of r. c. o. bushes accused ukraine of deliberately targeting civilians amid intensive shelling of done yet, lou ganske cities. he has not yet commented on those obligations. ortiz, rama costa visits hospitals, where many of the injured are receiving treatment and will bring you that just a little bit later in the program. ukraine appears to be sending mixed messages about his mercy targets after the countries top general states. if that's a big linking, the russian mainland to crimea could be targeted. that's something that contradicts the ukrainian presidents claims that keith is not going to attack russian territory . the courage street bridge is target number one for the ukranian armed forces. this is no secret of their military or our military or their civilians or ours. when you have fired at russian territories across the border foot, shalley. ne. no, we are not interested in selling civilities. we are not terrorists who shall

civilian neighborhoods in the car? the coach, straits bridge, which the ukrainian general was referring to is also known as the crimean bridge. it was built after crimea reunification with russia back in 2014. the 900 kilometer long construction is the main artery between the russian mainland and the peninsula . and it's the longest bridge in the country as well as in europe. we discussed the general's comments with former cia analysts, john curiosity, who believes that such conflicting messages are down to a fractional ice action plan. one of the reasons, at least why this ukrainian general made the comment about the bridge publicly, was for propaganda value to, to worry russian troops in the area to make them think that this terrible attack is going to come. i think the lensky is telling the ukrainian people what he thinks they want to hear. i don't think that his, his messaging is necessarily meant for the russians. it's meant for the ukrainians . and if it's going to make the ukrainians feel better for him to say that he
1:06 am
wouldn't attack russian territory because it would be bad for the ukrainians to be able to, to or to have to withstand or a russian response. i think that's why he's doing it's funny. we're hearing completely different things from the ukrainians. we're also hearing completely different things from many of the leaders of the nato countries. i think that there's not a whole lot of coordination that is taking place. on the one hand, there are political statements. on the other hand, there's military planning, and sometimes the to just don't go together. the u. s. has approved a new package of military aid for ukraine with $1000000000.00 bringing its total donations to key f since to stop the conflict $6600000000.00. he has demands for support are changing. however, with asking now for more powerful rocket systems, which the u. s. does say it is ready to send earlier my colleague, you know,
1:07 am
neil discuss the recent decisions to provide new packages of military to ukraine with ortiz shot davinsky decision by the u. s. defense secretary to announce further funding for ukraine ad that was the announcement that there would be $1000000000.00 of further funding security assistance for ukraine. and this is got a whole list of new weaponry that is going to be wing its way over there. that includes guided m r s ammunitions. how it says as some 36000, a 155 millimeter ammunitions. also harpoon coastal defense systems, thermal cameras, a massive man that's been announced just from the us. also getting announcements on wednesday from germany back in new weapons that they're going to be sending over. and this includes 3 multi launch rocket systems. now the u. s. secretary defense saying that literally, within the next few weeks, ukraine is going to have this capability of firing long range missiles. and what
1:08 am
we've really got a sense of today is nato allies really doubling down on their support. the ukraine when it comes to weaponry. when cube has been insisting has in it that it needs more and more weapons from the west. how's that going down? know what's really interesting as we have heard over the last few days. this figure being bandied around that ukraine isn't getting 10 percent to what's been promised . and that's the question that has been put over and over to officials with nato allies across the globe. that in fact, our question was put to the defense secretary from the u. s. to day, and he respond that 1st of all by saying who has said that at the response from the person who asked the question said it's the am under deputy secretary defense in ukraine. and he said, well look, i've spoken and been with his boss all day, that's not what's come across. and so i think he should go and check back his figures and work out how he's essentially come to that. so this idea that perhaps these figures that we're hearing aren't possibly correct,
1:09 am
although the secretary of defense for us did been gone to admit that these are evolving figures on a constant basis. but that question keep being asked our nato allies doing enough to defend, to help you crane. and it really does seem to be a question because now, irritating officials are the ukrainians correct. to complain, said nato allies are not serious enough about providing them the weapons. they say they need. i think the nato allies, individual nato allies have been extremely responsive in recent months. the list that they gave us early on in the conflict looks very different from the lists that we're talking about. now. we were heavily focused in the beginning on air defense. we're talking about a heavy rocket artillery. we have shifted the conversation. we've talked about
