ah ah ah, you as president joe biden's, democratic party is expected to clinch control of the senate after securing some crucial seats this weekend in the mid term elections. but the extremely narrow margin of the boat. god chose a country that's highly divided with western policies, are trying to weaponized the region. that's the warning of russia's foreign minister for agent on pacific countries. the summit dropped off, which states, failing to come up with a unified message. also, history thought shape the piece deal after 2 years of violence that chief through

dialogue, the government of ethiopia on the authorities from the to grey region, agree on a cease fire, an open the door to humanitarian. a delivery on russia withdraws. it's troops from the city of her soul and i made fears that ukrainian attacks on the local dumb could cause the catastrophic, with stories for the past 7 days. and right up to the moment developments as well. this is the weekly, on our team one. welcome. we begin this hour with ease from the u. s. the democrats appear to have clinched control of the senate following this week's midterm elections. as a key race in nevada is said to be called for the party with 96 percent of votes counted so that se projected blue in, in the silver states, while another close contest and highly divided our is owner, was recently north,

really decided for the democratic parties counted the su with those victories, the oper, chamber of congress is expected to remain under democratic control. but it's republicans who look said to gain a majority in the house of representatives. meaning things have gotten tougher for the by than ministration to get its policies passed. i talked all last through with ortiz fiorella, isabel. so this is a very narrow victory for democrats with 5249 in the senate. 50 for democrats. now this is because catherine cortez moscow, bested former attorney general adam like salt, giving them that lead. this is after the arizona victory and the victory of course of john federal and pennsylvania. this now may say it's less important for the georgia race which will take place in december to determine any sizeable difference because b, p harris can actually cut that tie. and in congress though, we have still a, the races going on both being counted in california, arizona,

in oregon. and of course neither party has breach. so 218 majority that is needed. and many are questioning why this red wave that was supposed to happen according to republicans did not happen in, according to many, it has to do with inflation. it has to do with the fact that perhaps voters voted against the trump in discourse. and also abortion issues were very high, young voters said come out to vote, jen z did. and of course, the other accusation is election fraud as well, even before the election freleigh defense of joe biden. i recall kim mike, he said that whatever happens essentially that he's got the answer in his office to push through certain policies that v were the veto. democrats have for a long time, been accusing half of the country being deplorable. republicans all being involved

in january 6 have been really going against a vast majority of the country and even accused rush of having hackers to undermine the election. yet, when democrats, when, then that means everything is good. and joe biden talks about exercising his use of vito power. if we lose the house and senate, it's going to be a horrible 2 years. the good news is i will have a veto pan. this is of course, with the fact that joe biden's approval rating is in the tank. i mean, according to a c, b as pull 46 percent of people think that joe biden's policies have actually hurt the economy. 52 percent trust republicans better on issues like abortion and inflation and 79 percent of the country. think that the country is out of control, which says a lot about why people don't have trust in the system. and of course, for some, this has been enough to question the integrity of the u. s. selections. let me get

this straight. 72 percent of voters say america's on the wrong track. only 42 percent say they approve of the job. joe biden is doing 58 percent say they feel more worried that america's best years, mail ready be behind us? yet? no. redway, congratulations to president biden. his rate on trump's home. the rest of pro lifers his illegal intimidation campaign against the supreme court. his censorship of opponents and threats to jail and harassment of any one who questioned his election helped steve off red wave. so we're talking about long lines. we're talking about machines that didn't work. the fact that we are still counting ballots here and of missing paper as well. there's no paper in paper. there is really no chain of custody in the united states election. so of course, this is why people are accusing this and many other countries. you get the results the day of and or the day after, at least, but democrats of trying to normalize this saying, well, this is because we have so many vote by mail ballots. so obviously the vast majority of people are not trusting in the system because they have,

they have questions as to why this is happening now. like i said this, the democratic party says this is a victory for the american people as a whole. however, they have been largely accusatory of anybody that thinks differently. anybody that has been questioning this, there's been intimidation tactics. there's been all sorts of things in the, in the election. electro was in the united states. so a lot of people are saying this is chaotic that this is embarrassing. and it seems that democrats promote democracy abroad while still having these sorts of issues at home. and what this does is it's going to lead to a tug of war in congress, both in the senate and the house of representatives where little policy work actually gets done. now as the se in summit concludes in cambodia this sunday, there's discord among attending top officials on what the traditional final statement should include. rushes foreign minister, a circular for off,

