5:01 pm
joe biden is caught on a hot mike insulting a journalist who had been trying to get answers from the president over record inflation numbers. prime ministerial partying, belief in the u. k. law and shun investigation into potential locked. i'm breeches by boris johnson's government following a series of revelations or by boozy shin diggs and dawning street. ah. from moscow to the world, this is your r t. my name's unit o'neill than you're welcome to the program. let's get into our top story. croatia said it will withdraw its forces from ne, so units in eastern ukraine, eastern europe, excuse me, in the event of a conflict between russia and ukraine. now that statement from the countries president came just hours after the u. s. put more than $8000.00 troops and high
5:02 pm
alert over what it claimed would be a russian invasion of its neighbour. moscow has always repeatedly denied any such corporation president zora milan. of ich making so many century comments on tuesday . he said that if there is a conflict between ukraine and russia, he would order croatian troops to pull out of deployments that they're involved in with nato. now this was a statement. it's not only unlikely to have gone down particularly well in nato headquarters. it's also unlikely to gone down particularly well in ukraine either because mr. milan of each also went on to say that the 2014 might done revolution in ukraine was a coo. and he said that ukraine had absolutely no business in joining nato. not only will we not send troops, but if there is an escalation, we will withdraw every last croatian soldier. everything is happening on moscow's
5:03 pm
doorstep. so it is necessary for an arrangement to be found that will take into account russia, security interests. i worked in the european council when the democratically elected president unicode, which a scoundrel, sat on 3 chairs, was overthrown in a curb. it was encouraged primarily by the you and the united states not dug again . when you are cut tourist the head, jamante d. s. has been striving to achieve her past when years has not disappeared, then we know that among european nato members there and those who oppose military involvement and potential conflicts in our, even against providing ukraine with lethal weapons. germany is the main one. we can also speak of hungary and some central and southern european countries. it was a lot more diplomatic here in berlin on tuesday evening. emanuel macaroni was welcomed by chancellor oil app sholtes, the french president on the german chancellor, essentially emphasizing the importance of dialogue when it comes to taking the heat out of tensions between russia and nato over ukraine. what we heard from the french
5:04 pm
president was him saying that he would never give up on dialogue when it came to salting out this particular problem. he did say that the costs would be high if there was any aggression blow from the german chancellor. what we heard was him repeat again and again his message that there would be no sending of german weapons into ukraine at all boast. and looking ahead to a big meeting of representatives of the northern d for in paris on wednesday. all so talking about ukraine in europe on tuesday was the british prime minister boris johnson. he address parliament in westminster. he said that he would be speaking further with the russian president vladimir burton, that it was important to continue to seek a diplomatic solution to listen to the concerns of the russian side. he did say, though, that an invasion of ukraine would result, potentially in the worst bloodshed that had been seen in europe since world war 2.
