is so dangerous, is it the law, the sovereignty of the country? or is business and business is good? and that is the reality of what we're facing, which is fashion. with not load the oil in, not the world war note to cold, more rhetoric. this is a message at the g 20 summit opening as western members keep calling to further isolate russia over the conflict. a new braid and moscow continues to increase its cooperation with emerging world economies. the un general assembly adopt a resolution on russian war, reparation to you brain with dozens of member states abstaining or voting against the initiative in the biggest fall in support for ukraine related resolution. since

the start of the war with dr. schiff, public dries, meeting less and less of support in the united nations. it is being shaped as there is a national, ukrainian subject. but everybody understands that this is about stealing russian assets. the west must take responsibility for its oil polluting activity. that's the call at the top $27.00. you and climate change conference with africa blaming industrialized nations for today's the climate crisis on the continent. with good morning for martine or national studios in moscow on pure isabel with this ours top news stories from around the world happy could join us growing tensions and a lack of solutions. tuesday marks the opening day of the g. 20 summit in indonesia

. the world is watching to see whether leaders will be able to agree on a joint statement as divisions deep in over the conflict and ukraine. the speaking at the opening of the meeting, the indonesian president, the host of the summit called on members to prevent another cold war. as a conflict in ukraine shows no sign of abating. we should not fight the worth into pop. you must not a low and the world fall into and not the world war we must and the war. if the war does not end, it will be difficult for the world to move forward and turn the indian prime

minister warned against promoting any restrictions on energy supplies and called for ensuring stability of the market. this comes as this year summit has already seen calls from western members to isolate russia. nevertheless, moscow's cooperation was developing g 20 nation, including india and china continues to grow our teeth. maria, fin ocean, reports from bali. as the summit stars hearing volley, the question rises, what can we expect at its end? the main intrigue of these here is de twenties. whether the members will at all be able to come to come from ice to consensus over the final declaration as the group is torn apart, unprecedented to lead by enormous divisions within the group. over how to approach russia, ukraine conflict, the head of the global gather in the german, tend to look, pushed and cold on the nations for in isolation of russia. here,

add this some mail or rather more isolation because that is what the west has been exercising for months now with endless packages of economic sanctions against russia. but it didn't seem to be working and even seems to have the opposite effect as the economies of the united states and western europe are now projected to be declined to with the near full decade, high inflation and rocket and prices for food and energy due to end to russia, economic sanctions. they in fact initiated while india and china. that's russia logically, trends and ties and corporation we've after been pushed towards the east and isolated by the west, are on the opposite to become the world's leading economists in the near future. and they seem to only increase trade with russia, some impressive figures for you in the last, in the 1st 8 months. so base here, china is investment in russia showed 150 percent increase compared to the last year

and multiply. and b gene are planning to invest. another $1300000000.00 in joint project, russia, india, bilateral trade, another 130 percent growth in september compared to last year and also ra. she's now emerging has induced top energy supplier in october after the meeting with the russian foreign minister last tuesday. he's ain't encounter forward sad that buying oil from russia would be to del, is huge interest and advantage. it is hard fundamental obligation to ensure that the indian consumer has the best possible lexus on the most should want to just comes to international market on industrial aspect of quite honestly, we have seen that a d in the other chart relationship has worked to advantage and other countries want to join breaks and walk of leading developing countries continues expanding

its political and of course, financial influence with all g rear argentina and iran. now applying saudi arabia, egypt. i've got a son in turkey, you're very much interested along with indonesia that is expected to make a formal application to join here at the g 20. if accepted ricks would become an entity with a g, d p 30 percent larger than the united states. and in control of 30 percent of global gas reserves, no wonder why the west is so pure is and is desperately looking for an escape goat . russia is trying to succeed the global economy. we must join together to stop them in their tracks and restore economic stability at the g. 20 leaders need to step up to fix the weaknesses in the international economic system, which putin has exploited for years. that is actually ironic to hear these allegations as a was the west decision to hobble russian economy by sanctions. but why, when

a didn't go as when the west was quick to blame russia for the collage solve the global economy and, and now it seems the u. s. and the u. k. have come up with a perfect plan. how to avoid any responsibility for the economic crash, the ras, or a good talking now is the economy will not recover unless the war and restrictions have only been growing. and now, when the western nations are at the data and let's wait and see where the g 20, these here may be able to find to bring any solution. almost half of you and member states abstained or voted against the resolution adopted by the general assembly calling on russia to pay war reparations to ukraine, co sponsored by the united states and its allies. the resolution received the lowest level of support for ukraine related motions since the conflict began.

