aah! with a russian city, a guy showed no signs of the new attack, killed one civilian in 6 others and declares martial law and for russian territories on the front line. the brain 0 in russian gas is not a good idea. the message from an energy minutes, the war in europe faces a survey crisis next winter, without russian gas supplies, as he refuses to drive more gas export. asia to europe. the u. s. decision to curve the supply of lack of chips may create

a less stable world. that housing opposed to prime minister wanted to us to move of imposing restrictions on technology, exports to china. we have fallen behind russia and especially china as a pentagon to weapons a supply of time over the largest defense spending. the world is at a disadvantage when it comes to 5 to speak with hello and welcome to international growth. are seeing life from moscow. just past the hour, i'm at where i to mommy. let's take a look at today's top stories. we start with the updates from the conflicts ukraine, relentless shelling of the center russians diversity by quinn and forces killed, one civilian and left 6 others injured in last 24 hours. the local administrative

office and a bank in the city center have been severely damaged early on thursday. shockwave from the shilling shattered windows and nearby buildings and scattered glass and shrapnel at the administration site. theater has come shortly after they put in declare martial law in the full new territories. that recently joined russia. the russian president says the decision to impose was a little comes in response to terrorist threats from ukraine. meanwhile, on the other side of the front line, a raise cyrus have, sanity course. so regions in southern i'm central ukraine prisoners, he announced another 3 energy production facilities in his country have been hit, add disabled. the nearest town. does ukraine's energy research center report that 40 percent of the country's power infrastructure damaged from recent attacks as well, so continues it strikes on ukraine's moving target rushes defense minute rubles.

more than a 160 plain troops have been killed and several almond vehicles destroyed. ah weeny off rush and gas is a decision that will backfire. that's the message from a european countries from cut us energy. mr. warning, it will face an even worse energy prices next winter without russian gas. this comes off of the was 3rd biggest gas ex will. the has refused to divert gas for from asia to europe ahead of winter. you just don't have enough volume to bring in to replace the gas for the long term. unless you're saying i'm going to be building huge nuclear plants, i'm going to allow coal. i'm going to burn fuel oils. as gas prices have risen, 1st, the e u. the sea, according to the cuts are in minnesota, europe still have enough reserves to get through this winter, but he adds that the block will be hard for us once those reserves run out. all

these india trying to explain so european countries are doing just a warm the us trying really hard to save its members from soaring gas prices while sticking to the goal of giving up on gas imports from russia. the european commission has just come up with a set of proposals. they include joint gas purchase, the creation of a liquefied natural gas pricing benchmark, and also default energy solidarity between members. states, one of the lifelines for the e. you could have been long term supply deals for l. g with guitar, one of the world's largest l, g producers. but the problem is that could tar has most of its volumes already contracted under such deals with buyers outside europe. recently, chinese ellen gee, importers have been selling their excess inventory to europe, which has been a relief for brussels, but bay gene has told their energy giants to stuff that practice ahead of winter.

in february this year could tar already warned europe of serious consequences if it were to quit gas import from russia. but as we understand, these warnings fell on deaf ears. russia provides a thing 30 to 40 percent of the supply to europe. there is no single country that can replace that kind of volume. there isn't the capacity to do that from l n g. now the energy crisis has indeed gone so far that you officials are admitting that the blogs, green commitments could be in jeopardy. the risk that there is in this symmetric consequences of these cries, this is for europe to lose competitiveness. and so our 2 main commitments, 1st on the clean energy transition and 2nd on implementing reforms and the

investment of next generation you. last week the russian president vladimir pointed out that one of the 2 north stream to gas pipes remains undamaged. so if you're being buyers, want extra russian gas, all they have to do is certify the operation of north train to well for now the you hasn't made a single step in that direction. we go reaction from a guy, right, consultant, man, educator, me now you who says europe needs to find other sources as middle east supplies all contract to other states. this is like a you can see the after the opec plus decision to cut production. we can see that the love of the gc countries are changing their staff and your costs are actually that officially, a few months ago they were, they were a little bit more optimistic about for production to,

