find more news on our website, d, w dot com. ah. in a result that surprised exactly. no one of florida in russia controlled regions of ukraine announced a victory in their so called referendums. but they dissolved lugens, cat, hassan, and apple regis. i've now called on president putin to formally annex the ukranian territories into russia. the use response couldn't be clearer, no recognition of those results and more tougher sanctions. i'm fil gale in berlin and this is the day. ah, we do not accept the sham referenda. and any kind of annexation in ukraine with residents of the song region voted for joining russia, india,

and were determined to make the kremlin paid for this further escalation. russell was there last month. i ask you to consider the issue of lou hands, the people's republic. it's becoming part of russia. i see today, we together proposing a new package of vital functions. again, we are reuniting without big motherland with a great russia. also on the day financial turmoil in the u. k, triggered by government plans to slash taxes, bring criticism from the international monetary fund and have the opposition scenting blood. well, the i m f segment is very, very serious, and it comes on the back of what the backend of england said early this week. i think for so many people looking at their mortgage payments this morning, worried about whether they come out or to pay them for prices. they will be not just frustrated but angry because the government has lost control of the economy.

welcome to the day, the european union says it wants to hit russia with biting new sanctions, targeting trade rushes, military, and the people who organized annexation votes in parts of occupied. you cried brussels as it wants russia to pay a price for, escalating the crisis by holding what they called sham referendums. you commission president, those are the fatherland. explain the rationale behind these additional measures. i saw night and it rush us economy even more. so we propose sweeping new important bands on russian products. this will keep russian products out of the european market and deprive russia of an additional 7000000000 euros in revenues. were also proposing to extend the list of products that cannot be exported to

russia anymore. as get more from d w, terry she did over the correspondence terry schultz in brussels. that welcome a terry. let's start with at the tone of the commission. presidents us speech. she was, she was in fighting mood. that's right. the european commission and ursula of underlying herself, have been threatening for some time to bring forth this 8th package of sanctions against russia. and now this combination of the sham referenda, putin's mobilization of, of more people to fight in ukraine. his is new nuclear or his repeated nuclear saber rattling, has all really gotten on the nerves of the european commission. so ursula underline says she wants to make the kremlin pay for what she calls, bringing escalation against ukraine to a new you look to a new level. so talk you through these latest functions and how that work. so as you heard, under lion mentioned, they want to bend the import of some 7000000000 euros more of, of products into the

e u. they also really want to try to prevent technology from getting to the russian military, which of course is using it to fight in ukraine. so they're looking again at semiconductors, at other high technology to, to keep it away from the russian military. there's also a pretty interesting development on individuals who would be targeted for sanctions . and that's going to include, for example, people who helped organize these referenda in the for russian occupied regions of ukraine. and there will also be a band if this, if these measures pass there would also be a ban on e, you citizens sitting on boards of russian national companies. now of course in germany that will bring up the name of your heart. schroeder, who sits on a lot of these boards and this proposed cap on oil prices hasn't going to work. and this is a very complicated question, phil. and it certainly is in the beginning phases of, of being implemented in the european union. the g 7 has agreed in principle to put a cap on the price that could be paid for russian oil that has not yet been agreed to by all e u countries. and what wonder line is proposing in this package of sanctions?

is li, the legal framework, so that should all e u countries agree to this price cap on oil that the laws would already be in place? and this is something now that e, u ambassadors, what we'll be discussing here at the end of this week. and i spoke to an official tonight who said that perhaps if all goes well, this entire package may be adopted by the time there's a, there's a summit next week. ok, thank you for that. terry. anti doubly course one. terry schultz in brussels. or the results of the so called a referendums, held in for regions of ukraine are occupied by russia are in officials in store by moscow say between 87 and 99 percent of residents voted yes to be annexed by the russian federation. some separatist leaders have already formerly requested incorporation, ukraine's president lansky says he will defend or his country's territory and force russian troops out of the occupied regions. applause and daniel chris,

the results of the so called referendum came in for the russian backed authorities . it was a day they've been waiting for for years, visited us on the gun. we were dreaming about this in 2014. and then we were making history already. and that's what this is. in a book to day, we live in historic days, where we are re uniting with our big motherland murphy with great russia, really good se, according to officials and before occupied regions, and overwhelming majority of road suite cast and fave of russian annexation with a high turn out but ukrainians who recently fled those areas till a very different story. also selected austin results were nicely drawn up on paper . but in reality people didn't fold up a kind of the turn out wasn't that large loser. people are very much opposed to the referendum re and no one wants to join russia. no one novice comes in with that

with this pressure. people are scared to over. yes, cognition them. but i saw members of the voting commission filling and ballads themselves while sitting in their cars. li, i thought with my own eyes they did the same in their voting districts, eat them with, i know my relatives, my friends, so you no one vote it. oh, you don't the whole a so low. what the clipper this is what the referendum is. is this what free will is walking around with assault rifles and making others sign ballads? sure, keith and it's rest on their lives, have denounced the referendums as illegal and illegitimate. say, 1st of all in it, that is foss in the occupied territories, cannot even be called an imitation of a referendum in what year we will oc, to protect our people in the her san region in these upper region regions in dom boss in currently occupied areas of the hockey region and in crimea, if cromwell, the u. s. said it would ask the you, unsecure to counsel,

