[000:00:00;00] the slovak ha wardens, it will come to a to crane, a slot of yours, and then speak doesn't in prison, the transfer of russian gas to europe. also ahead in our program this, our south africa's ruling party shift. the country, spite for independence celebrate, sits on the 1st trip. we hear from some of the amc leaders of adults. their priorities are for 2020 i mean you'd controversial between par as on africa as president metronome criticized as a consequence for not showing proper recognition of the french policies in the region. that comes as several countries to care from ship it draughts forces

the but to recap of the past 7 days on rights up to the minute developments as well. welcome to the weekly news review. poland has refused to allow a slovak delegation to fly through. it's aerospace on route to russia. the parliamentarians have already landed here in mall scope for energy supply talks. a comes as brought this lava threatened to sanction cube over plot the mirrors and then skis decision to cut the flow of russian gas to europe via ukraine. now the move prompted. slovakia is head of state to rely, talks into your printing company in a situation where the ukrainian parliament is adopting a law that intends to band even the transportation of oil to slovakia despite existing contracts under such conditions. my trip to ukraine is currently excluded

. if i have to go there just to take a picture and i am told that not a single drop of oil and gas will go to slovakia, then i don't have to go there. well, somebody is prime minister has joining the e u countries president in slamming, let them hear zalinski, robert faith. so say he's, he's sick of seeing him demanding him that's from the with god knows what you're going to do. cranium, president continues to damage just like this. declining president continues to damage the entire european union like this. the slovak republic will show that it is a sovereign country at this moment, zalinski deliberately damages the slovak republic and the european union. so what can we do? first, we can stop all humanitarian aid, even what was recently approved by the government of the slovak republic. the 2nd possibility is that the government of the slovak republic is determined to significantly reduce or even completely remove various social benefits that have

been given to printing and citizens who came to the slovak republic. since the start of the military conflict. well, and ukraine and brussels concluded to basically screw over e u countries likes it. ok. yeah, that we're still dependent on russian pipelines. asked trends that through ukraine and how they do that? well, by turning off the top about 10 days ago, meaning a loss of about 515000000 annually. first with ikea, and the potential here to another $1000000000.00 from having to pay more for gas. uh, from other sources and well brussels tosses. cash it keeps like it's wrapped around a stripper tool. actually, you members, staples actually, i can't seem to get any love at home. so, so vacuum prime minister robert pete, so says that he's just going to march right on over to the you in front of the energy commissioner and basically say it's a, it's key for us, bobby make a choice. not that he wants to create drama. he says he isn't quote,

interested in escalating tensions, but if the problem isn't solved, so back here, we'll have to take quote, hard reciprocal measures. shortly he says, when russell says that it doesn't see a problem here that they've been quote, working with the member states and with ukraine to prepare in advance for this scenario. which scenario exactly the one where the gas prices go up and blow a massive hole in the budget of you have another e country, you says that the gas coordination groups that last week, which is, i guess, another merry band, it's dest jockeys. and well, they don't see any security or supply issues for the you at all. just uh, you know, the industrialization of germany, skyrocketing debt and installation in france and the establishment region changing itself right out of power across the u because national economies suck now. and now,

so that, yeah, it's sounding the alarm, but other than that, no, no problem at all because the uses are there haven't been, any price increases since the new year as a result of this latest active economic suicide. and well, that's because the market's already hedge their bets that the you would, in fact do something really stupid to itself again, and that's already factored in this latest se, into their projections before the new year pizza had warned in his new year's address the trying to stick it to put in by going further into the whole, paying more for data, having to subsidize your training even more because it also cut off its own russian gas transit income and dealing with rising gas prices across the bloss. um, well, wasn't what winning was supposed to look like for the you, hunger, you can get russian gas or turkey at least. but it still recognizes how ukraine has basically screwed everyone over across the block. the development that led to the