to europe. but you can see now the cuts are actually changed this stance towards europe and they're actually saying we cannot commit to europe for women years as we have they have other contract wishing with other asian company. so i think that the minister cutty minister is right about his predictions and europe needs to actually find out or sources. but let's turn out to the all 920, if congress of the chinese communist party, which is laying out the country as strategies the next 5 years and beyond. oh, on the 5th day of the conference, officials from the chinese pharmacy of the parties. international departments have held a press conference outlining china's foreign policy objectives and priorities. beijing

singled out below the blocks, thinking on the hedge, a monic, aspirations as the main threat to international order. it also condemned to us his actions in taiwan, including house. we can nancy pelosi, we visit at, at the same time, beijing equals international corporation. a main priority for teens ovals, such as the belt and road initiative and china's strategic partnership with russia less now crossed, lived she, unit phase hours, c g t n correspondent. thanks for joining us here. archie. now i was trying to see this current global evaluation of his foreign affairs environments. absolutely, that came with the current situation is a changing local land sick situation. now ahead of the national congress, the united species central committee sat that the past 5 years has been as usual, and an extraordinary, it did not focus on really the local landscape,

but certainly somehow it's targeting on the local that's 6 given the current situation. for example, the pandemic as well as the prices, the ukraine, and many other climate changes, you know, a challenges. so in the report delivered by sitting at the opening session by the way, the entire week, a lot of people are discussing on the report. see said that are so far it's there is that there's a changing our world are times and his are are changing weights like never before and see sat that are the hedge. a monic highs i'm handed and bullied the act of using strength to intimidate the week and taking it from others by fours and playing 0. some games are exerting a game harm. and i've seen king said that there is a deficit in piece development, security and governance in growing. so, so far the, china's standing has be very consistent at this, given this current situation. it's not a time of pointing finger on each other,

but say down for ordination on conversation, find time is sending a common mutual interest for the sake of resolving any price is currently in the world. no, john isn't devanie farm as i've written, the stresses in its partnership between beijing, m of her, her house has been viewed, i know on the side by the or the conference hasn't been discussed that'll well the strategic walk ration i think my understanding of that is that it comes to multiple fronts, not only just the trade between china and russia, but also from many perspective, whole joy exchanges, economic exchanges, where people to people are exchanges. i mean, china and russia as been in a very well relationship and that all became all pains and you know, trying to relationship with a former soviet union. so this kind of relationship, i've been develop all the way through. and also given the current situation of the

quite between washer and crane. i mean china a one perspective. acknowledge that the nato east, 40 french and that really heard the interest of moscow. and other other hand, chinese laying a neutral position while promoting were peaceful a dialogue and resolution between the 2 sides because nobody wants the war and nobody wants any kinds of you may. is dr. company in the way, no doubt indeed. i know quite well said sir, now we've heard a little thing about in a nancy pelosi was visiting taiwan has and the pressure that sort of been on china one china policy has have been told anything about that throughout the conference regarding bringing taiwan back into the folds well, this is a conference about foreign policy, but absolutely i want it's art of china is not the related or all of the but the interference or 4th. this is something that related to the foreign policy,

trying to trying to respect the over at the territory and super d all countries, of course, try and it will make all efforts to safeguard its own. and china has a very consistent in taiwan question. one hand, high, one question, internal question. so any interference, it's really an interfering of china's internal affairs and china bow for resolving to tie one question in a peaceful manner, but never eliminated any kind of possibility. there is the foreign interest or internal separatism came out, and china will use force to resolve such issue shar ok, let's love this up. i mean, i don't know, this is up to say that we've been, have a lot of the external pressure with especially the u. s full thing, you know, other countries not to supply technology to transfer to these chip,