explain the stand off. you know, collective decision on a joint statement has been made because the united states and it's western allies insisted on absolutely unacceptable language regarding the situation in ukraine minister love for our father that washington. it's nato allies are seeking to weaponized asia and swell the u. s. lead military block to contain russia and china rather than support such regional organizations. as i see on the statement came of a number of western countries including a street new zealand, had also been invited to attend the c on group meeting to discuss international cooperation, global affairs analyst, john mclean. gail said global competition for power comes at the expense of security and asian. what we're looking into now is that there is a clash of not only material power, but also ideology and of course perceptions towards the order of asia as

a whole. so what we can see here is that because of this particular clash, which also aligns with the distribution of power to shift china, india, japan, russia, the united states all engaging in this particular critical hotspot, geographic hotspot, while a shooting war may not be in the works anytime soon, we have to understand that the problems that are being driven by these arrangements, these power competitions come at the expense of the security architecture of asia. and, you know, going back to the main core of these meetings will look into as young since 1960 s u. n has endeavored to maintain its centrality within the continent to ensure inclusive dialogue between and among major powers. but with what is happening now, we're looking to the erosion of that audience in trial a p. discord within the block. and at the same time,

the proliferation of exclusive arrangements for that matter and the delusion of existing multi lateral frameworks. so this becomes very problematic in terms of the security architecture of the region. after 2 years of violence, the ethiopian government and militants from the northern to gray region. this week signed a peace agreement to cease us to let these negotiations began. at the end of october, after the european army captured several major times that were previously held by the local insurgents. according to a published document, the parties agreed on the withdrawal of trips, including 4 enforces from the conflict. so in addition, they taken on a shared responsibility of protecting civilians now and ensuring their own hindered movement. a monitoring verification team form by the african unit will be established to monitor the implementation of the commitments made with what we are unable to achieve. today,

the implementation of which was due on demand and protection. told them for the moment the parties agreed on a main point not to impede the delivery of humanitarian aid. according to the u. n . at least 20000000 people in the country face at food insecurity due to the military conflict drive and high inflation as well. beyond that, 13000000 if you'll be in her, said to be in need of emergency health assistance on some 5000000 or just andre, have been displaced from their homes due to the dire circumstances. the conflict in ethiopia, northern to gray region, has raged since the start of the decade. the violence originally erupt. it when

government troops were deployed to fight the sol named people's liberation front, near the border with retreat. the fighting us to the lives of hundreds of thousands of people when we spoke to independent journalist and delay say, he said the piece still could serve. busy as an example, to resolve other regional conflicts in africa. if you'd say, for his wisdom the media have given birth about these companies, like now after the signing of the piece deal. most of the wisdom, maybe i'm not properly, i know i'm not interested in the poor thing about the fact that this is like just through a free goes away or download and she will be african probably by after weekends. so the. ready it's

a good list for the countries to avoid and love would extend interference in their own interest. because if you see the more back be interesting to accomplish, the more conflict will be worse and it takes into a different angle in a different direction. bricks is building algeria, africa was largest natural gas exporter has become the latest country to applies, become part of the block, the algerian foreign ministry, formerly submitted membership documents with a bid warmly received by moscow and beijing. the alliance of recently garnered increasing interest with argentina. they're run already applying to join the likes of turkey or egypt and saudi arabia stating their desire to be a part of it all as well in tedious get. the more interest in with global association is very, very high and continues to grow. it's not just sol gere argentina and iran,

in fact there are more than a dozen such countries. bricks is an international trade association, comprising right now of 5 major emerging economies, brazil, russia, india, china, and south africa. the total g d. p of its members is some $27.00 trillion dollars with a population in those countries of $3200000000.00 people around 40 percent of the globe. and other words, the group appears align to competes with the western lead g 7 group of economies, which i say g d p o, $45.00 trillion dollars, but a much smaller total population of around 775000000. we heard from an jury and information communication, academic who sees the north african country and tends to play a major role in the bricks grouping and also as emissions to curb. the unipolar world order promoted in the west was because of the position of him in the, in africa, as was in the word besides that, as you just mentioned,

that we have so many port sharla. well, so surely the economy gets political don't show anything more than that because of the, the historical and the 40 because i'm the ideal where they should be read the sy in shop or that's come to the days of the dip. i'm gonna give you that we expect a lot more than that. i want to get them. i hit the ball and that is of the said, we want to have to get out of the stuff. and i want you to be to the what or do we want to have the voice, the voice. and that is, that is the one that i think we aspire to play a role within the brakes. and the brakes and such is that it's part of the union role that i'm getting is that the are not you baran to india and so much.

