ah, a, with the headlines a, you know, the thinking can have an independent energy market as the block is forced to, by us liquefied natural gas. triple a south african anthea point lead. if that imprison days before he was supposed to be really some parole following a court decision that shops local resident with. now we can shop double gauge your coverage on yours or not to model for the amount

of the faith. a representative of the world cup compensate a flag of the ukrainian military that near lock c, as all battalion that had been unfurled by spanish files during that seems like against germany. a want to get off didn't get anywhere anywhere in the world. welcome to ortiz, national. it's just got a team here in the capital and to speak to happy with us. i memorize them on me. let's take a look at today's top stories. russian, i'm back in vienna has not the you for turning to expensive us gas symbols instead of buying cheapest supplies from moscow. isn't it? vice versa, europe, his last, russia is his largest energy supplier to get the opportunity to buy the u. s. l n g

at a much higher price. great achievement may offer author prism a crawl has arrived in the us where he is expected to try to negotiate for low gas prices. the leader of fellow e u. member st croix says that's essentially amounts to making does a serious state of war, more serious than ever in our lives have come to the conclusion that rule by gust from allies a 3 times the prize that is effect and will cause that correlation presidents or ban molanda vetch has just said that europe quote, was under the illusion that it was going to create an energy market. yeah. on the back of cheap russian gas, it cut itself off of because it didn't want to contribute to russian revenues, which provided the luxury of that illusion. and also their green fantasies. but things have obviously taken a wrong turn when nuclear powered france is now scrambling to get its decommissioned and rusted atomic energy plants back up and running. france even

fire the cold plant back up again. this week, the french ecology minister has said that the move quote in scribes in the closer plan of frances nuclear plants. so then why are you reopening its geniuses? and greene, germany is also turning back to coal and firewood, as fears mt of it's industry bailing to the us, where there's actual fuel for them. so corporation, president, milan, which said that the reason why french president emanuel, my call is in washington this week for a stay visit with you as president joe biden is to quote, beg from a position of weaker partner for understanding and mercy, or more to point to beg for cheap gas during the visit, my call is set to pay homage to piano fall. the frenchman who designed washington d. c, who probably also remind biden for the millionth time of how france helped the u. s . when its independence from the brits in the revolutionary war,

mac ho kind of be like the old friend who appears out of nowhere and wants to reminisce about the good old days. people who do that always. just want something from you. michael has been saying for weeks now that he wants to speak to the manager of the global gas station america because he isn't happy with the prices. but if you ask international energy agency executive director fatty below it's global gas station, russia that should be upset about having lost the client europe large the by far, the largest market, largest clark for russia and russia lost his client forever. russia. we'd be a loser off this and i'd better see the thing about being a gas station is that you have something that everyone needs even milan of. it's pointed that out when he said that russia and the u. s. are quote, indestructible because they have unlimited amounts of energy for their deeds. well and for everyone else's needs. so it seems like the real loser here is the customer,

europe, in this case, which is forced to go round to other global gas stations, demanding a discount. like my call is doing with the u. s. american gas is $3.00 to $4.00 times cheaper on the domestic market than the price of which they offer to europeans. these are double standards. you might also recall that just last year, german chancellor, all i've schultz is party was trying to lecture another, a global gas station cutter on human rights. but this week berlin signed a 15 year liquefied natural gas deal with doha. unfortunately for german households and industry guitar, a gas won't arrive until 2026. but that certainly gives your a plenty of time to drive around to global gas stations, whining, threatening bagging and charming. another resounding success for european policy and strategic foresight. a russian deputy prime ministers lashed out against

the west, broad track on russian oil suppliers and he says those were sent to lead to deficits of the commodity on western mockers. check out last 3. i'm on our website on see the economy news out in the example the russians still have and to a full year high as the country's strengths in the business ties in the variety is exports to india, sword by more than 400 percent in the past 7 months to amount to 149000 tons this year, up from 34000 last year. we heard from a former senior economist at the international monetary fund who passes the importance of still impulse for the rising indian economy. oh, india is all really in need of more. now what you're doing is russia is writing quite a bit on the stone phones. so when is writing the chromosomes feed?

