stretching back, but again, you probably don't wanna watch it because it might just change the way the new jersey top court orders the french ambassador to be expelled from the country. a 1000 floods the streets of the capital, demanding french troops also leave. meanwhile, franz suspends its military cooperation with the bond after the central african state is also shaken by a military coup. locals tell us what they face of the latest event. for 64 years. we've had just one review. the regime that has oppressed us, they couldn't tell, has taken place, was predictable. so the ministry has taken power, and that dictated the government people's c, u on demands and independent prob, into the depths of over 40 people,

drink protests against the un mission. in the democratic republic of congo and the death toll from a deadly fire in johannesburg, business district continues to rise with over 70, including children, confirmed that the good afternoon for moscow, and welcome to the weekly on our tea international with this week's top stories. i'm here, elizabeth users top court has stripped the french ambassador of diplomatic immunity and ordered his immediate explosion from the country. that's, as locals gather to demand paris, withdraw its troops. the thousands of new here in flooded the country streets for a 2nd day in a row, calling for french troops to go. paris has refused to recognize the new military

government that sees power. in last month, 2 french president mccann also reiterated his support for the leaders and endorsed april was sanctions as well as the blocks possible intervention. we heard from the people at the raleigh. we're here to express our determination, our commitments, and i would do motion to getting differentiated 3 fourths and all the bases out of our country. i think that today will give a one week ultimatum to front to get it sold just all just needs. yeah. otherwise. next week we'll bring together 3 media new share is and if they do not leave the country or we can really enter the base and much in place for the because they're all land that belong to the germans. then not french lands right there, but we have seen the inevitable and imperative departure all the french forces in accordance with the decision made by our legitimate authorities to day. we are here

to say that the people of new york. 2 standing up more than ever mobilize them, determined to assume 0 bold face of these colonialist friends with the v this imperialist fronts. that's it, a visit. what for once a day is freedom for everyone. we don't want french bases anymore. we don't want france anymore. we really respect the friendship but, but we don't want their system of the number and hard friends to see the, pardon me, joe, as parts of military corporation against the total is from the producer from then you didn't is done on them. did you mind defensive at all? costs the device doesn't follow one in order every day. here is more determination, more head to was. every thing that's the science it deserves to break it down and varies. here we do it as have never been sold it to them it in the less the 6 the cages exposed to say what really be the outcome of this has turned off. there

is uh its products in the new jersey and sky and friend, friend by remind me of the my phone to, to, i'm not too far away, but there's a pause. i aside uh there is, uh any children in the army and its people decide to say no, no, no, to the farmer bush. me, i'm new here, was headed by a coo back in july, be coming the latest country, and that's the whole region to top older western back liter. recently, africa has seen a wave of military takeovers with the bond being the 6 country that's experienced a coo in the past few years. on wednesday, a group of army officers seized power from president ali bongo, whose family had ruled the country for over half a century. in order to ensure a continued respect for the rule of law, good relations with our neighbors and with all the states around the world and to promote the continually of the state,

while the demonstrating our firm determination to honor our international commitments. the committee for the transition and restoration of institutions has decided to reopen the land sea and air borders with immediate effect as of the 2nd of september, 2023. not now, according to the french minister of the armed forces, paris suspended its military cooperation with this central african country following the 2. meanwhile, the bonds main opposition party has urged the rebels to return power to civilian rule. that's after the country's new leader promised a new constitution warning, there won't be rushed elections to avoid quote, past mistakes, or to corresponded, knew of who you couldn't get updates us on the latest. we do know that the current prices in the g as a reading today to into the future of democracy and g and across these to how region it is also created a moment of reflection for, for arms about the 5th to most of the policies as well. as a few to influence of the machine as a wisdom,

as simple as it can. countries as things stand at the moment across the african continents, people are even asking, is there still a place for friends to meet you? or even in ethic, on the phone, said that we've got most people, but i would say that there was a kind of hypothesis behind these french behavior. because if there is nothing suspicious going on, then white despite that is that the spectrum of us citizens is for us to present to leave. so me, and there was something in the wind. why do a mfc? so in case you look at what just happened in google, and it's prove that people are fed up with friends present bone, go told us to make noise. yes, we're making noise from small slave. would you agree? civic, allow for us, france was our colonizing country, used as many times in my opinion, france must understand the current regime was they must create a framework for dialogue to listen to each other to find a solution. well, the dominos of wisdom power is the forwarding of hawks and destroying over africa,