to condemn the votes with a resolution ordering russia to withdraw from ukraine that condemns these. but with moscow having a veto in the council, there's no chance of the resolution passing with the same votes out of the way it melts up to president putin just how fast he wants to complete the final step and next them to the occupied territories and escalating his 7 month old war, once again, ah, a european union lead a se ruptures in the north stream pipeline. we're probably caused by sabotaged scientists, recorded under the explosions or on the lines connecting at russia and germany, and there in the baltic phase. now churning with x k escaping gas, though there have been no claims of responsibility. poland says the leaks mark an escalation in the war on you cried. a kremlin spokesman said it would be stupid and absurd to blame russia for the attack. fuel spilling out into the baltic

sea. afterward, the youth top diplomat, joseph burrell, says, is a likely act of sabotage b t. what nod stream pipelines linked russia and germany, 3 red dots marked the places where the leaks were detected. even though the pipelines are not currently delivering rushing gas to europe, they're still full of fuel. european leaders say they're fairly certain about the cause of the leaks. says that we have swedish intelligence, but we also have received information from denmark. and based on this, we concluded that this is probably a deliberate act. it is probably a case, a sabotage. the also to landfill, a gall met sabotaged the e. u has vowed retaliation for any attack on the energy network. the leaks are expected to last for at least in the week. and only then can investigations begin.

and while nord stream pipelines, $1.00 and $2.00 and now out of action, there's a conflict brewing over the other major source of europe's gas from russia. this is the transit line through ukraine gas from is threatening to sanction ukraine's state gas company enough. the gas because the ukrainians have been seeking arbitration to make gas prom pay. it's bill for transporting gas through ukraine to central unit. and that could result in gas from halting gas exports to europe through ukraine just keeps getting worse, doesn't it? ilana, as their car is an advisor to the ukrainian energy ministry and has been an advisor to the c e o of the ukrainian state gas company. she joins us from berlin. thanks for joining us. welcome to the w. this argument has had a much lower profile in the media. is it likely to end in this pipeline being cut

off as well? hello. ah, yeah, definitely in the dead swan of this science that russia is very serious in its desire to actually, ah, raise all this takes in energy we're against to europe and the supply. now on this 30, the sound of the contractual obligations through ukraine bed. even these to mount, i think, is very considerable now for europe, when it does not have any possibilities of either sources of russian gas. so actually that the last route to euro exclude, ah, the darkest dream. that seats no other ways, how to deliver rush and gas, and even though they're threaten us with their sanction, against nothing else. and actually they consider that the actions of nascar does

where unfriendly, and they want to do thus from an unfriendly jurisdiction. badges the switzerland, right? a part of gas proms argument is that ukraine has failed to fulfill its contractual obligations by refusing to allow gas through separatist controlled hands. they don't have a point ah, no, because they occupied this controlling point and we lost control on this particular point. and we suggested to red route the yes to and now they point to where it says to jack and which is capable to deliver all necessary amount of yes. and actually they can go to arbitration as well. even they see that you grade does not full sealants obligation, right?

but as, as you say, that the notion, the idea of arbitration is one that goes from dislikes and because there's as use as you say, other said it is in an unfriendly jurisdiction. now, it probably comes as news to many of us that russia is still sending gas through ukraine to the west. isn't it in ukraine's interest to see about to hold for that and another source of russian income removed? i don't think that this is said the income and source from russia that's about digital film and to follow obligations to transport these guess to europe. and we are a reliable partner and we're very much cherish our reputation. understood, that's what's indifferent. i understand. i'm changing subject slightly because i am aware that as well as advising the energy minister, you're also a ukrainian ambassador. extraordinary. so a word then about these,

these votes that russia has been holding in occupied ukraine, and of course, they'd be inevitable. yes to russian annexation. what's, what's your response to those? that's just an analogy of sake and don't hold these take a referenda because bad and misuse of the term eraser. and this is not a ref around that and, and now that see and, and as a show which was orchestrated by russians and all of us were absolutely aware that about death possible result of these the i've seen in advance. so that's why we were absolutely ready, was this results, and we will continue to fight for our territories and for our freedom. thank you so much for spending time and joining us on the w a lot as echo ukrainian ambassador,

extraordinary an advisor to the ukrainian energy ministry. thank you. thank you. ah, plans are by the u. k. government for huge tax cuts. finance by borrowing, have drawn strong international criticism. the international monetary fund issued a rare warning to a major world economy saying the tax cuts may fuel inflation and they're likely to increase economic inequality. plans of already triggered volatility on the market, forcing the bank of england to announce today that it will buy as much government debt as needed to restore order. the government plan announced on friday for deep cuts and the regulations are intended to be 5, a stagnant economy instead of triggered an economic crisis and seen support for the opposition. surgeon is the head of the opposition labor party. they've lost control of the economy. now, you know, we all understand when the international issues crises that cause fluctuations in

