3:14 pm
bear the totality of its power. that this is a very measured campaign by the russian. ready cherry, to carry out a limited set of objectives. ukraine, on the other hand, appears to be engaged in total war against russia. and i think they have been lulled into a false, it's of complacency because they have interpreted russia's special military operation as a total war against themselves. i think russia may have to educate ukraine as to what more can be done against it to help deter of ukraine carrying out attacks on russian soil. there is, there are consequences for your actions. and if you train wants to expand the war, i think they shouldn't be surprised when russia escalates it's response. ah ok, another story to bring you to day tens of thousands of people continue to protest

the park is on establishment must for the a minus when policy were the, do not want to see him, ron con, as a prime minister, arkansas. why? because iraq on hm, you know, i will go about the independent foreign policy and it all started according to me in september of 2021. when statesman and the director or ca, mister burns, came in. islam beat a secret. was it not only in august on, but also in india, non con starts to words, you know, providing not any military base to united states was not welcome by the state department and even the pentagon. and he basically publicly said a statement where he said that things will get tougher pockets on being true because he knew what was coming. northern european, the stability would be jeopardized if finland and sweden joining nato now to the
3:19 pm
warning from the russian foreign ministry. after both knew where the country said they are mulling joining the alliance. it's no secret that the territories of these states have long been claimed by nato with large scale military exercises being held, that the motives of the alliance are clear. but it's unclear while baltic region neighbors, finland, and sweden want to turn into a new frontier of confrontation between the nato block and russia. the negative consequences for peace and stability in northern europe are obvious. earlier. moscow also stated, if a session by sweden and finland happens, russia will have to reinforce the baltic sea region by deploying nuclear weapons and it's european, next slave of leningrad in order to quote, restore the balance rushes repeatedly argued. nature expansion goes against the security concerns. something highlighted during talks before the conflict and ukraine had begun, but was ignored or dismissed by western powers. during
3:20 pm
the cold war, sweden and finland along with austria, ireland and switzerland decided not shown any political, military alliances. however, in the 1990s, those neutral states became a part of nato still in partnership for peace program, which allowed them to cooperate militarily with the block. without taking off at full membership, the governments of sweden austrian came things of change due to events in ukraine and our reconsidering their position. here's what the finland leader as well, had to see recently. but european security architecture have changed fundamentally, after russians invasion of ukraine. we have deepened our native partnership until now hand in hand with sweden. ever since russia is legally an exit crimea, there is no other way to have security guarantees done under nato's deterrence and common defense as guaranteed by date of article 5. meanwhile, in sweden,
3:21 pm
riots erupted in the city of already bruise on friday as far left culture pro tester slash with police head of a plant extremist right wing demonstration. the protest turned on objects thrown and a police vehicle torched the cutter demo up and in response to a far right rally where it was. plan of the muslim holy book, the koran would be burned. the event featuring until the muslim danish politician rasmus pollutant and his party hard line had been bound from me. well to discuss all about, let's speak to economist and publisher of the vert shelf the actual business newsletter doctor. i came to see you today on that. the 1st point clashes and violence in sweden, i could clearly
3:22 pm
a lot of the vision on the streets between communities, between ideologies. why is that happening? i think it's because the people don't want to be put on one side. it is pretty dangerous. if you're neutral, you are always, you're always the benefit of the doubt that you can withdraw. but if you are now going to one site, especially a site that is pretty fast moving forward towards the russian board, us and who is very supportive in the ukranian mass. very dangerous for the people. and of course they don't want to be frightened. we had ages and ages of peace and we had ages of good feeling next to russia or next to to you euro and people don't want to lose it. and now, while going into the nato, or thinking of going into the nato,
3:23 pm
everything changes the threat will be, will increase. and of course, the pressure from the ne, to, to push the country against their neighbor, russia will increase to that's what we see everywhere. and of course, people don't want this yet, considering russia in part, undertook a military operation over at ukraine's post to join. neither are you surprised both sweden and finland are now considering joining up finland, of course. sure is a huge border with russia as well. i think that the personal corruption of the politicians, politicians go further than the interests of the countries. i think they are so well about going into these international networks, politicians that they don't, they're not following what their networks. so one of them,
3:24 pm
