a shot especially with new took. are you going to skip mm ah, the bbc illustrates a report on russian strikes in your brain with an image of a building destroyed by the ukranian army. our correspond that investigates the site of the incident. i'm standing right next to this building right now was behind me, and i know for a fact that it wasn't destroyed during barbaric antibiotic artillery shelling of people civilians have done this by ukraine and not rush and epoch making milestone . that's how kind of describes the upcoming summit between beijing and gulf states

as washington warrants middle eastern countries against citing with a suicidal experiment. that's how some environmentalists have planned a green trial in the city of oxford to limit pars in the city center during business hours. we put the issue up for debate, a workable system. we used to always get the excuse for every public policy arguments that it's for the children. now it's always for the environment that is the most dramatic thing i've heard and probably 2 and a half weeks. we either like democracy or we don't let them try the experiment. if it fails, it fails. ah, hello, and good morning from moscow to wherever you may be catching the program. welcome to the hours most, pressing new stories from around the globe. i'm here, i'll isabel, the b. b. c has illustrated a report on russian strikes on ukraine with a picture of

a building actually destroyed by ukraine's shelling of don. yes. as r t, the romano, closer of explains such incidents, go in line with mainstream media is under reporting on events in the don bass, a russian forces and their don boss counterparts are traditionally portrayed by ukrainian and western mays, free media, as indiscriminate barbarians. their viewers and readers are often just a couple of clicks away from terrifying footage that rubs their noses into a near perfect trap. designed to demonize anything to do with the word russian. and the narrative accompanying, as is often a complete fantasy take vis, breaking news story from the b b. c. the british broadcaster suggests that the building pictured is in ukraine and was destroyed by a russian strike. now that could not be further from the truth. how do i know that?

well, i'm standing right next to this building right now is behind me. and i know for a fact that it was destroyed during barbaric and chaotic artillery shelling of peaceful civilians in the next by ukraine. and not russia. such fake news regarding the almost 9 year conflict and done boss has been surfacing in western media on a regular basis and it took b only 5 minutes to find if you examples. mm mm. i sh with

blue lou. and it's not just fake stories. it's the stories that they choose not to tell. since the start of the conflict in 2014 western media have often turns a blind eye to mass civilian casualties, atrocities and war crimes committed by the ukraine and military and nationalist, neo nazi battalions against the civilian population of the boss. thousands of people, including many children, have been killed over this period and continued to fall victim to ukrainian aggression to this day. so, why does such tragedies go largely unnoticed by western main, 3 media?

with spoken to the authorities in charge of issuing accreditations to all media, both russian and foreign. now their answer is simple. western media is absent from don boss. do she us that would be the name foreign media such as it been is c r c. and and my hair long time ago. last time the baby she was here was the spring of 2016 since then they haven't been present here. they haven't got official accreditation and therefore they aren't working hand. and then they work in a conflict zone, but on the ukrainian side of the frontline. so they come to be objective about what's happening in the don't ask republic as they don't why care? artsy has been on the ground here in the nest and logan's republics from the get gold. over this period we've seen and communicated with journalists from all over the world, most of whom have come here without any pre determined agenda. however, the presence of the so called heavy hitters such as the bbc and cnn is something

rare to the region. they prefer to cover the events from a distance while trying to convince their viewers of their so called objectivity remote call for a rti donors for republican journalists. an author, daniel lazara, says the media have become a tool in the hands of governments. i assume his carelessness, but that is that that doesn't excuse that. i mean the babysitter careless doesn't try very hard to be accurate. and in this case it's really quite a the results are really quite embarrassing the western press signed on to the war . therefore, they have, they have voluntary transform themselves into propaganda, arms of the western government. they have their a date endorse the war. they're trying to help the war effort. and therefore that means essentially, failing to practice independent journalism and turning themselves into government

pieces. although western media has deliberately overlooked what's been really happening, some russian soldiers who've been fighting on the front lies share their experiences with us ah, phone as well that it happened that we were surrounded when we had set up position in a house. of course, without realizing that we were already fenced amber when you talked to her, they used the following tactics. thank you. in the 1st they let us enter the area. we thought there was nobody there. we were not being shot at. we went in after that they began firing from all sides. later we understood this was their strategy, loyola thoughtful, even though once it happened like this,

they began by injuring one of our guys and then waited for someone to come get him . then they began firing. if it was too dangerous for our military vehicles to go into aid, so we watched as our injured marine crawls little by little. and then with a quick role, he was say, we thought thank god circle . know this is suppose i say the word carefully, pretty often in news reports, all work has to be done very care for elizabeth or morley. my aim is that i must save the lives of my compatriots at any cost because i will have to look their mother in the eye and explain how her son lost his life. i had a sergeant, i won't say his name. he was

