the me, the news the pay stub in the back from spend that straight shanella 3 of its allies, they us the u. k. i'm just really a leave it. i tell the pacific security allied countries, china and that does job, i can make them borrow things slip up while i thing the deal. i hardly for guessing the name of the trillion prime minister. thank you bores and i want to thank that fell down on thank you very much. appreciate it. just

also ahead in the program while european markets, real from wednesdays, record surgeon, natural gas prices with a nautical effect. by the way on the pockets of customers. we look at the root causes of russia parliamentary election. just the day away will bring you the full breakdown of this hour on friday. the 3 days i coming live from moscow 24 hours a day. this is your, our teacher national are top stories this thursday, stub in the back. now. so senior french officials have described a pacific security pack between 3 of its allies, the u. s. the united kingdom on the trillion seen as an attempt to counter beijing . now i spoke with independent journalist luc renee. he thinks france is right to

be angry about the loss of a major defense contract. well, put it this way for the french, it seems like australia was only with fraud until a better deal offer came along, which invariably it has australia originally asked france to help with its submarine mission, but has now walked away and walking away also comes with scrapping a 90000000 year road deal instead, australia now wants to sign this tax with the united kingdom and the united states, which for the french, they say it's a stop in the back. the will do the jungle. france has just been reminded this bitter truth by the way, the u. s. and the u. k of stopped her in the back in australia still v, the american choice to exclude the european ally and partner such as franz from restructuring partnership with australia at the time when we are facing unprecedented challenges in the in the pacific region shows a lack of coherence that france can only note and regret. so instead of failure

have find the security parks with the united kingdom and the united states overgrown concerns over china and its regional dominance on this deal. then what it all really entails is that all 3 nations will be sharing secrets and data and information on a strategic level on areas, including artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, and also nuclear defense. part of this, we'll see that australia will now acquire a nuclear submarine making the 7 the country in the world to get a nuclear saw just the last time that the united states allowed such capabilities was right here to the united kingdom some decades ago. so very grand gesture, indeed. however, it's not just the likes of france, a quite upset by the signing of this new security parks, but neighboring countries like new zealand who have long been walking towards nonproliferation in the region. the center pieces,

it is nuclear power submarines. no part is a very well versed and understanding positional nuclear power vessels and weapons. i will legislation says no vessel holy are fully powered by nuclear energy, can enzo and turn on waters. but look, burton is also quite eager to be more involved in areas like the asia pacific, especially after the exit from the european union. we have to remember that the united kingdom on its government has long been trying to re brad and re establish it self as a global britain. but all of this will really push europe to now be more fundamental in its own strategic planning. in fact, the plot was not even informed about this new u. s. u. k, australia security partnership. again at a time when e. u. member states are also struggling to meet the funding commitments in nato as well. so that could be a why to your political backlash than just that of china. shania edwards dusty taken us through that know the friendship between washington and camber. i might

not be as close as it seems when and noticing the security deal president biden appeared to forget the name of australia's prime minister. scott morrison. thank you born and i want to thank that fell down under. thank you very much. appreciate it. just prime as well. it's really if the u. s. and france have repeatedly cited this. suppose that security threat from beijing in the indo pacific region where china is the dominant power on the signing of the orchestra. it's named security part comes just months after britain infuriated the chinese by sending its worships to the site, china c to join, so called freedom of navigation operations led by the us. china has condemned the new alliance, calling it through, back to the cold war. countries should not build exclusionary blocks targeting or harming the interest of 3rd parties. in particular, they should shake off their colewell mentality and ideological prejudice. we spoke

about a st least choice of military partners and deed where it could be leading with economics professor benjamin show. but 1st, let's hear from anti war activists. richard becker, there's no explanation. why are the u. s. and the u. k. now, at this time helping a straight ya develop a nuclear power suite of submarines and then turning around and saying this will advance the world peace. clearly this is about another war. this is about a war that is being prepared against china. the us leaders, they talk about the endo pacific just of course, and the term was made up to enable us to explain us leaders explain, bringing more countries into the anti china alliance, surrounded china. on the surface, we see that the u. s. and the u. k. is empowering australia to have nuclear

