideas. ah, so could i have your company tonight for this program or the e. u is being increasingly drawn into the war in you crying? well, that's the view of the hungarian precedent. who set the block for shortly, bit of siding, how much money to send the key as a way yet a again, i was just asking sally 3 in the european union fuss decided to supply weapons, but 1st only non lethal. and then the, you began to supply lethal weapons. now he, the, according president is training ukrainian military personnel on the territory of european countries. and in the next coming days, we're going to decide the financing button of maintaining the ukranian economy. thus, we're getting more and more involved in this conflict. european leaders have repeatedly stated that the e u is not a party to the ukraine conflict back in may,

for example, french president emanuel michael said, quote, we are not at war with russia. we work as europeans for the preservation of the sovereignty and territorial integrity of ukraine. although my call is always talking about being at war with every policy problem. on the other hand, he was at war with cove id. he said that he was at war with climate change earlier this week, and he's repeatedly evoked a war economy, which is kind of a weird thing to say if you're not actually involved in a war. right. so a hungarian prime minister, victor, or bon, is like the bouncer at the casino. he just stepped in and blocked the used gambling of another 18000000000 euros on ukraine. yet german foreign minister anna lena bear block said that or bon was the one quote, playing poker. it's read the e u, this play naked poker here. and it's currently down to its boxer shorts. but that didn't stop the blocks chief diplomat yo's that burrell from ramping up rhetoric at

a clump for it's dealing with you defense mobility. we need to adapt our mobility system for our troops to be able to transport and deploy quickly all their military capacities. for example, it takes at least 5 days for across border transport of a military capacity from one country to another. that is to, along 2nd, that european defense agency will take forward the work on cross border movement, permissions and custom formalities, establishing and network for smart logistics. 3rd, we have to work closer with our partners. the 1st one, nato. nato's cooperation has to be intensified, but also with partners. so what's the point of talking about urgent troop movement and logistic movement around europe went just a few months ago, burrell himself was talking about how the block would run out of ammo in 2 weeks. if it was ever involved in actual war, maybe the mobility were, can get troops to just, you know, run really fast when they're out of ammo. friends, president mack hole just pulled up the drawbridge on francis military mission

operation buff can in this a hell region of africa this week. after being kicked out of molly earlier this year, but that hasn't stopped mac haul from talking tough on french and european defense at home. we must re learn how to mobilize the vital forces of our country to serve our sovereignty. our nuclear forces contribute through their own existence to the security of france and europe. so don't look at what just happened in africa. pay attention to what's happening in europe are ramping things up here. apparently, macro recently included influence operations as a main focus of frances new military strategy. which just seems to be a way to use military grade tools and tactics to protect the establishments. narrative, kind of like what the canadian government did when a deployed afghan war propaganda tools on canadians to influence public opinion during the cove it pandemic. so european officials are having a bit of a war drum jam session with each other these days. a french security and defense chief is even outspoken. the pessimistic about the odds of avoiding

a direct conflict. the rupture introduced by the war and the reverse ability of russia. strategic choices make it necessary to anticipate a confrontation with moscow. it's really hard to figure out what the you is trying to get out of talking tough on war when it's about the last thing that they need or the european citizens need right now. or let's get some news not coming out of the crypt world. maybe you know this or not, it's pretty big. the f t x exchange the now it's entering bankruptcy proceedings off the industry. giant biden's decline to be able to come to its rescue. have a look as a result of corporate due diligence, as well as the latest news reports regarding mishandled customer funds and alleged us agency investigations. we have decided that we will not pursue the potential acquisition of f t x. the collapse of the deal for the price, a bit coin hit

a 2 year low wave other platforms following us regulators of raise concerns about the f t x exchange. and the firm's reported miss management of client assets. the reports of the company's financial health reportedly triggered get this $6000000000.00 worth of withdrawals in recent days. and we discussed that the current state of crypto woes with expert christopher like any nathan industry. it's an industry that is vastly under regulated, which is a very actually big issue for the industry. it's an industry that a lot of governments don't understand which also causes problems because in order to regulate you have to understand and what we've seen here. and we've seen previously the 1st have a big crypt to exchange crushed with from exchange called mountain calls, which is monumental. this one is actually a lot bigger, but at that time people thought the world was over and you're completely right if you've ever read mr. tow she white paper on bitcoin, the entire idea was to build.
