president and media outlets that are usually very joe biden friendly, starting to grumble that he should not run for another top ah, life from moscow in a 100 countries worldwide. welcome to your friday program on our to international. russia has published a list of proposals for deescalate intentions with nato. that's after the lion's vow to continue its expansion and accused moscow of aggression in ukraine. and after explaining moscow's toms. russia's deputy foreign minister said is now up to the western military alliance to reciprocate. we did it was a me it, sir. yeah, we saw yesterday's text from nato. there is nothing new there. so we'd be making proposals, but in return only get ultimatums. we were told it's up to us now the choices nato's, whether moran, as you mentioned, 2 different proposals. one is for the united states,
8:02 am
which is slightly more detailed, but largely the same. there's also one to nato as a whole. and the gist of it is that we all need to pull back from the brink to de escalate to stop threatening each other. it's right there in article one that there needs to be a healthy respect for each other's need for security. and in that vein, it proposes a manner of a whole range of practical steps. in order to achieve that, the parties shall not use the territories of other states with a view to preparing or carrying out an armed attack against the other party. it is no secret, of course, not to you, not to of you as that the things have reached the i wouldn't say, a chasm, a chasm. we're on the brink, where in the past we had talk of sanctions and you, you know, accusations of ill behavior. now we're hearing things about an escalation towards
8:03 am
war, a repeat of the cuban missile crisis. and so russia proposes i, again, a range of steps including issues that are very sensitive to rush. and that is at the station in increasing station of intermediate in short range ballistic missiles . near russia. the parties shall not deploy land based, intermediate, and short range missiles in areas allowing them to reach the territory of the other parties. at this point, i mean, russia is referred to as an adversary in the, in the military doctrines of the united states, um, other nato countries. and these proposal seeks to eliminate that. we need to start afresh. we need to change what we call each other, stop again, threatening each other either politically, economically, militarily, in some cases, which have which of course, quite the shock incidents where seen constantly in the black sea, for example, with increasing nato military presence there. and what russia once is
8:04 am
a return to the security situation of 1997, which is just just off that i did. i did. 7, nato expire expanded towards the east. and now we're seeing more and more american troops, nato equipment being stationed near russia's borders and russia. once that the stop nato states committed themselves to refrain from any further enlargement of nato, including the accession of ukraine as well as other states during a press conference. all of this was unveiled by the way, by the russian foreign ministry during the press conference journalist, including many from, from western media outlets were there. and one of things they said is, aren't you asking for too much? i mean, this is, this is essentially a wishlist of everything that marshall want. and here russia says, look, this is, this is a draft. this is our proposals. things that we're prepared to work with,
8:05 am
work around that top of my somewhere, but perhaps compromise elsewhere. but the error of russia must do this. russia must do that. russia being dictated to ease ease over at the nebulous motor. this is not an attempt to revise. the post code will order. it is a response to western expansion which has been conducted in a hostile manner. unfortunately, there isn't much cause for optimism so far. the russian form and as she says, its proposals have been rejected who are being rejected. i am by nato states by the 2 countries, the european union. and here, the problem is that both sides of voiced this opinion that things much changed, that we want better relations. but every practical step taken to improve those relations to take steps to deescalate their met with unfortunately, the russians say rejection. the manchester arena,

obama may have been radicalized by a former nato soldier, turned terrorist that was revealed during an inquiry into the atrocity on thursday . senior figures from the you case counter terror police and a home office gave their closing submissions. it's give you a quick reminder exactly what happened in 2017. it was a salman of betty detonated explosives in a stadium hosting and arianna grand concert 22 people were killed. hundreds injured, of course on an e could have done up. now look related to come from huh. he murdered 22 people in one suicide last. now a public inquiry is trying to establish what turned a hard core party go up into a suicide bomber. and how it could have been prevented the probe was yet to deliver concrete answers. but over the past couple of years, it has yielded plenty of disturbing revelations. these pictures unearthed by the inquire,

8:10 am
a wide range of libyans involved in the conflicts against the cathy regime forces it is likely that this included former members of the libyan islamic fighting group and the 17th of february, march is brigade as part of our broad engagement. during this time, the u. k. help to rebel groups of various degrees of extremism did not, and their britons a lead troops were caught on camera in libya, despite official assurances at the time that there were no boots on the ground, them, there was no other choice but to admit their reality. if the malicious and her error bellows had not been there playing a key role, i am not so certain that air bala would have resulted in godaddy's downfall in the way did. who had a few people embedded with them, not up front, so to speak, but beckoned barriers. rebel groups firepower grew. nato was dropping bombs by the 1000 and qaddafi while eventually fell. and with him went down libya's security and