feeling foster. the 4th wisdom controls african countries is in the middle of a crew to top of that is coverage. i'm corrupt to wisdom that's need is and that's exactly what we are seeing in the bottom. we are also told that the sweet, each of the general is expected to take place the actually constitutional quotes for the next few days. did you remember that a few days ago? no one you were a bundle, was a way his family was, but hopefully we are aware of some sort of information i rebundle on dean back missed the audio. bundling dean bar is kept on the surveillance surrounded by his family and his doctors, the people consumed, arrested for treason against state institutions, message me separation of public funds organized as national financial embezzlement, forgery. falsification of the signature of the president of the republic, corruption and drug trust again. and those claims are the claims that i'm hearing the past weekend. friends of course, colonized the body in the late 19th century. it's who dental 1960 and during that

time france exploits took up arms natural resources even after they picked the president to move the country to their own present to the country. and bennett said that president was they puppets of frogs, and that present was a month bundle on the bus, whose son the now present that we're discussing now is um i, i live on going team by to over his father and the father passed away in 2009 that also tells us that the component has been under the same leadership. and the one family need assistance with 9 to 60. and that family is still controlled by friends and wisdom powers. alabama at the moment is calling when people to make noise and do something basically calling on the people she had kept impulsivity for decades and supported what she was enriching himself with the support of wisdom. paul was to help him and those people are indeed making the noise, but it's nothing with that. the president is asking for it at the noise that they show as integration for the feeder and independence that they're trying to achieve . they quoted to has taken place was predictable. alibaba was always tempered in

the elections. so the ministry has taken power and that dictated the governance people's punish, leave the page seems to definitely or sees on house arrest his relatives and calibrate just odyssey where lives by the tune to select for 64 years. we've had just wondering the regime that hasn't pressed task as gab a needs we could no longer find the joy in living for loss or losing our values to the country and no longer gave us anything. things we learned from our families disappears. thing god, to dates, we have the army fronts, consoles, the pumping of the bonds, oil and the uranium that comes out of the blood go straight into front to healthy food is economists to help you to do that. it's a nuclear weapons and it's a nuclear power plants, such as a $110.00 companies upon the us. extracts possibly toilet the, and the majority of people in those areas are moving in absolute cobit each. the

amount of resources this country has is phenomenal. so no one, the wisdom powers and from the, the prospect of africa kicking out wisdom, influence out of the shape of monday, out of the bunch. and all these other countries at the rest of africa, something that's present puts in, did say that's we want you to keep your resources. we want you to enjoy your service and make partnerships and calibrations that you feel that a safe and secure. and then you have top, you will need a saying that's what needs to be done in these crises. this is for them to improve african policy. they've been significant in particular in this a how it should be a wake up call for us in the chair where they're waving russian flags sinking an anti french song, which shows that our soft power, our influence, is much smaller than we thought. the point is it has failed and continues to go run . we need to start the dialect with africa again. and it's representatives need to understand that we not only want something from them,

but we can offer something. no alarm bells have been ringing in paris. now the bone has been able to get rid of its presidential puppet to the intervention of its military. background has once again compromised france. africans are turning the page a z and responsive had to close ties to, especially became independent from fries in the 9 to the sixty's, as well as the but, but news yet remains economy cli dependent on its full on the minus the disease. one of those poor was countries in the world. we all know what french age does to these countries. it really helps to keep tabs and control these countries, but it will then be very interesting, i must say to keep an eye on all of this to see if you call us. we'll also see this is unacceptable because we all knew that the united nations has already condemned these crews. um the u. s. and the u. k as well, but on what basis? that is the question. is it because of democracy, or is it just that it is a start of the covenant station? we ask because a really starting to see and recognize the day that it was at this point. we also

