but what about the officially enforced narrative claiming ukraine is winning? the wes attempt to weaken russia have failed. in fact, the west is weakening itself. with gas prices skyrocketing, you are a part of ukraine suspends a key transit supply route, while hungry. panic said that proposed e u m fargo on russian oil we want to give on, okay, there are no proposed solutions on dealing with what will be equal to an atomic bombing of hungary economy in the event of a possible embargo on russian oil. and then while british authorities raise the alarm, after more than a 100 incidents of open fires and local homes, as residents turn off the gap resorts of firewood to save money. we discussed a biden's plan to prolong the war in ukraine by giving here $40000000000.00 more dollars in support. but the panel of experts, ukraine is only a proxy to

a larger issue for the united states. as long as the military contractors can sell lego billions and billions of dollars, there are more than happy to keep a war ending to walk away. so i thought a special coverage focus is on the on told stories of ukrainian refugee, many of whom have played to russia despite objections with welcome based on the international with the world news update is good to happy with gas prices in europe. have surge to $1100.00 per 1000 cubic meters. as off the ukraine's transit operator announced it will stop sending one 3rd of the russian gas that travels through the country and into europe. the ukrainian operate to say the gas will no longer be accepted through to distribution stations, fighting technological and operational medlin's. i caused unforeseeable cycle

dances, preventing contract obligations from being fulfilled the pipelines in question i used to trans. at gast, hungary, austria, germany on slovakia with the economies of those countries now expected to bear the brunt of ukraine suspension of transit rushes gowns from say this, these are valid reasoning behind. keeps move, as all of moscow's operations remain in order from nipple which you guys problem has not received any confirmation of the circumstance to the force measure clause. we do not see any obstacles for continuing to work in the previous mode. in transit has been provided in full. there would be no complaints during the calendar year. the transfer volumes to subsets based on the russian flow scheme, optical. technologically. meanwhile, germany's talk diplomat, alina bay, a book, has been met with a wave of criticism from some of her national colleagues. i thought i saw the she said, but it intends to completely stop its importance of energy supplies from russia. how may i have understood more than clearly that economic dependence does not bring

security if the aggressor simply does not care about the wellbeing of its people? and that is why we are decisively reducing our dependence on russian energy to 0 and doing so forever. i also believe now is the time to take a closer look at who is affected the most. there is global demand for coal, oil and gas. energy is the achilles heel of any economy. we are talking about the fact that we are stopping production that we are losing workplaces. germany has reportedly failed to reach an agreement with katha on alternative energy supplies off the bill and turned to the golf state. i made efforts to cut dependents on imports from russia. council allegedly was to secure a contract for at least 20 years with guarantees the discount supplies will not be rerouted to the european countries. however, germany is reportedly refusing to commit itself to such a long term deal without permission to redistribute the importance from german political commentator. i go home and say the sanctions don't seem to be holding

russia, but are instead crushing european economies respect to the to mrs. bad bach, she and the rest of her ministry has no, no clue on economy at all. so what she is doing is she is talking things that somebody told her to talk about or to, to say, but this doesn't make anything for the german economy. it's a catastrophe. it is a catastrophe because without energy, the economy breaks apart. we have already the highest energy costs in the world. we already have the highest taxation and other give away costs in the world. so the, what we have to pay to the government is already the highest in the world. this makes it altogether a disadvantage against all the economy in the world. this is tremendous that you has no plan. and this is like most things the you does, it is without caught through, it's not working. and it is

a big disaster in the sense of the people. but if you consider that the, you're the head of the commission law on the line is a great supporter of the great reset program from close drop in. it's only got a club, then it doesn't make very much sense. and then she succeeds in her plan to crush the german or the european economy. you remember, hungary says it cannot agree to a complete and bar go on russian oil imports because such moved by brussels would annihilate the country's economy. we want to book iran. ok, there were no proposed solutions on dealing with what would be equal to an atomic bombing upon greece. economy in the event of a possible embargo on russian oil imports agrees resistance to the proposed e. u ban on russian oil imports has intensified off the hungary prime minister met with other e. u. leaders who according to hungarian officials, have no idea on how to deal with the effects of the rising oil prices. hungary,

