laces sanctions for the war and ukraine. the blood once done in stages to give government time to look for alternatives. supplies hungry in slovakia are resisting and pushing for exemptions from any embargo. donna cain reports from berlin. this is the gas from nif installation in hunting mencius from installations like these in siberia and across russia. crude oil, diesel and petrol are pumped to customers. take them together every day. nearly 8000000 barrels of crude and refined products are exported. 2 thirds of them end up in europe. but now russia's war against ukraine has changed everything to day. we are addressing our dependency on russian oil. and let's be clear. it will not be easy because some member states a strongly dependent on russian oil, but we simply have to do it. so today we will propose to ban all

russian oil from europe. this will be this will be a complete impulse ban on all russian oil seaborne and pipeline crude and refined. but in order for this to happen, it will need the support of all e u. member states. some are highly dependent on russian oil and a strongly resistant to all out embargoes. the hungarian say what matters most to them is protecting their economy and people hobbled, one war is going on. and as a consequence process arising in the whole of europe, the signs of a serious crisis of energy and the european economies are facing miseries. and we are not yet out of the age of epidemics on a preferred people medically decision based. but leaders of the country to defend them and hungry from these dangers. the new sanctions proposed in strasburg will also target several large russian banks and other financial institutions. we

finally de swift. spank. spank is one of the is the largest russian bank. it was round about 37 percent of the whole banking sector and we will also de swift to other major banks in russia. by that we hit banks that are systemically critical to the russian financial system. and proteins ability to wage destruction . the notable absentee from all this is russian natural gas. in a sense, it's the elephant in the european living room, too big to be ignored, but also too big, unilaterally to be done away with, without seriously damaging economies across this continent. and that's the problem . placing e u leaders, they want to act fast against russia, but they're stuck with the reality of decisions that governments across europe made over decades when they thought that it was in their best interests to make deals with president putin. dominic cane al jazeera berlin. well,

david nymph is chief economist for the k b c bank in hungary. he joins now from budapest. thank you very much for your time . so it appears hungry would be given more time to meet these e you demands to enact a ban on russian oil that can hungry afford to do this. it's not easy, sir, not to monday to the other 2 stuff for boy and guess you boys from russia. but the good news is that there are lots of transfer capacities from everywhere. so or so from the direction of austria was of a sudden. but the problem is that from where the gas and that would be a come to this region and to hungary to most. and he's of hungary, it's positive that at least 20 percent of the gas consumption is domestic

produced. so there is also coming hungry and guests are to consumers, but the remaining part is coming from russia. so the gas part is very, if you could, the oil buyer is let's. so if you could, because the refinery capacities are there, these are quite good refineries. a company has but again, hungry has to find a new part unless we deliver the oil to the region. so far. i mean, what was heard from senior leadership in hungary is that it's unable to do that or i'm willing to do that. but i'm wondering what the you could do to get hungry to comply it, could it with whole budget payments perhaps, and what impact would that have on the hungarian economy? no, i don't think that this is a solution because that link this kind of sanctions against hungry or

rather find a way that what is that the timing frames are hungry and economy, it could change it to other countries regarding the oil and gas are transfers. so i think that there could be a solution, and the solution is not living with things sanctions on hungry through the you funds of money. but if, for example, there is a corporation between the european countries that how they can help each other from the situation. so for example, most of the problem is that there is not enough and you told me, and i said through or you can get to guess about the for from other countries they can have in the procedure and, and make the developments. because it's not only depending on hungry and hungry has

no c course, so we have to cooperate with other countries. these countries have made the investments to, to prepare the appropriate and engine telling us that's right, that's ok. so this kind of work together. i think it would have more to, to stop for the dependent on oil and gas. it's quite helpful outlook you have just trying to picture, if you would, for us of how the war in ukraine has impacted hungry, current finances. i know we've seen inflation in many countries around the world. we see a rise in the price of energy. so what's the status of hungry finance is right now . unfortunately, in hungary, the inflation is also going up early, but there are lots of price measures. for example, for, they're also segment their energy prices are fixed. so it's also important that how

the government will finance these cost of lower energy prices for the whole sector . so what we expect from the new government, there will be a new budget 3 in adjustment. it will cost approximately 3 percent of g d p in the next one and a half year. and it's also very important to make an agreement. do you believe are getting there you funds money because it could have or so to, to maintain a sustainable growth level in hungry. but at the moment what we see that domestic agreement didn't economic growth is very strong. the investments are still going on and the fine, and there is no financing problem. there are lots of liquidity still on the market, but it's true that the financing cost is increasing and it's an extra cost for the budget as well. but at the moment it looks like that a little bit lower economic growth than in last year. but still it could be read