latest price increases was ukraine. cessation of the transfer of russian natural gas on its territory to central europe since the end of the ukrainian transit road in mid december. the price of natural gas on the european market has increased by 20 percent. now hungry is energy supply secure, but ukraine's decision to stop transit shipments will lead to further price increases and creating new competitiveness challenges for central europe and the european union as a whole. oh yeah, and the problem isn't just as well actually. right now. there's also more dover, which was getting russian gas pipe to ukraine and into the pro russian enclave of trans mr. yeah. but then just decided to stop paying for it, wrapped up a $700000000.00 deck in the process, and then used about solving that problem by claiming that they just own the russian gas problem. majority own gas company that was delivered yet. i think i'll try that with my own gas company after racking up some bills and just see how that goes. like, what are they going to do?

you all produce any move you see it for many years. russia supplied natural gas. thanks to which in fact some trance and history a survive ship now due to the decisions made by ukraine and the modem. and as far as these trends and history a has lost his ad possibility. well, yeah, yeah. to kind of figure that that's how this stopped like that would have turned out, but hey, nothing to see here. all is going great in the you. they say he's going to come get you. it's hard to get by with electricity. and joshua just, the gas is running out and the right electrical blackouts, for example, today from 8 am to noon, and then from $6.00 to 8 pm. so for a total of 8 hours, we didn't have electricity through that. most of yes, there are difficulties because i used to wear a t shirt at home, but now i have to be fully dressed. it is become more difficult to live and we've simply doesn't look like these just to we are all tied to electricity, mobile phones, all devices run on electricity. and naturally,

these rolling blackouts are a surprise for some of those who have generators can cope with those who do not have generators are forced to rebuild their lives to the new so called reality might often break out the turtle next and have the sweaters across to you again because winter gas storage is way down this year compared to the same time last year as 69 percent capacity down from 84 percent right across europe. same in the u . k where it's 26 percent lower, but no, nothing really to worry about. everything's under control. you just have an e u member states. slovakia and outside here they're going to take drastic measures targeting what it considers to be inactive economic warfare against it by ukraine on the blocks chief diplomat. tie a callous to say that she's totally sure are the oh you countries are ready to continue to support your train to the point that the you will take over ukraine's bills to if the us under trump kicks zalinski over the basement and off their

wallet. speaking like someone who clearly doesn't have to worry about being elected to the job by popular vote, looks like the clowns in charge in brussels. are intent on doing a high flying truck piece out here without a safety net. but we heard from mr. worrying anomalous towards the welly on this. he said he's the you commission is likely to withhold energy support from slovakia . if the country strays from europe's pro ukrainian stumps, it is a very serious issue. i mean, it's not just the loss of a gas. uh for uh, slovakia, but it's also a loss of revenue because um somebody is gonna have to pay a lot more for its gas. and those, those are so accurate and squared a lot of money uh through uh, transiting gas to other other countries such as the czech republic and a hungry i think it's going to get

a lot worse because the european commission isn't going to help us. so voc, it's made clear that it really does. he does, they don't thing, but as the login deserves any help because it looks like it has explicitly opposed you policy the warranty period. so i would expect the walk in now to take the steps that he's thinking which, which is threatening to take, which is to um, stop selling electricity to ukraine. stop providing humanitarian assistance to ukraine. and probably a couple of cutting off uh, welfare to um, you ukrainian migrant since the lock you building a sofa for a cab that belongs to all that is the rallying cry from presidents to roll around the pool. so on the $113.00 issue of the african national congress is established with mr. robert post a is also head of the building in c, which ship modern south africa. and it's possible for independence party originated as a liberation movement,

fighting against apartheid and getting global support under the leadership of nelson mandela. and i made many economic problems in the country. the n c suite back into power last may as the major partner in the coalition government pledging to focus on this. the ability we heard from the south african foreign minister who lifeline predatory is international priorities of the toner. wherever they seem to be a little overboard that is able to help us with a logo or to the gods to help us to resolve this is the mrs. sorry for the development the alternative. but also for the,