hesitation has now thought be eager to move as the union cannot proceed without a unanimous decision from other e. u members, including greece, are also faring for their economies. we discussed the crisis with austria's former foreign minister carrying can i? so there are several voices claiming that an oil embargo can be imposed. a circuit post i'll embargo jury by the end of the suite because you asked about the other countries here. there are the refuse they're wanted. voices are hungary slop achia check republic and also by guerria increased to a certain extent. ah, what might most probably happen is that they will receive exemptions phasing out clauses. there were some carrot and stick treatment, but so far to hunger and position has been

a very blunt one. hungary is definitely the key, a kind of tree in order to reach a consensus for for such an island. barbara. so we are far from a consensus, but it looks like there could be a handling on different layers with surging prices on all energy resources, amid delivery disruptions. millions of people in the u. k. may reportedly be unable to pay their energy bills in the coming months to reduce expenses on he thinks on british locals are now starting open fires inside their own homes. as our teeth shall a deep ascii reports. rising energy prices have been a concern for months, but now the reality is really hitting home u. k. households have already seen an increase of more than 50 percent bringing annual bills to around 2000 pounds. now there are warnings that this could shoot up

to $3000.00 pounds a year by october. the head of one energy firm fee is millions of households will struggle to pay their bills this winter. it will hit incredibly hard and immediately i think we will see a huge increase in pre payment customers, in effect, self disconnecting, not reloading their pre payment meter because they can't afford to do it. although the u. k has a relatively small dependency on russia for gas and oil energy firms are susceptible to huge price hikes if they buy or the wholesale market. now, sanctions against russia, as a result of the warring crane, have pushed markets hot as countries scramble to shore up their supplies. some u. k. households are apparently taking drastic measures to try and reduce their bills, firefighters to issue a warning for people to stop burning. open fires in doors that came off to man was

rushed to hospital for doing just that he was said to have been trying to avoid using his gas central heating. we know this is a difficult time and people are thinking about ways to reduce their energy bills, but we're really concerned that they may be putting lives at risk by doing so. the foyer brigade has said that this wasn't even a loan incident. there have apparently been more than a 100 similar cases in the past few months. now of the stories about what people have been doing to stay warm have also emerged. the british prime minister was recently confronted about one of those. this was about a pensioner who rides the bus all day, apparently, to avoid heating her own home for a stalls and sparked ango when he boasted that it was, in fact, he who had given pensioners a free bus pass kind of missing the point and rising costs are said to be impacting people's ability to even put food on the table. more than 2000000 adults at the u.

k. say they've skipped meals due to a lack of finances. the extremely rapid rise in food insecurity since january points to a catastrophic situation for families. food insecurity puts families under extreme mental stress and forces people to survive on the cheapest calories, which lead to health problems. here in the u 2, there are fears over rising energy bills as european leaders try to agree on a new batch ship sanctions to halt or oil imports from russia. there is still resistance from some new members. hungry leader has described this option as akin to dropping a nuclear bomb on his country's economy. all of this could come to a head sooner rather than later. the deadline for e u countries to pay for russian gas in rubles is looming. the block has said it

will refuse to do that, meaning it now faces supplies being cut off by moscow expos have warned that the inflation rate in the u. k. has reached an uncomfortably high level, after exceeding all forecasts with the numbers reported expected to keep rising. for years, we took to the streets of london to gauge reaction from locals. the cost of living in london has always been ridiculous. inflation and prophecy process has been well above what the state of the all measure of inflation has been. it's an absolute crime. it's an economic crime that has been allowed to happen. and the reason it's been allowed to have missed because the people in charge or a highly capitalized and so have benefited from it and are effectively becoming enslaved to this economic system. inflation went up to the roof. so i think it's horrible. i say, unless you have a family that's able to help you, young people purchase a property, it's, it's a serious issue and i think the market will crash. you have x amount each week if

