massive sanctioned western economies are in trouble who blame 1st a with a demand for western long range rocket launchers may have dire consequences, warns rushes top. diplomats. it is also a direct provocation, aimed at pulling western countries into direct military hostility. in europe, their politicians who are ready to sponsor this madness for the sake of satisfying their own ambitions. nobody below his dad should follow with whatever you can use both desperation and make the destruction of the ukrainian military's deadly shelling of 2000000000 areas that don't. yes, with plus or minus warnings, the thumb

a few shortages ago and he did as well. the latest press on with a band on russian oil imports. despite ordinary people facing thorn crisis, everything is doubling up going up food as well. everything but the bridge is not good enough for us already gonna survive. welcome. you're watching all the international with the latest world news. it's good to have you with us. now ukraine wants to receive a long range will kit launches from western countries in order to draw those nations into a direct conflict with russia that's according to foreign minister. so gay, laugh up speaking off to a summit with the gulf co operation council in saudi arabia, i thought sure to be a booth for the june, the dissipated soule, the unappealing, dull and proprietary manner in which the key of regime demands weapons from its western patrons. goes beyond the bounds of decency and diplomatic communication. it

is also a direct provocation aimed at pulling western countries into direct military hostilities . of course, the same western politicians understand these risks. i must say that in europe and especially in its northern part, you mirror politicians who are ready to sponsor this madness for the sake of satisfying their own ambitions. but serious countries in the you certainly understand the unacceptability of such scenarios for. and we have also heard signs of reasonable assessments of such scenarios from washington. washington has agreed to send a new $700000000.00 military aid package to ukraine. that includes advanced to us made rocket launches. the high mile system is capable of hating targets up to 300 kilometers away, but only if equipped with long range rounds that however job might and has refused to provide such long range missiles to ukraine, saying he doesn't want keith's military to be able to find them into russia, however, an anonymous official cited by the new york times said that even from an 80 kilometer

distance, ukrainian forces could still hit russian territory if firing near the border. but to us state secretary says ukraine has promised that it will not use the american made weapons to fire into russia. weapon systems being provided. the ukrainians have given us assurances that they will not use the systems against targets on russian territory. there is a strong trust bond between ukraine, the united states, despite ukraine's president promising not to attack russian territory. border regents in the countries west have come on the increased selling by ukrainian forces. in recent weeks. several people have been killed in the russian regions of belgrade. and tusk and others wounded info nash these on verify damages purportedly . so some of those attacks while russian defense systems have also reported the intercept. the drones and missiles launched from ukraine, according to play in contrast, exists between kiev and washington. but between moscow and the landscape,

there is none of the cramming spokes person on the lines that was to be h to be trusted. one must have experience of cases where promises would catch. unfortunately, there is no such experience here at all. on the contrary, take the whole course of events show that something of the landscape main election promised the envelope ward in the south east of ukraine once and for all their promises not being kept against the race to arm. ukraine, sparks divisions among you. members with countries divided on whether to opt for a military or a diplomatic approach. artie contribute to rachel marston has more crass or merging on the western french over they continued supply of where it's cheap right. washington and london represent one can, but also include some central and eastern european countries. they believe that ukraine is capable of calling back increasingly loss territory from russia control . sh if only they were provided with the right weapons. and that's why you as

president, your mind says that he's now authorizing new precision rockets for ukraine capable of hitting targets, 80 kilometers away. that's double the current capacity is part of the new $700000000.00 weapons package from uncle sam. by name wasn't long reluctant to provide these longer range weapons given the risk of escalation. but now, by launching himself right across his own previously to line red line and going all in here thing on promises made by ukrainian officials not to use these long range weapons on targets inside russia. i know what the union people are in the united states are saying, where someone in the white house are saying that we might be using them to tech russia. look, we're not, we're planning to attack russia. we're not interested in russian federation. we're not fighting on their territory. it's been like getting a teenager to keep your ferrari because he promises easy armies of speed by road in new york times. often this week that washington doesn't seek out. russian president