india log market always can be dear and lots of other unstantiated demand as far as like market kiddos and able to absorb good on dusty. so therefore, to my mind because he lives affordable and they're just going to do the same thing to great. by the way does it does less than the price offered by domestic market. so the so therefore, the call, the demand within the 1st option, capacity within the country that a huge country would last saw him on reduced. so it's really not for june that the russian still is doing. i do highly discounted rate and i think any manufacturer will do that. a man who is such a south african poet fight leader has been served in prison days before he was

supposed to be released on parole fund 3 decades behind bars. because decision to free him had outraged local residence. the correspondent ruler tattler as the story ya, new swallows is said to have been stabbed in his cell y one of the inmates. and he has subsequently been rushed to hospital. the statement by the correctional services says that there was an unfortunate fare being incident and the sentiment that is really grabbing south africa on twitter and other social media platforms is why was the word unfortunate used as part of that statement of the 729 years in prison for killing south african communist parties. general secretary chris honey, the countries i ask, what has grunted parole to polish immigrant? yeah, new swallows. one of the issues at the knob of were, loses released from prison is that he must serve the rest of his parole conditions

here in south africa. and was given a permanency residence by the minister of home affairs in order to keep him here. part of the deal is that he cannot use his polish passports or his identity in order to leave the country. chris honey was considered by many as the natural successor to nelson mandela and a radical who would have brought much need a change to south africa. that judgment has seemingly opened up old woods cause i know for us you will never die. cause i never presented aspirational for people's liberation. you as a fighter for our people who have wrote out a program to protest this thing to show our displeasure and were taken are the legal steps are going forward. so that this decision and can be reversed where we, where we are, we just coming out of a meeting, consulting them our lawyers. and we've been in touch with them over the last few days to see how to take up this meta illegal. because what was done was treated

arrogantly by the constitutional court, which, by the way, we want to cushion them at the seat of the cause to snow courts. when you pass judgments when you passed just the oh, the humblest. this sincere respect for by the we saw our guns, authoritarianism, disdain, fullness, disrespect at of the charges basically same. we are in charge. that's absolutely none forensic up and you don't just have to take the words of his comrades. chris, honey was a man loved by the people yours, their cottage, amman, yours not to morrow fall, rosier man of dignity. is there a fighter for something that you want to achieve through turns of the generation? he understood you manage, you understood, some africans yet a stick of black may shoot. you understood it exactly what. what is it that wonder? does it take this man as a sure soldier?

does a soldier admin and he does simple fight. even now we still shocked about date. was the steward quick, you are supposed to be a president or does the country was fighting for their rights for many the decision to release? yeah. lose. why lose on payroll lives? a bitter taste of injustice and even resentment. because he has never come clean about his motives or the people involved in his crime. for the honey family, this is a bitter pill to swallow. you skunky, she finished why? this continued, if i can come to someone who can get my to my husband, i don't read you had suddenly said to my family to myself, to my time ended charmer, i'm to son. so you probably think i over today, chris honey remains a hero. not only in south africa, but beyond. and if south africa was robbed of nelson mandela by a party,

then you lose were loose and his co conspirators robbed the country of its future cannibal. it had to have a lot of heat in johannesburg. the truth between m $23.00 and surgeon group on the army of the democratic republic of congo, seems to be holding since peace talks took place in neighboring angola. last week that i wasn't referring on congo, andrew under have agreed to the seat fire and the withdrawal of the m. 23 group from the congress east. the sci fi agreement that came into effect on friday evening requires the m. 23 militant room to leave the areas. it's still controlled . if the m 23 doesn't leave vigil, 4th, it will be forced to intervene in the conflict. despite the high host of peace, some local arm groups have continued fighting and residency. there are signs of the m $23.00 as maintained is positions. frequently we have her go to many

dialogues in this country. i don't get any hope from this. comalies are suffering the same people who are disturbing us. they are coming from time to time. this. we are now tired about the situation. i hope that these time the people gathering in you in nairobi they will take a wise decision because as long as they are sitting there, taking decisions is called the leads we are suffering from the decisions even if we get there is that it will be temporary it will not be eaten or because it is the habit every day they talk. what is the solution? another day, another head live on the world cup, having nothing to do with football spanish fires of unfurled a flag of the 20 minutes. he is near nancy as of battalion. the banner was and

confiscated by fever representatives. just isa ali brought us this report from cutter, or been saying go through this wall cup it. i wouldn't say the fault will being overshadowed by issues off the field, but certainly then taking a more prominent role, not by accident, perhaps with the western media seeking to use this wild carper's bull horn for promoting their own causes. and in that latest episode of control, to see if you've seen this issue from the spain game, where a group of fans wave the as of battalions flag, of course, a neo nazi group. hugely controversial group or whose existence in the ukrainian military forces has been a source of real concern to those in moscow and policy makers. there. now you think that everybody would be united in supporting the security at the