you're a certain wage, and thereafter, if you have no extra the next. and joe, he, tim bused all the bills the into the do you do not have an extra to full bath except to, to moment the government trauma do something about the u. s. president has expressed concern about russia strategy in ukraine, claiming moscow does not have a way out of its military campaign. in the meantime, he has promised care that a $40000000000.00 worth of weapons and support from americans are asking why the money is not being spent at home. hey, joe biden, word on the street is, is that you promised vladimir zalinski another $130000000.00 at the g 7 meeting yesterday? yeah. where are we going to get that? are you going to keep printing money? that printing machine must be running out of ink. and by the way, have you taken a look at flint, michigan, or detroit or seattle or portland. 7 they looked like 3rd world countries. now

the newly signed ukraine democracy defends lend lease, act that date. the 1941 law, which the us used to help allies during world war 2. it allows america to expedite military equipment and other supplies to ukraine and with more heavy weaponry on the way some us officials are suggesting the only way out of the conflicts is if key of winds putin now seems to wants to transform his genocidal war into a frozen conflict in ukraine. he cannot allow this to happen. don't lose focus. total ukrainian victory is the goal. meanwhile, pens gone, press secretary, john kirby and his latest and to be with folks, news claimed that there was a flow of lethal weapons from the u. s. to ukraine before the conflicts even started by the administration was flowing in weapons well before the invasion, the 1st $1000000000.00 that the president committed to ukraine did include legal assistance. and that was before, before decided to move in. earlier we discussed the issue with

a panel of guests. ukraine is only a proxy to, to a larger issue for the united states in terms of its unipolar world order leadership. it sees it dwindling itself and it's trying to keep a cohesive effort with nato and but the e u countries. and that's beginning to crumble as a result of this. as far as i'm concerned, if the united states wasn't pushing all of this and pushing russia to the hilt, nato, the nato countries never would have found themselves in this position. they never would have wanted to have a war to see us couldn't succeed in afghanistan or in iraq. the idea of them succeeding against russia is, is slim to non existent. however, as long as the military contractors can sell mega weapons and billions and billions

of dollars, they are more than happy to keep a war. any war going is a system that exists on war and on war profits. if russia continues to push forward with its current campaign, and the end result will be the destruction of the vast majority of ukraine's existing regular army. if russia wants to turn this into a stalemate, let's say after seizing or reach out, you're, you are gaining control guns, getting done yet. in the southern tier, russia holes in the west continues to provide billions of dollars of advanced weaponry to ukraine and gives ukraine enough time to assimilate this material and train their troops. you know, they were talking a different kind of war. we've actually created a self fulfilling prophecy in pushing russia closer to, to china as a consequence. and that this is the last thing the united states ever wanted. but

yet we created it for ourselves. we create our own problems. we, we should ourselves, in the, not the foot, but in the head. this could stop tomorrow. if there was any slow down on the part of by, there's not, it is intended, the break all relations between the european union and russia, their main source of gas and fuel and grain to the world. this is we'll create famine throughout africa and the u. s. knows it very well, and they're determined to go ahead anyway. so for him to say he doesn't know what it would take for putting it out. we got to say that it's biden who knows how to end this tomorrow. a village in russia, southwest spelled about wage and has been shelled by ukraine's military. according to the local governor, one person has been injured and some property has been destroyed. no other damage has been reported down to emergency services are understood to be assisting those

in the area. ah, the russian defense ministry has said that 15 ukrainian command points were destroyed overnight and south and southeast of the country, along with 17 ammunition death hose to sum of a total of $500.00 military targets destroyed. with the nation denounced the operation ukraine as an unprovoked attack or russian 4 minutes a 2nd line for his accused, the west of make a concerted effort to undermine the principles of sovereign states and a joint press conference with the money for a minister laugher of added that he hopes the successful resolution of the operation will help alleviate such western attacks with the games that we expect that the completion of our military operation and the achievements of all the goals within its framework will help stop the attack of the west to undermine international law ignore and grossly violate the principle of the un charter, including the principle of the sovereign equality of states,