submarine. i think the under one key reason for this empowerment is the us in the ability to provide more defense budget, to support this large spending of nuclear power summaries. so it says it is forcing australia to share the cost of maintaining such ships and also strategic positions and also forces in china sea and also in the pacific region, especially now that there is increasing tension between china and australia. so china is watching very closely the next steps of this free country alliance. europe is really from a price shock on it to energy markets. natural gas rates hit an all time record on wednesday of almost a $1000.00 per 1000 cubic meters. that show you how that looks like that market

roller coaster on wednesday, the price picked at $980.00, which is more than 50 percent higher than 2 weeks ago. by late evening you can make out there are things that come in somewhat and unless they were to further volatility. well, the current crisis is being claim partly on energy policies being pushed by western governments are t. charlotte duban school can take us through that with news, the gas prices of historic highways. many people are already concerned about the difficult decisions that lay ahead high school. and also it's a bit scary. it's purchasing power that is decreasing. that puts more money in the pockets of shareholders of big companies. it will be quite difficult for many households. some will not be affected much, but most will be the price of gas is already high enough. i've already decided not to eat my apartments for a while longer. it's quite difficult in winter, but it's still inhabitable, if i put the heating back on at home,

the bill will easily climb to 250 years a month. i'm worried about this increase and the fact that will have my bills and the cost of living with what we have left at the end of the month. it will be complicated except for the money forgot. i hate my home with gas, you think crease the price of a year, a time will come when we will no longer be able to afford to keep ourselves warm. you would see is a real issue here in europe across the block, significant numbers of people say that they just simply call to food to keep a home room enough. prices why they sees me like you to find further, particularly for those who income such as pension is soaring. prices have been blamed on a variety of factors. both include the weather and even the tougher between european and asian bias liquefied natural gas. all of this has led to gas reserves long wishing levels. so why is you really facing such

a potentially winter? that is not purely a supply problem. it's not purely a supply chain problem. this is a monetary induced problem. part of what politicians do in this case is they've tend to concoct conspiracy theories to cover up for their own failures. so in the case of europe, everybody runs to blame russia. i think there's a lot of scrambling and it starts now around the world to try to figure out how to get the fuels to people who need it for the, for the, for the coming winter. but it's a little bit late in the day to be thinking about this right now. so i think we're headed for a very difficult 6 months. it's also claimed that the, you have been aggressive with a shutdown of coal and also its own domestic gas fields, coupled with a heavy carbon taxation. while at the same time, it happens, gotten quite enough to make up for that by committing fully to call and future this

tremendous attack on fossil fuel shills going on all over the western world, you know, in the name of abating climate change and so on. but it's been very reckless and, and it's, and it's really has injured the capacity of the market to respond to, to pi signals and to demand properly. so you have all these factors working in. so you've got the supply restrictions, artificial in many directions, regulatory restrictions and so on. and all of these things are combining from an economic point of view to drive up prices that are going to make people tremendously suffer and multifarious ways of now. and for the next several years. so what is the solution? well, you companies could hook to compete at a higher level with asian counterpart for that liquefied natural gas food that

does mean that there is the potential then the higher prices and phase ways. last week, the long awaited new stream to pipeline which runs under the bowl of exceed was completed. it consent, 55000000000 cubic meters of gas directly to your repair for you. that's enough to supply 26000000 household annually. russian company gas says it's ready to feel void that according to the country's government could solve europe's problems . there is no doubt that launching nord stream to as quickly as possible would significantly balance out the price of natural gas in europe, including on the spot market. that will though depend, don't be easier. so to find the pipeline, quick, sharp, fish, and accepting that it may need to bolster supply from russia. so what all you repeat in government doing right now will,

spain has already intervened to attempt to shield its population from higher prices, new emergency measures. we'll see profits problem with energy companies being used to cap the increase in gas prices. meanwhile, italy has said it will look at changes in energy sector to combust of expected 14 percent rise in retail power prices in the next quarter. what's clear is the, you need a strategy, and if it's to push ahead with plans to reduce reliance on fossil fuels, it needs to be deeper quickly. so the tv, sci fi, paris, me there is just a matter of hours to go now be for russians, cast their ballots in elections for the state, dim and of the countries laura of parliament. let's take a brief look at how the process will work.

the, the not a little happen within 3 days of voting from friday night to right. the week we've been examining the 14 parties all hoping voters will be putting a check in their box. we can take a look at another couple. now, the russian party are freedom and just this is among the left wing functions, taking part, it's pledging to build a more equal society with greater access to free education on healthcare. the parties leader told us why he thinks they deserve people's votes.

