negative part for history, we have to get rid of everything. oh, a with the russian service men are on their way home from ukrainian captivity after the recent prisoner swap will bring you the latest. as soon as they arrive in the capital, hungary says there is no agreement with fellow members on a russian energy priced cap, which undermined europe's energy security. that some member states threatened to veto restrictions on russian oil imports. and the conflict between the democratic republic of the congo and roberts may soon it east african nations agree to mediate the rebels withdrawal from occupied areas and then military support.

this is the most important thing for us, is that we want peace, that our children who remain in the east of the country, our mothers, fathers, and children, older brothers will live in peace. we need help with mosque out of the world. this is our international. i'm rachel blevins here with the top stories of the our welcome to the program. we begin with the label from the ukranian conflict, moscow and yet have conducted another major prisoner swap with some 50 russian service met released on thursday in exchange for captured ukrainian troops. there sat to arrive in moscow shortly the russian defense ministry. the troops faced grave danger and captivity. with some of the prisoners describing torture and ill treatment. we have our correspondent on the ground to bring you the latest when

they arrive to the russian capital. in the meantime, we heard from some of the soldiers shortly after they were transferred to the russian side of the front line. i'm with we're home. i'll see my friends and relatives. that's the most important thing to look. i am very happy. thank you very much to every one who worked to get us released. i don't have any words. i will try to forget everything that happened there as soon as possible with the new as moses, i am so delighted with thanks to the ministry of defense city. we've been returned . no one forgot about us. everything is great. i am alive and well and ready to serve. oh, i'm really pleased sitting there was impossible. i have no words. meanwhile in ukraine, power outages have been reported across the country. president zalinski said that every region has serious problems with electricity supply and the capital. a key at authorities now say power will be available only for 2 or 3 hours per day, until repairs are complete with the city's mer asking residence to move to the

countryside. if possible, earlier, roches representative to the un said moscow's airstrikes on ukrainian infrastructure are a response to weapons deliveries by western states. with the goal of the strikes being to undermine the combat capabilities of the ukranian army. this comes as a number of western officials were quick to condemn moscow for wednesday strikes, friend president emanuel micron, branded the attack a, quote, war crime which cannot go unpunished. and us secretary of state antony blanket, said rushes aim is to keep ukrainians cold. and in the dark, however, retired us army, colonel douglas mcgregor said that moscow is in fact degrading the ukrainian military, which itself stands accused of targeting residential areas in the don bath and other new russian territories. we keep saying civilian infrastructure, but if you're in a war and the electrical grid is supplying your troops and you

destroy the electrical grid, it's not because you said out to harm civilians, you set out to deprive the military capacity of any access to energy. there's a lot of evidence. so on the other side, that high mars has been used to deliberately target russian civilians international hans good and crime and other places. i was the director of the joint operation center during the coastal air campaign. and we very rapidly ran out was in the 1st week and a half of let's say, military targets in the purest sense. i wish we'd hit all the airfields, we'd hit barracks, these guys, things really wasn't much left over. he was flavio, remember was really almost a 3rd world country in terms of development. he hadn't gotten very far as douglas mcgregor just mentioned nato, and least, it's a relentless bombing campaign against serbia in 1999. the airstrikes last is $78.00

days and targeted not only military, but also civilian infrastructure. the u. s. lot operation went ahead without the approval of the un security council, which has been called a gross violation of international law and inactive aggression against the sovereign state of belgrade based to strategic researcher told us that nato's interventions created even more problems for serbia and other countries. there are too many examples like again, like levy alex here. we can talk about your law history from the time when the americans are they call intervention, we called the nato aggression. anything. i cannot say that we have some good results after day. so we have more and more problems the cosa will for the whole europe. it's like a black hole and the place from the very spreading. the terry's

drug drugs trafficking the human trafficking and so on. the european commission has agreed to exclude russian gas from joint procurement contrast, where 2 are set to account for 15 percent of the blocks gas storage facilities. next year, the move obliges the european commission to find other suppliers that says easy countries remain divided on whether the price cap on russian oil in port should go ahead. hungry, foreign minister says the energy price cap is a bad idea. to day we started negotiations on the introduction of a ceiling on gas prices. i can say that these are bad proposals, which also threaten europe's energy security. the ear right now is like a little group of girls and junior high school that thinks they rule the whole town when all they really control is their own school yard. and they can't really even agree on how to do that. we're hearing today from the hungarian foreign minister

