Ian Proud was once Britain's man in Moscow. A career diplomat of 24 years, he got to look in directly upon the withering relationship between the United Kingdom and Russia, in the crucial period from 2014 until 2019. In fact, he rebuilt embassy staffing structures following the mass expulsion after the March 2018 Salisbury nerve agent attack.Since then, Proud has been outspokenly critical on questions of UK-Russia relations. This week, Philip and Andrew are trying to get into the British diplomat mindset as relations approach a crucial juncture. ***Be excellent to each other, and -Get us on Twitter. https://www.x.com/multipolarpodOn Patreon. https://www.patreon.com/multipolarity Or on our Substack. https://substack.com/@multipolaritypod

News roundup for this week! Alert and prayers be firm ! Amen

We'll also round-up this week's cyber-attack news, so let's make a start.These are the links to the principal documents mentioned in the podcast:Alexander Dyck, Adair Morse & Luigi Zingales, How pervasive is corporate fraud?AUSTRAC, AUSTRAC cements partnership with United Kingdom to intensify fight against financial crime.Capital Markets Institute, How Pervasive is Corporate Fraud?

The International Monetary Fund says that economic growth worldwide will exceed their previous expectations. The IMF did have some bad news for the UK: Their economic outlook looks worse than Russia, which has been heavily targeted with economic sanctions. And, Tunisians voted in a runoff parliamentary election over the weekend. Only 11% of eligible voters actually came out to vote — the same level of participation in the first round of voting. Also, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken traveled to meet Palestinian Authority head, Mahmud Abbas in Ramallah on Tuesday. Many residents say they have low expectations about this visit helping to improve their quality of life. Plus, we hear about the challenges of supporting displaced Ukrainians.

*) Xi warns Biden not to 'play with fire' amid tensions over Taiwan US President Joe Biden and his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping have agreed to schedule their first in-person summit as leaders. The decision came during a phone call, where Xi warned the United States not to "play with fire" in Taiwan. In response, Biden reassured Xi that the US policy, known as "strategic ambiguity", was unchanged — essentially favouring the status quo in Taiwan. Tensions are escalating over the self-ruled island that China considers its own, and there are fears that Xi could ultimately order an invasion to impose Beijing's rule. *) ​​UK: Russia puts Wagner fighters on frontline duty in eastern Ukraine Russia has tasked Wagner Group mercenaries to hold sections of the frontline in Ukraine in a sign it is running short of combat infantry, Britain's Ministry of Defence has said. The ministry said in an intelligence update that Russia is relying more on the forces from its private military company for frontline duties rather than their usual work in special operations. However, the ministry said the mercenaries are unlikely to make up for the loss of regular infantry units or alter the trajectory of Russia's military campaign in Ukraine. *) Venezuela, Colombia agree to reestablish diplomatic relations Venezuela and Colombia will reestablish diplomatic relations at an ambassadorial level when leftist President-elect Gustavo Petro takes office in Bogota in August. Venezuela's minister of foreign relations, Carlos Faria, hosted Colombia's Foreign Minister-elect Alvaro Leyva in San Cristobal on Thursday. Leyva read out a statement saying that both men had "expressed their desire to progress…towards the gradual normalisation of bilateral relations." Relations between the two countries were broken in 2019 after Colombian President Ivan Duque refused to recognise the reelection of his Venezuelan counterpart Nicolas Maduro. *) Two foreign climbers ascending Pakistan's peaks announced dead An Australian and a Canadian mountain climber died last week in northern Pakistan while attempting to scale K2, the world's second-highest mountain. Pakistan's The Dawn newspaper reported earlier this week that the two climbers had been spotted between Camp 1 and Camp 2 on K2 after they both went missing on July 19 in separate incidents. K2, on the Chinese-Pakistani border in the Karakorum Range, has one of the deadliest records, with most climbers dying on the descent, where the slightest mistake can trigger an avalanche and become fatal. *) UN resolution recognises right to clean, healthy environment The UN General Assembly has overwhelmingly approved a resolution recognising the right to a clean, healthy and sustainable environment. The 193-member world body voted 161-0 on the resolution on Thursday, a move that Secretary-General Antonio Guterres called “historic.” The resolution calls on all nations, international organisations and businesses to scale up efforts to ensure a healthy environment for all people.