and also a nother party just to bring you another one right now. that's meaning mother land just to give you an insight into the party 1st. in fact, it's a right wing nationalist movement advocating for traditional values. it's demanding tougher immigration rules. and once moscow to spread its wealth to the regions rather than clinch to run one and a half percent support in the last election. so like many parties, they have a lot of work to do to improve alma, the party sure. took us through the main points of their manifesto. let's listen. which in morning every official should pass the test for patriotism and live in russia. if officials administers have families living here and not there, they will do everything to raise the standard of living in this country. are we going to lift russia if they want to work here and live there? if officials are required to live in russia, then a 3rd will immediately disappear. health care is one of the states priorities as

well. it's possible to rebuild our health care system in less than 5 years. the question is whether people really want that to happen, where the officials want it, they're all using private cab. i also vote against pension reform. i think the liberal blogs let the president down. they told us there is not enough money, but it's not true. but will the voters chime with those ideas? we will see in less than 24 hours, but it's not is when it all kicks off as the clock ticks towards election 2021 will continue our special coverage throughout the day. the ah ah ah

ah ah, i use seafood maybe red or orange always yellow. maybe we assume that they going to be on the sweeter find the things and procedures that are rounded, softer and the soon again, they're going to be sweeter. and the, the, me, the,

i log in now as we've been going through tomorrow, friday, russia heads to the polls for the state during the election. but what the clock ticking done splits are suddenly forming among the countries opposition parties. one has an unfit separation from the anti corruption fund. that's a group classified as an extremist organization on a foreign agent under russian law. let's go live now. charge eager shit done off for more. all this eager indeed. what's going on in the ranks of the russian opposition forces prior to the big vote then. so everything here unit is tied to the well to election of all, and one of russia's prominent opposition, figures for a long time, his structures, his so called anti corruption fund that you have just mentioned for a long time. it has been providing support to the doctor's alliance. it is a union,

they brand themselves as rushes, largest union for medical workers, and they boast some 3000000 members. so this is what they are this union. it wasn't created by lex and volley or his structures, but back in 2017 election of only figured that it was a good idea to start helping people unionize. to start helping workers union lines and promote the already existing unions. this doctor's alliance became the one of the 1st projects, and certainly the most successful one the, the, this anti corruption fund headed by election of only well been created and backed by likes and evolving this anti corruption fund. it has been providing all sorts of information support for example, to this doctor's union. this doctor's alliance only became known, big only became known not among medical workers, but among general public only due to their joint projects with alexis of ali and

his people. and now essentially they are accusing election of all the and his retinue, the people in his retinue of cutting old ties and abandoning them. here's what they're saying. the anti corruption fond was provide an informational aid to us, but once they stopped needing us, they forgot about us. they exported and cost us aside and very frustrated. the managers of the anti caption found, the destroying the very thing we have been working so hard to create bulk of donna from beth. you have chosen power and money. they don't care about people's faith. then i'll see it in europe, but someone is in jail. do you see the difference? anyone who believed nevada, these notes risk of criminal prosecution and no one will remember them when they will be put in jail and see, this is a big deal because these words were written by a person who once was well until now really was election of on these personal doctor and to see if a city was she even came to visit and try to visit alex in a volley as he was serving the what his term and one of russia's penal colonies

following his complaints about the quality of medical help that he was getting there. so she was one while she was definitely one of the closest allies in the volunteers. well, in the valley's political organization again, she never, she officially, she's never had any ties to the volleys political wing that he had created. but she had very, very close ties, like for example, election of all these fund helped them create the signature design for their doctors union. on top of that, the, the, the election of all these legal department initially did the bidding for the doctor for this doctor's alliance until they got their own department and formed their own department, hired their own lewis. and again, so to see of a city was election of only a personal doctor and she was, she was boosted into media prominence through alex and of only so now she's making a very strong accusation. and it is a very big ally, and a very big while to lose for election,

of only to lose for this fund that has been branded a and a for an agent and has been branded as an extremist by the russian government. so it is a big ally to lose for the valley and his people perhaps not good news for those parties on the eve of the parliamentary election. either rtp shipped out of bring us through that. i thank you. a man hunt is now underway in south west russian. after a man stormed a police station, injuring an officer before fleeing the scene. of the incident happened in foreign nay. that's the region of our nation factors run 5 30 in the morning, the attacker reported the fire to guns, detonated a bomb as well. after getting inside at the station were waiting. just for more clarification on what occurred, the police department did confirm that the attack took place, but the claim to get further details of this stage on it.

