Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov has been on the diplomatic offensive while visiting Egypt, rejecting allegations Moscow is to blame for the current global food crisis

Speaking in Cairo, Lavrov says western nations are distorting the truth about the impact of sanctions on food security, and believes the rules of the world are written by the West…

The foreign minister will ow travel to three African nations to rally support amid anger over the war.

Combined, Russia and Ukraine supply more than 40% of Africa’s wheat, and its these countries which are suffering the most under the current situation.

In an article published by local newspapers, Lavrov says Moscow has always “sincerely supported Africans in their struggle for freedom from the colonial yoke”.

Speaking at a press conference, he says some Western countries have only attempted to solve the Ukrainian grain issue, and are blocking out Russia.

Australia’s multimillion-dollar campaign to attract Hollywood productions to its shores appears to be paying off.

The allure of Australia lies not only in its picturesque locations but also in its competitive financial incentives.

The government offers generous rebates and tax breaks to international productions, making it an attractive proposition for filmmakers looking to maximise their budgets.

Despite the recent intake of Hollywood productions down under such as ‘The Fall Guy’ and ‘Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga’, Aussie independents are still finding the space to carve their own creative path.

Rob Fantozzi joined the program to discuss the latest in Hollywood, and showcased his own upcoming project – ‘Omerta‘. #featured

American home prices are rising at faster pace now than in the last 20-years.

A recent analysis reveals a jaw dropping surge in the cost of American homes.

Since the start of 2020, U.S. home prices have surged 47% easily outstripping the gains seen in recent decades.

On top of that, home price growth so far this decade is on the verge of surpassing all the growth seen in the 2000s.

Many experts believe this decade’s housing market frenzy was ignited by a perfect storm — the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic triggering an unprecedented rush among buyers.

Tom Hutchens, the Executive Vice President of Production at Angel Oak Mortgage Solutions joins Veronica Dudo to discuss.
