a a with the japanese prime minister is evacuated after a loud explosion and white smoke. it's an area where the official was set to speak, they suspect has been detained. also ahead. the united states needs to stop encouraging more and start talking about peace. it is necessary for the european union to start talking about peace. brazil's president lambs was urging it to stop adding fuel to the ukraine war. as he wraps up a visit to china also owe

them a car, drives into a crowd of demonstrators rallying against controversial pension reforms in brands injuring at least 7 people. but a 21 year old suspect is charged in the us over in the legislature of classified military documents. we'll get how corporate media has teamed up with the government to hot down the source with coming here from moscow. this is our international with the latest world news updates. i'm fiorella isabel. it's great to have you with a loud explosion has been reported in a japanese city of walk the yama. you're an area where the nation's prime minister for mucous sheeta was said to speak. the leader has been evacuated from this scene .

oh, in this footage from local media sources, you can see white smoke rising after the explosion at a local fishing port. local media says the explosive may have been a smoker, nate, according to local police, a 24 year old suspects has been detained. police also said they found another potential incendiary device after the arise. neither the prime minister nor any others were harm because she has since changed a venue and already finished the speech. a number of japanese political party leaders have strongly can more personal nature, as we saw with the tragic assassination of former prime minister obligations. there is a history of political assassination in japan going back many, many decades. although that has become more rare. it really does reflect poorly on

the police. his ability to provide production to is a public event, as well as for intelligence gathering and, and, you know, we look at other countries that is a topic, a great discussion, right? we're always hearing from the united states, for example, whether it's investigating groups on the last or the right and both sides and pointed finger say you're going to far and you're interfering in what's normal kind of public discussion discourse or even arguments over policy issues. but again, it does, it does indicate that parents, police, and intelligence agencies do have a lot of room for improvement in the work that they do. the west needs to stop encouraging the war and ukraine, brazil's president says, as he concludes his visit to china. right, all to phase important. now another important country as the united states, that is the united states needs to stop encouraging more and start talking about peace. it is necessary for the european union to start talking about peace refer

during the visit result president also called for moving away from trade and dollars that as just the head of the trip, the 2 completed their 1st transaction in you on the chinese president stated that bolstering ties with brazil is a diplomatic priority for his country. at the top level, meeting the side sign several agreements and it changed views on international issues. brazil's top officials say their country is free to choose its trade partners all from you. thank you. this is, but we must overcome the previous stage of isolation from other states. the country cannot be isolated from others. brazil has the size to be a partner with big economic blocks and other countries and bilateral agreements. so it makes no sense to choose to be closer to one country in order to be further from another. actually my america, china is brazil's biggest commercial partner in terms of the direct flow of foreign investment. but our relationship speaks for itself and to j. n. a symbolic and

political point of view, the state visits speaks for itself as well. we spoke to people in the streets of brazil who shared their views on us global hegemony. it is it help? so it is important not to leave only the dollar as a paradigm it's, i think there is a need to diversify and also understand other mechanisms other ways of establishing a common currency. china as brazil's best trading partner, they have a lot of technology, a lot of knowledge that could be used in brazil and help us to develop i think you think it is important for countries to use currencies other than a dollar. because if we have a problem in the stock market crashes, it's a global problem. if we have commercial transactions taking place in other currencies, we are also avoiding possible future problems. to actually do, you can clearly see that the united states metals a lot in international relations, especially in the middle east and in other countries affairs that have nothing to do with their politics. i think they just try to benefit. they don't care much

about the rest of the world, but that he thought that he did, the lori's ation process is risky, but everything is moving towards it. after the 2nd world war 3 nodded. states accounted for more than 50 percent of the world's g. d p. and now it produces no more than 20 in general. the monopoly of the dollar in international trade is incomprehensible and inexplicable. i think that brazilian president little is right, are traits one over with china. he's very large. last year it amounted to about $150000000000.00. brazil exported $90000000000.00, an importer, 60, which is very profitable for us. in addition, we have the bricks platform, which works very well. our representative deal morose of the former president of brazil will be in the break bank in beijing. i think that our course is the right one. first of all for investment, and most importantly, why are there no r currencies? why trade in a foreign currency when we can trade in our own, we can decide for ourselves what is best for us and what is beneficial?

