i included the bipartisan infrastructure law for families, whether eyes or homes are being delivered. my administration is making $3200000000.00 available from this legislation. provide up to $6500.00 direct payment for working class families to be able to wear the rise their homes, save the money to keep them warm in the winter and coolness summer. it's a direct grant this program in brown for a while. and in the past is delivered to families average families, another $327.00 in savings when they're weather. but now we have the ability to reach 10 times as many families because of the legislation we're already past and in the legislation. in addition to that, we're also setting new standards to boost fuel economies. for new vehicles sold in america. within 5 years, we're going to travel 10 miles more on every single gallery we have. because the average sure economy of 49 miles per gallon is going to be required. that means

hundreds of dollars in savings for families. the pump also said is similar standards for appliances from your air conditioner, your microwave, your refrigerator washers dryers. she's one of $100.00 axes, were take you to save the average family, $100.00 per year in utility bills. on the bottom line is this between wrapping up ramping up production in the short term and driving down demand. in the long term, we can free ourselves from our dependence on imported oil from across the world. look, i know guys, gas prices are painful, i get it. my plan is going to help ease that paint today. saved right again against tomorrow. i'm open ideas of strengths on the plan, but i will not be put off and put it on hold is claimed delivered true long term energy defense in america. once for all, i'm going to continue to use every told of my disposal to protect you from putting

price. it's not time for politics. america's market can afford that, right? so let's meet this moment together. remember, we're the only nation that has turned every crisis ever faced into an opportunity. we have a crisis price at the pump. so let's show some true strength of this nation. show our unity or resolve or innovative spirit in america. and come out of this long term, much better off. we stand up to the bullies of the world, the autocrats and dictators. we stand up for those who are, who are ready to unite, unite with us, united states america. may god bless you and may god protect our troops. thank you . the please be for bye bye. that's an open question. there's a lot of speculation. but he seems to be, i'm not saying this with

a certain. he seems to be self isolated. and there's some indication that he has fired or put under house arrest some of his advisors. but i don't want to put too much stock in at this time because we don't have that much hard evidence. this how much you have to make the nation will reduce gas prices and when american changes, that's a really important question and there's no firm answer to a price is already came down. when that was announced ahead of time buying was going to release so much and so much energy. so many barrels of oil problems pro are already comes out. my guess is we'll see it come down, continue to come down. but how far down i don't think anyone can tell. there's going to be a slight delay because if you go out there and you're a gas station and you purchased x amount of gas at a certain price,

you're not going to lower the price of the pump until you're able to get back what you invested. and that i'm talking matter, i think you know, days, weeks, but it's hard to tell. the other thing is exact, but it will come down and it could come down fairly significantly. it could come down better part of united thing from $0.10 to $0.35 a gallon. it's unknown at this point. i'm also waiting to see whether or not our allies exactly how many, how many barrels they release from their supplies. now, my guess is it could be as high somewhere between 30000000 to 50000000 barrels. and the higher the number, the more likely the price. thank you all. the i this is i'll just 0. if you're joining us this news, our we've just been listening to the us president joe biden's remarks on the raising oil prices bite and announced that he spoke rather off of quote the pain at

the pump. and he did announce millions of barrels of oil from reserves to be released to try and lower soaring crude prices over in the u. s. bite and says that it's historic use of us oil stockpile will ease the pain for americans. let's get analysis with my kind of joining us from washington dc to break down for us exactly what biden had to say. and what his plan is like. well, there's a lot to and pick here, it's a multi pronged plan to ease the oil crisis, both domestically and globally in the wake of the russian invasion of ukraine. first of all, that release of a 1000000 barrels a day from the strategic petroleum fund for a maximum of 6 months. this is a massive amount of oil that will go into the markets, both domestic and globally likely to increase global oil reserves by some one

percent. so this is a massive amount. it's also significant that this is being done says the president in conjunction with the u. s as allies, so this is going to be done by other western nations and other nations who in terms of increasing the global oil reserves, which would perhaps lower the oil price. this is one part of the biden plan. the other part of the bio and plan is to make the us more energy efficient. he says, the nation has a history of seizing opportunity in crisis. this is what he's attempting to do. he wants to now drive his clean energy plan as a way of reducing oil prices. he wants to invoke the defense production act to achieve this aim, to be able to ease the supply chains that have led to a shortage of things like batteries which have hinted at the development of electric cars for example. but very importantly to he launched a virtually unprecedented attack on some oil producers who he accused of seeking to

profit from the situation. and to this end, he's proposing that congress enact legislation that penalized oil producers who have leased federal land all areas of c and are not producing on it. this is a foot to be unprecedented action. and we've already heard from the speak of the house that this is something that the house will act on, use it or lose it is her call. so a multi pronged quotes from president biden. with the aim, he says, of reducing the prices at the plans for us citizens within the next 2 weeks, it could appear. he's pointed out that oil prices have already dropped in the news that there is going to be this massive amounts of strategic oil made available. but he says, this is something that is going to be short term in terms of the release of the extra petroleum. but also long term is looking to completely remake the u. s.

