they went from defending western europe to defending more of europe than they went into the balkans offensively. now to type back, you know, the middle east and china and so this organization is actually an u. s. participation and i think is actually running out counter to us interests. and because of his, of bureaucratic out no running to my really is go back to brussels. we're piri menu . well, i, me, ivan, just put it perfectly. i me do a reverse nixon goes to china here. i mean, as an edge in looking at it geopolitically and historically, in europe, the european union wanted to position itself in a valuable place. it would be to in be in the middle of russia, the united states and china that, that, that has, that has assets that has capital to it. and it seems to me, they're hostile attitude towards russia. negates that they've just taken themselves off the chessboard. what do you think? go ahead in brussels. yes, exactly. then if you lose the geography of your rock, of course, or the idea positioning of the european project, it will be in better balance between do you atlantic a neural asi

so russia just wants to be a good partner to europe, provide constant cheap and stable, natural gas and markets. the amazing thing is, i've been, i've been following the russian energy market for 2 years. i mean a long, long time. and one thing that they've always dressed in gas from is always said, because that's the monopoly export of russia, is that they want long term contracts. they want to stay away from this speculation . and that's what it all is exactly what patrick was saying, my dear, this is a for some people, a one person's crisis is a small group about, well the people's opportunity here. and again, the incompetence of it. ok when, when we have the, the height of the lock down in the west. ok. consumption went down. and then you know, they, they develop the storage units. and then when they lock down, starting to come to an end, there was a surgeon in demand. and while they are doing that same time, they should have been refilling the storage units, but they weren't. ok, i mean just incompetent. i mean, i don't even work in that industry and i know that go ahead mark. firs

string to pipeline with natural gas and to waste the green light from regulators to stop supplying europe that i think you commissioner, wounds and shoot over to his were on the continent, is on the rise. america told envoy top got his tongue resigned that comes as the inspection general plans to launch multiple investigations into a marcus chaos military pull out at the station over to plumb matic operations. i tortured and jailed for 17 years without trial. august 20 national still languishes in guantanamo bay despite being cleared for release. after it's a mash had been mistaken for terrorists. they had lines joined. my colleagues were so shy the top of the hour with more news for you. ok, next on i'll say international as the cross dog and for all you can use and the renegade incorporated with with hello and welcome to cross talk. we're all things considered. i'm peter lavelle. there are growing indications that washington isn't finished with afghanistan just yet. military involvement has come to an end, not engagement. also, we were told there is an energy crisis. maybe this is part

any of them with european leaders confirm that russia is not withholding natural gas applies to europe. but media outlets keep up the narrative that moscow deliberately pushing up the price for.

and in europe, what's going on in europe? boyland hungry, a christian game that for, for not in the wine. and when the british prime minister made a speech and the european parliament a few days ago, presenting his arguments, they were all refuted by from germany who just bought you said what you said makes you happy. you know, then yeah, give us just what you said makes you happy. that means you should stop it spoken to me. so unfortunately we're going down the road. there are threats, you know, was i just how or climate change? you know, if you can just drop it off, there are people who are demonized like goldstein in the oils, nor will put you in the, in the western media know what she g p, maybe tomorrow. right. so unfortunately, we have the same, same narratives repeated themselves and i don't know where it will lead us. i can only hope. ringback that it won't lead us to the same will last us that we manage to endure during their world war 2 and during their experiments. but it talks more and more like the fact of millio

this is a direct result of government policies, specific policy decisions made by the governments of europe made by great britain made by the united states and other g 7 countries included. ok. so there are there the willingness to go along with this green new deal, or ideologically mainly, ideologically driven direct. and we saw the results of it last winter in germany when the wind turbines froze. when there was no solar power, when they couldn't meet their, they slowed demand. what did they do? they fired up the same thing in texas. yes, they fired up the coal plants. so now what do you see? you see a coals. ready coming back now they have to do this again. what's happened to the price of coal? it's searched. what does that mean? they need to buy carbon credits or a carbon offsets to the carbon markets or booming because of a restriction in supply to the energy market. so what's the result of this? a fossil fuels becoming expensive? this price has been passed on to consumers. ok, but a lot, but what's really cause this did this started during the enron revolution. the total deregulation

manipulating the natural gas market just days after flood, even put in pledge to boost supplies to europe.