and that was a 3rd. of course we have the position right now all i shot both . i think i'm. busy to some extent is yeah, they want to have it say in the word they don't let the you on the when companies usa, vice, it also this week, russia completed withdrawing its troops from the city of her son and other locations on the right bank of the epr river, the defense ministry sees it's being dawn to avoid potential unnecessary losses among troops amid the dangerous printing attacks could destroy this local dom and also affect areas around here as well. the decision was explained by the commander heading rushes operation. but it was lawyer, maybe somebody, somebody anthem the enemy is firing randomly at the city. for this reason, it was decided to evacuate the population from the right side of the river. we provided everything possible to ensure the evacuation the plans of the enemy to

create flooding of territories to can lead to dangerous consequences. this is confirmed by the constant shilling of the hob sky, hydro electric power station. under these conditions, the most appropriate option is to organize defenses along the line of the denise river. catastrophic flooding was predicted, if ukrainian forces had succeeded in destroying the dom. the high water would also have complicated supply routes which were being used to deliver food to the russian army, as well as local residents. while eliminating the town would also jeopardize fresh water supplies to neighboring crimea, to reduce the danger to civilians, russia has been evacuating tens of thousands of local residents from the her son region on its capital. in recent weeks to this place, people i've been given military need and are being transferred well at behind the front lines. now a new line of defense has been established in the region while the m. o. d also disclose this week that this number up to 90 percent of incoming ukrainian rocket

attacks had been intercepted. moscow also said that the ukrainian army had lost around $12000.00 soldiers last month, some 8 times more than russian losses. we spoke to former us marine corps intelligence officer scott ritter seized up by relocating groups. russia has deprived ukraine of its pretext for destroying the if russia remained on the right bank and continued to defeat ukrainian attacks the ukrainians. once their forces spent might come to the conclusion that the only hope they have in preventing a rushing counter attack is to destroy the dam and flood the region. so i think this is a, a prophylactic move on the part of the russians to prevent the ukrainians trying to have justification for blowing up the damn. and the russians have been preparing for this by evacuating the civilian population and critical infrastructure. so it's not like the russians just made this up. the russians have been pointing out for

some time now of the risk that is accrued by any forces and civilians. imagine next, let's say the russians didn't evacuate and next week the damage is struck by ukrainians . and has breached now the russian leadership has to explain why they didn't evacuate, why they didn't get the civilians out of the way, why they didn't get the russian service members either way, if they thought it was a possibility, why didn't they take the appropriate actions? ah, well, russian soldiers who aren't often deployed for come back to the are the nuclear biological and chemical defense forces, not military bronze markets anniversary on sunday, but didn't take the day off and that they've been conducting large scale drills in western russia. r t, sophia nunez, watch them in action. you cite similar desperate attempts by the west, the swipe your brains, by a lap, sorry, under the rock. the dangers of their existence are allegedly still fragile,

and not just for russia buckles entire world, especially given the conditions those labs have been operating in large scale. neil ok, we're drills of the russian nuclear, biological and chemical defense forces. i can also day, some 300 kilometers from moscow near they see their office gamma and their relevance of the van. can that be more clear and present? ah, hundreds of troops and thousands of special military equipment units are involved in the military exercises. today, we're going there right now to give you an inside loop in this massive military drills. the exercises are dedicated to the annual day of the russian nuclear, biological and chemical defense forces. a branch of the army established more than

a century ago by the soviet military council to counter chemical weapons threats since then it has been expanded and now also covers nuclear. in biological defense, these soldiers assimilating some of the harshest battle conditions they could one day face. today's schedule include their firing of flame throwers, intelligence gathering, and difficult weather, and geographical conditions and other elements of advanced combat training. a flame thrower is a powerful weapon. it's proven to be very good in the conduct of combat operations in cities. here we train military personnel to carry out assault operations. these drills we sanitize the military equipment and the personnel who arrived from the contaminated areas where we use a lot of weapons during the exercises. we train hogs, the preparation is very intensive. we have learned a lot in today's unpredictable and eccentric world. everything seems possible,

but these guys seem to be prepared to handle everything that comes their way. wanted to fit in this next story as well. before we go to break the world's leading recycling organization, plastic bank sees it's will address the alarming rise of pollution, of the ongoing comp 27 climate conference, not africa as hard as had by that has been become a gigantic dumpsite. really for plastic waste sent there from western countries are 2 corresponding co rabo little to brave, the mountains of rubbish to bring us the story. plastic is ubiquitous. it fills our air, land, and oceans and landfills like this are full of it from my this current tooth brushes, shoes, clothes, tv, rim olds, you name it, it's a plus big world, but africa is faring better than is global counterparts. and according to the u. n

