Humanitarian crisis in ethiopia, is worse than whats helping on the ground in ukraine. Despite most of the 8 of vailable flowing to india will storage its own way in the world and not get into external pressure. Throughout the countrys ambassador to russia tells r t in there always takes decisions on its own based on its own national interest, and keeping in mind whatever it feels is best for its own country people. And thats how we will continue with 8 and leaving here in the russian capital. Im unit oneill, and youre welcome to the global news drop on the us wants to see russias strategic exhaustion. Lots according to russias defense ministers, surrogate. Show a goose, who is speaking of the defense meeting of the shanghai organize cooperation. Organizational minister shall go. Also reiterated that russia is seeking to minimize casualties among civilians in the ukraine conflict. Lets have a listen. Border spears appearance is mr. Gregory is military operation. The ukraine, russia 40 follows the norms of humanitarian law. Strikes a carried out with precision weapons on Ukrainian Military infrastructure. Everything is being done to avoid civilian casualties. Of course, this slows down the pace of the offensive, but were doing this deliberately. So the ministry of ration is being conducted in accordance to the original plan all tossed as we complete it. The goal of the u. S. And its accomplices, is to bring about rushes, strategic exhaustion in order to eliminate its competition in ga political affairs. As want us to warn other states from pursuing independent foreign policies. While russia stresses its trying to minimize civilian casualties, a Shopping Center in done yet has been hit by shelling that the local officials are blaming on Ukrainian Forces. The billing was soon engulfed in flames. As our correspondence in the city roman crossroads takes us through. Boy were driving along with a de net skull Fire Department at a supermarket. That was us rock early in the morning here in jonas, fumes of smoke can be seen from every port of the city, apparently a Fire Department from all over thats out there on the scene at the moment. Fire fighters are still fighting at the blaze of this supermarket. You can see plumes of smoke are still everywhere. Now this says supermarkets or a mega market, as they call it here, Sells Everything from a food items to a medicine, to anything else that the locals might needa. I myself picks up human, its aaron aid from a this supermarket numerous times in order to deliver it. To places here and then as people republic where they needed. Now the choir fighters just asked me to move over to just a bit in case just to put us out of danger if you will. Now at the moment, local authorities are reporting that there were several strikes against this supermarket right now. It looks like its completely destroyed, asked for the situation around this area. Now there isnt as single military as structure here. So it looks like its so obvious that the target was a civilian infrastructure. The strike took place at 10 oclock in the morning. The supermarket was open at 8 oclock and i this place is very popular among the local residents. As you can see, the building is still a blaze, as i Fire Fighters are trying to put it out. Thats all it to be careful because the root can collapse at any time. Employees of the supermarket are now trying to salvage as much of merchandise as possible at the moment they can even speak so as they can even give us the account because theres still quite a lot to be done. Room on coffer, m r t, the peoples republic. Now the long awaited mission by the International AtomicEnergy Agency to these upper rosie a Nuclear Power plant could take place within days. According to the bodies director general, the facility now under Russian Military control has come under continued shelling in recent weeks with moscow blaming Ukrainian Forces for the bombardment. The plant is the largest Nuclear Power station in europe. The shelling has stopped fears of a nuclear catastrophe. With the potential experts say to be worse than the turn noble disaster, they states such an incident could affect many countries which neighbor ukraine and even reach as far as turkey. R t rushes. Alexei rappin is the 1st International Journalist to report from the sprawling territory. Good, yes. Have you brought the atom . Electra stan says the largest power plant in europe sup rosure is being shell daily by the cranium military. Recently. As a result of yet another attack, one civilian was killed on the spot and yet another was fatally wounded. Still, the station continues to operate with its reactors, generating energy, whos just not going. So clogged no is not softening. Were currently near one of the pumping stations up as approach a Nuclear Plant. Youll ukrainian shall landed here in late july. You can see the consequences of that shelly right now for yourself, but this station continues to work as the main equipment is located in the basement about old dominion acoya. By the way, around, continue to reach this crater within the vicinity of the cleaning facilities. Was created last saturday due to shelling by Ukrainian Forces. You can judge for yourself