according to the russian foreign minister said a good love roth and an exclusive interview to our c. lovegrove underlines the moscow is not worried about the use desires occur, purchases of russian, oil and gas. and the discussion also touched upon the pany, the peace negotiations with ukraine, or rather the feasibility. a new process that we now understand that ukraine won't be able to put their demands into adequate woods, worthy of serious attention of serious people. ukraine is literally being restrained from taking constructive steps. the countries being forced to use foreign weapons in a more risky way and foreign specialists actually occupying jobs than maintaining those weapon systems, like high mas all this is not really a secret american and british counterparts with active support from germans. the poles and the baltic states really wants to turn this war into a real one and to direct a confrontation between russia and european states is advantageous for the u. s. and the u. k. sitting far away beyond the ocean, it is the european market that suffers most. i have no illusions and i

however, the gathering has also reaffirmed that moscow was not without friends. lovegrove has held several bilateral meetings, most significantly with china's one named indonesia, had hoped to keep the focus of its d. 20 presidency on post pandemic economic recovery. but the war in ukraine has overshadowed that goal.

this is the day mister lovegrove. hello. good morning. this is player, you just got back from a trip and you are going back on a trip benefit. while we are in this international isolation the in somehow you're never home. that's an interesting isolation. so thank you for finding the time between your trips to meet up with us that this is a big privilege for russia, today's boyton, you can re, i always give court all our resources. i hope that i will be able to ask all my questions and i will start with some things that our social media followers and our audience. i asked because we actually did a poll or you asked our subscribers, what they wanted to ask you. and the most popular question was the following. i will try to re you were dead when we redo when you can join us in order to claim hold talks, peace talks with ukraine or but if we don't, don't hold talks with ukraine. sometimes we say that it's impossible. sometimes we say that if necessary, and i'm saying we at different levels and my subscribers are interested to find out . and a

that said, he told certainly lovegrove the world expects moscow to honor its pledge to let grain shipment safely leave you. in ports or 10 ships are currently loaded with grain ready to depart from odessa. rover says sanctions on russia, party responsible for the global food crisis. he also says western arm suffice to ukraine or prolonging the war. while while that's her diplomacy goes on, there still, the quest of the grain ships ukraine's back see pulse. will john hendrick is a lie for assess from the port city of a desk. so firstly, what's the latest on the screen situation? well, period, saturday morning in odessa and the air raid sirens have just gone off and we are still waiting for those 10 1st shipments of grain to leave the ports here in the odessa area. now we know that everything is happened except that final green light villamor zalinski, the president of ukraine, has announced that they are ready to go. he did that on friday when he came here to odessa. and the problem seems to be that they just want to coordinate and ensure that those shipping lanes are clear. what happened

so gay, lovegrove. but then on the other hand, we have countries that have long standing positive relations with russia. countries like china, india, and indeed indonesia. so jakarta is in that position of trying to bridge the gap, but also trying to focus it's a g 20 presidency on the issues that are important to indonesia, namely host pandemic, economic recovery, and issues such as food security and the energy crisis in a statement. the indonesian foreign ministry noted that food, overcoming the food crisis, fertilize the shortage, rising global commodity prices, disruption to global supply chains. these must be priorities and the g 20 must work to find solutions to these problems, particularly in their, in relation to the impact on developing countries. indonesia has held a number of g, 20 events this year. but this is really the most high profile event of the g 20 calendar so far. and if it is able to be a successful, harmonious and productive summit is denisia is able to get all these ministers int

since russia invaded ukraine, lovegrove had planned to meet some of his counterparts on the sidelines of the summit. but many of them have refused including your effective state anthony blinking. or jessica washington has more now from bali, whence okay, love rock arrived. that was when you could sort of sense the tension in the room. and a few journalists shouted out at him, when will russia and the war? and that really points through that. the fact that the war and the ukraine really is the most salient issue, while g 20 foreign ministers meet this week. these important to note, however, that while us the us at its western allies, have taken the approach of trying to isolate russia, trying not to engage with russia. some ministers already saying that they would not shake his hand. for example, during the course of the conference. others saying that they would not pursue any bilateral talk that russia does still have friends within the g 20, who have met with the minister for these bilateral sessions. some of those countries we understand that we'll be meeting with the minister over