for the picture that most of the individual policy is continues to be in the country and really save lives on the go button. financial funding for climate change. whereas where the most of the, which we knew also that was used for, for the, for the presidential budget. who's going to try to locate for the 2 full pallets times the pages of pain faces file. we're going to pay for a piece, the solution. these we believe is important because it's in line with integration shut up is in line with all the progressive policies will be related vision, including the to see do. so this is the own was when they meet accountability

and then that's why we continue to work on moving the out of his water. and that is getting by didn't international court of justice because we've been imported to the platform. so i'll talk if you need to. so that is the only thing that them to move us is that is that i installed the aggression we're going to advance the advocate for the piece to initiate that piece with the products, including the piece initially to use something to do, to ensure that to induce conflict as you dial everyone must be involved in the impact on the so anything that government does is in the home, by the way,

because this is the lovely new strategy. big one was to implement something as a new one, to introduce anything as it was in the process of parliament. it was on the issue, it must be completed or for the mission of interest. it's informed by the associated of the county is also informed by the national development plan. so those of no change the them, it is what the progressive intermission of these don't do with the human rights and are and for us has been to speak to informed by our constitution. so that is what we will continue to implement. and as the government or mission agreement, president mccomb sees african leader is how for government to sign part his 1st supposedly enabling them to keep their sovereignty. not so several african nations

have ordered french military forces to leave their churchy. that supposed to be falling through france is not retreating, and africa is re organizing itself. we chose to move out of africa, not because we had to move out. it was our commitment against terrorism since 2013 we were right. i think some african leaders forgot to say thank you. it doesn't matter. it will come with time. in gratitude, i'm in a good position to know is a non communicable disease of humans. but i will say it for all the african rulers who have not yet had the courage, abuse of either public opinions to say it, none of them would be a sovereign country today, if the french army had not deployed in this region. chad has been one of those rejecting mclelland's claims of african v does ingratitude so much that the foreign minister of data mind call them a lot is accusing face praise of the menu on the crunch of solving to stay in for africa on those remarks any further expressing his concerns over the president's

remarks, the minister emphasized french leaders must respect africans, but africa wouldn't have full for sovereignty to the 1st place without calling the addison and the imperial waste is that present mcclung is facing a backlash even in his own country. his own people have a problem with him, and that's why the tab need to see some, a crime should focus on his whole country and his own people. french leaders must learn to respect the african people and recognize the value of their sacrifices. france has never endowed the child to an army in a significant way or contributed to its structural development. and it's 60 years of presence marked by civil wars rebellions and prolonged political instability. the french contribution has often been limited to its own strategic interests, with no real lasting impact on the development of the child of young people. instead of attacking africa, president, i'm a chrome should focus his efforts on solving the problems that concerned the french

people. or even cynical as prime minister was my sancho has also joined the criticism, rejecting emmanuel, my crumbs assertion that african lead is full. the positions to face ministry support. sancho says franz has neither the capacity move and digit tennessee to a so african security even the sovereignty. i would like to say that in the case of send a goal, this statement is completely erroneous. no discussions or negotiations have taken place the date and the decision taken by sent a goal stems from it so well as a free, independent and silver and country. finally, he declares that no african country would be silver and today, if fronts had not deployed. let us know that france has neither the capacity nor the legitimacy to ensure africa's security and sovereignty on the country. it has often contributed to the stabilizing such an african country, such as libya, with disastrous consequences, notate on the stability and security of the health. finally,

it is the place to remind president mac chrome, that if african soldiers sometimes forcibly mobilized, mistreated and finally betrayed, had not deployed during the 2nd world war to defend fronts. it would still be perhaps today, german, even more close, most loyal supporters of which they are increasingly few in front would be very hot priests to say he has been successful on the african continent. and it seems like his countrymen also off the view that he has lost his touch. we all seen french politic students taking to social media and media other platforms expressing via and go over the remarks and decisions off with the face of president president my crowns remarks about the supposedly negotiated departure of the french army from senegal. and chad are denied by both countries. once again, casualness and uncontrolled words are worsening. our country's international relations in subordinate diplomacy will allow other results when the time comes. over the past few years,

