of the the top headlines right now, one of the international abiding whitehouse is poised to dispatch deadly flush the bottoms to ukraine, munitions that germany is opposed to sending, while nato maintains a neutral stones. radioactive water is set to be pumped off the coast of japan. as china comes down on sea food in pull, those details are up and coming. we are not sure in the manner in which a lot of other countries are they have already matter. we cannot make objectives to induce foreign minister on a 4 day visit right now to the east african nation depends in the us. the g 20
2:01 pm
chair, new jersey is focusing on building ties with the mode, your economies of the global south. we're talking all about the growing, multi part of the right for the night here, and i'm also, we're talking now just off the 9 pm for the full program of your new set to go. of course the without the mainstream narratives. now we do start this hour with news coming out of washington. as we understand that despite a pledge to phase out cluster munitions in 2016 because of the risk to civilians, washington now reportedly plans to send a controversial weapons to kiev earlier. my colleague of peter scott was discussing this with auntie correspondent shape, or it's been a rumored for quite some time on the so in the context of, i suppose ukraine stating counsel offensive that more in the weapons of the line needs to be pushed further further. so it would be the latest in a long line of,
2:02 pm
of the weapons that we're going to turn the tide for your client. and these weapons are quite powerful. they're quite destructive. now they've been used by both parties currently in the ukraine. so they're not a new edition, but what is new is that, you know, the fact that the us who is claiming not to be a party to the conflict is yet again taking, you know, the escalating stuff at us itself stopped using these weapons used them in the rack and use them in previous conflicts, of course, but stopped using them in 2016 themselves to start to stop probably munitions. now it says it wants to sort of start following the forwarding domain to this, the meat grinder in ukraine. the reaction, even from us face to human rights groups, which is unusual, has, has been one of condemnation. and you know, they cite the destructive power of these weapons and these are dpi, cm's, you know, at the dual purpose and prove cluster munitions which can disperse tiny bomb. and
2:03 pm
it's over at large areas. and they have huge destructive power on the battlefield. but they also leave the potential for civilians to be at home. by the way, we can actually hear what the human rights watch had to say about this. the use of cluster munitions in areas with civilians makes an attack indiscriminate in violation of international humanitarian law. and possibly a war crime. the cluster munitions that the united states is considering sending to ukraine are more than 20 years old. scatter over a wide area and have a notoriously high failure rate, meaning they could remain deadly for years. so as you can see, uh these are quite dangerous weapons and they don't just uh, they're not just effective on the battlefield against the military, any or armored enemies. they're all so have a potential terrible lagging effect on local civilian population. so of course, it will be american children who are injured by these in the post conflicts scenario, or farmers plowing and feel the ukrainians and potentially russians. but also this
2:04 pm
comes in the context if you will call the sending of depleted uranium. so it seems just alucard attitude to these weapons is a very much in evidence here that as well, america can condemn the use which they did sarah for illegal cluster bombs and vacuum bombs being used by the russians. if that's true, what is the next step of this is ministration that is there a red line for how much violence will be tolerated against civilians in this manner that illegal essentially it is, it would be i don't have any confirmation of that. we have seen the reports if, if that were true, it would potentially be a war crime fuel, but they also condemned their use in series. you and russian use them against terrorist. and we can actually have a look at that. now initial open source reporting highlights the use of cluster bombs by russian forces and several populated areas including hama and edward's tax. using these uh, imprecise weapons, only continue to cause
2:05 pm
a necessary so the russians have been indiscriminate. they've been reckless in syria. they seem to have no difficulty dropping cluster munitions around we're civilians and. ready me, so as you can see, and you know, do as i say, not as i do from, from the united states. and it's important to remember the united states has dropped thousands of tons of these new nations in their various military misadventures. going back as far as con podium visa and these new nations are actually killing civilians still today after those conflicts, which ended decades ago. again, another game changer, this isn't going to have a definitive impact on the plane and battlefield is just not going to happen. it's only going to really expand and expand the number of villians and unfortunate accomplishments on do you find inside who will probably have to die before this conference. they just brought to it too, and then it also represents the reality that you find is they've been used as
2:06 pm
a very cynical, the biography for western weapon systems. and most of the things that are being dumped into your brain. as i mentioned a few. and this week have never been used on the modeling battlefield before other know, being used in a vague cynical way by the military industrial complex that to gauge their effective a successful. so a dangerous escalation. another red line pushed forward this inc for mental move towards more, more munitions, more, more of the se. uh so we're gonna have to watch this space very carefully. so when it comes to these a controversial plus the ball, munitions are because the opinion on the inside of labor and human rights lawyer done. cuz i is really the purpose of these types of munitions. they're called, in fact and type personnel. nations, meaning they are, their purpose is to name and kill people and many times civilians. this will be used by ukraine uh for that purpose. and as you mentioned, this is a gift that keeps giving these funds from any of which has
