the the world's largest food and beverage company is caught up in a scandal facing allegations of selling healthy or baby to, to western nations. leaving developing countries with alternatives, packed with sugar. the french president says, europe is in danger and must not act as a us vessel the same week as the us secretary of state spoke for the you about us relations of china during his trips of aging and turbulent times for boeing as a tire falls off one of its jets, johannesburg is the latest safety scare for this teeming and gas prone aircraft manufacturing. john, the,

i'm rachel ruble live in moscow. this is our t international mostly has found itself in broiled in scandal as it faces, claims that it pushes baby food products, packed with sugar in developing countries, but offer as much healthy or alternative as in western nations. we've heard from african women accusing nestle of malpractice and i go to the whole speak to there is as we say see to them we databases will this and see because i really said um eunice from sugar. so i was surprised myself. so i had to withdraw every use of leslie for the for know, it has a lot of health education, negative health integrations, on the children's micro organisms help to maintain the protective layer in the go to prevent unwanted influences in the body. so the got sounds like

a binary i protecting virus on this. i bet you guys bring that by the i don't our 2 is not available in guy looked into how western food company is pushing on the healthy diet and developing countries here as her report from south africa. a shot in south africa like in many parts of the african continent, spaby, molten serial. or a booming business, sent to your open companies, dominates the field for giants initially and didn't produce the palm of that. but as of late, myspace has found itself entangled in a controlled vesee because what positioning itself as the solution to serious life threatening issues like hung up is studied by switch into public. i found the company pushing products designed for children and developing countries that are packed with adage, should that the world health organization recommends that should, that isn't added into a baby's biased towards anyone's side until they 2 years old. and one of the issues that b, c of the nest are important for some of the fact that is added sugar in some of the

poor countries. is that the reason the sugar spawn either by may say its own. so mission to double move countries or so called waste and countries is because they recognize that this is a poor nutritional outfit for young children. next slide produces to need. i'm not just full babies, but they produce food for people, wages and in 2021. there was a major scandal way, there was a internal memorandum leak but shut the place, acknowledges that up to 60 percent of the food portfolio is unhealthy. and one of the reasons it's on help is because but add additional sugar. so if you can develop a sugar of dependency and young children was, they would see them consume as that means you'll have consumers for the rest of your life for your on house and products who actually took time to visit one of so that because because supermarket and found that to the silicon baby, so we will have sugar in it. but there was no specification as to how much it

contains, unlikely as the ingredients for them. contrast incident formula and serial, sold in switzerland and of the manual pin markets with a company as his headquarters couldn't seem to notice sugar. and he said, has a history dating back to the 1970s of reportedly violate to regulations, puts in place to protect the children, including the legend use of talk me by. and as the accusations of sending formula to the poor countries which is less healthy than the natural alternative of priesthood in some countries, including south africa and even puts in place recreations that prevent companies like loosely from aggressively promoting the consumption of our shop process fluids, including products with a high sugar content. the reason that they've really strict regulations including himself, i forgot that these companies like mesa, often breach when they make these claims is because it's, i'm the minds of discourage this woman from breast feeding. now why would you

breast feed rather than getting a child commercial formula moke? also see, it wouldn't have all of these additional home full um products contained to ingredients. so it can be for a lot of matters, especially in south africa, access to say center liable to supplies. it's really difficult. so when they are preparing the form animals, it means that they are exposing their children to die already diseases, same belief that they would be more consequences in these global most countries. i think it stains from a genuine belief that they can exploit for a countries i'm, that the populations will stand for it. and they know that if they have these harmful products in the market, the way they're rated and way they show shareholders and executives. and this that they might actually use their reputation in their own countries and then those who use the support that their country is gives them when they busy with these

international shenanigans, despite the evidence presented, mislaid denies old integrations against it. we have undertaken significant efforts to minimize sugar content throughout our product range, including the face removal of edits, sugars such as sucrose and glucose syrup from our growing up milks for children above 12 months. worldwide web live, the same nutrition, health and wellness principles everywhere aligned with international guidelines and regulations. this includes compliance with labeling requirements and thresholds on carbohydrate content, including sugars, parents, children and communities in these poor countries, especially in covert district and citizens of africa with mothers have no choice but to feed the children with these products have resulted to the one thing they had abandoned, as a result of these products, breast feeding. when i 1st heard about the news, i decided to throw the products away. i don't use them anymore. i know they're still parents who have no other choice,

