9:00 am
was doing the sets of remained on the onset so many years. watch on see the we've already impose sanctions on more than a 100 chinese entities export controls, etc. and we're fully prepared to actually take additional measures for washington. a tab still block male bay gene, claiming it's ready to wield its sanction sword in china 1000. and it's a lead support for russia over the war. but you, great promising so much. but then i bring so little you trained reports of the withdrawal as the much affected us, a bronze tanks on the front lines after they approve easy pickings for cheap russian jo. at lastly, phases, criticism for pushing sugar pac baby formulas in developing nations while offering
9:01 am
heavier versions for west of markets. we've heard from those behind the research for the green. the fields sold by in this thing sits in on our without with any added sugar. one, any low when needed income countries, you find 2 grams on average in that product. we need to clear those found on the sugar here, no sugar. they're out of the us mr. withdrawal of a majority of special forces from chad as a central often nation. preston, washington road and katherine terrorism. the brothers auto international reaching you from the russian capital walk into the latest updates. i am like now washington turning up the heat on china over the watering ukraine of the us. that gives you a state onto the blinking has opened, threatened bathing with new sanctions. if it doesn't cods,
9:02 am
a lead support for russia facing to not achieve better relations with europe while supporting the greatest threat to european security. since the end of the cold war . as we told china for some time, ensuring transatlantic security is a for us interest in our discussion today, i made clear that china does not address this problem. we will, we've already impose sanctions on more than a 100 chinese entities, export controls, etc. and we're fully prepared to, to act take additional measures. and i made that very clear your mind meetings today, or i would crossing live to i take a correspondence out of the best be joining me right here. so is it good to have you do? i mean, not such an open accusation from the united states. is it like the turning along the heat? isn't it? yes, right. i mean, it's essentially a threat from the us do what we will need to do,
9:03 am
or we're going to function more of your businesses and you'll find these sections, of course, come off of the effects of the us to said it's already section some chinese companies as a result of china doing trade with it's may, but in rush it was really interesting is the fact that anthony blinking, who is then us, secretary of state, is in china. and these also apparently advocating for european nations 27 nations paul the you and say with don't do we want you to do, then you will have access to you apply the and plea. that's what the case we saw the german chancellor invasion just a week ago. this is all of schultz reaffirming germany, which is the biggest new engine of power and industrial base in europe. same once again. we want to trade with china. we also have heard from brussels saying that it wants china to open up its public markets. so it's interesting that blinking seems to think she's talking not just phase nation, but 27 other nations. i think they probably have a fairly different take on that. but it is something like china is,
9:04 am
is upset with blinking landing in china and telling them what to do. there's any, i think most people would be pretty upset if he turned up with that home and then started telling them what to do. but yes, we put some incredibly strong statements from the chinese as a result to bring kittens visit, basically unhappy, but on to me, blink and says do as we say not as we do. and this is specifically in relation to the fact that the us has just passed this must have for an a bill $61000000000.00. it's going to head to create thousands and thousands of miles away from the us. at the same time, the us, the thing to china, you called trade with rashid comp, sudden military equipment of china, even to russia, even though russia is its neighboring country. let's help listen to what the ministry spokes based off of the foreign ministry have to say may fall you back to the higher authority while you're on the one hand, the u. s. has launched a large scale built a new crane, and on the other hand,
9:05 am
it has made endless accusations against the normal economic and trade relations between china and russia. this is extremely hypocritical and irresponsible nato bears and irreparable responsibility for the crisis. the alliance must reflect on its role, stop shifting, blame, and effectively take practical actions to resolve the crisis. politically. this is a very strong statement for the chinese mo, many they've very neutral when it comes to quitting, but it really seems, but this visit by on to me blinking to beijing has really wild and not particularly of the, some of the comments he's made. now, when it comes to asia, a, some of the west to use this exactly the same playbook doing today. i. yes, that, that, that's true. um, you know, we've got the issues surrounding taiwan at the moment. we've got the fact that the us says it acknowledges the one china policy taiwan is sometimes the sex perspective, part of its country. at the same time, us just sending weapons to china to tell i want it. it's all very confusing as to
9:06 am
