ah ah, in the stories that shaped a week, the new crane dominated both the headlines and the mines of nato states, with lethal arms, ammunition, and military equipment handed over to clear. while the u. s. and u. k. prepared to send troops soon to eastern europe. but not all nato members agree to weaponized craig. germany was slammed by allies for going against the blocks line while some spanish opposition party say it's not bad countries. war to wage. spain has no police in this conflict. we are not interested in any worse. all this is a pro cation of the united states and nato in an attempt to reshape the world order in which they are lose an influence. elsewhere this weekend candidates prime minister reportedly rushed now to a safe evacuation site as more than 10000 truckers and they supported flood

parliament telling opposition to vaccine mandates with russia. the usual suspects on the mass movement coast and a commercialization to pursue. joe biden was called on my consulting a fox news journalist. i was just trying to get answers about record inflation plaguing the u. s. we went shopping in new york city to see just how price is there, have been affected and asked low cost, how much is hit them in their pocket? you have to, you have to make concession. so you to fit your budget to buy the essential things to our families. got 3 kids in the cost, the food is going up. i drive the car almost every day, the cost the gas going up, or is there anything? hello there. welcome to the weekly round of the big stories who brought you here or

not international over the last 7 days. my name's kevin hm. so 1st week, so night. so countries pouring weapons and military equipment in to you. britton's announced what is called his biggest possible offer to night, so may be a major military deployment to eastern europe to be announced later today. the u. k . following a similar line to washington, that with president biden pledging to send more american troops to the region in the near future, the pentagon has already put 8500 soldiers on standby for possible deployment or that to deter russia. but now, even kiev is urging come ahead of panic, claiming it won't be attacked despite repeated warnings to the country. from the us . we're moving us to europe, the nato countries, in the year term. these would be additional brigade, combat teams, logistics personnel, medical support, a variation support intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance, as well as transportation, and maybe even some additional capabilities after that. those are behalf that lots

of such power, militarism appears in the media. and i asked to reduce the intensity that exist today, let the situation is quite clear to us. there is no reason for us to panic, no grounds for certain kinds of dreams. our country, it is even physically impossible to achieve or not. so comes of them, but not all nato members united a weaponized crime. in a week. germany refused to send arms and also rules that evacuating its embassy. the saying the move would only add to tensions, but also doesn't believe there's any immediate sign of ukraine joining the nato lights. every one knows that this is not in the agenda at the moment, including russia, the people of ukraine, one to live in peace and security. many have been separated from their families for years due to the conflicts in the dumbass. that's what the matter is about. not an imminent entry into nato was laughing mitten in ohio. that war is looming right now in the middle of europe without doing everything. we can to prevent a military escalation of the situation. of course, we do not deliver weapons to ukraine, is about keeping the peace, lasting peace order in europe would not work with our russia,

but only with russia in over cracks have also merged inside another ne, to member to that so ready seen to a navy vessels to the black sea, spain then has pledged its full support to the block, but some of the opposition there are not in favor of move. no. so local more we is one of the signatories of this manifest. so and the bulk of those who made the formation of the current government possible, believe that firstly, spain has no place in this conflict. we are not interested in any worse. all this is a pro cation of the united states and nato, in an attempt to reshape the world order in which they are losing influence. the us openly admits this is very important for its national security. so the u. s. and they to are escalating tensions. the united states and nato want on the one hand to control europe and on the other latin american literally crush and everyone who questioned the hegemony of the united states and the united states. and they to

want to direct the resources of control europe and latin america to attack those whom they consider their main threat in this whole story. neither spain or the e. u has any row our troops should not become cannon fodder for this most enormous machine of genocide in history for nato vienna. on friday, russia top diplomat, spelled out clearly that the country does not want war, but a candle swill i was interested, be ignored. for a minister, sokolov rav shed his thoughts cheering a 90 minute interview to russian media. yes, we have to say if it's up to russia, there will be no war. we don't want any wars, but ignoring our interest is not something we can allow either. americans are trying to create a hysteria of the escalation around ukraine, burrell and blink, and repeating it to some kind of a mantra. they say we hope that raja is going to choose the path of diplomacy. and i can tell you that is something we've always stuck to since soviet times. and the

