ah ah gary in business men, paid for talks with russia gas from 2 days off to moscow, stop supplying gas to bulgaria in the countries refusal to pay in roubles where for locals to a bearing the brunt of the bath fly expected to have a catastrophic effect prices will grow up more. that's the way it will be. i think it will be extremely bad for us. what i'm waiting for is the government to resign because we cannot expect anything good from the current one. us plans for thieves, russian assets to funky of war effort, but maintains a free zone afghan money to sponsor un warning. the millions in the country space salvation over to the gun on which day is horrible. you have read one day and the other day, you don't. this is all because of the americans were wandering around,

were broken up. what do you guys have witnessed all these recent events? how the americans made our lives miserable in today? we are paying the price of their bad policies and plans on the new video of to 911 hijackers party with a founding national with alleged ties to re add intelligence is released by u. s. media relations between the countries reach, breaking point with a very well malcolm based on the international with the latest news update, it's good to have you with us with the am talks that where the gas problem nasa message from the bulgarian deputy prime minister after our meeting with top business men and sophia, the play for talks with the russian gas company comes off the bow, gary, a stop to russian energy imports. 2 days ago, what we discussed and what we suggest according to my employees,

is that the government do everything possible to restore talks with guess from and deliver the contract. well, just to give you a sense, there is no emergency when it comes to immediate gas supplies in bulgaria, despite the fact that russia has stopped those supplies. but to give you a sense of how problematic it could be in 2020 ohms, 3 quarters of all of the gas that the country import it came from russia. so this is a big deal, at least in the long term. now there is that pressure, mounting politically for the government to try and reverse this decision to acquiesce to that demand from russia to pay for the gas in rubles, rather than in euro's or dollars as it was paid for previously in the long term bulgaria. kind of course, a look to get deals elsewhere, but right now, immediately it has to work out what's going to happen or it could see severe economic blues to the country. poland has now also seen its gas supplies directly from russia being halted because it too,

is refusing to pay for that gas in rubles. and that is something that is consuming, not just the politicians, but people on the streets. no, i think it will be extremely bad for us, but what i'm waiting for is the government to resign. i expect new elections and a new normal government because we cannot expect anything good from the current one . i expect it to have a catastrophic effect. prices will grow up more. that's the way it will be. i think this is the government's job to consider and resolve the problem. that's what they are going to do. in fact, they will resolve it is that is, it has become clear that we can get gas from europe, but at a higher price would have been a. so i do not believe it's an appropriate solution if gas is halted from russia. let's not forget that many new countries will pay in roubles to get gas from russia despite the imposed sanctions. as i understand it, we will not do so. lucille, it is difficult for me to imagine how we will continue to live with such increases

. i think that this will lead to an increase in poverty or the impoverishment of society. and general poetry people, it will be, it's a harder no cursor, prices will do, will increase. yes. so i think that the rising price is a worrying a soul, but we believe that we will deal with it and that these increases will be quite bearable for us. now we've heard for a while in countries calling for an end on dependency on russian energy. and in the last 2 months or so, since this don't about more ukraine that those voices have been getting louder and louder, demanding an immediate hold to buying any fossil fuels. whether that's coal, oil, all natural gas, from the russian federation, or even the hearing voices who was saying exactly the same thing, such as top politicians, ursula on the land, and use it for our all suggesting that russia is ready to use gas as a form of blackmail,

interruption of gus applies to poland and bulgaria is raising tensions a little more. that is why we must avoid dependencies that make us vulnerable that we have to get rid of the dependency of russian fossil fuels. and for that we need maximize massive investment in renewables. so poland is one of the countries that's really being particularly vocal about this ban on all imports of russian energy. in fact, the country has gone out of its way to criticize, although you countries that don't want to do that straight away, such as germany, no germany, which has a very high dependency on russian energy said look, we are going to try and reduce it. however, doing it immediately could lead to a recession, it could lead to mass unemployment, it could lead to poverty in our country. what's not good for the german economy will have something that will resonate potentially across the rest of the you. so some have questioned whether this payment in rubles could be