stadium who removed that flag, who instructed those people not to carry that flag, but not everyone sees at the same way roman xhylia and he's a former ukranian national team football are actually spent time playing football in spain, and he was one of those who took the facebook in a post that he has since deleted. praising at the as of battalion fee for are the victims of russian propaganda. i hope that the ukraine and football association and the ministry of youth and sports will also respond to such shameful behavior of the fee for representatives. and for those single celled organisms that prohibit our flag been raised in the stands, i hope they will apologize. and finally study the real history of the issue, not according to the kremlin back media. now those claims might ring hollow one looks at the history of this particular football player. romans those earlier is taken to social media before to praise the battalion he's posted picks with an image of stephen ben dera, who is of course,

one of the big neo nazi collaborators who groups like out of italian look to go with great respect and also a post, he posted himself a photo opposing with the numbers. 1488 of course more symbolism that by with regards to nazi type of sympathies that sir, unfortunately many in those ukrainian armed forces seem to have when he was playing in spain. as i mentioned before, you're playing for a club called cf through who and the broader. and while he was at the club, he was kicked out for holding extreme political views. and in fact, in one game that he played in the spanish league, the game had to be called off because, or some of the fans of the opposing team bring him so much because of those that fall right, beliefs that he holds on to. now of course, at this time, i've managed to stop the waving of that near nazi flag in coordination with the

organizers and the security at the stadium. they to been kept busy by other issues . for example, iranian rioters or supporters of the riots is in iran, also trying to wave slogans, banners. and increasingly, we're seeing the security teams here at the stadiums. cracking down on that, specially ahead of that iran usa game later on. unacceptable policies based on fragile assumptions and going against international norms. that's how the leader of egypt said it has his blood been damning resolution by the european parliament that criticized the north african countries human rights record. the lawmaker claims a move is nothing short of europe trying to revive his colonial past. we all received with displeasure the decision issued by the european parliament. unfortunately, these policies are outdated, reminiscent of

a european colonial legacy and reveal nothing but a hidden desire to spread the culture of a particular civilization. these are issues that no free country, particularly egypt, will accept. this wisely never rose by egypt within the last 18 months improve human rights. the european parliament says not enough progress has been made in the country. the e. u has also demanded the unconditional release of egyptian political activists. as social media influences, the move has been slammed by egypt parliament as a violation of the countries independence. we heard from a political science professor at hel, one university in cairo, who says the use trying to interfere with egyptian sovereign laws. while the e, you have plenty of his own cases that could be considered human rights violations. the west is trying to interfere in the egyptian sovereign.

ah lowe's and judiciary like a one of the observations of the european parliament resolution saying that they are mistreating and violating the human rights of our lab. the fact that i lab factor is an activist. he was charged of criminal charges and he exhausted all 3 stages of litigation. that is a final verdict. so what you expect of the egyptian government to do to interfere in the judiciary? let's play the devil's advocate. can the egyptian parliament criticize one of the european countries for not responding to stress s o s coals offer if you jeez, in the mediterranean who were drowning and not responding to them,

killing hundreds of refugees in the immediate arena. and this is a serious chart. is this a criminal against humanity or not? is this a violation of human rights or not? ross's ambassadors in canada as to why his embassy statement that marriage should be between a man and a woman. after he was summoned for questioning by author, the russian government has a law prohibiting lee endorsement of same sex relationships and public canadian officials of said the em embassies, tweak a pit hateful. i'll see how the charles, to hear from the russian ambassador himself well, it was a surprise. it was, the reaction was a surprise and they were actually our tweets were not only in conjunction

with our legislation adopted, but also in response to the statement by the canadian minister of foreign affairs made on november 24. so in total legislative process was criticized and we answer to the rather extensive explanation, expressing the wheel of our people who want to leave for their traditional way of life is out for interference. well, it's obviously a double standard, but it c a, you know, we would see kind of game of chess in that ideological stand between our san angelo west. well, it's the have probably a demonstration of the mental optic. so the current cabinet, prime minister to door cabinet, actually things are probably candidate. hm. outstanding issues. so you don't to

