who is the current chair, they'll be african union. in fact, russia for hosting the for him, which he said was crucial for both moscow. i'm the confident a category, some sort of food, not i would like to offer my congratulations to you mister president, because all of the decisions that you've taken you've made, you're not going to regret them because we have managed to secure a great success. it's not just for the president of the russian federation who has invited us, but it's also a success for african countries because of russia is a winner. everyone is the winner. russia stood with us during the most difficult times during the times of slavery, and during the times of apartheid, russia has always been helping us for many centuries. we've had good relations and i think these relations are going to develop. i think our success is assured, and we are satisfied with the outcomes of these meetings. we live in a unified world interconnected world. so what we advocate is africa being part of the organizations that make the decisions we live in a multi polar world,

the federal budget. i would like to express my satisfaction that the main invited to be official program of the 2nd verse advocate summit were held and constructive and friendly atmosphere, as well as in a very effective way. event. once again confirmed the firm asked you to invite the roster and to forget to further develop a mutually beneficial partnership. just for new forms. new air is on the bottom, are put and opened up his statements alongside the african union leader by saying that he was impressed by how productive a talk set this years. russia, africa summit have been, he said that the african continent has shown great interest in continuing to develop warm relations and trade turnover between the african continent and the russian federation. and that's really demonstrated by the fact that the vast majority of countries on the african continent participated in this summit in this to day summit that's been taking place here in saint petersburg. now he also talked about a number of spears in which the of the african continent and the russian federation

are looking to further development and the future. specifically focusing on the struggle against terrorism on the african continent as well as cooperating in humanitarian in areas as well. and he said, that's one of the main vehicles that is going to be used in further developing this kind of cooperation is going to be the african union. this multinational african organization through which a lot of humanitarian work and trade deals can be done. and of course, one of the biggest subjects when it comes to trade deals is russian export of grain to the continent which russia is trying to increase and has increased over the last year despite western sanctions that have been making it quite difficult. and the russian president also wanted to say, he also said that these international transactions for the expansion of the multiple or world have to be made in national currencies. let's take a list. nobody said it's a fit of calculus given that you can interested in that. i think the target dates to qualitatively and quantitatively increase mutual trade and improve it structure

. we're also talking about consistently switching to national currencies, including the ruble in financial settlements, eliminate trade barriers, including by linking integration processes within the range and economic union of the african union. and it's free trade area to increase exports to africa. russian industrial products which enjoyed good reputation on the continent, including machinery, equipment, vehicles, chemicals, and fertilizers. a country will continue to supply crops to african friends both on a contract basis and free of charge. a walk at the summit continues, but even now i would like to thank old r o african colleagues for accepting our invitation to go to some pages. but russia is insanely trying to build for the strategic, multifaceted relations and partnerships with africa. and we see the same attitude to act together on the part of african friends. grain has been a big topic of discussion and that's been discussed throughout the russia have focused summit this year. but it's so important to understand that there are so

many other spears of cooperation that are rapidly developing as well. and the russian president also briefly went over a number of them, like the sphere of culture, of the spirit of health care. because russia has been doing a lot to help the african continent combat the potential spread of epidemics as well. and what am i putting you even said that they have a number of documents lined up to significantly increase industrial cooperation and energy cooperation between the russian consummate the russian federation and the african continent. and on top of that, of course, one of the another sphere of cooperation is education. this is something that not only vladimir put and has been talking about, but russian officials throughout this summit. the fact that russia is always open to african students looking to come to the russian federation to learn new skills to benefit from russian expertise and all sorts of areas so that they can bring that expertise back to their home countries and make them a better place and,

and build their future essentially. so there's so much going on right now as we saw from the russia, africa summit in terms of developing cooperation between these 2 countries that are between the continent and the russian federation. it's really going to be amazing to see what africa is going to look like in the next say, 10 or 20 years. during a lengthy round table session african leaders and presidents discuss global concerns reform of the un security council and africa's independence. they also emphasize the significance of the brakes and everything is a key for us to promote that. increasingly being heard term of late, multiple auditing of the new african people should be puppets. we need to ensure the self sufficiency of our people and countries. russia has always respected our sovereignty. the bricks, countries are a hope for us. they will help to fight western domination deluxe. what they do is, you know, see how it is important to inform the security council to reduce the,