these micro chips. and these, you know, other technology movement has that been talked about on the sidelines at the conference, not for today's conference, but absolutely for the congress for the entire week trying to spend a lot of time talking about better promot. it's so innovation and it's carried out to strategic a series of strategic matters or promoting innovation. and it's also we did in part of its trying to strategy of high quality development. and the most part of the reason of it being boosting innovation here in china is that china doesn't want to make sure doesn't want its technology or strained, or any kind of development. china needs to be make sure that it's kind of with how in its own kind, but not affected by any kind of book or policy change very well so, so in phase out, as always a good do. thank you so much for joining me here today. as a safe,

but we'll see you down soon. i don't think i think was prime minister was that the u. s. decision to curve the supply of my friendships to johnny. somebody may create unless they will world, the politician responded to the new sleeping restrictions on technology x will to china. the binding administrations latest move is a very serious one. i'm sure they have considered it carefully. we do worry that valid national security considerations may trigger further consequences resulting in less economic cooperation, less interdependency, less trust, and possibly ultimately a less stable world. the u. s. face sleeping restrictions on semiconductors on chip making equipment. x falls in china last week. washington next, next taiwan home to the largest shit, make it a blind by the punitive measures. however, for any nation, oh cool version to bypass the prime, they will need to apply for

a special license from the us. the chinese government responded to the decision, saying that it will weaken the global economy, tucson, ginger, sandy, arbitrarily, placing cabs for political purposes, the stabilizes, the supply and industrial changed parts of as and backfires on one south. it will only further weaken the already fragile world economy. and suppliers are causing, say, ties to china, it makers in response to the new us ex, will controls. in europe, all states, the e u countries may have to shut down production in parts of the ultimate of sector. this comes a, sorry, energy prices are crippling european industries and new cuts and the availability of semiconductor is assess set to exasperate supply chain issues. so me can doubt of i could shift a vital for high and manufacturing and equipment one. china has been trying to boost domestic production. he remains heavily dependent on supplies from the world

. major producers in the us, south korea and taiwan jones is in advance computing. and weapons manufacturing and trying to consume more than 3 quarters of the semiconductor sold globally. earlier i flew to henry wine founder, the sensor for china and globalization. and he says that the u. s. will meet a wave of criticism from the foreign companies that are directly affected this kind of a gesture, this kind of policy is sending a really negative messages throughout the world for protection as well. for isolation, for unilateralism and a bridge of the future there spell that u. s. has been pretty pigeon for all those years and has been leading that force over the years. it's really sad to see this is really happening. and i mean, a lot of those companies, a pipeline to china for the largest market,

but in the war, this is really doesn't make sense. you can imagine, you know, that if i presented, what i found was made in china is only chips. and i'm going to hold this company, went in china clinic on san 6 percent of its troops in china. i mean, i do see this is make sense. so i'm a thing, you know, it's a gesture on the u. s. government, but i hope that we're not really ready for us. that are so much i'm a really big on me, a lot of the opposition from the business community. i don't think this going this policy as was part of the can carry that far. no blanket check. so you claim us what the republican leader in the us house of representatives had to say about further aid's ukraine. he says the boyland missing and i have failed to handle its own domestic issues. and the economic crisis is just one of them. i think people are going to be sitting in a recession and they're not going to write a blank check to ukraine. they just won't do it. and then there's the things, the biden administration is not doing domestically,

not doing the border and people begin to weigh that ukraine is important. but at the same time it can't be the only thing they do and it can't be a blank check. yes, me now let's look quick. so the mouse representative mccarthy's statement saying that democracy is no longer important to the republicans, while the democrats still hold the majority in the house of representatives. ukraine continues to get financial help from the united states with over 17000000000 dollar than aid. already sent. washington plans to transfer another $725000000.00 to keep for security assistance. this comes as soaring, inflation is being ignored by the, by the administration. with fox is host tucker carlson. plenty out the blind spots . i'm not concerned about our economy. i'm concerned about ukraine, our economy strong as hell. really. have you looked at markets is not just tycoon. you care that for your retirement account is it's way down. and by the way,

