so the press retreated in effect to the caravel hotel. and many of the stories mention what we received was from the caravel. mm hm. the u. s. syncs un security council intervention over ukraine is joe biden, promises the decisive response. if russia in bay, russia says it's live with little room for optimism, was insisting it doesn't want to go to war. ah, we want a condo harbor when i'm come all santa maria, this is the world news from alger zebra. bettina foster, his new military ruler, is bound to restore constitutional order,

but only when certain conditions are met and honduras sways in its 1st female president. but problems within her party mean a rocky start, was america ah, to let someone developments in ukraine and you as president joe biden has reiterated to his ukranian, count about washington's readiness to respond decisively if russia invites you, cried. however, the diplomatic route is still being pursued. the u. s. is also requested a un security council meeting on monday to discuss what it calls russia's threatening behavior. now diplomatic get at the james base starts us off looking at whether there is still a chance to avoid a military confrontation. hello, in recent weeks, have seen an unprecedented flurry of diplomacy. efforts have intensified as the threat of war grows. a war many believe could now be imminent and very dangerous.

meanwhile, troops, tanks and weapons continue to mess in eastern europe. russian forces surround ukraine, nato is reinforcing its members the board of russia. while some members of the alliance, but notably not germany ascending anti tank and anti aircraft missiles to ukraine. so is there now a way to stop this march to war? then juergen, son is a stone years and basset to the united nations. his country is a neighbor to russia and until the end of last year served on the security council, there's always room comp compromise. but the question is, does russia want to compromise? because if you look at the demand that russia has put forward to united states and nato, then just reading through them, it's absolutely obvious that the soul is just nonsense. it's deliberately grafted in a way that there couldn't be any compromise the leader of another nato nation. again,

with a border with russia, norwegian prime minister, yona sca stora has told me despite the difficulties, no efforts should be spared to find a diplomatic solution. i simply state and i observe up now there are talks going on . there's a channel of communication, and i would appeal to those who sit those tables, use those channels up a maximum. and on the nato side and the euro atlantic site, i believe there is a very strong unity on the principles and very care messages in the communication. not sure, the problem is that russia's foreign minister, so gay lab, ralph has made his country's demands in public and in writing. russia says ukraine must never join nato and the poland and the 3 baltic states which will nato members must be allowed to have troops or weapons other nato countries on their soil alone and producing and boom. the main question is our clear message that we consider further nato expansion to the east and weapons deployment,

which can threaten the russian federation. unacceptable. one expert on the region warns that can only be a compromise if russia tables a new proposal, something that's more palatable to nato. the best compromise would come in russia put something else on the table that the west was willing and able to provide. if russia looks at the general state of unity between europe and the united states, if it looks the kind of economic measures that have been promised in case of an incursion and decided that cost didn't work, that the need to maintain business and economic ties to europe it's important enough for where russia wants to be in the future that jeopardizing that isn't worth which some experts believe that president putin may not have decided yet whether he's going to invade ukraine. the 1st meeting of the un security council on the current crisis is expected on monday, and russia were looking for the support of china. and that's why some diplomats

believe the russians may wait to launch military action until the event that china has so much about the beijing winter olympics is over. in mid february, james bays al jazeera at the united nations. so that's the diplomatic side of things. now, more withhold update made, she is in ukraine, actually speaking to people in the southeast and not a you poll. we heard all of them. a lot of people, there is a feeling that, that the moment really, the whole thing is going between russia and us. and ukraine wants to make sure that they remain the center of that conversation. and certainly not a sort of byproduct of that. all. that is a sentiment we also heard among many people, they said at the end of the day, this is a fight that's a crisis is going on between the 2 superpowers. do us and russia. it's about really expanding influence in this part of the world. and ukraine is want to make sure