about the danger of such attacks. Literally a 150 meters from here is the plants, 5th power unit. And it is still working just around the corner. Not that, no, i mean its only for at the moment the radiation at the station as well as the surrounding areas is within norms. The showing that mostly auxilary equipment or hydrogen and oxygen facilities. Were trying to repair the damage as soon as possible, so that the Nuclear Plant will not have to halt its operations at gene though on that he 12345. You can lose cow when you look at this building and try to figure out how many shells landed here. But the Defense Ministry has accurate statistics on how many times Ukrainian Forces fired at this approach in Nuclear Plant screens to say, and it is ready to share that data with the global community, including with the i e a. But no one is in a hurry to come here yet, but at this approaching Nuclear Plant out of 6 power units, 3 or under scheduled repair to are working normally. And one is working at about 10 percent of its capacity to insure its own safety. With the cooling system here would be they sequoia but had shown that shattered glass walls damaged by shrapnel. This is the lesser evil that can happen as a result of artillery shelling of a Nuclear Power plant in russia. Even according to the most conservative estimates, in the event of a detonation of the nuclear reactor, a radioactive cloud could cover half of europe, what it would take at least a decade to eliminate all of the consequences flip digitally as a partial sky, as dispute the territory of this approach plant is really impressive. It takes at least an hour to just walk around the power units. But from the view of the satellite, a reconnaissance drone, the entire territory can be seen all at once. If russian heavy artillery was located here, that would have become Public Knowledge long ago, the photos would have been published all over the media. But that is not happening because there was no heavy russian weaponry here. Photography of public, our live with the west is deliberately concealing kiev shelling of this upper was. She applaud, making russia a scapegoat for quote, everything. Thats what moscows envoy to the un has said during a Security Council meeting. The plant was attacked again in recent days. Russias representative reiterated that moscow does not use the facility for any military purposes. Those who are new, i think us listen to start today. We again heard the old broken record, rushes to blame for everything. The real background of the events around this approach in a Nuclear Power plant is shamelessly hushed up obvious facts or hinder denied. All this is done with one single purpose to whitewash their key of commanders, no matter what they do. They have Carte Blanche for the most unreasonable actions in the knowledge that they can be justified by their patron. In any case, contrary to the false claims of the key of regime and his curators, russia does not deploy heavy weapons on the territory of the Nuclear Power plant and does not use the station for military purposes. The russian Defense Ministry is ready to provide the International AtomicEnergy Agency with High Resolution images which show that weapons, especially heavy ones, are not located on the territory of the plant. Ukraine is marking 31 years since its independence from the soviet union. President zalinski. Hells bond to any celebrations in kiev, though, seeing russia could use the day to attack the capital for more Security Policy analysts for the u. S. Defense department, michael maloof. Lee. The secret is the one posing a threat to russia as it violated its own independence policy. They have no reason to celebrate because they have not lived up to their own principles. Its, its pathetic what, how eternal events have occurred here their independence a day here they had a provision in its proclamation of independence. They were remain non aligned. They violated that severely. By wanting to join nato, and from there it threatened security of russia in bold nato to expand further. And its all because of ukraine that were in the mess that were in right now. It goes back to the overthrow of a democratically elected government. Back in what was a 2014, as a consequence, they have blown it there. Theyre no longer in charge of themselves. Frankly. Michael mo, live taken us through that. Now the humanitarian disaster unfolding in ethiopia is worse than in ukraine. That is the warning from the head of the World Health Organization whos criticized the lack of funds flowing into the country compared to what keith is receiving. I can tell you that the humanitarian crisis integrate is more than you create without an exaggeration. And i say it is many months ago may be the reason these, the color of the skin of the people into dry. I havent heard of been the last 5 few months or so on monday. Now even ahead of stay talking about it to like condition anywhere in the develop good, especially to gray is just one example of a global humanitarian crisis. We are here hearing from you in agencies as well as private groups that for this year alone, they need just under 50000000000. 00 to be able to provide for the more than 200000000. 