a trail ah, when so many find themselves will depart, we choose to look for common ground. ah, russia buns, oil export to any country complying with the g $7.00 price cup which is set to come into effect in february. also in the program this hour. did say corrupt of society, i understand that plenty of people running ukraine, the head of a private u. s. miniature group, the trains ukrainian soldiers as the country is corrupt. well, also saying the key of troops have executed russian prisoners of war on depends, are going to continue to delay a response about his role in a deadly air strike in nigeria. back in 2017,

the resulted in more than 100 civilian deaths local residents demanded investigation. we know, and maverick is the war power, but whoever is behind these should be investigated. those who are behind this should be brought to justice. with one minute past 11, am in the morning here in the russian capital. my name is peter scott and his how the world is looking as wednesday gets under way. welcome to the programmer. russia husband, the exports of crude oil and petroleum products to any country complying with the price count that's been imposed by the west. and that's set to come into force in february moscow's branded, it's a violation of international law is r. he's done a quarter with more. this presidential decree outlined 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 international energy markets. now, this western cap on russian oil exports was set at $60.00 a barrel. and this was made in a bid to punish moscow for its military operation in ukraine and even moscow before this, this cap price cap was set. moscow was warning that if such a thing were to happen that moscow would respond with not supplying these countries that go along with the 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. lily we discussed moscow's latest move, with senior research fellow, the global policy institutes of london, george, some wally and jill political analysts, john milan. before we get to the perception that when russia is being sanctioned, left right in time, not able to respond. so this is the response for from the russian president from the russian federation that will set the record straight. that's not going to come in here and play your games as if now the oil and gas for the energy that has controlled wanted in washington, especially the european countries, are the ones that i had to suffer from just decreased by the ones that are really sticking to russia, i do to get them, but not only that within countries that are more of an idea,

yet it would benefit from the resistance of russia. but i want to stop. what this does is makes clear to everybody else in the world that it is not in your interest to go along with g 7, e. you plan to impose the price gap because if you do, then no while for you. and obviously, as you know, russia has pointed out, i think that president putin is want to have repeatedly, it is absolutely nonsensical. the stupidest idea imaginable that consumers can set the price is essentially by doing this by threatening to penalize anyone who joins in with price gap. he's actually getting the support of many countries in the world, the particularly commodities producers who are very upset about the idea that consumers will get to set prices. because of course, when consumers set prices, they are going to set the prices as low as possible. the head of a private

u. s. miniature group. the trains ukrainian soldiers has labeled the country corrupt while also saying that ukrainian fighters have killed russian prisoners of war is eager to done it. with more, the mozart group and american private security company that proudly markets itself as a veteran military force providing training to ukrainian soldiers inside the country . it was founded by retired us marine colonel andrew milburn, who's been repeatedly put in a better style for helping out the key of in this time of need. yet, as it turns out, he is very, very far from a fan of ukraine. 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,

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. let's put food in while melbourne didn't mens his words death. but apparently there's a lot that the mozart group is morally prepared to forgive and forget the cranium in violation of the hey convention. they're filming of a number of things that they're doing with p o. w 's is by the laura laura bomb conflict. you can't kill due to, i mean, every nose surrender, i mean. and then now there was plenty of all this is something you wouldn't expect to hear from the same person who publicly glorify the war in ukraine as just.

and it's far from the 1st contradictory statement from milburn. in fact, his accounts of what's happening on the ground in ukraine have been all over the place in one see in an interview. for instance. the former colonel is unequivocal. all foreign weapons send to you. crane accounted for, i would say that the very last concern that the united states government should have right now is that these arms end up in the wrong hands. and it's almost like his evil twins and appears on c b s. with a statement that sounds the polar opposite. i can tell you on arguably, sat on the frontline units. these things are not getting the right drones switch blades. i fax them off. all right, body on the helmets. you name it. is it safe to characterize this is a little bit of a black hole. i mean, i suppose if you don't have visibility of whether stuff is going and if you're

asking that question, then it would appear that it's black hole. yeah. now cave of course, wasn't impressed by the reporting and somehow managed to bully c, b. s to retract and take down the piece. but there have been heated concerns over western arms and being up on the global weapons, black market. this unverified footage, for instance, proposed to show us and european made rocket launches, meant for ukraine ending up in syria. all this comes as no surprise to anyone who's been following events in ukraine long enough over the years. and the nazi groups like the as a battalion that used to be reputation, li toxic, and officially banned from receiving west and weapons, have now being re branded as heroes. ukraine's own image has been polluted so badly by rampant corruption for years. but this year, key of somehow got the power to send any western media outlet who dares to bring