94 countries supported the initiative to hold moscow accountable for violating international law. while 14 nations, including china, voted against the resolution claimant, lack sufficient, legal basis, $73.00 states among them, india and brazil chose to abstain. we spoke to demetrius polio and gave russia the deputy ambassador to the un who said the resolution lacked a legal basis. the nature of these initiatives, it's not about you crate it. it is being shaped as a resolution on ukrainian subject, but everybody understands that this is about stealing russian assets about some illegal move which is being contemplated in the hands of some western politicians. and it's very difficult to conceal these tools. that's why all the countries that we're considering the draft. so they were absolutely mindful of these double layers

of this resolution. and of course, they were understanding that by prioritizing ukrainian, the crisis once again, a risk to put all the other issues on the agenda of united nations in kind of say me, i believe in. and this is a very dangerous times, which is not up held by a lot of member states, as you see from the results of the whole team. well, some un member states consider them move illegal. others are called western interventions and colonial exploitation, which never yielded reparations and justice. our teeth kayla up and explains is certainly significant because since the ukraine conflict escalated, there has certainly been an effectiveness on the part of the united states and mobilizing the world to condemn russia not today. as the vote took place, it became very clear that a number of countries just were not comfortable with this resolution. there were 16

countries that signed a statement pointing out that there are a number of countries around the world that have suffered illegal invasions sanctions, attacks, slavery, colonialism, and that those countries are certainly entitled to reparations. and can talk about iraq. you can talk about vietnam, korea. 2 other countries and those countries have not yet received any reparations for the crimes committed against the, by the united states or it's western allies. however, the reparations should be carried out on a sound legal process. not simply through these resolutions that are just presented randomly to the general assembly. now, the russian ambassador to the u. n. a ben zia he took to the podium and he pointed out that a number of countries simply don't want to go along with what appears to be an attempt to justify the outright daft of russian assets around the world. he also

pointed out that the entire basis through which this is being carried out doesn't fit with un procedures. decisions like this should be made by the un security council, not the general assembly body where the united states took this resolution. here is some more of what the russian ambassador had to say about today's resolution shibley's trooping. so you are inferior already of this initiative is obvious from a legal point of view, the provisions of the draft to not stand up to any criticism or legally no. and void, it's an attempt to legalize what can't be legalized from the point of view of current international law uses. this is a classic example of the concept of rules based order when a group of states does not act on the basis of international law, but seeks to sanctify lawlessness using the authority of the general assembly and positioning it as a judicial body, which by definition, it is not as just close to it now, the russian ambassador also pointed out that one of the key deceptions from those supporting the resolution was this claim that somehow the money that was being used

would go to help the ukrainian people when in reality the money was going to be used to prolong this conflict to supply ukraine with more weapons, to carry out more military actions and prolong the conflict lead to more killing lead to more death. i. it was a moment where it became clear that the support the united states has had for its efforts to isolate russia or staff to russian assets and unilateral sanctions on russia attempts to push russia off of the international economy. that support may be fading as the economic consequences of this effort from the united states and this prolonging of a conflict. as the economic consequences become more and more apparent, many countries around the world are starting to ask questions and not have the enthusiasm they may have had once before. to meet you probably ask a russians deputy ambassador to the un again, believes western attempts to isolate russia are saying less support among you and

member states. what happened to be in the might be a very serious warning for western countries, and they are allies that drive. they are supposed to drive, reaching less and less support than the united nations. they might be disappointed and discouraged why there is the results of today's voting. not only the voting, it's necessary to point out that there was also very unfavorable for them of the beads where developing countries where pronouncing their grievances against western countries that they were approaching to them. lack of constructive approach in other cases where which could involve reparations and the remedy for their actions . so they were saying quite directly that this is a clear example of double standards and that the rush of a,

the western countries won't to prioritize ukrainian crisis. and to forget about all other crisis situation in the world. so there was a lot of very, very passionate speeches where absolutely not the music to the west. some years today, in the general assembly hall and secret talks between moscow and washington have taken place inter kia according to reports, which were confirmed by both countries. the meetings were held by high level intelligence officers, including the director of the c, i, a and his russian counterpart. according to the us, the subject was the rising risk of nuclear conflict and did not directly involve the conflict in ukraine. a u. s. national security spokesperson added that ukraine was brief in advance and that negotiations would not be held without kids participation a spokesperson for the crime. and also confirm that bilateral talks took place,

