a oh, a breaking news on our t a water cannon until dallas are deployed by poland. does. it continues to resist the temp symbolic migrants to storm the border from beller roofs in order to reach the e. u. also coming up in the program, the russian defense ministry slumped, the u. s. has hypocritical after washington criticize moscow for testing a weapon in space when it's done exactly the same, both so ahead nobody likes to pay more. on average, we have the money to do so. mainstream u. s. media outlets repeatedly claim that americans are better off under joe biden,

despite inflation hitting a 31 year. a record citizens respond. we have to buy food and to do things like different ways. i don't think you save money. i definitely feel the and facia have more, so i'm good. i think a lot of people are out of work and they're spending their savings just to stay alive. and a regional government in australia is on course to get sweeping new powers in the pandemic bill. despite last ditch amendments, the public outcry. ah oh, live from moscow? this is our t. my name's unit o'neill and 30 minutes of news and views start. now we begin with breaking news, poland house, fire and water cannon and tear gas saucedo attempts to hold back

a surge of migrants trying to make it across the border from belarus, warsaw all seas. it's expecting the situation to continue for potentially months, and a, the spokesperson for the polish border guard has said its troops will use weapons without hesitation, if necessary. let's look at what's been playing out on the frontier then over the past few hours. ah. with basically what the migrants are doing, they are throwing whatever rubbish they can find as well as logs at the police look over there, they are throwing rocks and they're trying to dismantle that part of the bob while

i get and you can see them using purpose grades military grades self, so okay, we have to move out when you back up and go back to safety. so we will keep the broadcast. we'll keep showing in. c maybe we'll move behind the 1st fence that they have, that they have already dismantled and you can see people quickly to retreat from over there. now they have brought a water cannon. i think they, they're bringing to water can. okay, we have to move out. this is the sound and you can see more tear gas more tear gas canisters being used against the migrants here. now we can hear the approach of a military helicopter. it is a polish military helicopter. this has been used a as surveillance on behalf of the polish side. so you know, getting a birds eye view on the, you know, the location of all the migrants and also it is used as a scare tactic. it looks like heart of offensive part of a sense is almost down so. so the polish, the polish border patrol,

the polish military police, they have been they have been many that section of the fence more extensively than others. and there's also another water cannon. now helping out from over there, you can see it, you know, arching an arch in a spray of tear gas from a badly check point where the boarded check point is where we are right now. as close as we can get to the board. a check point where the, the majority of the action is going on right now. you can see a group of most active people pelting, pelting the, pelting them with the military police, the polish military police, with rocks. now, that's quite it's, it's quite interesting. where are they getting the rocks from now? because for example, if you look over there, there's a group of migrants. they are getting the rocks and providing their compatriots and providing other riots, migrants writing migrants with ammunition. this is what they're doing. and we've just been purpose grade,

i'm afraid this is what happens when this is what happens when you when you look this close to the action. it is, it is getting in the eyes that is getting everywhere. it's unclear whether or not they will, they will go on because they have put everything into this. they have put everything into, into this fight. so, so, so, so it's not clear as to how much, how much strength they can gather. as we mentioned earlier, the polish border force has said, guards have been authorized to use weapons, without hesitation, if necessary. thus, despite flooded, showing a number of children among the migrants, pegging for poland to let them in. oh, the west accuses bell, russo deliberately following migrants from the middle east into the area acclaim minsk denies both the u. s. and e. you are preparing new sanctions mineral. russia

has criticized poland for using tear gas and weapons against people stuck at the border with punish actions that absolutely unacceptable tear gas water, cannon shots, fight over the heads of migrants towards belarus. this reflects a desire to hide their actions. they cannot understand that they are violating every conceivable gnome of international humanitarian law. 3 bowers for its part claims continued. sanctions means it's no longer able to stop people seeking to cross the e u border. we discussed the crisis with a number of guests who feel brussels needs to do more to resolve the situation. a healing east with y'all, they can only impose sanctions, but that is a much sanction that they can impose on by roscoe's the comic lanes are cut or, or there are not many, anyway. oh, politically speaking,

