to be switched from i me join me every 1st day on the alex simon show. and i'll be speaking to guess in the world, the politics sport, business and show business. i'll see you then in the, in the bond from spencer tracy as outlined the you as you can leave it out of the pacific security line, things as countering china. fine. and make an embarrassing phillip out while announcing the hiring, please forget and been a mobiles tread in prime minister. they keep doors and i want to thank that fell down under thank you very much appreciate supremacy. russia parliamentary actually takes off as polling stations in the far east,

open the doors to the class. devices will bring you the full breakdown later, the south and throughout the 3 days of ours and our special coverage. ah, this has been use and i'll seen to national with me you national paula. hello and welcome to the program. establish the bond that has seen infringe officials described at pacific secures upon between 3 or with allies. the us version and australia seen as an attempt to counter beijing all sees shonda. edward dash c is following developments. well, put it this way. for the french, it seems like australia was only with fraud until a better deal of came along, which invariably it has australia originally asked france to help with the rain mission but has now walked away and walking away also comes with scrapping

a 90000000 year road deal instead, australia now wants to assign this tax with the united kingdom and the united states, which for the french, they say it's a stop in the back, but it's a sub in the back, we had established a trusting relationship with a trailer and mrs. john trey was poly less, one feels the american choice to exclude the european ally and partner such as franz from a structuring partnership with australia at the time when we're facing unprecedented challenges in the, in the pacific region showed the 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 and consent over china and its regional dominant onto 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 7th country in the world to get a nuclear saw just the last time that the united states allowed such capabilities right here to the united kingdom some decades ago are very grand gesture indeed, however, it's not just the likes of france are quite upset by the signing of this new security prox, but neighboring countries like new zealand who have long been walking towards nonproliferation in the region. the center piece of it is nuclear powered submarines. no part is very well versed in understanding the position of nuclear with vessels and weapons. our legislation has no vessel, holy, or fully powered by nuclear energy can enter internal waters. but look, britain 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 to one of us in its own strategic planning. in fact, the block 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 wider political backlash than just that of china. and we got reaction to the story on the streets of paris for you, missy. but when you finally, this is not the 1st time that the united states has take content from very good. because we do not respect anyone to act like they shouldn't have done because i think it front on the same they wouldn't complain. they couldn't, they wouldn't have liked to. maybe we'll see if the current president is better than a represents a lot of money, but a lot of jobs,

but it would be better for making other things, but it's a little just honest, i suppose. and the other hand, they were closest which allowed them to break the contract before they started making the submarines know if they have a good for a person to see that a contract has been broken. he has happened to me personally, always paragraph included, but it must be just, you have to have a good reason. you'll find a standard correctly the united states is a competitor for so of course it's not a good thing that there should have been talks between the french and the americans . that friendship between washington and cambra might not be as close as it seems. what announcing the security deal president barton appeared to forget the name was trellis prime minister scott morrison. it bores me, and i want to thank that shuttle down under. thank you very much. appreciated as to privacy, australia, the us and france have repeatedly cited the suppose security threat from beijing in

the pacific region where china is the dominant power. and the signing of the security of hawks does come just months after the basie burson, after britain and the rate of the chinese by sending its war ships to the south china sea to join, so called freedom of navigation operations, led by the us. china has condensed the lions calling it a throwback 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 cold war mentality and ideological prejudice. and we spoke about trade as choice as well, if she partners and way could be leaving with economics, professor benjamin child and will activist richard becker. there's no explanation. why are the u. s. u k? now, at this time helping australia develop a nuclear power suite of submarines and then turning around and saying this will

advance the, 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 no 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 k is empowering australia to have the nuclear submarine. i think the under one key reason for this empowerment is the us in ability to provide more defense budgets to support these large spending nuclear power summaries. and so it is forcing australia to share the costs of maintaining such ships and also

