with the family i'm to consider, so only goes from marston. it was on the home, they call you beast for me like that. it also tom cook with the unicorn without us because she she knew me yet. oh, the russian speaking, se ukraine refused to accept the cruise outcome. people took to the streets of ukraine's largest cities. that had been protests in krakow odessa. mario pope, and zap our osha mass protest broke out in the crimean autonomous republic and overwhelming majority of crimean citizens voted as a referendum to break away from ukraine. i did march 2014 crimea rejoined russia or chester scrimmage is.

we have rachel marston, she is a syndicated columnist and archie contributor, and in london we crossed marco gassett. he is an international affairs commentator har, across our girls. in fact, that means you can jump in any time you want. and i always appreciate, john, let me go to you 1st out of the corner of my on the plaza way. i can see you nodding your head after every single word i said in my interject, and i'll let you take it from here. go right ahead. well, you said in your introduction that europe has a death wish and you were implied that all these different policies are incomprehensible. you know, how could they possibly be wanting to commit suicide? well, i certainly agree that europe is committing suicide, that the european leaders are, are killing off european culture, european economy, and some boxes. it's not me, it's not irrational. i mean, i think it's irrational, but it's not, it's not by incompetence on the country. it is part of the program, the.

parliament early stated that hungry can be considered a full democracy. party contributes. rachel marston takes us through the details. european leaders haven't stopped talking about how much they want ukraine in the u . and how keith is virtually the embodiment of european values. just this week. you commission president ursula vander line said during his swing through, keep that quote, the essential process is well on track. it's impressive to see the speed, the determination, the preciseness with which you are progressing. she also said that ukraine needs quote more business, more income through the you were talking here about the country recently considered to be the 2nd most corrupt in europe and rank 122nd out of a 180 countries on transparency internationals, corruption index on par with zambia, galvan and mexico. now compare that posture with the e parliament's motion approved this week in a 433 to 123 vote. adopting a report concluding that hungary has become a quote electoral autocracy, meaning that european values and democracy were under systemic threat in that country. we dee

stays here in russia and there will be no one to change anything, think i was going thought miss marston tomorrow mika, you intend to keep taking to the streets, to protest against boot and more, even if he and fellow demonstrators to face up to 15 years in prison for doing so. the war against ukraine has also become an economic one, primarily between russia on the one side and the west on the other. russia has stopped or at least very severely restricted gas deliveries to europe, and the e u has announced it will block most russian oil imports by the end of 2022. but just off the coast of grease, canker owners appear to be shipping higher volumes of russian oil than before. the war began its daybreak calling the coast of the peloponnesian peninsula. so doris sean jose yeah knows, is out with his reporters, united colleagues and network of investigative journalists. they're heading to the laconia and gulf to document ship to ship or asked. he has transfers of russian oil out in international water. so we as it about as united, a lot of being a drug of is that isn't about as the s, which

a from top financial newspaper, the new k, and with all the details, his art contributor, rachel marston. if european union countries are still importing russian energy on the down low, are they still sticking it to russian president vladimir putin like they're leading their own people to believe they're doing. european leaders haven't stopped telling their citizens that the stratosphere act, energy prices and inflation are all sacrifices being made for ukraine, which is purportedly fighting for european values. but apparently, one of those european values is to betray the very same principles that your val declaiming to defend. it turns out that the decay group has been tracking oil tankers off the coast of europe since the beginning of the ukraine conflict. and what they found will no doubt come as a shock to those who think that if europeans are suffering under crushing bills, it's only because of an uncompromising refusal to touch any of that dirty russian fossil fuel. and the k analysis found that in the 6 months since russia's invasion of ukraine begun, $41.00 vessels might ship to