8:12 am
humanitarian groups off sounding the alarm. the banking system has collapsed and the countries on the brink of mass starvation situation that is expected to intensify over the winter. good links to means even more. like spending the whole day in line since against some friend at 3 loaves of bread help us veto children, wear the sin and truly the baker says here from morning to make it for 3 loaves of bread. the price of bread has skyrocketed with hundreds of people including women, the children and the elderly. come to the bakery every day and make for bread. people live in poverty prices pink, long, a loaf of bread, yeast cost $10.00. i've connie's, but now it is 20. 23000000 people face acute food shows, juice this winter. that's more than half the country's population out to the

ah ah ah, it is good to have you with us to day now with a co that on the rise again in america about a 150000 new daily infections. a president biden has given a bit of a grim warning to americans who have not been vaccinated from vaccinated. we are looking at a winter of severe illness and death on vaccinated for themselves. their families and the hospital will soon overwhelm. the u. s. has passed another grim at milestone a reportedly 800000 covert deaths to date. it comes at
8:17 am
a time of soaring inflation and very high living costs, all of which basically having a pretty negative impact on the popularity of the man at the helm. his aunty is nikia, a tragic milestone bind and cold it unties right. the number of cov, a death in the u. s. is now about equal to the population of atlanta and st. louis combined. the toll stands and more than $800000.00 a grim figure, which has doubled in a single year. it's a heavy burden for any president to carry in his 1st year in office. but it seems that president biden took some convincing on the gravity of the situation. was was 200000 where preventable death lives looks when vaccines wo readily
8:18 am
available. and the old habits of blaming donald trump is no longer going to work. just over 4 weeks ago, america had no real plan of action. i, most of the country, my predecessors, my mother would say, god love them failed order, and of vaccines fail to mobilize the effort to administer the shot. fail to set up vaccines centers that changed the moment we took office, as by the now uses his influence to encourage people to get vaccinated. won't turn help, but wonder where the trust and the presidents woods has been on the mind vaccinated . 57 to me. 570 to me. i don't want to read, i'm not sure i got the right number. the total number boosters is what it is $77000000.00 boosters. we have a roughly 350000000 people and actually united states. and
8:19 am
as biden comes to the end of what was expected to be a common gear after trans post, so that almost at 70 percent of americans have reservations, where the bind and is a leader. they can believe in no doubt not helps by his multiple fo par, like cracking jokes about kentucky after the state was ravaged by killer tornadoes . by kid say, the best thing ever came out of kentucky was my sister in law. the president's performance this year has also been enough to turn some of the mainstream media against him just months ago. the future look to bright as for cost as spoke optimistically about how life with buying in at the helm would play out. but the tune has changed with some media outlets now, urging bitin against another run. combined president joe biden's age. he'll be a to, to shortly after the 2024 election and his ongoing political struggles. he's mired
8:20 am
in the low fourties and job approval and you get this a series of stories examining with abide and runs again, and if not, what might take his place. so what's the president to do? he should announce much sooner than later that he would not run for a 2nd term. the argument against this is that he would instantly turn him into a lame duck presidents. and that's undoubtedly true. bought news flush right now, he's worse than a lame duck. the white house press secretary, however, se if the president has every intention of keeping his job, whether the country will concur is another matter. well, american society being split along party lines could be, quote, irreversible, and dangerous. thus, the finding of a new academic study, which concludes that division in america is close to tipping point. it claims that polarization has gone so far that americans will find it difficult if not impossible, to unite even if faced by a threat such as war. a political commentator and artic contributor lauren chen
8:21 am
gives us her take on how things go to this point. political division in america is at an all time high right now, and it is no secret that by and large the corporate press are not fans of conservatives. after all, they have been calling them not season white supremacists for going on 5 years now . and perhaps it is because the rhetoric against republicans was already so strong that now leading up to the 2020 to mid term elections. and yes, even 2024 general elections. it seems like the new way to demonize, anyone who would dare to support donald trump is not just by calling them ideological extremist as we've been seeing. but to actually go so far as to imply that they are physically a literally dangerous and an actual threat to democracy. and if you think that's just hyperbole, check out this op ed from the washington post in his piece. our constitutional crisis is already here, writer robert kagan lamented that quote, the united states is heading into its greatest political and constitutional crisis since the civil war with a reasonable chance over the next 3 to 4 years of incidents of mass violence,