1:10 am
armored vehicles, there are claims that ukrainian soldiers have been getting advanced western weaponry faster than they can learn how to use it. quite incredibly, what do we know about that? well, that's why we know at the start of this conflict that there was the sense that ukraine, pap should only be sent soviet era weaponry from eastern european countries. and those eastern european countries could have new weaponry. basically because they're saying that the ukrainian soldiers wouldn't know how to use the more defensive weston a technology at what we did here again today in the past conference is that there's been more training that's been taking place. not just obviously the training we know that's been happening since 2014, but specifically in the last few weeks to ensure that ukrainian so just can use this weaponry. but the reality is that training doesn't always lead to quite results. for example, there was a report highlighted just a few days ago that suggested that javelin missiles that was sent to ukraine went without a customer tech support number, so to speak. when they arrived, there was
1:11 am
a problem with the technology at the soldiers on the ground had no idea what to do with it and had no to turn round to, to ask, what do we do we have, we're not sure. and there were some that have criticized this thing. well, if you're going to supply this kind of weaponry to ukraine, you must also then be able to supply that tech support off to it's. and if you're not, then really what's the goal in a bit to check staggering inflation. the u. s. central bank is raised is key interest rate mark in the biggest one time increase in decades. the federal reserve raise the rates by 3 quarters of a percentage points pushing its benchmark rates. a range of 1.5 to 1.75 percent dyke, which will affect consumer business loans is the 3rd since march. and the biggest in the last 3 decades professor of economics, jack ross, thomas questions, a heights effectiveness suggesting that the worst is yet to come. they feel they've um, almost lost control of inflation. and the markets and investors have been pushing
1:12 am
the fed and the government to get more aggressive to raise rates. and that's what's really behind all this. but you know, it's interesting. i listen to jerome this morning, you know, and the chair to say, chair and he indicated that, wow, this is really about doing something about demand driven inflation and you ask, is the fed really can't do anything about supply? well, the problem is supply problem is the commodities inflation that's going on now, man has to do with the war in the sanctions. also has to do with supply shames that are still, you know, in trouble after cove. it has to do with supply chain issues with china shutting down because a cold for a while and it has to do with speculators. the other thing i thought was interesting, you know, we're jerome pile this morning was he indicated he thought all this would result in
1:13 am
a soft landing no recession in the u. s. and supposedly accordingly fed 18 months from now we're, we're going to have them to percent inflation when it's been rising in 8 to 9 percent. and we're only going to have 4 point one percent unemployment. and when it's only $3.00. now i don't know how he figures that the doubling the inflation is for interest rates as fast, are going to avoid a recession. there's no doubt there's going to be a recession in this country. just a question of how soon was separately the u. s. has extended away the 2 assets and energy related transactions with russian companies to take place until december, the 5th. and at the same day, the u intends to start enforcing an embargo on seaborne imports of russian oil ortiz. rachel blevins looked at whether the west initial approached moscow paid off . now, when it comes to the numerous things shows that the u. s. has imposed against russia,
1:14 am
there appear to be more questions than answers starts to feel the impact of their own measures. just months after washington announced unprecedented sanctions against moscow. well, the media is now admitted that the bio administration is concerned about the effect those measures are having at home rather than abroad from soaring gas prices and inflation to concerns over a global food crisis. the united states right now is really hurting, and that's just the beginning. in fact, even officials from the us treasury are now admitting that they're concerned about the over use of things and against russia. all of that comes as reports are saying that the u. s. government is even encouraging american companies to purchase russian for fertilizer in order to increase supplies overall. but actually the question of whether that would violate distinctions. the u. s. currently has in place. 2 the answers are not entirely clear here. the story that the sanctions are
1:15 am
