new delhi and ma school. now of course, so as far as treat between the 2 countries is concerned or all the sectors as well, we seeing that one of all time high. but for the agenda for the foreign minister needs this week really is multilateralism food and energy security. also, development corporation need for reforms for november more the government to show leadership on. but of course, there are challenges that lie ahead for india to insure the global fall words. they really keep their focus on long term issues. for example, climate change of force, food and, and g crisis that several countries are seeing right now. the continuing effects of the fan demik also, for example, rather than the transitory issue was all such as conflicts and global up and ship. something that be so happened last week during the finance ministers, me in,

bang lou, there was no consensus there. something that also remember happened in our g 20 summit in bali last november. now of course, so as far as this visit is concerned, it is extremely significant. apart from the g 20 foreign ministers meet, they're also going to be bilaterals. that of course we're going to keep a track all saw about as far as in the r g 20000 been so you can send. it comes at a time of a global kills global flux, really where the world paul, both all divided all the russia, you cream conflicts, and therefore it becomes a little tricky for india, but like the prime minister of the country, you said it wants to play the role of a problem solver, also of course at india all of them, there's going to be a time to play magic balancing act that will be required, of course. so ah, today's going to be an informal awe day, not later in the evening,

but tomorrow is also a fall will back scheduled. and of course we're going to keep a track off with the fat. okay, another story we're cross to day the race to take over the presidential reigns in nigeria has finally been cold with the ruling parties, candidate bullet to sing off to main opposition, hopefully in africa's most populous nation. with will the electoral commission declared mister to new boot representing the center left. all progressives, congress was president, a leg after he secured 37 percent of the ballot. that's 8 percentage points and millions of votes more than his nearest rival, former vice president akiko a boot, but car, who claimed the election result current was rigged. the apc described that reaction

as sour grapes and urged abu bakar on the labor party candidate peter obee to concede with long time kingmaker bola to new having already given his victory speech. ah advance your very well as the c a at the election had been a key talking point of course among nigerians for weeks in the bills up and now after the vote debate still raging with the integrity of the counting process in the spotlight. newspaper sentence have become a focal point where people gather to chew over the raft of developments. ortiz corolla, top to reports. now from the country's largest city. this is life in nigeria. it's never easy. and in lagos, in particular, tough is the idea of the day. here on the busy ellen road,

it's always thronging with the hustle and bustle of those making their way to and from work school and going about their daily lives. people here gather around newspaper spans, ready to i'd you, you down. no, my bit by lead. ringback back on my map i did it in is when when i was more how it wasn't with a news about is very important. do you see that live with it in north africa? the resolve of the lecture strickland. the question on everyone's lips is, which of the local newspapers people can trust since 2005 or don't even adelphia has been selling newspapers here and listening to the argument every single day. but why does he do it in then get a revised dividend marketing strategy. we can see it cuz it

has the life conference session that people, you know, a lot of people let number of people come here. and by the way, you can, i've been displayed again for 2 decades, missed our dog, has been opening up this newspaper stand and listening to the mostly the working class common, read the headlines and discussed amongst themselves the direction in which the country's going, the turbulence and shenanigans of nigeria is $22030.00 presidential. alimentary elections have left no mouth close for what we saw in the election. a lot of people did. what's really happening there are like you do. just want to hear what they want to come to. must is, don't, they don't do that, you know, we have, i hid 4 bowls that you may leave all the men issues of the off what,

what is really going on as well. can look at this a little know what this election. but in this age of exhibition of them being 1st and on social media, how does he think that the nigerian journalism has conducted itself during this most tenuous of election thieves will, newspaper outlet out live, much more accessible. so so media and it's cohort is already address no dimension media you see fit to the cong because the people that honda to show media not provision of the don't take missed out with over himself. it's not just a newspaper merchant, but a journalist for over 37 years. nothing can drown his passion and thought he has them of others who have the tradition to gather around newspaper stands to guarantee a national discussion. got a bill it's that's

