the, the, the, this is the size of the latest is right for me. over to paul, but housing, people displaced on the south of the southern suburbs of bi, reached for the past 3 days as well as target tape buildings where people have been seeking shelter. and all the crew take his among the remains of his race flying st . lebanon, where the local health ministry report schools of people have been killed in the past 24 hours at 910. well enough concierge, where the president has pledged it's not selection to see what position to vacate government buildings. protesters have rejected the old and the cooling, full, the head of state to resign immediately low for the will

freeze. all 3 is trying to low, tries to reassure people that does nothing to worry about this winter is worse than gas turbine gas problem and allegedly hope this applies to the country, legal, squabbles with a lot of cool energy company, the life from the russian capital. this is on the international is great to happy with us. on top story, this island is ready for these have launched 3 consecutive strikes on the lebanese capital. this saturday smokes can be seen below it and i thought they were the southern suburbs with the 3 attacks, for fortunately, hitting within a 20 minute period for 2 to exclusively obtain file a t shows several destroyed buildings. as we know, reports on casualty numbers. so i saw a day earlier, the idea of what was the targeted favor of several times killing some 59 people with close to 2 hundreds more in just as,

according to the lebanese health industry, the a 2000 pound us guy didn't fall on an 11 story residential building was used by the israeli military force, which sends to this channel shows the high rise collapsing in a densely populated area. the idea of claims of hezbollah was using the talent as a base attacks continued elsewhere in lebanon to affecting those fleeing to supposedly safe parts of the country. a correspondent steve sweeney in bay roots can tell us more of a day or a quiet and tranquil town. in the mountains of bob to district south of the liberties capital bay route. it was the size of one of 3 is why the attacks on buildings, housing displaced, people, monday evening. this is the size of the latest is right foaming over the apartment housing. people displaced from the south of the southern suburbs of by route for

the past 3 days as well as targeted buildings where people have been seeking shelter again as well. struck without warning, cutting at least a people, mainly women and children. among the revel schoolbooks, children, school bags and clothes. local say there was no husband are present to the people that were killed, posing no threat to as well. hundreds of miles away from the border. just a few miles away and now removed another building destroyed by as well. at least 8 people were killed when as well struck at dawn. among the victims, most of whom were women and children was little idea. he had a whole life ahead of her. but isabel snuffed out in an instant, days off to the attack and civil defense workers are still searching the area as we arrived, they were carrying away the remains of someone killed his pulse, a vibrant search through the rubble for whatever they could find, hoping against hope tennessee was yet to say who or once it was targeting here,

leaving locals, wondering why actually we were sleeping and somewhere at 430 or 5 o'clock in the morning, we heard a loud bang. and as if something was collapsing, people started to leave the building to escape and we noticed how 3 apartments had collapsed to the ground. we knew that there were refugees living here. that is all civilians. and we ran to help people. there are many victims here including women and children. there was no time for feelings, and no time for fear. we entered this apartment, there was devastation inside and people could not get out of there. the situation was terrible. it was dark and nothing was visible. a good name, so as long as the solver was sleeping at 4 30 in the morning, i was woken up by the sound of breaking glass in our house. as soon as i could see, even barely, i went downstairs, there were refugees who arrived mainly from the southern districts and suburbs. ordinary civilians who fled to shelving and found shelter. here they ran here in search of a safe place and that's what happened. these were women and children,

as well as on armed men who had nothing to do with the war. then up was a photographer king, did you notice it onto escaped? the is why the aggression in the south. on monday she was one of the 20 people killed by, as well as it struck the appalling block in which they were sheltering. a women and 8 children among the victims. we spoke to a friend of the family who said she was supposed to meet a brother, but said she would meet them like to stay in for dinner with a family, but she didn't get to eat a meal with is my wiping out generations of her family in an instant, there was a go in feeding haven, lebanon. the is what, let's try to. so civil unrest division, perhaps even the civil war. the sheer community in particular is coming under attack with benjamin netanyahu. these are the prime minister describing them as the enemy within this place. people feel they are being hunted down, targeted them all being described as massacres in lebanon, with no pulse of the come to you safe. this is steve sweeney for all the remote 11