8:22 am
a breakdown of federal authority and the division of the country into warring a red and blue enclave. and to be clear, a far from believing that potential political violence could be a both sides situations where democrats and republicans alike end up taking arms for their respective causes. commentators like kagan and emerson, b c's, john heilman, make it clear that in their opinion, the threat of violence comes solely from the right, at least 8 percent. and maybe as many as 12 percent of the american people now say the job was illegitimate. and that violence was an appropriate tool to remove human restored. donald trump considering that throughout 2020 large scale political violence was almost exclusively left winger rena, with many american cities being burned or looted under the guise of b, l. m, and t. for activism. hearing the corporate press now trying to paint conservatives as the real threat of domestic terrorism in the country might seem disingenuous. and so with all this discussion of political division and even violence,
8:23 am
it should come as no surprise that the car of secession has even come back to the main stream. in fact, as a bloomberg opinion piece recently noted from tax it to the new california republic poles in the us do show strong support for splitting the nation among blue and red lines. and although the concept of balcony zation or succession is still regarded as an extreme suggestion by many in the media, if term supporters and republicans really are as violent and bigoted as they would have us believe that shouldn't they be jumping at the chance to separate themselves from them or perhaps are the allegations against conservatives. merely smears meant to keep them out of political power. all while allowing democrats to enact legislative control over them with the world are still preoccupied with cove. it scientists are wanting of a possibly greater threat in the form of ancient viruses that are lying dormant under the arctic ice. a russia is taken the lead with this coding on the arctic
8:24 am
council. the start examining such viruses urgently as melting permafrost means they could, if nothing's done, we unleashed on humanity deadly ancient viruses, revive horror movie. no reality rushes permafrost is melting. viruses and bacteria is that we trapped and frost for thousands of years. now could wake up. there are extremely good papers that say yes, you can revive bacteria from deep permafrost. russia establishes an organization to examine these threats with it, but i sure there are a number of well documented outbreaks of paleo infections that had arisen from thermal degradation of permafrost. and the arctic and sub up to greens, anthrax,
8:25 am
smallpox, tuberculosis, one virus, has already been found. the pits, a virus has defrosted from the pound of frost and right after that it started attacking and killing amoebas. luckily it is not harmful to humans. but what else is hidden in the frozen soil? what is awaiting us in 2022. you can read a much more about that right now at the russia section of r t dot com will. thanks for joining us here for this part of the friday program. certainly more headline still to come when we return or the top mm. ah ah.
8:26 am
a happy hey. i know you said i it had been done not allowed them to get them outside on mechanic and by then coffee. so she has an ard at a by then is a shift or a foursome with multiple multiple gyms or more kind of connect there. so that gives a few help was but it shows a lot of help with what i can the
8:27 am
8:28 am
isolation, holcomb unity. are you going the right way? you being the direct? what is true? what is faith? in the world corrupted, you need to descend her join us in the depths or remain in the shallows. ah, the word can be powerful, but numbers are almighty, especially if you are an american politician. in fact, numbers are the top influence of a public policy today. whether you are talking about popularity or dollars and
8:29 am
cents, politicians often look to the numbers to guide their agenda. now none is more true except in regards to police reform, wherein the most liberal cities politicians pushed their deep on the police rhetoric onto their voters because it was the popular thing to do at the time. however, as these same politicians are seeing, this policy is dangerous as the violent crimes and murder rates in those same districts have caused them to lose their popularity. you don't have to be too intelligent to see the correlation between the reduction of law enforcement and the rise in crime as related. so as the cost of the politicians pandering paid for in blood and violence in their own streets. our panel we'll discuss now. speaker policy doesn't own stock herself, but that doesn't mean her husband doesn't have a very comprehensive portfolio including stocks which have direct connection to legislation, which the speaker herself is involved in. but guess what?
8:30 am
it's all completely legal. but is it not just the elected who are taking advantage of the insider information? if they're top staff members who are also possibly using the opportunity as well? we're going to bring you all the details. and you remember the counters on most media outlets during the pandemic which displayed the loss of human life to cove it on a ticker. now those have disappeared, but that doesn't mean no one is dying from cove. it. in fact, the latest numbers actually show more people have died from covert this year than last. so what does that number tell us? and why isn't it being reported in the wine industry, which the majority is built on numbers, and maybe a little walk is the gaming sector who is having a record year. but in a time where the economy is strapped and inflation is skyrocketing, where's the money coming from? i'm going to use and we're going to break down the numbers and these stories and more on trade news views use.