vladimir putin for power, or it is hard to conflict between russian nato. we do not seek a war between night. so in russia, as much as i disagree with mister putin and find his actions an outrage, the u. s. will not try to bring about his ouster in moscow so long as the u. s. o our allies, i'm not attacked, we will not be directly engaged in this conflict. we do not want to prolong the wool just to inflict pain on russia late for that, considering we create and fighters are already and continue to be nato arms. washington's objectified says, is to help you credit rating on bass while getting leverage at the negotiating table. maybe you can start by showing you training president of a lot of years once you where exactly that table is. because apparently he and his officials are having a lot of trouble finding it and making their way there is days. ryan shot gun on his reckless jury ride is none other than british prime minister horse johnson, like britain often dies when washington embarks on misguided foreign military

ventures. johnson has being ending on his american counterparts to provide weapons while insisting that there be no negotiation between crane and russia. the prime minister shared his conviction that ukraine would when supported with the right level of defensive military assistance. he urged against any negotiations with russia on terms that gave credence to the kremlin false narrative for the invasion, but stressed that this was a decision for the korean government. but france and germany are increasingly divorcing themselves from the rhetoric of their new allies. paris and berlin's reluctance to provide long range weapons is dictated by their doubts about ukraine's ability to reclaim any territory from russia control, particularly after the loss of dom that they consider been negotiated. peace is in ukraine's best interests rather than strategy that relies on the unpredictability of military force. president emanuel macro and chancellor schoultz once again

emphasize the president putin, that any solution to the war must be negotiated between moscow and kev. frustrated . ukrainian additional have been bro, beating france, and germany over this low speed of weapons delivery over the weekend, putting more into french and german count, departure president, him i read that whole and chance. they're all actual of the risks of ukraine western i've been saying that it could cause further. it was ation situation and also aggravating humanitarian crisis. but what a frankie, germany can talk sent into washington in london. still ultimately given the pressure still remains to be seen. what we can now cross to independent political analyst over dr. i thank you for joining us on the program is good to see you, but would you agree it that what we're seeing here, deepening divisions among the you countries and if so, just how big do expects this rift to guess the division of the b. c. no,

we're only surface scratches the think we after way to good for the blow back from the sanctions to take effect. i would not read too much into the difference of opinion between the per, the prime minister of lafayette and the french president on the way forward. there's a lot of talk on there. this talk is noise. be relevant. facts are on the ground in ukraine, on the russian forces are making daily progress in their mission of control of the dumbass control of the fair. so list and probably to sweep the entire black sea coast under their direct or indirect control. the evidence i see from my perch in st. petersburg are watching closely. russian news is a change in that news which indicates a change in the course of

a war in russia state. as far more coverage from the front lines showing the recently taken bunkers and positions of the ukrainians showing the city of standard on which on like previous towns taken by the russian forces from ukrainians has not been destroyed. but the grains they simply were running away too fast, running away too fast because they are losing badly. the that is the, the left is what will dictate the terms of a piece, if there is a piece to be side or the reality of a, of a cease fire, which may be a frozen conflict. so all of them know what mr. johnson is saying that my microphone is saying what to underlay and saying, what all of our political analysts are saying, as they daily discussed what should be the terms of the piece tree tree in russia

and ukraine law. i'm sorry, largely the relevant effects will depend on how seriously the inane policies but the he you with respect to sanctions. i motion hydrocarbons affect the economies of western your if they have a devastating effect which is quite likely then that will change the dialogue within europe. and possibly these largely incompetent governments of some of them alliances of parties, common will be overcome by realities that are unpleasant, but after the face. so they may just be surface scratches right now, but there are differences between the members. how do you expect brussels to try and tackle those differences? where the steamroller? we have seen a tremendous change in the persona of the chairman of the president of the urban

commission wonderland. she was brought in with the backing of president macro. as a real european person grew up in brussels. it was a german who was a french speaker name the speaker real cousin polk personality. the reality that we see today is a lady with a very fierce expression on her face, met a meanness and nastiness. and while mister shows denied, the russian accusations of nuts isn't being rep into ukraine. i think if you look closely at your, your own news at western television, you'll see on the face of modern of madame upon domain a perfect air to good. those we have running in the european parliament a very strong street of german imperial test, which is not good. this came out and mister shaw speaks to the, to the wonder start in which he was overwhelmed with joy at the prospect of germany,