a resilient sergeant. he and his men pushed through the enemy across the whole city . when they arrived at their final destination, they got past and on their way back through the city center, his armored vehicle was hit. the vehicle was on fire and the sergeant without any weapons, saved the men who were inside, then carry the injured the city of every person. every sold, every civilian, and every reporter working there demonstrates traits of heroism. the chinese foreign ministry says the upcoming stomach between china and gulf countries will be a milestone for future partnerships. that's china's president and his easing pain. arrived in the saudi capital for the bat set to boost strategic operations in the region. he thinking to see to president, she's in pings, attendance at the 1st china arab summit is the largest and highest level diplomatic

event between china and the arab world. since the founding of the people's republic of china, and it will become an epoch making milestone in the history of china, arab relations president, she state visit to saudi arabia will elevate the china saudi arabia comprehensive, strategic partnership to new heights. ahead of arriving at the capital, the chinese leaders plane was provided with an honorary escort by saudi military jets. the upcoming summit will cover multiple areas of cooperation between beijing and it. saudi partners, a c, g t. n correspondent is in reality with more details. presidency is having a busy schedule and react since there are 3 major events taking place. first is of course the state visit to saudi arabia, followed by a summit between the chinese leader and leaders of the gulf cooperation council country. there's also a highly anticipated 1st ever a china arab summit between presidency and has of states that represent the

interests of much of the arab world. now, officials have held this visit as a continuation of the long historical friendship between china and the arab region . since the ancient road, but of course, the strengthening of modern relations also played a big role. i should say there are deep synergies between the development strategies of china and the era region. walker operation expert se could naturally follow. now it speaks volumes that president, she is listening, react, admit high tension between saudi arabia and its biggest traditional allies, the united states. and on the other hand, the message that president is bringing along on the strip is to build a shared community with a common destiny with the arab world. but your political message here is that china police facing and the world to both champion multilateralism respect each other sovereignty and the right of self determination. this analysts say it's a common core interest that's served as a foundation for economic, technological,

and cultural cooperation between the 2 sides from city. and meanwhile, the white house has warned a growing chinese influence in the middle east. same beijing might pursue goals which go against the world order. we are mindful of the influence that china is trying to grow around the world. the middle east has certainly one of those regions where they want to deepen their level of influence. we believe that many of the things they're trying to pursue in the manner in which they're trying to pursue are not conducive to preserving the international rules based order. we heard from jamal what came professor of history and international relations at the lebanese university. he says, the u. s. is trying to maintain its influence in the region by keeping china and russia away. we know very well that united states is very influential in saudi arabia and it, it is a decisive product good. and the succession process stuff is going on now. and so

the idea, this is something that united states is still pursuing it as than trying to keep the middle east at bay on its influence. because this is one of the grass that i think g by the united states to message the asian powers. i mean russia, china, it on, on, oops, struck them from having access to the east mediterranean, on to other all posts that would give me or grant. let's say, and the range of poems access to money, thyme, $3.00 groups. a step toward a complete dystopian. that's how some environmentalists have slammed a trial in the u. k. city of oxford that will require residents to get a permit to use their private vehicles in the center during rush hour. we think

that this is one small step toward just complete to stay p using climate and net 0 as an excuse, as per usual when rules and regulations are brought in to restrict people, they never actually use the real reason to start off. it's always public health, or in this case, saving the planet orchard has chosen itself to be the subject of a suicidal experiment. every one i speak to hates it. the traffic filter scheme is set to begin in 22004. local authorities say it's designed to reduce traffic and it's negative impact on the environment. under the new rules, local residents would need a special permit to drive through the restricted areas in rush hour. anyone driving through the filter without the permit would be fine. 70 pounds or around $85.00 oxford authorities claim the measure will make the city a better place to live for all residents. with some activists expressing support for the move. the official analysis of the scheme found that it will mean

a 35 percent decrease in traffic. a 9 percent reduction in road casualties. rush hour buses will run 15 percent quicker and air pollution will improve in 91 percent of locations. this will save lives and make our city more pleasant now and for future generations. we discuss a controversial traffic filter system with radio host carry harrison and steve bill radio hosts and political commentator. we used to always get the excuse for every public policy argument that it's for the children's now, it's always for the environment and unfortunate, i think bureaucratic governments all over the world tell a truth, but don't really tell the truth of what the purpose of this agenda really is i think that's why people are skeptical of that is the most dramatic thing. i have heard and probably 2 and a half weeks when i moved to los angeles 20 years ago, the air was on breathable. the traffic congestion is still absolutely impossible,

