[000:00:00;00] a with all region as a packet, full time on thursday, with 9 being in the local found an alert sound in the crate. r, as in most with propose of the new gas pipeline to create the regal gas in the country. as with his counterpart on the summit, a saudi arabia received a request for a delay oil production cut by

a month inciting with out of the scenes. national broadcasting live from mazda is just past 5 am here in the capital. i'm right to mommy, but i can look at the top stories on this is sought with the latest from the convent ukraine as strike let's have sounded in the crane held cities of his up rogia and the authorities in grand harcourt region report. but it's an energy infrastructure has been damaged in russian attacks on thursday, the 24th is launched. a rocket attack that hit the belgrade region in the western russia. there are no reports on and of any casualties, but the strikes left part of the local town in flames says a so i was the 4th attack in the area in the last 24 hours and came just also residential high rise in the sense of belgrade became

a target for kids trips so cause i had an appointment was very damaged in the attack. egos done of brings up the details of the situation. according to the governor of the bugger, at region, the ukrainian armed forces have indeed targeted and arms depot in. well, a within the, just next to the town of belgrade, which is a border town. now, this falls in line to a recent escalation when it comes to ukraine's attacks, honor the russian towns and board of villages. this one is just one of them i. but while this one did indeed target a military facility, others well in the, to the large proportion didn't, for instance, just early on thursday or a russian missile air defense system intercepted a ukrainian missile. and it's debris had an apartment building within the city limits of belgrade are now due to due to a sheer lucky chance. no, no one was injured among civilians. no one was hurt. now the day before that on

wednesday again, russian air defenses, they shut down a number of targets in the air, apparently all were ukrainian groans and again, the crenan forces are they have been shelling russian border towns and villages relentlessly. in the past couple of weeks, i mean they have been doing it for months, but recently they have escalated their efforts and to large extent, the only targeted wall just residential areas. in a more notable case, they, for instance, had a monastery of all things or so there is that. and basically, according to the russian president vladimir putin, russia could not stand idle and just watch that apparently the red line that the ukrainians had crossed was the bombing of the crimean bridge. and so that russia did not take that well, just a few days ago, a moscow launched and full out missile attack. it was of such scale which we have not seen since the very beginning of russia's special operation back in february. so according to russia, that this attack,

which should targeted ukraine's critical infrastructure, mainly the energy sector and the railroad system. well basically it was meant to kind of to send a message that stopped shelling, rushes residential areas and so on and so forth. and in general, we have seen russia sticking to this plan. now the scale has subsided a little bit, but air rate alerts have become a regular thing for ukraine. now, according to ukraine's authority, some 30 percent of ukraine's energy infrastructure has been well damaged to a various extent. now again, russia has also been targeting ukraine's railroads. all this is done in a bid to not just send a message, but to hamper ukraine's ability to cripple its ability to deliver a new military machines, new military hardware and personnel to the front quickly. so this is what russia has been doing as ukraine in its turn has been amassing while huge forces are on the front line in

a bid to break rushes defenses and to keep their own slaughter on the russian forces. so this is where the situation stands at right now. neither side wants to back down. and so this all, it looks like paves a path towards further escalation. russian prison will input and has allows and thoughts are on the way with anchorage consult. a new gas pipeline project in vicious envisions, through here as a primary gas transport hub for both europe and asia. listen, if there is interest from turkey and our possible buyers in other countries, we could consider building another pipeline system and creating a gas hub in turkey for sales to 3rd countries, especially european one day. if of course, they are interested earlier, my colleague royce and she discussed the proposal with ortiz oksana,

booker turkey responded positively to this proposal. and the teams from both sides are looking very deliberately and very urgent feel to something like this. now we haven't heard any confirmation from the turkish side yet, apart from saying that, you know, prisoners on received this offer with big interest. but i think this is something that would flatter turkey a great deal because it offers it an opportunity to raise it's sending internationally and economically. and this is something that president or the one has been after for many, many years. it would be russian energy going to turkey, then it's up to turkey, essentially, where it goes from there. and could it be the same idea on that russian energy goes to toki, then turkey sells that to europe, and it's still russian energy going to your, this is exactly what the russia propose us. and i think it's, i cannot say that is a risk free proposition because as you know, before russia was selling its gas,