5:05 pm
and could end incredibly badly for the russian side. there is a, a stand point that britain has taken and it won't be shaken from it. there is nothing new about large and powerful nations using the threat of brute force to terrify reasonable people into giving way to otherwise completely unacceptable. demands. are so far this week we have seen a stepping up of nato forces either in europe or prepared, potentially to be sent to europe 8 and a half 1000 us troops placed on high alert that could be sent over here. should the situation get any worse? that's according to the pentagon in washington. we've also are seeing the continuation of giant nate. so navy war games that are going on in the mediterranean, the u. s. s. s. harry truman, the american aircraft carrier at the center of those while the netherlands and denmark in spain, all promised that they would be sending military hardware to the east of nato at
5:06 pm
some time in the future. all of this, according to dmitri best gov, the kremlin spokesperson is being watched very closely by moscow dog ladies. 10 such nato actions and increase nato activity. now, our borders cannot be ignored by a military who are responsible for the security of our country. there is a constant process of drills, maneuvers and military build up, which has never stopped and will continue on the search for a diplomatic solution to what's going on in eastern europe concerning russia, ukraine and nato goes into well moves on to paris and those normandy, 4 talks it's the 1st time the talks in this format will have taken place since 2019 that involves representatives of the russian, ukrainian, german, and french governance. keeping you up to date on those here on our t. of course, a lot of aspects her on this story, some of them ukraine has summoned the creation ambassador and protest at that announcement from president milan. of ich, stating his country would not get involved in any potential nato conflict in the
5:07 pm
region. in addition, the creation president's name has appeared on a notorious ukrainian ultra nationalist website. it lists thousands of people branded enemies of ukraine, including journalists, and in the past, those on the side have been physically attacked. with veteran british m. p, an rti host, george galloway believes there's a deep split between european nero members and how to deal with the ukraine crisis does a splintering all of the european side of the nato alliance. germany has made it plain that it does not support the build off of war materiel in ukraine, and does not want a confrontation with russia to turn into a war. they want a new european security architecture that is not led by the nose a by a senile american president,
5:08 pm
that most people wouldn't send out to the shops for a low for bread, but may well lead his european allies into war with the hypersonic thermonuclear superpower called russia, so it's all beginning to break apart the law of unintended consequence that they don't hate russia. you know, i made this point you before they hit putins, russia, because putin has dragged russia up from the floor where it was lying, having its pockets picked and restored prestige and respect, self respect to russia. that's not the kind of russia they want. and while the world worries about how ukraine is being threatened from the outside, ukrainians themselves have got concerns closer. ah,
5:09 pm
small business owners among others have clashed with police in the center of key as one person was reportedly killed in the violence. protesters attempted to enter the country's parliament, thus the ronda police resorted to tear gas to stop them. a lot of skirmishes as you can see there at the media reports, team m p. 's humping, evacuated from the building. and demonstrators, we believe are demanding tax breaks, and the mandatory cash chills in stores be abolished so that a goods tax doesn't have to be paid. i mean, with the us having sent a 3rd installment of military aid to ukraine, the white house has said that no us troops would be deployed to ukraine itself, but president biden us said he is considering increasing the number of us forces in neighboring eastern european countries. by the way, this is a line just some hours ago. those eastern european countries which are members of
5:10 pm
nato biden also said he is mulling sanctions against vladimir putin directly in the event of an alleged invasion by russia. moving some of those troops in the near term, i feel obliged to beef up our presence nato's presence in an eastern front pool remaining and cetera. would you ever see yourself personally sanctioning him if he did and they do current? yes, he was. i will see that yeah, well let's cross live now. as you can see, the rti us corresponding kill him up and who is listening to that as well, some strong rhetoric, caleb coming from bite and especially given diplomatic talks, they're still in the pipeline. take us through what was said today. sure, well, according to john kirby, the $8500.00 troops that are on high alert,
5:11 pm
they include, they would include an additional brigade, combat teams, logistical personnel, medical support, aviation support, intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance, as well as transportation. and these forces would only be deployed in the inventive in the event of russia invading ukraine. plus, it's important to note that they are also making statements to the effect of the current economic problems. russia is facing being nothing in comparison to what would happen if russia were to dare to invade ukraine. now, there's been some other strange developments at this point. russia is still waiting for word from the united states regarding the recent security issues they've discussed. you know, russia, security guarantees that they have raised. however, ukraine seems to have already been informed about key ideas, etc. now, when biden spoke of a possible russian invasion of the ukraine use some rather dramatic terms. here's