outcomes of this diplomacy include the eastern bull and astronaut declarations, stipulating that no one is going to strengthen their security at the expense of others. this is the embodiment of diplomacy. i, ne, mobile, our proposal to nato might seem exceptional only if the experts who assist these proposals assume that the americans have already taken everything around. so why bother put up with that? confine yourself to the bare minimum. but we want them to work with us with honesty, the day before yesterday we received their response and obfuscate things as the west is prone to do. but still there are some responses to our basic questions. in particular, with regards to intermediate and short range missiles. we also offered to withdraw military exercises further from the border on both sides. there were other measures on de escalation that were ignored for several years. but now nater seems to be willing to talk about that. it's a lease something present that was the president has already

given an answer to that. if our attempts to agree on mutually acceptable principles of insuring euro atlantic security fail, we're going to take measures in response with regard to what kind of measures he said that they can be different and will be based on the information provided by our military. if they insist that they would not change their position, we will not do it either because their position is based on distortion of facts. and our position is based on what everyone's put their signature on. i don't see the grounds for reaching the compromise here because they are distorting the previous decisions that were commonly adopted. virginia, so as for the sanctions, when our president spoke, in particular, we told the americans that the package of sanctions, including russia's disconnection from the financial systems, controlled by the west, would be equivalent to the severance of diplomatic ties. we gave a clear message and i think they understand it. i don't think it serves anybody's interests than the ones watertight relationship between the u. s. the mainstream

media and k of came into question in the wake of to said had deleted but then reinstated an article alleging that the ukranian president told joe biden that america was over playing the eminent russian invasion card. saskia taylor covered that story on thursday to us on ukrainian president had a phone conversation and the media reported the biden was warning the when the brink of wild will 3 newton's waiting for the ground to freeze over in february. and then he'll give the signal for an invasion, zaleski, for his part, was trying to part you to calm his u. s. counterpart down by stating that it's all still ambiguous. it seemed and that the 2 leaders would very much at all a call between us president joe biden and ukrainian president vollmer zalinski on thursday, did not go well. the senior ukrainian official told cnn amid disagreements over the risk levels of a russian attack. zelinski urge is american counterpart to calm down the messaging, boarding of economic impact of panic,

according to the official. he also said ukrainian intelligence sees the threat differently. so quickly thought later that on top of all the other disagreements within the you and nato. now even washington and kia, who off, quite literally rob is in arms on to, on the same page. but then something but curious, happened less than an hour and a half off to the see in an article broke, it just disappeared. there was no trace any more bite and whipping up hysteria about imminent wool and zalinski, telling him to calm down on its pace. what a pit? well, a few of tweets from cnn people on thought her field about how the white house disputes, how the coal wasn't a success. in fact, it was all just one big light white house on biden zalinski call. anonymous sources are leaking falsehoods. president biden said that there is a distinct possibility that the russians could invade ukraine in february, reports of anything more different than that, are completely false on hot on these heels. he also came out claiming that the

original article was riddled with mistakes. dear colleagues, some reports regarding the content of the talks between presidents villa, dimmer zalinski and joe biden have appeared on social media. citing the alleged senior ukrainian official. these messages are completely false. so to put it simply, we had an article, citing a senior ukrainian official. now the articles disappeared in a whole army, both in the ukraine and state side, or out, doing damage control. what happened behind the scenes? it's still a mystery font, understandably, there are lots of questions and what suspicions? why such a shot? 180 who gave the order for the story to be taken down. and so probably not a surprise. biden's critics are calling the transparency. what they want is a transcript of the phone call. will someone ask press secretary if the white house will release the transcript? when will you release the transcript? what exactly was said in the hour and 20 minute chat between bites,