just days after the legend person pledge to boost supplies to europe, dozens of people are reportedly killed in an apparent assigned form a time on a share mosque in northern afghanistan. it comes just 5 days after another time, but also targeted at most and the european parliament classes and no binding resolution seeking to foreign police use a facial recognition software and public places with and the piece hailing it as a major retreat. our gas base b.

just days after the legitimate present pleasure to be supplied to europe. dozens of people are reportedly killed in a parent 1st signed by time on a sham mosque in northern afghanistan, it comes just 5 days after another time that also targeted and most and the european parliament passes unknown binding resolution seeking to bomb police fees of the facial recognition software and public places with any of these painting it as a major victory. as of the headlines for you, they saw up next aids constant with with hello and welcome to cross stock or all things are considered. i'm peter lavelle. the bible ministrations decision to leave afghanistan was correct and long overdue, however, the way americans longest war ended is a different question. it was a botched affair. the generals will most likely never be held to account, put alone marine, lieutenant colonel does face court martial. is this justice ah cross sucking military accountability. i'm joined by my guess, indian b benjamin in washington. she's an author, as well as co founder of code, pink and charlottesville. we have david swanso

and it could double the flow of russian natural gas to europe. however, it has not been certified yet, even though it's technically complete, that process has begun at the beginning of september, but it could take up months or even more than that. first, it's the german energy regulator that needs to give the project the green light and then a draft is passed on to the european commission. and we've already heard from one of the major players on the market that because of this bureaucracy, it could be that north stream to may not help european consumers this season. the certification of the pipeline, as far as i know will be so light, it will probably not be able to help was out this winter. now all what it comes to gas from the russian energy giant has been increasing exports. and we can name loads of the european countries from romania to greece, finland, italy at the exports are growing even though previously it was gas from that was being accused of this surge and gas prices. but the, the russian companies saying, just give us the certificati

and it's a very similar message that we've seen across the media in europe. if we go over to the netherlands, similar headlines that we're seeing there also over german publications here, going with very, very similar message in belgium. what we're hearing is that russia has the chance to make or has the possibility to make europe shiver this winter while in austria, they're suggesting that russia is using gas in order to put pressure on europe. what's really interesting though, is what we're seeing in the media is a very different message to what's coming out from your opinion. leaders in the commissioner for, for energy. that's country simpson. she said, just at the beginning of this month, that while there was no additional gas coming from russian supply is to meet the increased demand from europe that bo same russian suppliers were meeting the very letter of all of the contracts that they signed with european countries. and it's a similar message that we've heard from german chancellor angle, a miracle, as well as the gift kind to my knowledge. there are

europe gets new opportunities and a new world or europe is love any longer, completely dependent to the united states. so to america, europe, america are playing dia, politics, to preserve their global leadership rule as the only superpower and they don't care about consumer prices and energy security. in europe, they care on their part. and since the whole others, pro american politicians fear of a whole industry of turns, this is very powerful. so what we have there is no rational reason there is no, there is no rational reason because of russia b. no, because on ecology inches. but the reason behind is angie rushing rave is g in politics made a deep statement. washington d. c rushes. sputnik. the covert vaccine is close to being approved by the world health organization. a spokesperson for the w. h. o. made that announcement on friday. but getting sputnik certificates recognized internationally is proving to be an uphill struggle. in germany, a lawmaker from the left party is filing a lawsuit after local authorities feel to accept his sputnik the certificate heater . dim says it

police in washington dc reopen. roads are for bomb scare, sort 3 government buildings evacuated in europe. gas prices fall off to blotting of food and tells russia any other on gas brought to wrap it up. supplies also coming up this our freedom or a possible 175 year prison sentence. during massage his fate rests in the hands of the u. k. i court has an appeal hearing on a us sec, solution request underway and and the you orders, poland took off up a 1000000 euros every single day until it abandons a controversial reform to his school system. has prompted warsaw who accused brussels on blackmail. ah oh blood from moscow, thanks for joining us on our to international tonight to wherever you are. welcome through the program. now where we start with gas prices in europe for which is in the grip roll of an energy crisis, gas price is half started, full at the market reacted off the router you put in, sold the chief all russian gas shot and gas from to rush it up gas volumes in european storage facilities. so she and push the double got my ask you that once you have finished pumping gas into u