a breach if you sanctions, but officials and ambassadors saying that the advice that's come from you paying commission has been pretty unclear on this. at some point. so the last few weeks the commission is said look, if companies want to open accounts with gas problem, bank pay in euro's or dollars, and then that money is converted to years. that would be completely ok. it's also come out and say, no, this does breach a sanction. so companies are in a situation not feeling particularly clear. it seems that poland is still buying gas from russia or b. now it's happening to do it from germany, which kind of gives you a sense of where some of these other nations, like germany have been coming through and form is that they just not ready for the consequences of turning the taps off to russian energy. just now austria's former minister of foreign affairs, carrington, i still believe, bo gary is dependence on russian gas imports remain strong. and occasionally by guerria,

it is evident that that's to has been very strong connection to the russian guests employed by various definitely a case at stake. also given the the rather low purchase of power off the average for gary citizen. and i remember that in by the area we have seen over the last 15 years at several instances, social unrest because the higher the tricity bills because of high utility prices to topic that is very close to the average like given citizen, i would say. and i can also imagine that officials are especially sensitive to the topic because they're very, very specific history, recent history. elsewhere in europe. yes. another country, spain seems to be caught in an energy trap without jerry, one of its main gas appliance threatening to suspend imports. the house of energy imports is not the own, is not only causing havoc in spain, but also morocco,

one of spain's chief trading partners, and a neighbor of algeria relationships between algeria. anne's morocco took a dive last year of the algiers cut, all ties with its african neighbor along with one of his pipelines. and it's now spain that supplies morocco with gas, which still comes from algeria. austria, is that form of foreign minister? former minister of foreign affairs? karen, can you still again say the l. a. jerry, it's resources are limited. julia has been a traditional supply of natural gas for spain, much more for spain and italy done, for instance, france rogers or sometimes difficult sometimes very strong relations. but julia has come back on dear john, looks from an e. u point a few. like if i may be a little bit ironic out, people are looking on the map and say, well, we don't want to have for gas for russia, so let us look for gas and where and you rehab it, north africa. so

a cheerier has gained some extra duty and everybody speaking a jury on once again. but let us also bear in mind, cheery has all its production limits. it's. it's a country that as an oil producing member country of optic is, is facing it's cheaper logical limits. i have, i've no insight in its current potential as the gas produce and gas ex border. but i know that it has been facing the limits in particular, when it came to toy production on with the last years half the latest on the conflict in ukraine. russia's defense ministry that is forces. how destroyed a ukrainian coach. could you ballistic missile launcher? why have they used to target residential areas in the ukrainian city of kirsten? on thursday, several missiles were apparently find at the t, the tower that were intercepted by russian at defense systems. no casualties were

reported in not to tag. most of it was also commented on a phone strike against military science in kias, russia's defense ministry as it used to high precision method to destroy a ukrainian weapons factory in the city. here the officials came, a residential building was damaged in that attack with one person killed and at least 10 others injured. as russia pressed his own with its military operation in ukraine, a new article in the british media has painted a bleak picture of years as global instability as a result of the war. this comes a midwestern efforts to keep fueling the conflict with weapons supplies to key f, but even some traditionally pro ukrainian commentate to the now questioning the ramifications the war ukraine has experienced sit back in the past few days. a senior ukrainian official announced yesterday that russian troops had taken part of the khaki region. yesterday. russia announced that it has captured the entire

care san region. no ukrainian advances, not good. today is another grim day for ukraine, and as much as i understand your anger, dear ukrainians, i'm going to report what's happening. not what you would like to happen. that are times will come hopefully. but right now russia is crushing the ukrainian defense in many areas. meanwhile, nato's chief stays the warm lights drank on for years. but again, salton berg is still promising to arm ukraine with high tech military equipment used by the u. s. lead block. so we will continue to put the maximum pressure on press the truth in to end the war by imposing sanctions by providing economic support. but those of ministers support to, to ukraine. i'm in need to be prepared for the long term. it's unpredictable. i'm from john situation in ukraine about this. absolutely. the possibility that this war will drag on and loss for months and years. so we are