strategic positions. and also in the hope china region, especially now that there is increasing strong china and china once you're very closely the next steps of free country alliance down on europe is raining from a price shock on its energy market. natural gas rates have an all time record on wednesday of almost a $1000.00 per 1000 cubic meters. this is what that market read a coast to look like. on wednesday, the price picks at $980.00, which is more than 50 percent higher than 2 weeks ago. by late evening, things come down somewhat, but i'm they sound warning of that volatility. the current crisis is being blamed. pod loan energy policy has been pushed by western governments. as i'll say, charlotte davinsky takes us through with news the prices of his story

ties. many people are already concerned about the difficult decisions that lay ahead high school. and also it's 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 will not be affected much, but most will be the price of gas is already high and i've already decided not to heat my apartments for a while longer, and it's quite difficult in winter, but it's still in habitable. if i put the heat back on at home, the bill easily declines. 250 years a month. i'm worried about this increase and the fact that we'll have in my bills and the cost of living with what we have left at the end of the month, it will be complicated. next monday. so forgot, i hate my home with gosh, if increase the price of a year 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 number of people say that they just simply call to food to keep her home warm enough prices. why? she's only likely to point further, particularly for those who income such as pension is soaring. prices have been blamed on a variety of factors to increase the weather and even the total between european and asian bias liquefied natural gas all of face has led to gas reserves long wishing level. so why is you really facing such or potentially when that is not purely a supply problem, it's not truly a supply chain problem. this is a monetary induced problem. part of what politicians do in this case is they tend to concoct conspiracy theories to cover up for their own failures. so in the case of europe, everybody reads 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 fuel the 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. i think we're headed for a very difficult 6 months. it's also claimed that you have been aggressive with the shutdown of coal and also domestic gas fields, coupled with a heavy carbon tax station. while at the same time, it haven't gotten quite enough to make up for that by committing fully to carbon future this tremendous attack on fossil fuel chills 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 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? will be you, companies could hook to compete at a higher level with asian counterpart for liquefied natural gas food that does mean that there is the potential then the higher prices phase always last week. the long awaited new stream to pipeline which runs under the baltic sea was completed the consent, 55000000 cubic meters of gas directly to you repair per year. 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 problems. there is no doubt that launching nor 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 on the you certifying the pipeline quick shawl fish and accepting that it may need to bolster supply from russia. so what all you repeat in governments doing right now will, spain has already intervened to attempt to shield its population from higher prices . new emergency measures will be profits problem with energy companies being used to cap the increase in gas prices. meanwhile, italy has said that we'll 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 put your head with plans to reduce reliance on fossil fuel, it needs to dig deeper quickly. show the tv sci fi, paris. lower with close ties to the democrats is said to be charged was lying to the f. b. i about links between team trump and russia. back in 2016. that's according to media report. he is on his time from sy purporting from washington dc. the special counsel john durham, he was appointed by a former president, donald trump. he has charged a man named michael sussman with lying to the f. b. i are making false statements to the f. b i by not disclosing that. he had worked for multiple clients including the 2016 presidential democratic nominee hillary clinton. so here's how it goes in a meeting with the f. b i almost 4 years ago to the date, september 19th, 2016. it was a meeting between susman general counsel or special counsel john durham,

and the f. b. i general counsel james baker. now, in that meeting, susman told baker that he had suspicions about an alleged secret communications between the trump campaign and russia. those suspicions later found out to be entirely false. sussman lied about the capacity in which he was providing the allegations to the f. b. i susman stated falsely that he was not doing his work on the aforementioned allegations for any client which led the f. b. i general counsel to understand that sussman was acting as a good citizen, merely passing along information, not as a paid advocate or political operative, but in fact, sussman acted on behalf of specific clients, namely a u. s. technology industry executive, a u. s. internet company and the hillary clinton presidential campaign. now the indictment says that the ally was material because it misled the f. b. i about the political nature of sussman work. now while the special council and the f b, i are your on board with assessments, indictment. you do have his lawyers that deny any wrong doing. take

