the vast army which in the span of 7 months, has become a well oiled war machine. more i'd guys do. you have t from logan screeching and other headlines storing, despite sanctions on moscow's energy supplies. the european union has to find a roundabout way to keep the lights on, but the route comes at a price. that's the revelation by bloomberg, which revealed the e. u, has become increasingly dependent on petroleum products from india, which consists of russian crude. it all adds up as india bought a record amount of russian oil in april, some, $2000000.00 barrels per day, not figure and makes up nearly half all the new delhi total imports of the commodity and come with us this south asian country has no established itself the largest overall supplier of oil, to the new indeed many other countries that increase their

energy imports from russia have also become suppliers to europe and g 7 countries. while those european powers here, which indeed impose sanctions against moscow, have increased incoming supplies from nation such as china, india, the u. v. quite a web here to give another example, the north african state of morocco has all its imports of russian crude. really just to show the contrast here it took in 600000 borrows from russia in all of 2021 . but that number skyrocketed to $3000000.00 plus borrows in just the 1st 2 months of this year alone. that's a more than 34 increase in russian or imports, but there is no industrial revolution in morocco to warrant all this. instead, media reports, timber boss appears to be redirecting the black gold to the new markets where we spoke to an indian foreign policy expert who concludes sanctions have simply led to

the west buying russian oil through middleman. but at a higher price. hey, mean that it's way it's actually become some more mockery of the attempt to sanction russia also. and it is a mockery of this whole concept off our sanctions that such, you know, i'm sure it's mostly more expensive, call them because european union and g 7 countries are buying oil from india and the i'm buying the and product that such on the up i am buying the beautified and be find all less such. so any risk to refine petroleum and refine petroleum per vast, will obviously be more expensive than foods, petroleum, and crew to product as such, you know, crude petroleum product as such. if they are happy in spending more money on it than it is their completion, and we respect that position. this monday. jordan host a meeting of foreign ministers from arb, league nations,

and syria. they are there to discuss the return of damascus to the block and the political settlement to the war that has robbed the country for more than a decade. the renewed effort comes on the heels of talked 2 weeks ago in saudi arabia about failed to reach an agreement on returning syria to the alliance. not today will be the 1st time since 2011, that serene officials have spoken with the r ably collectively. after the western asian countries, membership was suspended, jordanian officials have called for the drawing up as well of a road map, laying out a step by step reconciliation to bring damascus back into the fold. last night, cross live to discuss this more with jordanian journalist. out could tab in amman you're most welcome though. can you tell us 1st, the significance of siri is possible return to the arab league? well, since syria was removed, it has caused a major problem,

especially in the middle east country like jordan, which has exports to turkey, to lebanon, to syria itself. and to europe, all have to go through a serious now suffering economic problems. also neighboring countries have had to take in millions of serial fiji. all these are problems that need to be resolved and it's time to resolve them in a i think the exit or the slow exit of the us from the middle east as it made it possible to, to reconcile with syria. so there seems to be a lot of benefits from what you're saying there. is there any opposition to a reconciliation between syria and other arab states? yes. at least cut out and kill way or are opposed to it. and i think one of the north african countries is also oppose, you know, i said has been brutal and he's put down on the era spring. and many people feel that they should not be rewarded for what is done. and nevertheless, politics is,

are the possible and what is possible now is to find a solution that allows a gradual change and the gradual improvement of policies in syria to allow for example, an amnesty improvement in the way that government deals with this opposition and so on. as well as dealing with the big problem that exists in this region, which is the creation of a lot of drugs, chemical drugs that make their way to the gulf, countries in causing major problems. and so the way the and other countries, the u. s. has called syria, quote, rogue state and urged middle east countries to, to get something in return for re engaging with syria. how do you see washington's role? what is washington's interest in this? well, for so a washington seems to have contradictory positions. they seem to be exit in the