this up. but as long as this can be weaponized to her, russia, he will continue to have its card blanche contrast with his portrayal in mainstream publications like the new york times, which wrote a puff piece about retired colonel andy milburn. he's kind of a famous figure in marine circles, and now he's running one of the biggest mercenary companies in ukraine, the mozart group. but then here you have him on this military group, be podcast called team house, like after an hour, his speech starts to slur. and then he really starts to lift the mask and says, it's not really about ukraine for him. ukraine is a screwed up society in so many terms. it's run by in his words, sick people and the soldiers are rampantly committing atrocities. actually one of the hosts tries to walk back the term atrocities and he correct them and says, no, these are atrocities and they are being committed there. so as a very candid session drinking session with colonel and melbourne, providing

a view of ukrainian society that he had a front seat to having train so many soldiers. and that u. s. media still refuses to tell americans about as the host of team house said, we can't actually start abandoning our ukrainian partners at this point. even though in the u. s. military, he claimed that you would be done if you film po w's on, on camera being shot in summarily executed, as we've seen from ukraine. but i don't think this will have any repercussions for that war effort as a whole, because this is what the $45000000000.00 already allocated for 2023 by congress, which just clap like seals for zalinski is paying for it's paying for these atrocities. this unprofessionalism and the u. s. military intelligence apparatus is willing to go along with that as long as they get results, what are the results they want? it's what milburn and his buddies in the man cave said they were weakening putin

and destabilizing russia and africa. and other regions suffering from the war and ukraine. the nigerian president has said that weapons initially designated for kids have ended up in the hands of local service groups. he also said that the war threatened his country security. regrettably, the situation in the saw heal and the raging war in ukraine service, major sources of weapons and fights is the boast of the ranks of the terrorists in late chad. region weapons being used for the war in ukraine and russia are equally beginning to filter to the region of the former peace keeper in saddam and malia says that the west has contributed to the instability in africa to, to it's ongoing support of ukraine for my partner the west is only risking its future done if they realize now that everything is more or less lost, but they don't really want to lose face exempt from the west thinks it can always restore its image. but i don't think that's the case at all. they're not in the best position right now. if you look at all these terrorists,

a lot of weapons were acquired by them with the help of the west. in libya, for instance, it was the west that caused everything. and then libya essentially fell. the sa hale origin of africa is now in chaos. these are all the games of the west in my opinion, and moving on now, the pentagon has still not responded to you as congress on america's a legit role in a 2017 as strike in nigeria. that claim more than a 100 civilian lives. back in september, the u. s. secretary defense was called to reveal details on the strike within 90 days. but the deadline has now passed. the intercept publications suggests that the unwillingness to respond may been indication of guilt. the formerly secret african document obtained by the intercept suggests that the u. s. may have launched this rare internal investigation because it secretly provided intelligence or other support to the nigerian armed forces who carried out the deadly strike. according

to the documents seen by the incense u. s. africa command launched a secret investigation just days after the attack that the displaced persons come the documents cold, the air strike an example of u. s. nigerian operations. what's africans, officials have denied any involvement in the incidents. and i, jerry and researcher from human rights watch, says that washington's unwillingness to provide clarity is troubling banter. guns, failure to provide information and tal commence to determine possible u. s. involvement in an ass strike that took manny civilian lives in ne nigeria does not bode well for the u. s. government expressed can make men to transparency and accountability. it sounds a worrisome message that at minimum, the defense department isn't willing to engage on an issue affecting countless lives and may even reflect an attempt to evade responsibility. for those killed in the air strikes had been fleeing the conflict. in ne, in nigeria, where the government's fighting militants, nigerian officials have expressed regrets of the attack. and

a local correspondence brings us more details. 5 years ago and 9 children mutually as tried, hits the civilian camp in the border town of around 180 kilometers from maple gree, claiming that the life of at least 115 people, including children and humanitarian walkers. the pentecost called one investigation into the u. s. military involvement in the atrocity. how strong reaction from me degree residence? i levy as i mentioned it to but she this investigation is very cute because we have waited for so long to know what happened. but no one said anything, even though it's light, we want to know you conducted the attack. we know america is a war paula, but whoever is behind these should be investigated. because these will put evan of making similar mistakes in the future. we don't want this investigation to be politically influenced. a lot of children and families died and some have been made