they have for button on the, on the but i was aligned to land or to fly over europe on that is much more that can do the sanctions. it's just the word. it's totally inefficient instead of just words. oh, so in this instance, they are really annoyed by this problem because as you here in germany now, the player that these people should not come in, it's the exact opposite of what mrs. markham, setting 2015 off the shot from best they can call. they are fleeing the chaos caused by the united states and europe pin allies. they are trying to escape that chaos by coming to the one corner of stability in the world. the european union, which is greeted with a notarized fence and police and units, it really says something about the state. well, we are to day that we go round the world creating kayla and havoc. and yet we won't allow in 34000 people, men m highway educating thought those architects and so on. we can the european

union and the u. k. can absorb those numbers. no difficulty in states. we have a, a language being used to describe them. the weaponized asian as if they are weapons being used to damage the european union. the way that it talks about it is an invasion and so on, so forth. rather than saying these people trying to get a better life swaying chaos when danger seeking refuge in the european union. another country dance, dealing with a new influx of migrants, is around a popping fleeing to their from neighboring afghanistan. since the taliban took control of the country, but international aid organizations have actually cut refugee aid to to run something the u. n. has condemned. while nonprofit organization, the norwegian refugee council says 4 to 5000 people have been crossing from afghanistan in to, around daily. since the taliban take over, it's a about a month to 300000 refugees on top of the large number of displaced people that were

already in the country. the group recently visited migrant camps there to monitor the conditions. people are living in and we're joined live now on the program by lot much our own official representative of the n r c. who was among those making thought visit. you're very welcome to the program. like, can you give us a sense of the situation on the ground, how're migrants furring in a run? iran has been generously hosting african refugees for many decades. and while i was there, we spoke to several families who have been on the ground for a very long time in iran. and they all say that every family member, they speak with back in afghanistan and cobble and elsewhere in the country. all tell them the same thing that they're on the way to the border. it trying to find a way out there trying to get into iran because it's become absolutely hopeless to

live in afghanistan, much due to the economic collapse in the country. and those families, me spoke to say that, you know, they have so little already to share among so many and a worry that unless the international community steps up, give more support to neighboring countries of, of gas than they will simply not be enough to support everyone with their basic needs on the ground in iran is that the vital point then walked the international community does next because i want to ask, is there any understanding as to what might happened with the, the people living inside the comes we see as you've said 40025000 people, coming to iran every single day seeking refuge from afghanistan. and this is in a context where iran itself has economic challenges as a result of sanctions and, and coven 19. and so the ability of iran to continue generously, hosting thousands of refugees, $300000.00 recently arrived, but also the millions that have been there for decades without europe and the rest of the world, stepping on, ensuring enough funding so that they can provide and continue to providing

education and basic necessities to incoming refugees. we'll look bleak, especially as winters that's in afghanistan, and it goes to below freezing temperatures. it will be vital to both support people, enough gonna stand with additional support finding ways to get money into the country to solve the liquidity crisis, but also to help neighboring countries generously continue to host refugees and creates that safe pathways for those that need to flee to europe and elsewhere in you touched sullivan, but do you think iran will continue accepting refugees when international aid has been slash comic cope? it will be very challenging to cope and it's clear that they need support to be into need to continue to be able to host refugees. as i said, millions that have been there for decades. all of whom say, when the economy is in crisis, african refugees being the most vulnerable of the 1st to lose their livelihood, the 1st to lose their access to employment. nonetheless, iran does continue to provide education to refugees that come,