about see percentage when about 4 percent here. all right, very good. i thank you very much. your time david name is there. she's kind of us for the k b c bank in hungry. thank you. well, we're going to take you to washington d. c. now where you as president joe biden is talking about the state of his country's economy. now that experience is soaring, inflation. let's take a lesson and looking ahead, i will plan to reduce the deficit more, which will help reduce inflationary pressures and lower everyone's cost for families. look, it's a plan that lead medicare negotiate pressure, prescription drugs, as they do with the department of veterans affairs. we can cap the price of missile and $35.00 instead of the hundreds of dollars, even a $1000.00 a month for some families. and my plan provides tax credits to utility companies to generate clean energy. and those companies are required to pass those savings on to

families. i met with about a dozen of those utility ceos here in the white house, and they confirm this plan will lower energy bills for families immediately. my plan includes tax credit for consumers to purchase electric or fuel cell vehicles. newer used, which will save the typical drive about $80.00 a month, not having to pay for gas at the pump tax credits for folks to buy solar panels and heat pump. and more efficient windows and doors for their homes, estimated savings. $500.00 per year on average. we can do these things by making sure that no one earning less than 400000 dollars year will pay a single penny more. in federal taxes hor asking is of the wealthiest americans and the largest corporations began to pay their fair share least part of their fair share. you've heard me say before i'm a capitalist. i believe you should be able to make much money as you legally can. but just pay your fair share. there's no reason why a billionaire should be paying

a lower tax rate than a teacher or a higher fighter. that's in sharp contrast to where today's republican party is offering. and if i, if they hadn't put this in print, you think i was making it up? suddenly, ricks got a florida united states senator, who's leading to republican national senatorial campaign committee, released what he calls the ultra mega agenda. it's an miger gender. right. let me tell you about this ultra micro junk. it's extreme. as most miger things are, they were actually raised taxes on $75000000.00 american families over 95 percent of whom make less than a 100000 dollars year. among the hardest hit are that is u. s. president sa, by an ear. speaking about the state of the economy, about ways to lower costs for families is comes ahead of an expected raising of interest rates by the federal reserve. i believe on wednesday that so let's go to

our white house cost on kimberley hancock who joins us now live. kimberly said, what should we make of all that? well 1st of all, when we talk about the expected rate hike by the federal reserve, this isn't just an incremental rate hike. this is a rate hike of interest rates that would make it more expensive for consumers to borrow, to purchase things like cars, potentially student loans, buying a house, all of those things in terms of this hike. this could be the most substantial increase we've seen and interest rates in the united states since the year 2000. so we're talking in 22 years or 2 decades. that's a big deal. so the, the u. s. president is trying to get ahead of what could be some potentially shocking news for many americans. so what he's doing is talking about the economy and where he sees some of the successes that have come so far. but the bottom line

is, this is a president that's got some challenges because the latest gallup poll numbers seem to show that when it comes to confidence by the american people, in, not just the president's handling of the u. s. economy, but also the federal reserve. the confidence has been winning by the double digits this time last year, 57 percent of americans seemed to have pretty good confidence that things were under control. now that's down to about 43 percent, so it's not going in the right direction. so what we've just heard the u. s. president talking about there is his effort to reduce the deficit in the budget deficit in the united states saying that he believes in fiscal responsibility. he believes in capitalism. but he doesn't believe in the capitalism of his predecessor that he believes, helped billionaires and trillion errors. in other words, what he believes is lifting people up from the bottom. and in turn, investing in the sort of the least of these in the economy. and as a result,

seeing the economy grow through those types of investments. he's pointed out that there's much less in urgency spending due the coven 19. and he's also talked about how he sees the economy recovering in terms of employment. and the fact that the unemployment rate is lowering in the united states. so the president sort of taking off when he sees as some successes. but again, he's got real challenges and some of the successes may not be enough to combat the headlines that are yet to come here in the united states with respect to the hiking interest rates at kimberly, how can there for us in washington d. c. thank you. ahead of the world health organization has said access to safe abortions is crucial to saving lives. is comments came after elite document emerge, suggesting that the u. s. supreme court is poised to reverse of landmark abortion bowling shepherd, towns the reports from washington dc. ah,

thousands gathered outside the supreme court on tuesday afternoon to protest the leak draft opinion that was reported to have the support of 5 conservative justices and opinion. that concludes that since those who wrote the constitution did not explicitly protect women's reproductive rights than previous judgments in training, a women's right to choose had no basis in the law. and that we are long past that point. and that we was protested about how many decades ago, but it's terrifying. this is a handful of anti abortion rights protests roadside. the court to i say, illusion of murder, but flows seeking to end abortion access. this has been the goal since 1973 when justice is ruled in favor of women's reproductive rights. in the case of robi weight and justice robert said that that was not in check draft. so we're very happy to hear that. and hopefully i will stay with that draft and that will be the