lula is absolutely right. meanwhile, china's commerce minister slammed us sanctions against chinese companies for legit ties to russia. dismissing washington steps as groundless and harmful to business. the u. s. sanctions have no international legal basis and no sanctioned by the un security council at typical example of unilateral sanctions and the application of extra territorial jurisdiction which seriously harm the legitimate rights and interests of businesses and effect, the security instability of global supply chains. china strongly opposes them and the sheriff chinese currency in the world markets has doubled over the past year. last february, the u on accounted for less than 2 percent of global trade. since then, the chinese currency has reached 4.5 percent with a yawn. now breathing down the euro's neck,

the dollar here is also in decline as more and more traders turn to its chinese rival. my colleague peters thought was earlier joined by a panel of experts who weighed in on the global shift away from the u. s. dollar in favor of rising multiple arity. we are seen as a certain level of di dollarization. now, i'm practically speaking trading in these current currencies of developing nations . other stable enough to does it affect the social stability when it comes to tre, between you still, there is not an issue. they is just a, we picked the dollar or how to work. now that the, the primary issue for especially smaller countries is do they have the, the, the fiscal, the monetary stability in terms not being able to use their currency on a global basis. the global economies growing and countries such as china, countries such as india, continue to have a larger space in the commercial landscape. but i think you also need to

think, why is all of this happening? and in part, it's because of us sanctions policy. when you a sanction policy is focused on a particular country, then it's, it gets less attention and countries are less worry about it. but with the globalization of u. s. financial sanctions, that's driven a lot of bits. and so when you have prime minister modi president, she president putin, president lula, they're all looking at ok, how do we insulate ourselves from whoever's in the white house? what benefits are their full, full, full members of doing this? and now we've seen a gradual move away from the dollar when it comes to trade. yeah, this is very significant. peter, the dollars supremacy has done so much damage to south america into a press countries, the world over. we see the sensor of economic gravity in

a political gravity and diplomatic gravity shifting to the east, to shanghai, to beijing. to moscow. this comes is great news to all the exploited under developed countries of the world who are for so long been trapped into this. i historical dependency not just on the dollar, but on us market. we see dozens and dozens of countries across south america in the middle east lining up to join bricks. what are the main benefits of the countries in breaks in trade? in with their own countries? will self control, does it give them that the, the green bike doesn't bella is quite significant. a fair country. so stop trading in their own. adams is in bed on national balances, then definitely that dependency on dollar or for that matter, the entire starling fall into the noodle would come down drastically as starch. and i think that that would actually be setting the platform for multilateral ball to

order the across the board globe. such we have been trading with germany now with the indian currency and there is no longer dependency on dollar such. so i think of these are very significant moves. i saw champions, i'll grab campbells and definitely breaks. there's a very powerful automation. it's a powerful organization, india, china, and russia are the part and parcel of breaks together with greatly less well as south africa. and i do understand that in the future bricks is going to expand part of the as such. so this, so he started dependency on dollars as well as on your all and in starling pound. will be diminishing gradually with every passing days. and i think very soon, we will see a couple of new currencies emerging as international standards are in terms of dollars in terms of stunning power there, such already, thumbs up, you know, and in back i do see the indian i rupee emerging, esa alternative to international currencies at the global level,

a rise in the national currency is yet another sign of the end of china, so called century of humiliation when it suffered from western interference, added consequences. and now beijing is the force to be reckoned way for more on this and other breaking news stories join us at r t dot com. western sanctions have become a sort of joke. they band themselves for much needed affordable resources. that's what energy expert on north of high g discusses in the latest episode of option returns is going underground. you can watch a full version here on our tea throughout the day. but here's a sneak peak. russian gas was pipe was way cheaper, was long term contract. why did the u. s. l n g is way more expensive and way more dangerous. and essentially when it comes to energy security,

simply because it, as we've seen with the fire at the free port. so we end up with some problems, technical problems and will wind up with hurricane in the gulf of mexico, where europe is going to get the gas from because some of its been replaced. i mean this, that there are sanctions. no, this is, this is the problem. the issue here is this. all we did, and this is again, one of the major results of the conflict is we have changes in the direction of trade in energy sources, merely oil and gas and coal. and it's a musical chairs period, that's what the sanctions did. as soon as you can share, we, we diverted the russian gas to asia. we send the american gas europe. we diverted the oil from europe to asia and the middle east and africa. and then the middle east and africa start sending or into europe. the other issue is that because