ansolaski is still unclear. what did dynamic between them to lead to says it's still unclear. is it indeed true, that is, lensky was the one telling bye to tone down the hysteria. there are a lot of questions. there also seems to be the sense that at best this was poor and verify john anderson. and it was, if we're being really cynical, that was something in that article that someone really didn't want to come out. and in other developments, louis just got on the curb simmering tensions rusher agreed to move planned naval drills further from the coast of ireland out there is government. official communities expressed concern about potential damage that the exercises could cause the area in response to the request and minister of defense of the russian federation sake. a chicago has made a decision as a gesture of good will to relocate the exercises, but the russian navy plan for february said to february 8th, outside the irish exclusive economic zone with the aim not to hinder fishing

activities by irish vessels in the traditional fishing areas moscow just announced that it will move its naval drills scheduled for next week, which were originally set to take place in international waters, just about 150 miles off the coast of ireland. now that's after the irish fishing authorities said that moscow was well within its rights to carry out these plans, but it would disrupt fishing activities in the area. so they asked if they could be relocated. we also heard from the irish foreign minister who pointed to the recent tensions around the conflict in ukraine. russia and the international law of the sea can of course, undertake military exercises in international waters. this isn't the time to increase military activity, intention in the context of what's happening with ukraine at the moment. now, as the iris foreign minister pointed outright there, there's nothing illegal about russia carrying out military drills in international waters. something that's been in the works for quite a while now, but moscow sees the decision as a gesture of good will,

considering the fact that the western media has been hyping up, claims accusing russia of planning to invade ukraine for months now. and that diplomacy has been facing, set back after set back concerning this issue. so while tensions do remain high, at least ireland and russia can see i hear good to hear. now developing story this weekend, canadian prime minister, just in true, those reportedly been rushed to a secret secure evacuation location, full protection as more than 10000 truckers of their freedom convoy support has to send on parliament hill in the capitol over the national food supply crisis. of to dr. is a told no job, no job. these drone patients give you the idea of the scale of this is mass crowds and vehicles block key roads around the palm of building and protest, brave extreme cold warnings to vent that passionate opposition to vaccine mandates and other pandemic restrictions. theory of dana, our moment is our time to take our country back. the researches i've been going on for way too long reba needed to do their own thing and have

a great day for you. there's a lot, you know, just one problem is the whole thing in general. society itself has been overtaken by fear. this convoy is, although freed up, it's not only with the truck drivers, it's actually for every single person you, me, buddy, down the road. it doesn't matter, it's all about your free choice. that's what it should be. like i said, if you're vaccinated, cool, you did it. most people did it because of work, but you know, you should do it off a free will off of your own choice. meantime, the countries talk more my control to demonize those rallies with trudeau himself, running about acceptable along with the public safety chief dubbing, demonstrate his extremist and in a repeat to practically every big north american political story. in recent years with 0 evidence. now canada's top state broadcast to claim the russians fuel and even started the entire mass,

public movement concerns that russian actors could be continuing to fuel things as this as this protest grows. but perhaps even instigating it from from the outset. i wanted to find out more folks economists, north jeffrey tuck had just lost. i think canadians frustration of the government's mandates a completely justifiable. so the pharmacy, you've got a fringe minority out there, imposing these restrictions against vast majority of canadians in the fed. up every time somebody complains about having to put on a mask or get a forced jab or having a business shot or having the travel restrict or something like that, they're called an extreme as to road. now, if you're a tool of russia, you know, it's just too much and, and the propaganda is completely out of control. i don't see how this ends without just tremendous resignations on the part of the elected politicians in the administrative state. i think we're about to discover what this looks like. what happens when the vast majority rise up against the tiny fringe minority that have

