confirming that k it's troops executed russian war prisoners. a very well welcome. you're watching aussie international with the latest the world news update is good to have you with us. now, president putin and how find a decree in response to the western price count on russian oil shipments. moscow will abandon the export of crude and petroleum products to foreign companies and nationals who apply the restrictions. ortiz donald quarter explains as presidential decree outlines special economic measures being taken in response to the western price cap on russian oil exports that was put into place earlier this month. according to the statement, russia will no longer supply oil to countries. going along with this scheme, effective february, 1st of next year, up until july 1st. and since president vladimir putin made this decree, we've seen the prices of crude oil as well as gas go up across the board in the
4:02 pm
international energy markets. now, this western cap on russian oil exports was set at $60.00 a barrel, and this was made in a bids to punish moscow for its military operation in ukraine. and even moscow before this, this price capitalist that moscow was warning that if such a thing were to happen, that moscow would respond with not supplying these countries that go along with this scheme with oil. so this response is really not something that surprising. we should also not forget that much of the west has already completely embargoed russian oil. so this kind of price cap sets is really set up for countries 3rd party buyer countries such as india, for example, or china trying to bring them into the fold of the west foreign policy goals. and we've seen all across latin america, africa, and asia, that very few countries are willing to go along with that. earlier on tuesday,
4:03 pm
russia's foreign minister said moscow has friends in many parts of the world and therefore doesn't need to focus on partnering with the you. we can see how the ruling circles of your countries are acting to the detriment of the vital interests and well being of their own citizens. it's enough to mention as an example, the u. s. ban on european states to maintain a dialogue with our country and the energy sector. of course, there will be no more business as usual with such calendar parties. we don't intend to knock on a closed door or initiate any joint projects. luckily, the e u is not the only partner for us. we have many friends and like minded states and other parts of the world. if and when there is a bitter hang over on the european side from the current wrist of phobic. rage followed by sobering up if there are clear nationally oriented politicians who understand the advantages of an equal and mutually beneficial partnership with russia. i assure you there will be no problems on our side. that's not cross to
4:04 pm
georgia, samuel, a senior research fellow at the global policy institute. think time in london may. thanks for joining us on the program. george. so could you talk us through the ramifications of this? russia responds to the price cap, please. you well, as your car is, wanda pointed out, so this is entirely predictable. and this is what russia had warned that it will do . and of course, the e u. the g 7 already committed to not purchasing any oil from russia. you know, as of the end of this year, but what this does is make clear to everybody else in the world that it is not in your interest to go along with this g 7 e. you plan to impose the price guy. because if you do then note while for you and
4:05 pm
obviously, as you know, russia has pointed out, they go, the president to repeat. it is absolutely nonsensical. the stupidest idea imaginable that consumers can set the price. so essentially, by doing this, by threatening to penalize anyone who joins in this price gap is actually getting the support of many countries in the world. the particularly commodities producers who very upset that. but the idea that computers will get the set prices, because of course, when you assess right, that they are going to set the prices as low as possible as already some expense according this development to revolution on the oil market. what exactly do they mean by that? well, if the revolution was, would've been, if the, this oil price gap had succeeded. i mean, if you know that would be a revolution. i mean, the, the whole notion that consumers can set the price is not because
4:06 pm
if you are the consumer how much you want to pay it. i mean, like, assume they want to pay nothing. and therefore, the price that they will pay will be much less than the cost of production. so it makes no sense. but the strange thing was that it was sold, capital is power the power. suppose understand the workings of the market that embark on this profoundly anti capitalist cause of going against market prices. and we're doing the kinds of things that were used to associate with socialist countries. they would set a price. and of course, when you set a price that creates shortages, and then of course, the shortage is create inflation and creates much higher prices down the road. and that's fairly obvious economics. but this is the course that the g 7 set. and so, how difficult could it be for russia to read direct is all exposed to other
4:07 pm
countries? i think it's quite easy to do because this is something that is a precious commodity. everybody needs it and gotta get, there's not difficult at all to find new buyers. it's, if you are a producer, you're always in a strong position. if you are a consumer, particularly the europeans, because the americans are in a special case because america is a major, major energy producer of the europeans, oil consumers. but them is very difficult because they are the ones who have a problem. they're the ones who are going to have to go to other countries and say, can you satisfy our oil needs? and that's almost impossible because basically, you know, lisa will a contract. i've done a long time in advance and he needs a long term contract. you're going just on the turn around the say, well, can you ship us lots of oil to meet our needs?