energy industry. that's a very ambitious undertaking and we'll have more analysis on this a little later in the news. our for the time being, my kind of thank you so much for that reporting from the white house for biden's remarks follow the russian president vladimir putin, the ultimatum that he's issued to the so called unfriendly states. he wants payment for russian gas and rubles as a friday or have their contract canceled. hooton's says for him, buyers will be required to open accounts with russian banks. the decree could pose a serious issue for europe, which gets around 40 percent, if it's gas from there. germany says they're being blackmailed by the kremlin. u. i find an order that establishes the rule of trade with natural gas with the so called hostile states. we are offering the clear system that they have to open accounts and roubles, and payments have to be made through these accounts from the 1st of april. if they don't, we will consider it a non fulfillment of contract because nobody sells us anything for free. and we will not do charity so their existing contracts will be suspended when they use

them, as robinson has somehow better has more from moscow for president put in this is a moment to warn unfriendly countries. a list which includes the u. s. b, u and many other states that they might have to face difficult times ahead of the continue to provide weapons to the ukraine and continue imposing economic sanctions on moscow. now, president putin asked the center back to work out the details of a new mechanism under which russia will only accept renewable the local currency for the supplies of natural gas to those countries. they do understand that this is going to be a difficult step forward for those countries. we have been saying that we've been doing contracts with the russians. and under the terms of those contracts, we will either paying in dollars or in euro's and these contract, this movie is

a breach of the existing contract. but for the russians, the concerns of the brushed aside saying that we are acting with religious misty because you have been imposing sanctions on us. and by doing this, putting is trying to tell the you in particular, that is about time for a to change the spot. it is towards moscow now to the situation on the ground in ukraine, and there's hope that a temporary cease fire will give thousands of civilians the chance to leave ukraine's besieged city of mario pole. the western city of the v is providing help to the huge influx of people displaced by the fighting, including thousands of children. run mcbride reports the in eastern ukraine. the town of trustee in it has been retaken by ukrainian troops. but with much of it lying in ruins, the russians departed after a month of heavy fighting, while many people took shelter for the thank you with that,

we have spent 30 days in the basement with small children who've been shaking until now. the russians left behind military hardware and allegations of widespread abuse . pulled them got little so they came to our houses, intimidated people and kicked them out of their homes. they took everything from us, mobile phones, guns, food, everything got all set in the past week. ukrainian forces have been re capturing towns and villages around the capital keeps while russian forces have also been withdrawing or been pushed back in the north, east and south west. it's thought the russians will now concentrate efforts in the east of the country and mount a final push to take the perceived city of mary you paul, efforts to open a humanitarian corridor into the ruined city. continue. the international committee of the red cross says, in addition to getting people out of mary, you, paul, it's vitally important for the corridor to be used to get humanitarian aid in the i

. c r c says it prepared to lead the effort, but only if the 2 warring sides can guarantee the safe passage of the convoy. the western city of levine is providing refuge for thousands of people who have fled, the fighting around cave and other cities further east. people like all her and the 2 children who now attend regular activity sessions provided by this children's library. oh, thank you right now. this is the only and best way to keep my kids and myself busy to keep them distracted. this class is being led by a teacher who was forced to flee a town near the front line in the east. lovett by telephone. they are happy they are playing and their joy is my joy. art sessions here are aimed at tackling the trauma they may have experienced from the fighting president flooded me, a putin invariably portrayed as the villain. elsewhere in this library,

volunteers were con, camouflage netting for ukrainian forces across the border and the neighboring in region of brianne sc. returning paratroopers are given a hero's welcome instead of pulling forces back from the fighting. as moscow has previously announced, western observers suspect russia might simply be rotating units and preparing for a new phase in this war. rub mcbride al jazeera, the v. let's get an update with iran con who's joining us from the ukranian capital . keep him run over to you to very big explosions in the last 4 hours. the 1st one to place around 4 o'clock local. happen not too far away from here. and then one again, about an hour ago, or both in the same area there of those explosions took place in the center of kiva . that's the 1st i'm certainly, since i've been reporting that her artillery or missiles or rockers were not