on the black sea coast. with public kazi, is relaying from a 2nd day of on rest of the scene. protest is occupied government buildings. they want the presidents to resign is a proposed investment deal with russia as language anya has offered to hold a snap election way, who run for a new ton of correspondence take or stone of reports from the capital city. so who basically the opposition telling me that they are taking the word of a president, john. yeah. and that, that they are staying here and occupying this building of the parliament until they get what they want. uh those, uh, well, people who are still here, there's about a few dozen uh, probably twice. so maybe 3 times as more uh, inside the building itself. they're preparing to spend the night here. over here you can see that they've brought barrows. they are burning wood. there's uh, there's more over that just to just to keep people move,

really those who are adamant to stay here. what this whole thing is about. it's the initiative over the in comes into governments that would essentially allow if it is passed into ends made into little that would allow for and is to purchase land here in a pause. yes. but people hear the protest as the opposition. they are saying that this would open the door for only gods to move in and just to try out all the sweet spots. and essentially the free is that, that would have to, on a pause. you have to read this from public or into and only gawky, basically to be ruled by these 4 and only gods. but one of the leaders of the old position who i've personally spoken to recently, they have told me that it is not the case. we have seen russian flags along with the flags of the republic of, of kazi, at the, in the hands of the protest is here. and they are saying that the adamant if everything goes the way they want, they are adamant to continue to build up on the very friendly relations with the

rush out through. russia is arguably the biggest ally of a pause in the biggest geo political friend that this republican has. now at the same time things um, well they're in a bit of a stalemate because the incumbent president, he essentially is of the deal to uh, to the opposition. his said leave a vague case is building the parliament and uh, any uh, any other buildings that they this, they got their hold over and they have said to do that. and essentially he will step down and the will hold, the public will hold snap elections again. these people here, they're saying no, we're on taking you word for it, fast, you resign, and then we, we will vacate the, the, this building and that's, that's how things will end. but again, what's the best way to hear the sides done directly from them? so have a listen to how the president and how the opposition have put this. there is

a lot of pressure on members of parliament to making a legal decision about the resignation of the president. firstly, such a decision will not happen. and secondly, if it does happen, it will not be followed through. i don't want people to think that i am holding on to power, but rather that we need to find a constitutional way forward. if we don't comply with the constitution, our country will not survive. those who have taken control, those who attempted a cuckoo must vacate the buildings. after that i will be ready to call an election and resign. the vice president will run the country and i will run in the election . it was the president has stated that he is prepared to step down. if we leave this building, the duties of the president would then be assumed by the vice president genea has expressed a desire to call for early presidential elections and running them. awesome. yeah, yeah, i would like to know your thoughts on this. do you agree? some new yeah. do you think you should step down? well,

well things here were quite hectic here on friday is people they were dismantling defense around this building right now. it is little very peaceful and very civil people are just while they're just mingling, they're sharing their opinions, they're discussing as to why they don't like this uh, agreement propose this investment agreement proposed by the government and again they, they, they all being very peaceful. there's no police presence here whatsoever. so again, you can, you can have a look for yourself what the atmosphere here is like. so it seems that right now, both the opposition and the government, they are ready to make this 1st move to insight, more violence. and it seems, at least to me right now, that they are ready to find some common ground through tools and within the legal framework. and this is actually something that the russian foreign ministry has cooled on, decides to. russia is closely following the events in friendly casa,

which have once again led to internal political tensions. unfortunately, opposition forces have not been able to resolve the differences with the country, is legitimate tools. socrates through a civilized and mutually respectful dialogue and have resulted to actions outside the legal framework, escalating the conflict. this has led to a crisis in the republic and regardless of the outcome hinges of kazi, as development, the russian side expects that the current situation and up cause the will be resolved peacefully and through political means without interference in the countries internal processes. now, from what i understand the opposition on the incumbent government, the on talking directly to each other, the public chamber of a positive that has taken the on itself of the role of the media. in fact, just a couple of hours ago that delegation has left this building off to talking to the