that the blocks energy ministers could not agree on a natural gas price. ceiling and divisions have also emerged over a russian oil price cap, bulgaria hungry slovakia, the czech republic, estonia, poland, and latvia threatened to veto it for the block. arguing that the cap price will be set so high that is virtually useless to de russian. oil is trading at 77.7 dollars down already from yesterday's $81.00 and that's without any price cap, which the u. s. argued needed to be higher than what you initially wanted. and that's to avoid major global oil market disruption. russian, deputy prime minister, alexander novak has said that any customer implementing a cap just won't get oil. we're not planning to supply oil and petroleum products to countries which will apply the price cap. we could instead divert our supplies to market oriented partners or reduce output. the whole idea of

a cap was cooked up in the 1st place between the g 7 and the unelected. you commission bureaucrats and it's supposed to be implemented starting december 5th, which is coming up pretty quick. on that day, the you is supposed to totally ban russian oil imports and their g 7 allies are supposed to stick to the cap price. but get this. the us treasury has already issued permits, allowing us firms to continue to provide maritime transport of russian oil, including t e u countries like bulgaria, croatia, and other landlocked member states of the you, as long as they abide by the price caps. so, so much for all that public height above the, you banning russian oil. the idea of course, is to deprive russian president vladimir putin of cash. they keep talking like they're hitting him personally. bam. right in the pocket book, which frankly isn't much more ridiculous than the idea of hitting the russian economy when the g 7 and e, you represent just a fraction of the world market. so what's the west going to do?

sanction the rest of the world buying russian oil at market prices. former u. s. secretary, treasury secretary steve minucci and sounds like he's in awe of the price cap idea . but in the way you would be in awe of someone jumping out of a plane without a parachute. i think it's the most ridiculous idea i've ever heard. a price cap. the market is going to set the price. so if you put sanctions on at higher prices in a way, you're just making the situation worse. in my opinion, the you had already reduced its direct imports by 90 percent in anticipation of this cap, all while gorging itself on russian fuel like a fat kid who was about to be dragged away from the buffet table. they've imported it through offshore transfers between russian tankers and tankers of other countries. and also they've imported from other countries that bring in russian oil themselves. and then you know, the authoritarian russian oil co mingled with molecules of oil from other

nationalities in the storage tanks and then gets shipped out to the u. moscow's oil output has been humming along at its highest level since the onset of the ukraine conflict. that's according to western press reports. opec plus members state saudi arabia has pointed out. it's unclear how the cap would actually even work in practice. so looks like another largely symbolic act for the e u and not without huge potential blow back. but who's going to let pragmatic reality yet the way of ideology? apparently not the european commission. president ursula vander line, who sounds like she's already limbering up for virtue signaling. the way an opera singer does scales before a big performance. i'm confident that we will very soon approve a global price cap on russian oil with a g 7 and other major partners. we will not rest until ukraine has prevailed over putin and his unlawful and barbaric war. and washington is only too happy to cheer her on, as the e continues write down this particular garden path to washington's own,

ultimate economic benefit. banking and finance. professor richard warner says politicians, bending price caps on the energy market is a road to disaster for national economies some say, and this price that they, they're proposing as a cap is too high and some say it's too low. and now that's the trouble. when bureaucrats, opal additions decide they want to set prices. and they used to be a time when they're certainly in much of europe at people with favor of a market economy and market setting prices. but see how far we've come. it's now politicians and bureaucrats that want to the price is obviously the european commission has been very much in the business of intervening for many years. but things have really accelerated. it doesn't make much sense. and that's the trouble

in us where you said, if you want to set the price cap, i think russia is lucky just to sit back, watch and, and essentially continue what it's been doing, which is deliver raw materials, oil and gas to, to its customers at market prices and prices that had been set by markets and then put into all tracks ah, the flying rainbow flags and support the l g. b t. community could be allowed and could tar during the ongoing world cup after months of debate and reason. incidence of l. g b t. symbols being confiscated by authorities, ortiz ego, or should. on off reports on the controversies which have mired the world's biggest football festival, the fee for world cup has the reputation for bringing a sporting spectacle to the fans every 4 years. the one that's tough and carto is

no exception. on the contrary, this year's event has already become a source of drama, both on and off the pitch. on day 3, already saudi arabia's team sitting in the modest 51st place in the global rankings, made headlines off to beating the world's top 3 argentina. and the devastation of the messy devotees could only be matched by their rivals. triumph who seems we're excited to remove every berry and every duel that could stand between the team and the trophy. oh, the me, i think the, even the saudi king took notice of the show when declaring the next day