decision to overturn roe vs wade. the white house as it is prepared for whatever the actual verdict is. but the president warned the reasoning underpinning the draft opinion has far reaching implications and basically says, all the decisions related to your private life will you marry whether or not you decided to see the child or not, whether i'm on the voice of other decision, whether the how you raise your child. what does this do? does this mean that in florida they can decide are going to pass a law saying that same sex marriage is not visible? the u. s. has the worst maternal mortality rate in the industrialized world. those hear a word that terrible metric could now deteriorate even further, that the sign was inspired by conversations with many women today. i don't think that anybody has an idea of what the real world consequences are. and especially those who are in a position of privilege. i'm like everybody on the supreme court myself did not.

there's a lot of really potential for harm. but there was hope to oppose of consistently saying 70 percent of americans are against outlawing abortion. but democrats seem to be hoping for a bump in town out in november's mid term elections from those who support female, reproductive rights. but there is an awareness had in the past when the democrats about the opportunity to codify a woman's right to choose. they failed to do so. she, every time al jazeera washington because i'm not a medical hey, who's outside the supreme court in washington, dc and petty, a few people there behind you. but it seemed still like a very different scene today. the supreme court much different scene, we saw more than a 100 protesters here, mostly those who are pro abortion rights. and i think security was expecting that that might continue. first street here behind me is usually open the cars. but now they've got dumb trucks closing, closing it off to traffic,

and you can see about my count there, about 13 pro abortion rights activists. there are 2 anti abortion rights activists . of course, it's remained peaceful so far, but it is going to be a concern because as you mentioned, this is a draft and drafts are not the final decision. it's often the case, the justices change their mind after reading the initial draft. now, not certain that that's going to happen in this case, but it's going to take a while. so the processes now those in the descent, they're going to go ahead and write their opinion. we don't expect that this decision is going to come out until late june, early july. it'll be interesting to see if the heat security in place because this is such an incredibly contentious issue in the united states. patty, talk us through the implications this may have or politically with the midterm. so as she had mentioned it, the majority of americans favor having some access to abortions. in the past. those

who are anti abortion rights, they tend to get more fired up. they tend to be a better at getting people to the polls because roby wade was something they were fighting against. so the question becomes, if roby wade is gone as, along with access for about $26.00 states for and $26.00 days for women to have abortions. is that going to be a motive motivating factor? one problem, the democrats are likely going to have, as they now control the presidency, the house, and the senate. it is hard to explain intricate, say, senate procedures to the american public. so basically, right now the to the senate could try to take up a law overruling the supreme court, making abortion legal across the country across the country. but they don't have the votes. so vicky, there's one democratic senator who is keeping them from just doing a simple majority. so they'd need another 9 votes to get this past and they just simply don't have that. so explained to the american public, that not only we didn't do it because we read, we were in power, but now we need you to give us 10 more senators and then we can do it. but it is,

again, this is one that we've haven't had an election like this in though almost 50 years . where roe v wade wasn't the law of the land. so it, that's the x factor. nobody knows. just how motivating that's going to be for democrats now. right. and of course this has come out from a leak. this is an official document. this is a late draft document. do we know. 1 who was behind this well, they're going to try and find out. this is highly unusual in modern history. we haven't seen a draft of the decision from the supreme court. even one with this, this many huge ramifications. there aren't that many people in the building behind me that have access to the document. it's estimated to be about 50. so the 9 justices there, clerks and staff. so they don't have a huge pool of suspects to, to go through. so it should be able to happen in fairly short order. we do know the supreme court chief justice john roberts, he confirmed that in fact, it was

a legitimate document and said. busy last launch in investigation, notably he's not bringing in the f. b i or the justice department. he's keeping the internal the marshal service is going to lead that investigation. the question i have, are they going to involve lie detector, test impasse, supreme court would, leaks have happened? they've tried to do that not, and then it been shut down. so it'll be interesting to see just exactly how this investigation proceeds. but again, not a huge full of people to try and figure out who did it petticoat and a lot for us at the supreme court and washington d. c. thank you. japan and south korea say north korea has fired a ballistic my style over its east coast toward the sea. it was launched from the tsunami area. it would be north korea's 14th known weapons test this year. not often noticed me korea's recent remarkable development. and when you click on related technology is not only unacceptable for the security of japan and the