leaders of the opposition and they brought the message to the president they took to the president as well. right now, there is no solution. they haven't agreed on anything, but according to the representatives of the public chamber, well, these tools and these contacts, they will continue their work in the coming days as for how things stand right now . again, the opposition, they're saying that they're on the, on going anywhere, they are meeting the government off the way. they demand that the president and the anti government stepped down and they aren't leaving until they get what they want in turn, the president, the government, the on the they all saying they aren't leaving until the opposition does. so again, it seems like an absolute stalemate. so in the coming days, hopefully with the the efforts of the public chamber, all the positive things will move closer to these people who alternately want to better for the nation to find common ground and results. this prizes my calling to

get to know, know, discuss the icons. the a crisis with european studies were such as stephen gotch. well, i think it would be really a premature to say that these are anti russian protests because we have seen the processors coming with the russian flags, watts, uh, its seems to be the biggest concern is basically the fear of a hobby else uh, from uh, the only only got overtake, but maybe they are afraid of. uh, georgians, ridge georgians with russian citizenship buying lines, you know, cause yeah. so this is what we have to remember, a call this is and the holidays there is very sensible. so uh, when we see the warming of nations between the last 4 really see this, of course, mates uh, a policy owns it professionally solved. so cynthia is a bit motion about the possible consequences. and the underlining i would say,

uh, the underlining issue here is of course, of the cost to move the interference of $40.00 of mater, neighboring georgia's per western president, who is also the country's opposition leader, is supporting the protest. and i'm kind of a claiming authorities are attempting to parse through russian legislation, how she saves that. how much impact has film? is there a bitch released statements hot on public opinion in counseling, or do you think how influential is shape? first of all, it is is campbell that somebody who used to be in a basset or before and country is now a president. so she wasn't baset or friends. and now president of georgia and has been pursuing the very radical prenatal policies. and she's basically a, she's basically a successor, you know, i don't want to go successor of all soccer freely. so i. busy would not expect

anything less then modeling. yeah, because of that is, wants me to once they, once to a conflict which would make russia busy and as the minister of foreign affairs of rush to sell you love said the last one from the 2nd war. the 2nd front and the war against russia. so conferences is they the perfect spot for that. the only 3 to for reactions to these lines is official, the ruling georgia dream party, one the countries parliamentary vote last month, pensions flat and to please see this done today. off of the countries electoral commission released the final results on by stephen seen taking place between politicians with the leader of georgia is pro western united national movement balancing the country's election, the cheese haines off. and he made the announcements while out on the streets.

the 1st instance around the electoral commission building before being pushed back by police by claiming valid fraud and russian meddling and midwest and close to investigating both in irregularities. no evidence. however, all those claims of being provided. we spoke to the head of a think tank in the country who believe the physician lead is a trying to serve a pro to be full. that allies be fine, get it finished ration need. don't hear back as recent weeks have shown, the opposition does not have enough potential inside the country for the mass. continuous riley's feel position lead is a cooling for. they are counting primarily on western support. they don't even try to hide it by the way, former president sock has really directly stated that they needed large mass rallies in order to attract the attention of the west. and now they are in

a hurry because the opposition wants to do something such as forcing fresh elections and so on. and it should be done before trump's inauguration. and because the main driving force behind this protest movement and g o is associated with the soros foundation and the attitude of trump and his team towards soros is known to be extremely negative. that is why i think trump's team will suppress this international activity of soros, and in any case, it will not support those public organizations. those will start to use that feed from the hands of soros. i think the leaders of the georgia know position understand this very well, and that is why they want to speed things up. but i repeat, they have no potential inside the country. and that is why i think that all this will end with nothing. the all 3 is partially state owned energy company. oh, and the say is it's receives notice from gas problem that it will hold gas supplies to the alpine country from today the russian, the company itself, however,