shedding its, its inhibitions, creating the largest army in europe. that is sad news. i was never a fan and i think many of us were not fans. movie of a chance. the movie we left who left office in the new when a new government came in. but her years in as the head of the chancellor of germany far. com. i'm a reasonable and far more professional that we see than the government running europe's largest most powerful country. and this is sad news to the doctor in dependent political analysts. many thanks for joining us today and sharing your thoughts with as a really appreciate that. thank you, lose your europe could face fuel shortage of the summer. that's a stock warning for the international energy agency chief as he caution that the current european energy crisis was much bigger than the oil shock for the $970.00.

when the main holiday season starts in europe, in the u. s. fuel demand will rise, then we could see shortages, for example, with diesel petro or kerosene, particularly in europe. back in the 1970 s, it was just about oil. now we have an oil crisis, a gas crisis in an electricity crisis, simultaneously the policy or is already seen gasoline prices saw in europe rising nearly 40 percent? well, diesel prices have seen and even sharper increase of almost 45 percent hitting all time european heis. amid the rising prices, e u leaders are preoccupied with a fresh round of sanctions against moscow. as they've announced a ban on the majority of russian oil pumps to the block, to coming to force by the end of this year. as despite resistance from hungaria and prime minister victor open, who stays cutting off oil supplies would be like an atomic bombing of the country's economy. or the ban on russian oil is aimed at taking

a stand against moscow for the ease. this is an illegal conflict and ukraine. europeans on both sides of the english channel, are not pleased with the rising costs of living while accusing that governments have failing to do enough to help ease the burden on ordinary people. the civil fucked isn't price and guess it does make sense. it's ridiculous is doubling. everything's doubling up, going up food as well. everything but the bridge is not good enough for us all region to survive. if you want to make sanctions, you have to be, i don't know that about half measures and when marker expects of other countries to, to follow this sanctioned federal put forward towards the russians. you have to follow them too. so it's absolutely the correct decision to keep not paying russians for gas from, rubles, i'm spending more, i mean, is in every thing, it's not even to the food it's, it's in the electric. if everything that you have,

everything has gone up to put them up, the gas going up, the input essential things have gone up. international energy experts mondo seller may believe sanctions on russia will destroy the use purchasing power. and europeans will really feel the cold. this coming winter, the west, some sanctions, ah, hurting the economy's own goes on in boise you, them rather than russia, there is a limit how much you spend on energy prices and being skyrocketing in energy, really. i mean, i know of you does have a son hi, son living. but even them are banged through the nose. and the indications is that energy prices are going to stay with us for quite a why. because as i said, there is hardly any spirit of progress to capacity for oil or refining

capacity. so they have to go with higher prices for, for longer period. and when you, on the western sanctions against russia, these prices can only go one way and that's upward. and that will destroy that better think bowler. and of course, some of them will feel because a wind guard of this coming g u. s. companies are now willing to buy unsanctioned wheat and fertilizer from russia, but only with comfort letters from the government starts off to washington, did its best to assure firms that he's going to destroy the russian economy. that's was like to watch the correspondence. caleb, more pin. now caleb, so how are americans being affected by the food crisis? sure, well here in the united states, we're seeing the costs of food increasingly rising. and there are many companies

that have very big insecurities about doing business with russia at this point. russian exports like food and fertilizer. they are not technically subject us sanctions, but u. s. companies are quite nervous about putting in orders and doing financial transactions with russian companies related to that. we have u. s. officials stepping up to the plate and saying that they will offer what they call comfort letters to reassure companies that they'll be able to proceed with their transactions. but it really shouldn't be a surprise that american companies might be worried and anxious about doing business with russia. let's review what u. s. officials have set our message to and to any country continues to be that obviously abide by the sanctions. but that, that we are, we have put in place and recommended. i don't believe this would be violating that . but also think about where you want to stand when, when the history books are written in this moment in time. china is already on the

