[000:00:00;00] with a significant encroachment into people's lives. the u. s. supreme court vote to block jo bivens cobra vaccine mandate for large businesses saying it exceeds his powers that wasn't stopped him for merging enterprises to implement the policy anyway. these were all heinous. no more. quinn, elizabeth, 2nd son, prince andrew, stripped of all military titles and band from using a char rapes metre, high profile, sexual abuse by turning viewers off american news broadcast fee and ends up as a devastating drop in audience figures declining 90 percent. when comparing the 1st

week of this year to last year with by the very good morning to thanks where she company this is our t international. now, russian foreign minister saga love ralph is giving his annual media conference today during which he is expected to some of the key results of russian diplomatic efforts over the past year. he's also likely to comment on the most pressing foreign policy issues of the day, among the nato expansion, the current conflict plus the recent crisis in kazakhstan and asked you to get underway any moment. we'll be listing in line to lever length. soon as that gets underway at the foreign ministry in central moscow, the, the while we wait for that, let's bring some break. can you 7 r t because australia's immigration minister has revoked tennis superstore? no joke of it. she's visa for

a 2nd time. and it means that the defending champion is now on track to be deported from australia. joke of jewels of faces, the possibility of being banned from entering the country for 3 years. this comes after he admitted breaking isolation rules after he called covey last month. will number one also admitted errors in the travel form that he used to enter australia for the grand slam, which gets under way next week. the stories just broken, any developments or reaction coming through. we'll bring it straight to you. on cobra mandates exceed the biden administration's authority. that is how the u. s. supreme court explained blocking the president's coven vaccine mandate for large businesses. it would have required staff that companies with more than $100.00 employees to get vaccinated would undergo regular testing. although congress has indisputably given, oh,

should the power to regulate occupational dangers? it has not given that agency the power to regulate public health more broadly requiring the vaccination of 84000000 americans selected simply because they work for employers with more than 100 employees. certainly falls in the latter category . it is instead of significant encroachment into the lives and health of a vast number of employees. furthermore, we have a situation where the health care mandate for health care workers has been upheld. now this was brought to the supreme court by a coalition of republicans and business owners and others who felt this was government overreach, that this was the biden administration and the white house kind of stepping out of downs. now we have a statement from the white house at this point, joe biden says he's disappointed and as result of his ruling, it is now up to individual employers as well as state and local governments to make these kinds of decisions. but then we heard from white house spokesperson gen saki, and she said that despite this ruling,

the biden administration is still going to put pressure on businesses in order to make sure their employees are vaccinated. a supreme court's decision on the osha mandate essentially means that independence pandemic is up to individual employers to determine whether their workplaces will be safe for employees, and whether their businesses will be safe for consumers as the president biden. i will be calling on and will continue to call and as and says to immediately join is those who have already stepped up. now at this point, despite the fact that this ruling has been overturned, we do have the white house and many of its allies adamant, so that there should be a mandate that they may have lost at the supreme court. but that hasn't changed their desire to push a mandate throughout u. s. society, but yet, this is another blow for, for the biden administration, at this point, they are coded response has been unpopular. these mandates have been very unpopular . ah, this is a victory for the opponents of the white house or who have opposed his mandate and

now have a supreme court ruling that is in their favor. we discussed this ruling, the peter earl, who's a research fellow at the american institute economic research. he said the court decision is a blow for bod holder showing very clearly that the by the ministration is railing in virtually every category which has been off. this is not a particularly talk weeks about his policies aren't having any effect on the spread of the variance, which was he could result. but with this on top of the december c, p i number, yesterday, it's difficult to see is reading left or the other hand, the lower the ratings go, the lower they can go. but i expect that the likely spin the by the ministration will promise is that, you know, we tried to save you. i was supreme court stopped us, which is absurd. but then again, this is the realm of politics. her body has also been challenged on another front with you, a supermarket struggling to fill the shelves, the president and this progress is being made in writing in the countries 40 a high inflation rates. he blames lashes. 7 percent surgeon,

food and gas prices on global factors is rivals, though they point the finger of blame squarely at the policies of his administration. under joe biden. everything costs more, store shelves are empty, and small businesses are struggling to hire workers and stay open. this trend isn't transitory, and it's all happening under democrats. one party control disgruntled shoppers, also a blaming the president, posting images of empty supermarket isles with the hash tag, the best shelves spied and by and recently claimed that supply chain problems they had been solve, saw colleagues that already america went to take a look for themselves this downtown washington area, they were finding the hardest here. all the cruising they are out. shelves are empty of beef, chicken, eggs, fruit and vegetables. even non perishable items difficult to find and some grocery stores. now in a normal year,