is yet to confirm the news as well. many ferren energy experiences over the winter season, the austrian tongues websites, people have nothing to worry about. the dominant ladies and gentlemen, i can inform you that we have been preparing exactly for this adventure to ality. always under the condition that the republic of austria can't be blackmailed, that you as austria and consumers can to be blackmailed. that means i can promise you, no one in austria will freeze because of a lack of gas. and no home in austria will be cold. so this brings you the backgrounds to this l m. v said during the week that was seeking to recover a $242000000.00 arbitration debt from gas from the cold decision pulse down on the international chamber of commerce rules came as russia temporarily stopped at scott's supplies in 2022 to germany. however, in may this, yet a russian quotes concluded the doubts from would not be effective by decisions in a foreign jurisdiction. well, that will comes as

a you to and rhetoric is imagine for most areas, neva, the czech republic. last year it probably announced it was nearly 100 percent free of dependence on russian gas. thus, with the price of alternative energy sources on the rise at prague is once again round pinged off its inputs from low sky. as the weather it gets colder and with guys from potentially closing the top of gas prices in europe have risen by around a 3rd since the summer. well yeah, the peak levels will reach to on thursday plumbing to more than 45 years per megawatt hour for my austria environment is the car in to nice. so 12 is the issue between 0 and fee and gas problem could have been resolved through torques. they should have taken another approach and said, who was the partners from guests, from which they know well and figured out how to respond to this decision. so wrong then reactive by saying, okay,

then if you don't pay us the new rates and here we are in a situation where all of you will have been trying ever since spring 2022 to to say good bye to russian on told it's all started was cold and it was fine and dandy was gas and now it's about the next section packaged out and chief of russia. so it's just turning away from russian, a commodity exports. it started in process, it didn't stopped in last. cool. and of course, it's just not the approach by mrs. on the line to in to and read this reassurance, this narrative, the russians, i went from izing and a check stub, which is not true because i guess is flowing wired to your brain. ukraine would have for trends as of a city 1st of december,

which would become an additional problem that has been a tremendous increase in out of chief from russia to the spot market in europe. so it's not russia that disclosing down. we've seen the tremendous increase of the gas prices, which hits in particular the electricity market and drive the inflation. the fact to test that is the move of all the energy and tens companies, such as the petrochemical industry to the united states, to canada. because the energy is more affordable there. we see that's all that homes. of course the you pins, they are the ones. whichever would be marginalized in the global um, and to data. and especially a country like austria which used to be among the did the metal fonts. it used to be on my top 5 and you, it's now at the very end it's number talk to 7 because it has encountered

in taurus, problems over the last 2 years. which all over the phone, the it's, none of them is due to, as they used to call it, pretends inflation food is more, etc. this is nonsense. it's home made prominence. quotes in the us as well as in bob way. must pay full $140000000.00 to a swiss german family. and 2, far as 3 companies. alons dispute the case originated some 3 decades ago when you are p and firms whose present stays back to colonial times began buying zimbabwe and far as trees on the phone lines. and the early 2 thousands, the southern african countries governments lows to reform to were ton ownership to the indigenous population and response the europe and claimants to involve the way to close around. i agreed to let the washington based, well the bank arbitrate on the disputes and after a series of proceedings as to legal costs pilots over the years,

the us court of appeals is not a pelzer ruling against the african nations government. judges in washington said zimbabwe waived its software and immunity and the case paving the way for the claimants to seek compensation. and bob way, however, said the dc quotes does not have the necessary jurisdiction. well, let's discuss the oldest with good size. let's see. so university of do, honda is both lecturer and then they'll be useful. does involve when government meetings, thanks for joining us on the program. so festival, why exactly dates involve way agree, so let the well defined in washington's thousands of miles from africa, arbitrate this controversial case. thank you for the question. the work bank has always had some interest in the case, obviously. and by the way, it stems from the sanctions that that one is involved with. one of the demands of the us government is that these and by, when government must big organization to a,

to the, for my wife, permission to farmers who owned the land be looking for them as, as you may have to call them. so this is, is been an extension of that process way the us government close actually is and through other means they've tried to force this in, baldwin government and this and, but when people to compensated this form is not only full but damages or of the development on the land, but for the land itself, the, when they pay for the land, they are land. this is where the dispute started. so the what bank has always been invested because it is part of the sanctions amazes. it was by the u. s. that stays in bubble cannot access any kind of a candle file, financial aid for the item if or from the work big. so maybe that's why they included the what been given cause issues. i'm just wondering if there was any way to settle this case locally in zimbabwe or at least take it to some regional cause