wrong side of history when it comes to ukraine in the aggression, been committed by russia, the sanctions measures we impose today. i think without question, for the most consequential ever levied on russian, arguably the most consequential ever levied in history or inflicting pain on russia and supporting the people of ukraine that every country should abide by the sanctions that we have announced that we are implementing. we continue to urge all countries to avoid major new transactions for russian weapon systems, particularly in light of what rushes doing want to ukraine or curtailed their operations in russia at this point. and it's important to note that while of food and grain as well as fertilizer are not technically subject to sanctions, russian vessels that would deliver such things as they are subject to sanctions. and in fact, half the world is closed to flights from russia at this point. so this is joe biden describing how they've basically prevented russian flight signed and flights

connecting to russia. this is joe biden, so we will join our allies in closing off american aerospace to all russian flesh and nations. trying to broker deals to make sure that russian grain is exported, trying to make sure that we can somehow work to stave off the pending food crisis. but we have russian foreign minister, sergei lab round stepping up and saying, look, this crisis is really to blame. it's, it's on the hands of the united states. this is what he said, premium or grade school. is it a math? in addition to ukranian grain which is locked up due to the policy of the key of regime? there are also problems with the export of russian grain. although western countries vocally state that there were no sanctions on grain for some reason, they are shamefully silent on the fact that ships carrying this grain have actually fallen under restrictions. and all the logistics and financial chains related to

the supply of grain to world markets have been sanctioned by our western colleagues who is now at this point, we see the world reacting to the consequences of usa waging economic warfare against russia. and at this point, they're scrambling to try and prevent a food crisis that seems to respond by us sanctions. of course, while they scrambled to deal with a crisis, they themselves are created. they try to blame it somehow on russia. i think correspondent caleb moore primly. thanks for that. now we spoke to the editorial director for the reactionary times website, julio rivera, who says that the sanctions confuse businesses and makes citizens lives and barrier unbearable. doesn't make a lot of sense. the sanctions were so wide spread, you know, as far as our why didn't sweeping that it makes it difficult for american companies to know whether or not they're going to be in violation of those sanctions. should they do business with russia? so i think got a lot of the confusion that was set there by the united states government when they

and the governments around the world when they actually impose a lot of the things. and i think that they're going to have to clarify or either start to lift some of these sanctions. i mean, the rest of the world needs to eat. i mean the fertilizer that we, that core and all those things are very vital to the world. so we're gonna have to figure out a new way to get around. a lot of these imposed sanctions. this become almost like livable in the united states. i mean, the cost of living is so high. there's so many americans living from check the check they have to make a decision as to whether they're going to put gas in their car or whether they're going to put food on their table. and that's unfortunately something that a lot of americans are facing now. tie one's president has announced plans to deploy us national guard units on the islands. the official also watched american lawmakers to approve further security deals with ty pay when this comes with increasing chinese military activity around taiwan, which paging does not recognize as an independent country. the u. s. department of defense is now proactively planning cooperation between the u. s. national guard

and ty ones defense forces. we look forward to closer and deeper taiwan us cooperation on matters of regional security. however, despite the course on ty pay, the u. s. recently turned downs hi ones request to join a key regional trade organization called the in the pacific economic framework. meanwhile, wife china has conduct this largest military exercises in the area this year, launching 35 to judge into ty, ones as space. trying to foreign ministry has even threatened to use force against what it calls us back separatists on the island. recently the united states has frequently made moves on the taiwan issue saying one thing and doing another instigating support for taiwan independence forces which will push taiwan into a dangerous situation. professor benjamin charles us appears to be interested in a possible proxy war between china and taiwan. you would be surprised if the u. s.

appeal is promised to fully protect taiwan, given that the u. s. has already lost is credibility in defending is friends of many countries, especially when those friends have lost strategic value to the us. we're still sometimes to us, sees it in the interest to support a prolong proxy war 2. we can use proponent. so a proxy war is still possible, especially through the local help of south korea and japan and perhaps australia as well. 80 does have to agree to cut off rushes, largest bang from the belgium base international transaction network swift. the move intended to disconnect spar back from the global financial system as part of a 6 round of sanctions to pressure russia to end the conflicts in ukraine. but the bank says it was already prepared and the new measure will not have a significant effect. disconnecting from swift does not change the current situation and international settlements. domestic transactions do not depend on

