hands the west appetite for sanctions on this edition of the program, we discuss how all these issues are changing the structure of the global economy. ah, a walk amongst the ruins of what used to be a football stadium now obliterated by ukraine's grad rockets. intense fighting continues in little guns. republic, coffee visits are destroyed stadium in one of the cities of the fire frontiers forces. there were dozens of women here in this majority inter hospital when the shelling began to explore the maternity. all fill in done yet stroked by ukrainian forces where a baby born from a charlie was saved by a daughter who refused to leave the building under shelling. so the doctor sold the

scheme we have developed over the past 8 years in the state, me applying moments of danger, ready to cover the babies with our own bodies if needed. they'll stay in prime minister coals on china to lift damaging trade sanctions for 1st. beijing has some requirements of its own and joe biden finds himself in hot water for climate change. the economic situation in the us for the better as inflation rates in the country continue to skyrocket with july from the russian capital broadcasting to the world. this is our t international. i peter scott, and he's the top stories this. our intense fighting continues in little ganske republic. russia sets open a humanitarian car door in the key city of service done yet on wednesday, that would allow civilians to leave a chemical plant where ukrainian forces have dug in. there are reportedly up to

$2500.00 ukrainian military personnel currently, again in several genetic a quarter of which new guns for public sales are foreign mercenaries. meanwhile, the gun scores is the reports that ukraine's military has been showing civilian areas are eager as don of visits, the scene of one of the attacks. the situation for ukrainian troops here near the la garza people's republic is dia. this is something that all sides of the conflict seemed to agree on care of moscow and the international community. and the worse, the more hopeless it gets for the ukrainians here, the more aggressive and deadly they become against civilians against ordinary population of the la guns, continental people's republic. the city of the network itself as recently. and you would a shilling, it hasn't seen in years right now. i walk amongst the ruins of what used to be a football stadium now obliterated by ukraine's grad rockets and dead

bodies have only just yet been extracted from under the rubble. and the key of essentially is doing its best trying to convince the western audience that the need for and supplied weapons the need. foreign supplied artillery. but given caves, venge fullness given caves, desire and eagerness to take its anger out. an ordinary civilians, the longer the west will keep feeding this addiction of key of 2 foreign supplied weapons. the longer this agony will go on. amish done of reporting from the la ganske people's republic artsy. by monday, the next faced what local officials called the worth shelling by ukraine. since the conflict started in which 7 people died among the buildings, it was a maternity awful intensive care unit from which this image, which was widely circulated on social media, was allegedly taken. the child is understood to have been born prematurely and so

couldn't be disconnected from the ventilator. but medical personnel did remain with the baby, who pulled through an arty crew, made their way to the hospital. say, what happened during this could any monsoon? there were some babies in the intensive care unit, one of whom, in the rather serious condition, was placed on the ventilator. the rest also needed oxygen supply, so it was impossible to move them into the basement. so the doctor's followed the scheme we had developed over the past 8 years and stayed near by in moments of danger, ready to cover the babies with our own bodies if needed. i am on the roof of the maternity hospital that was shown by the ukrainian military. one of the rockets landed right here, making a huge hole in this roof. now this top floor is completely destroyed. there were dozens of women here in this missouri into hospital when the shilling began. this delivery room, in particular,

one woman was here and ready to give her birth. and then when i artillery struck, all the windows were immediately blown out. katy vertical dressed. there we were standing in a hallway waiting for a blood pressure to the measured. we heard the commotion and ran into the basement to switch around. it started in the morning and lasted until around noon. and then in the evening, stronger shelling began the walls, the windows were shaking. we ran to the basement and spend the night there. women were giving birth right in the basement. some were undergoing surgery. of course, it was scary like it was there were undergoing a sicilian section in the basement. there was no other option. when you move this were relying here on the floor and all of us pregnant were crying had a nervous breakdown. it was only one law. the mothers who were expected to give her birth hands or regular conditions had been forced to flee into the basement from the hercules cried. they continued for more than 2 hours, and fortunately,