interfere. we don't model in canadian on affairs, domestic fairs, internal affairs. so the domestic fair. so father western states, i me expect that now canada and as a western state. so. but let us leave for us. we want ah, once again, the us excused a foreign nation of meddling in lessons. this time the president of the central american nation of salvatore is the one being blend. these claims from this white washington's own admission of intern in other countries. when u. s. interests are at stake, all these kind of morphine as the story. the u. s. state department decided it was time to take up the issue of election meddling once again. this time they took aim at the central american nation of el salvador. throughout our last electoral process, we noticed with alarm increasingly direct attempts by some salvadorans to directly

influence certain electoral outcomes in the united states. as we have repeatedly made clear, this is unacceptable. the will of the people must not be undermined by foreign influence. so what in the world are they talking about? well, a woman who ran for congress in the recent mid term vote issued a statement recently saying many of the online attacks directed against her originated from el salvador as president naive, who kelly. she cited tweets that he made against her. i hope that all my salvadoran, mexican honduran, guatemalan, dominican venezuelan brothers and all latin americans in california 35th district, do not vote for norma j taurus. she does not work for you. she only seeks to keep our country's underdeveloped. so the president of a foreign country tweeting constitutes election madeline. this sounds a bit paranoid and delusional on the part of us leaders. after all,

the idea that all it takes to influence the us election results is a tweet by a foreign leader. that sounds a bit unhinged. the allegation is especially hard to take seriously when you look at the many decades of efforts to influence the political system of other countries by the united states. take al salvador for example. during the 1980s el salvador was overrun with right wing paramilitary groups. many countries and south and central america sent their soldiers to fort benning and georgia to attend the school of the americas and learn techniques to crush dissents and laughed as opposition. violence from us trained paramilitaries caused tens of thousands of people in el salvador to flee. then in the mid nineties, bill clinton allowed their temporary protected status to expire and many were forced to return to their home country decades of war. busy imposed by the united states and a flood of us made weapons as made al salvatore,

a rather violent place. gang violence is a plague on everyday life in the country as a particularly high murder rate. recently the country experienced entire day without one murder. and that caused headlines and was very notable because it rarely happens. so if any one should be complaining about foreign meddling, it should be the salvador ends. we recently seen a number of washington officials speaking up and talking about how far americas foreign meddling south of the border goes. i do want to ask a follow up when we were talking about what is capable, what you need to do to be able to plan a coo and use you said in your expertise, having planned coos. i'm not going to get into specifics bub successful cuz well, i wrote about venezuela in the book and it turned out not to be successful if we ever tried to metal and other countries elections. oh probably. but it was for the

good of the system in order to avoid the communists from talking over. for example, in europe, in 474849, the greeks and the italians we, we don't do that now. we don't mess around other people well and i'm them. i'm only for a very good, you know, your mind video and i was former see, i don't really for a very good cause. but according to us officials interfering and other countries, funding death squads and paramilitaries and overthrowing elected governments. that's just democracy and helping countries back on to the correct path. but watch out for a tweet by a foreign countries president. that is a violation of sovereignty, that cannot be tolerated. caleb martin r t new york. now. so news in brief, from around the world. ah,

3 people have been reported killed in crashes between is ready troops and promising civilians in the west bank is when he pulls his have said that the military convoy got stuck in the past in the city of hebron due to a technical malfunction, angering a local cloud health care workers of taken to the face of paris to them on better salaries and job conditions. pro this said the government that has not adequately provided from medical professionals and of the state workers. china has deployed a new crew of 3 assets to his national space station, the orbiting. the barn tree is tossed with preparing for long term space missions. while that rose up, there's a news out there to check out all t dot com all rumbler. subscribe and she's an in from white lives at the top of the out. mm.

ah ah, with

it would seem, we have reached the point of no return. after being the target of sabotage. the north stream pipelines will be mothball, the mutually beneficial energy relationship bureau and russia had for decades is come to an end. the geopolitical implications are enormous in europe. is the biggest loser in with mike wanted to go and pay my respects hon. all those who lost their license, the hands of the 3rd, right. and i wouldn't want to do it with anybody other than john, honestly, you know, horrible atrocities that affected millions and millions of v. and this is the ideology that i, you know,

live 5 or 4 years in my own is journeyman. since it's harder than mine, big 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 it is really 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 have something to believe. i'm not sure what it's going to be. the students are myself to be a real american patriot, but i don't like the direction of my country is going a whole lot when i will when my younger a cheaper bill because it was the room. mm hm.