a full out of tea in lagos, nigeria. ah, well, the money will micron is embarking on a 5 day tour to africa, but many resident in the democratic republic of congo, which will be his final stop, are making it clear. the french president seemingly is not welcome. protesters gathered in the capital can shops wielding signs comparing mccaul to the m 23 insurgency group in the country, which has been on a rampage and eastern bordering region. not while the french embassy was spray painted with a message, mac call get lost. similar sentiment has been growing across the continent with molly and berth. keena foster also recently demanding the immediate withdrawal from speaking upper keynote. also who i got to go has revoked a 61 year agreement on military assistance with france. it comes after paris ism

bus teacher and french troops pulled out of the width african country ortiz. no, no you can get, can tell us more. became a foster has indeed terminated a 1961 military assistance deal with france. and this, of course, coming in just a few weeks off the, telling the french ambassador and troops backing is an insurgency campaign to leave the nation. it seems like keener for, for, has had enough of any sign of colonialism that it is taking every measure possible to end these ties, at least at the military level. i think it's also important to note that pensions with france at the political level in both nations, have been accompanied by anti french demonstrations and social media criticism. so this has not to come as a surprise in was expected. he, even though the expectation was not at this level, according to reports, the move, what marks a further downward spiral in relations,

since the military toppled became as elected president last year. and you'd remember that a few weeks ago, french president emanuel mac, ron did say he was awaiting clarification from booking for the transitional president about this decision. so it seems like the decision came in a sooner than expected. so now we wait to see how president mclaren will deal with this since he is in the continent. currently, a turning attention from africa to the middle east where protest hover opted in several is really cities including tel aviv, where stun grenades. i've been fired a demonstrators as they clashed with the countries more enforcement protesters block the main highway that connects televi, venture islam waving flags and shunting anti government lollies. of course, the country broke out turns is really officials proceed with

a controversial judicial reform program. it includes the rights of ruling elite to limit the power of the supreme court, which current excess kind term balance to the executive branch. a correspondent maria phenomena is among the colleagues. i can get with

the government done by somebody with his own interest is to avoid a. c to this new system in israel. so he's trying to change the law and the rule of the world. so that kind of thing, a democracy will become a dictatorship, that kind of them always with intelligence, events, or government demonstrations, went out of control and turn violence after protest. last with police forces the hard line against wylie grid. conditions of the mass. scattering police gas grenades easier about 11 people in the others were arrested later time. and it's been been yahoo gate green lights to as to the year crackdown. we will not allow violence against police officers, the blocking of highways in the gross violation of the laws of the state. the right

to demonstrate is not a right to anarchy. i give my full backing to the national security minister and the officers of the israeli police who are acting against lawbreakers who are disrupting israeli citizens daily lives. a cane israel is have been filled with failing to bring feed for the 7th grade. i recently over you may say they science flemish funny. this is, i'm really, really was a must be some corrections. that must be some of the relation. i'm worried about a all the power, but it doesn't really mother. if you're on the list of that i, i know i'm happy with her there on wednesday, vic mad israeli,

a rating with serving as the prime minister. that would be a. a commercial bill that is a, as the size in the special a saving by the countries high for so for now these bills are at their preliminary stage, or is the big time that they need more falling with reading. people ready? ready theory that these mails will be approved with will

be heard before that happens with a direct threat to the security of americans. that's how the u. s. republican senator ted cruz has labeled that decision by brazil to allow to iranian worship to dock and rio de janeiro. the story quickly drew the attention of renown journalist, glen greenwald, known for breaking the edward snowden story, who rang the alarm over, quote, us up our prosy. we've been hearing for years that ukraine has the right to host whatever foreign, military or alliances at once, and russia has no say in it. yet ted cruz thinks he can dictate to brazil a country thousands of miles away, which ships it can and cannot host on its soil. washington has worn the both brazil and brazilian companies doing business with a really and ships are now in danger of what they're calling, crippling sanction. solander us something terrorism laws. it's not the 1st time the