but to feed that children with these products using siri, lack is easy either need electricity or too much water, especially as people who never have horse and electricity, but for the life of our child is no other way we're asking the government to check these things before the end of the country for the sake of our children and the future. why would they allow us to feed all babies with dangerous cereals? they don't even tell us a wellness that clinics. well, i understand that it's a business, right? but if you're going to be marketing, product school babies, like you would a cigarette box, say this is not how healthy or it's harmful for the levels. i think they should be a key, a warning sign. they need to make the consumer real aware of the consequences of using the product for all the all coating pools for africans to buy cost. these products such tweak is limited only if you are willing to speak on some of the issues, perhaps solving just how big and influential such would science have become littlefield

. oxy. johannes spec. you're a good time. that's the message from the french president, calling the you to be more independent and unified. however, this doesn't seem to resonate with even what his allies think is, are changed. charlotte davinsky reports a saw says president data for the stock warning this week for you. we're pins, it's, we must be clear about the fact that today our europe is more until it can die. it can die and that depend solely on our choices. but these choices are 2 bit taken. now, my goal is to can narrow by the choices of with the looks, the forward feature relationships. it seems that's going to be bad news, the below running transatlantic friendship effects mid that well, we must continue to forge partnerships with non e u countries. in other words, we build a europe capable of demonstrating that that is never the vessel of the united

states. apparently, nobody in both the feeling the us secretary of state, the b e. u isn't one of its fossil states. anthony blinking was in beijing telling the chinese how to stay on the use. good side vision cannot 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 if china does not address this problem, we will, maybe someone should feel it been, but getting back to not calling to speak speech it all felt a bit would good to taste it, and that's because it was back in 2017 when he was freshly elected michael and gave a speech that acted as an i didn't take it for this week's version. he will in your report that the precipice he called for you all me

a common defense budget. none of which resonated in brussels. newell be owned, i'm time how soon we change that with the use 27 nations old marching along to the own teams. the discussion about your opinion on me is actually a displacement activity because it will not come to that. and we all know that the question is, if, if i ask is a soldier as a military, what these european, i mean, nobody could answer that most of what coincide wasn't clear to sending more a to ukraine. but getting the year to do this, to gather that is fortunately clear that quite a theme you countries will to continue to make decisions. totally, mostly take spain on greece, both of point blank refuse to send the ad defense systems over to key f. i things raising concerns about its own safety. if it did so, greece will not send neither es, 3,

hundreds nor patriots to ukraine. we have said from the start, that we cannot provide weapon systems that are critical to our deterrence capability. former trend with 40 cleared also disagree, who's mac ones. recent suggestion that you are paying ground troops could be sent to ukraine. done this, germany and well berlin bleats about coming together and everyone pulling the weight. that only goes so far because when it comes down to it, it also wants to hold tight onto its weapon supplies, particularly it's tourist missiles plus different. as far as the weapon system in question is concerned, my decision will not change. now what brussels maybe actually for my clothes id is these days is proven inc. capable of putting any of them into action. let's take something as simple as they use promised to send 1000000 artillery shells to cave by march 2024. yes. last month did it. no. why not?

it simply didn't have the capacity to produce them and that is a big problem. but in your face is a when, if it could to 3 or all of this, it's not a joke. we are in deep ammunition is a symptom of a cultural problem within europe. they're talking from an industrial point of view of building a supply chain of 2 to 3. here's going back to that other idea of an e. o. me not going isn't the only one calling for this early this year? that was the same message that came from a to these foreign minister who were suppose a flat note from at least 4 nations spain. outlining why it was a no go the establishment of his common defense, a necessary framework for the development of a european nami would require an unanimous decision of the council if achieving this requirement was almost impossible in 1992. when the re, you was composed of 12 member states, a decision by any you have 27 or more countries in the future would be very

