Because out of the people for the issue and the people to take them to be from us. Also people see them as a token of estates in the courtroom. But others argue they are an outdated relic of british colonialism. The issue of whigs has a long split opinion among judges, lawyers on the public as a whole. Back in 2019, the Judicial Service commission reportedly ordered 26. 00 wigs costing 126000. 00. The order drew accusations of extravagance in a country embroiled in an economic crisis is what a young generation of zimbabwe lawyers has to say on the matter. We cannot be spending such amounts to that thing and its significance really is quite questionable. And on the grounds that we, as zimbabwe is africa, were now a liberated country. Why do we still continue doing things that, that seem to teach it to show that we are still under colonial influence . Made think we as africans have our own way of depicting decency, and i dont think it bob week has any significant in so its really that it costs a lot of money. Its something unnecessary. I think its ridiculous that weve seen so much thousands of on work for our judges, especially considering the fact that it is your value to since then, as our judges against lawyers, french finance minister, bruno lamar has lashed out, its a multi 1000000000. 00 euro investments and its Clean Energy Companies saying the move makes European Companies less competitive with the overseas firms. The official even threatened to meet washington in the world trade organizations caught some large Foreign Companies that wanted to set up in europe. And now hesitating between european and american sites on calling for a united, strong and told unaided response from the e. U to our american allies. Either they will be resolved there and we hope they will. Thats why we have the task force to discuss this. Or we will have go to the w t o in, in visits, retaliatory measures the move which is called the inflation reduction. I create the tax preferences for green american companies, giving them significant investments with tens of billions of dollars, as well as tax credits for components produced in us factories, which could lower potential investors and businesses away from europe. But its not only the u. S. Clean energy firms that could start to benefit from the Global Crisis is also fossil fuel firms. Lets take a closer look at the profits of Us Oil Producers who benefited from sewing prices. They made over 200000000000. 00 since the start of the war and ukraine. And of course, the insuring sanctions against russia. Now this was twice the amount compared to the same period last year. And according to experts, the cash flow is a record breaking amounts for the oil firms. And the use concerns are not unfounded. As the u. S. Government subsidies on the firms high earnings creates better conditions for doing business in the u. S. As you can see on the screen here, not full gas prices in the u, a 4 times higher than in the us and europe. So electricity prices are almost twice as much as in the u. S. Financial and banking. Sorry, financial banking professor mich verna says the ear responds to american attempts to undermine business in europe is expected. It is high time. It is long overdue because essentially the us has been acting very much against the interest of its allies in europe. And its almost been official policy to bring down the european economy. The u. S. Has been exploiting its allies for its own benefit. And at the moment it seems to be one consideration as to the port, the us dollar, which has been crumbling and ensure that the us dollar remain strong. So by knocking down the european economy, the euro has been falling, and that has boosted us dollar the u. S has been the biggest beneficiary of all the sanctions imposed on russia since 2014 already. Ready it was perhaps even more obvious in those days, so its called the shore. The press conference we mentioned earlier between the russian and Indian Foreign ministers has just kicked off the market. So listening and see what they have to see us in useful. We are in our countries are studies connected by storing the size of neutral the risk factors you will see, which was all sufficiency. Sustainability, 1000000000 of them. And the day we screen, the school shared the positions that strengthening called the rush, an indian Privilege Strategic Partnership into this. Im not sure really lacks special interest reading people as young and as opposed to helps to maintain regional and International Security and stability. And we also stated each school intensive, fully to call dialect, 1st of all, at the highest level, and also at the level of the Foreign Ministry deposits in region 9. We welcome the positive dynamics solve bilateral trade by september, the trade from the personal go, the bullies that in comparison with the last year, if you buy more than 113, it gives you a sense. It reached almost 17000000. 00 and we are confident that the goal that was sat by our leader ship to ring the annual freight for number 230000000000. 00 will be achieved. So we have to socially from union stock, which we have read that the key role in it, or what we can trade in economy and Investment Corporation through the top ration name with the fields of my to states transportation ally chains, high tech miss laid by the inter governmental india, Russia Commission on trade, economic, scientific, technological and so it wouldnt cost the cultural cooperation today.