4:08 pm
so europe in there is a lot of trouble with every step but constantly trying to assess how to, how effective the western sanctions have really been. so far upon russia been considering that russia seems to be increasing its oil export revenue. what do you think? i think it's been completely ineffective because russia was always able to switch its production bug and oil and gas to other consumers. and particularly when you got boil and gas and energy hungry economies in india and china and east asia, it raises often difficult for russia to redirect its export. and, you know, given what the same, the effect of the sanctions was to raise prices. when you raise prices and obviously you raise revenue. so even if russian exports down as a result of the sanctions, because prices have been escalated,
4:09 pm
russia is making more money than it's ever done. again, that should have been fairly obvious, but that's, that has been the consequence. and then this price gap, which was meant to address that issue have the reference of making more money than before is, again, is just in the faster lated. because, you know, you're again creating artificial shortages, which simply jack up prices. so it's the, the europeans in particular who have suffered as a result of the sanction most discretions of russian life. but you know, this very well, they look, russian life has remain fairly unchanged. that can be said that this is the true of europe. george me, thanks for joining us on the park on this evening or was appreciate your time with speaking to georgia is some early thank you. thank you very much. can i, jerry and now where petra, short jazz had caused prizes to skyrocket with the latest report by the national b over of statistics showing it to
4:10 pm
a matic spike in transport costs compared to last year. according to the reports nigerians and now paying 97 percent more for domestic flights and 45 percent move above tickets. in comparison to november last year from post february feel shortages spread from the cop. so to other parts of the country, as a result of the crisis patch stations are selling field at higher prices than the one fixed by the government. while black markets speculation is rising, the countries only in port field and i, jerry and it national petroleum company, says it has enough stock, but there are problems with this distribution. this comes from the global energy crisis with restrictions based on the import of washing gas. jerry and politician abdominal gob of the 2nd say the anti russian sanctions. i provoked the smuggling of oil from his country. i g, i use like everyone on 3 and the ward is grossly dependent on energy. so when you have our fuel prices grain, all it means that you have high rate of very high possibly be on the situation is completely not connected with a series of nobody,
4:11 pm
even on the sanction that is imposed on russia regarding for an invitation due to the war between russia, ukraine, is that true? what is affected? what you see when docile, shawn, what's imposed by the provincial all? it is supposed to been if it was an idea of part of the export of poil. what is unfortunate that there are so many criminal gung in cannot once we bail for him, but but us mobility out oil in nigeria. well, the quota from or pick to produce about one point it to point 2000000 bottles. plenty. but as i'm talking to, you know, almost 500002 several 100 told on bought it by day he's been stolen out of nigeria . he won't door this shift that but on our shoals are just douglas hammon. numbers can be tracked, can be located and you know, in niger i will open it. what is going to help you do to zim? usually what we do is we export well and import the refined proposal. so only
4:12 pm
important if i for a dog, we sorta die. so dad, average nigerians can benefit from fortunately we have a dissertation because of the short form in our group will export not you don't have enough money to continue to substitute a g. so the best solution is to get the subsidy. so by that, we're going to subsidy the private or keep getting a higher the head of a private u. f. military credit that trains ukrainian trips has slammed the country as corrupt. one of my thing, he only helps can do to psycho the global norms of fighting against russia and as president andrew melbourne, made the revelations during a casual interview posted on line. it's a corrupt of society the let you know. so i'm not, i'm not a big fan of ukraine. it's not about ukraine. we're not like, i have to have, you know, you ukraine flank tied to my bag, but i'm not, oh my god,
4:13 pm
ukraine. so awesome. no, because it's i understand that plenty of people running ukraine. it's not bad that it's about global norms. right. right. that's about fusion. and melbourne is a retired us marine colonel with over 31 years of military service. according to official forces. his military group is only training ukrainian sho soldiers and is not involved in any fighting. however, the name of mozart is a deliberate counsel point to the russian volcano group that is fighting on the don't bass front line mobile and also i think you should go all in and provide as much military help to ukraine as possible. meanwhile, melbourne shed another startling revelation about how ukrainian soldiers are indiscriminately killing russian prisoners of war that's less than in the craniums ah, in violation of harm. her. hey, convention. they're filming off a number of things that they're doing with her. p. o w's is finite in laurent on
4:14 pm
laura vom conflict and he kind guys, right, killing russian presences. right. you know, these are electronic anomaly solis. i mean irrigation kill is inc. old dudes who, i mean every knows who surrendered them in on. and then now there was plenty of the videos published about a month ago, but started making headlines just now. now, obviously mister milburn and his mercenary group, mozart or some of the major players on the side of ukraine. his comments, however, are very controversial and haven't really been consistent back in april of this year. he tried to assure the world that there is no leak of nato supplied weapons to ukraine into the wrong hands such as those of the terrorist. now he claimed that everything was under his group's control. i would say that the very last concern
4:15 pm
that united states government should have right now is that these arms end up in the wrong hands. now that optimism offer mr. milburn displayed back in april has completely vanished and he said something completely of the opposite when he was quoted as one of the sources. and celia on cbs is a special report about to weapons that were disappearing in ukraine. native lied weapons, mines you and who are that have been turning up in a black markets. i can tell you on arguably that on the frontline units, these things are not getting there. alright and drones switch blades. i facts. they're not, are body armor helmets. you name it is, is it safe to characterize this is a little bit of a black eye. i suppose it's you don't have visibility whether stuff is going. and if you're asking that question then it would appear that it's black hole. yes. now