no one was killed or injured. look, archer had your, i'm sure the location went calmly because the has learned how to behave in such a situation. so they managed to cope as always as what i want to say is that this is the place where children, when you lives, a born and mother doesn't give birth to her sons, to send them to war. all the cruelty that we have seen over 80 years, mary opened another citizen humane for the sole reason that the 21st century human life is not valued. this much certainty, hospice all now lies almost in ruins. very close, very near and dear to my heart. and so my camera man as well. this is where his son was born 4 years ago and my god daughter was born i here as well. so it's very painful to see what happened here. this building will now be forced to close to be closed until further notice, and they will evacuate a goal continued serving a women given birth at

a different location because it's just simply too dangerous. here. very we discussed the situation with journalist crystal near the founder of news outlets. dumbass insider who is working in don. yes. and she gave us an insight into her experiences. right now it's really hard. ah, we were in high danger with colleagues on the 4th of june, and we were under you, chilling in petrosky district of done yet. i've lost my car. so for the moment i cannot move her for the and do my job. like usual, we're trying to find a solution. but we were to under, usually for more than 5 hours. we stayed in the basement for 5 hours with civilians who were near the shoes. conceive mine in petoskey district, the shilling was during almost a whole day. and so was really striking, almost all the districts of done yes, from the most eastern ones to the most to where western once and from the north to

the south. or it was really, really an a nightmare. i have to say it was on the whole of the news like it was for us on the 4th of june in petrosky. and it was really horrible. really, really scary. over to australia now where the prime minister has called on beijing to lift sanctions to improve relations as he prefers for the 1st thoughts with the chinese minister in almost 3 years. but for beijing, things aren't quite that simple. china and australia have been attempting to reset their relationship. beijing is can bras, largest trading partner, but diplomatic relations have soured. the rift emerged in 2020, with dispute service. such issues as foreign interference, the coven 19 outbreak, and chinese investment. by 2021, china hit several australian industries with economic sanctions. now the newly

elected australian prime minister is asking for those measures to be lifted. it is china that has imposed sanctions on australia. they need to remove those sanctions in order to improve relations for beijing though things aren't that simple. it's listed 14 grievances that need to be addressed. gosh, i draw growth to improve china australia relations. there is no auto pilot mode. you should get a reset. requires concrete actions. the ice may have been slightly cracked with defense ministers from the countries hosting their 1st meeting in 3 years. but it's still rock solid. tensions are also high over the solomon islands. china says australia is promoting us lead competition in the region. australia says it's concerned about a possible chinese military base there. in response to longstanding issues, china has placed sanctions in the form of hefty tariffs on products such as wine and barley from australia. we will not allow any country to re benefits from doing

business with china well ground as the accuser and smear in china and on to my in china's cor interests based on ideology. it seems the pressure has all been a bit too much with the new government saying it's time to ease off. we would certainly like to see those sanctions in those tariffs lifted their damaging our economy. they're making life harder for some of our employers and workers here in australia. and so obviously we would like to see those measures lifted clearly. no matter who you are. sanctions aren't welcome. when your on the receiving end miss handling the tie. one situation on threatening chinese national unity will have a detrimental impact on beijing us relations. that is the latest warning from chinese officials to the u. s. counterparts following a face to face meeting in luxembourg. the tie, one question affects the political foundation of china us relations. it will have disruptive impacts if it's not appropriately handled,

any attempt to obstruct or undermine chinese national unity will be due to fail. well tensions between china and the u. s. have been escalade thing since president biden said, washington would defend taiwan if china were to launch an attack. on friday during the 1st, i have a face to face meeting between the u. s. sexual defense, lloyd austin and china defense minister way thing. the chinese official warned if anyone dares to help taiwan split from the country, beijing would not hesitate to respond militarily. meanwhile, beijing has declined to support western sanctions pushed by the u. s. against russia. with continued trade between the partners meeting the effects those sanctions were meant to deliver. this comes as china's national currency. the one has strengthened after the i, m. f, increased its holdings, making it the 3rd largest to holding in the official reserves. and that's behind the euro. and the dollar, the one i've seen growing use in cross board international payments between is trading partners reflecting the stature as