post the west to stop promoting the so called unipolar well under the dominant, the united states and its allies. the era colonialism is the things that property correct and everyone should accept goods on the prospects of a war in europe. but we do not want that at all 3, but i would like to draw your attention to the fact that it is the west, italy in a safe rush, you must be defeated, and there is a new ation. you can surely throw your own conclusions in the sanctity of private property, the presumption of everything that western civilization was boasted. all these years was funded. and so principles of it's a formation. all of this is been derailed and grossly violated. so we have already drawn our own conclusion, i guess we will depend on ourselves and reliable partners of the fossil majority of the outside. so called elite when, well, there's a lot more than 6000000 people have left. ukraine says the start of the war with around 8000000 displaced according to un data. experts say the crisis has already become one of the biggest in europe's history. and it will affect almost all of the

continents. russia has taken a more than 1000000 of the refugees despite ukraine warning its citizens against going there. he has launched a special series to bring you some of the untold stories he, the teaser of the 1st episode. some did manage to escape key of control territories and the fleet to rush up like a lorna here, my uncle, down until 2nd week. then when the conflict begin on february 24th, we did not leave until the last moment arrived at the russian refugee center ourselves. volunteers madison de border and offered us water and food. and while there's no place like home alone, i can definitely see her future in the small light. now hostile, i would like to return to see the city restored. i would return to normal life, but we will hear anti gun rog here to wait to rush an hours, have some ukrainians people when he fled to russia they, they're pleased with their re settlement that his part of the 2nd throughout the past 8 years, keith made an exuberance credence,

every civilian can and will be a little in my one of the latest tragedies came just short of 2 months. he of consider its own citizens, perished ah, with many like this a family from the frontline town, a resume which is now under the russian control. drew very carts shelling here. we have small children. we are afraid for the safety of fought tubes propaganda. machine is spinning in overdrive spearing out um as preposterous and outrageous as claiming the russians booby trapped dead bodies all this misinformation he did, we do not believe what you chron, intellivision, sadder, russia and ukraine. in addition, when your 4th analyst makes,

do not think russia should be feared, i'm sorry, and why identity that the children also brought up, that there is nothing to fear in the russian people from day and lay nines is still history day. we still celebrate just luckily, evil ukraine's in for war battalions, a tried southern russian. it, i have friends and relatives in the i'm not afraid to go there. i got a scary here ah, during an israeli army rate on the west bank refugee camp of jen and south dorothy inflamed each other for the death of serene upper atlanta who was also in the following images disturbing. the so she chose the moment softer. the veteran correspond, it was shown apparently in the face despite wearing a press vest, had produced that was all so short lived in a stable ministry. the body of the journalist has been taken to allow hu morgue. and now just there, a statement claims advert actually was assassinated in blatant murder, violating international laws and norms. the israeli occupation forces assassinated

in cold blood al jazeera is correspondent in palestine, while conducting her journalistic duty. defies her. a journalist covering the israeli occupation forces storming of jeanine refugee camp in the west bank as wildly that palestinian gunfire killed the reporter, proposing a joint in that in all authority which has refused the often palestinians believe that the report was murdered by as well. according to the information we've gathered, it appears likely that armed palestinians who were indiscriminately firing at the time, were responsible for the unfortunate death of the journalist. we have offered the palestinians a joint pathological investigation into the sad death of journalists. charlene, ob, walk law journalists must be protected in conflict zones and we all have a responsibility to get to the truth. let me ask, when does the criminal have the right to take part in the investigation against his victim? we reject and refuse the participation of any israelis in this kind of investigation