now, i'm a through and they don't last are preparing to provide support over long periods of time and also help ukraine to, to, to trying to sit or move from all solid era equipment to more and more done natal standard nato supplies. ukraine include arms, ammunition, and defense of equipment like anti tank as a n t i t across the missile systems. us lawmakers have passed a new bill to facilitate the lending of currently unused american military equipment to k. s. washington says it has already sent more than $3000000000.00 worth in 8 to ukraine and find it has requested the congressional approval of another $33000000000.00. however, the us president maintains his country. it doesn't want to get directly involved in ukraine and is not fighting a proxy war against russia. despite the disturbing rhetoric coming of the criminal

facts are playing for everybody to see. we're not attacking russia. we're helping ukraine defend itself against russian aggression. i think is more of a reflection of the truth, but of their failure. and so instead of saying that the, the ukrainians, equipped with some capability and resist russian forces, are they doing this, they've got to say, tell their people, the united states and all of nato is engaged in taking out russian troops. so it shouldn't come as a surprise to any one that he is hiding behind in the rhetoric of peace. because as we saw in iraq, as we saw in study, i'm gonna stand at the united states likes to play an honest broker when in fact it has been nothing but an honest broker. i think that's pretty obvious this. this has been a long term objective since possibly as early as 1991 with the unified

unification of germany, the expansion of nato. ultimately, ukraine has been the week under the valley of russia, as has been identified by the united states for quite a long time. and really the, the us objective in this war, i think maybe 3 fold, ultimately to strengthen america's possession in its unit. polite at the moment, to weaken russia and ultimately be stabilized europe at the cost of ukraine. the u. s. house has overwhelmingly possible legalizing this seizure of russian assets in america, so the money can be sent to ukraine. some representatives, however, came the measure is unconstitutional. giving joe biden unilateral authority to seize property in the united states without any due process sets a dangerous and disturbing precedent. the bill provides essentially no evidence re, standards for assets. seizure contains 0 measures to ensure transparency and

accountability. the bill effectively gives the president a blank check to fund poorly defined democracy and human rights programming and monitoring this vote, as president biden, to violate the 4th amendment, these private property and determine where it would go all without due process. the new legislation allows for the stage of us is worth more than $2000000.00 belonging to those supporting russia. liquidated results is often used to help you craving coding for the purchase of weapons. mostly i was quote, to move a legal and has promised a response. the u. s. initiative has found support is across the atlantic with the irish foreign minister, st. dublin could allow the use of a 1000000000 euros in frozen russian assets to rebuild ukraine. american radio host on elliott say to me by western countries will only punish civilians. the united states government is going to the constitution and fries assets of

a foreign government. but it cannot turn around and use those assets that are seized to distribute to, i mean have a 3rd party. so i would think this would need an act of congress, or we need an act official act from you'd be applied to administration and signing a consent decree to do that. i'm not sure. oligarchy. perform any other service other than i can be. i think it's a pretty picture to see. so you are, i don't know that the oligarchy have any type of influence over the russian military, over the russian government over the russian and challenges. i think it is the intention of the united states in the countries in the west to common russia. regrettably, when you punish a nation for the activities of a government, it trickles down to effect the russian citizens and little effect as far as cost. so the increase in it will be some suffering to the people at large. and that's very unfortunate. well, joe biden say is russian assets in the us should be see for the sake of helping