in the equity towards all african countries. that's all no true presented in this organization. so somebody says create this summit is marked by the spirit of cooperation and partnership. i think we need a more or less. yeah, absolutely. send me to this this. you hold on the sidelines on the seminar, take off the chance to speak with the nigerian vice president cushion shifting the praise the ties between his country, russia, and hope the gathering would boost the prospects for the entire african continent. the exit of the sea vice president of the republic, off a nigeria and the senate to thank you so much for your time and really appreciate your availability. what was the importance of nigeria participating in the senate? we have come here to saturday night and think to stick full for trinity and we know that they're actually on good ration on the free kind of hunting and

had sent you the so let me try the manufacturer the inside of the shop and speaking on partnerships and friendships of what is the importance of strategic cooperation between russia and africa. and what are some of those affects is that you see or other industries. and 6 is that you see possible developments from russia for this as 20 to 25 percent of the bravo grants. so russia would be an authentic partner, a good time to create an investment portion or the company. that's the problem. and there is some of the biggest glass in the market. now you have the 6, the largest fully photographs in the world. i've got it pulled up for the choice. right? yeah, it is. and out with this key, that's it. with the attendance,

with their resources for my new edition, it shouldn't be able to do it by the time in district, in oil and gas, in, in, in, in, in agriculture, in crates, in federal chemicals. so we really want to hi may as low as 14 shows for janine economy intercourse with interaction nation. i truly, we live in columbia to bid for assistance. no, we are here seeking for genuine hon of fraternity. i'm pretty sure unpacked to mention. do you see russia and the african continent working more closely and aligning the strategic cooperation and matches such as security and politics as a result of this particular summit? i believe so. i hope so that our relationship would have had them for june more. i would go in lives and balance so that we kind of work out and we try to be and,

and just share relationship. disney jones on 4 sides into after contracts because it also get an opportunity for optic time new this to interact freely on if it is. so it'd be quality such that in the next couple of months and years. i really, we're going to do a bunch of us have this front of this relationship. now come in trend. the sound of rush at beta and russia is coming for understanding. i appreciate i baker victor across something for me to in the russian government has sort of this a program for these parts and it should pay them 14 on all the leading lights of the direction establishment. wines and it says that for the past retreat is that it's just the money the departments went on for the interest groups from the free time side is fairly familiar with shawn size tours and how soon relationship we change that freedom continues on the right chunk of this the conflict in ukraine

also a key focus of the summit's discussions. a lot of our put and stated moscow was ready to find ways to solve the crisis, despite what he said was the unwillingness of key around its western allies. to do so, the russian leader of the ukraine's neutrality would be fundamental to any negotiations . while the south african president bank must go for taking a recent african proposed piece plan into consideration and insisted dialogue was the only way to end the company. we do understand from your explanation the origins of this conflict and where it started and how it started. we are however, please to hear you say you recognize the initiative that we as african countries, 7 african countries have taken. and the, you take this initiative by the 7 countries very seriously been calling for

engagement. we say so from our own histories, as african countries that many countries on the continent were involved in various conflicts. and in the end of those conflicts, many of them were resolved through peaceful means through negotiations. and it is this that informs us to call for negotiations and dialog. and in that regard, we do believe that we do have a right to call for peace. because that is a principle that we're family believed in. yeah. so the little signed view shared and unity shown the past 2 days, really in st. petersburg in a nut shell, or tea, was there covering the full spectrum of the summit from the heart of the venue

itself on the banks of the river need. if you missed any of it, we've got you covered all the offense. big news lines, fresh analysis to available now on our website. the well let's turn directly to the conflict and don't boss. now we're one person is dead and a further rate injured after the city of done yet came under shelling from kids forces on friday. r t, steve sweeney reports from one of the districts, was head. a man has been killed and a girl born in 2014. so just i. util. 9 years old has been wounded in the latest ukrainian shedding of a civilian area here in cab district on the outskirts of don't your city. as you can see, the artillery shell toll through this building head, causing expensive damage. you can see what it came through. the roof and the

windows have been put out here. the attack took place around lunch time. so these are designed for maximum impacts. now the other side of this building, there was a children's playground. so it could have been a lot, lot was now according to local authorities that have been some 44 set for attacks over the last 24 hour period. and over the course of the week, full siblings have been killed across the don't yet the people's republic. we have to reiterate once again that this is a civilian area that all know a minute to pass. now though, no military bases here, as you can see here, this is the alternative. we show the cause the, the damage to this building. we know that there's been a mixture of both grad, real kits and nato supplied artillery use in the latest attacks. whole theater. never really put into what they should have. this one in the afternoon there was showing here, glass charts was scattered everywhere. there was such

