that was 2022, sold, the french military leave, the vasa hel region in africa after 8 years. it's on t j. how this operation failing to bring stability to the area, leaving thousands of civilians dead displaced with. and we also look out show like is, must protest last year and worst economic crisis since getting independence. they brought up by economic mismanagement and exacerbated by western sanctions against with reverie or catching the program from today. welcome to moscow and then use our on our team. my name's you know, we start with news from the conflict in ukraine undone bugs, the russian defense ministry has confirmed that 60 free russian soldiers humping

killed in a rocket strike by the ukrainian military in the done yet republic. using nato weaponry. as far as we understand, the attack happened on new year's eve. when i'm joined now by r t z her, she had done of eager, tragic news for the families of the service. and what more do we know? will absolutely yoon and the confirmation has just come in from the russian defense ministry. schools dozens over what is believed to be russian fresh recruits have perished in this artillery attack launched by the ukrainian forces over the new years night. apparently under it was targeting the quarters over these people just outside the city of dynette. in the small town of my cave could basically it is believed that all those russian soldiers, they were stationed at what used to be a vacation. oh, college, it's building, so they were, this was their quarters and this is where at least for high mars rockets,

according to the russian defense ministry. this is what the head, too high mazda projectiles that were intercepted according to the russian defense ministry. now this confirmation has come tucked at the very bottom of monday's media, released by the defense ministry in which they have also listed all the targets that the russians that the russian army managed to hit lately. for instance, they talked how several artillery strikes across the front managed to kill some 74 and mercenaries foreign mercenaries that have been doing the bidding of the ukrainian side that have been worrying on the side of key of the so called foreign legion. now also, but the incident in my cave, for example, it has caused an uproar among the experts among the military experts here in russia . they've been asking questions as to how come so many people were stationed at a feeble or soviet era building. why we're their quarters located in the basements

and under ground, and there have been repeated cause for a serious investigation of this so far, the russian defense ministry has already promised to provide all help it can to the families of those soldiers who have been killed or well wounded as a result of this high mas strike. ortiz shed off, taken us through thought news was russia has intercepted a ukrainian, drew near the old sea coast, still city of bertie that's coming from regional officials. this all verified footage is believed to show the work of earth defense systems. no damage or casualties were reported. last ukrainian drones attack, russia is brianne screeching as well. according to the governor, there are no casualties reported. however, one energy facility was damaged will assure you as well as western russia's vote,

naij region. another ukranian drone reportedly shut down by or defense. as all those developments come after, the russian defense ministry said it recently destroyed a number of ukrainian facilities involved in the production of u, a v. that's unmanned aerial vehicles. the m o d stated it was. busy to prevent kia from carrying out attacks on russian territory. nato chief in stoughton berg said that western countries need to be ready to provide long term military support for k, if comes on friday. he claims the fastest way to peace in ukraine is to provide more weapons in response to that jeff young us them or product party candidate for governor in kentucky said mister stilton berg should face 30 years behind bars for fueling the conflict. it may sound like a paradox, but military support for ukraine is the fastest way to peace if any arctic or it

makes no sense at all, but the fastest path to peace at this point would be for the western united states, nato. to stop sending anything to ukraine except humanitarian aid for the civilians who have been displaced not send any more weapons, any more money. every us president from 945 till the present day has been an aggressor and a war. criminal nato is now under the direction of the united state, and the stove and berg was chosen in order to support us imperialism. so he's a war criminal to specifically and your grade.

after months of violence, the m $23.00 military group may withdraw from several settlements in the democratic republic of congo from thursday that's according to the east african community organization. m 23 is allegedly supported by ro, wanda, neighboring country. but d r c, something it denies. the e u foreign policy chief, whoever isn't convince the you firmly just wanted to stop supporting the m 23. unused old means to press the m 23 to comply with the decisions taken by the a c. it's also firmly just all states of the region to prevent the provision of any support groups active in the d. c. yeah, it comes as tensions escalate once again with ro, wanda, accusing the d r. c, a violating its aerospace for a 2nd time in some 2 months after a military plane, reportedly trespass into ro, wanda's territory on wednesday can shutter out earlier,

denied that the 1st incursion in november was a provocation. calling the incident unfortunate mistake the democratic republic of congo, buck by the you insist upper wanda, is supporting the m 23 militia group on its territory and supplying it with weapons and ammunition. there was allegations have been denied by galley, but according to a u. n. report due to m, 23 scientific ease and increased fighting within the d. r. c. tens of thousands of people have been displaced in the past. number of multiple lo, in attempt to de escalate tensions last awesome. the east africa regional force support canyon fruits. there is peacekeepers. some locals who spoke to us on the basis of remaining anonymous, say the atrocities have intensifies la di, secure it down, who have no security. the people are suffering a lot, the have no access to food. the rabble, saluting everything in the fields. there was no kid not been in our village before, but sees the m 23 war starts. it is become