ukraine un human rights likes both of quote on washington to end. it's for ease of afghan state. this is they could be used to have an economic collapse and widespread starvation in the country. there must be a lot the there are currently too many economic problems. my monthly salary is only 5500 f ganges, but sometimes it is not enough even for my medicine. i don't know how to feed my kids, how to pay rent. somewhere along the column each day is horrible. you have bread one day and the other day you don't. this is all because of the americans were wandering around, were broken, my hand is not working. so i pray for the strength of the taliban government to handle this misfortune caused by the americans to serve the africans. because i can and that i have 7 children. my husband is jobless work, no life. so i do laundry in a neighbor's house to support my family and find a morsel of food for my children. you guys have witnessed all these recent events, how the americans made our lives miserable. and today we are paying the price of

their bad policies and plans find it, administration has for as many $9500000000.00 an assets belonging to the afghans central bank and saw from the taliban takeover in the wake of the us military withdrawal last year in february, by the mission, to know that that part of the funds be used for purposes within the us. instead of taking tackling the humanitarian crisis and i've gone and storm seizing the central bank, funds is left the african economy teetering on the verge of collapse. the united nations as warmly that's going on could reach a near universal universal poverty rate of 97 percent within months. half of us guns are already on the brink of starvation with more than 4000000 having been internally displaced. we discussed the situation with an afghan activist and politician mohammed that we'd marquee, who says that washington has a long history of seizing foreign assets, george w bush, obama and trump killed guns by bombing them,

while by then killing us guns indiscriminately, by depriving them of basic human needs which is food and they can, i'm extension has been a devastating effect on the coming people has been sort of you that people are selling the kid. you know, the other kids just survive. basically what the americans are doing is it's a live injury mentality. the nato got bogged down and basically we're defeated enough gun, it's done and you know, the to get even they want to use the post world war 2 institutions of economic control mechanisms. and deprived of the database needs united to his studio. i mean, behaving like a tv, you know, whenever they take over other people's money or well and so forth,

they keep it until you know, until excuse is satisfied. ah, as us strategic relations with saudi arabia reach new lows, american tv news, tv channels, cbs releases footage of to 911 hijackers with a saudi national who allegedly has connections with re add intelligence. that comes, we come through a bombshell as the report stating that the man might have advanced knowledge of the attack. he's kind of more pin looks the details. sizes in the united states and saudi arabia seemed to be going a bit sour. and that gives the united states chance to play a car that particularly hurts 9. 11. cbs has now dropped a video of one of the hijackers partying with a saudi national back in 2000 annually. released video turned over to family members, $911.00 victims last month along with more than $14000.00 pages of documents. the

evidence obtained from british authorities raises new questions, actually renews an old one. did the saudi government assist the hijackers on 911. the saudis have always deny that explosive question. saudi arabia is now repairing its relationship with iran. embassies should soon be reopening and their respective capitals. that's a move that cannot be favored by the united states. a month ago, we found out about a long suppressed f. b, i report that is saudi national was spying on the united states on behalf of prince bandar, the information about you may obtained on persons of interest in the saudi community in los angeles and san diego, and other issues which meant certain general intelligence presidency requirements would be forwarded to vander vander would then inform the general intelligence presidency of items of interest to the general intelligence presidency for further investigation vetting or follow up the report concluded that this spy couldn't

actually known of the terrorist deadly plans the f b i kept this hidden for years now that report dropped a month ago when the white house was going ahead to head with re odd over oil price negotiations in vain. there was some expectation of a phone call, but it didn't happen. it was part of turning on the spigot of saudi oil. it's not bad that more information about a deadly terrorist attack that killed thousands of americans and the perpetrators and some of their shady connections is being released. but what is concerning is that it seems like the deaths of thousands of americans and finding out the truth about how it happened is turning into a bargaining chip. why was this information not released a long time ago in order to help prosecute those responsible for a deadly crime? why is it now being released as a point of political pressure? now let's be fair. i think if we had an honest government, this material should have been out in the open a long time. the. this is not so much. why are they releasing it?