homeless. so i mentioned are there, even if the air force got such intelligence from america, they should conduct a thorough check on the site before bombing it. it's after a massacre has happened. the 2 countries trade blame when people have died. those who are behind this should be brought to justice and target are heavy censorship. that's how twitter, theo ella must cause describe the culture of social media companies whose policies, according to him, are influenced by the u. s. government. every social media company is engaged in heavy censorship with significant involvement of and at times explicit direction of the government. and loss statements of course follows the reefs of the so called switzer files, which appeared to show the u. s. government influence the social media companies. content moderation, though health, we said that mosque himself, husband journalists, whose views he doesn't agree with, but the latest batch. all sorts of files has revealed that the biden administration puts pressure on the social media giants and show that tweets were in line with its

covey. 19 policy ortiz marina call server has more. 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 the national institute of allergy and infectious diseases and as chief medical adviser to president biden. well, the timing is definitely interesting. do you know anyone who works for a social media platform doin or somebody who works for a social media platform or at this time well, of hunt communications with mark zuckerberg 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 for 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 paid to 1800 and i 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 talk about this. you know, that's the question. have you ever overseen under received a ruling agreement 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 swenton $2000000000.00 in 2021 or a $1000.00 every 2nd. and we now know that the 1st maxine 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 question around and did we know about stopping immunization before it's sent to 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 are some 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 far the commission has refused to release any details about bonder lions roll in its 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 ations 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 sweaters,

cove it policies. so we may need a few more to uncover what lies beneath the billions, if not trillions made during the pandemic. louis public is now calling on congress to investigate links between the fbi, i in social media companies. according to a recent rasmussen report survey shown, especially if the under long says that the pondering provided a profits will build a profitable business opportunity for some u. s. companies, 1st of all, those see americans that whose standards of our free freedom of speech freedom of expression. and of course, that the united states been criticized in countries like china, russia, and other countries for allowing freedom of expression on anything that even threaten their own national security of these countries universally known fact. they're big businesses, especially the so called a military industrial complex is part of the the us government machinery.

so, and then the big oil companies and the big coal companies. so they promote their, their own vested interest in, or even opposing climate change for example. but as to whether or not the big farmer would benefit in definitely, i mean, of course, the, the benefit, the hugely, with all these vaccines a big turn on, you know, they're different types of scenes and, and, and then with different variant. and so, so actually to make a lot of money on that and over to taiwan now, which has decided to extend its mandatory military service from 4 months to one year starting in 2024. now comes as john has begun to ramping up his military service in the taiwan straits over the weekend. and that's just days after the u. s . authorized a massive security assistance package to the island,

jonathans over 70 aircraft, and 7 warships towards taiwan on monday. somebody's officials that was the largest area code to date, and that's after beijing condemned the u. s. s. decision to provide $10000000000.00 in security assistance to taipei, the by did administration labeled the chinese drills in the straits as provocative and reiterated its commitment to the defense. the united states is concerned by the people's republic of china's provocative military activity in your taiwan, which is to stabilizing risks, miscalculations, and undermines regional peace instability. we will continue to assist taiwan in maintaining a sufficient self defense capability in line with our long standing commitments and consistent with our one china policy. attentions between beijing and washington escalated further after us. how speaker nancy pelosi visited 51 back in august on the move spots fury from beijing, which in turn launched unprecedented life fire drills and circling the island. we

took our vice president of the sense of china and globalization, says the u. s. is only funding the flames. do not the states is not doing what president told the chinese leader in body. they are walking the wrong walk. while sometimes they talk to roy talk. if you read the dangerous mind of some of the decision makers in washington, they probably want to be the largest dealer to taiwan, make all the money in the wrongful way, and tried to instigate outbreak of a military conflict. and then they will come to the top of them on claiming themselves as angels. but i think the challenge people on both sides of the taiwan straits has enough wisdom to see through what the united states is doing. because what the united states doing is not for the fundamental interest of the people in taiwan. it is against the fundamental. ready in people of china and