causing the problem i think is deeply misleading. sometimes companies are confused about what's allowed and what's not. and we will try to clarify so that they're able to go forward. but we are also working proactively by trying to inform companies about what they are allowed to do. now, as for the question of who is to blame for the current crisis here in the u. s. o, president biden has tried to put the blame on everyone from russia to republicans in congress to even former president trump, essentially everyone other than himself, even as biden's own approval rating continues to remain your record low and moving on. no contracts worth over 24000000000 roubles or more than 400. $20000000.00 was one of the many sign to the opening day of the st. petersburg international economic forum, which one the world's leading economic events. and he's now entering his 2nd day in russia's northern capital. let's take
1:16 am
a closer look at some of the highlights so far this year's events. lou with, well, speaking of this session, dedicated to how the economy is coping with western sanctions. the russian prime minister said it's tackling the situation well, even at the quote unquote chair for those with managed to weaken the effects of the sanctions, the economy steadily adapting to the new challenges. the macroeconomic stability is be maintained and all social programs are continuing. in general,
1:17 am
we can say that at this point, our economy is tackling the pressure of sanctions. w r t is elia pitch. ranko is out the forum and he spoke with sammy caught swanny, who's the head of the indian business alliance, about opportunities for asian companies to do more business with russia. the whole world is going invitation and there is someone has to be blamed for it. so definitely is not russia because they didn't bring this situation. so the western world and i make a broader tradition read that whole of africa is willing to go in crisis. it's often being said that by boy courting trade with russia, the western countries are only opening up new opportunities for asian powers and emerging asian markets. we missed the train, it was really big. i'll put you for a 9090. we're getting one more time chance to get the mystery. so definitely yes is
1:18 am
going to be a very, very big interest for all nation companies. and let me tell you why not, why not asian companies. you see the economy of india. we had occurred while biggest economic we in india, having a lot of wrong information about russia, one not is not enough vend the western media and the proponent of rest this not one country doing it. so i d, 's only for one russia, right? so if you put the light but dead, the whole of america, the whole of europe, if you take all the apartment, is there been working ready? raylynn when we lost the wall before we started? of course will continue bringing your the key updates on the st. petersburg economic forum as it progresses. ah, the israeli defense minister has proposed the formation of the us led coalition to
1:19 am
count iran, which would include a tel aviv and a number of our countries that comes with washington. still not committed to a new nuclear agreement with to run a deal that was cancelled by the previous u. s. administration which has left many countries in europe. frustrated. artie contributed rachel marston explains us president joe biden as a year and a half revive the iran nuclear deal. struck in 2015 with the european union us china, germany, france, russia, and the united kingdom. under the agreement, a foreign policy cornerstone of brock obama's presidency. when buying was vice president iran with curtail its uranium enrichment program and exchange for sanctions really and normalization of relations. former us president donald trump talk the deal like it was an unloved way. i'm a prem leading by the non cleanup duty. while washington continues to dither and iran continues to pursue with nuclear agenda in the absence of the deals viable european company era to enter the iranian market are growing pretty frustrated to
1:20 am
make matters worse, better gas is talking up. a new anti iranian coalition led by washington. we are seeing the threat space change in intensifying a variety of barriers. so we are working significantly in building the israeli defense forces and all security alms. alongside increasing our collaborations with the u. s. all most important ally and other countries in the region, washington is also back to pulling over iran. and it's role is world least man in europe, backyard teasing in iranian tanker near greece at the end of may, following a request from the u. s. justice system, the oil is to be transferred to the united states at the expense of that country. iran responded in a tit for tat, capturing the releasing of a great ship in the person gall this month. according to the quincy institute responsible state crush, us dithering on iran deal re entry is causing a risk with europeans. the washington think tank called the resolution passed the
1:21 am
international atomic energy agency last week defense or iran, nuclear enrichment activities, sponsored by the u. s. britain. germany and france, but opposed by china and russia. an illusion of unity between europe and america. by the way, to iran, reacted to the vote by removing the agencies, cameras. your sites. 27 cameras are being removed in a neuron, apart from an online and re tune monitoring system that we have over there. this is, of course, poses as he's a challenge to our ability to continue working there and to confirm the correctness of your application under cheap yet you cheap diplomat. joseph morales recently do ask for a restore deal suggested divergence of european and american interests over iran.