00 Vulnerable People. Now, many of these people are in the middle east and are in africa, and where as the money that has been sent to ukraine has been forthcoming. What we are witnessing is an alarming short forward of many, an aide reaching the middle east and africa. Its, of course the question needs to be asked why the discrepancy and this is a question that is pinpointed and highlighted by martin with its of the United Nations. This is the biggest funding gap weve ever seen, mostly because the number of Vulnerable People who need support is increasing fast. Now, in the 1st 7 months of this year, the u. N. Was able to raise only a 3rd of the money that is needed. At the same time, the money that was needed for the ukraine has been plentiful. So if i could just break that down to gray beach, an inlaw than ethiopian, i cant. Theres been a civil war since november, 2020, and the figures point to 4500000 people who are in urgent need of emergency food. Of that number 3 quarters of a 1000000 will be starving within the next few weeks. The World Food Program has also reported that by october, this year it will have run out of food for people in ethiopia. If you move across to bangladesh, there you have your retention refugees. Now were talking here about a 1000000 displaced people who all need emergency assistance. They are fully reliant on that and any kind of decreased funding will affect shelter will affect nutrition, will affect sanitation with result that many of them im barking on dangerous boat journeys to try and reach a better. You check if you move across to somalia. Here, there has been a devastating drought and a fixed point to at least 1000000 people there who are internally displaced. And another 7000000 who are facing acute, sued security or insecurity. At the same time, you have 7675000 Syrian Refugees in a camp in jordan. Theyve been they since 2011 and that kemp is an urgent need of repairs. Theres no electricity. And theres an alarming humanitarian crisis unfolding there. By comparison, you look at the ukraine now they the initial pill went out by the United Nations for morning, 6000000000. 00. That was to assist ukrainian, refugees, both within the country and outside the country. Not only was that appeal mates, but even more money was raised. The 2nd appeal is also on track to being met. So of course, the question needs to be asked why the discrepancy . And this is the question that is answered by the you in agency spokesperson. The warn ukraine has illustrated very starkly how it is possible to rapidly and extensively mobilize support for refugees and respond to humanitarian needs. When political commitment is there, the situation nice way you have aid agencies like the you and hcr that are having to make it very difficult and distort and heartbreaking choices. The simple reality is that in the next few months, they will be large numbers of people who are helpless and who are in desperate need of humanitarian help. Who was simply not be receiving us we will continue to make decisions based on our own National Interests about the message from indias ambassador to russia who is speaking during a commemoration event in moscow marking 75 years of indian independence. Now, one such decision is think ties with russian. New delhi has already increased its Oil Purchases from moscow, which reached the record level in june than india said to further deepen relations with russia in the military sphere as well. With the 2 nations taking part in joint exercises later this month, the countrys envoy to moscow say theres plenty more room for cooperation in the future to india always takes decisions on its own based on the so national interest, obviously there is the new reality. There are, you know, there are many banks which are sanctioned, there are logistical issues. There are payment issues which have to be overcome. We have to find the way forward. There is tremendous school for increasing all trade in economy cooperation. Youve seen just in the last few months at a certain change in the direction of trade. We certainly buying lots more oil from russia and fertilizers also. But i think theres a greater demand from russia for minimal products. Consumer goods, Food Processing items, auto parts, a lot of areas which can get this thing, including of course, traditional items like but also mocking 75 years of india, russia, diplomatic relations. And im sure that this wonderful tradition we have will friendship and quote, christian will continue well into the future. Now despite an Energy Crisis taking holden, the poland president is calling for the dismantling of the nord stream to pipeline, which is built to supply gas from russia to europe with her take on developments. Heres our tea contributor rachel marston. Officials across the European Union have been pushing this unity rhetoric pretty hard lately. But as various Member States start eyeing tough times on the horizon with Energy Inflation and cost of living crises, that solidarity looks like its about to be tested. Some countries are on such a blind anti russian footing that theyre promoting scorched earth policies. The polish president is now saying that he wants to see that nord stream to gas pipeline dismantle, which would literally burn the energy bridge between russia and europe. These radical remarks come at a time when germany, which heavily subsidizes poland through the u is in d trouble. Sheep rushing gas powered by germany were power germany to the status of the economic industrial engine of the European Union. It was the use own sanctions and germanys total delusion that green energy could do all the heavy lifting without rushing gas that now in peril. This status. Meanwhile, belgian prime minister, alexander de crew, is warning of 5. 