entirely sure what type of ordinances use has come this close to the city center. now this all comes after the russians on tuesday said they were going to relieve the pressure on the cave because they understood that there were decision makers in place by decision makers, them in the government, frankly. so the fact that this is now happened in the happened twice in the space of a few hours, is very disconcerting for many, we don't know what building has been had. there's lots of speculation on social media, but the fact that we weren't allowed to go to the site of the explosion, which we have been able to do in the past, suggest that it's a sensitive location. but this all comes up like i say, m as the ukrainians are very worried about what the russians are actually up to. and this has been backed up by the nato secretary general ian stanton burg, who's actually said a withdrawal is taking place from key. but he sees it as much more as of it

repositioning a regrouping and perhaps even a re supply for a new phase of the war. whether that comes to keep or whether they're going to concentrate in the east and in the dumbass region is unclear. but he also says that the russians are keeping up their pressure on the keyboard. we're seeing evidence of that almost every single day, every single day since that announcement, there have been showing artillery missiles, rockets hitting the outskirts of key bravo on the other side as well. so there's a lot of pressure still on the capital. aah! and that is concerning residents and but more as a political issue here as well for the ukrainian government every time they seem to make headway with the russians, something like this happens and it's increasingly frustrating them and something they are now talking about publicly. thank you. so much and roxan reporting from keith. so as we mentioned earlier, there is some hope that civilians could be evacuated from mario paul bernard smith

reports from the russian controlled area in the north of the city. there's not much left to fight for in maria pull. but the sound of shelling is constant no one flinches. after 4 weeks of this, they used to it. this part of this port city is now russian controlled, and some people are relieved about that foreign and might be confused if, if the russians they would say starting to, why would you be unhappy that the right number one kid that was there, the they didn't dumbass is russian speaking? ukraine was oppressing us with their language. we launched at 1st no problem, but then there was too much pressure on then in 2013, the as of brigades came and it was chaos. the russians say this city has been destroyed because they, as of a group with neo nazi sympathies,

won't surrender. the battalion is integrated into ukraine's national guard with has some autonomy. the presence here was one of vladimir putin is justifications for launching what he calls a special military operation. ukraine says russia was just looking for an excuse to invade. michael city council says there are around a 170000 people still in the city. most have been without power or running water or much food for a month. hey, you got an indication gale of the need. there is a for humanitarian aid. this place has been under control now. for about a week, this part of mario full and since then this has been turned into an a distribution center with food and freshly cooked meals and some medical assistance. but all of these people from here, they go back to what's left of the house. these people are caught in the middle of one of the most strategically important battles in ukraine. maria post capture

at least a 172 members to the bottom. and session today, which is the numbers required to bring down enron hahn in a vote of no confidence. or the opposition says it has not just those 172 members. but it has a lot more than that. it has the support of the coalition partners that runs funds around funds government had and it also has the support of disgruntled and bees off the budget on there he can solve iran cons party. and now we've been speaking to his body members as well, who say that this is a conspiracy against him? people who are changing their loyalties and the coalition partners who leaving them are because of the bribes that are being offered to them at monetary incentives and incentive for a new set up i being given to them and the opposition and rubbish to all of these came seeing that no money has exchanged hands, and if and ron han and his government has any proof they had shared with the wider world. coming back to the conspiracy that imminent han was talking about, he seeing that there is an international effort to try and de seat enron han. he

pointed out towards the u. s. a. in the united states of august and the ambassador being given a warning of sorts that if im wrong, hon stays in power, it will not be good for pakistan. all of this remains in the balance until the vote, which is expected on sunday. that enron, hans fate is going to be sealed as either the prime minister who is going to remain to continue 5 years in power. or he will go home. international donors taking part in the united nations fundraiser for i've gone austin, have pledged more than $2000000000.00 for the cause. the fall short of the 4400000000, the world body hope to get to 1st a humanitarian catastrophe. un conference is the largest humanitarian appeal for a single country. victoria gate and b reports. every day is a struggle for layla. a husband left afghanistan for a round 5 months ago to look for a job and she hasn't heard from him since she is living in

the international energy agency. welcome to al jazeera sir. so let's get straight into it and talk about practicalities does adding more. crude translates to lower prices at the pump for americans ultimately does supplying demand. so you please supply you push, push demand, push the place down, you improve the balance. and we had a bit of an imbalance in market stocks had been floating, they had started falling before the invasion of ukraine. they've been under pressure since then. so adding supply to the market. so then they will have the price of by a, by how much i mean, would it be a significant amount on, would it help ease the pain, the pain at the pump that consumers are feeling as, as bite and describe it by yes, how did they then the biden was asked the question, are these a conference and provide some kind of an estimate of the range of, of quite mood, but was very cautious to hedge it when one issue,