the countries presidents with the global food crisis being one of the key issues of both talks. lovegrove once again the stress that russia isn't seeking to create obstacles to exporting grain from ukrainian ports seas. maria phenomena has been following the foreign minister with his toward 9 full swing congos leader who has been ruling the country since 1979. and you all soviet and russian leaders since lonny braxton of greece said a gay lover of like he is a family member. the 2 sides discussed a wide range of issues including mutual efforts in libya's reconciliation process. congress president is preparing a huge conference there with representatives of all tribes and forces invited. russia supported the idea and also creation of a joint laboratory for this study and prevention of the spread of dangerous infectious diseases. russia stop to plummet, came to africa at a hard time to confirm that moscow and its partners in this region has tail on the same page, which is also through the shim lenders. we cooperate closely in the international arena, and we have practically identical positi

sir michael lovegrove is just saying that all those routes and lines of communication that we've taken aren't aware of and the general public, the way those links between our rivals have just deteriorated since the cold war. he suggests that during the cold war, we were closer in some ways, more in touch, but having better communication with china then we are now. he's talking here about a serious risk of accidentally getting ourselves into a nuclear war with china. what really struck me about this — we say it a lot but it bears repeating, the extent to which our policy towards china has changed over the last 10—15 years. i'm not that old, my political memory isn't that old, my political memory isn't that long, but i remember george osborne having points with his 0sborne having points with his chinese counterpart and talking all happily about a golden era of chinese relations. now we're talking about slipping into a nuclear war essentially because channels of communication have broken down. that's terrifying and shows the naivety of those mid 2000 politicians, notjust here but in ameri

and remember also that this foreign minister, mr. lovegrove, i've also made similar trips to the region even had a bit of a summit of sort with, with foreign ministers. and he was actually even expected, i think, these days in africa. so the russians are trying to get as much as possible to show that they are part of the sort of what's going on in the world. but also let's, let's remember that a lot of these things are happening in the region, such as those meetings between the arcs and the right hands, or between the cindy and the americans. and normal as fishes with no clothes. what happens if it weren't for the changing, international environment with europe, russia, china, and the united states, you know, just positioning for influence without addressing those means that we can understand what's happening, mcneese or something similar to you can't understand the heat waves without understanding climate change into this pose, if we look even to the union of a very old union, you might say of russian, turks and persians that were all sitting at the same table. historically been at odd

when russian soj lovegrove arrived at the t 20 foreign ministers meeting his hosting and each is written, omar sooty, greeted him warmly. members of the media would not as welcoming oh, this gathering monks the 1st time g 20 foreign ministers have met? since russia invaded ukraine. and the war has dominated the meeting lever of accused his western counterparts of russell phobia and said they are deliberately not looking for common ground on economic issues. no, it was not us to abandon all conference was the local states. oh, that's all the concert ukraine invited as a special guest by indonesia has accused russia of deliberately starving the world by disrupting supply chains. it says it's beautiful to talk about food and energy security without calling for accountability. it's just the regular mailing of the world with a starvation, the feminine a which is in hulu, which is cruel, and which is, which doesn't mean it, principles of humanity and in the principles of peaceful coexistence. however, the gathering has also reaffirmed that moscow was not without friends love. rob has held seve

just last month when there, that the for the minister off russia said lovegrove is to the anchor. he has been asked, he has been asked about that the so called the alice, leah good stolen ukrainian grain and he rejected that when ticket for the minister . mo shola was asked the same question. so he said that turkey has initiated the investigations, but so far there hasn't been any concrete evidence that the stolen grain is being taken to turkey and so been sold out to the world. however, he said that tricky will not let any illegal trade activities to, to go on on it's on. it's as soil so, so far did that. what we know is that the turkish official say that turkey is investigating the claims. and also the statement that came from the, that the ukraine, an ambassador, an uncut at that, that, that the ship has been detained by the turkish custom authorities or the inspectors . and the day that the faith of this ship will be determined by the, by this inspectors today. however, turkish officials have rescreened ourselves from making any bold statement regarding this ship. okay, so tha

well. president mo, 70 in uganda is a big fan of president putin and is, was very happy to host lovegrove. and of course, ethiopia is an important country in the horn of africa and houses the african union . so i think it was countries that had supported russia previously. it's also interesting where he didn't go, he didn't go to south africa, he didn't go to kenya, he didn't go to nigeria, so one congo everywhere. but i think he went to countries where he knew he would get a good reception. and how does, given the kind of attempts that you've just been rebuilding those kind of, you know, post cold war or building on those, those relationships, historical relationships with those kind of countries. where do you see rushes influence in this, in africa as compared to the west or china's, i think what we must recognize is not to over blow russia's influence too much. its total trade with the continent is less than $20000000000.00, which is probably 10 percent of what china trades with the continent. and of course the us and the countries and the u. k. have longstanding ties and very deep inr