you're buy ukraine. and even before the recent confrontation, you know, times 60 years ago, there were constant delegations of russia using its energy as, as a weapon. and selling your energy is through an intermediary, comes with it with certain risks. but apparently, the turkish russian relationship are good enough for put into trust or the on the now from that, and i think what the rational once at this point is deliver its energy somewhere and then leave it up to a turkey or 3rd country to decide if the one that russian affordable russian gas provides very important basis for many countries. it used to provide very important foundation for european economy. i mean, is the basis for your grouping prosperity, and this is something that europeans no longer supposedly want. turkish example, demonstrate that within a couple of years that could give a country a tremendous benefits, tremendous economic benefits, and russian is doing that. not out of the goodness of his heart. it's also

a beneficial bill for, for russia, but what it wants it is to have a leveled equal, equal based partnership. we told earlier, a relations expert message sure heard his said, the russian president's proposal of a new pipeline would bring benefits to both countries. very important and very fruitful, a meeting between turkey and also russia and other asian countries. actually it's, it's very important because as you know, it's the winter. he's coming home to europe and that's why he needs some, you know, energy facilities and also, and there's forces instead of actually others at once. that's why today's no coming from russia to be able to gather up into yeah.

okay. in other news, advocare faster is set to announce a new into president. in the next 2 days, the country's national assembly kicks off this friday of the african nation in june . second to this year, a murphy gentle laid by captain abraham pro, re seized power in the west african country. on the last day of september, the regime change will demonstrate just to rally in the streets with russian flags and demonic ties. with france, a former colonial ruler outrage residence even the seas, the french embassy smashing windows and setting fires around the diplomatic compound. the french institute, one of the main cultural centers in the country, was also met with a resident scorn and a baze. processes smashed the buildings, vandalizing, the library and other common areas. the institute workers condemned to the

destruction, but processes on the streets had a different opinion. for me, when you are losing soldiers every day and civilians have to leave their villages. i think it's normal that some day people express their disappointment and anger. the scenes of destruction are clearly a signal that people are mad at you. because we do not know what france is doing here in burkina. if you're in a country and nobody knows your role better, you leave francis the cause of all our misfortunes. frances, responsible for all these crazy things in africa. we are here to fight until our last breath. the media center, one of the main library of what i do, the last sample of the co voice in between paris and what got to go 62 years back was decided to create the international festival of movies, of what it was here. it was laboratory last october. first people went out and everything because that my situation month,

but phrase promises to end the war. and for 11 years now things are no changes. many authorities of looking up i saw captain tower, brought him, decided not to close the corp. we've only one country. they're going to work with anyone who can help including washer turkish and frank. but people might want to go fast and don't want cup to tell, want to go fast as he can to move for war. and with this war, as he's busy now to set up institutional organization, have people involved with this national foundation starting this friday. before this year, we'll decide who going to be the next president. it will decide also was going to be the duration of parliament was going to be the size of the government. the size of parliament was low. what get to saudi arabia has released a statement,

claiming that by those mistaken off in max a one months delay to a recent open plus decision to cut all production by $2000000.00 barrels a day. the timing of the request matches mid term elections finishing in the us on the 8th of november, riyadh, explain why it rejected the core the government of the kingdom clarify, through its continuous consultation with the u. s. administration. that all economic analyses indicate that postponing the opec plus decision for a month, according to what has been suggested, would have had negative economic consequences. this is a pretty big revelation. they're letting a pretty big cat out of the bag that it seems that the priority of us leaders, when it came to asking opec to move ahead with their decisions. and they asked to delay it for one month because they were concerned about us election results. that a clear it appears the november 8 mid term elections that are set to take place here in the united states and with

a new congress will be elected members. the house of representatives, numbers the u. s. senate will be elected or reelected. i at that seems to be what the issue was now. the democrats are furious with saudi arabia. they're that all this talk of calling the 70 year relationship between the usa and saudi arabia and question here. some of what democratic party leaders have said in light of the saudis refusing to play ball with the united states, are going to be some consequences from what they've done with russia. suspend all arm sales. is that something you'd consider? i'm not going to get into what i've consider what i have in mind, but there will be, there will be consequences. i do see it as a deliberately hostile act and, and what, why would we have troops defending a country that behaves this way towards us? for years, we have looked the other way as saudi arabia has jackets shopped up journalists, it has engaged in massive political repression. for one reason, we wanted to know that when the chips were down, when there was a global crisis,

that the saudis would choose us instead of russia. well, they didn't, usa continues to supply saudi arabia with weapons. there's the ongoing war in yemen . and there's some democrats that now feel like they want to, they want to cut off the supply weapons. they want all us troops that are in strategic areas, supporting saudi arabia to be removed. there's the no pack bill, this is a law that would enable people and entities in the united states to file lawsuits and take countries to court for violating and manipulating the oil prices. it's negative. back in the united states is quite dramatic. now the saudi foreign minister expects this will all blow over after the big elections are over. unfortunately, when you are in the election season with some people called a funny season, a lot of things are said and lots of things are done that may be, may not make sense at another period of time. and i hope that this is what we're dealing with here. it appears that the democratic party leadership was concerned