the phones has been forced out of more than 70 percent of the african nations we have previously maintained. it submitted to prisons and today it's false. is the last, the conflicted, or rather confined to the bottom. and it's only a matter of time before those countries also realize that and make the decisions to get from all of the activities. even then the french president will deny his decisions. some reactions surrounding this journalist upon african comment theater moved the memo dba essays, mr. mcgraw on the statement clearly reveals from says views on its former holidays on the left, on the all in terms of the 2000 of those salaries. and so they kicked out by the applicant, people so we don't know why did you know countries, you know, right and dismissed because of present because of the coding is part of this, you know, so it's at this level for him to say that, you know, i think it's just been it's, i think it's a, it's a big embarrassment for, you mean, it's hard for us to be kicked out of africa for many years. fonts,

as i said, says, as, as piggyback and the results of the african people, you know, was a pass is what it is today because of the suite and the black african people and the results of effort that, you know, i think it's just another example of collodion and imperialist arrogance from may to my credit itself. you know, is this an example of seeing advertising of, uh, as another playground no for, for, for wisdom countries and the countries, the companies apprehends to their resources, could all say that the french lips because they wanted to go the pew alive. there was to be sent you to keep out for the people something else to tell you by today, luxury whistle blowers have given closed door testimony alleging the breast and the special forces engaged in a deliberate policy of executing them civilians. the soldiers play not a rogue se, yes, unit targeted males, young and old, even if they posed no threat to you, patriots. it again puts spock and focus suspected work crimes conducted and left down the stuff. that's right. corresponding to ego should download reports. you

case special forces in afghanistan carrying the banners of freedom and human rights to protect the innocent and this throne, whom they themselves have labeled as despotic oppresses while instead they are now themselves being investigated for acts of barbarism and war. crimes by terms of reference require me to investigation reports for extremely serious allegations. for the extra few additional cleanings will carry dodge in afghanistan by virtue special forces between mid as 20 to mid straight to 13. whether these were covered up, the said whether the investigation carried up by the role of the police was fits with that as well. it seems to be on says ok, yes, they to place yes, they will cover it up and no the police investigation was unsatisfactory.

testimonies of the 1st batch of special forces soldiers have been published and they aren't proud. one of the with this is told the inquiry that the u. k. lead proves as a quote unquote golden ticket to get away with murder, which was itself a bit utilized. and normalized when you describe what he said is more graphic, can you give us an example or an explanation of what you mean by that words that had been used about killing were like flat packing, flat packing them or witnesses were grunted and an image see to ensure that they felt safe sharing what they know names ranks places, according to an informant going on to the alias and 1799. i see us combined is bred a culture of fear within units and whistle blowing equaled fries, and it appears with respect to be from the face of the email west than that. because in the 1st line, it refers to a thing has occurred to ensure that the stuff offices keep their mouth shut. is

that how you read that? that is exactly how i read that, sir? yes. basically there appears to be a culture there of shut up. don't question in coming forward and giving evidence both in your statement and to the inquiry today. do you regard yourself as someone who has broken the code of silence? yes. as to how that might be perceived by others within the why the u. k. s. s. community, is there a danger that you might be branded as a traitor? yes. according to the transcripts of testimonials, the british se yes, didn't dig deep, and it's supposed search for terrorists. sometimes all the guy would have to be is simply to be of a sudden a age to end up. when i hit list a fighting age you may was, in fact the term coined by the combined is, according to and 1799. and the policy was clear, execution and it gets even worse because evidence would be planted on the body just

in case anyone starts it asking questions. what do you understand from what he said to you that he was suggesting that it was those of a fighting age? yeah. any man capable of picking up a weapon or any very young man capable of picking up a weapon. and that, as you have just described, could include those who are under 18 as young as 16 or younger 100 percent. it was comfortable as if this is part of standard operating procedures. it was almost doctrinal, it was normal. but i suppose what shocked me most wasn't the execution of potential members of the taliban, which was of course, wrong and illegal. but it was more of the age and the methods and you know, the details of things like pillows. that's what really is what shocked me and made me think long and hard about what to do with what i've been told. you describe a particular instance where a pillow had been put over the head of someone before they had been killed with a pistol. is nothing interpretation by you of what had been said or does not properly describe one of the things that he and 2101 said to you. yeah,