a listen. mr. susan has committed no crime that the prosecution here would be baseless, unprecedented, and an unwarranted deviation from the a political and principled way in which the department of justice is supposed to do its work. very confident that if mister susan is charged, he will prevail at trial and vindicate his good name. now, a very interesting note here you did have the now president joe biden justice department. they actually allowed this indictment to go through. it was sussman lawyers actually tried to stop it through attorney general mirror, garland. he ended up pushing it through again. now at the september 2016 meeting, sussman passed along analysis from cybersecurity. experts who reported that internet data raised the possibility of speaker communications between the trump campaign and the russians largest commercial financial institution alpha bank, which then that was pushed by the hillary clinton campaign, all across the mainstream media. and it was

a big topic of the 2016 presidential campaign, the entire trump presidency throughout the entire trump presidency. trump denied vehemently deny these allegations as well as russia. now one of the big questions is why is this all happening now? the reason why is the statute of limitations expires on sussman meeting with the f b, i general counsel, and it's unclear whether durham's prob will continue to be funded past the end of the governments, the fiscal year on september 30th. one of the big things here is if you lie to the f b i, it is a federal crime. and if you are caught and found guilty of misleading the f b i, that will wipe you down with 5 years up to 5 years and federal prison reporting in washington d. c. faren frontenac, r t o 's, he's investigative media project. read fish has had his page on instagram deleted by the platform. it follows a similar move by facebook. in april this year,

before its page was blocked, restoration had 400000 followers. it had been facing increased pression within times, such as its content being labeled, rushing control, media, rakfish, counterfeit, both instagram on the science of facebook for an explanation of the your instagram account got deleted either because you violated one or more of instagram's community guidelines. or because of a mistake, once in instagram account is deleted, you can't restore it. companies like facebook and instagram. they have more power than any cooperation before them, or any government before them has over the media. but they're less accountable and less transparent than ever before. and we've tried over and over again, so reach out to somebody at facebook and instagram and to for them to explain why this is happening or to challenge the decision. but we constantly faced brick walls . and guess who i spoke to fail. it's warring,

how much control the social media drones now wheeled he need to say to people, look, if we're going to take something off the platform, here's the reason you've done that. these companies also dominance. now you cannot exist as a modern company as a molten individual, as a multi governmental institution without access to facebook, without access to instagram. and so when these companies take away the free speech of people, actually, they are hugely damaging. it's not true to say if facebook take you down, you can move somewhere else. no, you can't. this is censorship and they're going to take the, the position that these are private companies. so you know, they can do what they want. they don't have to justify or give an explanation of why they take a whole established channels down in the case of red fish. this could sort of censorship, i think, is geopolitical because it's affiliated with, with russia, with r t tangentially any way. then it becomes

a problem and so the censorship takes on a whole new kind of weight, geopolitical weight and less number to the heart of moscow and our election h key overlooking red square also is new. they brings you out in depth coverage of the elections to the state duma, which is russia's low house apartment. voting, as we said, is held over 3 days. it's extended on previous versions going from friday to sunday . and that means that the rest is far 8th. things are already begun earlier on thursday, the rest of central, the election commission opened up a video will. this will broadcast the entire election process. clearly, this is about transparency. the commission says there are more than 100000 cameras of polling stations. this is so that people can observe how the elections are being carried out. the transmission develop to all the participating parties, the public to can watch the broadcast in $86.00 special election centers across russia. but even before any ballots have been cast,

moscow was already furious about alleged foreign interference. and it's handed over evidence said to prove just that to the state department in washington, krista and i believe that it was stressed that the russian side has concrete evidence of violations of russian law by the u. s. internet platform, in the context of preparing and conducting the duma elections. it was stated that interference in the internal affairs of our country was categorically in a civil man. we had all the pass relevant information from our embassy in washington to the department. now this comes as google and apple earlier invited to attend a special security session of russia's parliamentary commission to explain that position. the head of that commission said that evidence of meddling in russia is the 1st mind. both those companies has been presented to the us ambassador to moscow nowadays after the tech john failed to renew voting related content adapt may by organizations, but russia considers extremists. the ease also been accused of trying to exert

