ah, a u. s. president joe biden blames vladimir putin for the highest inflation in the us in more than 4 decades. while us senators stages the, by the demonstration itself, we can't deal with the crisis who went out and close the door with just one group later. and our lives have been so different. 19 civilians die and dozens of wounded in don't boss the latest ukranian army selling us according to local forces. trying to claim to us all packaged to tie one undermines piece in the region and threatened all out war. if the island declares independent with

july from our headquarters here in the russian capital, you're watching the international. i p to scott and these, the top stories this hour with you as a consumer inflation hits in its highest level in more than 4 decades. a point 6 percent increase, president biden has once again claim the russian president vladimir putin for surgeon, energy and food cost. this rock in america, days of flesh report, confirm what america's already no. food is price. i consider america hard. gas prices at the pump. energy in food prices cover, half of the monthly price increases since may, my administrator going to continue everything we can to lower the prices, the american people. and the congress has to act and they have been of late abundance comments come despite us inflation rising sharply since the turn began back in january 2021. sewing from an average of 1.4 percent in december,

2020 to 7 percent in december 2021. that's 2 months before the war and ukraine begun, and despite biden's housing, his offices efforts to deal with a problem. us senator john kennedy says it looks like the administration is simply given up. it's destroying the american dream and, and we, we have to address it, which to make like a bad administration has just given up. well biden's comments. com liquefied natural gas prices also skyrockets. in the e u that stuff an explosion at the next port terminal in texas, which had been sending fuel to europe. both prices for the fuel in the u. s. have since gone down is more of the l n. g is now expected to be used domestically instead of being sent abroad. washington said it would help europe reduce its dependence on brushing gas import to take the fund shut down will profit. so it's about 4 by 8 percent, which could further threaten us energy security. most of the fuel from that samuel had been shipped to the u. r. u. s. correspondent,

kill him up and picks up the story. well, it was in freeport, texas. residents are 3 very loud bangs. and essentially what they were hearing was a liquefied natural gas terminal exploding. now this explosion has been widely decried as an indicator of the possible threats of public health fumes, but it's also going to have a pretty big impact on the international market. so we've heard analysis about the ability of the united states, the import and export natural gas about the crisis and the rising costs. here's some of what we've heard in the aftermath of this dramatic explosion in texas. this is going to take supply out of the market when it's badly needed. we were already moving into a very precarious set of market dynamics. this is going to tide and prompts supply, particularly in the atlantic. as a majority of the cargoes have been destined for europe. so it's important to note that as a result of this explosion, the l. n g hub in freeport,

texas is going to be shut down for 3 weeks, 3 weeks. it will not be operating in the aftermath of this rather large explosion. in addition to that 20 percent of all us natural gas sports are going to be affected by the explosion that took place and the shutting down of the hub. in addition to that, it's also important to point out that 75 percent of us natural gas exports have been going through europe. now, there has been some relieves for domestic natural gas perfect purchasers in the united states. because the fact that biden instituted some action and basically require domestic producers to get priority to the u. s. market before exporting that resulted in price is going down in the united states. but it had a negative effect on the international market and basically forced the european markets to pick up the birds. and now we have a situation where we have countries and you saying they want to completely go off of russian gap that i completely shut down. russian gas,

but now as the aftermath of this explosion is showing their confidence in american markets and the ability of the states to supply gas to europe is a little bit shaken. europe is seeing a rise in its natural gas prices. and at this point, the reality of europe to import natural gas from the united states is at this point in a little bit of question. now there's explosion, and the impact of having on the global market seems to fly in the face of a lot of what joe biden and other us readers have said over the past few months, reassuring everyone that america has enough gas to supply the world. when moving forward, this band, understanding that many of our european allies and partners may not be in a position to join us. the united states produces far more oil domestically than all of europe. can all the european countries combined? in fact, we're a net export of energy so we can take this step when others cannot. but we're

working closely with europe and our partners to develop a long term strategy to reduce their dependence on russian energy as well. first of all, we are looking at oppertunity is to make up for lost cash l n g from russia were on their way of trying to see what we can do to do that. do dealing with our friends around the world as well. we think we can make up a significant portion of it. now if the situation is really as dark as some of the pessimistic forecasts we're currently seeing from analysts, then this will be a major blow to the ability of europe to import natural gas from the united states . people look at what was done by finland and that recent 10 year contract that they signed in order to win off of russian gas and import american gas the next 10 years. we were wondering if that decision made by finland was a bit to