about how gas prices may affect the election. and they wanted the saudis to put off their decision to cut oil production until after the elections because of how it would affect the gas prices. they don't seem to be concerned about the fact that americans are paying $3.00 to $6.00 per gallon of gas. so that families are being squeezed, they're not concerned about european allies of the united states. freezing in the winter. they're concerned that all of these economic consequences they could affect the election results. they could change how people go ahead, devote a real amount of cynicism revealed on the part of us leaders, or they essentially wanted saudi arabia to play ball with them and make decisions that would have political dana fit for them in the short term when it came to how americans vote on november 8th is a quote. the west has openly declared as material and the seat, but how the russian form mysteries spokesperson maria's i zarathustra ransom

some recent comments by ease diplomat winters bureau, who recognized nature's failure to keep his promises to russia. in the past, hinting at the blow, previous pledges not to expand eastwood's missy. i'm not satisfied with the reasoning and arguments with which many people, including my friends, justify aggression by saying that nato has not kept his promise. is it possible this is history for none of us justifies what's happening now when it says the outbreak of it in ukraine. native members have flooded the country with advanced weaponry, even before the conflict. they carried out regular training drills in the country. this comes as a native ship confirmed that the allies his plans and go ahead with annual new 3rd exercises. 14 of the alliance is 30 member states will be involved in the drills next week. p st research on jam elbow says the e u foreign policy chief should be more careful about history because it's because

it matters when it comes to conflicts. i think it's very important to remember that these promises were given to gorbachev. they are well documented, for instance, in the national security archiving martin. i am not in favor of the meat of any military action or any war, but to deny that russia has had a sense all the time of being encroached upon to be approached to be pleased in a way that every reality politic person ex, from me as hymer isn't just rushing, god knows who has warned. not necessarily getting crane too at all to negro, you crime. it was the place that could release was there is nothing to be surprised about. and even when you're look at what caused the conflict, which is always underlying the violence, then we can never solve this problem. so it's time is simple, read, read something about concrete resolution,

conflict understanding and history. joseph burrell has also called for more engagement with the rest of the world. was him dubbed a jungle in order to say what he called the european god. them, he was caught sharing his candid, those are the talk in belgium, to future professionals. you took a garden, we had built a garbage advocacy works is the best combination of our political freedom, economic prosperity, and social cohesion. that the human kind has been able to build those 3 things together. the rest of the world must of the rest of the goal. it's a jungle and the jungle could invade the garden and the gardeners should take care of it. when this is cindy rody and my. ready

sister mark if i me see because it's quite. ready places to say that your role is a garden, that is so beautiful and the rest of the world is a job should be do we didn't do it by heart. i mean, i the very and the stability that they want to see in the world is his vision was a particularly directed advice. because that is the only in china that can really destabilize the peace and stability of god, god in the mail created. and one of the things that really throw in a lot of or has enough rico or the fact that we are referred to as the john and predominantly, we know that the, you, you, you should lose points. it was just thinking about because they make sure that our

people are under the law for a long time and due to be less dependent on them for a lot of things that i have a 2nd. and they come in milk on every day in the same w, b, c. and the great garden that is the call in europe in the colonial copy does that despite the ego and struggles of russia faces of economic im bloggers, prospects, the recession are waning. while it is europe, that is falling into decline. according to a recent article published in the economist social media trolls or posting videos intended for european audiences showing gas stove left on full blast . what might cost? hundreds of euros in berlin comes to a few roubles in moscow. a taunting is childish, but it hint, city for truth,

the economic war between russia and the west. is it a delicate moment? while europe teachers, on the brink of recession, russia is emerging from one. let's have a look at the 6 this white eas sanctions on moscow. lin, facial rate, in russia, has been declining. last month it stood at 13.7 percent compared to 17.8 percent earlier this year. europe, on the other hand, he's breaking new recalls the czech republic and left their face historically high levels of inflation last month. denmark and grease are coping with the highest rates in decades. l rasmussen, executive vice president of the region center says that while rushes grow economically, the worst is yet to come. for europe. russia is a very, very to the global supply chain in the global economics. the on the mental area of the economy in,