a top currency director. the geopolitical economy, research group ready could decide it says the use of the chinese currency will expand further in the future. china has been working this very interesting, very balanced approach that it's been taking as far as china is concerned. it can continue to expand the use of the ram in b for trade, for investment and for all sorts of other productive uses. so china is fine as far as the united states is concerned, in big trouble with the sanctions against russia. it's pushing china and russia close together. and so there is increasing evidence that the you on is also good, is, you know, basically the russian is increasingly becoming part of the chinese payment system. the ruin of course, has string them. so increasingly increasing russia, china trade, we essentially offset any damage that the rest is doing to the russian economy and, and at the same time, by putting sanctions and countries like russia,

the united states is preventing and of course, putting everybody else on notice that their money is no longer safe. the sanctions by further recognizing the dollar this time against the systemically important country like russia. it's only going to undermine the dollar more because, you know already for the last 2 decades, people have been wanting don't recognize the donor. you are going to want to mind in the dollar system, whether the united states seems to be, you know, has gone, i haven't done it anyway. so this is what you get for doing that. russia's reduced gas supplies to europe by the node stream one pipeline sizing. a delay in were formed by siemens energy. as a general company failed to deliver the repaired equipment on time due to the sanctions imposed by canada. it is currently impossible for seamans energy to deliver over whole gas turbines to the customer. against this background, we have informed the canadian and german governments and to working on

a viable solution. last week also were extended is anti russian sanctions targets in the countries, oil, gas, and chemical industries. it's hampered the return of key turbines which were manufactured in canada and need to be regular sent there for maintenance. the announcement has sent you a p and the gas prices spiking by double digits. now, europe has been increasingly vulnerable to gas supply destructions, as early as russia, cutoff customers in poland and bulgaria for declining to use a new ribbon rouble payment mechanism. amid the war in ukraine, the you is trying to quote, is just dependence on the russian fuel, which has accounted for 40 percent of the continents total gas impulse. we're now joined, live by kind of based political analyst alessandro brewed on under. welcome to our see international. thank you. so, siemens says it's currently working on a way out of this predicament. do you think that candidate will help solve this? got supply problem? well,

i think canada might allow for the turbines eventually to get back to germany, but will the turbines be then sent to russia? that's a very difficult question to answer and currently, now i don't think that that will happen because of the increasing sanctions. and i think this is one area where the west field, it can hurt russia because gas turbines, for this purpose a delicate, very delicate technology, only for companies in the world. siemens being one of them, the others are stung. and so the mitsubishi in japan are able to build these kind of turbines. and in fact, very interestingly, this problem is not necessarily related to the sanctions that we have been imposed following the, the special operation in ukraine already in 2018. the russians

knew that there was this problem and they started to develop their own turbines. but unfortunately, the tests forgot the name of the company, but the they tested a turbine to, to do this job, which is to essentially pump the the, the gas from the pipeline. they tried and they failed. it needs a lot of state investment or this is a kind of technology. it really requires a lot of so called r and d. and perhaps i'm sure that the russians are working on a solution. but because of this and it's well known, i think the west will make it difficult and you said that the sanctions were intended to hurts russia. oil and gas industries, obviously very important for the country,

but russian revenue has sort along with these gas prices. do you think that these sanctions from kind of the are achieving the goal or do you think we're going to see this effect in 6912 months time? well, for the time being, the certainly the kind of that has some kind of i don't, i don't want to say upper hand, but it does have the ability to put pressure in this regard because somehow these turbines ended up in canada for repair in, in quebec. i believe and they have to be returned. and this is where this is one of the few ways they can put some pressure. because of course, we've seen the other effects have been completely in russia favor. i believe russia has never had such revenues from gas because europe is increasing its import ahead of the fall where they feel they're going to be

losing as not having enough supply. so the, there's a surge of demand for russian gas. so and germany, i'm sure, would like for the, for the situation to be resolved because germany and italy, the 2 big, most largest industrial powers in europe are the ones that will suffer the most from this situation. but for the time being, i'm sure kind of will, will put pressure because that's the only thing that can, it can do. and the only thing that effective. meanwhile, it's possible that the russians will develop their own. the, as i mentioned, they have already been working on some kind of a substitute. and i, there's also been one of the effects of all the sanction has been to stimulate a rebirth of russian technology in the way that it was during the soviet union when