00 to 10. 00 difficult winters for europe, which is just astounding. Here we have the head of state of a european country whos talking like hes a mere observer. Why isnt he screaming to the rooftops about the need to plug the gas back in . And french officials now are coming to the realization that frances long neglected Nuclear Power plants and low water levels for reactor cooling. Mean that a return to a greater dependence on Nuclear Power may not be the panacea that they figured it would be. You might recall that hungry was the only e country to initially refuse to cut its own gas supply from russia. But now fears are reportedly emerging within the e u that bulgaria could be next to come to its senses. And a new in Term Government appointed by president room and rod of could exploit the opportunity ahead of the art her 2nd general election to re establish an Energy Lifeline with russia. This is all according to media reports. Now relative, by the way, is a former air force chief and mic fighter jet pilot, who apparently isnt prone to the need your for us, a phobia of his predecessor who was ousted in a jew nonprofit its vote. The sands could also be shifting in italy, where right wing italian prime ministerial, hopeful georgia, maloney slammed the eas Energy Policies on the campaign trail. Italy is not an easy cetacean, even the best efforts of our government have left us and difficult situation. Public debt out of control were in the heart of europe in skyrocketing Energy Prices that had bringing families in businesses to their knees. Energy prices are hitting record highs across europe this week, and governments are now in a race against time to save their own citizens and economies before they crumble under devastating costs. In a situation that you have to admit entirely of their own making. A one way ticket to russia. Thats what some latvians are demanding for anyone in the country who refuses to denounce russia. Amid the ukraine conflict, a petition on a popular lothian website called further repeat creation. The post author alleges people they say, who are more loyal to russia, ive not integrated into latrine society, on or off in, quote, to poor to return to rush of their own accord. Now, says luffy as president also said this week that russian speaking residents who dont support reagans view of the conflict, should be quote, isolated from society. Political analysts, john brick mall, spoke to r t about growing rissa phobic sentiment in baltic countries order the stage. And then of course, he came there he so for now the question is where that comes from dr. Vision after 45 to 45, with a intensive conflict between these people in the oceans. And of course, the prism country can ukraine use the vacation for lisa, lisa phobia because it is like choking that the value is causing the feeling about that values. We have the stage which is going to the skinny, made again, 16 out of the citizens, not under these you know what the think . But yeah, i mean thats just a questions by jews or something. I guess the Japanese Companies are suspending the withdrawal of their businesses from russia. Thats according to local media, which note that since july, not a single Japanese Company has ceased, operations are left russia. It also appears that Asian Countries are continuing to buy russian fossil fuels as data shows that rushes become the largest supplier of all to china for 3 months in a row. Moreover, despite the condemnation of russias offensive in ukraine, japan has become the 2nd largest importer of russian fossil fuels after china buying within 5000000000. 00 worth from moscow. Economist and political commentator i k hammer, believes Asian Countries are moving to secure their economies. Well, the agent takes the job to secure the Energy Supply because they expect the know without energy, you can not survive as an economy facing the job and by the russian fuel and the russian energy. So even in the so called way wants to have the oil afterwards back from the russian is not say its not c q or whether they will get us. So they are the west is really playing with, with the future by doing this sanction, or just because some president in the us told them not to. I mean, this is all ridiculous. And this take matters where we have to say we have to ask whether the politics, especially politicians in the works on primary, really acting in behalf of their population, or whether they are acting against the, the benefits of their own population. The asian people do it, they act in behalf in favor of the population. So thats why they are taking the johns and, and buying the fuel. Its not just the continent east western asia nations, theyre