it continues to include them in the health care system that there has to be a point at which the international community wakes up, realizes that this is a major refugee crisis that affects us all and provides the support necessary, so to give one example, only 32 percent of the un refugee agencies appeal for funding for neighboring countries of afghanistan. only 32 percent of that appeal has been funded. this is not a 32 percent crisis. it's a 100 percent crisis will. thanks for giving us and indeed our viewers a sense of what's occurring there right now. lie, let much her official representative of the norwegian refugee comes from. thank you . a war of words has broken out between russia and the u. s over military activity in space that comes after washington accused moscow putting the international space station in danger, by conducting an antique satellite weapons test. russia claim the u. s. was being

hypocritical, saying it's been far more reckless in space. earlier i discussed the latest developments with our correspondent old quarter. there's been a lot of speculation and there still is really as to what exactly caused this debris generating event. and unsurprisingly, washington was quick to point the finger at russia. actually, the russian defense ministry has since reacted to that pointing to new a plus plans for space operations that the u. s. military had made back in 2020. so for russia, this whole situation seems a bit hypocritical. the russian defense ministry considers hypocritical statements by representatives of the state department and the pentagon, who try to accused the russian federation of crating risks for astronauts of the international space station in ton, the pentagon, both before these official steps and even more so after is actively developing and testing the latest strike combat weapons of various types in orbit without any notification. don't take us through than what led to this war of words interrupting

well, whatever this debris generating event was, it was enough to warrant the crew of the international space station to take safety measures against a possible collision. luckily, nothing was damaged, nobody was hurt, but the u. s. to state the u. s. state department, almost immediately after accused russia of launching a direct ascent missile to destroy a satellite in orbit, which they say caused the danger on the i assessed washington called it a dangerous and irresponsible behavior. the russian federation recklessly conducted a destructive satellite test of a direct ascent, an anti satellite missile against one of its own satellites. rushes dangerous and irresponsible behavior jeopardizes the long term sustainability of our outer space and clearly demonstrates that russia's claims of opposing the weapons and weapon ization of space are disingenuous and hypocritical. nato made its own statement backing up some of the earlier accusations made by washington. but as the russian defense ministry said, the u. s. has its own types of similar tests in orbit and there's no outcry about

those. and we also still don't know what exactly launched this debris into the path of the i assess so hardly a time for finger pointing ok. let's talk cash. america's soaring inflation is expected to spike further on the back of a 2 trillion dollar spending plant approved by president biden. prices arising out their highest rate in 31 years and it's hitting people hard in their pockets. not every once is worried so much of the u. s. media thinks everything's under control . a recently deleted tweets here from m s and b c even claimed soaring prices. they're not such a bad thing that prompted people to take to social media and offer their response to that suggestion. people not being able to afford groceries is a good thing or antics oliver more, more on selling us more money coming out of our pocket is

a good thing. no reason will ever make a reasonable person say, inflation is a good thing. amazon dessy believes inflation is a good thing that i will. wallison curse is disagree. m s n b c followed up with another tweet saying they deleted one, actually misrepresented the article, it was linking to. but the idea that soaring course or an overall good thing under president biden at least has getting traction in the media. he'll of mark and ask you yorkers if they agree with that. whether it's mel for gasoline, the prices of every day commodities are rising. american families are being squeezed now more than ever. some voices in mainstream media say the solution is pretty simple. stop complaining and deal with it. and the dirty little secret here, willi, well, nobody likes to pay more. on average, we have the money to do so. household savings had a record high over the pandemic. we didn't really have anywhere to go out and spend according to m. s. n b c house, stephanie rule, household savings hit

a record high. during the pandemic. we didn't have anywhere to go out and spend. we decided to put that theory to the test. people save us have gone up now and i don't think so because things are more expensive and we have to buy food and do things like different ways. i don't think you save money, especially way transportation and everything. i definitely feel ian facia and have more on food. you noticed a difference like in proteins and just in general, stephanie worrying. i don't know too much, not a great financial guy, but the extern says the economy is a little bit where anthony us, i think a lot of people are out of work, are spending their savings just to stay alive, honestly. yeah. what about all the people lost their job? a lot of those people are definitely spending their savings, myself included. what rules theory ignores, is that sense the pandemic? many americans have lost their jobs or seen a significant decrease in their incomes. the federal reserve is warning that inflation won't be stopping any time soon and that we should be expecting rising prices for at least the next few months. food banks across the country have never