*) UK: Russia aims to take #Mariupol before V-Day The UK believes Russia wants to take the port city of Mariupol and its vast steel mill before it marks Victory Day on Monday. “The renewed effort by Russia to secure Azovstal and complete the capture of Mariupol is likely linked to the upcoming 9 May Victory Day commemorations”, the British Defence Ministry said in a daily intelligence briefing. Whilst Ukrainian resistance continues in Azovstal, Russian losses will continue to build and frustrate their operational plans in southern Donbass, it added. *) Almost 500 civilians evacuated from Mariupol: Ukraine Staying with Ukraine, Kiev has said almost 500 civilians have been evacuated from Mariupol and its besieged Azovstal steel plant since a UN-led rescue operation began. "We have managed to evacuate almost 500 civilians," Andriy Yermak (An-dree Year-mak), who heads Volodymyr Zelenskyy's office, said. The United Nations had said that a new convoy would evacuate civilians from the "bleak hell" of the factory, which has become the last pocket of resistance in the southern port city. *) UK PM Johnson loses control of traditional strongholds in local elections British Prime Minister Boris Johnson's Conservative Party has lost control of traditional strongholds in London and suffered losses elsewhere in local elections. Early results showed that Johnson's party was ousted in Wandsworth - a low-tax Conservative stronghold since 1978. The Tories also said they had lost control of the borough of Barnet, which has been held by the party in all but two elections since 1964. "This is a warning shot from Conservative voters," said Daniel Thomas, the Tory leader of Barnet council. *) Researchers find animal virus in deceased man's implanted pig heart US researchers trying to learn what killed the first person to receive a heart transplant from a pig have discovered the organ harboured an animal virus. University of Maryland doctors said they found an unwelcome surprise, viral DNA inside the pig heart. They did not find signs that this bug was causing an active infection. But a major worry about animal-to-human transplants is the risk that it could introduce new kinds of infections to people. 57-year-old David Bennett died in March, two months after the groundbreaking experimental transplant. And, finally... *) Asian Games postponed as China battles Covid The Asian Games due to take place in China in September have been postponed indefinitely as Beijing battles a resurgence of Covid cases. "The Olympic Council of Asia has announced that the 19th Asian Games will be postponed," said a statement on the official Games website. No reason was given for the delay, but China is racing to extinguish its largest outbreak of Covid-19 since the early days of the pandemic. #RussiaVDay #UKElection #OrganTransplant #PigHeart #AsianGames

Professor Michael Bradshaw, Professor of Global Energy at the University of Warwick Business School, and Maria Pastukhova, Senior Policy Advisor in the energy and climate change think tank E3G's Berlin office, discuss with Dr Neil Melvin, Director RUSI International Security Studies, how efforts to tackle climate change and manage the energy transition away from carbon resources are affecting the geoeconomics of the UK–Russia relationship, and consider the potential for joint work in this area as the bilateral relationship has become increasingly confrontational.

This episode examines the re-emergence of the concept of strategic stability as a means of managing security relations between Russia and the transatlantic community and avoiding war. Following Moscow's annexation of Crimea in 2014 and its military intervention in eastern Ukraine, the confrontation between Russia and NATO has become increasingly dangerous. In 2021, Presidents Putin and Biden launched a dialogue to manage rising tensions focused on promoting strategic stability in their relations. In this episode, Professor Andrey Kortunov, Director General of the Russian International Affairs Council, and Professor Malcolm Chalmers, Deputy Director-General of RUSI, discuss with Dr Neil Melvin, Director RUSI International Security Studies, the value that ideas of strategic stability have for addressing growing nuclear and conventional tensions, and consider how the UK and Russia might improve their own bilateral security relationship through a strategic stability dialogue.

Sean and Jacquie are joined in this segment by Afshin Rattansi, British journalist and host of RT's "Going Underground," to discuss the release of the much-anticipated UK Russia Report, the flimsy evidence around alleged Russian interference in UK politics, and the worrisome prospect of British intelligence gaining greater influence in public life.

The Duran Quick Take: Episode 605. UK Russia Report, a PATHETIC DEEP STATE attempt to delegitimize Brexit vote. The Duran's Alex Christoforou and Editor-in-Chief Alexander Mercouris discuss the UK parliament's cross-party Intelligence and Security Committee report that investigated "Russian influence" in UK politics and the Brexit vote. The 55-page document admits that there was no evidence of Russian interference in the Brexit vote, but UK MPs and UK media are still using the report to suggest that the Brexit vote was rigged by...Vladimir Putin.