region, but not korea's flu of action, including its repeated launches of ballistic missiles, threatened the peace and security of our country region and the international community and are absolutely unacceptable they're also in violation of relevant security council resolutions, and we strongly condemn these actions. because that in light of the situation, we will consider all options including the possession of so called enemy base attack capability. and we'll continue to work to fundamentally strengthen our defense capabilities. off career specialist masonry, she says the young man wants to use it's miss all technology to achieve its scientific and political ambitions. north korea has multiple reasons for why it tests. ballistic missiles. it wants to make technical progress on a host of systems, including short range, ballistic missiles that might be able to carry tactful warheads. it wants to develop icbm that can perhaps carry multiple warheads. and so

it needs to make technical progress on these systems. these were outlined in a party congress. so it's also important domestically kim jong and wants to make progress on those systems are in order to cement or to continue to see his regimes authority within north korea. and then of course, there's also an international messaging effect. both for south korea and for the united states and for other countries in northeast asia and other allies of the u. s. and south korea and japan and north korea is strong. the united it has a nuclear arsenal that functions both as a deterrent and potentially or nuclear conversion. you know, it would not surprise me the fact that the inauguration for the new unit ministration which will happen 1, may 10, perhaps plays

a role in calculus nor 3 has in some way, i doubt it's the driving one. as i said, i think, you know, 3 tests on its own schedule. aging as close dozens of subway stations and suspended bus routes to don't covered 900 spreading through. the city fencing has been put up around buildings and compounds in neighborhoods where infections, the highest restaurants and bars are only allowed to serve takeaways while jims and schools are closed. millions of people are being tested because you reports from beijing. well, things are extremely intense. i think everyday paging residence wake up, and if there is notice to be locked down, announced people are very thankful to trying to make the most of their ability to go out tools. but with the kind of numbers we're seeing at the moment, i think most people agree that a city wide lockdown is not going to be very likely, unless we see a huge spike in numbers. but what authorities are doing is stealing off

neighborhoods in a very targeted way. so if you are fortunately in a pass of the city which is affected by cases, for example, in china and district, the eastern part of the if you where i am located, then you will be locked down while the rest of the city, it still has still relative freedom. now aging, is that the only city to announce these measures. there's another city job job central china, home to 12000000 people that enough similar measures to day wednesday. and also if you look at shanghai, china's commercial center, the most populous city in china, further down south that remains largely under locked down. official said that they have eased restrictions beginning on sunday. but because that 50 is continuing to see thousands of new cases every day. there's still a long way to go until that locked down and lifted. so the majority of the 25000000

people living in shanghai named couldn't find to that compound, or even their apartments still had on al jazeera, the count down to what could be an historic election in northern ireland. where in vain these boys to become the biggest party and later in sports, and the murray sets up a clash with novak dock of it to them, fred marston, santa has all the action. ah hello there. let's look to the middle east and we've had a dusty few days across the region. thanks to sand storms pushing down from iraq. now, a lot of that dust has been lifted up for some of the gulf states. this was the scene in doha. we had visibility effected with lots of hazy sunshine, and we are expecting those conditions to continue. we've seen some brisk winds below that dust about, but temperatures will dip down slightly. it is going to cool here,

and it has been rather cool across the levant temperatures way below the average for this time of year. some of those unsettled conditions, pushing their way further east. by the time we get into friday. now we're going to see the unsettled weather pick up across northern areas of africa from the northwest corner. we've got wet and windy weather moving across algeria towards to nicea a lot of those winds picking up. that's the horrid dust and blowing it towards southern europe. it cools down as well for cairo, but across that central band of africa will, temperatures are above average. it isn't as wet as it is expected to be for this time of year. for the wet weather, we have to look to the horn of africa. we've got some wind warnings out for coastal areas of kenya and heavy rain expected to edge into tanzania, but it's a largely dry picture for much of southern africa. we'll see the rain in cape town by saturday that she weather ah

seen as a burden. countless babies are reported in india simply for being girls. but amidst these resistance, even from rome, patience soonest, midwife adopted the course of challenging, deeply ingrained. traditionally with terminating this modern day beside the daughter, 3 witness on al jazeera. i don't get a get with

lou. ah, ah, are you watching out 0 reminder about top stories? this are the mayor of the devastation ukrainian city of mario poll says rush and forces are again attacking a besieged steel works. and they've lost contact with the soldiers still inside reported fighting, threatens to disrupt to ongoing evacuation efforts. the european union wants its members states to ban russian oil imports as part of its latest sanctions related to the warn you crane. bob wants it done in stages hungry and the walker are already pushing back over european commission president to us live on the lion