what the us is. stance is on this of the picture, particularly. i want to emphasize that it was not us, but they who came to us came to our borders. this once again shows that westerners can not be trusted. now we're being told that the pressure is not stopped in ukraine, then we will supposedly attacked the countries of the lines. the russian federation has never threatened naples, who have neither geo political, more military interest to attack the states of that book. we're simply protecting our people in our historical territories. we have always made every effort to maintain strategic stability and the balance of power in the world. the united states on the country 1st created and is now deliberately prolonging the concepts in ukraine. well they go, that was the russian farm is the circuit show grew that talking about the fact from
9:07 am
his perspective, it is native that is causing tensions in regions across the world and not really has been something that is putting that over. no, but we've seen it, not just now when you claim that we've seen this in a rock in the past, i've gotten this done. and also in libya, write a whole lot to follow up on all of this. some of the best skis. thank you for bringing us up to speed on this right now. let's turn to our to contribute to call josh, who believe the slapping sanctions on final will only speed up a see change of the global economy. a lincoln is basically threatened me to expand sanction south china. i mean you, us have currently maintaining somebody comes after sanctions by us, have breton to use financial sanctions on chinese companies and chinese banks that do business with russia and others quite serious threats. china will not be intimidated by the threat of additional sanctions that i mean china have phase
9:08 am
us sanctions before the china will find a way and us sanctions on russia has already cost of russia to move off of dollars. that kicked off the trend of the dollarization. now, if us is going to move probably the financial sanctions on china, you're going to see the world's largest economies moving off dollars. i mean, this is gonna co have huge consequences in the world financial market. china will find out sir, it is, i mean now the brakes is already talking about a common bricks courtesy us policy is gonna just give an additional push on your trains reportedly withdrawal and its us supplied advised a bronze tanks on the front lines. i see a being easily picked up by cheap ross and roads and thats according to to us many
9:09 am
tree offers. i'll find it in the western media report. now let's discuss it with our correspondent egos done of joining us in the studio, and he will bring us up to speed on this is always good to have you join me right now. not be a problem or haled at the best time. so the, well just so can it be that they've been, they've been beaten on by tiny drones, is like the story of david. i'm glad as well. mike, this is exactly the case. now if you recall the united states from the very outset, they've been very reluctant to supply it's abrams tanks to ukraine. now we can clearly see why and we can see that those shipments came with strings attached. again, when the united states, when, if you recall, all the deliberation that was done on the matter back within the nato countries, back in 2023. essentially the united states. they was thrown off by germany into sending the abrams tanks. because berlin defacto said,
9:10 am
well if you want. 7 us to send our lip and tags to ukraine than you better chip into. and that's how the united states ended up sending 31 of its abrams machines to key of to ukraine. and well, according to the russian ministry of defense, at least 8 of them have already been destroyed by the russian troops. and what comes especially painful for the united states is not just the very fact that it's main factual tank that has been promoted for decades is the best i can the world that well it, it, apparently it is just the, it's the same. it's no different from any of the, it's the even lose isn't some departments to other pieces of equipment, but also, and that's bad enough already. but what's also exceptionally bad and that doesn't look good for washington, is the fact that a drone worth some, $500.00, is enough to destroy a machine that is, was millions. and you can imagine how much uh,
9:11 am
engineering thoughts was put into these machines. and now they're taken apart and blown to bits by something that was created, maybe in the basement, maybe in the very trench under something works so little. all right, now the, the was so much expectation behind these pads where and that because everyone saw, even for the we're going to be the game changer. absolutely. because when i'm saying that the u. s. was reluctant to supplied staggs, i'm nearly well describing the actions and i'm commenting on the actions. but if you listen to what they had to say, both washington may so and ukraine about, well abrams tanks and how they're going to be a game changer. well, you thing cause a rush of those tags to the front line and have a listen to united states will be sending 31 a room tags to ukraine, the equivalent of one ukrainian battalion david was trying to the most capable
9:12 am
tanks in the world. they are also extremely complex to operate and maintain. so we're also given ukraine, the parts and equipment necessary to effectively sustain these tanks on the boss, look, when it comes to the abrams tank. we've said we're going to continue to talk to the cranes about their needs and we're gonna, we're and continue to meet them as best we can. and we'll do that. the abrams is a, a powerful system. there's no doubt about it. this is a very powerful step by the united states. you frame will receive abrams tanks. i personally think, mr. president biden. these tanks must be like a fist a freedom that knocks out tyranny so that it may never stand up again. we can do this. that's cool. well, in fact, it was months until this quote unquote, the most capable tank in the world. actually a page of the ukrainian battlefield, they was supplied back last year. there was applied last year in september and