the sanctions really never worked historically and they don't work. it's becoming shorts of a joke that you will ban yourself from the cheap brush and oil. and yeah, and then your to pho, china, takes that she boys refine it, then send you the gasoline a diesel at ward prices. this is just a joke. ah. and in bunkerville, france, a car has driven into a crowd of demonstrators rallying against controversial pension reforms, injuring at least 7 people. oh. 7 7 put it shows a car driving into the rally, knocking several people off their feet. 2 of the 7 injured half been hospitalized. according to preliminary data, the driver lost control. he,

as well as his 3 passengers, were detained. a similar incident occurred just the day before during a similar protest in paris. on friday, police use tear gas and baton against protesters marching through the capital torching trash bins. in the city of ran, demonstrators also started fires engulfing the entrance of a police station as well as the local monastery. protests continued through the night as citizens expressed their frustration over the bill being pushed through parliament without a vote. ah, that had signed the bill to day claiming that the reforms are essential to prevent the country's pension system from collapsing, which is why the government says it had to use special constitutional power to

force through the changes without a vote last month. nationwide. demonstrations opposing the reforms have been ongoing since january and according to trade unions, they will continue to riley for me today is the ultimate slap in the face of decisions that are onto craddick decisions that no longer reflected all the democracy that is supposed to be in france, today, we will continue protesting in the streets that nobody was hoping for any good form . the counsels ruling, we all knew that they would decide this will, the will, the movement of ownership. oh, we won't give up. never give out what people they don't know. what's coming for them? we will go until the very end. if we have to block the country, we will. and in the usa, 21 year old suspect allegedly behind the leak of classified intelligence documents has been charged with unauthorized removal, retention, and transmission of national defense information. the case has prompted the

government to double down on surveillance, but the main true media is now demanding, given more censorship from what technologies is the pentagon. applying right now to both spot leaked documents online and track potential indicators of leaking type practices. can you say whether duty has anyone looking at a chat rooms on discord of what is your message to anyone who might be thinking of leaking these kind of documents in the future? what took so long for d, o. d, in the intelligence community stood to locate these documents. are there less people who have access to this type of information to day than there were a week ago? meanwhile, it's been revealed that the u. s. mainstream media had identified the suspect even before the f. b, i could find him. archie is killed mop it investigates the role of the press in the case. well, what's particularly interesting, ah, is that the tracking down of this accused leeker was done by 2 journals,

2 journalist outfits. one describes itself as a group of independent journalists. however, its connections to american intelligence are quite well known at this point. and the other is the new york times, which is one of the main voices of the american establishment. and we have 2 entities that described themselves as journalists press, basically bragging, very proud about having worked with the f, b i to hunt down a leeker years. what's been said, belin gets eric taller worked with the new york times to uncover a trial of digital evidence that appears to identify jack dick. she error a 21 year old air national guardsman as the leader of an online game chat group, where u. s. intelligence documents leaked now belling, cat in particular, likes to present itself is very independent investigative cutting edge. but they work hand in hand with law enforcement to track down the identity of an individual

who may classified documents of vailable to the public and put them on the internet . and there's been quite a reaction to that on social media. well don, for working with the fast to ensure whistleblowers are arrested great walk in the name of st. celeste investigative journalism. it's astonishingly embarrassing on the part of the new york times special that instead of reporter, relevant leaks, they do the work of a fashion secured to state to find the league, or instead disgusting. there was a time when the new york times went to court to argue they had the right to publish leak government documents. now they're helping the governance track down leakers. if you see a leak in the new york times, it was planted by the government. so we have a situation where over a 100 documents of classified information related to the american government and its relationship with the conflict in ukraine have flooded the media. now the

individual who's been charged for this is a 21 year old member of the air national guard of massachusetts. he apparently is reported to have wanted to impress his friends on a discord server on the internet. so he made these documents available. questions raised about why such a low level member of the military would have access to. ready information, but regardless, he has been arrested now mainstream media as played up the politics and the views of the young man describing him as racist pro gun christian, anti war, etc. almost as if there portraying him as an insurrection is frank link him to donald trump. his orders and the january 6th, that mainstream media has painted quite a picture and characterized this individual as being associated with a larger mil you and us politics. here's what they've said. we do have a domestic extremism problem in america. one of the greatest national security threats facing our country comes from with it within sometime individuals that have