4:16 pm
that is something that we have discussed here on our tea many times, and this topic was discussed in the europe or as well. now, europe is of course, the most vulnerable in this situation due to its proximity to ukraine and all the weapons that are being stored, supplied by an 8th, all in ukraine's. a western ports very close to the rest of for europe. but so for the problems of black market weapons hasn't been on a massive scale in europe. however, this problem is already on the african continent. now, according to nigerian presidents, are muhammad do, oh, hoary. he says that his words, that the war there between russia and the ukraine, is allowing arms and fighters to stream to the lake charge region. and this is bolstering the capitol capabilities of a local word terrorist. so the question and now remains, is ukraine,
4:17 pm
which is presented as a shining beacon of democracy. now, are there any morals left there or is it a conflict completely fueled by interests? the reason to release that twitter files i opened a pandora's box and revelations on how far washington is prepared, prepared to interfere in social media and even the personal health choices of citizens. just to keep its grip on the narrative is the latest in a string of western government scandals this year. ne marina concert. thanks. thanks. the latest leaks of the now notorious twitter files show that washington was manipulating what users online saw regarding coven vaccines. well maybe that's because key figures had something to gain from it. let's take a look at doctor anthony found t. this is america's top a health official. and he just announced that he'll be stepping down as the head of
4:18 pm
the national institute of allergy and infectious diseases. and as chief medical adviser, surprised and biden. well, the timing is definitely interesting. do you know anyone who works for a social media platform doin or somebody who works for social media platform or at this time? well, i've had communications with mark zak, a berg in the past. do you know anyone else who works for a social media platform? other than mark zuckerberg, when you say, do i know somebody who works? like do you have acquaintances, people that you know who work at social media platforms? well, a person who used to work as a software engineer for twitter was my daughter. so america, top health officials, daughter, worked with twitter, so in a position to potentially alter a few things according to her dad's wishes, who was in a position to benefit from people getting vaccinated. 27000 royalty payments were
4:19 pm
paid to 1809 and i age employees. can you tell me that you have not received a royalty from any entity that you ever oversaw the distribution of money in research grants? oh, well, 1st of all, let's look about where it was last, you know, that's the question. have you ever overseen under or received a lawyer payment from a company that you later oversaw money going to that company? you know, i don't know was a fact, but i doubt it. joe biden's, chief medical advisor isn't sure if he profited from the pandemic excellence. well, we know how much wiser made $22000000000.00 in 2021 or a $1000.00 every 2nd. and we now know that the 1st vaccine that was sold to the masses in america both literally and figuratively, wasn't even tacit for efficacy before it answered the market. regarding the
4:20 pm
question around and did we know about stopping immunization before it's enter the market? now, at these and you know, we had to really move at the speed of science to really understand what is taking place in the market. and from that point of view, we had to do everything at rest. it's hardly surprising than that across the pond. the e. u prosecutor's office has now opens an investigation into coven, maxine purchases with all eyes on the european commission of presidents. it seems that arsole of underlying exchange, if you text messages with visors c, e o, before cementing the multi 1000000000 euro contract, acquiring 4500000000 doses for 450000000 people. well maybe this case will shed some light on her involvement because so for the commission has refused to release any details about bonder lions roll in its
4:21 pm
negotiations. the commission can confirmed the search undertaken by the president's cabinet for relevant text messages corresponding to their quest for access to documents has not yielded any results. we asked the commission to provide us with information on the preliminary nego stations for this agreement. scientific experts consulted and advice, received timing of the talks, records of the discussions, and details of the agreed terms and conditions. however, none was forthcoming. hardly surprising. well, it took a couple of years to get the league slinking, washington suits whether it's cove it policies, so we may need a few more. so uncover what lies beneath the billions, if not trillions made during the pandemic. ukrainian president zalinski has had what he's described as a poll that have phone call with india's prime minister. and along of the key at the top diplomat accused new delhi of capitalizing on the ukraine conflict by cooperating with russia. the opportunity for india to buy russian oil at
4:22 pm
a cheap price comes from the fact the ukrainians are suffering from russian aggression and dying every day. if your benefit because of our suffering, it would be good to see more of your help addressed to us. and your deli based foreign affairs observer safety, ukrainian presidents, controversial track record means k of can't be trusted to uphold any sort of new piece. dale. again and ski has said that he expected india to do to come in and mediate a 5 piece. but the question he is he is ready for the piece. because as we know, after when this military of, within the started to have to once been 2 months, then we have negotiate group therapy that he had mediated between both countries. and we had received news that some, some stuff can feel that had been
4:23 pm
a few of them, but suddenly he, he backed out. so every entity that didn't sky i had you is not an independent lip. he is here. his policy over his this quarter was, is really can toward long term we have, we all know what i mean. some, some with it's wrong. you know, natal headquarters was long that united states and cranes foreign minister has proposed holding peace talks of the un. but without inviting moscow to the table. he says it wants to organize such a summit by the end of february, ukraine's talk. diplomats emphasize the key of the piece formula does not currently include russia. well, they knew delhi based foreign affairs observer. we spoke with again, added that western countries don't actually want to pace in ukraine. is they using the nation as a tool against question?
