Ukraine is pushing for the global ban of RT after a presenter called for the drowning of Ukrainian children

Kyiv is describing Russian state broadcasters as a catalyst for genocide, after one of RT’s (Russia Today) presenters called for children to be drowned.

RT presenter Anton Krasovsky said children who criticised Russia should be “thrown straight into a river”.

Krasovsky is a journalist, and pro-war commentator who has been with RT for two years.

He has been sanctioned by the European Union and suspended for his derogatory comments.

Anton Krasovsky has been suspended for his comments.

RT’s editor-in-chief, Margarita Simonya, described the comments as “disgusting”, and said Krasovsky’s views were not shared by the network.

Krasovsky made the comments while responding to claims of Ukrainian children telling a Russian author they would live better lives if Moscow did not occupy their country.

“They should have been drowned in the Tysyna (river). “Just drown those children, drown them,” he said.

Ukraine’s Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba said “governments which have still not banned RT must watch this excerpt.”

“Aggressive genocide incitement (we will put this person on trial for it), which has nothing to do with freedom of speech. Ban RT worldwide.”

Moscow denies its forces have committed war crimes, and maintains the war in Ukraine is a special military operation.

Russian state-media has remained in support of the war in Ukraine.

Despite the fall in oil prices, OPEC and its allies policy decisions can have a major impact on oil prices.

 
In May 2023, the total number of rigs drilling for oil and gas was already down by around 7% when compared with its peak in December 2022.

Slower drilling activity eventually translates into slower production growth, creating a delay of up to 6 months.

In the meantime, high levels of production are keeping inventories elevated, especially in the case of gas, which is keeping prices under pressure.

OPEC and its allies are weighing the possibility of further oil supply cuts, despite the fall in oil prices.

OPEC+ and its allies led by Russia, pumps around 40% of the world’s crude.

So, its policy decisions can have a major impact on oil prices.

Bloomberg’s Senior Oil and Gas Analyst Fernando Valle joins us to discuss.