a frequent problem. many people have disappeared. some have been shot that and others have been taken away to unknown locations. many people have died, both men and women and their bodies have been found in various places and wasn't good. people are kidnapped, women raped, and children killed in mass. it's a situation that terrifies us because we're afraid to what these terrorists are doing. and we're sure could happen in the city of goma. all these young people taken hostage, do not want to be ruled by m 23. we've asked our authorities to address the situation. we fear the worst, because terrorists, respect human rights. and it's shameful to see all these organizations that are supposed to protect human rights sitting on their hands in the face of such suffering, yet them bow a bendy while 2022 saw the end of an 8th year french military operation in the uranium rich west african region of the cell, the so called operation bohannon, left thousands of civilians killed, displaced under the premise of fighting islamist terrorists ortiz carrabas,

let tata recaps the hi. this is may try the former colonial power in africa. france is fast using influence on the ground. and in the continent, this waved, if attempt to keep the power posture phrase president de manuel micron and i was in you africa strategy to be launched in 6 months. this is his government's response. as france pulls out of the say or read it, the strategy is big one, ambition, but little on detail. france remains resolutely committed to the security of the continent, acton, and support. and at the request of far african partners, is from us really winning. or is it playing out a leg the 2020, to cut our welcome final, the former colonizer claims. it remains committed to security in the region with a straight face. perez fez. this as is until 3rd and mission operation. bar con,

came to an inglorious end. in the field of perception, berkin continues to occupy a very important presence of social networks. it is necessary to put a clear end to it in order to switch to another logic. but it will also be logical for any one to consider operation bar cause a failed mission, spending 8 years in this a hell. it barely lived up to his promise. there is no noticeable change in the conflict. what bed that is this a hell and f for france? ye how this are not only still in the region, but they seem to be gaining momentum. according to the united nations, civilians have been displaced in their millions and they have also been killed in their thousands. the deepening of the protection crisis negatively affected the already dire humanitarian situation. the number of internally displaced persons rose to 397000 in the center in the course of the country. more than 1800000 people

faced severe food insecurity. and 2000000 children under the age of 5 are affected by acute malnutrition. francis, if one is to invest in said history and culture with french speaking countries. but what correlation is there between uranium mines in northern the j frasier, power plants, and french troops on the ground. and formerly froze is a transactional colonial power. the transitional government demands prism a cron permanently abandoned his new colonial but on the loose stick and patronize imposture to understand that no one love smalley more than moderns. in a monday letter to the united nations security council in august, miley, i choose from this a violations of its air space to collect intelligence for the benefit of terrorist groups in the sale and drop arms and ammunitions to them. and chaired,

edit to french, was lamenting frances interference in his domestic affairs. the french president insisted french remain pan african language in the face of former french colonies, lake royal, under rejecting it for english. instead, france was being rejected as an ally and rather viewed of a hangover of colonial times. instead of being humble, france blames russia and others. a number of powers who want to spread their influence in africa are doing this to hurt. france, hurt its language so doubts, but above all, but su, certain interests for more than 3 decades. france seemed entrenched and rooted on the continent, self assured, and even some mighty khaki in its arrogance by 2022 from the year of humble lessons

for the former, colonizer friends, diplomacy on the continent is being reviewed. and a different partner is being sought. only time will tell if this is a bad page, or if africa is really ready this time to bid fronts. oh god, i will if that velocity in johannesburg. okay, from africa to asia, turning a focus to sri lanka were mass protest ripped the country. in 2022 dissenting voice is heard. there were largely aimed a government economic mismanagement and a rush to implement green policies about her south asia. correspondence takes us through now. the situation was exasperated by western sanctions against russia. 2022 has been a year or stronger for sri lanka. the country faced its worse our economic crisis since it got independence and 1948. the economic crisis soon spiraled into

a political and humanitarian one. in april, sri lanka defaulted on billions of dollars of external dead leaving die the nation with no food, no fuel, and no medicines. at least half a 1000000 people fell into poverty and then not to forget the western sanctions on russia and 2022 that dragged the whole world into economic chaos. and further bunch of countries like sri lanka, that we're all ready struggling. do you think sanctions will help? it will only push prices up. so let's start with what's possible. let us look at the sanctions that have been imposed and ask ourselves if it's necessary, the sanctions won't bring russia to its knees, but they will bring the rest of the 3rd world to its knees. what followed was daily parlor blackouts, wide spread, protest on the streets, lendy keel was outside betral stations, and all of that led to the fall of the long standing roger buckshot,