5:12 pm
what he said. for enormous consequences worldwide. this would be the largest if you were to move in to all those forced to be largest of asians as well, where to change the world. now that is just factually in accurate when the united states invaded iraq and the us led coalition invaded iraq in 2003, the invasion involved, 177000 troops being moved into the country. 177000. and 130000 of those were us troops. so this latest statement from biden, about the biggest mobilizations and world war 2 fits in with a string of inaccurate and unproven allegations. we've heard from western leaders over the course of the last several weeks as they continue to play up this idea, but somehow russia is on the brink of invading ukraine. thanks very much for all ortiz. you asked correspondent, caleb martin and staying with things. joe biden hot mike moment has caused
5:13 pm
embarrassment for the american leader to a media conference. the president was asked about the record inflation gripping the u. s. with the journalist who asked the question, receiving this in response. the super peter spoke to this, the president called him, he conveyed to him that it was nothing personal man and also acknowledge that all of you are going to ask him a range of questions. so i think that speaks for itself earlier. my colleagues, neil harvey and mariah garcia, talk through what's spark, such a reaction from the u. s. president. polly was a nasty booster. baby. i'm befitting of the president, but that is imagine he was, he was stressed right he. he, he needed an outlet. but silly moment we will have moments like that,
5:14 pm
but the issue here is the subject. neither not is inflation because there are, there are 2 explanations for what but, and said the 1st is that perhaps he was kidding. you know, he was angry. this is an outlet, again, again for his stress, for his ag and the, the 2nd option which is even scarier is that he actually believes that inflation is a great asset. i'm, you felt abroad. you felt that the inflation that has gripped the world, not, not only of, of the past year, but over the past 2 years of the course of the pandemic. you walk into a shop, you look at the process. this is at the zeppelin fuel, for our cars, clothes, for food, the prices and in supermarkets, i mean cars, computers. everything's gone up into the stratosphere. nobody's gaining from this. people are literally watching that their salaries, their wages, especially people on fixed income, or even worse, poor people, low income people. they are watching their salaries,
5:15 pm
they're purchasing power evaporate. that say, as an example, say you were making $10000.00 just just was of the simplicity said $10000.00 a month. right. given this inflation in the united states and of 7 percent over the past year, your effective sales of so what you can buy is worth $9300.00. this is in the, in the span of a year. so again, if, if someone gives you a raise, if you get a raise, well that's just, you know, getting back lou and back what you've already lost. and so it is incredibly strange reading meeting what some and the media wrote. and i'd like to note that this is, this is left wing media that inflation is somehow a good thing, why inflation can actually be good for every day americans and bad for rich people . why the inflation we're seeing now is a good thing why inflation might actually be good for the economy. the either enter
5:16 pm
that is. so someone telling me why you can afford to put food on your table is a good thing. it's, it doesn't contrast well well it's essentially the same thing and those headlines that some of them have apologize. the authors, they have been ridiculed to such an extent that they had to, they had to go back on what they wrote because there is, there is no justifying this with the reflection we, we are seeing in the united states, right, inflation, that is an absolute record in 40 years and 40 years, i mean the, the numbers are absolutely tremendous how much people are using. now you'll hear some say this is even worse for bill. there, billionaires. they have no problem affording or buying whatever they want. sure, they made me. they might make in a year 5000000000 dollars instead, instead of $6000000000.00. they, they are feeling old, seamless as a catastrophe. that the reason that this is all happening will part of the reason
5:17 pm
because there is the pandemic. but there is also the printing press on which the united states to a, to, to a greater extent than the european central bank to a lesser extent, quintin trillions, trillions. they ran these for, for so long to give our people checks, covered checks, and more people used these covered checks for a is a by basic necessities. they, they went for electronics, they went for from, for luxury things. and what this did is these caused inflation been a supplier supply chains already disrupted. there's less things for more people, which means higher prices and people are people have raised prices of people are willing to pay the my not. now we're, we've said all of this, the only way to combat all of this is to, is for, for the central bank we will heard, you know, central banks, high rates or whatever. and we'll wait for what the hell that mean. what it me is that by way of increasing the interest on all loans,
5:18 pm