5 to 10 percent of food items may be unavailable. today, nearly 15 percent are out of stock that according to jeff freeman, president and ceo of the consumer brand. so he's ensure that reports bots. we do so because russia's foreign minister, saggy lover of is giving his traditional annual media briefing, he will be assessing the year just gone in terms of russian diplomacy in the major diplomatic events. let's have a listen and spanish prelim pharmacy. today we have a kind of a hybrid to fool murder, if you would, susanna. the question is she will be asked to make those present here in prison and to those present with us online? no, i would like to add that we will not be able to cover up all the questions, but all those who sent their questions in writing is convenience. if we are going to respond to, to, in writing after the press conference now over to cellular officer and mcclure

a colleague, good afternoon. you shouldn't know when we go. good. well, happy new year and health the old new years look new year is here for almost everyone apart from our eastern colleagues, some of them. so we will celebrate for one more month. i mean, the chinese new year, the eastern calendar, new year celebration was supposed supposedly. so we got back to work. those are from the very outset. but at the start of this new year, we have even sacrifice some of the holidays. but the situation in the world is such that we can allow not time arrest him to go. so i will not provide you with a detailed description. i'm sure that you are aware of the very detailed statements by president putin add to the extended college meeting of the ministry of foreign affairs in the ministry of defense. entered just recently, his statement at the press conference on the 23rd of december, so suitable for a couple of words, sir. on the current situation,

i'm doing their utmost to create the agenda for others. and those who do not join them are declared to be obsolete with them. and she's with her cuz they name them revisionist churches anyway, it's is trying to review the situation and to change the situation. but actually, this is the last one that is revisionist and their attempts to amend the un charter issue. okay. and we together with the countries that allister, that are our strategic partners and friends, we are defending the un charter sheets principles. it's structure, it's goals and we are trying to protect it from a need or use revision as activities. the most audius' project that was where it was took place for us to at the side of december, the so called summit for democracy, for the preparation for this meeting. and the event itself broke. and the result of

all this event announced by washington will prove that our colleagues in washington wanted to re ideal a joyce. our life needs something that we got rid of just recently. but now they are trying to create new lines of division, sierra williams, the united states policies and nato's policies that were declared as containment and deter, and so russian federation and china should we see continuous attempts to artificially expand nato chose to drag such countries as the crane into it, the still trying to use, we've recently heard very interesting statements coming from their nature leaders from their united states. could you know, excuse through that, to the scandinavian countries for years that are not part of nato. 3 of

those grooms of my will be welcome to join. so now they are trying to artificially tempt to those countries to artificially expand nato. and to this, sir, alliance cancels after the cold war after the treaty of war, so revulsion has no purpose. zuka replied to the attempt to artificial, expanded our continuing bitter glue in december. as you are well aware, we have provided the nato members and the u. s. with drafting the documents. that draft sugarland treaty unsecure to guarantees between russia and the u. s. one mirror and the draft agreement on ensuring security when you look between the russian federation and nato countries, sheriffs lawsuit, but as we have highlighted several times, these documents common package and seek local to utilize machines clued any further eastward expansion of nato and the deployment of

cross. can you hear me? yes, if you can to kristen. i had 3. i know steve, if you think that it's roger scott, mr. alvaro photography, governor for you've already mentioned the outcome. so the negotiations in brussels and geneva on our draft proposal, i would like to go back to this topic. now we are expecting an answer in a written form to our truck, to proposal from the you as to next week and from nato. ve during this week, i'm not sure but you are at the same time we can see that our partners with com said sometimes it's critical and the unethical negative. i'm not sure. but when it comes to the comments on very important provisions of those a draft agreement room, what actions would be undertaken, united russia, either those, the draft proposals would be refused by the us. and the nature of that was my 1st question. my 2nd question is, does russia consider so believe an expansion of its political and military strategic presence in some countries? thank you,