heard from victor archive global affairs analyst and conflict expert. he told us, france has difficulty accepting it, no longer controls its former colonies. frances used to having puppets, in all of his 14 countries in africa, pricing, 144. my calling is in term. it's finally difficult to accept reality on the ground right now. and it is or the drives down. so from like a regular head, most of the school kids, the sort of things it has that kind of control or they have. and so that is, defies international uh long diplomacy by refusing to accept for the government, the government, the government programs,

there's no, there's no parcher, you know, and the government around today is a richard government ensure. and if they have, i said the bus that had to go with it has to be on to the new government is in place. they cannot on that phone by themselves. decide what for those who will be or what to be from the vision. as a french x, it is from this the whole region looks increasingly likely, easier is nor their neighbor has extended a helping hand and solving the crisis. you all, jerry and president has been vocal in his opposition to any military action making a proposal aimed at a wording a direct confrontation arc using my my h. r. explains while jerry a is so concerned about escalations in the region as is there a still william from the up he will following the military coup in july, neighboring all his area has stepped forward with the peas initiatives in hopes of resolving the prices in the sub saharan country, there was

a cool new share. we confirmed that we are in favor of constitutional legality and it is necessary to return to that legitimacy. we are ready to help them. all the serial stories have expressed their willing list to facilitate peace mediation. the north african officials proposing a transitional phase that will last for a maximum of 6 months with all missouri and parties taken part in the discussions that is in hopes of eventually leading to the quote restoration of constitutional order in the countries. a military intervention could ignite the whole sound region . an old uria will not use force with its neighbors. no solution is possible in this year without the participation of old julia as it is concerned by what is happening in this neighboring country. old jewelry is willing to help the new sherry ends restore the constitutional legitimacy in the context of such conflicts . the notion of foreign military intervention is also familiar. and i was your,

you know, stories have made it clear that they oppose amy, for, and meddling in major, even the 1st hand understanding of the ramifications of such a move. the mother of nations speaks from a position of experience by personally and many o julia did not see an example of mid train to invention, new case like these that has 6 digits. and we have, you know, neighborhood the example of libya that has proven to this short stake for the whole region. and we are paying the price. those who conducted before intervention have left the country. and they left us with these trinity, with this crisis on our hands. what is the situation today in the countries where there were a military interventions, look at what is happening and lead to be in syria. waiving the military intervention in this year is a direct right tool julia and where injected completely and categorically is close

to underscore that pulls the duffy libya has, has a shadow of distress and apprehension over its neighboring nations. most notably, all his area, the 2011 nato intervention in libya resulted in nothing but turmoil and k off in the region as a whole. when the country is responsible for the interference, leaving the via any neighboring space to grapple with the dire after mad on their own. the soul of conduct in 2011 created an open on the small kitchen, libya, but it is no longer the sole source of them supplies form groups operates. and in this, i help the security that human libya allows traffic, is terrorist and on state talk to is to exploit highly poor as an unguarded, bold, as drug and human traffic is often employed, the same roots in context. and they have found innovative new ways to finance miller drop durations. the migration him to all julia has also arisen as the lead beyond civil will guides us. and my girls who are intending to uh,

is it transit through also til in libya. but it is not just maybe a board the knowledge area. another example is the sub saharan country of molly, whose political and rest has also traveled algeria with terrorism threats. and now another potential threat of a similar scenario is coming from new jersey. as those serial contains in extensive, nearly 1000 kilometer border with major within a desert region, those serves as a staging ground for assignments militants, and a passage for sub saharan african migrants. given this reality, any recurs of foreign military intervention would place the area under significance, train hands. it's sense to reason that i was genius, wrongly opposes the notion of such intervention. repeating out of concern that these actions would only exacerbate and disturb allies, the over the fragile region, as it has been proven before. now to south africa where

a deadly fire in johannesburg, on thursday costs scores of casualties with the death toll still rising. us over 70 people, including children, have been killed and at least 50 injured in the blaze. the multi story building in the central business district was reportedly an informal settlement for homeless people sought shelter. the cause of the fire is still under investigation, but south african president, 0 rama bosa said the tragedy is a wake up call to address the housing situation in the city. meanwhile, the russian president has express condolences to south africa encounter part. here's what people at the scene had to say. so, so far was just to make sure that these are the new bodies which might be saved. and then from there we did over the symptoms for diaper solutions and not finding the isaac reading with people that just the the theme for seriously. sorry. so that