difficult to take in this context, the idea or is unrealistic or on affordable in the near future. so sorry, missed the macro and but the idea is already fundamentally so to win blanket his trip to china was coming to a close on friday. he accused by doing of attempting to meddle in the us selection claim. and he saw evidence of that. something badging has repeatedly denied. we have seen, generally speaking, of evidence of attempts to, to influence and arguably interfere. and we want to make sure that that's cut off as quickly as possible. this is just simply biden's declining popularity, especially over issues of uh, gaza. right now, these student protests are spreading, obviously his last muslim air above which could effect them in pennsylvania and michigan. so this is a domestic issue. blanking is simply trying to set up

a narrative somehow that china favors trump as opposed to biden. because there's this beltway issue about who can be tougher on china or russia. blanket envisioning is kind of like blinking in wonderland. it's not clear what he's doing there or what he wants to achieve, and frankly, this latest trip has put in question his ability to be a credible diplomat and communicate or intellect continue. reminder the us continues to turn to china to solve issues it created. this is, you know, kind of odd as the us dismantles, the international order that it championed, you know, a post world war 2 people are saying, what does this mean? it doesn't mean that he making america great means that we should become service to you as a sort of some sort of hunger games. movie re enactment with, you know, the us at the center and everyone else subservient. it just, it is unclear and obviously the message is not resonating with the global south.

the rest of the world who just sees this is uh, you know, a very, very cynical selfishness a boeing plane has been forced to return to johannesburg after one of its tires fell off during take off. the plane was on its way to cape town when the incident occurred. this video shows the moment the plane successfully made an emergency landing. it comes as the us aircraft giant is being battered by extreme and turbulence right now. it has been accused of cutting corners to land itself, bigger profits. but the us senate is looking to clip its wings as r. t is donald quarter, explains the planes running off the taxi ways paneling falling off mid flights, windshields cracking and scores of injuries just last month. owings reputation continues to fall deeper into the gutter with the new revelation that the company is faced. 30 to whistle blower complaints over the past 3 years. it comes just days

after one of the companies engineers turned whistleblower trip to the senate floor and accused his bosses of cutting corners on the production line. are these points say right now i would not, you know, it's like an earthquake. you know it, the big earthquake is common. but when, when that hits the building that you know, you, let's say if you're talking of a building, have to be prepared to accommodate that type of a, let's say shakeup. you know, it has to be built properly, right now room, but i've seen the airplanes are allowed being built per spec and per require. i literally saw people jumping on the pieces of the airplane to get them to aligned. i call of the cars and the fact among other improper methods, the aerospace trying to attempt it to once again whitewash the situation. this time was the last minute twitter post, according to solve for though, when he raised his concerns to management, he was met not with understanding what's threats. similar accusations of

retribution were voice that a separate senate committee hearing they hear speak up if you see anything that's on the safe. but what they see is that if they do speak up, they give very little feedback. and if they insist they may find themselves on the short end of the stick next time raises or bonuses, or, or, or job transfers come up or even worse. but doctors allegation seem even more convincing when we consider the story of john barnett, a former boeing employee who also cried, follow you mysteriously died last month, apparently from a self inflicted wounds. just as he was gathering t evidence to present in a lawsuit against his former employers, o, as in charles, pushing by defects to our suppliers. well, i've taken attain before inspectors. spirit arrows systems to inspect the 41 section before they send its charles. and we found $300.00 defects. some of them were significant needed engineering intervention. one hour, it's our charleston,

my senior managers only we had found so many defects and he was going to take the next trip southern extra or you went on to a mine inspectors. and when they got back they were given national age. the only plan in 50 dfcs for its part boeing rejects these accusations that it retaliates against concerned employees and even says it's making it easier for its workers to file complaints moines, increase the promotion of the speak up reporting system result in the more than 500 percent increase in the number of submissions during the 1st quarter of 2024 compared to the same period in 2023. increased reporting is a sign of progress toward a robust reporting culture. all the while safety incidents continue to go through the roof with boeing, struggling to fulfill safety orders by airlines after 2 deadly 730. 3 in crashes in 20182019. then in march of this year alone the paddling flew off of $1737.00 mid flight. another had its windshield cracks and 50 people were even