. 6 it was never going to happen because these and by way of people and even these and by the way, the government in this, in public quotes, they recognize the legit you miss of the lambs or phone program. it is actually one of the fund, the mid or 2 minutes of the, the bubble and constitution. that'd be land phone for them. was that invested and it is invisible. it is part of the lake as of deliberate, as you know, struggles that was waste in the 1970s. so they went through the u. s, because they knew very well that they had much has in the region or it was in by weight. so and what exactly was the legal justifications busy involved when government's initial move to nationalize the lines in question? it, it wasn't a legal issue, but it was more of a political issue. when it's in bible is end up with this colonialism. do just

a when independence coordinates to hook meta, there was a visa struggle, independent implied this struggle for independence in the 1970s. that ended up with independence in the 198 in 1980. so part one of the main reasons for elizabeth was, was the legs that the local people, when did they landed back? so what happened is in 1980, when they go to independence, there was a deal with the british. that's a, they're going to pay for that lives at when when's and bubble was to take the land, they will pay for the land, but they never fulfill. does that make sense? and because of that, if people became impatient ending the end of 2000, it wasn't really the government administrative because it was the people that goes up in punches and said with them to take the lead by floods and the deeds, the government or the cancellation of allies, the fuss is about 8 was an initiative by this. and by when people with a, we flood for this land. and this is what this was on many reasons for point to was

fights and nothing has changed. so we went to that just because they tried to connect the issue and we can mobilize the international community to get into the country. that's why that's when the such as what you post in the 2000. and so what comes next. a can symbolic way, take the cool case from here. i mean $440000000.00 is not a small sum for the country. a bladder and $14000000.00 is almost 10 percent of the annual and there's no buys, it will fit, can the legs and by weight is a lot of my me, i believe this is just to intimidate the country. is does to make the government give up and maybe they want to force the government to give back the legs. these could be the motivation behind the needs. so i, i believe that's what they are not going to. um implies that i'm going to focus on the court cases by july that they're going to focus on. busy they're

going to focus on the political side of that, this quote that's once you have any jurisdiction and we don't know how they're going to and how the us court is going to enforce this judgment. we don't know how it's going to happen, but it does not. you have to eviction as much as far as the government is present. thank you so much for discussing this with us. i really appreciate your time. we've been talking to kids, so i'm going to use the university of china is but the lecture on the low be useful does involve when government, thank you, have a good day. thank you. have a good one. having the way for a reset of relations bounce, one of the topics on the table at the ongoing symposium in southern russia, that sky, that if it goes from breaks on the is you nations for the 1st time? and yes, we spoke with a greek european call and none but who is attending the event. and he said his take on the spiraling energy crisis in europe is one is the prospect of the upcoming 2nd

to trump presidency across the atlantic. the division of course, europe's economy is in a very difficult position, and that's due to energy. we know very well that when the energy prices go up, so do all other goods. this is also the case with natural gas where russia was the main supplier of natural gas in europe. we see that all these sanctions are not beneficial for europe, so it would be good. i emphasize that, that is why i am here. that is what i am working to do to stop this cycle of war. it will be good for everybody. as a greek, i don't know whether i would vote for mr. trump in america. if i were an american, i would vote for him. as a european, i am a little afraid that the policies he will pursue may not benefit europe. but what i hope is that he will keep his promise to engage in negotiations with your president and that the end of the war will com. that's what i want the most. i think mr. trump will do it. he will exercise policies that will favor his own country. above

all, i find it very logical. i hope, however, that some of the things he will say in his speech will be beneficial for all of humanity. because to be honest, the president of the united states can affect the lives of almost the entire population of the world. always good to have a company here in nazi international if you'd like to find out more about any of all stories. so maybe watch some documentaries or read some type center checkout website or t dot com with back with more updates about 30 minutes. hope to see you then the the