adding they were initiated by washington for mercy. i analyst and host of r t new show the whistleblowers john. periodic who says communications is in u. s. interests as americans can afford to provide blank checks to ukraine. talks are always good. it's always better to have a channel of communication open than it is to ignore one another. we can't afford in the united states to just provide a blank check for weapons and weapon systems and materiel indefinitely for the regime in kiev, because people don't ukraine. i think that we will see a push for basic talks, both from pressures inside nato and the european union, as well as here in washington within the congress. i think this is a very big deal. and bill burns to see a director is far, far more experienced in these kinds of issues then is the secretary of state

himself, tony blinking. he has spent a good part of his career working with the russians. the russians know that they can trust him and take him at his word and vice versa. so this was a big deal to send burns and not to send tony blinking. it tells me that the u. s. is serious about keeping this channel of communication open. ah, the industrialized wire must answer for the global emissions problem we face today . that's the message raised at the cop 27. un climate change conference entering it's 9 day. we spoke to mohammed adult director of the power shift africa, the think tank. who said africa needs support from historically polluting western states? if it's to become a leader and green technologies. 2 things we need to understand. continent has the greatest population in the world that it's got into energy. we have

650000000 africans. currently don't have access to electricity close to a 1000000000 africans don't have access to clinical care. and so it's in our interest to address the limited image excess challenge, but do it in a way that is climate compatible. if you look at the, the climate change phenomenon, where the continent that is suffering fust on lost. and so a transition to renewables and africa becoming a green leader and effectively helped in the well to limit global warming to below $1.00, decrease interest. the only sure way to actually secure a welding on a feature for those poverty is by transition to renewables, not just in africa, but are close to was included into his total pollutant countries. i think, well we shouldn't month of the historic pollutants is for finance and clean technology. i think we should demand that they actually assume responsibility for the hands of the cost. the climate problem that we're dealing with was largely

caused by the historic emissions in the current so called industrialized countries . and so in london that they actually pay the climate debt. we shall use duct opportunity to help paula a sustainable energy access, but also our future development so that we attract finance on from technology. i used to help after the explosion. incredible potential for renewables in our continues. while it's at the center of talks at cop $27.00 in pushing a green agenda, the west seems to be sidelining problems on the african continent. the question of clean water access is still one of the most pressing topics at the summit, as around one and a half 1000000000 african still live in areas of high water wilner ability. our teeth corroborates hot lab reports. despite the many bodies of waters peppered across the continent, the dams, the rivers, the legs, the valleys, africa continues to suffer from water shortages as well as what a borne diseases,

water scarcity effects, one in 3 people in the african region is getting worse with population growth urban ization and increases in household in industrial use. as water scarcity often encourages people to store water in their homes. this can increase the risk of household water contamination and provide breeding grounds for mosquitoes. mosquitoes or carriers of dang, gay fever, malaria, and other diseases. the impact of climate change on water resources from past and current emissions is as clear as mud because water does not fall under the 1992 treaty of the united nations framework convention on climate change. but africa and much of the developing world will be arguing that it does and it should very much form part of the formal agenda. the white water rarely appears in international climate agreements, even though it plays a key role in issues such as food security, energy production,

economic development, and poverty reduction. this potential of water must be explored, given that our actions to reduce global warming a currently lagging behind our ambitions. water does not need to be a problem. it can be part of the solution. water can support efforts to both mitigate and adapt to climate change. from the floods in nigeria to the drought in somalia, in the millions of this place, people will be looking upon this conference asking themselves why it seems to serve the interest of the global north and turning a blind eye to the true realities of climate change on the ground, because more often than not the true impact of climate change is measured through the ability or inability to separate glass of clean drinking water. the problem with africa is said that it's inability to tune its natural resources into a beneficiary to value and product. this is

a universal problem across the african continent when it comes to war to use the all parts of africa that extremely well watered, just as the parts of africa that have got very little water like namibia. for example, at the moment the buying issue seems to be agreement around what the temperature increases in weight, what the acceptable temperature official is. that way we forget about the fact that as your temperature changes, so does the ability of b atmosphere to absorb water over water body change. oh, thing about climate when it comes to water is about how does it change in ambient temperature over time, influenced the distribution of fresh water resources around the planet who benefits who loses pies? this is really what, what the politics of this whole things about the us treasury secretary is