been ruined over it's come at 16 pass the hour. hi there you without international a weekly round of stories. he brought you over the last 7 day, so when we got it after the break that another twist in the seemingly never ending saga, going on for a decade. this says the whistle blow a julian assange big news a, getting the weak, winning the right to get his extradition ruling reviewed by the u. k. supreme court . i'm kevin o', and i'll take you through that a much more very soon. oh driven by dream shaped bankers and those with

dares sinks we dare to ask for what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy confrontation, let it be an arms race is on offensive. very dramatic development. only personally and getting to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very critical time time to sit down and talk with i get this out,

his national live and on these review the week. so this was at what he was a hot mike moment causing big embarrassment for joe biden. in the week, at a news conference, the president was asked about the record inflation currently blighting the us with one jill is getting by rather more than expected as a response. oh as well. it was a nasty boost baby and befitting 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. 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 2nd option, which is even scarier is that he actually believes that inflation is

a great asset. i'm you fault, right? 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 that this is evelyn 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 have a fixed income, or even worse for people, low income people. they are watching their salaries, they're purchasing power evaporate. so it is incredibly strange reading, reading 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 in bad for rich people. why the inflation we're seeing now is

a good thing why inflation might actually be good for the economy. those headlines that some of them have apologized the authors. they have been ridiculed to such an extent that they had to, they had to go back on, on what they wrote because there is, there is no justified in the pseudo that says 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, the numbers are absolutely tremendous how much people are using career, isn't that this is all happening will part of the reason, because there is the pandemic. but there is also the printing press on which the united states toward to, to a greater extent than the european central bank to a less extent, quintin trillions, trillions. they ran these for, for so long. they give our people checks, covered checks, and more people used these co rejects for a is a by basic necessities they,

they went for electronics, they went from for luxury things. and what this did is these caused inflation, supplier supply chains already disrupted theory with a combat. all of this is to it for, for central banks we, we've all heard, you know, central banks, high rates or whatever. and we'll wait for what the hell that mean. what it means that by way of increasing the interest on all loans, central banks cool off an 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 a 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 and from the people. and try to squeeze by are either pleasing, ultimately, no one says clear. sorry, joe been feeling the pressure from the economy. small businesses in household across the u. s. a being crushed under the weight of the spiraling inflation. can i'm open next and checked her. what is done to store prices in new york city? as the saying goes, a dollar ain't a dollar anymore, an american families are being squeezed by inflation. there has been a 7 percent increase and consumer prices over the past year. that's the fastest increase that we've seen since 982 joe biden has promised that he is going to fight these increasing costs of pretty much everything. and he has already found someone to blame for the crisis. it's a bottom line. this isn't just about quick winds, it's about reversing decades of concentration of hurt workers, consumers and small businesses. it didn't happen any one time. it's been over

a period of time now a long time. now the average cost of the local bread and new york state in 2021 was $0.88 here at a popular supermarket in manhattan. there's bread for sale for roughly $3.48 or $4.27. now, prices in manhattan are loc, steeper, even in good time. so that's a pretty significant increase in cost for the consumer. i food thickly thumb is really going up really quickly, really high and the flu sec. we got a phone going up with the lawn, just a regular trip to the supermarket, as it is becoming, becoming more difficult. you have to, you have to make concessions to, to fit your budget, to, to buy the essential things to a feeder. families got 3 kids and the cost the food is going up. i drive the car almost every day, the cost, the gas is going up. i don't, is there anything? last january, the price of gasoline and manhattan was roughly $2.37. but now here it be

p in midtown manhattan. they won $4.79 per gallon to fill up your tank. if i could get this under control, a lot of people would breathe a huge sigh of relief. new survey shows that 76 percent of small firms in the united states have felt the negative impact of inflation over the past 6 months. there's nothing natural about it is the result of political decisions. and the result has been vast borrowing of money to speculate in the stock market. and some of that money has now fallen over into the rest of the economy. and so we have an inflation mostly because businesses have wanted to offset profits last in 2012. and the 1st half of 2021 by raising their prices. now it is a profit driven decision. this is big news. jerry sounds found the jury assigns than