is a, what is a big sometimes of course, to on their products. easy to go. don't use any of the aging devices to try and get people to put, you know, i just need you to know the cause of the fire by day investigations. we don't mind because when does the tvs is that? do we have uh taking responsibility needs to make sure that that building is well kept if they do send it to dc, but they can be able to predict how it is within find itself in the situation ways . so for a simple one or 9 year designs on the side, so i'm going to so i just never knew, i know, do supply out when i was, you know, when i started to do something. so i went outside as more arranging the task was all i'm doing here and this was the one that's the that's i can't then function

anything to worry and judge some. some guy who was the russian president vladimir, put in will hold talks with his turkish counterpart. we're just tell you've heard a want. and so to you on monday, one of the key items on the agenda is a potential new format for the green deal. following a meeting between the countries, foreign ministers for to announce a new package of proposals from the u. n. a, that restarting the agreement. we shall be trying to tell you, but as soon as the russian has the months concerning the experts, if it's great and fertilizer, we have some the importance of making these demands, thanks to 2 ts, assets and contributions. the united nations has prepared the new package of proposals. we believe that this is an appropriate basis for revitalizing the initiative. according to service media, the proposals include the integration of a russian agricultural bank into the switch system and the on blocking of frozen

assets of russian fertilizer companies in europe. that's as recent reports show western in ports of russian gas, green and fertilizer have risen since 2020 a sign anti moscow sanctions have not had the desired effect. r t contributor rachel mars and brings more details. hey, it looks like the european union has found some loopholes in their very own anti russian sanctions. was fixing it to russian. president vladimir put you in by loudly proclaiming in order to impress the girlfriends you creating present, applying their zalinski that they are cutting themselves off from cheap brushing. gas european countries have found at least summer lease by the training. they are very understated principals and sneaking russian liquefied natural gas in the back door. but this happens, escaped the attention of a british and g o. e u countries are estimated to have spent nearly 5300000000 euros buying over half of all russia's l n. g, during the 1st 7 months of 2023, with spain in belgium. the 2nd and 3rd largest buyers worldwide,

countries into european union are buying significantly more russian liquefied natural gas. now than they did before. the invasion of ukraine. we're talking about a 40 percent increase of russian liquefied natural gas being imported by the you between january and july of this year. now that's compared to the same period in 2021. before the conflict went red hot. according to a new report, belgium in spain are behind only china as the top global importers of russian super jo, gas. so much for the ease energy commissioners play back in march for countries to expedite their divorce from russian gas. we can and to get 3 depression, guess completely as soon as possible. still keeping in mind our security of supply, i encourage all member states and all companies to stop by and rushing. ellen g, a note to sign any, you guess contracts with russia. once the existing contracts have expired,

countries seem to be more interested in flirting with russia to fulfill their very own needs. then divorcing, although maybe they just didn't want to tell their mom, they're the energy commissioner for fear that she took the roof over that relationship. it's revelations like this set of let's some of the blocks on leaders to denounce europe's approach to, to their anti russian sections. the heavy fisher price, the policy of sanctions has failed. and the question is, what about the politicians who are in favor of it? the common sense here is for them to count their losses as someone has to accept responsibility for the actions. the whole world is laughing at the policy of european sanctions. meanwhile, german industries suffering from high energy costs in the wake of the north stream pipeline network, caring russian gas being mysteriously blown up, hasn't been able to crank out essential chemical products at the same pace. so it has turned, for example, to importing fertilizers from russia. most recently as an increase of 334 percent

to about a $167000.00 tons of fertilizer for all of washington's pestering of berlin to become less dependent on russian gas. it's not just becoming more dependent on price, your imported american liquefied natural gas, also russian liquefied natural gas, and also increasing its dependence on russian ends of products rather than producing those for itself and then selling them like it used to do for cash. so same kind of dependence, but without the profits for berlin big when there. and that trend also applies to the block as a whole, which queen toppled it's in ports of nitrogen fertilizers from russia. it was a great assets for germany last year to make itself independent of russian gas supplies, gas, and energy account for 80 to 90 percent of the production costs of manual set of eyes. this also means that in the end imported fertilizers on nothing more than cheap rushing natural gas at the next stage of the value chain could miss playing