that they are not a consequence of that, but that's actually the real threat then living under is something that's going to be dealt with. on to other news became also where the military leaders says the nation will only return to constitutional order when the conditions are right. the tenant colonel paul on re dominga address the nation for the 1st time since soldiers to pose the civilian government. on monday, he has called on people to unite and to take up arms to regain the country sovereignty for him armed fighters. because hark now with more than the capital wanted to get haunted by those that didn't survive husband's fathers, but also brothers as young as 12 and 70 year old grandfather's all killed by fighters affiliated to isolate in the northern region of law, whom i had mouse gunman encircled their village and shot them alt says, you got my mu now. the women and children were spared, but carry with them an unshakable fear of their returning homes that i cannot go

launched from who the territory in yemen, against targets in the way e. this is a not unexpected. the u. s. issues are the sorts of travel warnings to its citizens for countries all around the world all the time because it feels that it has a primordial duty to keep americans out of harm's way. it shouldn't have any will impact on the relationship between the 2 countries. earlier in the week after a both of these a who the attacks on to us on targets inside the u. e. the u. s. was a very quick to say that it was a continuing its strong defense relationship with the emerald t. a military providing training and material to help them intercept any possible attacks from who the territory. but of course, the bigger thing that the u. s. government is concerned about is the fact that the civil war in yemen has not been resolved. and it is trying to push for

was stepping down. i think he's a model public servant in a time of great division in this country, brier was nominated to the court by democratic president bill clinton in 1994. as he reflected on his years on the bench briar concluded, the united states is a complicated nation. we know it's a kind of miracle. when you sit there and see all those people in front of you, it people that are so different than what they find. and yet they've decided to help solve their major differences under law briar plans to step down this summer. when the supreme court completes its term, his replacement biden affirms will fulfill a campaign pledge to make history person i will nominee, be some of the extraordinary qualifications, character, experience and integrity. and that person will be the 1st black woman ever

nominated united states supreme court. long overdue, my biden says he's vetting candidates and we'll announce his nominee next month. one that won't alter the ideological makeup of the court. that currently leans conservative, but the decision to nominate a qualified black woman is deliberate. biden's, eager to please black voters whose support he relied on in the 2020 election. the timing is no accident with mid term elections for the u. s. congress coming up in november biden needs to deliver something to motivate voters. he needs a when, because already to be quite honest, ah, present, buying has not been able to get his agenda pass with the policing him, reform the george lloyd bill. he's not been able to get any agenda pass with respect to voting rights. the new justice is expected to be younger and could sit on the court for decades. the senate has promised to take up biden's nomination

quickly. president biden wants a quick confirmation of his nominee. well, democrats still controlled the senate after congressional elections in november. that's no guarantee republicans could take control and block any future by denomination to the supreme court. kimberly hell kit al jazeera, the white house, the british prime minister bars johnson has confirmed. he doesn't turn to release a complete report into the parties at his residence during locked on top civil servants. soon. gray has been investigating social gatherings and number 10, downing street, allegedly in breach of corona virus restrictions of the time. police are also conducting their own inquiry into potential breaches. are you delaying the gray ripples? absolutely, no, but you'll just have to i'm afraid you've got to let the independent inquiries go on when. when do you think it will be published?

i wish i congress any more than what i said yesterday by that i'm really published in full uncles dallas has been cancelled with a poland. new border war will do much to stop people crossing illegally from going to ruth. it started construction on the huge structure promised after reminder, and crisis on the use eastern flank last year. but those meant to be deterred by it said i have little choice but to try anyway. and how reports are because niche in eastern poland once complete in the summer, poland wall will be a 186 kilometers long. almost half the length of the borderline with bell roofs. will it stop almost daily, attempt by refugees and migrants to make the illegal crossing? probably not according to a kurdish immigration lawyer who spoke to al jazeera, especially if, as he is widely alleged, they continue to get help from bella. russian border guards actually all is not,

is not useful and the knows that the guns can find and as a way, and they may be, as you know, as i told, is that this helps them to cross the border. and of course, they find another place. raga has put us in touch with these are occurred as refugee who, with his family, including young children, is among hundreds living in a warehouse on the bell russian side. i asked nisa if he was aware that poland is building a wall to keep people like him out. good. now. what can we do? we have to wait. we can go back to our country when not part of the political problem between belarus and poland. we just want to cross the border and get to safety in the european union. it's a familiar story told by desperate people fleeing circumstances they can no longer tolerate. they may be among them purely economic migrants as well,