why haven't they released it up till now? i'm looking for a way to alienate reality even further. this is a very short way to do it. so these are brutally realistic when looking out for their own interest and the current context. they can see that with the weakening of american global power, that rushes strengthening china is strengthening u. s. relationship with saudi arabia, and particularly between the demonstration and saudi arabia. is that a record flow? if they think they're going to force somebody ravia to get back on the american reservation, i think this is actually going to alienate them further. hey, political party in the netherlands has raised questions about how ukraine's president lensky a client is estimated to $850000000.00. 14 zalinski owns a fortune. various estimates put it at around $850000000.00. he didn't get most of this until after he took office, is president. so where does that money come from?

and more importantly, where is it going? the assets of the landscape, along with his in a cycle have already been the subjects have a broad investigation. previous leak documents from the so called pandora papers with their ownership and a network of offshore companies. the findings came to prior to his elections. lensky handed his share in a significant fun to a friend who would like to become his chief aid. however, according to the papers, the president's family continued to receive money from the off show, which $1.00 i from bushings the modification of as he says, the assets of all europeans, it should be under scrutiny, including ukrainians on the president, president of the country to be off you know, fairly sizeable countries from a 1000000 population, they need to disclose their interests and it is legitimate, perfectly legitimate. talk about the, the finance and the background. also, many people are quite curious. how is it possible for, for, for some people to

a mass oligarch level of wealth, when the facial korea doesn't really seem to give many opportunities, this is required nowadays of every ordinary person in europe starting, you know, companies and business bank accounts. so of course, it's quite natural that also the president of a european country, such as ukraine should follow the same procedures at which on american procedures to asian. now, washer lanka is in negotiations with china on a debt restructuring phase with an economic crisis. the country hopes to find support from its creditors. colombo has already highlighted the support it has received from organizations. it owes the international monetary funds to well bank and others. although shoreline is external debt to china, accounts, which is 110th of all of its loans painting has been criticized by the west for its

role in the crisis. among other major credit says are the ins, the asian development bank, and japan. 2 weeks ago, she lanka declared didn't default on the external debts. they said their economic situation sparking protests with many people facing shortages of food medicine and energy resources. we asked shoreline can about the difficulties they face. we don't have, well we don't have gas, we don't have electricity, we don't have food. we don't have a magazine. so no one gone live in this country. they don't get any get that today . the 3rd day like tv got some guys here and not only for gas, also the guarantee that many people falling in line for us. i think more than 3 days though, i'm here. what made it better people to more than 3. it is very old people that don't even walk mail standing there for line, and then they don't get it. it's a very sad situation in sri lanka, to be honest, re lanka, is not what we were all. viva rav 4 last 75 years. the word rob on british

iraq by utopians, viva rock by 3 long consolidation viva rock. by car business professional. we were robbed by the government and today we are paying the reserve . we discussed the talks between china entre lanka with doctor swim. l. fernando, a specialist in international relations. she long guys, a small nation, is a very significant part in its security dynamics, economic dynamics, as well as political interest in, in it's, in china, diplomatic interest in the $11.00 bill initiative. so, so china playing a major role in developing port cities and harbors is a part of the one you should do. small islands like our sri lanka, more it's more issues, re union islands and seizures are significant. part of

it was the engine treat route that connects africa a far east as well as not. these are 60 percent off. the global energy goes to this indian ocean, this stretch off islands and no longer being part of the 5 island. and thanks for joining us. here and i say international, we're back in the top of the out with the very latest to see them with with ah,

no one list and i'm not real sure. what the real deliberation? ah, unit 731 was a unique organization in the history of the world. what they were trying to do was to simply do nothing short and build the most powerful and most deadly biological weapons program that the world had ever known. real enough. when suddenly he moved to new mazda thought. this is miss nunez warner and i got the sale. i understood,

i wish to know about julie hill who knew he didn't more in jail it's i had a little cold and weather and all buddy bill, you know, nice little to do you want to on this? she my new on it. i don't know. i don't the, you know, put them out to give us the news for us. you can do it for you talking to children.