We firstly speak to Dr. Robert Gallo, co-founder of the Global Virus Network, director of the Institute of Human Virology at the University of Maryland School of Medicine. He discusses the similarities between HIV and the coronavirus and why it always meant ‘herd immunity’ would be a futile endeavor, why the Oxford Covid-19 vaccine is promising compared to other vaccines, the importance of a vaccine focusing on the T-cell instead of the spike, why a Polio vaccine could massively reduce coronavirus mortality rates as we search for a specific coronavirus vaccine and more! Next, we speak to consultant editor of the Daily Mail Andrew Pierce about the newly-released Russia Report in the UK. He discusses how the report didn’t live up to many people’s expectations regarding Russian influence in the Brexit referendum, why the report was suppressed and wasn’t released earlier, why the new committee chairman, Julian Lewis, may aim to be a thorn in the side of Boris Johnson, allegations by the UK press that Jeremy Corbyn was Russia’s ‘useful idiot’ and why it was ultimately proven false, the Conservative Party voting down an amendment to protect the NHS from being up for sale in a US trade deal, worsening UK-China relations and more! Finally, Going Underground’s social media producer, Farhaan Ahmed, speaks to fashion icon and activist Vivienne Westwood about the persecution of Julian Assange by the US, which seeks to extradite and jail the WikiLeaks founder for 175 years. She discusses her stunt outside the Old Bailey, where she got into a giant bird cage in support of Julian Assange, what it means and allegations that Assange is a Russian agent.

Elena West Sensei is originally from Russia, and now living in England. West Sensei has been training for over three decades in Jodo, Iaido, Kendo, Yoga, and is a certified massage therapist. I was really looking forward to this conversation, as the topic “How budo helps you survive and thrive through personal loss”, is so valuable to all of us, regardless of experience or rank. The interview blew away my expectations, and I’m sure you’ll take away some important lessons around community, parenting, leadership, and overcoming adversity.

Xander tells us the story of his leap of faith, arriving at the airport on a tourist visa and discuss his journey to Principal and his award of OBE for UK/Russia cultural relations.

This week, Russia mania has taken over the UK General Election agenda, as both parties revert to hurling ‘pro-Kremlin’ accusations at each other in an attempt to extract the last remaining drops of political capital from an increasingly dilapidated Russiagate narrative. Among the items being thrown in this cross-bench brawl is the accusation by Labour MPs that PM Boris Johnson is intentionally suppressing a new report by Parliament’s Intelligence and Security Committee (ISC) on alleged ‘Russian interference‘ in British politics, and specifically in the Brexit referendum. Interestingly, one of the report’s star witnesses is none other than the infamous Christopher Steele from the notorious UK-based private intelligence firm, Orbis. On Wednesday Nov. 6th, RT International spoke with 21WIRE editor Patrick Henningsen about the ridiculous political circus that’s unfolding, as opponents ramp-up old Skripal and ‘antisemitism’ smears against Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn, and also why both parties might prefer to obscure this new ‘Russia’ report due to its lack of substance.

In today's podcast, we hear that if your nation's team was playing a World Cup match, you probably weren't visiting dodgy websites. Concerns mount in the UK that Russia may be readying a long-expected attack on British infrastructure and holding it until the Cup is decided. The Australian National University is hacked in an apparent espionage attempt. Data breaches at Timehop, DomainFactory, and Macy's. Russia calls for international cooperation. The Marines say it wasn't them on that dating app. Malek Ben Salem from Accenture Labs with tips on GDPR compliance. 

The icy winds from the East have been an apt meteorological metaphor for UK-Russia relations. Since the Salisbury spy incident, and the immediate pointing of blame at the Kremlin, diplomats have been kicked out of both countries. But that's unlikely to be the end of the matter. All eyes are on what happens next. What would be the most moral course of action to take? Should the UK pursue the strongest possible sanctions and perhaps even refuse to compete in this year's World Cup in Russia? Some believe that unless we take a firm moral stand we put our own citizens at risk and we let down the Russian people. Others urge caution, believing sanctions will mostly hurt ordinary people and will do little to change the regime's behaviour. Aside from tit-for-tat punishment, it has been suggested that Putin's alleged antics with chemical weapons are bringing us closer to a "Cold War 2.0". After the Berlin Wall fell almost thirty years ago, we hoped for progress towards a more peaceful world. Was that a delusion? It could be argued that the world is more dangerous now than it was when power-blocs followed the rules of realpolitik, and everyone knew where they stood. Even then, we came perilously close to mutual destruction - so should we press on now with the search for a new and better kind of international moral order? Witnesses are Simon Jenkins, Dr Rebecca Johnson, Mark Rice-Oxley and Prof Robert Service. Producer: Dan Tierney.