day to day, you notice inflation. we have record inflation. is only the usb that is raising concerns over the immense, healthy ukraine. some european ego and policy makers are also on high alert over the blocks future. they warn that healthy ukraine brings immense financial risk since cubes possible default main dragged down the you. now let's take a closer look to the projected state of e u. economy. the next year in the late as i am of european department briefing, the director of the branch has stated the blocks g d p is expected to decrease reaching almost 0 level in e advanced economy. i'm floating at 92 percent in emerging once the invasion rate will shift to by far a reducing from current 9 percent and the advanced e countries but increasing the weaker european economies. and that's what the blocks top economic official at to say. energy prices have spiked and they are

unlikely to return to their pre more levered soon. this sad times of trade shock has raised farms, costs and lead to a cost of living crisis. a complete shut off of remaining russian gas flows to europe, combined. the decoy ventre could recite in gas shortages and rationing, giving rise to cheat p losses of up to 3 percent in some central and eastern european economies. and yet, and not about of inflation across the continent. daughter jack ross was professor ve comments and policies at st. mary's college of california says that the u. s. will not be able to continue financial aid to keep if a full blown recession comes to the states. we're going to have a, a situation of a jo, undisputable recession. i in the 1st quarter of next year in question is how serious is again a get a that's going to generate a much larger deficit. and if you listen to mccarthy, he's

a focusing on that deficit. that means that they're going to have the current social spending, and that raises the question, can they still keep by increasing spending on ukraine in i'll u. s. is given a $3000000000.00 a month just for its economy to keep it from collapsing. further, not including the military aid, the alaska depend on what happens on the ground. if the ukraine forces offensive is successful next couple months, it's gonna be hard for them to say, well, we're gonna pull the money. but if it's not successful, it'll be easier for them to say, well, we can continue buying other new the panel of experts and official sponsored by raytheon, a major pentagon contract that was at the u. s. is far behind russia and china when it comes to hypersonic weapons and that has consequences. we have fallen behind russia and especially china. every time we did were games and certain

scenarios around the world. we found out that when the united states was facing it had developed hypersonic abilities. if we didn't have that capability, we lost testing is something we're behind on. we're behind china. even even russia for that matter. high was i, missiles, flight is 5 times the speed of sound. they can also move a while traveling to target. in 2017 russia became the 1st country to feel such weapons, deploying the tingle as a surface missile. mazda is also also includes the advent garden glide vehicle carried by intercontinental ballistic missiles and the phone and the ship cruise missile. the us for is for, is not expected to deploy, hypertonic weapons before, next year. at the earliest i was he does capability to defend itself from such weaponry is also being questioned as a congressional report. ones, the countries rate of our quote insufficient for trucking,

russian and chinese misses. the concerns over the hypersonic weapons come as the annual heritage foundation report was that the u. s. military has become weaker than it was last year. it was a low assessment of the state of air and naval forces with a slightly higher evaluation on the state of ground forces these a dislike of increasing military spending in the u. s. i spoke to scott richard, former marine corps intelligence officer, and he says that even as the u. s. military industrial complex tries to get more money from washington, it will be hard to increase the speed of development when it comes to hypersonic weapons. united states has spent the last 20 years fighting low intensity conflict in iraq and afghanistan. our focus hasn't been on building weapon systems capable of confronting peer or even near peer opponent. so china, russia, even the rod,

you know, now we're trying to play catch up and, you know, if the, the american defense procurement system is not a one that is, are you good at doing the rapid development of weapons? it specializes in dragging things out over the long term that helps to make more money. but congress is a little hesitant because they've been taken for a ride in the past by these very same friends, contractors, the russians have a very effective air defense, integrated air defense system that can protect against almost anything the united states can throw at it. um, united states has nothing to protect against the russian hypersonic capability. so it's a, it's advantage russia and, um, you know, in any protracted conflict, even even a short term conflict, the ability to inflict damage on an opponent that can't be reciprocated,