admits that, getting all 27 e u member countries to agree on oil sanctions won't be easy as why the bulkhead. it's about a quarter of its oil from russia most to which goes into petrol and diesel vehicles . germany has already been reducing its dependence on oil, but remains a big consumer of russian natural gas and hungry is one you man, but it said an oil embargo simply isn't an option. it gets 85 percent of its oil and 65 percent of its gas from russia. andre auntie cove is a russian political analyst be, thinks moscow confide other bias outside europe. there could be any response to the decision made by the u. e u but on the outside the must go. ready will of course find some other countries that are ready to import the rational oil. it said that. ready enjoys. ready the chinese, right, the other countries ready? so i think what the european countries are doing, the shooting themselves of the leg because russia has provided around 30

percent of gruel to the european countries and i think i don't imagine. ready where or at what price those countries will. ready get oil from, from what countries may be the united states. ready would provide the european countries with crude oil, but again, what will be the price so no one can make these countries the person to buy. so russia will just, as i mentioned previously, we'll just try. ready to find the other countries to import the oil i used to. ready in days ready to buy. ready russian oil changes ready to buy. ready russian oil, other countries are ready to buy the russian oil, asian country basically. so this is the decision made by a european union. so we, you, of course we, we, we look at this efficient,

but we also will take measures will take steps to prevent the economical effect to negative effect on the russian economy. therapy union is considering freezing the assets of the head of the russian orthodox church. hi truck. carroll is already on a draw blacklist that also includes hundreds of russian military offices and business. then close to the kremlin. the you accuse them of supporting the war and ukraine. the un says the conflict in ukraine is adding to what it calls a perfect storm of factors that are making hunger worse around the world. a joint report from the un european union and world food program says, 193000000 people and more than 50 different countries didn't have enough to eat last year. as 40000000 more than the year before. conflict, extreme weather, and a pandemic. the main reasons for the increase since monahan reports on the situation in ethiopia,

somali region which is suffering its worst route in decades. this used to be fertile, grazing land. now it just drives a bone. life is growing increasingly difficult for these nomadic herders in eastern ethiopia and others like them across the horn of africa region. many feel powerless as they wash their livelihoods disappear beneath the sand, will come hide it. there is not a single animal left for the party. welcome conditions are really hard and this drought is much different from previous ones. we've never suffered like this. the regions, worse drought in decades is killed nearly 1500000 animals from the hurts. people here say it's part of a new pattern of weather that's threatening their way of life. the puzzle is, you know, as soon as they know they're trying to recover from the other drug, the progress of the hits but, but it's a controlled. so it's made it make them possible for them to recover quickly from the previous previous in shocks. the thought of 20000000 people are on the

brink of starvation. many have been displaced and forced to settling caps, aid workers do what they can to feed the hungry. but sometimes that's not enough. we come up with some of the mother who because of they are not head getting and food. dad, not believing. and if in a food for children are in a fit for feeding, for children, scientists are linking the crisis to climate change. droughts like this, used to happen once every 6 years. now they're every 3 rights groups are calling for urgent action. but for the nomadic herders of east africa, it may come too late to preserve their way of life. then smaller him al jazeera rebecca richards of the u. n's. well, food program says great at global coordination could make a difference. these, most of these numbers is, as we've seen, also one of africa or in a quite a small group of countries. and if we look at the courses, they're really around

a combination of climate change, especially with the drought in one, but also conflict. also, the economic repercussions occur of it, and i have to say the ukraine crisis is going to make an overall operate global food system much, much more fragile. we already see higher number of the cost of food. and so many of our countries, price hikes, the cost of oil, all of these affect accounts for supply chain and the ability to distribute food to where it's most needed. we need to also tackle what we're calling the root cause. it's why we there in the 1st place, the drought, they're requiring they're carrying the shortest time frame, but we know they're coming. we have the technology to know that we can predict them . we see it ahead of time. so what is the preemptive action is needed to really change these numbers. what are the solutions needed? so that needs to be, tackle is a longer time frame,

as well as the short an immediate response. it's needed to save lives. we also need to be looking at resilience of populations and, and their longer term resistance to these shops. we need to come together as a global community. so that coordination and ability to plan together and to look long term is absolutely essential for and these military says 10. all of its african union. peacekeepers have been killed in somalia of the ash evolved over on the vase alba on tuesday. 25 other soldiers were wounded. 20, i'll come on fight as were killed. the worst attack by the on group this year. all editions in the democratic republic of congo have voted to extend martial law in to eastern provinces. the military, along with forces from neighbouring uganda fighting against armed groups, reports of mass killings, abductions and sexual violence. a wide spread armed house reports is not the