but poland makes little distinction, putting hundreds into asylum detention camps and simply pushing others back. the crisis that flared last autumn is now much reduced. thousands were allegedly lou to the bellows border on the false promise of an easy crossing. it was both a cynical attempt by bella ruth, to destabilize parts of the e. u, and also a political opportunity for the polish government. ponens wall being built at vast expense and partly through forests that are a unesco protected world. heritage site is a pretty extraordinary answer to what is now a fairly minimal problem. is it worth it to stop small numbers of people trying to cross the border from bella? luce, well, it is if you are a right wing populous government because of the state, ron tv, news bulletins report the broadly popular claim that poland is doing its bit to protect the external borders of the from uncontrolled migration. public opposition

to the government's policies does exist. we just would like to let people know that maybe not everyone in poland is against people coming here from other parts of the world. and we are here here for them. but their voices barely heard. jonah hall al jazeera in eastern podium. the european union is launching legal action against china, the world trade organization. the reason centers on tensions between china and e. u . member, if you a new bilious, allowed to taiwan to open a diplomatic off as last year, bearing the name taiwan, and not chinese type pay. beijing considered taiwan to be part of its territory. now, the e. u, as accusing china of holding up exports from lithuania at its border. these measures are a threat to the integrity of the eel single market sale. fix that into your trade

on you supply chains and say, hell, a negative effect on your industry. this is why they are stepping forwards to defend use rights. and today we are bringing the case to the w to to me entered in the when he should under warranty. the issue between china and lithuania is a political one not and he cannot make one. when the situation is the result of lithuania acting in bad faith, that hurts chinese interests. it's not a matter of china exerting pressure unless wayne ya. it's a bilateral issue between the 2 countries. not something between china and the new . the when he to find the record inflation and soaring price as a leaving many shop is in turkey, struggling just to make ends meet. the central bank is forecasting a 23 percent inflation rate this year, but that's not before peaks at an estimated 55 percent in the coming months. since i'm concerned with the report from it stumble high inflation is

a major talking point for all turks. the layer has lost nearly half of its value within the past year. as a central bank may steep cuts to interest rate. that also looks, policy cost prices to store, including for energy and food, such as the ingredients for a turkish breakfast. to make one kilo of this culture cheese, you need 11 liters of raw milk. the price of milk doubled with the increase on electricity. natural gas prices are rising, our regular customers cut their consumption. nearly 40 percent turkey is inflation rates rocketed to 36 percent in december after a series of interest rate cuts demanded by president treasure type a drum. it's the highest inflation rate since the election 20 years ago. to marcia, we used to buy in kilos last year. now in grams for more than half of our retirement salaries are being spent on gas, electricity phone bills on the 1st day,

high prices are like with the domain of focus of stock market attention. the central bank is best for the seeking to rebuild foreign reserves, which fell more than 60 percent from mid december. so just $7500000000.00. years of further inflation rises in the coming month. terrified turkey manage the latest increase to the minimum wage, and the pensions are not enough to make ends meet. the central bank forecasts and inflation rate of 23 percent this here. some analyst thing that's optimistic and expect wars to come. alma, we manage somehow. we buy the cheapest things, but it's very difficult for larger families to manage. i don't know how things will work. responding to the economic challenges, government leaders in on cur, have implemented a series of measures during the past month to persuade savers,

banks, and companies to hold more lira, rather than foreign currency. those measures studies to lira for now, but many fear the hopes of lower inflation have already left the station and they'll soon be paying an even bigger price for turkey is financial turmoil. so, you know, because solo else's serious stumble ah, it's half costly are, these are the top stories you as president joe biden has reiterated to ukrainian counterpart washington's readiness to respond decisively if russia invade ukraine, the u. s. has requested a public un security council meeting on monday to discuss what it calls russia's threatening behavior or should foreign ministry. those is the idea of the war with ukraine is unacceptable. but another official from the ministry want a nuclear missile crisis with the u. s. is inevitable.