philosophically, it is also against the fundamental interest of the american people. because the american people do not want to see a war proceed on the united states. for the sake of u. s. government support of ty was separated. the main beneficiary of the ukraine war. well, that's how russia's 4 minutes to describe the u. s. role in the conflict in the washington seeking to prolong the term all my footing here with weaponry. the united states has been doing everything possible to prolong the conflict and make it even more violent. the pentagon is openly preparing american defense industry orders for years to come, constantly raising the limit of military spending. the keep resume is being pumped up with the latest weapons receiving samples that have yet to be should to western forces. lillia joe biden signed another a bill to support here this time, amounting to $45000000000.00. and american advisors to ukraine's military said in

an interview to cnn, the washington should approve supplies of cluster munitions, to quote, increase based lethality. the 2008 convention on cluster munitions, bun, such weapons as underneath the devices pose a danger to the public. the documents was signed by more than a 100 countries, including the majority of you states. but russia, the u. s. and ukraine went among them. human and labor rights le duncan, val lake says that the coal for such weapons is reckless. what it will do. it will cause suffering to soldiers and civilians, but i don't think it will help ukraine when the war, they are anti personnel devices. they exist to, to main, and to kill many times civilians. we know that the u. s. has in other theaters provide a cluster bombs, for example, in yemen. i don't think they care about the ukrainian people. if they did, they would have abided by the minsk agreements, but instead they allowed ukraine to continue to attack the don mass

for 8 years, even before the special operations began in february. i is very clear to me that the u. s. will fight russia to the last ukranian the ukrainians are seen merely as cannon fodder for the united states. the european union is one of the main loses of the ukraine, conflicts. that's the message from the former vice chancellor of austin and in seeds, ortiz worlds of pots. now you can see the full version on our web sites, all t dot com. but his quick tisa audrey, i live in put efficient place. we face a situation where political interests are given more importance than freedom of expression and democracy with all of this contradicts the principles of peace, democracy and freedom of speech. but it's a very sad situation which is now happening in europe as citizens, with other opinions faced accusations of treason, stigmatization,

and marginalization doubles. ultima blame that people fail to acknowledge what occurred long before the current events and arm rush of it because of certain incidents, felt itself encircled. and then the initial cou over through the democratically elected ukrainian government. more than 10000 russian speaking people in eastern ukraine died as a result of this school. moreover, we remember the recent comments from former german chancellor angela merkle, who said from the start, nobody took the minsk agreement seriously. nobody expected them to become a basis for long standing peace. obviously, they were signed with only one goal to give ukraine more resources and strengthen it prior to a conflict with russia to buy at time, instead of reaching long lasting peace in europe. such moves were made with full knowledge of their consequences. the e u is one of the main losers of this conflict as the us now dictates its actions.

we see that a record number of companies went bankrupt. corbin, businesses are unable to stay afloat and people are under threat of unemployment yet. many have already lost their job. it's mostly, moreover, we face rising prices. it affects a lot of people. more and more people can't afford to pay for usual goods and services. so europe is suffering to this. in fact, europe is destroying itself. it is losing its competitiveness as industries are moving out of the union. what is the main stories for this? i do head over to r t dot com for more as well as that interview on will to parts. of course, i'm be just gotten back again at the top of the hour. thanks for watching. ah . by any measure, the year 2022 has been transformative, the conflict in ukraine, global inflation, growing food insecurity,

and the west demand that you are with this or against is dominated our attention. on this addition of cross talk, we discussed some of these issues and more hm . mm mm. ready ready ready ready ready ah. ready i never had a boat outside to the log in to leave without the other men. not that it was coming up with a saddam this but the clinic i to viola. oh boy. yeah. type of stuff at the best they thought some bought out so. okay. but i was tell the boy a lesson

for ma'am, a little boy gardener. oh, really for his machine or not, but is obstinate rembrandt, south on it? no, said i would check it, you know? nice. he's going to learn a link. wishing i got a slip on it to chew with, squatter is much more, but honestly it is for the for the nearly a home she need, she is rushed to not but the base nature a fee she did. so do you know, the only chill out of a girl? miss brenda, she lester still asked to do it the autumn, even though it says the bullet got over in the yakima goes crushed to think of nothing. you silly, this really not what she thought. so i thought at that price i do i go home. no sir, you are all.