tends to indicate who's going to win when the confrontation, the once held median limelight of washington's gulf allies may be fading, no washington buzz as publish and invest with a ripple saying, revealing that since 2015 well than 500 us retired military personnel have taken high paying jobs in countries which the article has cited as quote, known for human rights abuses. and political repression, as when nations between the us and saudi arabia sour, the washington post report claims at 15. u. s. retired and generals have consulted full cramp as mom had been summons defense, ministry of the last 6 years. according to federal law, middle officers must get flagged government approval to receive any foreign funding or gifts. however, some veterans have allegedly bypassed this authorization, and others saw for unemployment was still on active duty.

this white saudi arabia being his of human rights abuses, and washington accusing the crown prince himself of ordering a murder of jealous tomorrow for surely the 2 countries have maintain economic and political corporation for years. the washington post article, however, comes at a time when u. s. sadie relations appear to be deteriorating job. i've just recently worn. they will be consequences for react journey, other opec plus countries in cutting oil production. there's going to be some consequences for what they've done with russia. what kind of consequences went into says suspend all arms sales. is that something you'd consider? i'm not going to get into what i'd consider what i have in mind, but there will be, there will be consequences. we sell massive amounts of arms to the saudis. i think we need to rethink those sales. i think we need to list the exemption that we have given this opec plus cartel from us price fixing liability. and we need to look at

our trip presence in the middle east coast while it may be wavering, a little bit has been strongly supportive of the u. s. support of the ukrainian or russian conflict. so the washington post has, has never hesitated to support the bye in line on this. so when you read via an opec of course, didn't respond to by this request that they put more well, an insect did the opposite. that is seen as connecting to the ukraine russian situation, and it is seen as being is it basically if you're not on, if you're not with us, you're against us. so the post can easily swing to were against saudi arabia, the united states government, and it's spokesman, and the president and the media arm that supports it. i don't even think they're aware of the hypocrisy of what they choose to talk about and what they choose to be

enraged about. you know, when it serves us, we ignore it. i in fact, the arms that are being used in yemen, american arts, we're selling those arms to saudi arabia and they're, they're using them in yemen. we're making money off of that. so, you know, and again, maybe it's about the making of the money. you know the arms and weapons and apparently generals are the america's biggest export. ah, yes, businessmen are sneaky. i also get off the evil. another bill act was toast, in his opinion, into the ring regarding the cove it between russia and ukraine. he urged the concessions like a recognizing crime is possible. russia should be made as the idea is quite different from weston agenda. all these billionaires wanting to school us about history are leaving out important bits that show their ideas are bad. shouldn't

people in crimea determine if they want to be part of russia? ukraine? crimea is not a chip to trade. it's filled with people. if those people choose v a referendum, which is a real vote not staged, then we should live with the result. no, it's been ukrainian all the time. russia had no say at all. billionaire investor bill ackman and he's getting on social media and putting forward a piece proposal. and acknowledging that in fact, there is credibility to rushes claims to both crimea and don boss. now of course there was immediately a fire storm in response to what he said on social media. now this comes as a, we're facing a situation where we just heard from ilan, mom. he put forward a different piece proposal that he also is speaking of and talking about the need to de escalate alon moscow acknowledged. some of the concerns similar statements were made. it was a different piece proposal,

but he's another billionaire in the united states with white, a bit of influence. and he also made similar statements. ukraine, russia, peace, redo elections, of an ext regions under un supervision. brush leaves, if that is, will of the people crimea, formerly part of russia, as it has been since 1783 until crucial mistake. now the fact that we have billionaires in the united states speaking up and making these points on social media, while we're not hearing that from the mainstream media or from the politicians, shows that something is happening beneath the surface. and the reality is that the results placing the energy markets as well as facing the global economy as a result of sanctions on russia are not good. and at the same time, we have a situation in united states where we're facing a lot of inflation. the cost of living is going up, food prices, energy prices are through the roof. americans are not happy and we're heading in to the upcoming mid term elections on november 8th. so.