2:07 pm
a significant percentage of which will guides, meaning they won't blow up right away, but they could block years from now and kill civilians. so this is a set of goal include gesture on the part of the us. i mean, this is just classic of bach we're seeing on, on the part of the united states, you know, criticizes people for when they do or allegedly use chemical weapons. of course, the last used a massive chemical weapons in a number of it's conflict. so this is just a classic case of double standards that the u. s. use is constantly, i think you'll see some european countries condemn it. some us human rights organizations have already condemned it. yeah, i think there will be some upset about this. somebody think it exposes the us. it shows they don't care about the ukrainian people at all. this is about hurting russia and they're willing to do practically anything to do that, including finding the last ukraine. let's go through some of that. it's not coming into to us from the front line by russian forces have made advances against
2:08 pm
ukrainian positions in the don't ask. republic for russian brigade is a defeated key of forces in the town of a capacity in lima, around as we understand 90 ukrainian troops to fort lake hills. 5, surrounded with gives us soldiers, essentially pulling back from the positions of the russian defense industry, also reported this forces are gaining ground in the heart of san and stuff always you have regions. meanwhile, ukraine's president has to be the bulk area to meet with his counterpart of the nature of member state. the issue on the talks to spiraled into a public disagreement, even in front of a press of a key of the balance for more weapons or does it ask, he has had a high hopes that ball gary would supply the movie ospital. but its president has said he must ensure his own country security fast the conflict this conflicts has no military solution to say, i do not accept the provision of munition, especially if it is from the reserves of the vote during all me. because like you,
2:09 pm
i'm the president and supreme commanders and i have clear responsibilities not to weaken the defense capabilities of demo during all me know to go to sleep. and while your crime has other high expectations for next week's nato summit, by the head of the countries military, intelligence says key doesn't believe the gathering will deliver all of what it once it's all these don't know quoted now picks up the store state of the art weapons, tens of billions of dollars, volunteers, and mercenaries from around the world, the west giving t of more than it could have initially dreamed of. and yet there hasn't been much luck on the battlefield. as things stand, it looks like nato is just as reluctant to accept ukraine into its ranks as keith is eager to join the native. some. it is quite difficult for me to commend for a very simple reason. the expectation. so far society will not be satisfied. nato's promise to bring the landscapes country into the fold continues to remain just that a promise and based on all the back tracking and qualifying that we've seen from washington. it seems like
2:10 pm
a valley that can be easily broken and the president has said, he has said this over and over again. you can would have to make reforms to meet the same standards as any natal country before they joined. he said, does things he thinks that this can be due can, can be done. the crane can do that. after months of pleading with the west, the landscape has recently come to terms with the fact that nato is a no go, at least until the war is over. and still he thinks support from washington might achieve something in the near future. he has long been holding out the beggars cap for f. 16 fighter jets, but not a single western country is ready to part with its spare military aircraft. sure. denmark and the u. k. agree to train fighter pilots, but without the jets? what's the use and what ukraine's flopping counter offensive, looking like, a huge waste of equipment for potential donors, germany's decided no way. is it sending its own planes? and the words of nato's military committee chairman,
2:11 pm
the issue of jets just won't be solved in the short term. the discussion on the fighters is an important one, but it will not be solved in the short term for this counter offensive training those pilots training the technicians, making sure there is a logistic organization that can actually sustain these aircraft will not be available before this counter offensive the ukraine's long awaited counter offensive is not meeting the west expectations, and that's putting up lightly. initial reports of disastrous attacks against russia's defensive lines, were met with denial. the main offensive hadn't even started yet. they said, as the absurdity of that claim became obvious, the west began to say the offensive was slowly grinding along which despite catastrophic losses, your brains premiere attributed to trying to save the lives of soldiers. eventually to have announced the change of strategy, which is apparently not aimed at taking territory. it's a low effort explanation that's had western officials disappointed with the
2:12 pm
ukranian war effort and the landscape pointing the finger at the west for his own country's failures. yeah, would you ship going to, i wanted to come defensive to started earlier. why? because everyone, you that the delay would mean the most of the territory would be mind. why given the enemy, the opportunity and time to prepare defensive lines? i'm credit of to the yes, as the leaders of all supports, as i told them, as well as the european leaders that we would like to start our contest census earlier. and we need all the weapons and the equipment for that to do so many western weapons. so much tax payer money all to pay for a colossal blood bass and sustained an ungrateful and insatiable proxy state. the china is imposing a defacto by an impulse of japanese sea food. as following the island nations decision to begin dumping water contaminated by the 2011,