middle east, but the same time this isn't secretary of state. they're barbara leave is coming to georgia 2nd time in 2 months that she comes to the region. they understand that there is a vacuum. and if they leave the vacuum, other countries will fill the vacuum, including russia and iran, and so on. the chinese sponsored, iranian saudi arabian agreement seems to have made changes, and it's been a change maker in this region. and the saw these want to resolve all the regional problems, including the m and also palestine. and as well as the syrian. so i think the americans are losing power and they're trying to, to continue to have some kind of a role in the region for political reasons. they are opposed to iran and russia, obviously. and so they don't want to leave their region without having an influence on it. ok, we wait and see what comes from these talks today. thank you very much for your

time. i would could sub today and turn this lie from su donna story. we have been following for the past number of weeks. indeed it is. all entered its 3rd week gunfire and strikes exchanges. they are continuing particularly in the capital, despite yet another negotiated truce. and of the violence spreads residents of the country's most populous city. armed man being forced to flee their home. this funny shows people arranging transport out of time, the spite yet another 72 are negotiate. a truce agreed upon this time on sunday. besides, in the conflict, appear not to be relenting. according to a united nations report over 500 civilians already been killed. busy since a conflict erupt and in mid april foreign nationalists are also evacuating the country. thousands have gathered here in the coastal city of port sue, done in hopes to leave the north east african nation by sea. however,

it's been reported that it's difficult to reach. there are due to a lack of water and fuel. the countries health care system is facing cal up to the w h. o regional directors saves the ongoing fighting impedes, international humanitarian aid, getting the hospitals, meaning they simply cannot keep operating owner care felony. and he looks huck. there's been a real shortage in the medical sector and especially after the start of the crisis 2 weeks ago. specifically, the medical specialists and surgery and anesthesia. there is also a shortage of financing the medical supplies nowadays, due to the lack of security and how hard it is to reach the hospitals. approximately 61 percent of the medical institutes in khartoum stopped working because the reasons i mentioned in addition to the direct military attacks, military occupation of those institutes and staff being laid off 23 percent of the hospitals and cartoon work partially and only 16 percent work at full capacity, this is the health situation and sudan,

especially in the conflict areas. and for the health situation of students, people, there are nearly 16000000 people representing a 3rd of the population get in humanitarian aid, which will stop because of the current conflict. and sir dan, will the un high commissioner for refugees. meanwhile, reports that at least $20000.00 sydney's have sought refuge in neighboring chad. since the conflicts mark, those who successfully cross the border are not being provided with humanitarian aid, organized by unicef. according to the un report mentioned earlier, the majority of refugees are women and children who are currently searching for shelter. nearly 200 palestinians are among those who have returned home. after escaping the balance between the sudanese army and the paramilitary rapid support forces, now the evacuated mostly students arrived in the gaza strip after passing through the rougher border crossing with egypt. unofficial from palestine thank dejection

authorities for opening the route to facilitate the return. here's what one of the recently arrived at this but i think that in his classes began to spread more and more. we tried to assess how great the situation was, whether a friends could come, but the clashes were very intense. so the situation remained tense. we had to stay in a house, we prayed a lot during ramadan for peace. the situation was constantly escalating and your sudanese friends asked us to stay home and we thank the palestinian embassy, the presidency of the state of palestine and all the countries and organizations that were involved in our evacuation. we did not ask for that because we know all states capabilities limited, so we thank them very much for taking this step. as the situation was really tough, we the children of gauze at the children of war. we have lived through the scouts of violence before we know really well how people suffer, how they need humanitarian aid. i think we've, we've experienced war,

but this situation in saddam is different. we were confident that we would be evacuated, but we still fear for the lives of our sudanese friends who was still there with a rum supreme leader has slum the u. s. troop presence in iraq, which is currently estimated at $2500.00. seeing even one american soldier, there is one to many americans on not france of iraq. americans are not friends with anyone and are not even loyal to the european france. even the presence of one american in the rock is too much. while he remarked, come as little surprise as the us invasion of iraq left, a trail of destruction turned hope into despair and left a 1000000 killed and many more displaced. today marks the last day of our special coverage of the conflict that left devastating consequences in its wake. at this hour, american and coalition forces are in the early stages of military operations to