9:13 am
again they were bill which would be seen on the front lines as ukraine kept losing chunk of the chunk of the chunk over it started for you. i mean, i covered the bottles formatting, got a key. uh, a key stronghold outside the city of the nets, cuz that was uh well, that it was that 489 long. yes. and well, abrams didn't, didn't make a showing to help you. great in from the on the so they lost it. and then we covered plenty of other bottles on again, on the front lines and we did not see any of the abrams tanks there. and so the very 1st size thing that we got was during another batch of outside of the town of the nest. the bottle full of dave cuts, ukrainian troops were badly out. number that they were out, guns and abrams tanks, these very powerful machines, they failed to make a difference. in fact, that was where the cranium lost. pretty much all of the abrams tanks, that the, they have lost to data. again, according to the russian ministry of defense,
9:14 am
that's about 8 machines. and so now there's a very capable machine that has to color. they have to sideline them for them to take them back. and now the, basically what they're doing these abrams tanks, they are working from about 10 to maybe 15 kilometers away from the front line as an auxilary piece. and basically that means that most of the capabilities, they just go to waste again because they are no match to a $500.00 drone. now, what about other western tags that have been supplied? how have they fed any better? a? well, no, not a tool. uh, if this story goes for any of the military equipment that was supplied by the nato by the united states to ukraine. if you take liquid tanks, they will hold graveyards in those upper wars you because these lep and tanks, the german made, they were the main mud force during ukraine's cut or offensive, or rather their attempt at a counter offensive that failed spectacularly. and ended up with the very will with
9:15 am
very mind a gains and massive losses for the ukranian army. same thing go for bradley's for mode is pretty much any other nation, a piece of equipment. and in fact, to other tanks that are still that i yet to be seen on the battlefield. a british made challenges. well, apparently they were supplied even though they were completely on fits to operate in the environment and on the soil. in the south of ukraine, have a look the challenge it to prioritize is begun and protection. so it's not the fastest tank out there, but it is one of the most powerful claims to have the record for the longest range of killing destroying another time. just this challenge is full admittedly precise. actually, they've had real problems with it in ukraine because of its repetitive. so you can
9:16 am
see it's so powerful, but i'm calling to handle the, you know, the narrow roads. he, monday, roads of ukraine. so again, and these the setbacks, they have been pursuing pretty much every piece of native equipment that has been sent to ukraine. and in fact, russia, he's capitalizing on this, not just on the battlefield, but also uh well in the deep, in the deep on the deep home front. i have to say, because russia will be exhibiting some of the examples of the trophies of trophy machines that had managed to salvage and extracts from the front line. and they will be put up on display in moscow for everyone to see just as a another way to rub this into. well, the western part, this wide hearty is goes is it goes down. no, thank you so much for bringing us up to speed on this. thank you. now for many new borns, it's a black, a po dot that helps with the development but claims that food jobs,
9:17 am
nestle is offering a less healthy version of its baby formula in developing nations compared to elsewhere is proving a hard to swallow for new mothers. now we've heard from lauren and gabrielle from the team who's been carrying out the research of all the green up the sol, by this name, sweetser on our without any edits, sugar while in low and middle income countries, you find 2 grams on average in the products and the situation is to me, 9 key or the markets. we've also had to look at germany phones and the u. k. which all but the main markets for misleading europe. and the situation is to say, no, uh most baby cereals been growing up, you know, uh, products sold by next the whole. so without any edits you, there is quite ironic because the world health organization and, and basically there's a consensus at the, at the global level that the sugar added sugar is the key public enemy when it comes to nutrition house. but on the other hand,
9:18 am
you don't find information about the amount of audit sugar on the picky package of the product of the report compact. the sugar content of 2 of nestle is best selling a baby food brands and low and middle income countries in file and did feel p as in india. and it was up to 6 grams of sugar. subbing of the same bronze in the year of surprisingly contained no sugar artery is rebecca and not be to pull has been looking at the situation in indonesia a didn't tastic ation by zurich. base watched off public eye and international baby food action network has her feel set nestle, the global food and beverage dry and f, x pressure and honey to and from milk m serial product sold in developing countries compared to the same product sold. market indonesia, as mentioned in the report. so we decided to see for ourselves i went through 4