2:13 pm
a focus cheap on nuclear disaster straight into the sea. it comes off with united nations. atomic washed already is to report claiming this proposed plan would be safe of the japanese side whitewash their discharge plan. nuclear polluted water is nuclear, polluted water, no matter what the japanese site says. they cannot package polluted water as normal water and they cannot truck. the consequences and responsibility is caused by forcibly discharging polluted water into the sea. spilled water can not be gathered up again and the bad consequences of the plan cannot be reversed. we urge japan to stop trying to show it gets responsibilities and honestly responsive the legitimate concerns of the international community. they must stop promoting the plan of discharging nuclear polluted water into the sea and properly disposed of nuclear polluted water in a scientific, safe, transparent, and negotiated manner. china is bad on japanese. the food products comes while depends making final preparations to dump nuclear contaminated water into the sea.
2:14 pm
and will this issue has raised many concerns among chinese consumers over the quality and the safety of japanese food, the director general of the u. n's, atomic watch dog raphael raw see has real lighted the release of the radio active water saying that the scientific work of the age of states shall be trusted. the agreements that we have uh, with the, with the coal and with the government of japan are permanent in the sense that as i said, the other day until the last girl. and perhaps you can be on wheels in terms of evaluating, assessing at the, at we will be there if we see a problem, a deviation will really mediate the race. the alarm, if i can say, or talk to, to the government, talk to, to typical, i need to be for them to fix in the society decisions one has to test the
2:15 pm
scientific work of the uh, we are new 12, we do not take sites. we look at the science, we look at the problem and we have an assessment. and then we can, we can discuss is interesting that he mentions of a trust in the scientific world that it has been reported that some scientist behind this reports have dealt with some disagreements and scores. when the director general was asked about this, he simply brushed it off and did not elaborate according to a global times research center survey over 80 percent of respondents in 11 countries in the asia pacific region say that the plan is simply irresponsible. 190 percent have express negative sentiments over the plan and 94 percent have said that the move will have a negative effect on the whole world, not just the region itself. and it is very important also to note that some chinese sea food vendors are incomplete support of china's decisions to is, is a chinese citizen food safety is definitely of the most important for me. i would
2:16 pm
products on purchase through legitimate channels and we only sell them with the permission of the government. we will not sell japanese products now or in the near future with this issue, concerns the health of future generations about how does the c belongs to the whole world and all of humanity? the japanese release of nuclear, contaminated water into the secret cause irreversible pollution. i won't choose to eat japanese food in the near future, and it's not just the chinese citizens that are worried because the plan has been controversial since it's announcements in 2021. we've even local japanese people also expressing concerns over the contamination of the water. japanese fission and sea food groups have also voice their concerns about their livelihoods as the fear that consumers would rather avoid buying their products. and from japan, we go to south korea where the plan has also prompted some south korean retailers
2:17 pm
to stockpile sea salt, which has led to a search and prices in korea. and from korea, we go to the environmental group, green peas, who has long been critical of the plan itself. warranty and that the remaining radioactive materials can accumulate in the food chain and call in and said for continued long term storage and depend, has not yet specified the bait to start the waste water release. but what we do know for sure is that it would take decades to complete a good company as an appointee. yet we cannot exactly predict the effects we will see over the next 30 or 40 years, or even in a 100 years, even taken into account. modern modeling techniques and modern computers, the earth is a very complex system. after all, and the world's oceans are a large and almost completely unexplored part of it. any introduction of radioactive substances require some kind of response from living organisms. we aren't going to speculate about the various limbs. bish might grow. we'll leave that to the imagination,
2:18 pm
but some kind of add up taishan must take place. maybe they will become more tolerant to this increased radiation or some species may disappear. but it should be understood that the i a e, a experts have studied this question. and although some people may have suspicions about geo political motives at the moment, we have no reason not to trust that i a, as an organization. there are representatives of various countries there and researches on going in terms of commercial fish. if they are exposed to this tritium isotope, every batch will have to be checked. i emphasize every batch and not just once a year and additional monitoring of the fish and sea food cut and the region will have to become mandatory. most items in the past on a sending a rather clear message to sweden by holding rallies to observe a sign to the day for the holy koran. the prime minister himself is pulling for the demos angle grows and muslim countries following the voting of a koran and stuff. i'm during the religious eat holidays last week. hey,
2:19 pm