many thanks for those days. alsace, auntie contributes a rachel marston speaking to his life from paris. a major western publisher that owns the news outlets politico and business insider has called for a ban on the chinese on social media platform, tick tock, citing a need to secure the privacy of uses. tick tock should be banned in every democracy . we have at the moment, and now you've talked with dealing with china, we hand over personal data to the chinese government. it is of course a tool of espionage, usually words like democracy and ban. don't walk hand in hand. democracy is about the free exchange of ideas, a market place of interpretations where the people get to make up their own decision, but not when countries like china come into the picture and similar to how r t has been banned across europe for daring to challenge the nato interpretation of events in ukraine either follow the globalist line or you must be silence. that's the way a lot of western voices are talking these days. notice that no one's calling for a ban on instagram or facebook or google, despite their well

that's got some thought and opinion now with our to contribute rachel marston. in the interest of fighting climate change, the dutch city of harlem, has voted to ban all meat advertising beginning in 2024. i'm surprisingly, this is music to the ears of green activists to want to dictate how everyone lives their daily lives. whilst any environmental benefits cannot be expected immediately from an advertising man, it sends out a clear message to the food industry that harlem wants the industry to invest in more climate friendly food. we also hope that other cities in the netherlands will follow the example of harlem and introduce similar ban. what exactly is quote, climate friendly food, please tell me that it's not a euphemism for eating bugs because that's being pushed pretty hard in the western mainstream media. but if benefits, quote can't be expected immediately for this policy and it's mainly just symbolic virtue signaling. then why bother at all with it, particularly in the netherlands, which is europe's biggest ne provider. and we're an estimated 95 percen

his art contributor rachel marston. well, the european union told russia that it could take its cheap gas and shove it believing that the move would derail moscow's ability to pursue its interests in ukraine. brussels celebrated its breakup with moscow boasting that it was going to seek out other relationships all while fully expecting to be able to carry on discreetly importing russian gas on the down low a kind of friends with benefits situation. i guess despite the break up, if only because it realised that it was tougher to replace than it had initially anticipated that gas, which is why there's been ongoing drama over the impact on the european economy of any prolonged maintenance shut downs of the nord stream. one pipeline operated by gas from that as long transported rush and gas into europe and initial shut down of the line. earlier this summer was related to german turbines, repaired and stuck in canada. the west's own anti russian sanctions block their return now flows have since been reduced and were halted f

heads of us. shell companies say they're in no hurry to increase exports to contribute to rachel marston, hospital. the e. you appears to be keen on fighting russia down to the last ukranian and also down to the last hero of its own citizens. europeans who may have thought that they could count on their government to soften the blow of the clammy energy prices and inflation are starting to realize that the elite are more interested in solidarity with ukraine than with them. the most recent hint came this week from french economy minister between are the men who suggested that not all local authorities in france could end up with the help from the french government to keep services running amid the energy crunch. you have well managed communities and others the to less well manage when i see communities that have hired massively and then come to appeal to the state because they can't pay the energy bills to pay in place of the communities that compose a difficulty. so i guess french citizens who have the misfortune of living in a community run by bad local politicians, are going to be pun

the reopening of the pipeline, i think, contributes to rachel marston brings us more these house, apparently asking west chairs to jump through ridiculous hoops like showering together, or with just a splash of water ban. take that putin isn't quite getting the job done via the machine. we are experiencing a severe energy crisis triggered by the loss of energy production. russia has stopped delivering around 55000000000 cubic meters of gas, the amount that came via nor trim. one new gas now has to be procured on the world market. in france, more than half of the nuclear power plants have failed, causing major problems to the grid, which has also driven up prices. the 2 issues have triggered an external shock that has hit the country hard on both german consumers and companies. havoc is singing a much more panicky tune than he was at the beginning of september when he tried to downplay concerns of catastrophic economic failure by explaining her some kind of magic math. how german companies could avoid insolvency by just stopping production . like if you just play dead and don't move, you'll s