been busier. hit with demand from desperate americans who are hit by the double whammy of rising prices amid a supply chain crisis. i would say that in our county specifically, we've seen a dramatic increase in food insecurity. we've had to make a lot of really tough choices. and so one of the things that we're always trying to reiterates is that we're still in the midst of a disaster. meanwhile, the specter of rising taxes hangs over many americans biden promises that he will only raise taxes on the altar wealthy. however, the tax policy center says that many middle class households could be effective. republicans say that biden's build back better plan for increasing spending will make things worse, joe biden, and comma harris and the rest of the administration. they don't care, they want you not to be able to fulfill up gas in your car. they want your electricity bill to be higher. they want your heating bill to be higher. of course it doesn't impact them. according to a recent poll, 70 percent of americans are dismayed by the current economic situation,

while 50 percent blame biden for soaring inflation. not surprisingly, biden's, popularity has taken a knock. now 51 percent of voters say they favor the g o. p. giving republicans the highest lead facing the mid term in decades. biden promised to rescue the country from a crisis that he blamed on donald trump. however, over the past few months, things don't really seem to have improved with the country financially squeezed. this could mean a big turn around when it comes to the mid terms. caleb martin, r t new york on olva comes at a time of plumbing slump dramatically since last year. we've got that story for you short. ah, now it shows seemed wrong when old rules

just don't whole. i mean you world is yet to say out d. c because of the african, an engagement across the trail. ah, when so many find themselves? well the part we choose to look for common ground. ah ah

ah ah, let's start back in australia where authorities in the state of victoria are expected to get sweeping new powers under a fiercely contested pandemic bill. the spite last minute changes on public fury. i. oh. all asians of protesters camped outside that state parliament in melbourne, venting their anger over the draft legislation in response. the government watered down essentially and bade to get the bill through the opera house. the key concessions are that fines for cobit rule breakers have been lowered. the threshold for declaring pandemic raised on the right to protest protected, that all follows weeks of public unrest. well,

the victoria premier has defended the bill, seeing it's up. i quote, keeping people safe. i'll not include safeguards to prevent abuse of power. meanwhile, a top health official in another australian state, queensland was issued a warning to people who refused colbert shouts. he said, vaccine hesitant citizens could effectively be banished from society. oh, they cries not to get back, said lawful the miserable without being faxed, that it is going to be very hard to maintain your employment if you not vaccinated or you won't be able to go anyway. 3 entertainment australia has an 83 percent cobit vaccination rates, while queensland is also high, had 70 percent. but despite reaching international heard immunity targets, australia seeking to rush it off the pressure on the on vaccinated. earlier we asked professor of epidemiology, katherine bennett, who's in the victoria state capital of melbourne. if the new builder is the right to response to the pandemic. part of the reason they argued that i'm having

a pandemic bill was going to be important, was that it would allow some of the decision making processes to become more transparent actually. but there was concern that when it came back that they didn't actually have some of the oversight automatically written in that would ensure that this was going to happen in that way. so it's really important to change its way saying in the last 24 hours, i think a key changes to help achieve what they plan to achieve, but without risking giving so much authority to someone who, who also is the person who calls whether or not they need to consult with paypal and what way saying is they trying to make the point that you need to get vaccinated? said just drawing a very hard line and trying to encourage people to vaccinate. but i think this, the reason, the epidemiological argument to support keeping unvaccinated paper locked out for the long term. it just doesn't make sense because the risk differential is, is, is very small. if you have such a small proportion of the adult population who are unvaccinated