i think this is the main issue of this thing and that's what we see in many, many of our countries too in some country at. busy really change like in pakistan and other countries, it goes smoothly like in they all strands on where people are much more opening to these networks. russia said it'll need to rebalance security, see if the countries join nato. what do you think that would mean in practice? are we looking at a potential nuclear standoff here? how serious could this potentially get? yes, we, we are facing to a new cold war and there are many forces within the nature who desired this cold war for ages already. donald trump wanted to eliminate the need to because of this because he didn't want to have the cold war situation against the functionaries and bear across in the ne, do they love the cold war situation because it gives them exceptional power within
3:25 pm
the nato countries. so it is not only against russia, it is very much against the own population within the nato countries too. and don't forget that the us and the nature empire as color see, and they need to increase the power again the people while the system is come up thing. so that's why we're not in finland. are thinking of dining this need to because they all face the same on the problems and it has nothing against the own people. it's are mainly against the own people and not against the others outside. and that's what we see everywhere, especially germany, just to touch on a final aspect of this on named american officials, say that the countries will be able to join nato this summer. do you think that feasible with the yes one so that they can join because the us is basically determining whatever happens of the nature they have not only the veto, they just,
3:26 pm
they just call what's, what's off there. and of course, they could join immediately if the americans want them at the minute they need to every, every more partner the americans can get to, to defend dollars system is very welcome and every new member in the nature who is willing to pay 2 percent of g d p for this bureaucrats as is very welcome for this organization of course. so for the organization and the americans, i think they, they want them in as quick as possible. and maybe they, they got the functionaries in finland and sweden so far that they are now willing to, to join. and they just needed an excuse for their own population due to force their population number, major control, the ukrainian masses. the reason for it is excuse for it,
3:27 pm
but i think this has been planned for, for ages. now. it was just during the trump era who didn't want to, to escalate the tensions he wanted to de escalate all the tensions. and we were set that with the biting regime. it is a huge shift in international politics. but of course, you're right. it's a new cold war era. then the thoughts of economists, unpublished dr. i k. homer, thank the head of the european commissioner, said the e u is considering a 6th round of russian sanctions, which will potentially target the energy sector, including the oil industry. that is after vladimir putin earlier slump, some nations for delaying their payments for russian energy. they had received this is with a flood, you're a failure in the payment of export supplies of russian energy resources, banks from unfriendly countries delay the transfer payments. i remind you the task
3:28 pm
is already been set to transfer payments for energy resources to the national currency. gradually moving away from the dollar and the euro. in general, we intend to radically increase the share of payments in the national currency in the foreign trade system in the liquid. yeah, just some background and not a run. a month ago, the russian president ordered the states companies to switch to payments in rubles for russian energy was versus the decision was met with a huge bipolar and on the west, which accused mosque of breaking contracts and circumventing sanctions up to now there's been no agreements among member states on bombing, russian, oil and gas, latimer put north. so stress that on embargo on russian energy resources well, primarily heads, european citizens. but get zeppelin attempts by western countries to replace our energy resources with alternative supplies will inevitably affect the entire global economy. supplies from other countries, primarily from the united states will cost consume as many times more would affect
3:29 pm
the standard of living of people and the competitiveness of the european economy. despite these obvious things for every one, you're paying countries it constantly talking about refusing russian supplies, which further destabilizes the market and inflates. prices themselves, primarily for their citizens. and the austrian chancellor has said his country will only be able to abandon russian gas in a few years from now that size earlier the head of germany's federal at neck work agency that said the agency which overseas, the country's energy needs at claimed that if russian gas applies are cut by berlin . germany's reserves will only last until the autumn, former austrian foreign minister current can i so told r t. it would be hard for germany to deal with the consequences of cutting energy imports from russia. the impact will be much larger than just the old metaphor that people might freeze or not freeze. bear in mind that it's also all
3:30 pm
about the commodity, natural gas for electricity generation. german government is taking all sorts of administrative legal steps in preparing a gas supply. emergency situation is even talk about nationalized ation, conference cation or russian property. we can't imagine, i would say the ultimate outcome. you can see how pressure is filled up against germany within the european union. it's not only from us from your brain or by the public opinion. it's really from within the european union really is right now is how will it be accomplished that germany resigns to the fact that it has to agree on self imposed oil and gas embargo by the european union. it's not about with in the very long.