at government policies while protesting against continuing arm supplies to ukraine. ortiz, rachel marston has more winter is fast approaching, and as energy prices continue to increase across europe. so do the protest from the czech republic were tens of thousands took to the streets, calling for an end to nato membership to germany, where activists tried to block the entrance of a weapons plant and protested their governments lethal support for ukraine. the latest demonstrations are fueling predictions, the soaring civil unrest will become the new normal as inflation and energy costs continue to run rampant. ah, who's the estimated 70000 protesters and proc took it a step further calling for their government to put the check for public 1st and to stop blindly pledging their membership to the un nato. when they argue it's not in the best interest of the people in their country. in the past, the czech republic has relied on russia for nearly all of its natural gas supplies . but now that it's falling in the footsteps of its neighbors by turning its back on moscow's resources, energy prices

let's get some thoughts and opinion with arctic contributor rachel marston as expected the reaction of western leaders to the idea of a referendum in the russian held ukrainian territories has been nothing short of hysterical. usm vassar, ukraine, bridget frank, even referred to quote sham, referenda and mobilization as signs of russian weakness and failure. and here's what some other western officials had to say. now he limit, no, russia must hear that they cannot impose wishes through military means even through so called referendums in shall territories which had now occupied members of the security council should say this loud and clear. a members of this assembly should support us in this path. for peace, the you strongly condemns the illegal referenda in lieu hans pearson and don't, etc, which are in violation of ukraine's independence sovereignty and territorial integrity and blatant breach of international law. results of such actions will be nolan void . sham referendums have no legitimacy and do not change the nature of russia's war of aggression against ukraine. the internat

he says that the ear proposals are pure when a political arctic contributor rachel marston has the story. our intention 1st and foremost is to bring prices down, a cap on only russian gas is purely political. i don't see the added value in that . we will not agree to this european union. energy ministers are meeting today in prague where $70000.00 or so protesters came out against european energy sanctions and rising cost. just a few days ago. all focus is on the blocks, energy price and supply problem. earlier this week, european commission, president ursula vander line, laid on a plan for the block to make it through the winter, and now that it sanctioned so much of its own energy supply that its reeking far more havoc on the e. u, than on russia. van der line called for a price cap on russian pipeline gas to quote, cut rushes revenues. thinking that it would prevent russia from pursuing its objectives in the ukraine conflict, which should blow up in the use face about as well as it's other virtue, signaling and manipulation attempts have if it ever decides to implement that price cap.

within the narrow confines of what they allow the little people to do or have i contribute a ritual. marston, thank you to africa. now a security crisis in the south hell, a region is apparently threatening to turn into a global problem. the un secretary general antonio quotas warning the way the situation is handled, needs a new approach. if nothing is done, the effects of terrorism violent extremism in organized crime will be felt far beyond the region in the african continent. a co ordinated international breakthrough is urgently needed. we must rethink our collective approach and show creativity going beyond existing efforts. now the instability in the region is pretty shaky at best the, despite an ongoing anti insulted operation led by the french military against islamic groups. the instability has led to a large amount of the population becoming frustrated by that of hearing situation with security. now we heard from a member of em, $62.00 it's, it's a movement responsible for, for recent protests, denisia, who believe the presence of the french army in the country is illegal and is no

trouble to the you facing a more expensive and difficult application process also contributed rachel marston has more. remember that line from george orwell. dystopian novel animal farm, that all animals are created equal, but some animals are more equal than others. well, the european union seems to have ripped a page from orwell, with its new visa policy for russian citizens, which has just been officially published. so under the new rules, russians will have to pay more for a visa to visit e. u. 80 euro's instead of 35 processing could take up to 45 days as opposed to the current 10 to 15. and multiple entry visas will be tougher to get. the e has also said that it could ask for more documents from applicants. the question is, what kind of added information could they request? and this is where they risk betraying their own stated principles. because apparently the e considers that some russians are indeed more equal than others. but who exactly the e u will remain open to certain categories of russian visa applicants traveling for essential purposes, including notably family members of y