a big explosion. i was so scared. i can't even come to it. it's horrible. when will it end up still? i'm not sure these let's it's just the systematic sheldon began on the 26th for the 3rd day in the roll. the reach unless showing from early morning to evening. lots of show in. oh areas a shout. so moving for the show and has been going on since the morning here and there. i went to the window, there was a bright flash. i jumped out into the entrance. all the windows blew out. they've been showing us for 9 years now trying to secure us. there is not a single mutual man leaving. he, we are not in any of these buildings to pay is one of the apartments that was damaged into ukrainian shedding. as you can see here, this used to be the kitchen as the cook of and the pots and pans, but you can see where they all tend to be. shell came through the roof of the building before crushing through the floor,

causing this widespread damage and destruction is worth reauthorizing once more that this is a civilian area. there was no minute to present to, in fact, most of the people that we've spoken to have been older, people making the older women, but they've been subjected to diet, is shedding by ukrainian forces for the past 9 years. as can you have continues to time arise, civilian populations have been done yet. this is steve sweeney and don't yet city for all to what all are related. same to you printing army started using the cluster munitions recently supplied by the us, and that's contra offensive. each ball contains hundreds of smaller exclusive stuff, especially across the targeted area. as not all of them destined they have an impact. the unexpected shelves can remain embedded in the ground for years, posing a threat to civilians. most notably, children ortiz, senior correspondent, broadcast the a find list, exclusive report, all not from the against group. public music are shifting very preprocess

here. thoughts throughout the school, go to the insurance label for you, or where to go were used. these is the immediate, often loss of ukrainian shilling with clos stuff or cosette, munitions. a school completely got to and i thought you critical staples that the question was one of them for you. when were you before the flight as dispatched here? that the finish the job they were told to get away in case of further attacks, a witness recorded the next impact. the 12 hours later, the school is still in flames. with

evidence of what has happened here is everywhere. the school is still burdening. there are a lot of people here, a single fire engine. we've had to look around the school grounds and we found these little crazes all over the place is another one. this goes much deeper books. over here, we found something that appears to be an element of the golf stimulation that was used year rattled, locals had come to look among the teachers who works here. clauses, would you to begin on september 1st? what did you hear? those were costs to booms. how do you know it was class, the bottoms any you were held on to distinguish them so many small explosions, printers, yes. live in the neighborhood area. we often heard the whistling and clicking

this is another element of the cassette bottom. use the a by that you create in military against this. again, school number 24. what of soldiers? he has said that this, this is safe to, to pick up of these plus the bottomless use identical to the american made and $77.00 plus the munition thousands of plus the munitions artillery shelves had recently been supplied to ukraine by the, by the administration. this was all but suddenly one of them used to demolish a school housing. refugees. i would go with civilians inside. yes, but they were taken out. the one no military here at all. who was the civilians, grandparents who left without house and some temporary accommodation sent us. so

ironically enough, they lost their homes. they were brought here. and this happened again. yes. the 1st to respond with troops of the 5th brigade who rushed to the scene of to the 5th impacts. we've run to the school, which was already putting, evacuated everyone and provided them with shelter. what were your 1st impressions? they were confused, completely lost in or there were 5 shell impacts or filled with cluster munitions, which can lead dormant for decades before designating the so many explosions on the street. so the down, lots and lots. did they last long? yes. and it's happened several times. i was at their loss. i was walking boots crochase as i've lost my leg. the russian soldiers came and carried me out. the costs that munitions used in this attack. well, a p, a c,

which far as an exclusive, super heated jet. it explains the fly. so we see here fragments of the stabilizer and the fragment of the armor piercing munition. there used both in multiple rocket launcher systems and then cluster munitions. and that left such a deep ho. this is where he penetrated it is used against light armor and against infantry. what is the purpose of using such munitions against the school purpose? i don't see any the ukraine has demonstrably fod class that munitions despised for the indiscriminate nature. as a city of a 100000 and the civilian schools to boot with shelves likely provided by the united states. the escalation is brazen. russia is sure to

onset, receive our girl, no green scotch shelves, williams and new months of study kind. you got the career of 30 does the what is it for the russians? and then they have the more, i guess, the of the, from the st. john's the guns region the hunter seems to be the home to drive with early a day going by with our joe biden, some making headlines. now, his former best friend on business partner is expected to testify before congress next week. overt claims hunter biden repeatedly called his father when he was us, vice president, demanding to be included in business deals, ortiz, rachel blevins, picked out the story from the to the bible. family business saga continues and 100 biden's plead your call a part in court. this week,