influence over the vote after the block past the motion, allowing it to potentially not recognize the results of the election if they are quote, seen as fraudulent. more than 100 members though, voted against may even some of them are plenty to say about it. this isn't a serious credible document. it's actually a van, a phobic round. much of the information is false, misleading. on one side it's, we surround russia with nascent basis, and we call them the aggressor. we support opposition groups and we accuse them a foreign interference. the european project is not being undermined and divided by russia, but by the rank hypocrisy that is characterized in this report. it tells me that it is time to involve on a positive dialogue with the russian federation is trying to stop listening by the american continent. right, to make a choice in flavor of good relations with russia. early on i spoke with the

professor of the moscow state institute of international relations about a bond pieces, despite the stance, it'll still have to work with the new russian legislators. anyway. it's quite interesting. i've read today, recommendation on parliament today, and it was a topic just topic. we must not recognize the new russian parliament if the elections will be fraudulent. but at the same time, we must walk. we've been u d p just to somehow or maybe or a to change the current process regulation needed place and then the next saw. so not recognizing and trying to engaging is not quite threatening to say that before the election rather than wait and then say look, we have this evidence of wrongdoing which would be completely reasonable. sure, sure, that's true. but there are 2 ways to control the actions to monitor they don't want to send are we all up servers? and another approach you cannot find anybody here. you can just check the internet . you can just check social networks. you can speak with

a representative of civil society or position or whatever you name them. and so the piano of service, they could not go to moscow to, to feel if they can just check and copy and paste what the ration of position was saying someone could make the accusation about itself is, is meddling from the you in the russian election. if for i now want to go for their actions and, and i see from the union of which i think by default every body and that's the russian, the post coming russian elections are problem. and so what are you going for me to go there? so, so each would influence a bad behavior over the scene. water mart. i think that after the elections eve, they will recognize the actual such problem and will not recognize the problem. and

i think at the same time, they will continue to walk because they have to do it to be the rush. if the you is concerned about the integrity of russian elections, should they be focused on the allegations that russia is making? that is interference coming from outside russia. 100 evidence over to the us state department saying that some of the big tech platforms are allowing citizens to access websites they say, belong to extremist organization. all these nice course oldest talk on not free elections within russia is going on the social media. and there is a larger question called the i t giants who corporate national, conscious international nation. and now this problem is really sharp because the russian courts are starting to or issue some flying some multi 1000000 fines on the giant from 40

started to wait, but not everybody saw that's the question of most of compliance to the state lead to the state legislation. to the court, and so it's quite, it's quite difficult. we will have resolute it in one day. sure. but i think this some logic in the rush and looking shall faith most weekend. well, how petitions are related. it varies from country to 3. so let's take a more precise look at exactly how the process works in russia. ah, the, the, the.

well, that wraps it up from me here at ortiz election headquarters for this hour. we will continue, of course, with in depth coverage over the next few days at the i or x markets, the thing food shortage in and was big claim data for market. that's the plain and simple truth and country after countries beginning to realize they can escape the b matrix for x with dominated by current players to control us dollar. and they can have sovereignty true sovereignty. if you have rely on the us dollar, you do not have sovereignty. both

living like the female of own. but in the 21st century, i see that i maybe red, orange or yellow. maybe we assume that they're going to be on the sweet side of things and procedures, rounder, soft, and soon again, they're going to be sweeter in some way. you know, you mean many people in life works on and then you meet the goals of the world, julio, like one of the few people to come out of the cosmic wave ride of childhood, start that big and be a solid citizen with his own daughter. now and his own happy life, he continues where he's got a great podcast now and we'll talk all things. julio white right after this. dennis