, harming people in europe can get the fertilizer. the need double side is that the surely should come together. well, up the sanctions, the sanction against russia on it there are they weren't nodded. and so i'm agreeing with your point of view. we tried chrome and funny. oh, well, thanks for coming and shipping and giving us your thoughts on this very serious story though that be said, we appreciate it have a good day unless a snapshot of what we're talking about this how you'll find so much more on a social media, we can get involved to the conversation of your say as well or r t dot com as somebody stories, a great feature pieces, pictures to our next programs showing in your part of the world for the spray kids know 28 minutes past the hour for me, kevin. oh and reporting for moscow in the table and judy with me. we wish you a great day. ah. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy even foundation, let it be in arms. race is on often very dramatic development. only personally and getting to resist.

and i hope that at least europe in media will, will inform the people about it. or during the energy crisis and the high cost of fuel, some motorists have even started traveling abroad in search of cheaper prices. germans, for example, i've been having to poland to fill up with moral, not his all europe correspondent, pacer oliver. the cost of living in germany is on the rise. it's clear when you go to the supermarket and see the prices a fruit vege. it's even clearer when you go on to the full course of paint chill stations. and what we're seeing really is the unstoppable force of rising fuel. prices colliding with the immovable object. that is german reliance on the ultimate bill. it's prompted. some german motorists to cross national boundaries like coming here to poland in order to try and find a cheaper alternative to filling up. driving across the border, just refuel is particularly worthwhile. if the price difference is a high and the distances are very short, germany has some of the highest fuel prices in the european union. and to break down this whole s

the main question i ask my polish colleague, what future do you see in europe? are you part of this glove? you can be part of the glove and at the same time say the rules that apply to everybody. do not apply to you anymore. what's going on here is regularly that european institutions circumvent the rights of the national parliament and government and modify on the treaty without having any legitimate her or sorority tool to luisel. sol solved the polish all right, common sense on one side and fantasy on the other one and the utopian front as accuse us that's been the problem with energy prices as well. now we understand that they won't be any official mention all that debate over poland from the european council, but unofficially we know that the council president shaw. michelle says that he believes the primacy of you law is fundamental. so this is an issue that will continue to tear away at you member states. the other big discussion that was on the table on thursday was energy and how the european union is going to deal with this looming energy crisis as we

and the talks which also tackled europe's energy crisis, have at times been explosive. as charlotte do been to the ripples over you counseling meeting, as you said in brussels, going back to the drawing board over many of the troubles and issues that face the block. not just in the immediate future, but possibly over the next few years. and probably 1st port of call is that issue with poland in this crisis over the room of rule. this idea of whether a country's constitution is something that takes precedence over nur itself. no. earlier this week, the polish prime minister spoke to any peas at the european parliament trying to put forward his point of view on this particular subject. but before he spoke, the commission president ursula vaughan delay. it was pretty fiery, saying that what poland was doing was essentially rocking a rocketing the bed rock all the european union. we cannot and we will not allow our common values to be put at risk. the commission will act and the options are all known. first option on fingerprints, where we legally challenge the judgment of

worse before it gets better. european gas prices fall off to russia, but i just to brief supplies to europe on the eve, fails to protect it, citizens and businesses through soaring energy bills and supporters of jewelry in the found including rock legend, roger waters demand justice following us extradition appeal hearing, which is yet to deliver his further. i'm so angry and i'm so and i'm show dish catch do with the united kingdom. and the key figure from the capitol hill, riots is quietly removed from the f. b i's most wanted list one wanting plenty of questions about the mystery met. ah, hello there, the latest developments, the look back of what's been happening over the last 7 days. you're watching weekly here, a naughty international. now you k, paramedics, have raised phase of an unprecedented crisis facing the ambulance service, with one local department, even pleading with the public to think twice before calling that there is simply not enough people to cover the work collect south central ambulance service is declared a critical incident t 2 extreme pressure across our services