reports are suggesting the job i that could be implicated, and the upcoming testimony of a reasonable board member. while the president has insisted that he had no knowledge of his son's business dealings. that's the case, according to one of hunter, biden's closest friends and business partners. according to reports, devin archer is set to testify before congress, where he is expected to reveal that hunter called his father at least 2 dozen times . to include him in meetings with foreign business partners and potential investors all. well, joe biden was serving his vice president. now congressman james comber, who is the chairman of the house oversight committee, so he expects archers testimony to be valuable. and the ongoing investigation in the 100 by that we are looking forward very much to hearing from devin out about all the times. he has witnessed joe biden meeting with hunter biden's overseas business partners when he was wise presidents, including on speakerphone. the house oversight committee has also heard from 2 iris

whistle blowers who smoke out about their concern. that hunger was initially facing multiple felony charges for failing to pay taxes on years of international business dealings only to be hit with the like plea deal, however, that we deal fell apart. this week, when he appeared before a federal court in delaware, the judge and the case, then both sides got to the drawing board after she took issue with the deal for its plans to get the hunter immunity from further prosecution. it seems to me like you're saying, just all this stuff, the agreement to your owner. this seems to me to be full of a substance, no matter the outcome of the case. republicans in congress have doubt to continue investigating hunter by that. and when it comes to the question of president biden's future involvement, the white house press secretary had this to say about whether he would let his son off to hook you up to the 1st list of the branding. i know you said that it was changed since yesterday and as a personal matter, but from

a residential perspective. is there any possibility i just said, no, i just had to ask for hunters. good friend devin archer, is reportedly gone into hiding and hasn't been seen at any of his multiple homes in the us. but he is still expect it to appear before congress as early as next week. and his testimony could give new insight into just how involved the president was in his son's business. just before we go on to bring you the story as well, a former nato supreme commander for europe has called for the block to use it towards ships to escort your premium vessels in the block see. but also noted that doing so could inside a direct conflict between russia and the military lights. and how would this work? probably, by bumping the merchant crops into $3.00 to $5.00 ship convoys, each is quoted by

a couple of guided miss holloway ships. the risk is all this. it will bring the russian, ukraine's west and supports us into direct confrontation. if not necessarily combat . gordon would fumes butter and threaten but isn't likely to take a native or a us led coalition of black, see worship, and direct combat. now this comes as nato has condemned russia for leaving the grain deal and promised to bolster its forces in the black sea region. now at this point, it appears the alliance is going to use airplanes and drones for reconnaissance. nato and allies are stepping up surveillance and reconnaissance in the block c region, including with maritime patrol, aircraft, and drones. russia has already assured african leaders who were previously receiving rain and fertilizers that they will receive the entire supply free of charge. meanwhile, we have 5 european union countries, including the hawkish angie,

rushing country of poland, that it actually banned agricultural imports from ukraine to protect local farmers from competition. meanwhile, the european union says it's now ready to export all of ukraine's grain. now that the route has closed, the white house has different ideas saying that they wish to redirect the ukraine grain supply via different routes. the most efficient ways by ship. and this is the best way to get the maximum amount of grain out on a timely basis. and you can use rail, you could use truck routes. you could also look at perhaps the other e u ports, but you gotta, you gotta get it out of ukraine to be able to use other you ports. so there's just, there's, there's no more efficient way than by maritime traffic that this, that's just a scientific fact or physical fact of russia left the black sea grain deal because of broken promises from the western countries. and now they are arranging to

provide the african countries with the same fertilizer and grain absolutely free. meanwhile, the us leaders accuse russia militarize in the blacks. the region one day themselves are overseeing the same thing with nato. of course they blame russia for the fall out of a deal. there was only stops because of there and. busy being asked to fulfill their end of the bargain, they were bobbin archie, new york. well, that's pentagon inside a check. spinny is today's special guess i'm going on the road. i'm the former military homeless, but he doesn't pull back on the spending spree. the u. s. defense department is currently engaged in a whole lot more. besides, it's the acceptance and i'm here to plan with you. whatever you do. do not watch my new show

. seriously. why watch something that's so different. whitelisted opinions that he won't get anywhere else. what could i please or do i have the state department to see i a weapons makers, multi 1000000000 dollar corporations. choose your fax for you. go ahead, change and whatever you do. don't want my show stay main street because i'm probably going to make you uncomfortable. my show is called stretching time, but again, it's not, we don't want to watch it because it might just change the way you the time action redundancy.