government. oh, in july this is war tree longer look like government offices run or war. public broadcaster hijacked presidential dallas ransacked prime minister's office, set ablaze, and president having to flood the country on ceremoniously a little port are based in south asia. i half covered numerous pro. yes. or what a decade. but nothing compares to what she, lunk a witness this year. what, how did things go so bad? she, lunk, on the biggest industries at 2 to them and agriculture explored say,

while the corona, water, a spend to make cans, the tourism sector ban on chemical fertilizers, introduced by the then president, go with i be a roger buckshot damaged the agricultural sector, the import dependent country ran out of money as its reserves completely depleted in november 2019 our foreign exchange reserves were at 7.5 $1000000000.00. however, today it is a challenge for the treasury to find $1000000.00. we must prepare ourselves to make some sacrifices and faced the challenges of this period. i'll, we bend. good bye to 2022. the q was have gone away, but not the being. the supply is have someone priest on what the inflation remains . the new government was hoping to get a $3000000000.00 bill out package from the i. m f. my december. but to secure that and had to renegotiate loans with its for lend does tighten budget spendings and booths, revenues simply means wat trouble for the island nation. of 22000000 people range

and sharma. r t. well, 2022 also. so the west press on we're trying to sell green solutions to essentially the entire continent of africa. this year's u. n. conference and climate. you insult to push african countries away from traditional sources of energy in favor of so called environmentally friendly policies. despite the costs and consequence is all about. and j i, u. k executive head of an african energy law group sees the west mission, is hurting the resource rich continence potential. with the criticism from western countries, especially d, e. u is clearly unfounded and unjust, and not. ready right, thing to do when you're an african country lecturing them about one thing. they're doing something on the other side. african countries know that our resources are critical for our roles, for i'm sure lies ation for us having a,

just a transportation for us to leave. all of them are people out of poverty, but also for us to be energy poverty. we realize that right now, at this time, we have no choice but to fail our right to use our resources. that includes our natural gas and cold, in some cases, to drive up for life station. we have 600000000 people in the continent without electricity, 900000000 without access to most of them. we cannot leave them behind our resources. i t. r of leasing people out of poverty, i'm sure enough industrialization and creating jobs, especially for young people and women in africa. so we have no choice but to spend a bigger us. they are right to use our resources. now

despite germany finance minister recently saying that he expects inflation to draw to 7 percent in 2023 high inflation continues to be a major concern in the world or to contribute to chris. and this has been taking a deeper look into the matter. one of the most commonly used was this year was inflation, according to google searches for the word fraud report between 20202022. why the southern interest in this standard economic term inflation across the west search the unprecedented levels during 2022 hits on average 11.5 percent across the u. while in the u. s. supposedly the world's strongest economy, inflation climb to as high as 9 point one percent. but what does that mean for you and i, let's use an example. let's say you had to the supermarket to deal weakly shop. and last is inflation with 0 percent. but this is inflation is 10 percent. that means

that you have 2 options. pay 10 percent more than you paid for the exact same shopping you bought at the exact same supermarket last year. or if you can't afford it or can't borrow enough to do so, you'll need to remove 10 percent worth of the items from your trolley. that's pretty hard if you're trying to get by on the beverage central's. sounds like something else of a charles dickens novel, doesn't it? but this is actually a reality that millions of people face this year. what's more, western politicians appears to be entirely clueless about the matter. take a look at by the telling the while the us inflation was 0. when reality it had reached the peak of 9 point one percent. actually i just want to say a number 0. today we received news that our economy had 0 percent inflation in the month of july 0 percent. that came as a shock the christine, the god. the current head of the european central bank inflation has just

pretty much come about from nowhere. apparently, inflation came out of nowhere. this is even more shocking. as before her current highly paid job, she had another such lucrative employment as the head of the international monetary fund. that's the institution that controls the monitors, the entire global financial system. but have no fear. western lead as a quick to provide us with an explanation why you guess it. as per usual, it's all vladimir putin, it's false. today's place report, confirm what america is already no. prudent price. i consider america hard. make no mistake in places largely the fall of proteins invasion of the crate is driven up gas prices and food prices all over the world. i'm going to do everything i can to minimize prudent price. i care at home, they fail to mention that over the past 24 months, the us and its allies,

the printed of boss amounts of money. not seemingly understanding, but for every single extra bank note you prints. each bill becomes more and more worthless, thus giving this money to institutions and companies that have reduced the monitoring goods and services due to a more or less global lockdown would have a knock on effect. printing. vast amounts of money tends to always cause what economists call hyper inflation. even a basic history book who show you this, the 1st example in modern history was the 929 more st. crash which contributed to the di, economic conditions in germany, which led in parts to the rise of adult hits law and the nazi party. there are now double the amounts of us dollars in circulation than in 2019, no wonder in placed me through the roof. when there was twice as much of the walters, the currency circulating for the same amounts of goods and services. that's so economy is not growing substantially due to the freeze, forced upon the more or less by the global locked down juice,