a national holiday. the tournament also quickly took a political turn to even before the ball was kicked for the 1st time. in fact, in the run up cutter had repeatedly warned that the stands are no place for activism. mainly addressing the advocates for l g. b. c writes that alone cause the storm and the western media, while some european politicians profusely ignored the rules team. germany covered their mouth ahead of the match with japan in an act of protest. as fever, bound captains from wearing l. g b, t colored arm bands. the stunt didn't do anything for them on the field though, as the game turns into a major upset for the european favorites and other clothing item that drove the spotlight away from sports was the scarf of the hungry and didn't see feel as noticed. it featured a map of so called greater hungry, which includes parts of modern ukraine and some other european countries safe to

say those ations weren't exactly impressed by the land grab. the promotion of revisionist ideas in hungary does not contribute to the development of ukrainian hungarian relations and does not comply with the principles of european policy. a quick glance at historical maps in the viennese ministry of foreign affairs has confirmed initial suspicions, according to which tresley santia, the kingdom of hungary cease to exist around 100 years ago. a political stunt came from team iran 2. they refused to sing their national anthem before getting thrash 6 to buy england. but global going into, we have to accept that the conditions. now country are not right or people are not happy. we're here, but it does not mean that we should not be the voice or we must not respect them. and in general, the atmosphere at the world cup has been rather uncomfortable. fans from israel, given an overwhelming public support for palestine and carter. hi,

ms. white. this is mclean, unofficially leon? oh, mathis lee. lisa city, i leased a vehicle from another motor, slower sales move. it's been less than a week and already the tournament has yielded a very rich harvest of scandal. both sports and politics wise. all to show this year's cup is going to be the one to remember. peace could be on the horizon and the democratic republic of the congo as east african nations have agreed to help jointly fight the m. 23 ravel group in the east of the country. thus, after talks and angle is capital, we got reaction from congo least people on the latest news and their expectations on the cooperation between african states. learned the most important thing is that

we want peace between the d r. c and rolanda. rwandans have long lived in the territory of the d r. c. that is why we need peace, only peace and good mutual understanding. nobody does. it doesn't. the most important thing for us is that we want peace, so that our children who remain in the east of the country, our mothers, fathers, children, older brothers, will live in peace. we need help. peace is expected to return to the mechanic republican congo on friday. after enablement was reaching dead, deal ensure is tesa fire ended the immediate withdrawal of the n. 23 rebels in the open areas. these comes after the con, the least president made to. we did the honda farming minister in a move to brink and then did the recent station in the eastern v r. c. though a whole set by the angle than president in it called total lawanda. these, these up fire agreement comes after a previous attempt to restrict peace in july haley the eastern

a major offense of this year in multiple territories with thousands of locals displaced and provoking a diplomatic conflict between the d. r. c and rwanda. uganda agreed to deploy military forces following aprils decision by 7 countries of the east african community to set up a forced to fight the rebels. the democratic republic of the congo joined the community. earlier this year, we spoke to a ugandan army spokesperson, who described how the african troop deployment would work, and how a un mission in the region failed to meet its aims. the east african cleaned heads of states, mid to ned, of the on the jail. many ship with integrated into can yetta and decided to deploy a i'm is tough. who can division force whose monday it would be to this um the foot in the city. the negative forces, indiana c,

d, and i've been with this in 1860 to lead to that only the most expensive mission in you and he's but then fighting is going to buy being killed. con lollies. people shared with us their opinion on the collective fight against m . 23 rebels telling us it's time to think about shared solutions to problems instead of focusing on single states. i personally, i believe in what we've quote unity and togetherness integration as is stuff for that. now. goodies is fibiger, then think about that country individually. but now about thinking about the stuff rec, as a whole you you and i know that if there is a problem in gwin voice, africa is not that piece. and if he's tougher guys, not that base even uganda, isn't it? that was. yeah. when days giving a hoping hon to congo was people coming that day? you in, i mean taking the, it's like the you in a,