the kind of personality defects get through. and unfortunately, caused the problem. and he had some extreme views about some he thought the u. s. government was engage in conspiracy. the washington post, as you know, reviewed video of this suspect, yelling racial and anti semitic slurs. and one thing that is clear is us officials are indicating they will be increasing the surveillance of us citizen and their internet activity when it comes to this kind of thing in order to ensure the classified documents are not future. ah, now to some disturbing news from the russian republic of done net were ukrainian, shelley has left for people dead and 10 more wounded, including a child according to local officials. the deadly attack targeted the city of guessing obadiah ukrainian nationalists shelled residential areas with nato supplied $155.00 millimeter artillery rounds. most of the wounded civilians are

said to be in critical condition while in the disputed city of our field mosque also known as buff moot. a powerful barrage of russian artillery fire has struck here. positions the wagner group says it has targeted one of the last remaining ukrainian strongholds inside the city. with a massive plume of smoke and debris, seen rising in the air for many months are almost has been the scene of some of the heaviest fighting in the dawn bass. this all comes amid rising tensions around a purported ukrainian counter push, which has been delayed due to heavy rainy seasons. in dawn bass, our tease, mariah garcia observes how the battle field pause as property, but much less effective. which also means ukraine's counter offensive is going to have to wait for the right whether west and tags are much heavier than russian tags

. more sensitive to conditions, while it weights nato funnels in more and more weaponry for kiev. this video shows what a believe to be british a s 90 howard says being transported through ukraine. these especially are a favorite of russian drones. ah.

loitering, munitions all cat, me kazi. drones have been a game changer. the specially military grade, or where the variance prized western armor that ukraine has put so much faith in has become drone fodder. now, kiev is attempting to catch up. on the 1st world war, we now have 2 of them. the 1st one was grounded with nancy drone gun, and the 2nd one was a gift. it was grounded with electronic warfare and handed over to us for analysis . these are the kamikaze drones. ukraine is mass manufacturing made from commercially available parts. they fly up the line, t 5 kilometers an hour to a distance of 7 kilometers. does more than distance. this one came with its payload detached, quite heavy about a kilogram of explosives. it's relatively cheap because of the poor quality

components. $400.00 so. so the firm, ukrainian conflict has sparked a drone arms race troops. now fear them more than artillery. after all, a shell can't follow you. a drone can or at gas d of our t from new gun squeezen. ah. and before we go, some breaking news just then, reports of gunfire and explosions have come in from across the sudanese capital as a nation's military clashes with the rapids special forces paramilitary. clashes are also reportedly taking place near the republican palace. local media has said military forces are blocking entrances to the site and its surrounding area, including that of the nation state tv broadcaster. the local airport is closed as the r a sub has stated that it has taken full control. they will be keeping you

updated on this development sarina mahogany donna. and that's her. up on the our coming up and award winning scholar discusses the north room attacks. and why are you a sanctions on russia are 8 jo next summer going underground. stay close. aah! [000:00:00;00] ah, with the discovery of the new world, at the end of the 15th century, there appeared at atlantic slave dre. the slave traders from european countries started building forth on the western coast of the african continent to transport

the african inhabitants to america, to be forced into hard labor. until the middle of the 17th century. portugal had played the main role in this atrocious business. then great britain, france and the netherlands took the leadership for the span of 400 years of legal and illegal slave trade. about 17000000 people were forcefully shipped across the atlantic. not including those who died on the way due to unbearable living conditions. modern historians estimate that for each slave ship to america, there were 5 who died while captured during transportation, and cruel obliteration of rebellion. this ruthless people tre practice by the leading european countries, took away tens of millions of african lives. the organisation of united nations

classified the trans atlantic slave trade as one of the gravest human rights abuses in the history of humanity. this is the biggest act of deportation of people ever seen by mankind. ah, ah, i feel that focused on these are still working. a through the journey of developing an identity and national identity. very, you know, we talked earlier about the vibrancy, the dynamics of the media. well, all sorts of is there a chance have a chance to debate and come to the for. but that also has a downside in reading is outreach debate. nothing is agreed ah

ah, i'm option or tansy and welcome back to going underground rock us to go around the world from do by in the heart of the energy rich middle east. this week we ask, do oil sanctions work will merely kill people in the countries doing the sanctioning? the biden administration continues to die. seymour hersh, his report that it blew up europe's pipelines, destabilizing global energy markets, and creating the largest man made single fossil fuel emission event. while sanctions, meanwhile, on russia, routinely assumed by nato nation media to be an appropriate response to what has