in europe is fine. they're very beneficial, but they lack the raw material. the same with the us. they make a lot of things that they need the raw material. russia has those raw materials and then when you're partnering with china as well in india, this is a very, very and with the brick brick. well, i mean you've got a very, very, very positive growth that maybe some difficult times initially. but i think the growth is very, very rough in russia. russia can sell the same as they need if they needed to make them not so with europe and less. so the u. s. can pretty much but, but europe not, we're just being started. i believe 2023. maybe in the 2024. it's going to be much work. the u. s. has published its new national security strategy, identifying keith on the future of its murphy development. according to the

document, washington will be turning its eyes to the indo pacific. we have entered a consequential new period of american foreign policy that will demand more of the united states in the indo pacific than has been asked of us since the 2nd world war . no region will be of more significance to the world into every day americans in the indo pacific place in the end of the region on the u. s. map of interest is justified in the document, as it was a great need for american leadership, leadership inches, outcompetes in china, and constraining russia which are named as washington's arrivals. china is accused of wanting to reshape the international world or the wild. russia is labeled a threat to international peace for u. s. a marine cool intelligence offices with us as washington is breaking international vacations as it acts, actions one,

country 2 is one china policy. when you have the u. s. admiral bragging that the united states would be able to defeat any block a china might put around taiwan when you have a u. s. air force, general bragging about how the united states would destroy chinese logistics of systems and lines of communication. if there was ever aggression against taiwan, when you have u. s. officials visiting taiwan as if taiwan was an independent state when the united states providing taiwan with millions of dollars of modern weaponry. well beyond that which is needed for the gym at defense purposes. and then it becomes clear that the one china policy is in name only that the united states is openly advocating for to china is the communist party dominated mainland china. and the pro american government that existed in taiwan

ah, rose, cause of the russian space agency has successfully lost. i'm going to lose the communication, right angle that to from the by can are closed syndrome with us on the line. and i think i'd like to replace the 1st one which was lost in the long failure. the satellite deployment wasn't delayed by the current of ours pandemic economy impose on russia and isn't to will provide communications and high speed internet access for the next 15 years. the countries, events of information technology says the new satellite will improve the quality of life the angle in people valenda. so we were disappointed by the 1st satellite launch when we did not see results. the government worked very hard and

courageously. it took years until the 2nd satellite was launched. i hope it improves the internet, communications science and navigation. that's the vows, thank god, that the current government has done something without being forced by the public. personally, i've seen for the 1st time in my life that we have a satellite neighborhood, fidela val, on cross salt, will be back here in the season. the fall of the out of his head lives. we hope with a when else, so seemed wrong. when all, please, just don't hold me you world yet to see proud disdain becomes the advocate. an engagement equals the trail. when so many find themselves worlds apart,

we choose to look so common ground. ah, yes. now, can you give me this deploy smear to nancy in urban group. kim's, in a book that probably the national she radiates today. young will showcase is under nathaniel. that sounds good. it's a waste w boy. ah, ah,

what would be the name on that noun that would be put out in my chair. it's laura doesn't want that extra mom, but i know it's a program that y'all sh with . hello and welcome to cross talk. we're all things are considered. i'm peter lavelle every once in a while the mask slips. nato secretary general stilton berg said the obvious when saying if putting wins, this is not only a big defeat for the ukrainians, but it will be the defeat and dangerous or assault. yes, nato is at war with russia so much for the claim of being

a defense of alliance. ah. cross talking nato's war, i'm joined by my guest nichol. i petro in kingston is professor of political science at the university of rhode island in jersey city. we have sarah founder's, she is co director of international action center. her upcoming book is sanctions a wrecking ball in a global economy. and in mount jackson, we have karen kosky. she is a retired united states air force, lieutenant colonel who served both n s a and the office of secretary of defense are cross roads. and in fact, that means you can jump in anytime you want. and i always appreciate nickel. i'd like to return to what stuff and bird said, i'm going to repeat it here. a military victory for russia and ukraine would spell defeat for the entire western alliance. well, i mean, that's saying the obvious though, nato continues, continues. 8 is not a co belligerent, and it is not. russia is not there, it's not in the military conflict with russia, but by saying that, in fact, it's true. and i would say on this side of the pond, a lot of people believe exactly the same thing. that's why the stakes are so high.

go ahead, nick, why? i agree with you completely and like you said, what else is new? but that that's why rhetoric has become more and more i would say clearly. and he western identifying the west as the primary and happiness to russia here. and i think because of these kinds of statements by leading western politicians, his assessment has also become more widely accepted if not in the west than throughout the rest of the world. ok, well sarah, essentially the same thing because it would when we see what we look at, for example, political is reporting here. nature eyes 10 year plan for ukraine. i mean they're