swift and will be carried out by the bank and the standard mode. and previously shifted to a russian base system has no tentative to swift. most banks in the country have already switched over to that network according to the country's national central bank. rational authority states financial system is being prepared for the start of and there's already withstood the initial shock of the western sanctions. meanwhile, mastercard, c. o has said swift may even cease to exist in the next 5 years. the older the company later it attempted to clarify his comments. to say that he believed to the network would not operate in his current form in the future. that was where the south asian country of bangladesh is. that is considering adopting a new payment method to save money. invest image fast. i believe the world has changed too much for swift to remain the predominant platform for international transactions. i've never seen in my career which has been long and extensive in finance. i've never seen sanctions that were successful. and i think that these

were well telegraphed in advance. i think it's more of a public relations gimmick to have these and an actual impact that it's going to have. i think the world has changed pretty drastically. we're not looking at a situation that was in the 1960 seventy's eighty's or ninety's. this is a new new euro and you know, in crypto came around, you see that people are able to transfer things fairly quickly and a lot more efficiently and cheaply. and i think that that is a big part of the system. i think, i think that alternative payment systems have been set up in russia is not isolated by itself in a bubble. when people don't realize there are several countries that are using a different way to transact. and the u. s. dollar. a gemini might have seen, might be over in about 5 years because india, china, iran, brazil, u e, and saudi arabia, a couple other middle eastern countries and asian countries are in for using

different types of alternative payment systems that are transacting oil, the petro dollar, which is now no longer the petro dollar, because oil has been trading in b, g, the chinese currency. so i think that the landscape in the financial markets has changed, and it's evolving like everything else is, ah, scientists have discovered a decade. so the leak of potent methane from algeria is longest gas field, a field europe has been banking on to make up for it. so fall as it strives to move away from dependence on russia. with the working on legislation aid that curbing such methane emissions from fossil fuel with the leak severely complicates its climate goals. according to new satellite research, the leak has been affecting algeria global warming impacts finale food decades. the country already has the 3rd highest, meet the intensity of production among global oil and gas suppliers. last year, 12 percent of the used gas came from algeria, with 2 thirds of spain and portugal. annual input was coming from the country.

ma'am all russia accounted for 45 percent of you gas and no way for 20 percent. charlotte hands than a lawyer with clients can client earth who is closely monitoring the unicode creations that the e. u. has a vital opportunity to change is upcoming me thing legislation. at the moment there is little incentive for companies or governments of gas exporting countries to clean up their domestic industry through its upcoming methane legislation. the e u has a vital opportunity to change this by requiring that methane which is currently leaked as instead captured and used. this would help dismantle the argument for new gas extraction as well as the enormous damage that methane leaks are causing to our climate. but it's not close to independent journalists, charlie boyle. les, thanks for joining is on the program. actually, how do you expect for us those into you members to react to this methane emission? expose a well start by saying it's not much of a surprise if you go back only to last year towards the end of last year. we have

the big climate conference. so i'm sort of the time that i thought it was pretty much all words and no action. we really, i'm from a broken record. i really need to start coming up with a long term plan as to how you are being union. are you taking the deal with renewables because obviously they've got the cost implication. if you just take united kingdom and as an example, gas, natural gas alone is going to multiple times. and then we got renewables, which we haven't investors anything loc as much. we should. we should have done, we did a massive use our supplies from russia. there's a culture reading crisis as well. so i don't think we can really afford to, to go to, to green at the moment because this is a long term plan. like, as i said before, so i don't think much reaction to it it's, it's another sign by some right. how much, how did you think it makes sense for the you to put pressure on now, jerry,

over this, what is the, you know, is trying to cut reliance on russian fossil fuels? you know, i think it's going to be very difficult. i'm just looking for 6 months from now, the spike in energy as a whole, sort of come down a little bit what, but the current situation with regard to russia and so switch from, from russia to some of the other countries. what's not going to do heading into the fall, the winter in europe. so that's the real danger point to the moment. you'll find that the petitions you're saying in front of the camera that we need to switch to renewables to cloud down. all these breaking up the rules regarding targets, but behind the scenes they're going to be saying, we need to, we need to make sure that gets to the winter. and especially in the what it's like here. probably some of the people call for their energy bills even now even with the price. so the number one can.