games with gas and the sled to very high fertilizer prices. and without them, we do not have foot security. guess is a major role material for fertilizers, production in europe, and ports, almost 40 percent of the letter from russia. and then there's japan, which has been riding the anti russians, spacious trains of its western allies. it also increased its in for it says russian grain by get this 5679 percent in july, year on here. and just under 510 percent over the 1st 6 months of this year. so over a larger timeframe that's compared to last year. and now it seems that the word is starting to get out. and key up is getting really upset with all the cheating that its allies are doing behind its back with russia particularly already and circumventing their very own priced cap and post on rushing crude at $60.00 a barrel last december by purchasing oil from other countries like india,

but just may have had a russian identity before immigrate to india, and co mingled with other fellow oil molecules there before being refined and sold on the global market before the invasion, india was buying russian oil, but the level of their inputs was very marginal only around one percent of their imported oil. now it's on the level of almost 40 percent, which is a really dramatic change. energy is still getting even more expensive in europe, despite reserves being high and demand lower. it turns out that europe's biggest producer, norway, isn't supply as much gas as it was anticipated. and that's sending gas prices up about 25 percent just this month. with the increase built in supply risk. and arguably, no one seems more lucid on europe's digital economic outlook than the western press particularity out of the us. with doom and gloom,

and even mocking headlines popping up everywhere and with inflation staying high across europe. and in some cases, even accelerating. there's really no end in sight to the cost of living crisis for europeans who bear the brunt of all of this. and according to local officials, at least one civilian has died and 8 others were injured in ethnic classes. during protest in the northern or rocky city of 3rd cock splashes are ruptured over plans to hand over a security building to local authorities. for nearly a week. tensions have been escalating between the federal government in baghdad and kurdish authorities and the northern region. the director of the local health authority said protest or sustain injuries from bullet stones and broken glass. one member of the security forces was reportedly injured. officials have since announced a city curfew the u. n. has called for an independent

investigation into wednesdays, incidents in the democratic republic of congo, in which $43.00 people were killed, $56.00 wounded, and a $158.00 arrested during protest against the un mission in the city of goma. officials claimed that a religious sect is responsible for the incident. a warning to view or some images in the report are distressing. the government of the republic is concerned and is closely monitored in the incident which occurred on such as august 2023 in the city of goma. following the cold for the protest against my new school. the original forces of the east african community and the international energy of the process was instigated by the fall of us, of a mistake of religious sect you and that religious event. they took actions that posed a dentist to public order and caused the death of a police officer. law enforcement intervene to restore order and come to the city. i wouldn't be put on gloves,

knew what's being happening in the east and the i see that these in the box of goma on the what's the so at that point was um and the purpose that to hold in by religious leaders on local communities in that region, what i do is the un peacekeeping missions that these most cool because allegations that to me in that sense has said to take this ticket has been to protect this has been, you know, social phase do preventative funding because even bought more money in the eastern part of the i see that you dismissal for more details had they just had me tell you, found in for, because now i'm going to meet you in peacekeeping mission that looked at the home. are you doing us? it'd be say in this mission to find the people that know tired of the you and the reason that has to be on that point. and that's why we've been so um you and the secretary general, the tennis team in east saying that the you and just keeping ease on. he's finding

ways that moving out because they have faith in their mission. and that's what was that. why do i need this is vince of also how about i and you certainly can do configuration that day as opposed to something that i'm not even sure. i mean because the fusion back now we are finding a situation where the police or he says this. sonya is, wasn't forced to be and joining that, this is really sad to see. now that i get in to see the on the fly, do you know where those are finding this? we've been looking pretty time useful. we saw that the video to 50. you tell me kind of what your ended up there all for now, but be sure to check out our t dot com for the latest on everything happening around the world. thanks for joining and don't so far. my colleague, nicky aaron will be taking over at the top of the hour the .