u. s. i was issued advice to south america, the biggest the call me previously urging brazilian to rethink its diplomatic relations with terra, despite initially bowing to pressure from washington, brazilian president, lead to sober later agreed to allow the iranian ships to dock, continuing a policy of maintaining good relations between the 2 nations medical, unless doctor video 14th, the brazilian president is determined not to repeat us. he puts it, the mistakes of his predecessors. president, still above like any practical statesmen, doesn't want to provoke any other country or start still with any other country. so in his trip to the united states of america, he certainly was not coming to buy it with a message was still or breaking pi are trying to disrupt good commercial relations . he just wanted to meet with the president and get some agenda items in order and

look forward to a more meaningful bilateral relationship. but he also understood, let us silva and stay there, so that he can make the mistake of federal castillo, which is simply to say, well, if we align with the us and obey them like good boys, then they'll help us when we're in trouble. certainly castillo case has shown that you cannot trust the united states government to protect you and you shouldn't because ultimately you should rely on your own people to support you. ok. ok. big interest in this next story, the boss of the real firm who's cargo train derailed in the us state of ohio last month, sparking a huge fire and chemical leak has been called to testify in front of a senate committee. lawmakers say the accident was 100 percent preventable. derailment happened on february 3rd, the train was transporting a highly toxic chemical compound use to make plastic products. it can trigger

severe shorts and long term effects on the health of anyone exposed to it. the fact that journalists were prevented from accessing the site for some time led to accusations that. busy governments trying to don't play the seriousness of the incident or corresponding caleb and takes us through the details of the catastrophe and the upcoming hearing on it. well, at this point we have ohio residents filing a lawsuit against the environmental protection agency. now, as well as ohio governor might do, why and they are doing claiming that basically they've been told it's safe to go into the area. but that is not say they're citing a study conducted by texas a and m university. and carnegie mellon university. that indicates that there is a concentration of 9 toxic chemicals in the area that is higher than normal. they say the p a telling them it was safe to go into the area,

put them at risk again. local residents told a grazed down reporter that they believe these results conducted by the university . this is what they said. do you trust the company when they come out and say everything safely tested over? no, i don't know. i know what i felt, my lungs. i've got healthy ones that have gone up there and now, but he trust somebody is telling you, well, it's only going out a mile when you live 3.3 miles away and i walk outside the morning of my lungs and burnt. felt like they were on fire, but time i walked out and walk back in. so now i don't trust anything. i don't think there's any content feelings around there. my experience has been the people are still pretty much up in the air and uninformed and feel like they've been manipulated. do you think that the do you think that the company should be trusted

when i say everything safe? everything's good to go. i know i don't trust them. we don't know what's in the air, we don't know what's in our homes. now. another issue that is being raised is the issue of the private contractors that were hired to collect samples in the area, according to gray is the own. the company tetra, tech that was hired is owned by black rock and by vanguard. those are 2 financial corporation and they also own norfolk southern southern norfolk, which is the company, the railway company that is involved in the crash. so that indicates the conflict of interest data least now i pointed out that patrick tech, the company that's been hired, i was involved in quite a few scandal over the years. the department of justice has come down on them for their ecological practices. they were involved in what's been called the biggest case of eco fraud and us history when it comes to a botched name,

the clean up that went on. now, in addition to that, it's important to note that apparently the companies have hired the center for toxicology and environmental health. and this is a corporation that was involved in the clean up after the b p. oil spill in the gulf of mexico. and they have been widely criticized for their environmental practices and their activities in the aftermath of various disasters they've been called on. here's what raised on reports. another toxicologist, familiar with c, t, e h, who requested anonymity to avoid retribution from the firm. describe this chemical studies is designed to meet the goals of its clients that pay to say everything's okay this saw said their work product is basically they find the least productive rules and regulations and rely on those. so with residents that he's palestine, ohio reporting that they've suffered health effect in the aftermath of this brain