when you increase supply to, to address apply smoothly. if that is a risk of the sense the centralizing the supply response, you know, normally the price price increases, the best response is the best remedy for price increases because they encourage supply. so we had to start to see a bit of a supply response from shape uses in the us. not so much from opec actually, but shape uses and started to increase. now we had detected more workers in the fields, a significant jump in the number of workers on the, on the pads in the shape facing the permian. and that's where the risk, if you decrease the price, is that you remove the incentive to produce more. but i don't think the, what we wrote today would be enough to do that. well, that's what i want to asking about. apologies, but in fact, i mean, does this, this end to fight descent or discourage, excuse me, other oil producers from actually pumping out more because what we saw on thursday is that opec producers didn't meet. and after just about 10 minutes of deliberation,

they said they're sitting is sticking to the status quo. why to buy? so it's quite remarkable to see the u. s. become the, the spring supplier are pretty much stepping in the saudis shoes in the world that the saudis would have expected to get to take with been expected to take in the past. that's a function i think bodily are of different factors, but suddenly of the fact that the u. s. it becomes such a large producer in the global market is such a huge piece of the, of this about the energy system today, particularly on the oil side. that it's starting to behave very much in the way opec osalla regina, would there been expected to behave and the previous circumstances. the 2nd part of his for his plan that, that by the spoke about is that he's calling for companies over in the u. s. to pay extra if they choose not to use oil wells on land that they lease from the federal government. so he's really putting the onus on companies as well as the some sort of punishment where he's trying to address this applies site. so he's trying to

address the short term, you know, supply gap and push prices down in the short term. but he's trying to, i also guarantee that this most apply longer term. now beyond those 6 month for which his is announced as b r releases and encouraging a producer to produce more is the way to address that longer term. it's, it's gonna take some time. even if investment is put to work today, it's going to take some time for that investment to translate into more supply. so he's, he's clearly trying to address that piece of the, of the issue, but he's doing it in the very coff additional way. ready he's, he's a, he's a congratulated those producers that he said have been responding and, and investing more in production. but he's been casting blame on, on those producers that he says had been returning the profits of their shareholders and, and taking the buckets home and refrained form from increasing production. i'm not

sure the competition or approaches that might one. i don't think do much for him. just a final question for you, since i have you with us. i mean, how long, what is your analysis of the energy markets? how long do you think that energy is going to remain sort of inflationary for? well, you know, it all depends on what's going on, actually in ukraine and what happens with russia on the ground. and that's the key valuable in this issue. but we moving bother question production for the system is, is a big deal. but she has a key supplier specially to europe of both oil and gas. and you can't do without shelf of a long time. right now this less lesson or going to the west. this is about a go in north america, there's the safe sanctioning of european companies, at least now that some of the oil is being diverted and he's moving to india. might be moving to china as well. but there's a loss of light. this is supply loss. and that's, that's good, that's gonna be pushing prices up. the same thing we've seen over the last 2 months,

that the recovery from co b has been really pushing demand higher in north america. and europe gets an in demand diesel demand as, as we recovered some covey that the only bit of the, the, the demand makes that steel aiding is jet, shoot, a demand. but even that is showing some signs of progress. so we might see a demand response because the high prices a typically demand is fairly interesting question that i stick. it takes a long time for full price to have an impact and impact on demand levels. i guess a launch. yes it's, it's good at the moment. thank you so much. antoine are for speaking to us from pair to welcome rushes. invasion of ukraine has sparked a major revamp re evaluation of european security. multiple governments in the region have agreed to increase their military spending and that's as nato troops and ally states hold the biggest military exercises in decades. deep inside the arctic circle. ne barker reports the far north of norway. it is for ever

winter. this is exercised cold response, several weeks of military games involving 30000 troops from 27 countries. most of them, nato alliance members. these troops from finland, a country with a long shed border with russia, finland, not a nato country. and it's historically neutral, but simply invasion of ukraine and increasing number of fins and neighboring swedes while their nations to join the nato alliance. it's warring that all there's a civilians and it's not life. it's something we speak about often. and every one inherited just one space. not a war for the soldiers are reluctant to discuss what abandoning neutrality might actually mean. i think that that is a political question,

and maybe if i won't entre dot one while a real war rages in eastern europe. these troops from freeland and other countries have been put through their paces in the harshest of possible climates, in the hope of these skills will never have to be used for real. we're shown around a state of the art field hospital that could be erected in a matter of hours. precisely the kind of equipment ukrainian forces desperately need but can't get the hands on. and elsewhere this norwegian made anti aircraft weapon the only one in the world. nato countries have spent billions of dollars arming ukraine, but supplies have to be carefully calibrated. do too much risk being drawn into a direct conflict with russia. the invasion of ukraine poses the biggest threat to european security in a generation. several nato states are now rushing to ramp up their defense spending . and the u. k. a norway announced