making the city on livable. so what has happened is people have gotten vespers and bicycles. it seems like a radical idea. but if you like, clean air, if you like to be an upright being that is able to get from a to be comfortably without being smacked by a car. sometimes you might have to limited personal. i don't think people are just giving in their cars and driving and random. most of them are going somewhere that's not a workable system. any more than oxford, when you have a town that was built hundreds of years ago with narrow streets, it was not anticipating vehicles. you're going to have to deal with the reality of an old town with small confines and with people wanting to get in and out of those areas for work and business and to take their kids to school. he got to deal with the reality, not the idea that we can put trolleys in or some sort of a monorail system like disney world and move people around rapidly on a, on a relatively easy schedule. i would agree with steve. except let's, he mentioned walt disney who created disney world, which is still a modern for excellent transportation,

if an effort is being made to improve things. and let's assume that the city council of oxford is some sort of democracy and that a vote was taken in the public, was involved to some degree. then we either like democracy or we don't. if in fact this is where they want to go and create a quality of life that surpasses everyone, then that's a good thing for the upright mammals that live there. so let's put the rule in place and then let the public boat, if they're not getting to vote in advanced and when they throw the us any child levers, as he put it in, was the public really thinks about. and i'd also point out that in beijing you have millions of people on bicycles while the most polluted cities in the world. because it's not just transportation that fuels pollution. if they want cleaner air, they want a better way to get around from a to b, to have less collision, less people knocked down more people on bicycles done. let them try the experiment . if it fails, it fails, and it fails in front of all of us. we now know never do that again. ah,

the u. k. has agreed to a deal with the u. s. to double liquefied natural gas exports to britain with the nation's prime minister, setting the goal of lowering prices. together the u. k and u. s. will ensure the global price of energy and the security of all national supply can never again be manipulated by the whims of a sailing regime. the partnership will bring down prices for british consumers and help and europe's dependence on russian energy once and full. despite attempts, reports show the u. k, and europe will be facing bigger challenges to keep warm. the international energy agency said that europe is only safe this year. as last summer rush and gas help replenished reserves. meanwhile, u. s. exports of ellen, g r, priced up to 4 times higher than the domestic market energy experts point out that the u. k. u s. steel will not solve the crisis. it is a strategy that is at best short sighted and at west will only further enrich the

oil and gas industry at the expense of every one else. the u. case dependence on russian energy exports has been comparatively low. last year, just 4 percent of gas was imported. the major portion of the u. k. supply coming from norway, international petroleum economist john foster question whether the new deal will be able to lower prices. what do you okay, united states say as it does in this announcement, is that they will work together to what they say to increase energy security and drive down prices. in my view, that's meaningless. it's a hollow promise. they, us, administration, the people of washington do not regulate the prices for all of the other commercial terms, which the energy exports are made by private companies in the united states. i

cannot see how this other deal will help you. okay. consumers for start with energy bills when i see about it talk about the n g u and europe doesn't need this expansion of gas from the u. s. europe is getting the shock treatment, moving from low cost russian gas supplied on the invite, the long term dependable contracts to high cost imported at n g, from wherever, particularly from the united states. and meanwhile, europe faces an energy crisis. it faces economic disaster. seeing how the winter moves along forage, the u. s. u k initiative is a distraction, is a distraction from the european energy crisis, which stems from these western sanctions on russia is not from the war of such peru has sworn in its 1st female president dina bull last day that says the

countries now former president pedro castillo has been in peach and placed under arrest both castillo and the congress that removed him, have accused each other of an acting. a qu, protestors have flooded the streets of lima, some happy in some distress, by the sudden change in leadership. full art, they appear. ruth, former vice president, took over as president following a congressional vote to impeach the former leader. may the request, seo is accused of attempting to orchestrate a coup in response to congress. his attempt to remove him from the position locals expressed mixed emotions over the unfolding political drama. because president pedro castillo has not been allowed to work. castillo has been sown, he has been slandered. this is why we are now going through what we are going through. it was necessary to close this filthy congress. dina warranty. she's part of this brotherhood. we don't want either. any of us i here in defense of democracy,

pedro castillo, has done today, is to shut down congress and carry out a crew. he was elected by all the peruvian people. the people are not in lima, the people are the whole country, the whole peru, and they have to learn to respect the will of the people. casias opposition has attempted to remove him since the 1st stay in office dogging the former school teacher with criminal corruption investigations vallarta. his own image has been marred by a similar congressional investigation that was dismiss just 2 days before she received the presidency. the last 6 years of political turmoil have pushed the majority of peruvians to call for early elections, both for congress and the presidential office. we spoke to political analysts. dear ortiz, who says, peruse future, should we in the hands of the people, not the politicians. there's been an ever increasing confidence in all the institutions imperial,