9:19 am
different supermarkets in the capital jakarta, to look forward to sarah like instance serial and need to a powder mill squared. naturally a renewed the product to den count in indonesia. i found that sir elect as not a common product to find in supermarkets compared to other local options. but we managed to find the instant serial in the last store. i visited it based on the information on the packaging. sarah look, instance serial has 5 to 15 grams of sugar per survey. this particular flavor of the milk and honey has 15 grams of sugar for serving while den called meals contains 10 to 15 grams of sugar per survey. this one has 15. it is not always easy for consumers to tell whether contains added sugar and how much is present only based on personal information that's being printed on the package. properly, i reported that this particular flavor sam call one and then
9:20 am
called one plus one seal in indonesia has 0.8 grams of edit sugar per serving in the form of money. however, none of this information is printed on the packet. this has proved negative reactions from worried families around the country. in response, the government is trying to keep down the storm of anger by ensuring that the products in circulation has met all the nutritional requirements, including sugar, salt of an even fat. the new nation food and drug monitoring agency created be held to your choice logo to help people choose how to your package products. one of the requirements is that sugar content must be below 6 drams per a 100 milliliters for each bar fridge package. nestle uses this loophole to keep producing the baby formula in indonesia, something that natalie chose not to do in the european market. while it's claim that it hasn't broken any of the countries guidelines all day as well. the world
9:21 am
health organization recommends that added sugar should be completely avoided in the 1st year of life. of the ledges that we apply double standards between countries in our baby food portfolio and that some of our baby food brands contain excessive ad and sugar. 3 port, a ledges that nested these practices ignore w h o guidelines that is simply not true. the public does not take this matter lightly. many customers feel disappointed that they are risk their children's health, while trying to give the best option for their development. what us nestle only do that in indonesia, why isn't sugar added in products that are on you're being countries? there should be accountability from nesta. to clarify this, i pay attention to the ingredients. ingredients are not clear. i hesitate to choose it. it must be done spotted about sucrose consumption. how much lock those does the number one think i have to pay attention to that. i just found out about this
9:22 am
information. why? of the different ingredients for nestle, they should be able to maintain old products in all countries with the same standards. if it's depending she added. what is the basis for that action? because a company is because nestling should be able to equalize all its products with a house, then that whether it's an agent unit or anywhere else, it should be the same, modest bond to the consumer. i think this can be considered as public the section because every product must be accountable for what itself, when they don't write what's really in the product that can harm the consumers. why does this lead do that in indonesia? why isn't sure to edit in products around here being countries, they should be accountability from the split to clarify this, the ingredients is the number. one thing i have to pay attention to. this finding is concerning. looking at the increased rate of ability in low and middle income countries including indonesia, indonesia are recorded the number of abuse children age 5 to 19 years has increased
9:23 am
10 fold. and the last 4 decades. a matter that many families around the nation are keenly aware off, while the government is working to advocate millions of families. an additional sugar that might lead to obesity is the last thing that the country meets actually doing in takes a few. okay. not only for children, for a, for instance, um, also for dogs exceed consuming sugar. it can be a problem. one of it is a lease if the, the sugars candle is something bigger. young children who get used to sweet flavors start to seek sweeter foods. this starts a negative feedback cycle that increases the risk of nutritional disorders in adulthood, including obesity, diabetes, and high blood pressure. global foot conglomerates such as nestle should really take responsibility for their actions. is their true aim is to contribute to creating a good, healthy life. not and responds naturally. sadie complies with all the local
9:24 am
legislation, however long gabrielle again says a such companies exact the considerable influence over governments. so we confronted next day with our findings and their response is basically that they comply with all national legislations and international standards. and this is true, but as i mentioned, they are the one, they have a huge influence on the weight and national legislations and codecs, thumbs off of being developed. and so of course they comply with those standouts. uh, but the, the, the, the practice is from our point of view problematic from an ethical point of view, but also about the cast point of view. nestle also says that the have been removed already reduced by such a defense, the amount of sugar in the baby cereals. and that they also are removing that part of the edit sugar from the need to a product. but in fact, what we're seeing is that they keep adding loads of sugar in those product y in