. environmental program, the continent produces the least amount of global plastic waste and most of our ways is also organic. so where does this come from? when eva, people talk about blessing input, the city to south africa, the only being economically necessitated as for the county environmental, the best is not even be discussed at the stage. 20 companies are said to be responsible for more than half of the global single used plastic waste. and none of them are in africa. and according to the 2021, plastic waste makers index in the global north that produces and creates the global plastic use crisis. an average american or a united kingdom citizen will produce about a 100 kilograms of plastic waste annually. now, what responsibility do they,

bay to this global wasteland they've created? this is mainly supposed to be enough at the county. oh, because we don't death most of the blessings that be supposed to have in south africa to make products. some africans have come up with a plan. then i'm with sarah works with the can sign is collections, and not for profit company in the education space. they turn plastic into briggs and the softness, plastic, from where ever we can get it at times. even buttoning with locals in exchange for stationary and such items, plastic that would otherwise be filling the air, polluting the water systems, and causing diseases. when people bend plastic in the community because they've got no way to damp it, it causes in people breathe it. it causes type 2 diabetes,

it causes cancer and it also causes aging. so those are the main hazards that one can think of. but besides that, it, when it goes into our water, it also causes our problems is fire is water. animals our content like your fish and things like that. and then when they eat the plastic, we end up eating that fish and they did end up affecting us as well. from hill to point of your plastic is cut into smaller bits and is put into a 2 liter bottle and the must all way between 550 and 600 grams. and before you know it, viola, you have a school, and soon there will be a bigger one here with a science lab, as well as toilets. and it will all be run on solar power, all in an impoverished community, but also builds by that same community for, for as what is important is plastic is going to affect everyone in the world. so

what we're doing here is we're inviting different communities from different areas to come in, lynn, what we are doing, give them the same skills that we have got and then they go back in, they do the same in their own areas. so far we've got 5 communities that we've identified that will be training and then helping them also to set up a similar environment like ours africans as solving their own problems. and the mess that was caused by the global not. and is these kinds of solutions that must be echoed and the you and cob, $27.00 climate change conference. and maybe just maybe those who pollute must pay the lute for the clean bill. carmella had to 40 in johannesburg. i do stay with our team because a quite extraordinary story is till next. john daly, an ex, new nazi skinhead, fled from the u. s. to israel in the ninety's, now for his own gun, attempted to murder him for being jewish or documentary team explores his life

since then. an escape from the ne. ah ah ah ah oh, when i was showing wrong,

when i just don't hold any world to see how this thing becomes the advocate, an engagement equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart, we choose to look so common ground. i wanted to go and pay my respects on all those who lost or license the hands of the 3rd. right. and i wouldn't want to do it with anybody other than john honestly, no horrible atrocities that affected millions and millions of v. and this is the audiology that i, that i live 5 or 4 years and what is turning the since it's harder than mine being jewish had something to turn to. he didn't, he left something that was like a family type relationship and move back into the real world. living in israel,

he finally feels at home and he feels like he's with his people and a leading with his. i know that that's something i'd like to feel in life. you know, i'd like to feel that i do belong to something and i have something to look forward to and i have something to believe. i'm not sure what it's going to be based, extend myself to be a real american patriot, but i don't like the direction that my country is going a whole lot. right. i will let my young with them because it was here with earlier full then overwhelmed with emotion, started shaking, embed, and as i went to laboratory a few moments ago, i get sick. wow. going to the camp. it

makes it. it's like putting in a face with a name. it's no longer, you know, old reels that you see on t v programs and documentaries written by some guy who wasn't there on the page from history book. it's real numbers doing what you can to fix the world, the best of your ability, etc, starts with you and the way that you live or you are which what you're doing now is a line be going back and fixing some of the wrongs you can at one point stop it. that's enough. things need to be different and they do more than 1500 years when prison is small fortress, their destiny was worst of all. the groups of prisoners, about $500.00 from them were tortured to death. here most others perish after the deportation to the concentration camps. 1600 people of the jewish faith died there . i found it hard to believe from the nazis were really avid, in real getters,

transit hands as well. they were coming merely coming in to wait for the training to go on the dog house. so the more house this was just me, a stop on their voyage. what you wrote in the the book, i guess book. what did you write? i'm sorry. i wanted to come the roommate team do they seem to judaism and play with the way that we count the number a letter that we know exactly i wanted to remain team was that the mortuary, where the buyer is, the person who's torture for story. starting at the end of 42 dead bodies were cremated in terms crematorium in the form of the jewish ghetto.