struggling to reassure e partners after washington past a landmark climate law, leaving europeans less than thrilled. we are consulting widely with affected groups, including europeans and other countries that have concerns about the law. we are willing, within the limit of the kind of law that congress has passed to work with them to address concerns to the extent that we can. and also to explain the ways in which the law will benefit them, though the white house and the western press keep referring to biden's inflation reduction act as a climate law. so within the u. s, it's mainly being framed as something to help americans with inflation, which is pretty much their main concern right now. but overseas, they're really emphasizing the climate aspect. because who would dare to complain about the so called climate initiative, right? certainly not europe, but french and german officials have caught on to the fact that the new law incentivizes the purchase of american electric vehicles through tax credits and

discriminates against european cars. the car batteries also have to be sourced and made in america. so now europe's talk to economies, france and germany, are not only facing an energy crisis after washington successfully tormented, cutting their own cheap brushing gas supply off. but now washington's trying to use the climate change pretext to take a whack at european car manufacturing. maybe u. s. officials figured that europe would be a little more passive. they were certainly led a long way down the garden bath by washington when it came to the ukraine conflict . former french army chiefs of staff general piano de via, has been publicly saying this recently, basically pointing out that the big beneficiary of the ukraine conflict is the u. s . and not europe. the war in ukraine is not in the interest of the europeans. certainly not a france perhaps of the americans shifted more by just going along with washington lead initiatives, whether on the climate or in ukraine, europe, risks becoming

a vassal german weapons. manufacturers seem to be well aware of this. they're worried about germany serving the american defense industry by funding weapons purchased from the us instead of funding weapons to be manufactured in germany or in europe. with regard to german sovereignty, we must ensure that we will not put ourselves completely in the hands of the americans for the next 30 to 50 years. the weapons industry wouldn't be the 1st german industrial sector to take a hit to americans benefit western sanctions have already hit germany's manufacturing sector to the competitive advantage of the u. s. on the global playing field, as some german politicians have pointed out. on these exclaim horn and ag course, now these extremely high electricity prices have a positive side effect for the us. while our competitiveness is falling. but the

exploding energy costs are not the direct result of the ukraine war. they are the result of the sanctions package, which then started an economic war to which russia responded. gotcha. so if you, us treasury secretary j jaelyn thinks that the biden administration is going to try to convince europe that there is some kind of benefit in all of this. for them, they may succeed in hoodwinking european officials again. but good luck trying to convince the average european citizen e u countries have agreed to introduce new sanctions against it on following protests that have rocked the country for months. meanwhile, the iranian government has accused the german chancellor of undiplomatic behavior. as berlin continues to express support for the protesters appears to european union has already adopted a number of sanctions packages. we want to continue to step up the pressure on the

revolutionary guard corpse and the political leadership, my message to the demonstrators and to citizens with iranian roots. here in germany as this, we stand for everything that you are calling for, for human rights and women's rights. we stand shoulder to shoulder with the iranian people. her on has repeatedly accused the united states and israel of being behind the country's unrest. jania and officials have also blame the german foreign minister for taking an intervention of stance on protest in iran. after the officials said that berlin would not lead up in pursuing sanctions over a crackdown on protesters protest erupt in the country's last september, following the death of martha a meaning, while in police custody she had been arrested in per on by the morality. police were not wearing the hats are properly protest, had continued amid ongoing internet restrictions imposed by the government over 2000 people have reportedly been taken into custody since the demonstrations began

. political analysts and researcher christopher holly said, phil western countries will support anyone regardless of ideology to promote their interests. this is part of the hybrid warfare that you have un, nato are leasing on the run. the current batch of sanctions, not only target individuals and those connected for example with the i r g b, but also it targets press tv, which is a media outlet. so it goes to show how bankrupted the european ideas are of freedom of speech and freedom of expression in the media independence. this is the natural reaction to support anybody who's against the governments that are, you know, supporting liberation struggles that are supporting. that's up to the nation in the global, out against western intervention and western regime change operation. so ultimately, you know, the support, anybody, regardless of the political ideology,

we've seen that in their covert support, for example, of islamic state and our, and our loose inferior. we see that the west, over and over, doesn't really care about anything but its own interest, its own financial gain and its own power and the supremacy in all the regions of the world. so they will support now any protested regardless of what they're demanding. and that's the route for this hour's top news stories. make sure to follow r t dot com for 247 coverage and video content. thanks for tuning and we'll see you again at the top of the hour. ah ah, nice to come to russian state will never be tied up on the most landscape with the group in the