we see hundreds of practice dining muslims. and marching to the swedish embassy and his mom about untiring donald to condemn. but the separation of the holy brook. i demonte the diplomatic ties of somebody with sweden. we spoke to some of those right there on the street. if you're protecting your own so called freedom of expression, then you must protect ours. this is the way to go ahead for a global civilization respect each other so that you may not breach others rights while protecting your own. the mon, the swedish, and busted to be expelled from his slum and bogged their embassy, should be shut down because there's no unbelievers across the world. because less from us remarks about our loving prophet muhammad, and sometimes burned the koran. and god may destroy them. i need to think i might have been good. we don't like any accumulation of our religion and really just symbols in any parts of the world. whatever they will do, we will protest, he would demand them best, the day must be expelled. the embassy should be closed and invested to the must be
2:20 pm
called back. we are thankful to president tutoring for his supporting remarks for muslims, and we believe people having annually just have their freedom of expression. but we also must not play dirty games with the others. religion, this is unfortunate that in the 1st place this we did a government and you do sure we have permitted this thing is one of our kids, one of the main shopping bonding a smaller box. and these 4 dresses try to go to the sweetest message, which is just 500 meters from head invest is protected, and there is a heavy deployment off before the due process and the court as soon as i do, i think that the best see, must picked last time before the due process, one thing there must be declared persona non grata. they have uh purchased it across the country to day on friday uh involved in charlotte and board time and internet to you and is there a hundreds up for our purpose?
2:21 pm
thousands of people that these cortes have been on for this thing. i guess the, pardon me, got put on incidents in sweden. and they said that the soonest farmer, this from somebody is inc and protecting those or whoever. and because we have, we are expecting more for this this week, as if we're running alliance. the primary source was leading the legalize of 35. these are their most for test today. and they say right, they probably about 5 minutes. so everyone's on has oscars for test of to far from the states and professor, i guess we don't, we have see that really as groups on, on the street and out of the very park. it also says find a bit closer to people who came to the states and our professing. we are expecting more professor this week. i mean, the back on our tv is i'm about a vaccine for malaria is said to be rolled out to millions across africa, over the next 2 years of the numerous tests on the continent. the director of the
2:22 pm
world health organization says it's good to go. a hi, this is maxine at games, malaria. the oddity s as back scene, has now been delivered to more than 1600000 children in gonna kenya. and my lo, we, it has been shown to be safe and effective, resulting in a substantial reduction in severe malaria. and the form in china is all the w h r, as high as the initial 18000000. those as coming off the production line have been assigned to a dozen countries on the continents and have the highest rates of deaths from the area among children. now, the 16 nations are lined up. we'll have to wait though for more production of the medicine has been filled tested in africa over the last 4 years. ready it's currently being made by a british company with an india. in fact, i'm looking to cope reduce the injections as well. that when come are ruined by the area is one of the top threats to people's health. for them to the w h o over 11000
2:23 pm
people in the country die from an area every year and a doctor as a valid mary hospital of explains what's led to the crisis and what can be done. because it's mainly up for the floor level. so based on we have people preventing olivia, the incidents on monday, basically going to grow. so the 1st thing was having putting fees by the ministries they do, and that made sense, these conditional must extend. and so when, if they think on c, i, i, as a must have been and most of the amount that he used to for the samples. so that's what each of the nice thing he's decided to condition of the some of us needs 20 samples. the breeding ground for most people to an enrollment, a lot of rush these down and what the, all of those stabilize the breeding of, most of those have a window must get to stay mostly. okay. hi, is there somebody we have 2 boxes help you. so very good tools in prevention boxing available is equally going to cut down the rate of inflation towards the on
2:24 pm
the 5, something that we missed was presented quarter of the april or the group of people i'm most pretty close to the communication. somebody with that one more thing we need to be sure about is, can you issue some piece prayed to nationwide because there's one thing about the boxing and the, some of the thing of people understanding what a fucking is all about the computational device. and so that for patients to receive it, we open on we also heard from my doctor dorothy actually come through and you're in the area program official and w h, i representative. now she says that a special assignment prototypes with the countries most in or the new back. so let me see the benefits of x. and that was pre qualified by the expo, is the parts here, says the fax and it says port storage racks so. so sections of the power sites um seduce from the post type, posting attached to us. so this fax is very effective, has already been deployed in 3 counties that you originally content. and that's
2:25 pm
gonna allow we and kenya, we are having over a 1500000 votes and sorta already be but i'm the need to go trials that we conducted sees 2017 have demonstrated that the vaccine is highly keisha's reducing by about 40 percent. the cases of malaria also we using v these children are subsequently reducing mortality and food in under 5. in this week. any talk. com please. we have um a talk to each of the production of the r t. it says rex's and what we have done as the page to is that they have been a technical working group that has produced an a location framework which needs the criteria of locating the limited supply of faxes to the countries.