injured after being thrown around the cabin of a 7879. during a so called technical event, it all seems to add credibility to the damming accusations of the former. boeing engineer, who spoke to the senate alongside solve for the department of justice and f. b. i relied on this landed result of the 1st match accident investigation to develop the legal and unjust deferred prosecution agreement. the n t s b chair reiterated the congress that boeing has said there are no records documenting the removal the alaska airlines store. this is a criminal cover up records do in fact exist. i know this because i personally passed them to the fbi i to make matters worse for the company. stocks have dropped 35 percent this year, making boeing the 2nd worst performing company on the s and p 500 index. these are the same people who want to make flying cars by 2030. it's an idea that was more than crazy enough to bring out the internet. trolls no tags. they can't even make

reliable fine planes yet. will the doors and windows full off? i want to know thank experience. they already protected flying doors, hail know if it's boeing, then i'm definitely not going. do you want a secretary of state to had a problem with his bowing plane twice already and even had to travel by car? so it's potentially lethal technical failures continue to pile up. it's likely more and more people from all walks of society will go out of their way to avoid boeing aircraft altogether. europe and politicians are taking their support for cab one step further. this time by replacing diplomacy was issuing its threats to moscow. the lithuanian ambassador suite and took to his ex account to post a picture of the crime in bridge and a flying rock at warning that people should take photos of it. while it still standing history, which generated thousands of views online, caused

a strong reaction. deep on social media stated the investors tweet is nothing less than a terrorist threat, calling for destruction of critical infrastructure and putting a civilian that lives at risk or so. it was also quick to respond saying that such a gas will be regretted in the future looks like and same as the course garad, the tweet on north stream, some of the ash which she call her. i believe the later later inspires serve while baltic us lab dogs. they rapidly bark now, but they will pathetically wind later when the judgement day arrives. and all such a gas will be something that will regret ukrainian intelligence is now applauding. it's 3rd attack on the crime in bridge, calling its destruction inevitable as, according to western media reports to published earlier this month. the bridge connecting crimea with russia has been attacked twice since the start of the trade in conflict using car bombs and robins as a result. and 5 people were killed with care of claiming responsibility from both

of the attacks which moscow caught. busy acts of terrorism the most cross now to greg simon's associate professor at the ups all a center of russian studies based in sweden, joining us from st. petersburg. greg, i'd like to hear your thoughts on this tweets by the lithuanian ambassador. what do you think he was trying to achieve by posting this? well, i mean, we're still in diplomats these days of robert mysterious because it's an anti diplomacy which they engage. and i suppose a thought that this was something kind of virtue as a 2nd billing that he could do on the ends of may. it because you have both of the has the area in the cycle for you waste, which is uh, select call site. and it's not making any sense because you can't imagine what i would say if someone from china,

iran or russia tweeted typed the last picture of london bridge because it's going to go down. so you live in a very much of a fantasy, will the end of it go to the chamber and well, judging from the comments on the linkedin post, he miscarried? yeah. and to your point, there are the these comments for her made by an investor. i mean, what does this tell you? what the state of near pin diplomacy and it's role in the ukranian conflict? there is no diplomacy. uh, those are only those kind of, uh, victory, all like rhetorics, which if anything, is a form of anti diplomacy. uh, and it's all in the outcome is to accelerate the tensions and perhaps even the scale of the nature of the conflicts itself. this tweet comes out for a ports of the print in forces preparing another attack on the chrome, right, and permian bridge that has been attacked twice before. how serious do you think

this threat is? well, did you cranium, military and political system? uh, very desperate at the moment, but i have not like military victories. so they're trying to score some something that looks like victory over the progress. uh, even if it's an act of terrorism and has no substantial effect on the outcome of the battle field. yeah, well why would the ukraine in europe openly call for another attack on the bridge the previous attacks resulted in the depths of civilians? yeah, well it, exactly. i mean, they don't care about the depth of civilians. i mean, this is about is some kind of fishy ventured signaling. so showing that somehow russia is vulnerable, a box of pulls. they're trying to protect the weakest points to make this point because things on the battlefield and not going the way anticipated by the waste or ukraine since the beginning of the conflicts. and what that to it and attack on the

bridge to even play any sort of role in the overall situation on the ground when it comes to the war new frame. you know, it would, might know a significant outcome or impacts on the prosecution with the results, the image results of the war. i mean it, but this is just about some kind of signaling that this kind of a fight for subs telling the progress which ultimately in the end amounts to nothing about tough. well, what about that response that we saw on x from polanski, the russian new and deputy investors saying that europe will regret these comments later down the line. what do you, what do you make of that common sense? the thing, the males before engaging the brains. and generally when you do things this way, relates come lice, but they don't have the intelligence to think of this basic life issue. s a rebate