derailment, many people are looking on and seeing the reports and the activities of the environmental protection agency that seem to be very well serving the interests of norfolk southern the company that was involved in the derailment, and observers are looking on a thing that looks like an example of collusion, and a parent corruption where a private corporation and the federal government seem to be working together. and it's the public that is being put in danger. and suffering. washington is one step closer to a nationwide bond on the globally popular chinese up to talk and move the critic se threatens freedom of speech and expression. the u. s. senate foreign 1st committee has approve legislation aimed at stifling the social media platform. that builds advancement, counting those tensions between washington on beijing steadily increased. the wife alice has raised security concerns about the app and ordered all

u. s. federal agencies to remove the software from their systems. now, this later legal effort would allow the biden administration to the carry, tick, talk a, quote, extraordinary threat. beijing has rubbish that calling the move and unjustifiable violation of for business practices, neighborhoods, alecia toll. how cool? how unsure of itself can the world top superpower like the u. s. b to fear young people's favorite app like that? we firmly opposed those strong action. so the u. s. government should respect the principles of market economy and fair competition. we stop suppress in the companies and provide the an open fare and non discriminatory environment for foreign companies. in the u. s. he knew what he thought you went while brussels has also jumped on the bandwagon. the e, you know, forbids the use of tick tock on official devices used by the blocks parliament commission and consul legal on media analyst line all thinks that cracked on may

actually do the opposite of what's intended on mick the up as he says, a forbidden fruit thereby raising public interest in it. you people think that tick tock is the only means by which you can get this information. that's number one. number 2, from a practical matter. how would it let? let's go a step further. let's say the band is going to be across the board. is that even possible? and i would venture to say no, because what you're doing is your 1st of all you're, you're creating this forbidden fruit aspect of it. so as soon as you tell young people in particular, and by the way, good luck telling a gen zaire, that this poses some kind of national security threat. but the moment that you tell them you can't do this and this rather recalcitrant generation. good luck with that one. when you keep saying china, china,

china, china, it kin tend to sound dare i say sino phobic. we've seen this before in the way. people talk about anything that's russian, russian propaganda, russian, you know, inter fair ridge russian. and after a while this russo phobic kremlin meeting, i'm kind of language seeps into the conversation. i can see this happening a if it hasn't happened already. and i'm not saying that criticism is not warranted, but it tends to obfuscate and to confuse the issue when you keep saying this over and over again. vinyl, wrapping up our news, our had thought our programs, they were just beginning, stay close to see what showing forever today from the r t international team on myself. you know, the time is

a time to talk and it would seem so the west rhetoric is at odds with hard realities on the ground in ukraine. the chinese have presented a proposal and it is believed the u. k. france and germany are cobbling together a plan for zalinski. but are they willing to talk to russia with ah

ah, the lose hello and welcome to cross talk. we're all things considered. i'm peter lavelle. is it time to talk? it would seem so the west rhetoric is at odds with hard realities on the ground in ukraine. the chinese have presented a proposal and it is believe the u. k. france and germany are cobbling together

a plan for zalinski. but are they willing to talk to russia in the cross talking piece proposals, i'm joined by my guess. i know 10 in beijing, he's a senior fellow at a to have institute as well as the chairman of asia narratives in parents. we have a shots up here. he is professor ameritas at the school for advanced studies at social sciences and in new mexico. we have come home and he is a professor of asian and global history at new mexico state university. are a gentleman, cross type roles and a fact that means you can jump in anytime you want. and i always appreciate it. i want to talk about the european proposal here, and i want to talk about the chinese one. i'm for the repeat one shock. i'm going to go to you 1st in paris. so we have the u. k. france and germany talking to you crane about a possible settlement. essentially boils down to get as much land as you possibly can.
