i'm with ah, russia retaliates president vladimir putin says he will block the sale of oil to

nations imposing a price cap. ah, i'm how much improved this is al, does your alive from door up also coming up. the u. s. supreme court keeps a pandemic era order, in effect, blocking migrants crossing the border from mexico. stories of survival. we hear from some of the were hangup muslims who made the perilous c crossing from bangladesh to indonesia. and a freezing arctic storm. severe heat waves and devastating floods. we looked back on a year of extreme weather that affected 1000000. ah, russian president vladimir putin has announced a ban on oil exports to countries that set price caps on its energy products. the

decree will last for at least 5 months and will come into effect in february. this month, the european union g 7 and australia agreed on a $60.00 per barrel cap on russian crude. it was aimed at restricting the kremlin revenue from energy while keeping supply flowing to the global market. energy exports made up around 40 percent of russia's annual revenue and are worth around a $1000000000.00 a day. ukraine says that money is being used to finance russia's war efforts. moscow says the cap and other western sanctions would affect its military campaign in ukraine, and the kremlin remains confident. it can find new buyers for its oil and gas. under 00 shirt has more from moscow earlier default when i do a lot of pierre light on this decree was anticipated after an agreement was reached . between the e. u and g 7 countries a few days ago and put a price cap of $60.00 per barrel of oil above, even though russia is currently selling its oil for up to $55.00 us dollars

a barrel. but for russia, according to statements that preceded this decree, it opposes setting a ceiling on prices, not because it could have economic losses. if we take into account the oil prices in the market now. but the kremlin rejects it in principle by latoya. russia believes that energy prices in general should be determined by the markets and not by political decisions taken by countries, according to their interests, or within the framework of sanctions against this. so that party. so what, therefore putin did, what was expected of him and signed this decree, pending another decree related dealing also with the exports of natural gas. so what does this mean? it means that russia, starting from february 1 will stop exporting any oil products to countries or companies related to the decision to set a price ceiling the annual because of this decision, russia is expected to reduce its production to about 500002700000 barrels a day, but according to officials,

this doesn't mean that there would be losses from the russian side, because russia will continue exporting oil to china and india, as well as southeast asian countries. and it's expected that this russian decision will affect the price of oil in the markets, which we will find out about in the next few hours. and over the edge of slab, mishenko is an oil and gas analyst. he says it's a global concern here. political mass or political, actual involvement into the pricing mechanism, special and such a big market like crew. the global crudo market does concern everybody. and despite the fact that some nations didn't support their price gap and some nation would like to continue to buy russell russian cruise, but i think they have global distortion because so today you just implement the price gap on one specific world. and to morrow you go to the another. so i think this is the not market mechanism and decrease in science that it's income

prediction with an actual international law and construct terms. this is commercial issue actually not subject for political maneuvers. brushes, foreign minister has again warned that ukraine must be militarized or faced further military action. surg, elaborate of accused the west of fueling the war and ukraine to weaken russia. he said the length of the conflict will depend on keith and washington lab. rob's ukrainian counterpart to metro labor says his country would like to see a u. n. p summit by february, but doesn't expect russia to join russia's president vladimir putin says he is open to negotiations and blames ukraine and it's western allies for failing to engage in talks. lee turner served as the british ambassador to ukraine from 2008 to 2012. he says he doesn't expect peace talks to start anytime soon. we've got to recognize that it's very reasonable for any normal person to want to stop war to stop

fighting as to stop killing. so it's understandable everybody's looking for ways to do that. but i have to say at the moment, it's very hard to see any possible deal that could lead to either a ceasefire or to peace between russia and ukraine. if we, if we look at the ukranian side, russia has invaded and occupied something like 18 percent of the country killing tens of thousands of troops and displacing millions, causing massive destruction. and russia has made clear it wants to annihilate ukraine that moscow thinks ukrainian the ukrainians have no right to exist. the ukrainians also know from what happened in 2014, that if russia stays in control of territory, it will try to keep it forever. we've seen that with these latest 4 areas that russia is trying to an ex. so there's no way that you crank and accept that. if we

look at the russian side, it's existential for president putin as well. his launched a disastrous unprovoked war, killing tens of thousands of his own troops, as well as all the destruction on the ukrainian side. because he's afraid of democracy coming from ukraine and threatening his own position. now if he gives up any of the land his troops have occupied, he's finished. i certainly don't see any likelihood of negotiations in the next few weeks. maybe in the months ahead much will depend what happens on the battlefield. i think putins hope or the hope of the russian leadership is that a long grinding war will lead to countries that support ukraine getting, frankly, a bit bored of all this. the sudden death of a russian politician who reportedly criticized the invasion of ukraine is being investigated by indian police. the body of pavel anton was found in a pool of blood outside his hotel in the state of odessa where he had been

holidaying. police say he appears to have fallen from his terrace. one of his travel companions died at the same hotel of an apparent heart attack 2 days ago. investigators say there is currently no sign of foul play. the u. s. supreme court has ruled to keep border restrictions that have blocked thousands of migrants from entering the country from the mexico border. the rule known as title 42 was imposed in 2020. it allowed border officials to rapidly expel migrants caught trying to cross into the u. s. from mexico. a federal judge last month ruled the policy to be unlawful, but 19 states, se lifting it could lead to an increase in border crossings. our white house correspondent kimberly hallett is in washington d. c. with more the u. s. president did weigh in on this and what he had to say essentially is that he's commenting on the fact that the supreme court is now going to have the final say on the matter. but 1st is going to have a bit of a deliberation. in other words, is going to hear oral arguments,

this president saying the court is not going to decide on this matter until june as typically when the supreme court rulings come out after hearing oral arguments. and the president goes on further to say that title $42.00 must be in 4th. what is title $42.00 will essentially, it's something that was put in place of during the previous donald trump administration. i. and what this is, is essentially gives the federal government the powers to turn away those that are seeking asylum in the united states under sort of the order that this is to prevent the spread of disease. so it's sort of a public health emergency type of restriction, but it's been use kind of is ad hoc immigration policy, given the fact that there has not been immigration reform in this country for about 20 years. and the controversy around it is essentially that at the by the administration feels that it's now that the pandemic is essentially for all intents

and purposes over that is, this is no longer needed that they have argued it's in humane. that's been separating families and they wanted to see it undone. wrangell muslims have arrived in northern indonesia are telling stories of their harrowing c crossings. at least 185 people are receiving medical care. after arriving in archie on monday, they were on board one of 4 boats that left bung with ash in november. harry faucet has more of the week drifting at sea 1st full day on dry land. 185 range refugees came ashore in indonesia as a province on monday evening. week hungry and many severely dehydrated. we left the refugee camp in bangladesh. 7 days into the journey. the boat engine broke about 10 days into the journey. our food was finished and i had to drink sea water. after more than a month, we arrived here many died undersea. this was the scene just aus earlier,