americans trust in the most medium has slumped to its lowest level since 2016, it's taking a toll on mainstream tv networks. with cnn. seeing its prime time bureau numbers plummet, almost by half over the past year. our teeth on the armstrong picks up the story for us trust. they say it takes years earn and only seconds to break, and for ever to repair. for us, mainstream media, those seconds have turned into months of nose diving viewing figures amid a crisis of confidence on saturday, eights hop. see an ann report to ridicule reports of supply chain disruptions by taking a pop at average. joe, the supply chain, she exclaims, looking for milk for 2 year old look at this amazing overflowing abundance. he responds such contempt from u. s. media for the current difficulties faced by so many has led to wide spread

condemnation. with many americans bemoaning and outs of touch media, the is alienating its own audience. i don't see a thing there for this thing must not exist. this person calls himself a journalist. can't wait to hear a 3rd person commentary on gas prices. everything is fine in my bubble of reality. if milk is 300 percent the price, it was 2 years ago, but wages have only gone to 3 percent, and inflation is outpacing growth. abundance doesn't help or so please rename your show to literally anything that doesn't have the word reliable in it. it's false advertising. so the chasm in communication between the public and the press is widening major channels like m s, n, b, c, and c, n n. have seen their respective prime time spot nosedive by just under half of this whole tool viewership. but it's not just the democrat liberal media that's losing touch with its base fox news view a ship is down a 3rd from the same period just

a year earlier. now back then, the media consistently found ratings. thanks largely to donald trump, but in a biden era that's all changed. not so long ago, buzzfeed learned the hard way about dwindling audiences when the company laid off a 3rd of its staff. but not only both feed old u. s. traditional media have faced a year on year decline. just let the 10s of thousands of media jobs being white out, the media. so to announce the highest job cuts on record in 2020 this industry, which includes television and movie production, news and advertising, and as $30711.00 cuts. this is 201 percent higher than the 10201 coats announcing the sector in 2019. and while traditional media continues to report on an agenda, rather than covering issues at the heart of society that trust whereas ever thinner and ratings plunge ever further. perhaps by reining in their reporting by his just a little mainstream media won't just be doing their view as a favor,

but also themselves as well. we saw the thoughts of chadwick merger unless he thinks there's a growing rush between what americans want to see on their t v screens and what they're actually being shown. i don't think that this trust can be gained. i think that so many people feel so burned and deceived and misled by media. how do you forgive that? when you see just how corrupt they are and how much they think their heels in and continue to dig their heels in to their biases and their spin and their hatred of conservative republicans of average americans. it just needs a problem that don't interest them. they're interested in climate change, they're interested in race conspiracy theories, and they get themselves a report on that. i think that's also responsible for the, the tank ratings and the ever increasing divide between the people who deliver the news and the people they hope consume it. and the average people who. ready are just tuning out and they're not interested in what these people have to say. they don't speak to them this way. it's virtual summit between the american and chinese

leaders. so the issue of taiwan very much to the, for the bus since the talking points out, it's next with we're in our cells to be more efficient quicker with our transactions. but with that comes a trade off. every device is a potential entry point for security at any machine, and it's an extension of traditional time. the defenders have always been one step behind the attackers both permit when one comes option or it's not a matter of. if it happens, it's

a matter of went through all this is driven by drainage shaped banks concur some of those with ah, who dares sinks? we dare to ask a tooth . this is, boom. bought the one bedroom show you can't afford to mit down branch of or in

washington coming up there to supply chain disruption. we'll take a back the when president biden, and she prepare for their face off at a virtual summit. instead, taiwan is expected to dominate the agenda. we'll discuss what the had for the hotly anticipated discussion. then rapid inflation is making millions of consumers think twice when holiday shopping on sunday, treasury secretary, janet yellen, warren american muscle in as price are expected to keep creeping upward. we'll talk shop about when the economy might normalize. and later, britain and the e remain in a tug of war over trade following the contented breakfast deal we'll discuss. we've got a lot to get to less operate in and we leave the program with a virtual summit between us president joe biden and chinese president. she's in ping being held monday evening. this is a highly anticipated call between the 2 world leaders and there is much to talk about this.