energy crisis. coven, and a possible agreement for a global corporate tax or europe correspond. peter oliver has been following developments in rome. whether its being progress or whether this has been a token shop, depends on who you speak to. if you talk to those demonstrators who are on the streets of the italian capital on saturday afternoon into the the evening, they would say that more definitive action needs to be taken on climate change, as opposed to the talking that's been done about tackling that particular problem. you speak to the leaders themselves, so i think they're pretty happy with what has been achieved at this g 20. they're all gathered for a, a big photo op at the trevi fountain earlier on sunday, throwing coins over their shoulder into that famous landmark, hoping that that brings some look to one particular area in which they have made of as few steps forward. and that is on a, a global minimum level of corporation tax. now this was an initiative that was put forward by the united states am if you listen to those who are giving the full backing to the u. s

it is a disgrace for europe that the trauma lists and found off. we can leaks. julianna's sauce has been locked up. we need to be absolutely clear. his crime is telling the truth, a different society julianna's song would now be hailed by every aspect to the british media for being a hero. the u. k. government's conduct in relation to sancha has revealed such gross hypocrisy, or when it comes to any professed commitment t human rights. so if the british judges decide either to expedite the sans to the us or to keep him in the british, went on a mob. they will basically condemn him to death is about p poop power versus state power. you can go to the united states and you will find plenty of them for criminals who have never been put on trial. you're criminals, and we're going to pursue you to the end of the earth and back for the crimes. you're committing all over the world against humanity, while also murdering slowly drilling assange and other whistleblowers, while the bell marsh tribunal, named after the jail, where a sanchez being held, had no l

and unfortunately, they are only present in our societies in central europe. i went through the statistics, austria and germany, and it's the same. 75 percent of all women have been sexual. harris about 30 percent have been experiencing sexual violent and 14 percent and both can well really give if you, if you go deep. of course, there is some reasons in society, and most of the cases are even not reported because most of the cases happen inside of the family. and then the women don't dare are shamed to have a confrontation with trenches. so we have a general problem and we have to tackle this problem. i think it has to be tech with many steps. for example, that has to be better prevention. they have to be the steps of education in school, but off grownups as well. they have to be steps of tara p and head for the traumatized as well. they have to be steps on this raising and step of consciousness building in our society. and i think punishment is one way, but punishment alone doesn't test. so we have to have a more holistic attempt and we really have to preven

now at since then, we had accusations from goverlan start just germany, but also across europe, accusing the russian government of being behind that poisoning. however, russian medical officials and officials at the hospital where he was treated in russia, say that ad there was no trace of the poison when he was being treated that he did return to russia and as a result of breaching his rail conditions, he was sent to serve out time in prison and that's where he is currently as recipient of this top a human rights award from the european union parliament ball. charlotte, you mentioned that there are just a, just the beginning of your talk there, that there's been some concern about the prize being politicized. can you tell us a little bit more about that? yes, that's right. some any piece themselves hates out at this award, saying it's being used as a political weapon by the european union. and that's because the recipient doesn't just get 50000 euros and a statue. they also get the backing over the european parliament themselves. and it has been just in the, over the last few years, the

but we will start with poland because it is taking up much of the headlines of newspapers across europe and this week. and even beyond that, following that some, it seemed member state leaders were coming out and singing to the same him basically saying that poland has to know that the rule of law is central to the heart and foundations of the european union. and what poland must do now is toe the line and also must reinstate the judges. that its act is part of this judicial shake up in its own country. however, the polish prime minister having none of that, and basically saying that this is the sort of interference that it won't accept a long road ahead of us. this road is a combination of dialogue, legal response, and concrete action to we store the independence of the judiciary. yeah, not that there is no european country that contain itself european. if it's justice, are not independent. this is at the heart of our fundamental tax. but if i, for my own, some countries have a stronger appetite for integration, others not only poland, see this issue in the opposite way in some countri

