Big screen in september. The you are watching arty international. Im rachel ruble live in moscow. The group of 7 countries hasnt dropped a joint communicated aiming to bolster ukraines air defenses by cutting rushes Energy Revenues and confiscating its frozen assets. Over the past 10 years, western countries have imposed increasingly harsh sanctions on russia. But moscow still remains a top level supplier of gas oil and select minerals and mining operations. For example, in 2023 alone e u countries doubled in ports of Russian Nuclear feel compared to the year before our to contributor rachel marston, things deeper into the reality of europes ability to curve rushes, revenues of the g 7 foreign ministers, nothing copy italy, this week and was a big items on the agenda was dropped a level letter to their girlfriends, ukrainian president vladimir zalinski. The basically consisted of telling off the rest of the entire world outside of their the wow, that still has not abided by their demands to stop buying things from russia. We will continue to apply significant pressure on russian revenues from energy and other sectors. We call on all countries to reduce their imports from russia, which are supporting its war. We will continue to take steps to tighten compliance and enforcement of the oil price cap. We will respond to price capt Violations Including by imposing additional sanctions, measures on those engaged in deceptive practices while transporting, rushing oil. So theyre sticking it to put in by using their own citizens as blue dollars, basically sticking it to those citizens, right in their cost of living with no ones insight to high inflation as a result of energy being factored in, to the costs of everything in the supply chain and by sticking it to their citizens, they figure theyre sticking it to pretend. And now what theyre saying is that theyre going to crack down on the dirty, cheaters violating the price cap of 60. 00 a barrel for russian oil that they impose basically through peer pressure like in high school on there. The club of allied nations back in december 2022. So this is the same price cap that a bunch of countries have been conveniently lapse about by purchasing oil from 3rd countries like india. For example, oil that just may have had a russian identity before it immigrated to india, then mingled with other oil molecules there and then have the absolutely nerve to just come ashore and they, these western nations like for example, European Countries where citizens are supposed to be sticking its important by taking short showers, going on almost 3 years now. So all these g 7 countries signed onto this level letters as well and see what the same time lane would see under the table with russia, g 7 number japan, for example, hit a 7 year monthly record of russian liquefied natural gas imports just last december. And just last month, those in ports were up nearly 43 percent for december of 2020 to tokyo. As for Ministry Said earlier this week, the japan was staying the course on joint oil and gas projects with russia on stock to lean islands instead or credit cards which enter security b. E. You. Meanwhile, for all the noise they make about sanctions, violators and band and count violators, its not like they stopped importing gas from us, or they just replaced their russian pipeline gas. It works with russian l. N g, a 1000000000. 00 worth of russian architect liquefied natural gas into the every month to be exact. In 2023, the block was actually still importing 15 percent of its pipeline gas from russia. Well, thats down from 45 percent. That russian gas comprise of its imports before the conflict in ukraine. Its still my tongue as a bit of a shock to people who are actually listening to brussels. Brag about how they were sticking it to put in by depriving of Energy Revenues that they were still importing any pipeline gas at all. Now add to that the n g o Global Witness reporting last year that the you really just pivoted to importing russian liquefied natural gas and stuff. Pipeline gas with russian elegy imports into the you jumping 40 percent since the onset of the conflict, even more than in each of the previous 2 years. Yes, no one told french president a menu and my call back in march of 2022. Sounds like people using russian gas to heat their homes, their cooks and by gets in france, may as well be personally carpet bombing ukraine sort of policy. Finally, russia has already started to cut off gas supplies by closing the north stream. One pipeline of work. Thats a very clear message and they will use gas as a within the rules we will meet do without russian gas completely. They dont clean so fast forward to present day by the way, french elegy from russia is up 75 percent in the 1st few months of this year compared to a year ago. And remember a few months ago that michael said he expected a gary in Prime Minister victor or bon to act like you european, when it comes to ukraines interest and fall in line with the establishment agenda. Well, it turns out that its france and not hungry that was actually rushes top customer for elegy last february. Not sure whos been taking all the long, hot showers in france, but the country is paid 600000000 euros to russia for gas supply so far this year. As for germany, its the getting russian gas from its neighbors. Kind of like its your next door neighbor came over with a jerry can and house and took the gas of via cars tank while complaining what in the moral dirt bag, wherever he was, sites reading it out and the netherlands and belgium being the dirt bag dealers of rushing gas in this case. Anyway, its average germans, were paying for the price, the virtue signaling in any case, then theres something yourself we urgently need to ensure that germany has cheap energy again. And i wonder why other countries, for example, have no problem importing russian oil or gas. Germany does this to, by the way, but germany is currently doing it in a particularly stupid and expensive and environmental li, damaging way. We get the oil via india, and we get the gas, the liquid gas by a belgium. It would be more obvious to use the pipeline. Then it would be much cheaper. It really has announced that it will replace rushing gas with other countries gas like azerbaijan, for example, by 2025, which actually after by john, has been in 40 gas from russia itself since 2022. So it looks like europe will have to police mingling molecules again in that case the Russian Foreign minister seemed surprised. This is a lease announcement suggesting that he believes in ports of actually been heading in the opposite direction from his rhetoric to solicit share. So need, they probably claim they got rid of the russian gas, but in fact, exports had been growing to many countries, including france and italy. Italy recently had to lead reported to ensure a safe plan to reduce the share of russian gas and their consumption from 90 percent to 0. Within 3 years german chancellor sholtes did the same but presenting it as a