also increasing their business dealings with moscow. Turkey, in fact, have doubled its imports of russian oil this year. Wherever us officials have already warned turkish businesses against cooperation with moscow. Any individuals or entities providing Material Support to us designated persons are themselves at risk of us sanctions. Please be advised that relationships with sanctioned russian actors may expose turkish Financial Institutions and businesses to sanctions risk of staying on an energy theme. Saudi arabia has a nice the continuation of joint projects with around in the oil industry, despite the increasing pressure again from the u. S, according to the Iranian Offshore Oil company to run unreal. I expect to complete the development of the fund the, our oil field within 36 months. The background to not being us in iran, representatives casting mutual recommendations for the failure of the 16 month long talks to restart the really neutral. In addition, a number of our states are trying to normalize relations with iran, with you to diffusing tensions in the region. The united are a beverage salsa plans to reinstate it and foster to around for the 1st time in 6 years. We spoke with and really and geopolitical unless to things such a reproach. More of those regional countries worries, washington u. S. Government causes difficulties in this part of the day in gauging was because people engage in terrorism. They dont want to see a relation between iran and its neighbors. Is that the old policy of divide and conquer the only way the americans can dictate demand through the south region. Countries is bully and an advantage foreign policy. Both the same thing doing in europe as of russia and causing difficulties, a show you appreciation. And as the countries in this part of the world get to close to each other, then theres not going to be much demand for us intervention. And thats what the United States fears ah, lets turn the program to africa. Were on goal ends or voting to elect the countries president s, members of the national assembly, the ruling Peoples Movement for the liberation of on gola faces. Its most significant challenge from opposition parties for decades. The tie to president ial election race, but the country at a crossroads citizens choose between the ruling party and the countrys largest opposition. The one time Rebel Movement unique which has been funded an arm by the us and its allies will keep you updated as early results begin to emerge. There was another u. S. Official is in taiwan. Indian governor eric will come has be come, indiana, excuse me, governor has become the latest american politician to visit the island territory as tension sore between beijing and washington. Lets just go through the background to this because earlier this month youll recall us high speaker, nancy pelosi touched on anti, despite numerous red line warnings from china. The news sparked a furious response from beijing which launched days of life. Fire military exercises around the island, china considers the visits a breach of its sovereignty. Earlier, my Colleague Research she spoke with rushes and buster to china to give us his take on the so labeled hello see pilgrimage. The object to was here is to promote china, to dig a nice china to her china, and just to send a signal to china muster. Here the china has a reason to demonstrate presented military capability. Again, some background time. And again, a policy u. S. Is the fire around the taiwan and china. The us tries to stop that fire is using its a military. What is russias position . If there were a conflict between china and the United States, russia, sure, and china to approach to day one, china position today, one of ours i see is a situation from here, from way genes. China is a peaceful nation, and i dont believe that china really as some military class when you look at just the amount of military hardware that is being produced at a rapid pace in china right now. Some might say that beijing is preparing for something chinese or me nation chinese or be concrete. So thats why it is a right to put that in just alongside memory time route. Lets compare it to a number of american aircraft. Carriers are permanent, huge, just part of the city ocean. So who is really poses a threat to many people say that america and cannot survive without each other because that trade is so heavily relied between each other. Its almost like 2 siblings getting into an argument with that toys in the sand box. Why do you think the u. S. Takes this approach to china. Seems to those who are bleeding. Judson are not just to, to teach bucks to ignatius you course poses bridge really great and a tangible wraps to the region and globally, those countries are tightly connected and only financially technologically. And its really so need to learn to when i say to systems from crash than the fact hes a mutual interest in developing normal commercial for a relationship, a set aside, all that are really close are issues. Now ive never heard of Imperial Japan secret unit 7. 3. 1 now is the time to pop up, right . Our documentary death factories. Its gruesome, its fascinating, an equal measure as well. I think its going right ahead