me taking the goods of the people congress. so you gotta coming up is like close to being gay. me, but you're gonna say it's like giving, hoping, staying on the african continent. multiple countries in the region are set to receive almost $600000000.00 from the top tackle of the food crisis. the funds are dedicated to the most vulnerable states in africa as well. as the caribbean and pacific, but locals in south africa believe the e. u is actually seeking benefits for itself. why did that for a while now? or for the previous time did not come. i give dues for 2 africans and nowadays to do health issues with roacha or ukraine. and i bet who's the one in the african continent who had african asians to support them if they were supposed to bring money all along, then the money was coming. and now they're increasing it,

it means they're trying to buy the vote of the africans. africa must deal with him to support until you mid person. i don't trust them. because god, we prim for about not as well go through. most of, most of the book that we talk season dr. for a mouth regard to live. i use, you know, to do much. i don't, you could been through and i don't to be like, africans have reasons to be concerned. while millions on the continent struggle with food insecurity, the grain deal signed between russia, ukraine, turkey, and the un was aimed at helping those and the greatest need. but of the millions of tons of grain exported from ukraine under the plan. only 15 percent made it to the continent. this, my western voices of concern on the african hunger crisis, most grain ended up in develop, stays, part of the grain deal included, lifting a ban on crucial russian fertilizers to countries and need,

which also didn't happen, and exacerbated africa, hunger crisis. further, we spoke to the president of the socialist party of zambia, who says that the e u is capitalizing on the conflict in ukraine balls. they're trying to get africa support. we're had the problems with the food security enough. and you must have taken countries for a long time. and this food insecurity has been caused by them in the me. yeah, wonder mind out if what's drug substitute. we have been a dumping ground window someplace is meant that they don't know what to do with. there are no my aides, our food security, our agriculture systems that have undermined them or the day if we were hungry before the ukraine. me question coffee. how can we not to be hungry during the conflict there between that conflict they benefit from that conflict. it do via

conflict this that did the few 80 need they shouldn't use effect. they're trying to use africa to secure the support that wants and to the you and generous him. but i went vision ship with the russian. people have new up in that lake that we have. i didn't do the russian people, the russian people have been on our side when we're struggling against them for our independence. and now on to the 3 day breast, a gathering in russia, st. petersburg, bringing together business allegations from safety countries to discuss investment initiatives within the block delegations from burkes members saves, are presenting their project proposals and rushes northern capital. that means session on friday we'll focus on digital development, raising urban living standards and rural economic projects. we caught up with a member of the directors board of trade eurasia from turkey, who says that ankara wants to boost cooperation with bricks. actually,

a turkey is not a bricks concrete, not yet spotter. our president, mr. frasier, piper long had already told that we would like to attend. we would like to join the global for breaks countries, and we can corporate that. we can use the opportunities with a all the bricks, countries it up to russia and ukraine is and the all listen collect of us. i mean, we opened our straits and they could sense the grains. but unfortunately, as president of russia federation of another group would have said that these greens are not going to call to switch, they should go. holberg should solve this problem because in the near future we will face a really big problem. so for the food consumption, as americans are just wrapping up their holiday, the u. s. department of agriculture says the conflict in ukraine is the reason why

they are paying more for their thanksgiving dinners. the price of a large, fresh turkey will cost just $0.02 more per pound than last year. in a large, frozen turkey will cost $0.09 more per pound than last year. with the ongoing highly pathogenic avian influenza outbreak, rushes war on ukraine and drought across the united states pushing up the price of thanksgiving, staples. according to our officials, the conflict has resulted in a critical supply of wheat, corn, barley, and other grain being depleted. joe biden earlier referred to rising food prices as hooton's price hike. however, costs were surging, even before the war. a ruptured in february with inflation beginning to rise almost immediately after biden took office a year earlier. many americans are unhappy with the unpleasant thanksgiving surprise, while one farm owner said she was embarrassed to tell people the latest turkey prices. i have

a very good credit. i'm thinking maybe it's not enough those 10 years ago. i tell people some people retire very early, you know, what would be inflation tried to turn. he said very high. i don't know how much because my daughter bought it hello time ago, but they're high for the prices. and i even the plot with the prices of the turkey, so as for cold, i'm in dallas to tell people that there's no way around it. well, a lot of people hear the price and even though their customers for many years, they say i can't play that, that's all for now. be sure to check out our t dot com for all the latest breaking news and updates. we'll see you right back here. at the top of the hour. ah!

ah, when i was showing wrong, when all proof just don't hold any world. yes to shape out disdain becomes the advocate and engagement equals betrayals. when so many find themselves worlds apart, we choose to look for common ground. ah ah ah, but in the same spoke with