including not only government, but media as well as civil society. so in my opinion, at this moment, the best in the hospital is more than ever before in the hands of the organized masses of workers, of peasants, of indigenous rights, defenders and ultimately, bedroom battles who help hold the peace in the rural country side. i think that there is no quick fix at this moment. president custio's presidency and his mistakes and his merits are all the symptoms of what we have been through and peruvian, political life, which is instability, thievery, and ultimately a lot of egoism and individual isms which keep any political project from being coherent, let alone successful. in an effort to get homeless people off the city streets, the mayor of new york has introduced a new policy that would allow police to remove and temporarily detain people. they

consider mentally ill tail up mop and takes us through the streets of manhattan to explore the policies more worrying. implications. since taking office new york city, mayor erick adams has been clearing out the homeless encampments that have sprung up across the city. on average, 14 encampments are torn down by authorities each day with a total of roughly $3200.00 being torn down since march. but the encampments keeps bringing up. so now, new york city mayor has rolled out a very controversial new policy to break up homeless encampment sites. the mayor has given the green light to involuntary hospitalization of people deemed to be mentally ill. the book and now be taken off the street and put into mental health facilities against their will. usually for the police to arrest somebody. they have to be committing a crime or posing a threat to others or to themselves under this new measure, which is specifically aimed at homeless people. the police can detain someone if

they show signs simply of being mentally ill, such as being unable to provide for their own basic needs. the civil liberties implications here are enormous. if someone's not breaking the law and they're not threatening anyone, how can the police then detain them? whatever happens to habeas corpus? at this point, people are starting to invoke memories of psychiatric facilities being used to suppress dissidents and totalitarian states of the path. new yorkers can also recall times when interactions with law enforcement have gotten. # quite ugly, the death of eric garner started out as a dispute over whether or not the police should be taking him away. and we can see how that ended up, many or wondering if this new measure from the mayor's office is just a string of new black lives matter incident waiting to happen. but some people look at the rising crime here in the big apple as well as the rising number of homeless encampments and wonder if taking these folks off the street might actually be doing them a favor. hale bopp, m r t new york. huge,

missing and growing 80 trillion dollars and hidden debt is now owed through international foreign currency swaps. that's according to the bank for international settlements, labeled the central bank to the world central banks. the total amount of debt is comp comparable to last year's global g d. p and is 4 times more than the estimated amount of dollars in global circulation. fintech interpreter, chris, i'm told my colleague peter scott, the situation may increase rates for organizations such as pension funds, also risking people's money. up to different figures, say different 687 percent of all of the world's financial transactions. a settled in the us dollar. now like that's really great if you're the usa, right, because you're printing the money, you're controlling the money, you know, how much the friends and you're basically running the global economy through your own currency. where this poses of risk is when i'm in this case, the fed,

which is the u. s. is central bank. well, i need to know how many dollars there actually are in the market. the issue with this that we're seeing now is they just don't know because you've got this off balance sheet debt, which poses a massive problem because the fed needs to find out number one where that money is, is the most important thing because they've got to send it to someone and also how much they need to print and how does this effect of your average person on the streets? obviously, this effects investors, but we mentioned that some of this money belongs to pension funds. if i were a pension or should i be concerned by this? absolutely, you should be concerned drive because this is money that people have been told by the governments, by companies they work for, give us the money and will the cost for you. but the issue is that when you're performing the swaps, what's happening is a sovereign nation is essentially placing their own currency as collateral against the dollar. now what happens then is when, if the dollar drop, they get margin calls, what's called a margin, which basically means some of that money is taken, which means the pension fund could lose shoot amounts of that. those people's money

just by having essentially gambled with it in performing this swap. is there any way that countries can sort of track this money is any way that you know, this can be resolved somehow where the only way to do it is these financial institutions actually reports and are actually obliged to report that off balance sheet money. that's the biggest problem here, is that financial institutions have been able to hide this debt from the walls. so, and that's the, you know, the global economy comes together. and specifically, the us who hold us thought is that really dictate how they used around the world, say, look, you have to report that in your accounting if we get so we know how many they are, all that's really the solution, but whether they'll do it or not that's another question. there is a risk in general right now in the global economy. we just had the covert pandemic where most governments, but to take to the u. s. government printed trillion billions and billions upon trillions of fresh dollars that no one can seem to account for not just here, but in terms of how the stock market just went. zoom the cobra, which made absolutely nice and every market went up. but every market didn't really

go up in my view because, you know, companies were performing well because they weren't because most of their employees that be honest, one, it was hi, am sipping a cup of tea. but the company performed hugely, i'm really that was just the influx of dollars, the now you're just, i think what we're seeing now as we're seeing for domino effect of all these things happening. so i think we're already in big trouble. and this is just another thing that adds to that, that chaos and trouble that we've already experiencing. and that's the rop on the hour's top stories from around the globe for more up to the minute coverage head over to archie dot com. and don't forget to follow up on rebel odyssey, and thanks for checking in, we'll see you again next hour. ah, ah, ah, the