a stick. and while incense fights and continues on the front lines of the don bus region done yet is going to be guns. officials accused ukrainian army of showing residential areas of cities across the republics. 19 civilians died and 23 have been wounded as a result of the late shelling of a number of the nist under done according to local forces from both forces. claim that here is using western made heavy weapons in the we spoke to some local to witness the shell. let me see what they can. you know. i was sitting near the window, the balcony door was the jar. there was a bank on the wall and part of the balcony. a lot. just one room was damaged. you haven't entered. i've heard mine exclusion today, but continue shooting and i was here look, you know, but even though they were shooting all day, but i did a project, tyler flew into the room and then flew out into the bedroom. we went out and close

the door, and in that moment that was an explosion. i just want me to play and all alive was, would have been so different than just one minute. and that's for all child. yes. oh, baby, just 3 years. so sure. meanwhile, the done yes, port city of motor you for which was recently taken by russian and allied forces reconstruction is underway. we spoke to russian emergency services personnel who are currently working in the city this year, but it's a beautiful, vulnerable. we started work in the city immediately after the end of the hostility level quoted as russian and donetta emergency services began to perform their duties of the city gradually began to come back to light a little notice. but we also have a large group of sappers who diffuse mind, buildings, ukrainian troops, mind everything here as they were, retreated a little was then you're calling. this is a school building. it is almost completely destroying us for a group of ukrainian military. we're here store, we found equipment, personal belongings, weapons and a case from a night vision device issue. on sunday ortiz documentary on the siege of murray for

will be released any which witnesses to the sea chest of their hurrying experiences for his acquit teaser. ah, you with a no deductible plan, you probably charlotte for school did them up so you started the one up we'll send you a new job much anyways at all. no question. get with him was in the national with you. he passed id like to see you soon. you can pretty witness. i feel both ways for the you with

president followed him. is there, lensky has praised london's assistance to care if joined ukrainian war. as his british defense, secretary ben wallace arrived in the capital to discuss the urgent needs of ukraine's troops during his trip. zalinski once again emphasized the importance of the west supply and heavy weapons. krinski school year old boy, sammy saab, ukrainian troops are doing everything they can using the artillery. they have to stop the occupiers, as well as much as the heavy weapons and modern artillery and all that me about and continue to ask our partners to provide to allow them to separate. i have met the machine secretary for a while. i remember we discussed how this rushing and how to stop and now going to retention events and what supplies are needed for our arm ration the british true leadership event matter and all. but in britain confirmed the donation of long range multiple rocket systems. that's in addition to thousands of on to talk me 1000 vehicles on the defense systems that have ukraine's military intelligence

recently that the country's troops have almost run out of the munition and now rely on western realize there was some busted it to the u. k. andre kellen says that putting money on arms in ukraine will only prolong the conflicts. of course, national one gave it makes ukraine and so just continue fights. and it is a senior, i should say because, but it is providing money, not much money. it is, it is providing weapons in forces, cottages, in the army, to continue funding, and no single knowledge about or seagly about the future or few korea. what's going to happen after that? it's an interesting question. whether you will be interested after one in the building you're putting in considering voting can run it to sort of this in key if that brought to me that in the future in building up the country and handling

countries. economy once again in doing something. so i'm afraid the interest will be lost in some, some. so do live if there will be a letter to continue to make such a project as an international to start out a few international state. and it will be a no more capabilities. and no more or should be legit to do that then most will probably be alyssa interest at the moment. i think that they are preventing any kind of war and safety for negotiation before they will. they are continuing to to push ukraine in these along the same way to continue waiting, not to think about the future. and as i have said, the more military aid ukraine receives from the west, the more world defense giants continue to earn. here you can see how the share

prices of some defense joins have risen as invested, anticipate rising profits, us contractor ero vironment is expected to be one of the biggest beneficiaries along with european companies rhyme. it's all and the nato who shares have risen by 120 and 67 percent, respectively. scott ritter for marine corps interest officer, believes that western weapons supplies won't change the outcome of the conflict. the, the, the situation is the period of the best the supply of western arms to do is reduce the rate of deterioration. it will never reverse the outcome of no amount of web western weaponry will enable ukraine to gain the upper hand. all it will do is length in the conflict and more importantly, from the western perspective, kill more russians because that's all this is about. we heard that from void austin, the american secretary said, you said that the goal here is to make russia pay a cost to inflict aim on russia. that means dead russians. and so that's what the

west is trying to accomplish here. and it's very cynical because it's not just russians that are dying, as we said, for every one russian that goes down, you know, maybe 20 ukrainians are going down. so it's about dead ukrainians as well. and maybe it's time ukraine wakes up and understands that the west is seeking to extend this conflict that to help you frame, but to her russia that's drawing you frame in the process. meanwhile, a recent intelligence report by both kids and western officials, reveals that ukrainian troops are facing significant losses, which is raise the question as to why ukraine's commanders are still seemingly reluctant to negotiate. with the russian side. the intelligence officials say that russia's military maintains the upper hand with 40 times more ammunition and 20 times more artillery than ukrainian forces. more than $5600.00 ukrainian troops are said to be prisoners of war. nearly half of them having surrendered at the upstart steel factory. kiev is also believe to be facing a growing desertion problem. ukraine's top officials,