that is what was described. and 1799 digit code becoming aware from at least 2 or 3 people of rumors that weapons had been over being taken on target and then dropped to give the impression that the deceased individual had been. and when shot such a dropped weapon was colloquially known as a mr. wolf. now the inquiry was established in 2022 following accusations that the royal police pro failed to properly investigate you case special forces not rates and have gotten this done. and these initial revelations, with more witnesses in the pipeline to suggest the chem and might end up with a lengthy list of names to be indicted on the war crime charges. when we spoke to a former aid to the country is national security advisor who say you say it is becoming increasingly clear that work crimes have been committed enough comes such actions are extremely difficult to justify legally or ethically,

particularly as the victims were an armed and there were locked tools in affiliations to the top on which undermines the principles of lawful warfare. the pro is likely to expand on, covering more incidents and leading to potential legal actions and indictments for those implicated in war crimes. as well as just a matter of reforms within the s a s. well, the investigation into syria and similar allegations elsewhere suggests the tactics may have been more common. in s, a s missions globally reflecting a potential pattern of operations, conduct something that reflects very, very clearly on any group in organizations leading it. and now there have been hopes 2025 would be

a little less chaotic than the previous 12 months. but l a while fires and berlin being turned into the fireworks doors on is testing the prospect already the most from your team. get the grips with the early your headlines drive ahead 6 the you. what so you going? you didn't knew what we know is on here next week. go with it.

the hey, everybody, welcome back to the most. come use. welcome to 2025. good to see all again. we're still here. well, we are kind all still here at our little friend, dog e. s. isn't with us tonight? um sometimes you know, gender realignment surgery can have serious complications, particularly if you're, i'm certain that destiny. and sadly, i have to announce that now he's still holidays. if you will, this next week, or after the head doing the page turn and force. so when we start to think, well, i think we're going to start and to go to all usa. i mean, look the big on new on the haven't even got in mind a desk yet, and they're really shaking the tree upside down. incredible stuff. know who was the 1st people from the 1st victims? if you like of the, the big gun and the loan or the loan or whatever you wanna call them, hey, i think it was definitely our ask for the year. remember, good old ad justin too low too sweet to be also. we gave him the award last week.

we thought he was going to be on his way out soon. i'm sure as heck is watching him get full by you on and on. and the whole crew has just been to sway to ignore. let's have a look at us on the front, on the video or a side over getting my kids to the decision for them sharing the content to resign. as parties as a prime minister parties select next to a little bus nationwide. competitive. oh gosh, we're going to miss you just and we're going to miss you so bad. oh, not so where you know, just as great achievements. you know, he did achieve great things. uh, making sure that a big chunk of that some kind of an a how her boy arrangement with you know, assist the dying. you know, he did protect. now the l. g b, t crew, the blue hair brigade. he didn't says that the nazis wouldn't be revealed. the big list of the people that gave solos to after the 2nd world war and case it upset

canadians. so we do a lot for a tiny little minority. he did a lot for the tail that was wagging the dog. he didn't do much for the fuckers protesters. he didn't do much during cold, but he was a bit of an authoritarian ask. only, i think so you got to ask yourself, what exactly what the international community say when the president elect, not even the president decide. so he's going to basically annex the sovereign territory. and i take it over, maybe the panama canal, how, you know, maybe canada, you know, what else where else is he interested in? oh, yeah, a greenland, a vos territory, full of mineral level, talking about them a 2nd. i'm sure the international community would absolutely have a meltdown. i know so many, quite close to here, just up the road actually had a long running territorial dispute with a bunch of nancy's work here with these people just across the board. are you worried about it for 30 years? no one listen. finally at the crossover, coca cola was gone, ford was gone, everybody was gone. everyone walked out still winter. no,