intricacies for bureau choice. who as for the 1st part of your questions, we ask you have said yourself and media ah, awaiting your losses. a written response from our colleagues. we believe that our colleagues youth, pastor, concrete understood the need to do this expeditiously. and to do, to answer us in writing problems, we will not wait forever and the plans to drag their hills over this process aren't laser skills. oh there's, we're aware that the prospects off the problem you are in reaching a consensus depends on the us, whatever they say about the need to talk to their allies, bruce and the need to engage. oh, the always, the members in those of go, rose to says there was a just hollow statements and attendance to drag out this process formula. when the

relationships between the nato and russia were forms when the foundation principles were outlined. when we reached the agreement to create the russia nato council school, when in the context of all of those processes between nato and russia, we have negotiated to leticia skew, the glory of vehicle agreement on police code of conduct, and onwards. future behave in the context. what was really all 4 arms armed forces, beautiful, silk wound and weapon systems is no one. she talked about consultations where they always see and horror that you, you and by the way, b, e. u is now disappointed as just a bro put it that they have been left behind. this is something we can discuss separately, but we want to see their response in writing point by point provision by provision of woocommerce in both draft documents. we want to receive

a response. this fits us for this doesn't fit us. if not, but why? form will if we can amend it somehow, if we can change the language of the provisions, maybe you can add something to these provided all in writing millimeters to such us roles for you mentioned something that's mostly from a been hyped in the media recently that the western response is focused around the very resolute interpretation of the need to move away from the open doors principal of the nato. no, you should have that. you should look, but i would like to highlight once again that we are not to go to linked by any agreements inside denito unity, drones. however, few russia, the ear americans need to members neutral countries are just very much

interlinked by our political obligations. under the o is see brooklyn. and in these context, no, i see provides us with a little more. you mean, if you wish, what you read bonus little with you and normative framework, the spreadsheets. but the emotional exclusively, because as we go to this back in the ninety's, an agreement was reached. buggery were which was about the in, at miss ability to undermine loser was individual secure attempts not to strengthen your security to the general mental you know, that of arthritis and in this legal documents it and good in, in the european security charter who data 1990 that was signed at the highest level again, excuse me. include 3 components, but you and ever one good. there are signature under these components. number one is something the west likes to vote. would currently have the right to choose ways to ensure your security,

including alliance treaties with the same document says by the way that each state has the right to remain neutral until you should remember that as well. the 2nd block that comes after these are in use and this block is integral part of the st raymond, of this compromise little book. it says that each state you shall arrest back to the rights of other states, angel note, or strengthen their security to the detrimental that of either at santa lucia. moreover, there is a special provision that under lease or criminal under this declaration, these charter, oh no state were a group of states. we're a no, no organization of youth through most you can be asian, mueller and more responsible for cor, interestingly you maintaining peace and stability in the euro, atlantic shoes, and you know, they can not consider any part of this region as they are influence fear from us and our nature,

my colleagues and then our american colleagues over the years i using actively using the 1st unit part of this package. and this package is a package deal. after all those, they are actively using the part that says that each country can join alliances and try to ignore the other party. but they are interlinked. they're indivisible, below. and we are not balance, may least norm returning chilion that says that each state has the right to fear allegiance, if a teeth applied. she's in crude violation of all the parts of lisa's interlinked package deal. this is something we had spoken about in great detail. we are currently awaiting a response in writing your hand after that, and if it's clear that it might make sense to resume negotiations, the issue that i have currently that i have just explained to me will,

will insist mostly on receiving explanations regarding our partners obligations. he said, lay undertook at the highest level it was, are you good looking? if our proposals are rejected, the please are you well, when it happens you should please or you were right her. if it happens use of the please let me remain optimistic. if it happens or will assess the situation, we will report to the president. and during his big press conference, he said that she believed in with you. she was in such a case, we would make our decisions. take him into account all factors including america, security interests, and there is no way to predict the future. something that our western college are trying to do. i believe that it's counterproductive. mom washing bocce completely like what we meet are concrete responses or the other proposals.

want them to have to do with our proposals that we put out in our documentary and be our key proposals aimed at preventing a negative scenario. you and in our shared region, you and i'm in your own who wouldn't puddle suitable, and in least case we'll, we'll continue to watch the reaction of our colleagues. and we will try to understand how serious of the, our, when to sherman, who was had in the american delegation in geneva. you later gave an interview and she said that, don't, you're not negotiations. that was, it may tend to study trousers physicians, well it's very eloquently because we came with arab positions that were formally, it finishes in writing months before it was