though still strongly oppose any possibility of surrender. strawbridge says the war is becoming unsustainable for ukraine. been se started fighting, you know, the wars if you have ratios of one to 1.21 to 1.3 casualties and you can grow that out. but eventually you're going to get a culminating point where the, the differential just goes up naturally. and we're at that point right now it's, it's no longer for everyone. russian, there's 3 clean casualties. it's more like for everyone, russian, there's 20 ukraine casualties. and as the situation to period further on the front, this ratio is just going to in your, to spin out troll until it's unsustainable by the maintenance. the question is, how much pain is ukraine able to absorb? you know, their, their ministry of defense said they have 700000 men under arms right now. ok. so what percentage of that are they willing to sacrifice before it becomes obvious that not only can they not win this conflict,

but the longer they continue to resist, the larger the humanity that the cost in human lives will be a territorial loss as well. versus foreign minister says that europe is making all the wrong news when it comes to negotiations with moscow. we probably of and as always we are open to dialogue, but it takes 2 to tango and at the moment on the power western partners are engaged in break dancing by themselves. so gay, lover of statement comes after, the polish president slammed the leaders of france and germany over their phone calls with the med, putin as asked. he's elliot. katrinka explains in response to how the polish president blamed the german and the french leadership for dealing with the the russian government. foreign minister surgery, la rob, accused him of a growing historical ignorance and also pointed at poland. o moves

against ukraine's sovereignty, my government image. so you're through, it's perhaps they should be advised to study history. so their own history and those events that underlie polish history. so far, we see that we're behind the talk loudly in admissibility for any dialogue with russia moisture could wholly colleagues are beginning to actively assimilate ukrainian territory issue. and then le decisions vice president lensky and the cranky, governmental level, on the special rights. all the polls ladies who are essentially being made equal to the ukrainians in everything except the rights to vote russell, just to give you some background a little earlier this week, the polish leader went as far as drawing parallels between vladimir putin and adult hitler. and also pretty much coal on the entire international community to forget any ideas of trying to make contact with the russian officials up to parents. our guest them is the meal i am amazed at all these conversations the chancellor shows

in president micron are having with put in these conversations are useless. what are they doing? they legitimize the person responsible for the crimes committed by the russian army . that he is responsible for this much. he decided to send troops there. what if someone spoke like this to adolf hitler during world war 2? did anyone say that adolf hitler must say face keep that we should proceed. i such a way that it is not humiliating. for adolf hitler, so i have not heard such voices in response to my question about these latest comments by polish president duda, the russian foreign minister survey lab. rob reminded how the likes of germany and france and also other e countries were always in favor of leaving door open for talks with russia and stressed that moscow is always ready for talks no matter what the russian viewpoint is. that diplomacy should always have a chance. however, in the current circumstances, when all western leaders keep talking about is isolating russia,

this scenario doesn't seem very likely. the author and journalist thomas roper share his thoughts on the issue. poland is one of the real hawks in europe, which wants to escalate the situation and having in mind how poland is no trying. well, maybe you can call it next parts of ukraine. when you treat you with poland has an interest in escalating the situation. when i put all this together, i have the feeling that russia doesn't really take europe, european union, and the states for serious anymore. they are really just fulfilling commands from, from the u. s. and from my feeling, just russia, right, know, understands and says quite openly. when there's something to discuss, we have to discuss with people who make the decisions and they're not in brussels. they're watching me while it's suspected slip open, a mainstream news article has shown a local residents. if you go in city of kirk of with a large tattoo of

a swastika on his arm, we did ask voices to comment on that, but we still not received a response. of course, we'll bring it to you as and when we get it, the photo appears to undermine some western denials of fall, right? that's if it's in ukraine and some social media uses are now questioning how big the issue of nationalists in the country is. do you think western media would have learned to come through every picture from ukraine? they consider posting to make sure there isn't any swastikas or other nazi symbolism big swastika tattooed on his arm? yup. for sure. there are no not sees in ukraine. how hard can it be to take a picture of a random person and not have them with a swastika tattoo? i was 4 times in the bus and i have seen all this myself. i was the headquarters of the as of a battalion. there is no doubt that this the country is ruled by people with really not see ideology. and this is also in the command of the of the armed forces. the western media doesn't want to see it when you report. this is fake news, but i've been there seen it. so we have,