central banks cool off in economy by making sure there's less money to go around. the problem here is that the united states is now $29.00 trillion dollars in debt. $29.00 trillion dollars in debt and if they hike rates, they, if they hi, grades long term. so for example, for, for 56 years, the issue will be that they're going to make much more payments, many more payments on the existing debt. so for them it would be like, shooting themselves in the foot. so they're trying to balance the needs of the economy versus the, the outcry from the public them from the people. and try to squeeze by are either pleasing, ultimately, no one in law abiding is crude words after the press conference calls start rage online with people saying the insult was directed at anyone who's concerned about rising inflation levels. joe biden may think it's stupid to care about inflation,
5:19 pm
but a whole lot of americans disagree and they are going to vote this november working families are being crushed by this white house and their solution is to curse out anyone who questions them totally out of control biden's message to americans concerned about inflation. very stupid son of a think he's left himself open to more criticism about being a hypocrite about, you know, how we talked for, you know, during the, during the campaign and over the last year about how he was going to be more respectful with reporters. and then he acts this way, i think, frankly, what we saw was frustration, frustration over the fact that his policies have helped lead to this inflation that we're seeing this record inflation frustration over his rhetoric about shutting down the virus meeting up with the reality of the fact that the virus isn't getting shut down frustration over the fact that now he seems to be flirting with a direct conflict with russia. now he's acting rattled, he's cherry picking data and trying to whitewash what's happening. americans are
5:20 pm
hurting. and i think an underrated element to all of this is the fact that his energy policy is also contributing to the rising prices of consumer good. you know, at his 1st day in office, you know, he went ahead and revoke the license for the keystone pipeline that drove up and then american energy costs the cost of energy for transportation for creating goods for running factories for everything. i mean, that has a direct correlation to deal with the price of that americans pay in terms of at the retail level. so you combine that with the inflation from all the printing of the money and all the paying them expanding. and we wind up in a very tough situation. ok, want to bring you back to britain. our u. k. police have launched a formal probe into parties held that the prime minister's residence in a parent violation of cobit locked on restrictions parallel to advance the results of an internal government inquiry are expected to be released this week. piling
5:21 pm
further, pressure bar is johnson r t. shantia edwards justy has been following developments. well, what to say in westminster? it's been an old kicked off earlier today when the metropolitan police chief was asked whether or not the police are covering up for those in power. and she had back announcing officially the launch of the investigation into the downing street party allegations. as a result, firstly of the information provided by the cabinet of his inquiry team. and secondly, my officers own assessment. i can confirm that the mat is now investigating a number of events that took place at downing street and whitehall in the last 2 years. in relation to potential breaches of covet 19 regulations, this is a really big move for the metropolitan police. as we've always had that they don't normally investigate retrospectively. but many people say this really goes to show
5:22 pm
just how much evidence there must be in at least an element of criminality. but barnes johnson, the prime minister. he's actually welcomed this investigation and says it will help a drawer, a line under all of these issues. and finally, the government can move on. but that's pretty bold words from a man, a prime minister, who many people, including politicians think as time is up per much more or less embarrassing, such as his colleagues, a move of mind from office government, a success, the prime minister or 40 is in tatters. really, he advised his boss to do the right thing in the national interest and resign the prime minister. not simply compounding his previous terrible mistakes by continuing to deny culpability leading to on necessary and expensive police inquiry when he could do a decent thing and resign. well, this week, of course,
5:23 pm
we were expecting the investigation led by stu, gray, and have findings to be published. but in light of all of this news today, many people thought it be kicked into the long grass. however, the metropolitan police had said it looks forward to the whole thing being published. so now it really feels like it's just a matter of time. but for boys johnson, it's a very, very sketchy time. indeed, because downing street, they've said the prime minister did not believe he had ever broken the law. and of course, last week we had from bars johnson himself say that he actually thought of party was indeed a work event. and in regards to the latest birthday party allegations, many people are simply playing that down saying it was just a bit of cake during the working day. although at the time the rules were that you could only have 2 people mingling in duels together. where is this part? at least the allegations suggest around 30 people were mixing in doors together. so
5:24 pm