1:22 am
the possibility to strike a deal and return to iran nuclear deal is shrinking, but we still can do it with an extra effort. maybe you should consider the possibility that washington has it right where it was that is politically handcuffed and unable to enjoy the competitive advantage of a new trade relationship with iran, demarcus permission and about the war in ukraine that says russia is accused care of, of deliberately targeting civilians with cities in the done yet can look guns, repub dates coming under intense fire. this should and could not bring to keep any military advantages. the news is not on the line of conflict. there are no military objects where the shell shells fell through kind of military deliberately target suit suit in districts of infrastructure. hospitals more considers dental letters. ambassador's comments came after 1st fire and announced on monday with local authorities saying ukraine, 5 hundreds of missiles on shells of the city. 5 people were killed,
1:23 am
and more than 30 injured with the marketplace on maternity hospital. among the buildings. heads ortiz at roman casa visits hospital where many of those injured are being treated. we are right outside of the genetic central trauma center. this hospital is just one of many that had been treating thousands of patients that there were wounded by the ukrainian military, out of those thousands of patients. at least 200 were children. and. and now i'm going to go and talk to a couple of those kids that were injured by the ukrainian military. over the last couple of days ago, a shell hit a car near my home and the explosion shattered our windows. we went to hide in the bathroom, then a fire broke out. we tried to put it out, but we were unable to. so we grabbed a mattress, tossed it out of a window and jumped down onto it from our apartment on the 2nd floor. i spoke to
1:24 am
the chief surgeon here and it from a soldier sensor vadim, nobody and go. and he's been working here since said 2014 and personally helped of thousands of people with their boons caused by the ukrainian military. he sent it over the last 3 months. the shelling here internet only intensified was only really you louise, barbaric artillery attacks on our city have intensified, and we are used to attack near the frontline. but recently shells have been stored in the see the center. these shells can hit anyone just yesterday in 84 year old woman was wounded and brought to us earlier and 91 year old. that was also wounded is truly barbaric. this is where hundreds of ambulances arrived each single day, carrying many, many patients that have been wounded. why the artillery of the ukrainian military locals are saying that the latest shelling here is the internet. the intensity of
1:25 am
the shelling is unprecedented. and they're certainly hoping that this will end very soon. rum on cost for a party, don't ask people's republic. and while the u. s. now plans to send more military aids ukraine, united nations is calling for funding to prevent a devastating oil spill off the coast. yemen, you remember states have pledged around 3 quarters of the $80000000.00 needed to remove an estimated 1000000 barrels of crude from a decaying tank. a ship in the red sea of central oil spill in the area could cause an estimated $20000000000.00 in damage. it's, i think it was built nearly 50 years ago and subsequently converted into floating storage facility. but it hasn't been maintained properly since the gemini civil war looked at 80 years ago. i'm at most off a director of the agent center force. so he's on translation. leaves the middle east just isn't a priority for the west to develop service. and that's according to the charter nation's environmental rights,
1:26 am
became one of the fundamental flights of the human beings before a sample of some sort of real need. and it could be to treat these environmental catastrophic issue, especially in the back seat. but now we see a lot of w, especially on the west and you and unfortunately you multi rated by the dominic countries, especially us group crescent and friends. and for the middle east and the south country are not on there. they are just focusing on just a department that's near 5. they have folders, but it is this regarding any other away from the photos. and if you see also we have a problem in palestine. we have a problem and we have a problem in libya. we have a problem. any luck we have a problem. so now you and all of them made by the west. that's all for now. my name
1:27 am
is peter scott, and i'll be back again at the top of the hour with more news in the course of the latest deals and developments from the st. petersburg economic form. right? anaki international the l look forward to talking to you all. that technology should work for people. a robot must obey the orders given by human beings, except where such order is it conflict with the 1st law and end of the nation. we should be very careful about artificial intelligence at that point obviously is too great. trust rather than fear i would like to take on various jobs with artificial intelligence, real summoning with a robot must protect its own existence with
1:29 am
you know, there was no program when i left i kind of and all of us at life esther hate kind of stumbled our way through it and then we can take the lessons that we've learned from that and shrink the time frame down. so there's less was less wandering in the wilderness so to speak. when i was in the move in the last 2 years, before i left, i was struggling with do i want to leave? i like, pardon me, want to leave another part? did it been battle with us? if i leave, i have nothing to fall back on. i have that deposit, do i have nobody to go to? you know me as i live around last 7 years. i have nothing. sometimes it's hard. if they've got a swastika tattooed on their neck, it's hard for them. but just to say, i don't do that anymore. it's kind of a long process. it's not like you just leave it one day and you're like, well, i'm glad that's over. i had been out of movement before i got connected with these guys, but i was on my own and didn't talk about it and had
1:30 am
a lot of buried shame and guilt. and then i met these guys and i saw, you know, friends talking arnold, talk it, help me get past that barrier of feeling like i had to hide this from the world that opening up has really just taken my, my healing process and my evolution to a whole other level really you've got to find a way to find an affirmation that every discussion, no matter how bad it feels, it is going. you've just got to be able to acknowledge like takes guts to do that. try to help them discover the abilities that they have. this is why we don't want to foster dependency. this is why the intervention can't rely on my christmas. they go from being untrusting hateful, spiteful, distant, to begging for more interaction. another phone call. another meeting in a tell me poor and don't be surprised when they say that's the best conversation i've had in a long time. that is something that's very routine that comes out of the people just want to be.
