12:18 pm
off. they said it was just gonna be for 3 days and then it turned out it's indefinite, but it's not a surprise. is it a no, not at all. it's not a surprise that the, the only thing is not so long as we are not making a decision by we, i mean, the european union, we suffer unpredictable consequences at the timing were put in decides and to inflate their pain. and so you know, we have to find a way of change and controlling the message here for as long as we dont decides and put in then it is capable of actually changing and turning the top off whenever lights so. so you're suggesting that it should be a decision taken by the european union to stop importing russian gas? absolutely, absolutely. but what would the impacts it's r b? i mean, there's a reason why that decision hasn't happened so far. it's that the unique russian gusto absolutely about the one we are the now that we're going to has to do without
12:19 pm
it i am. we see it a happen, sir. i are the winds, offer of present button. what, what do europe me right now is to find a way of reducing consumption of, of all energy because all energy will need to be reduced and used to happen in a way that is control coordinated and corgan ised. this is while european leaders will be working for the september and alien october in the, in the following meetings that they have. and their difference would be that we will control that. we will manage that for the mom and we are simply reacting and as we are reacting. so is the market and we are seeing that the market prices are jumping unexpectedly or in a, in a way that is much more volatile than had it been at our own decision. and of course, the euro itself follows because it reflects the market sentiment. so do you think that european leaders are doing enough to try and prepare for winter without russian gasoline, chancellor shout soon. think that the germany is a good position to get through or at least to scrape through all day dave, that is the case. then we should take the decision much faster than this. they will,
12:20 pm
they will not be any solution without the reduction of consumption. the question is by who, what pace? until when we know that next winter is going to be a difficult winter because we have to come from russian. energy always will happen by the end of the year. and gas, well, probably will have incentives, but it will not happen, but from us it will happen when the russians decide to do it, that is not good for the prices because it makes it much more volatile. i had european union come decisively and said we are cutting it off immediately or at the very dicks of all time pass. then all market will have organized themselves accordingly. and therefore, the price will be a lot more controls. this applies what it is, we cannot do anything about us, but what we can do is control the time table. can we read anything into patients approach here? cutting off supplies to europe in terms of what the impact of the sanctions of actually being for russia's economy. is it worse than the countries letting on
12:21 pm
when i think very much of the sanctions given the decisions that was taken on the russian economy will only be in the medium term all the long term. let me care about this. he will because traffic for the russian economy, but we're not going to see this this winter probably for another 6 months or so. simply because we are still relying on energy on russian energy. and that of course, puts the price up. and it only benefits the revenue for the rushing economy. so that is the bit that i think we still need to fix that. we have to cut it off, bite the bullet, and forbid the russian economy for benefit thing from the huge incremental prices we've seen on, on energy. this is the issue that needs to be resolved the supply side. we have to cut it. but also let's be clear that the russian economy is going to make an enormous hits, but with some delay, i can read a message from brig. oh, thank you very much for joining us here on the to be business. now official data
12:22 pm
from turkey puts onion inflation at over 80 percent for august us more than half a percentage point higher than the previous month. although some economists in the country and says the real rate is much higher while households battle extreme price increases. turkish industry is also suffering. it's an exasperating cycle, as prices for rent, electricity, and consumer goods rise, businesses are raising prices. as a result, customers have less money left for every day purchases. the textiles sector used to be a booming industry and turkey. now that's over. oh, we can't buy anything anymore. everything's too expensive. things that used to cost $200.00 lira about 13 euros a month ago. now cost $400.00 lira. we're just walking around here, but we don't buy anything. many shops are on the verge of bankruptcy, even smaller producers, the weaker turkish lira means raw materials that get imported are becoming more and more expensive. hudson, you know,
12:23 pm
the price of everything from needles to thread have gone through the roof and we don't produce any of them, had neither the needles nor the thread in our own country. unfortunately, this is our biggest problem the turkish government is trying to support the leer as exchange rate, but president air to one is an avowed enemy of high interest rates. and that's contributing to soaring inflation rates. any tax is one of the biggest firms of its kind in turkey. here they die, and so fabric themselves. looking to compete with asian textile producers, this c e o says his company can do the job even more paying his employees well above the minimum wage. years all on your home, there was a 50 percent increase in the minimum wage, but the cost of living has doubled. that wage increase doesn't compensate for inflation. it's a difficult time and i don't know how long it will last long. florida knowles nicholas irving, his company could survive the crisis,
12:24 pm
while many other smaller companies won't make it, leaving many turks without work and frustrated. for more on that, let spring in d to be a business reporter extra mckee g. thanks for being in the studio with us. 80 percent inflation now that's the least the official figure, isn't it? what's the impact is that having for household say, well that's official figure which is horrible enough. but the independent inflation monitoring group is suggesting that is actually 181 percent, which is which is even more horrible. it becomes a seizure it's, it's so much of a different way of looking at a more up to date, more realistic basket. as i understand it and the figure they come up with reflect the lives of wage laborers. and when you look at the supermarket, for example, in turkey, the food prices are through the roof and it's growing increasing almost every week . so, but 80 percent is already high enough to place turkey to the, to the, to,
12:25 pm
to the list of highest inflation countries in the world as haven't. so, this is quite difficult. it's quite difficult to live in turkey right now, because when you look at your visual inflation figure, you will see that the highest increases in transportation and higher education costs. so it's really difficult to be a student. it's difficult to be moving around in turkey and it's definitely difficult to be of a laborer. i got elections coming up next year. haven't a social life is so much harder for so many people and inflation persists up until 2023. is that going to have an impact on the outcome of that of action? well, we will see about that, but what i can say is that i do on government does not seem to be changing course anywhere near anywhere soon. so, but for that,
12:26 pm
we will need to see what is the concrete options from the opposition block, what they say, what concrete plaza programs they are offering? we have seen nothing yet basically. and when we look at the age of the government, they say everything is going on course and we will not sacrifice investment and production just for the sake of lowering inflation. so it's going to be all right, very soon we just have to go through a dark time. but when you look at turkish people, they are suffering a lot now, and i don't think they will forget it any time soon before the election. mckee, cheap from t t o e business. thank you very much to bring us that update. now let's take a look at some of the other global business stories making then use cfo of us retail chain bed bath and beyond. gustavo, our now has fallen to his desk from a skyscraper in new york city. the incident comes just days after the company said it was closing several stores. and after our now was targeted in an investigation