all eyes now are really on to gray and have report we could expect that investigations findings to come out even as early as tomorrow. it could be any minute. now, but as one tori and p allegedly had said today in response to one of this news, it feels like it's another nail in the coffin, which boris johnson is lying in. already. the we heard from limbered pick broadcast her former british empty. he thinks even of boris johnson does mallet to avoid formal charges. his days of prime minister of the united kingdom are numbered. i think it's inevitable, but he'll be strapped aside by this for a few weeks. i've been up to view that his position is simply untenable. there are 2 reasons trustable. it's quite obvious. he's broken the regulations as far as the public's concerned, the cold of public opinion he's already being found guilty. secondly, this police investigation stalls the outcome of the investigation by su
5:25 pm
gray, but it's, it's legal investigation. the prime minister is being investigated for breaking the law. that's not a good look. i think it's $5050.00 whether there will be charges, if it, in some way charged. a lot of people are going to insist that own lines that they pay for breaking these should be returned to the line later respect when it comes to the masses of lighting back across the country. and the looks like i have and in the united kingdom, when you cross a line, there's no way buying and i think he's got the us food and drug administration will soon have to hand over documents it had wanted to sit on for 75 years. they relate to its authorization of the pfizer vaccine, which critics was carried out too hastily. the info will now be released thanks to a group of scientists taking the matter to court. we spoke to their lawyer and say,
5:26 pm
transparency is you know, our representative individuals in your, by that we've been representing them for years. we do that for all the other vaccine. we don't do that for the pfizer, that scene with me during our j. j for kobe. because you can't see them in any manner. we've got waning immunity. there instead of eating unity, you've got the cdc saying that the vaccine doesn't prevent transmission. and there are obviously some harm to that scene causes that you in public health officials don't deny. there are fairly issues with the vaccine and we need every independent scientist on board and looking at the data looking information, helping address those issues with a real problem here in my view and view, i think of many is that the very same house authority that are telling you this is stated are the same federal health authorities that gave pfizer mcdonough and jane j complete immunity from any liability for injury cause others products. and they gave them that immunity before the products were even authorized before they were
5:27 pm
even made in life since then, and put on the market. that creates a moral hazard by decoupling the company profit motive from its interest and safety . and i think that does concern a lot of people and it shows the development comes as the world health organization recommend to giving a reduced dosage of the fire or vaccine to children, age 5 to 11. the drug has already been approved for that age group in the u. s. canada on the you. however, there are a number of died. so, but a fast track approval of the shot, the judge, you order the f d a to release the relevant info sees it's very much in the public. and john f. kennedy likewise recognized the nation that is afraid to lead its people judge the truth and falsehood in an open markets is a nation that is afraid of its people. there may not be a more important issue with the food and drug administration than the pandemic. the
5:28 pm
phase of ac, seen getting every american vac. it is and making sure that the american public is assured that this was not rushed on behalf of the united states. even if it wasn't russ, there's no reason not to have transparency, but certainly in a situation where was rush. transparency is certainly important. it does beg the question, why does the f b a one way alley, initially? why did you want to wait? as long as it did, it claim doesn't have enough resources, but it has over 18000 employees. busy a budget over $6500000000.00 reviewing a few $100000.00 pages for what a claim is, the most important product it's ever reviewed and put out there presumably. and so we did couple the public health authorities own reputation from the products, right. such that they're just viewed as any other products. and then we can actually address individuals who are injured by these products and get them the
5:29 pm
treatment that they need. okay, we are back with max and stacy again in moments for the latest slice of kaiser report auction. stay tuned for that. then we'll have more up the top with peter scott by scott. mm bring you the very latest every out the day. this is all he now snow from everyone had with there may or may, we should all be may or may, we should all be angry because
5:30 pm
a was more all right. can't understand united states history and the role that slavery play. it's already a very formal institution. by the time united states became a nation, it actually define the nation. the rise of capitalism is clearly on the backs of plate, and it's laid down. if you had investigated lynchings, any great extent, you can't believe in the country. and the country still stands in brick. i'm from the south. everybody know, know what they're saying. to some extent, i would argue that we're still fighting the civil war. in the south is winning it's an open secret that private military companies have been playing a role in om complex world wide. u. s. government doesn't track the number of contractors and uses in places iraq or afghanistan united state.