what we can find. a rather julius sounds, winning a bit to us the u. k. supreme court. now, to review a previous high court decision to expedite to the united states he's wanted by washington still on those charges of espionage is going on for a decade. the later court decision will hold to sanchez extradition from the u. k for the moment, and is the latest that is a long running battle as a say to avoid trial. after wiki leagues published us classified documents more than a decade ago. but those close to the whistle blow all that said sites a long way from the result they were actually looking for what happened in court today is precisely what we want it to happen. but we are far from achieving justice in this case because julian has been incarcerated for so long, and he should not have spent a single day in prison. as long as this case isn't dropped. as long as julian isn't freed, join continues to suffer. what we need for this case to be dropped entirely. that is that is that, is that the only real victory for or for journalism?

for julian, this is of course of the pro longed incarceration is already been for more than a 1000 days in belmont prison. we've always been protesting, vigorous to the fact that after the united states lost in the lower court, they were allowed to submit the so called up. so sort of assurances take contributor richard matters has been closely following the hearings along the way till to see things june his sons. now he's got a strong case of the supreme court. we have to be clear. it's not guaranteed that they'll take the case. i personally think that they will because this is a very important point. the wall is basically, is the united states, the requesting state, allowed to provide assurance as after its last the case, you know, there being a sore loser, effectively because julian is on one is extradition battle in january 2021 fair and square. and then the united states provided assurances afterwards, they spend weeks arguing that, you know, special administrative measures and the terrific conditions that they're going to

put them in are fine. you know, they, they weren't convinced that this is the right way it's thing to do. and then once they lost the case there, they started providing these assurances. and this is what needs to be determined by the supreme court is can a requesting state in an extradition give assurances to an appellate court to us to an appeals court that were not given that were not provided in a magistrates court. so this isn't just important to julian assange, it's important for all extradition. and it is 100 percent relevant to british common law and to the public and the west to keep in mind that even if julian does end up free, he's not safe and other jurisdictions. if he steps foot in france or germany or anywhere else where the u. s. as an extradition treaty, it again start a new thing. i certainly hope that the supreme court will do the right thing. he'll newsweek never was going to come up. that's just a snapshot of some of the big headlines that we brought over the last 7 days here in moscow. tonight's coming up to half past midnight. moscow times. kevin, over the big thanks for watching the weekly from out into national weekends gone.

good news. there is a chance all down through here all this little area over here. so you're camps are always a little nicer than this is evidence of absolute poverty, despair. people in our city. other cities, all across america are living like this. where at the original eat and village that opened up in 2018 right now. there's 31 homes on the property. it's a little over 4 acres with 31 homes and a community center. unfortunately, a lot of people don't make it out of edition more homelessness and i'm just really happy with it. and dad, you with me and

oh, i joined me every thursday on the alex salmon. sure. i'll be speaking together in the world of politics, sport, business. i'm show business, i'll see you then. ah, the whole earth catalogue was part of the movement. this publication was created by steward brand, a former biology student, and jack of all trades. he wanted to help you middle is find everything they needed to fend for themselves by showing them where to buy all the necessary tools so weird because right, so these people are going to build farms. but what kind of tools are they take?

will they take books? and that's because what people wanted in the communes was not just farm equipment, but consciousness, equipment. they wanted to change their minds catalog is absolutely central to the counterculture and to the, to the the commune movement of the late 19 sixty's. but it's also central to silicon valley. they found this world and they began to reimagined computers as the kinds of tools that the whole of catalog had promised. when i was young, there was an amazing publication called the whole earth catalogue, which was one of the bible's of my generation. it was idealistic, overflowing with neat tools and great notions on the back cover of their final issue, where the words stay hungry, stay foolish. it was their farewell message as they signed off stay.