also questioning the government to the news is the name of the media media. meanwhile, gas prices in europe hit a new hi with the german government, wanting people to prepare for a chilly month ahead. they say, at the same time as the countries elegy, regulators still yet to ground, to license for rushes nord stream, to new gas pipeline. and the paramount changed, shaken by offices, outspoken criticism, manner hasty withdrawal from afghanistan. the u. s. army suffers a spike in military suicide. we looked deeper into what's behind that tragic trend in america's armed forces. ah, hello, they're great to be company saturday october. the 2nd live from ortiz will do use h q in moscow. my name's kevin o. it here for the next half hour. the latest for you'd heard most with an ad lines there, but to this 1st, the u. k. government says it's bringing in the army to deliver fuel from monday after a chaotic week. that same massive cues at 10 petrol stations across britain, around 200 service men is said to hit the road that monday with the country's defense minister saying this still needed to ease pr

the main question i ask my polish colleague, what future do you see in europe? are you part of this club? you can't be part of the club and at the same time, say the rules that apply to everybody, do not apply to you anymore. now we understand that they won't be any official mention all of that debate over poland from the european council, but unofficially we know that the council president shall, michelle says that he believes a primacy of new law is fundamental. so this is an issue that will continue to tear away at u member states. the other big discussion that was on the table on thursday was energy and how the european union is going to deal with this looming energy crisis as we move into the winter. now leaders are have apparently adopted a conclusion over how they're going to deal with a spike in energy prices. but that also is a chrissy difficult discussion. this is though what the commission president ursula vander lane had to say about that in the mich and long term. it is very clear that the strategy has to be, to invest massively in clean and renewab

on saturday parties, peter oliver reports on his way to europe. so the series of meetings that he has u. s. president joe biden was asked, will you be apologizing to french president emanuel mack on he did say, well, we've already talked about that, suggesting that perhaps have been done in the over the phone conversations. this was the 1st face to face meeting. and what we heard from joe biden was that the united states, in his opinion, had acted without grace when it came to squeezing fronts out of a submarine deal with australia. we did was clumsy with a lot of grace. i was under the impression that france happened to form long before with my arms to go me things conducted in a real badness, fear of reconciliation between paris in washington biden and micron. ab, what we did see was a little moment between the 2. when they, they were shaking hands and lots of thank you. don't thank use from the 2 presidents with you. i will be thank you. well, all of the awkwardness came about because of orchestra. that's the, the defense package that was set u

you're going to war with russia over ukraine, the most corrupt nation in europe. i mean ukraine brings nothing to the table for nato. other than a further containment of russia, it doesn't bring a thriving democracy, it doesn't bring a thriving economy, it brings nothing. and there's many european nations that just don't want any part of this. and those european nations are nato members. and they can vote know and out. i think right now you're seen germany is not inclined to support this. i don't believe france will support. i believe they don't want to support us. just enough nat. couple more points just to touch upon relations between russian nato that already an extremely low ab, as i went through. and this talk about ukraine won't exactly help build bridges in any way, will it? no, it is the opposite. but, you know, sometimes relationships have to rock bottom before they can be rebuilt, nato and russia have a very poisonous relationship right now, you know, in the united states have a very poisonous relationship. and. busy you know, sometimes that poison feste

this is not what democracies do turning question about energy or in fact, the lack of it here in europe. we know that ursula vaughan delay in the commission president is just want the businesses may have to close as a result of this crisis. as they may run out of the energy that they need to run those businesses. we know that spain is spoken to the block and said that urgent measures need to be taken. there has to be coordinated action amongst the block members to deal with this crisis, which it warned may last beyond next winter, far longer than anybody else has been talking about to date. no natural gas has gone up in price by more than 400 percent in the last year, more than 20 percent or so in the last day. that gives you a sense of how urgent this crisis is. and as this is unfolding some politicians, rather than looking at what's happening at home here in the you are concerned and pointing the finger of blame, shifting it towards russia. the current high gas prices are primarily the result of high demand and low supply. at the same time, russia is playing poker. gas supplies have b