we have to ask western media why they denied that, but, but it's obvious. in other news, china's defense minister has slammed his american counterparts. falling use of the latest us arms package for taiwan. warning of possible conflicts over the island, the beijing claims its own. if anyone dares to split taiwan from china, the chinese military has no choice but to fight at all costs and take all necessary measures to crush any attempt by ty when the separatists to split time on the mother. the chinese military will resolutely safeguard national security and territorial integrity. the chinese defense minister has also laid out a list of conditions. the u. s. must meet for easing tensions, including not interfering in china's internal affairs or harming china is interests, china and taiwan. spit doing a civil war back in 1949, and the country has been following the one china policy since then. the latest arms package sees the u. s. provides parts for taiwanese naval ships,

an estimated cost of $120000000.00. washington's been known as ty, ones, and main allies in his confrontation with china for some time. earlier we spoke to nelson wong, vice chairman of the shanghai center for international studies and val die club experts. who says that the u. s. is using taiwan as his trump card against china. i think the u. s. government has always been using the tie one issue as it's one of the measures to contain china in its relations, which china, taiwan, the pie, one card is always in their hands to play with from time to time. and i think this is, they believe this is the time to create trouble for china to, to mess around with the internal affairs of china. so it's nothing new, it's nothing new to china. but if they play it too hard, i think the chinese government will take some actions and in terms of any

upcoming threat to separate to taiwan from the motherland. and then the chinese government is going to take actions and announcement has already been made. what china has been expressing itself quite clearly over the years over the decades is that this is an internal affairs of china. and taiwan issue is a left over issue from china's civil war way back when and the international committee has all recognized the one china policy, even including the united states government. it has also recognized the one china policy. so based on this understanding, china, it's government has always been trying to seek a national re unification through peaceful poll.

you know, the news algeria is frozen foreign trade in products and services with spain estimate and escalating disputes over the status of western sahara. those days announcements came a day after the african nations suspended a 20 year old friendship treaty with spain, which committed the countries to jointly control the mutual flow of migrants use code of algeria to reverse that decision with brussels urging dialogue to resolve the dispute. meanwhile, the spanish foreign minister has called for mutual respect between all countries in the region and equality of states, not interference in internal affairs. mutual respect, the mutual benefit for our 2 countries. it is under these premises that we want to have the best relationship as most of that without area, like we have with the rest of our name. it was pain with the former colonial power in western sahara until the area was annexed by morocco back in 1975. since then,

algeria, a neighboring morocco, had tens discussions of the status of the region, the diplomatic standoff continued until 91. when the 2 countries reached an agreement for a referendum to be held and the implementation of a un backed buffer zone. since that agreement, morocco has controlled the majority of western sahara and spain box marco's autonomy planned for the region, while jerry opposes it and says, the region should be completely independent and can tower a, an official for a western sahara independence movement as a key morocco of plate replacing spain as the colonial power in the region saying has taken a position, siding completely with the aggression stand of the colonial power. and everybody will expect spain to be an almost broker, to have the solution the coast to spain in then the response of the entire tragedy

model call is house. and definitely motto has situated on europe the and colonial living. and they behave in a classic colonial power. they helped him to do it. and sorta since 975, it was happening going on for many years between this people defending the free and their aggression of moral. and they all that had some additional support to benefit ation. movement during the entire is part of the start of the variation enough they ought to take in this position because of their, their own study. jerry, a fall, the software relation movement. and just before we go, angry crowds have taken to the streets of los angeles to protest against the u. s. decisions have been a tree of countries from the summits of the americas. the summit ended on friday with cuba, venezuela, nicaragua, not invited, a president,

biden's behest local journalist fiorella isabel was at the scene here to protest the exclusion of nicaragua, cuba and venezuela. among other things, the lack of attention paid to the economy and the economic situation in the country right now. the a missing baby formula student that crisis at the health care crisis, climate change prices and all sorts of issues that people are bringing up the civically and now lay where the homelessness ray is absolutely catastrophic. and it's one of the highest in the entire country. this, i protest marks the end of the people summit, which was of course, a opposition event to the joe biden democracy. i'm it focusing on people's issues, which is why they called it the people. so i'm, and again, this is the 1st time where our presidents have addressed the people. i may be a proud in online video web cor, i'm especially right now of course,

where the mainstream media is so focused on january 6 coverage of insurrections. when of course, they have been ignoring the attention paid by these activists organizers move made social movements on the imperialist agenda of the united states. that has, of course, installed to redeem changes and continues to provide billions of dollars to neo nazi faction in ukraine. rep for now. what are you doing this weekend? i hope you're having a good one. hon peter scott, calling me back again in 30 minutes time. do stay tuned from all grade program. so an auction ah ah