it was a leading force for science and technology of every kind. and after the collapse of the wall and the and the soviet union, russian aerospace tended to focus on a few oh model in the military, but abandoned, in developments in other areas. so this is an opportunity, i think, for russia to, to really rebuild it's, it's technology and gas turbines are a fundamental component of central, bruno canada based political analysts, to thank you very much for your time today on those kind of essentially the effects on those turbines thank you. all right. ah, yes, present, joe biden face is an online backlash up to saying he doesn't want to hear complaints about skyrockets in consumer prices or the us inflation rights hitting a 40 year high. i don't want to hear any more. it is la, reckless for changing people's law to that twitter was quicker, is gone,

with many users pointing out that the change bite in is taking credit for is not for the better. he's changing people's lives. that's a fact by turning america into a 3rd world country. i'll take the american people aren't buying this talking point for $5000.00. man who caused the problem angry. you don't like his problem. in addition to blaming those former president trump and republicans in congress for 40 year high inflation binding. again, trying to claim that soaring gas prices were russia balls and everything in my power to blood couldn't gas price. i just said she and very ukraine has got up a $1.74 gala because of nothing else but dad. however, users on twitter were quick to point out the hypocrisy with some comparing biden's current statements to his tweets while trump was in office. the president needs to

stop blaming others and do his job. it's hard to believe that this has to be said, but unlike this precedent, i'll do my job and take responsibility. i won't blame others, and i'll never forget the job isn't about me. it's about you. why this, this latest rant reminded me of a child putting his hands over his ears going now now i don't want to hear that the criticisms are valid. the facts are clear. he has not done everything much less anything to blunt. the price increases in the oil industry. in particular, the problem is joe by doesn't want to do anything to fix the problems that he's created because he would have to back up on the things that he has done by lation is, is the real issue. it's, it's an a 40 year high and growing as, as the numbers show, gas prices were spiking from the moment that joe biden took office. and now he's trying to find anybody and everybody to blame instead of the buck stops here. he's

the buck stops everywhere, but here president with sanctions imposed on russian energy and libya, shutting down its oil fields. western experts for the oil prices could reach on jan sense, $5.00 per barrel by the end of this year. joe biden, her promises the situation is under control as odds, he's candid moping explains libya's oil production is down to almost 0 and pretty soon the commodity could cost roughly a $150.00 per barrel. maybe even a 175. actual gas prices are also rising, the joe biden assures us we should not panic, why he has a plan. amid all this turmoil biden has decided to blame oil companies, he says they aren't drilling enough. exxon made more money than god this year. and by the way, nothing's changed and they're not buy one. they want to say about all companies to talk about how we have. they have 9000 permits to drill. they're not drilling.

why don't they drill so much for green energy, right? i guess it shows things are bad enough. the u. s. president has decided to stop worrying about the solar panels and start pumping oil out of the ground. but it also shows that joe biden doesn't really understand the industry when the white house started calling around in a panic. they thought shale oil production could grow sharply in the near term. like in a matter of months or quarters. they were shocked to learn that that's like asking for blood from a stone. it's almost impossible. the oil markets and prices are a global issue, and though joe biden won't admit it publicly, he is clearly trying to build some kind of international united effort. you'll recall how the saudis rejected him back in february. they have continued to rebuff him. the crown prince will not return jo biden's calls. so now the president of the united states is getting on a plane and heading for re awd all while pretending the purpose of the trip is not

energy markets. it may be some of the saudis don't relate to anything having to do with an it happens to be a larger media taking place in saudi arabia. that's the reason i'm going, and it has to do with national security for them or israelis. i have a program anyway, it has to do a much larger issue than having to do with the address. and if perhaps oil does become a topic of conversation, the president of the united states will not be begging the white house press. secretary assures us that just won't be a fair description to view engagement with saudi arabia on energy security as asking for a misunderstanding of both the complexity of that issue and our multifaceted discussions with the saudis, venezuela, iran, and other countries. the united states has been trying to crush now need to supply oil to the united states. along with europe, the french president mc crohn decided to not leave his people out in the cold. he went ahead and bought russian liquefied natural gas grain expressed frustration.