a vast majority of americans are unhappy with the countries direction under the biden's ministration. according to a new poll or us corresponding kilobytes and has been asking people why the dismay joe biden was supposed to end, that rising anger left over from the trump. here he was supposed to bring a new level of political peace to the country. remember, the last administration left us a dismantled and unworkable system we are dedicated to achieving and quite frankly, working around the clock to replace the cruelty of the past administration. well, that did not happen. a new poll from cnn shows that across party lines, 75 percent of americans say they are angry or very angry about the direction of the country is moving in a mid rise in crime corona virus, the immigration crisis, record inflation, among other issues. let's find out exactly why people have

a beef with biden disjoined, or i know the world not just as country the world. first of all, the things with it isn't always doing. and i believe with the whole off garrison doing you just straight up totally the whole again a stanford go wrong. you say he's making mistakes or perhaps the way to draw a gun at the whole thing. what have you and then he's not real. he's not the president, he's not people up control him. a lot of people aggravated disappointed with the way the cobra coverage is going. know could handle things differently, but what president could the lack of leadership? i don't think he's got a grip on anything that's going on at all. the white house, so it's rising trajectory come to a sudden halt. jo biden's approval ratings are now in the negative. the president was promising to be our fix it man, but now more than 8 months in it's looking like things are pretty broken. this has been caused by this prevalent, not just that entire cabinet, the ministration, starting with the horrific way that we withdrew from afghanistan. the way that we

left, not only the people here, but the way there are still american civilian track and then and then you go to some of the border. there is no text. this others where july new had these open policy has not dealt with it. and you see that kinda love the people coming to the border wonder, not tested for coven 19. they're not, they're not looked at. they're not read. there's a lack of transparency among administration. keep moving, credibility. you've moved the popularity every day. joe, by and everything ministration seems to do something that just makes it worse. fighting does not care. he's not doing anything that is bringing back the truck to the face of the american people on both sides of the aisle. he seems to be making matters worse. european union sees it's looking at ways the country rising chinese and fest meant but has brussels. they financial light to back up. it's fighting

talk been bust exam. it's not, it's next. oh, me the civic leg around the world expedition. 5000 miles round the clock and the dead calm in every country close by. it like the crew, gavin's food and one or 2 shots. those also looked on the blue link on the little thing. it's got everybody

locked down or almost no food and no. what about that? only give them up. sure. somebody stuck a speech in the cove. it you're living like the theme and of oem, but in the 21st century. ah oh right now there are 2000000000 people who are overweight or obese. it's possible to sell food that he's trying to eat and sugary and faulty and addicted not at the individual level. it's not individual willpower. and if we go on believing that will never change as obesity epidemic, that industry has been influencing very deeply. the medical and scientific advancement, ah, what's driving the reason for them?

it, it's corporate. mm. this is your media, a reflection of reality? in a world transformed what will make you feel safer? tyson lation, whole community. you going the right way? where are you being that somewhere? direct. what is true? what is faith? in the world corrupted, you need to defend the so join us in the depths or remain in the shallows. ah,

i have often said transfer fee for the powerful receipts for the last bit cares about privacy people care about is power. tony innocence has become a symbol of the battles of brevity. information is power. that's what's going on and a huge struggle with governments and corporations who want to keep information secret and others who democratic rights should be pushed forward. and people have a right to know what to do. watch how it sounds, helped to shift the conversation around transparency and see what that battle has done to him. i feel like julian's life might be coming to an end. we are in a conflict situation with the law just be the most powerful game plan. in such a situation, it's remarkable the

the boom, but the one business show you can afford to mit ambridge board. and i'm rachel blevins in washington coming up. could china belt and wrote initiative get some competition from europe? we'll take a look at the latest plan for a global gateway project and whether it will be taking off anytime soon. was natural gas prices are skyrocketing in europe. 6 during 35 percent in the last month, but will it be enough to get germany to clear the north seem to pipeline before winter is here? and since it began, the role of social media has been the democratization of the public fear. where all voices can be heard equally, but recent revelation from facebook may show that some users while they're more equal than others impacts.