. they have to be taken to the international court. we call on the i c. j to open an investigation into the killing of serene and other crimes committed against the palestinians. independent journalist and political commentator which had met her faith, it's unclear how the slain journalist could have been mistaken for a competence. we've all seen the videos there, absolutely her epic, her entire face was, was blown off. it's almost the gut wrenching. and i find incredible that, you know, the israeli prime minister laughter, the bennett or these really foreign ministry are putting out these claims, these mis that she was killed by palestinian gunfire. so i've seen the twitter video that these really foreign ministry posts where they claim that she might have been hit by palestinian gunmen. neither the video nor the audio match the one where we actually see her on the ground and live and lifeless. and the other journalist with her were also being shot that i think this is very important to underline that

this wasn't just one sniper who shot one bullet at her and killed her. even though it's obviously a very precise marksmanship, but the entire group of journalists, the other journalists that she was with her colleagues from other news agencies and not just from 0, they were also being shot at. and you can see that in the multiple videos that have been released this morning. and this is very clearly it's an attack on the press. as i find it very hard to believe that these really forces cannot tell the difference between so called palestinian gunmen and journalists who have very clear press markings or wearing bullet proof vests for wearing a capital investment wearing a helmet. this is very, very clear. an investigation is now under way author has requested more information on the incident from al jazeera bureau and both the israeli and palestinian science . but it is still to receive a response will keep you updated. the 7th fleet has, once again entered the taiwan straits drawer and criticism from chinese officials for quote, sending the wrong signals to the island. earlier,

the us state department edited its website to move it takes about not recognizing taiwanese independence from china. china in return, referred to the incident as a quote trick by washington to revive his position on ty, once political states, as warning that the move would come back to her. the u. s. r t is, caleb morgan has more on countries at loggerheads with each other. taiwan is china's sensitive spot when it comes to foreign policy. and you can be sure to get a prompt and strongly worded response. when you mentioned it. may yvonne say the west, his latest modification of the fact sheet is a trick to obscure and right off the one china principal, history cannot be rewritten, the facts cannot be denied and right and wrong should not be distorted guy made. so what exactly did washington do? well, they edited their website and they removed the part about not recognizing the island as being independent of china. here's what it used to say. united states recognized

the government of the people's republic of china as the sole legal government of china, acknowledging the chinese position that there is but one china and taiwan as part of china. the united states does not support taiwan independence. and here is what it says. now obviously, washington plans to expand their engagement their taiwan is a key us partner in the endo pacific the united states in taiwan, share similar values, deep commercial and economic links, and strong people to people, ties which form the bedrock of our friendship and serve as the impetus for expanding us engagement with taiwan. china seas this as a straight up provocation from the united states. they're hinting at a rather strong response to on such political manipulation of the tie. one question and the attempt to change the status quo across the taiwan strait will hurt the us itself in this that seems pretty well timed with the us lead summit taking place in

washington later this week. the block of 10 south eastern nations. that surprisingly does not include china, is expected to discuss ways to counter beijing's influence in the region. in turn, the u. s. will continue to promote its endo pacific strategy released just 3 months ago. just to show how much chinese people are affected by these plans. a poll recently conducted showed that 89 percent of chinese people view the indo pacific strategy as their regions version of nato, and they see it as a danger with us media and politicians beating the drum against china. american public opinion has been impacted as well. a gallop poll, taken back in february, showed that 79 percent of us adults have a negative opinion of the country. also in april, a pew survey ran to china's unpopularity at 82 percent. so much tension currently

going on in the world. the binding administration seems just not have caused enough rockets. they now want to intensify the conflict with the country that is the largest on earth in terms of population and a major global economic player. it's not clear where the american people really benefit from this strategy of intensifying conflict across the planet will have a change of diplomacy. the, the original text was written at the time when with the influence of such realist phone calls of its type diplomats such as henry kissinger, who was one of the architects of us, china policy and the opening. today we have a mishmash of diplomats driven by neo liberal neoconservative values which are want to project us power militarily, everywhere. that is not going to diminish in any way because china is definitely the existential the super power that's on the rise. the only way to resolve any

to get back to diplomacy is of.