the market. but that isn't this case. this is a situation where the government has self inflicted harm on our economy and people looking at their mortgages, looking at prices this morning, will be worried sick, i think. and i wouldn't be surprised if a little bit angry that the government has lost control of the economy self inflicted wounds. and they're now picking up the bill. let's take a closer look at this with philip in when he's the economics editor of the you case, observe a newspaper economics writer for the guardian. welcome to d, w. a. past the u. k. new government lost control of the economy. well, it's made some really significant errors coming to office. it's just taking over from the previous far as johnson regime and the blue and now huge amount of all of which being done, we borrowed money. and that's just going to add to the again, the government already has. and that's going to market because, you know,

just adding to something that isn't going to generate growth, which i think is most economist is a recipe for disaster. and how's this affecting households and businesses? well, household now going to see them. oh, but this was, i mean, they're already seen and we'll just rise. and, and that's the problem because obviously we are a property market economy have been for some time. we do get a manufacturing on top of the services seeking financial services. awful lot of the economy is driven by what goes on in the market. and that's already stocks in place . so i think one of the analogies that people have used is the britain this now putting is for the seller writer to try and generate growth with tax cuts. and that is just for the bank to put his foot on the brake. and you know, when you drive a car with a foot on the accelerator to break, you're probably going to engine ok, but the government says there's no need to change course the u. k. is economic

fundamentals are found, they say, and the bank of england is taking action to calm the situation. well, here from the number to the treasury, andrew griffith and then come back to you. we've got a very, we've got a very strong balance sheet, the u. k. has the 2nd lowest debt to g d p ratio in the g 7. the bank, as i say, is taken the timely action that it does it's, it's its job to regulate financial markets. and then what the government's got to do is to provide people with that confidence a really big interventions to help every single household with the cost of energy. if we hadn't done that and just think about what the implications would be in terms of people's confidence. and their cost of living this winter. so it's fairly pittman, the government's due to flash out, the details of their plan in november just explains what happens then and why they're waiting so long. while they're waiting so long because they haven't really worked out what they're going to do, they have a plan to try and generate more growth with even more tax cuts. and they know all

that see about how to do that because they realize the rest of the financial community economists, analysts go bankers are all saying, well, actually skeptical, but this is going to work. so they have fitness it, in some way to convince they also have a body in the office or budget of civility that tend been given instruction since 2010 or sort of adjudicating on every project. they have to come in. and they will say, actually this plan is going to work that already said in your face, and the government is now very wary of a budget, is just going to add to even more criticism. the big one of the big headlines today is that the international monetary fund is added to these criticism, saying that those plans would increase inequality and worse and inflation and downing street should rethink them. this sounds like quite

a severe telling off for a g 7 country. but why is a little local economic difficult if i put it that way in the u. k. why is that even on the i m f radar? well, the elements has been criticized most european countries without meaning them for the bailouts that they've been pushing through. over the last 6 months. france, germany doesn't like anything that they've been doing because they think they're to blunder. just spraying money around on the rich and poor to try and get through this and try this and the kinds no difference what we've done as really excited the math really got line. great is because we've added on top of that. so we've not just had an emergency energy price cap, which is trusting a 150000000000. we've added on top tax cuts, which will be recovery, which will go on forever. so that's really the u. k is also part of

a reserve currencies. so the year i was in europe is a reserve currency, the dollar, the n and sterling is as well. so now we're one of the reserve company currencies of this, well, the all messing about suddenly causing chaos. and the i'm, if things this is the moment in history, when the last thing they need is a country to start causing that unnecessary chaos. and so just a brief word about government thinking because with a country facing a recession, rising inflation and a post cove, it economic hung over. what is this new government hoping to achieve by these tax cutting measures? well, they have a theory. the theory is that it's like a sort of ronald reagan kind of, you know, a lot of money and give it to the rich and entrepreneurs in tax cuts. and they will learn, invest the money. they will build factories, they will, you know,

invent things. they will count but earlier in the morning because they can make more money and they will then generate the kind of tax returns you need in the future as a country. all mean the britain goes from a gross right of about one or percent. yeah. to they think to the office and that's going to happen over the next 3 to 4 years. i think their problem is, is that they've held this theory for many decades. they've now have the chance to implement it, but they're doing it right at the point when we have high inflation. so actually, all they're doing is stoking even more inflation, but they can't help themselves. this is their theory. this is what they think generates growth. and they don't really care the economic environment. they're plowing their forum into is actually really stone. the rocky ground is going to break up for a cause chaos. but it's very clear, thanks for joining us and outlining that to so clearly for the payment from the guardian and observant news. thank you