. sorry, i mean, i think you'd be absolutely right. all right, we're gonna leave it there. greg simon's associate professor it up solace. center of russian studies at st. petersburg. thank you for your thoughts professor. thank you. let's say is of shared future was the theme of the 19th at western pacific naval symposium. was china hosted this week for the 1st time in the 10 years before they meeting some more than 184 and delegates of 10 from 29 countries, including russia of the united states. a strictly on japan for a naval leaders were invited to discuss the global maritime security and peace initiative based on cooperation in naples, security, and the international law. at this year's meeting, participants were invited to take part in a live show, as well as military and cultural excursions. more on this and a report sent by a see dtn correspondent and now, oh the destroyer agree? yeah, now certainly 6 and then we'll invest those instead of this stocked add,

the ports in seeing the are open to the public. delegates from for a number of forces took a tour of some of the chinese num, vessels on wednesday morning, fresh towards a manifestations of the whose countries one hospitality visa, also industries named better communication with the forwarding force of the hosting culture. here has been phenomenal. everyone's been super welcoming to us and to be able to see your ships. it seems here and seeing now where you have a naval base has been an awesome experience for all of us. so we can see that it is very, very mundane. professionally ment in the to is very alert and smart. very good to see all this. the p o a name is museum, was another stop for the feeling that would delegates on wednesday morning founded in 1989. it is the only military museum in china. it fully reflects the development of chinese navy pakistan and ron, we'll go ahead with their long awaited guess project despite us warnings not to do

so. during his trip to pakistan or rant in president. right. you see, discuss the final steps to implement the move which was due to be completed in 2012, but was delayed by pakistan and due to fears of us sanctions. right. you see reiterated during the meeting, but this opportunity can be used to benefit both nations. dish about a kid mad as a to long ease. we can say that the long border between the 2 countries to be an opportunity, we believe that this opportunity can be used during how does the welfare of the 2 nations, especially residents of border areas. our short visit to a border area along with his excellence see the prime minister with a show of cooperation between the 2 countries in board of trade and board of markets. this can definitely be expanded to activate. it cannot make or city and trade. uh somebody with a very useful conversation and with the grace of god, we have discussed some great detail and mutual relations between the 2 brothers countries, religion, culture, embassy and investment security. and this whole piece of pipeline has been on the back burner for more than

a decade in the wake of the western sanctions on your launch. but now there's a long delayed gas pipeline. has to be a jet of president where he sees a trailer tow package that as is long or wide has signal that it will no longer wait for the us wide to go ahead with the much needed projects is important. natural gas from here on is vital for pakistan, given the pressing need to lead to be energy demands of its vast population of 214000000 years. which background of what has happened so far? back in 2009, there weren't signed an agreement, lifeline. pretty transfer to natural gas to pakistan. vicious initiative supplying pakistan was up to 1000000 cubic feet per day of natural gas for 25 years from its abundant reserves and the south farms, a gas field with delivery slated under pakistan give on the border pipelines.

extensive route started over 110201780 kilometers within pakistan. each proximity was possible for their respective segments and their territories did complete its portion by 2020. by 2012. of course, it was ready to transport gas to pakistan by 2015, but not stored on to 2013 a year later, in 2014 pakistan told the wind government to do it to us sanctions on it. one big send the contractors on. we're going to go ahead with the project on pakistan's side there one time said, based on the agreement on the cancellation of the project will require pakistan to find. but after 10 long years of controversy is level one gave the approval to begin construction of an 80 kilometers section of the pipeline as part of the 7000000000.