victory to his voters. So saying, germany has dramatically reduced the dependence on Russian Energy resources and will soon be completely independent. What nobody mentions the price theyre paying for this space is russian elegy, imports also reached a record high in april of 2023. And it happens to send out its supply for re export to italy and france. So it really does look like its the g 7 is out. And then as they say about policing breaches of the Russian Energy bands, it really doesnt look like it will cost very much for them to travel to investigate. They can pretty much just stay home, open up the tomato and have a good book. The International Monetary fund warns that confiscating frozen reserves could these stabilize the entire Global Financial system to prevent this risk director of the i am, if youre a pen department, offered camera, emphasize the need for strong legal justification before any action on seizing rushes and mobilized reserves. Is taken chad has demanded the us leave it to air base in the country. Thats according to a letter sent by the nations air force chief ortiz and all of the u. K. As more this is the latest in the series. Soft stalemate, sophia goes and even outside defeats that have come to who into americas cool. Um, so cold the global war on terror on the african continent of what we have seen is a copy of one of the lead to the, sent to the French Embassy in tad to circulating on x. Outlining how to of a stop. It just means demands that you is to provide the rich an agreement in justification that to you is forces that should be on the edge. You could say it based in the mean not just air force has ask them every can to provide the documents or but thats what agreements just to find the presence at a g co say advice in response to 2 agreements screwing on Logistical Support and the personnel between the alex, who states, but shots as voice did not receive justifications or the presence just as the force of the us defense at the sheer to immediately stop the activities at the g cause a base. This development is key considering that so this is the, the 2nd time sheets. The reason to keep america out. In lots of this year, the United States was forced to stop it submitted c operation of a new z. Last, i need to go see the, the american presence of the temperature of the republic of news here is a legal violates all the constitutional and democratic rules which would require the silver and people, notably, so its elected officials to be consulted on the installation of a for an army and thats territory, a government of new year taking into account the aspirations and interest of its people besides was full responsibility to denounce was immediate. The fact the agreements relating to the status of military personal, the United States. And similarly, an employees of the American Department of defense in the territory of the republic of news here that the spokes person, the staging back to the agreement is not only profoundly im fish and it is. But it does not lead to the aspirations and interest of the needs erie and people because of the sleep. It forces me to pay both related to tax is an American Military aircraft, which must be paid regularly and which costs museum and 6th periods. Bailey is of ca, frowns, but then the competence of new saving, im sorry to have no information on military activities carried out from american bases in the z. And im a wave of the civilian and military personnel, as well as the American Equipment deployed on these areas. So its been clear for quite some time now thats easy. It does not want a permanent Foreign Military presence on, on its territory. Even though the u. S. Had just agreed to eventually withdrawal. Right now, it had been hanging on to its last best to contact here. Was outposts in western africa for quite some time, well, continuously blaming russia for its detailed race in, in africa. The Russian Federation of narrative drowned out the Us Government in the past years. They were excel and the Russian Federation stoked a lot of the instability across. Thisll help, they did this through misinformation, this information campaigns. So i see how we will double down and our efforts is through our own information campaign, but matched with our assurance efforts. The Russian Federation is really trying to take over the Central Africa as well as the ssl within africa. The Russian Federation wants to establish a ground game that resembles a start ups, a partnership program, but it doesnt have the values. It doesnt have the values of Democratic Values of, of what we bring sides. I just the intrinsic values for stability, security and security, security and prosperity with our african partners. The pentagon has been criticized even for abandoning its soldiers in new z. Would many people, austin, how does a group of american soldiers, who the Defense Department officials insisted were in the country simply to trade, to advise and to assist me is, is minutes for each sudden he gets sent to search a total of his can, but a match the risk of missing, then they had it missing the plan to carry out or that the missing. And why would the american equipped with the heavy we approve that and we looked bullet proof vehicles in and talked to territories in the z. Its exactly that incident. Thats been re ignited a longstanding argument over the spaulding, and often opaque will forward to by american troops around the world. Even then, members of the congress from both part you said they knew little about the American Military presence in the z, the bite and administration and the state departments are engaged in a massive cover up. They are hiding the true conditions on the ground of Us Diplomatic relations and knowledge under effectively abandoning our troops in that country with no help in sight. I didnt know there was 1000 troops in nyja. This is an endless will without boundaries, no limitation on time or geography. We dont know exactly where, where in the world militarily and what were doing. The u. S. Knows that the war on terror is a big failure in africa fall from reducing the violence that it always makes noise about. In fact, the results of you is, assistance in Africa Speaks for themselves. And a recent report in the indicated, not so long ago, the volume is on the african continent. Its far worse then when the u. S. Military came in to help the african continent to revealing that dates from um, terrorism in africa have skyrocketed to more than 100000 pacific during the u as well in terra. And at this point, the u. S. May get salvage something in tad, but if it exists that lots mississippi really be a tragedy for chad, the same way its exist is not a tragedy for new z. Now to the middle east where theres been a powerful explosion at a military installation, south of the iraqi capital cal, so military base around the 50050 kilometers and south of baghdad was reported they had in an air strike Digital Media as well as security personnel reported one person was killed and 6 others wounded.