2:26 pm
so in this framework we target cons piece which of highest need so the high but in countries and also countries that have if each end vaccine delivery programs that come mid november to greens have come speak. those is because we need at least for those, this i'm, this have to or be, i mean, these bet. so we have for those is administered to children at least to have the highest if the k c needed. so we need to, we are sending those back seems to abs highest and the the and so in the emerging multi poder world, africa and india can cooperate to see both of their economies rise to get the us. the message from india is foreign minister. is it kicks off a full day visit to the east african nation of tons and the, as you daily focuses on building ties with emerging economies of the global south, we're talking all about the continuing, blah, blah, swimming i should say,
2:27 pm
that of the new multi polar world or have a look at this, a water approach to africa today is to create more of a software to invest in africa, to work with us across to create capacities enough. so that the rise of africa also takes place as countries like india are rising. initially, the external affairs, minnesota, of india is in the country of tens. and yes, we do know that those 2 countries have had, by natural ties and have a long standing good relationship between the 2 countries. now the minister has had a long list of an agenda during his 4 day visits to the african states. and this includes the inspect to what's a supply project in pennsylvania as well as some of the deed is off tens. a new will be meeting with the minister in zanzibar, as well as a restriction that could be taking place on an indian naval ship that is currently
2:28 pm
in attends in the and not the minister went on to speak a fond to the relations and the ties that to the country has with india as one of his projections in terms of what he sees, what be for fee would be the growing of africa and tens india as a whole. we are not as an extractive economy. we are not in the manner in which a lot of other countries are they have already matter. we cannot make objectives for us. this is a broader deep partnership. do know that the relationship between india and tends india is characterized by it's heavy infrastructure, investment, large scale projects, as well as a focus on and natural resources. and we also know that there's been a lot of training in terms of human development in the resources sick to as well as the transfer was in technology. now, india's engagements in africa's a hold include collaborations in industry such as pharmaceuticals to the
2:29 pm
communications and renewables. and the ink to sprints, and as because of the software lines is a one that the searching fee of putting a what a difference a single word makes, get this the you were taking a step towards the legalizing new gene editing technologies for crops across the block saying that the practices of changes plans and a much less intrusive way than genetically modified products. the plan will allow these new crops to be solved without any special labeling. in many ways, new genomic techniques can give you the same results as through conventional and natural selection. or through targeted cross breeding, but with much more speed, precision, unofficial. however, they move has definitely raise concerns. and maybe you, you organizations which i've sent the european commission to petition demanding great to regulation and clear labeling. they all get the quote,
2:30 pm
enhanced krupps would prevent farmers and figure produces from up thing for g. m a free choices. i think there's no scientific consensus on the safety of these new products, which they claim having pushed by will profit seeking corporations. we spoke with owed a henry of public affairs analyst. i'm a little bit into how both are kind of from the university of zombie who gave us the take on the issue in the short run back is going to go and uh, this one shortages barcelona. we have waited to. i said it's the same as the ones that you might be exactly what we are waiting to see shows and things on the option for human species. and also i didn't was, i don't think it is going to be beneficial for us to go crunches on the you repeat so might be planning. it'd be the that was done. that's because the kind of policy that, that uh, is on. yeah. has to be restricted by your pennies, unity so.