9:25 am
switzerland. they have the most completely. it also nestle says that this was a strange, strange response we got from that's they, they are saying that you have a small variation in the recipes of product might happen. know, depending on the availability of local ingredients, but also look of preferences. and that is really surprising. no, because we're not one. we're not talking about small variations. now it's a clear don't stand on the sugar here. no issues. are there other you access to withdrawal? thousands of special forces from the central africa nation of chad. and that's according to the pets i've gotten, although it claims that the measure is only temporary is talks continue with. chatty and officials, us after com is currently planning to re position some u. s. military forces from chad, a portion of which were already scheduled to the park. this is a temporary step is part of the ongoing review of our security cooperation,
9:26 am
which will resume after chads may 6th presidential elections. these developments are a black eye for the american foreign policy, especially considering how hard the bided administration attempted to avert to this outcome. but essentially off the chad cold on the united states withdrawal its troops from an army base in the country. the united states finally gave in and decided that it will be towards me as early as next week, despite some uncertainty about with the washington state. as a forces agreement to with chad can continue, will be negotiated. the initiate of came straight from chad, even though many reports make it seem like washington is the drawing at its own liking. and that this does come off to the u. s. agreed to to withdrawal. it's more than $1000.00 service members covering fees. i'm deployed in the z, the u. s. has tried to call to vote. it's itself raw. the,
9:27 am
with the military machines in boats had a new ze, i'm hoping to preserve, longstanding counter terrorism ties and to, to maintain millage assets, including the $100000000.00 joint base, situated in the museum. and so 2 of august is that to act to as the have before the veiling, much of the entire as to how region. and during the cruise, the wind, some of these african countries kicked out the french military. and as a wisdom back security deposit is the us government to misread the signals and um us to the moves and the action as a win for them. and so what to put when thing is you have indeed a shift over and dictates the terms even with the lights of check just but then also when it comes to chad. the situation is a bit of a different dynamic because ted, who was not to overturn the system, but to preserve the system. we've also seen report stating that the u. s. and chad have agreed that to the period following the upcoming tab in presidential election
9:28 am
is an appropriate time to review, secure your to corporation. 1 may read into that and seeing that there will be a view configuration of the relationship between side and the united states. after the election and i think this goes back to watch, a lot of people are saying that the most significant aspects of these coming elections in chat is not the final results, but was off the extent to which the ellipse said, lee, the ship will be able to navigate the complex political issues and continue with the transition towards a more inclusive and democratic system. what we all get to on the bond as well is that to advertise never been a top priority for the united states. oh, you is need is most impactful. initiates of the but the administration devoted only limited episode, attention to the continent. and russia is offering governments in africa, a survival package, a received something that the united states has never been able to. and that's why
9:29 am
efforts, indeed, as an o oscar and russia to train due to this at this moment. i think one of the american generals will visit the country this week to determine a withdrawal. but we would like russia to join a troops that includes the conduct of battle and the use of weapons. we're interested in buying weapons. it says city african nations are increasingly standing up to wisdom powers rejecting their continued terminations. well, the onto west incentive med is on the african continent, is not just limited to chat of the un peacekeeping mission. and the democratic republic of the congo has closed one of its key basis that and that's it for pass to quit the federal off again. nation late of this year, of the request of the government now from administrative into not international relations and cooperation to sub africa lead the way since you do joins me right here. and just to do is nice to have you done the administer. thank you. thank you . very much. now, there is a tendency of african nations overhauling the mid 3 ties with the west. what the
9:30 am
nature of change do you see that's needed here? oh, well it does depend on the circumstances to begin with. because for me, my reference point is how we got to where we got to and we didn't have relations with the rest. so we didn't have any in position of the west on us except when we invited them because we wanted to sell, i did to the whole load and have the whole load supported. we'd be no press for the longest time possible long of to most of the can. country has received a independence. we lived in an a parties situation. so by the time that people are ready to go back home, we'd love tell us what would work and what would work. so we wanted the words to buy into, into, into our solution. and then finally we did it to a.