the coven. 19. so what's the solution, and how do we get back to normal central bank feel that they have the answer? that's right. you and i need to pay more in order to fix the mess that they have caused. right now the central bank of the u. s. e, u and u k. are increasing the rates that you and i have to pay the credit credit that many of us are being forced into due to be inflated price of goods and services. these accord interest rates, which is set a baseline by all governments. the banks justify this by telling us that they are being hit by the rising goods and services and need to charge us more so that they won't go bankrupt. that's not to mention the rob a possible claim that they also need to charge us more in order to fund billions upon billions of its ukraine in order to combat the energy crisis caused by the sanctions on russian oil and gas. don't we all wish that we could offset our mortgage or credit card payments against someone else? unfortunately, the wall doesn't work like that for you and i, but it does for them. so what is the knock on effects of this?

the less money you have, but less you are going to buy $1.00 to max out your credit card, which now cost even more of payoff due to the increase interest. you become significantly poor if you are poor up. so if your country and thus we start to see a steep decline into. busy poverty for entire countries. it isn't rocket science to what this one out. but it's not all doom and gloom for some, especially if you are american inflation in the u. s. and across major european countries. so sometimes of flowing thanks to a number of restrictive measures conducted by institutions. halting among many things, the printing of yet more dollars into the now hyperinflation. casino we call the global economy. us lawmakers have just passed the inflation reduction act which has been met with pure disbelief by lawmakers globally. but predominantly those in the u that have been seemingly nothing that had some complying with us fiscal demands over the past few years with little to no resistance. this act is an isolationist

policy by the united states, incentivizing domestic productions of goods, putting foreign partners out and forcing them to produce goods and services inside the u. s, which is added to the already ravaging energy crisis and sanctions will become a catastrophe for the global economy. this means that as goods and services are produced domestically in the us, they will become cheaper for us consumers. whereas for anyone else outside the us that is used to buying cars, made in their country of origin, prices will become boston more expensive. this further implies the price for the rest of us, but decreases the price for anyone in the us. in layman's terms, this will result in the u. s. economy, but best thing, the effects of the past few years on that people but increasing the pain and suffering for every one else. the inflation reduction act has received so much additional scrutiny in europe and also in the rest of the world. there is

a risk that the i r a can lead to unfair competition, could close markets. and that's fragment, the very same critical supply chains that have already been tested by colored we are in europe really at the point where we risk to be de industrialized. we have to react with strength now. so is it too late for global leaders to best the effects and counts of the us at this quite obvious game it is playing? well, the answer to that is difficult. the u. s. also controls the world's was the currency, the us dollar. most global governments in that central bank hold large amounts of dollars and bonds. at deflated us economy means that the cost of buying dollars will decrease. will this be enough to save the global economy? in my view, this is a huge gamble, no wonder, so many countries have had enough and now moving away from holding and trading in

us dollars. they are now opting to hold currencies that have not been printed like, monopoly money, such as the chinese one, the russian rouble, even bitcoin. if the u. s. dollars ceases to be the be all and end of global finance. governments worldwide will have more sovereignty over their own finances in economies leading to a far more democratic, multi polar walls. that will be a true free market. something that the us allegedly for its war of independence for and finally this news are in the year just gone. india made clear its interest and being a major stakeholder in a most people are world new delhi officials repeatedly stress up the south. asian country will not be pressured by any state. i bring to you the greeting. soft 1300000000 plus people from the world's largest democracy. we don't need to be told

watch to do on democracy. we are resolved to make india. i've developed country in the next 25 years, we will liberate ourselves from a colonial mindset. externally. this means reformed multilateralism and more contemporary global governance for somebody. if i didn't get buying a roll of oil from russia, i said the europeans buy more than one optimal. and then i do an appointment. i have a moral duty to my consumer, you know, will respond according to its supreme national interest. look, let me make it very clear. india will buy oil from where they would it has to, for the simple reason that this time of discussion cannot be taken to the consuming population of india. people need to understand if you can be considered to be yourself, surely you can reconciliate of other people. so if you're up say, is look up, we have to manage it in

a way in which it's impact on my economy is not traumatic. oh doc, doc, freedom, all duck choice should exist for other people as well. countries in europe and the west and the united states as focused on why don't they allow iranian oil to come into the market? why don't the la venzano oil to come into the muck? i mean, they've squeezed every other source of oil. we have and then say ok guys, you must not go into the market and get the best deal for your people. i don't think that's a very fair approach. you could ask, why would anybody naisha, trust europe on anything at all? and europe has to grow out of the mindset that europe's problems are. there was problems, but there was problems or not europe's problems. discussing the current state of u. s. europe relations. i mean, the backdrop of the ukraine conflict. it is cross talk next, catch, peter, and guess for there are 1st i think all the.