the simple answer is, of course, this is not a way we consider how our allies should behave themselves. those are actions that contradict the words and provide a whole different context on the cause of the french president, a manual micron. the biden white house is reassuring us that everything is under control, that they have a plan. however, if you look at the rising prices, the international markets and the reactions to us leaders, it certainly doesn't look that way. the biden whitehouse says that they have a plan. however, if this is a plan, it's a pretty sloppy one. caleb martin are to new york. i spoke to may day on the subject. and as the war in ukraine grinds on, nato's capacity is being called into question, with a blog sending large amounts of weapons to give some starting to us just how long they can keep it up or to contribute to rachel moss and explains. is some conflict in ukraine inadvertently disposing nato's vulnerabilities. mathematically,

if you add up the known fire are of all the remember countries the light should theoretically be able to talk any foe in director conflict. but there ukrainian venture suggests that the reality could be a lot messier. beer in union chief diplomat, joseph burrell said that if a similar conflict to the one in ukraine broke out any you, it's member states would only have enough ammunition for 2 weeks. meanwhile, washington center for strategic and international studies asked in april whether america supply of jollin missiles for ukraine would run out before rush around of the tanks. according to the white house factsheet, the united states has provided 2000 stingers to the ukrainians. the united states has sent about a quarter of its inventory to ukraine. the bottom line is that the russians are not going to run out of armored vehicles anytime soon. forbes has also pointed out, the ukraine's demand for american sticker angeles missiles is outstripping their

production. nato might think it has a great strategy for direct confrontation with russia. but poor logistics can ruin everything. production of weapons can take years to ramp up. western experts say, and weapons stockpiles are just sitting around, waiting for a full year war to break out. they also point out that security of rushes, air defense systems with post a major threat to nato pilots in the head match up. meanwhile, member countries can't even agree on economy road map for ukraine. france and germany seem to be increasingly angling for an exit route for nations on the eastern flank are pushing for more fighting. you, as president joe biden said that the united states and its allies will defend every inch of territory of needle countries with the full force of our collective power. and as i made crystal clear, the united states and our allies will defend every inch of territory. that is nato

territory for the full force of ha, ha, ha ha. singly clara, ukrainians are fighting back with pure courage. but the next few days, weeks and months will be hard on them. but just how much of that is bluster. let's just hope that no one ever has to find out. ah, the mexican president has criticized nato's policy towards ukrainian conflict. the comments come just days after you refuse to attend the summits for the americas up to host the u. s. failed to invite 3 fellow latin american countries. i'll supply the weapons and you supply the dead. it's immoral. how easy it is to say here, i'll send you this much money for weapons. couldn't the war in the ukraine have been avoided? of course have could make several said it would not send arms to ukraine and refuse to sign up to sanctions against russia. the mexican president has advocated the need for dialogue as a way out of the ongoing conflict between the 2 countries. meanwhile,

the ukraine house called on western countries to supply more weapons amid fish that needs the supplies may soon stop. mexico has become the lead in latin american challenge to us hedge him and after washington executed cuba, venezuela, in nicaragua, all 3 the subjects of us sanctions from the summits for the americans. historically, the u. s. has been the south american top trading partner, but it's now facing a new challenge from china. we spoke with a coordinator with the cuba unbending wayllace for darcy committee, who thinks that lots in america now tries to show the opposition to the u. s. s. had germany, i believe is more than just cuba, venezuela, and you can weather posing problems for us at germany. even though a good number of the nations of latin america attended the summit of exclusion of biden's. they still announced and declared in the summer they were not happy with

what was taken place. and it's a warning. it's a warning from argentina, from other leaders who said, you cannot continue this. the fact that the u. s. was hosting the summit of the americas did not give it the right to decide who belongs mexico. with love is over, though it is saying, now we speak as a latin american nation as a latin american nation. on behalf of all of latin america and the caribbean, and why locus over as the most significant figure refused to attend the summit of the americas. that will probably have some repercussion, but i think was happening in latin america. and even in the rest of the 3rd world in the country, they're saying we don't want to be bullied anymore. and we will act in concert with each other to coordinate more together economically, politically and reject us had gemini.