Well then next to strengthen our cooperation and all the areas and we will stay in contact with this, but youre also hearing the upcoming to start pretty well collateral advance and and do 20. Thats all take place this week. Thank you for the attention. Thank you. Ah ah, friends of the press are, as you all know, im her in moscow for my regular consultations with part of mr. Sergey lovegrove. I also met deputy Prime Minister dentist montero who is my counterpart as the co chair of the Inter Governmental Commission that we both had or we of course are still in the midst of our discussions. We have done one round of hot dogs or so i will give you a board to read out on what we discussed as well as some issues which i think we will be taking forward immediately after this press conference. Now before i come to that, it is important that i lay out the context for this visit. Normally that would not be necessary or, but these are unusual types. Let me begin by emphasizing that india and russia have a Long Standing Partnership that has served both countries very well, a well many decades. This covers a range of practical cooperation in fields like trade, investment, energy, commodities, et cetera, as well as sensitive domains like defense, space and nuclear. My objective in coming her today is to sit down with my russian counterparts, minister lovegrove and deb to be a month or of an assess along who we are doing. Ah, lisa radley, our leisure lane, just that we need to address as well as 5 or 6 that we are loading. Hold on, its not taking exercise. I am accompanied by senior officials proudly elian ministry chair, some liberty with her and petroleum and accidental gas, all shooting and all the wish, finance, chemical and symbolizes. And i some on the same industry. In the last few years. We in yeah, russia, we have that apple with hollow classes rate. And then you can use all at autos of a non gonzo de leon or group. Some of these uses, his options are really limited results. I tolerated by the status of the building and building on a me suddenly experiencing including as a conflict. Melendez. And i havent noted that as you look and enrolled in on. I like it was really that this year and im focused on on allowed me make it more to something that we are not really concerned that i did really in the mileage and other ages with our agents. Right. Hello. We were really met an immense at, at, and in the way of in the course, really, real d, her s a r c s. And i knew really romance. It is all about her. Im that is it. A defense relationship continues to upon you mostly. Not only are in the 1000000, but i live all the ration has been attending, and i teach him him in the last few years. I got my mom, my relation to do normal foreign minister, lovegrove, of course, has spoken about some of these issues in his remarks. We discussed with to expand and diversify our cooperation. Moving beyond traditional areas, promotion of into Regional Cooperation has been a key priority for us, particularly with the russian far east. We also discussed enhancing connectivity, including through the international north, south transport corridor, as well as the chin nie vladivostok eastern by the time curriculum. I updated minister lovegrove and m t p a monta rook on in the us flagship initiatives including our planet. But part of that is self reliant, india and making india or that can serve as platforms for a more contemporary economic relationship between not 2 countries. Now it is natural that for as Foreign Ministers we exchange views on the International Situation from our particular perspective and one touch points. Obviously though crane conflict was a dominant feature, although we will continue to have discussions on it. Let me take this opportunity to lay out the indian position on this matter. As Prime Minister mowdy conveyed to president putin and summer content september, this is not an 8 hour war. The Global Economy is simply to interdependent for a significant conflict. Anyway, not to have major consequences elsewhere. We are seeing growing concerns on energy and food security. Emanate from the conflict that are coming on top of severe stresses created by 2 years of cobit. The global salt especially is feeling the spain, very acutely. India, therefore, strongly advocates a return to dialogue and diplomas. We clear we are clearly on the side of peace, respect for international law, and support for the un charter in so far as specific initiatives pertaining to his shoes, like food grains, and Fertilizer Shipments are concerned. Or any other problem for that matter, india will be as helpful as we can be. Or indeed, i would say that for any initiative that d risks, the Global Economy and stabilizers the global order. At this stage, india will be supported from our side. I also shared with mr. Loughborough, the indian reading of recent trends in the subcontinent. Youre all aware that countries have experienced serious economic difficulties. There are other factors of instability as well. Terrorism, including his cross border manifestation remains a major concern. Where the indoor pacific is concerned, both our nations have stakes in its progress and prosperity. We, as our partners highly valued, the centrality of our c, r to the larger regional architecture. From the viewpoint of our respective interest, we exchange views about how the goals of the International Community are best served, including and securing the global comments or talks also addressed a number of regional issues on afghanistan. We discussed how to continue or support for the people of afghanistan, even as we are taliban to fulfill its international commitments. Or we are both members of various formats where the of gone related issues come up for review. And we will continue to be in close touch. I hope to discuss, of course, in the coming session, the prospects of the iranian j. C. P. O. Because india believes that the way forward must be found in the interests of global peace, security, and non proliferation. I also expect a wider exchange of a suspension the Current Situation in the middle east, what we call west asia, including matters pertaining to syria and palestine. India today has a wide range of interests and a growing footprint. Some of this is expressed in terms of are you and responsibilities. Are like the chair of the libya committee. Some men are traditionally close partnerships with africa. And now increasingly are deeper economic involvement. With many regents the world is moving towards greater multiple oddity to steady and continuous re balancing. And that especially means a multiple lot asia, as prominent nations who have a positive history of working together. This will naturally influenza conversations between russia and india. Our 2 countries are members of the g 20 the bricks and the shanda Cooperation Organisation amongst us. How we Work Together in these format is also on our agenda. You all know that india has resumed the chair of the seal and will take over the presidency of the g 20 in december. We strongly believe that the pressing concerns of the International Community as a whole, must be fully recognized and effectively addressed. The state of multilateralism, especially the working of the un and its key organs is to day, clearly wanting even as we focus on the immediate the case for reform. Multilateralism, including a reformed un Security Council, is becoming difficult to deny. We welcomed Russian Support for india in that regard. In conclusion, let me say that we have had a morning of very open and productive exchanges. As i noted, we are still somewhat halfway through our discussions. But minister loughborough allow me to thank you for your hospitality for your welcome, and i am confident that our talks will contribute to the father development of india, sharpish volume colleagues. Now we are really just curious, western silicon out there with indian nationalist. You now for to be 9, please. Ah, just recon misters. Mike was sent to dr. Joe sinker of ministers in sir, you are accompanied by a large delegation oper come representative from various ministries and departments. So we take it at a signal that the indias intent or continue or enhance cooperation with lisa, a dresser in all the spheres, despite all kind of challenges and so called traits. You know, i am accompanied by a large and senior delegation because we have a very substantial and time tested relationship with russia. And as i explained in my remarks in the last few years, ah, under the guidance of our leaders, we have been trying to find ways of expanding this relationship, making it more durable, more sustainable, more balanced. So today when i look back at the discussions, both with minister lovegrove and d p, a montero, are we discussed to areas where, you know, theres a natural convergence of interest between india and russia. And we do so when we do so, we not only serve our national interests, we actually today as major g, 20 economies, we are actually helping to stabilize the World Economy as well. And at this time of great global volatility and uncertainty, i think her, this is a very good thing that we are doing. So im very glad that todays discussions i helped us to move forward on, on many issues. And i felt that the russian side had a similar sentiment in for on, sooner against hooked us.
