12:02 pm
in fact, does not rule out the use of nuclear weapons against non nuclear threats. it has been tamed. a controversial 1st strike policy that biden earlier suggested wouldn't be needed at a more. so apparently the you, as president, has changed his mind and pentagons new strategy in fact looks very similar to i used to be under trump administration. interesting that the publication of this new strategy was expected 6 months ago. it was postponed, and we only saw it now published exactly after weimer putting speaking at val di, discussion club earlier and thursday, explicitly said no to using nuclear weapons. this is what library putting had to say which you, when you can, you believe we have never said anything about the possible use of nuclear weapons by russia, but only hinted at statements made by the leaders of western countries. back windless truss was prime minister in the u. k. she told the press that britain is
12:03 pm
a nuclear power and it is the pm's job to use it. and she would do so. it's not verbatim but close. she said, i'm ready for it. and no one reacted the young woman as a bit out of her mind. how can one see such things in public? the u. s. president though question putin's words, claiming that talking about nuclear weapons actually means that moscow ease ready to use it. and that is an ironic claim, given that that's exactly what we keep hearing from the white house every day, nuclear weapons, nuclear weapons and was put in himself, explained that moscow had to rise up this issue fall in the west push for that. if he has no intention, why she keep talking to mouth, why she talks about the in the use of tactical nuclear, whatever. what nights us on this before your, your previous comments marie but how does this new strategy? the periods odds with joe bought his previous statements regarding nukes, a talked, there is actually a contradiction, a clear one. it's not just
12:04 pm
a reminder that the u. s. the only country on earth that unprovoked used the nuclear weapons in world history, but it is also a reversal biden's 2020 campaign pledge in which he was saying that nuclear weapons sit online uniquely be ever used in retaliation or as a deterrent their opinion that was last by progressive democrats and defense hawks, here's what mr. biden had to say. then. no, no rushes said more than once that he has no plans preemptively to use nuclear weapons. we'll start to see from the west to de escalate the situation. i radically, peter, we see the opposite, and opposites taps according to us diplomatic cable. washington is now speeding up its plans to upgrade nuclear weapons in europe with evan analysts criticizing the move as an unnecessary rush. asked for comment,
12:05 pm
pentico spokesperson answered that it is in no way linked to current events in ukraine and it was not set up in any way. but that is not exactly true because we know the delivery was scheduled for next spring, and it is happening this december. so does look like a push for a raise. the new u. s. defense strategy also focuses on the rising might of china, the american say beijing poses the greatest challenge to washington global influence. we got some reaction and insight from form a pentagon for seni security policy analysts, michael maloof. well, china is that has the 2nd largest economy in the world. it is basically from the pentagon's perspective, the ultimate quote threat in quote and in the, in the, in the years to come. because it has ramped up its military development programs. and it has greater numbers of ships than the united states does right now. and i
12:06 pm
think that between now and 2050 it is projected by the mil sussman offsets pentagon, that it's going to be china, that the u. s. is going to have to deal with as the competitive world power. but the chinese are taking a different tat, which is more construction in under developed countries of the world that by itself is a challenge to you as a dominance in the world. so we're going to see this as a prolonged conflict competitively, at least for years to come we, it will not jeopardize our people's wealth as the message from africa as a top to co producers, governor and ivory coast, our boy causing a co co sustainability meeting in brussels after accusing western companies of blocking opportunities to improve farmers incomes arctic correspondence corolla, title brings is more. this is not the 1st time that god and ivory coast have gone
12:07 pm
to the low body to be mind a better treatment for they are farmers whose go around, who hustle, every way to make sure that they produce what is expected by western multinational who rely on the crop to make their chocolate, if a bitter sweet story. it's sweet, if you are a western multinational and profiting from the value chain of making chocolate is very bitter. if you are a farmer in any of the fed countries that have gone out and ivory coast, because there you have no predictability. back in 2019, the 2 countries put so much price out on the group and the market that the finally relented to an idea of living income differential. this was to help regulate the price of cocoa, at least from the farmers point of view. the agreement was that the, a ton of cocoa would cost $400.00. now that is not how local trade it,
12:08 pm
so it local traders look at it as a differ ratio which was negative to both countries and insisted on buying that time. the time that was supposed to be $400.00 at $260.00, now dead makes $114.00. this a p a in the market, and it only shows up the value chain and never goes down to the farmers. now the farmers themselves, they only receive about 6 percent of the said, $100.00 and wall of $1000000000.00 in the street. that if the chocolate industry now, it's been fed that be with the multinational, do not really care about african farmers. and they just there for the profits, and that is why the re meg on improving the conditions of that l i v. that is the living in the differential. but if you of the spokes person of the getting a cold call, regulatory body that messed up the wall,
12:09 pm
he did not move his was when he spoke about the tendency of western companies to leave a legacy of poor africa even though they take from them clearly someone is ensuring that the former continues to stay poor, how to expect someone who is poor all the time to sustain an industry that is always making profit. clearly, there is something that is not right and it's not the 1st time that we're going to talk about it. there is the need for us to find different means of making a point for every one to know that something's wrong. there's a classic story of how west and colonialism, particularly capitalism, has left its mark on the african continent. they take the refined, they fell back to the continent at much, much inflated prices and to the world at large. and they mean a legacy of poverty and scourge across africa. the

by did administration is coming on the fresh criticism over its failure. it's a curb. the shortage of diesel in the country with supplies shrinking to their lowest level in more than a decade. taurus he's reported they have no plan out of the crisis. let's get the latest now. come on neo correspondent, caleb moore. pin kelly. nice to see. so the fuel price high because she just didn't to suddenly crop about of no way. it was the us government. i should be on to do it while we're in the middle of this diesel crisis. now, at this point from what we understand, there are only 3 weeks left in the supply of diesel fuel. and now we have mansfield energy speaking up because conditions are rapidly devolving at times. carriers are having to visit multiple terminals to find supply which delays deliveries and strains, local trucking capacity. now for ease of the national economic council of the white house says that all options are on the table to deal with this situation to resolve
12:11 pm
the diesel fuel crisis. now it's also important to know that according to the american automobile association, the price for a gallon of diesel fuel is roughly $5.32 at this point. that is twice what it was about. 50 percent higher, rather than it was last year at this time a year ago. at this time it was 50 percent lower. now the situation won't get better any time soon, but many voices are highlighting the fact that this cannot be separated and is directly related to the situation regarding russia and the international situation . thanks to the by the ministrations religious war in ukraine, this countries about to run out of diesel fuel according to data from the energy information administration. by the monday of thanksgiving week. that's 25 days from now. there will be more no more diesel. so what's gonna happen then?
12:12 pm
well, everything will stop that means trucks and trains and barges, all unable to move farm equipment will shut down. there'll be no deliveries because will be no trucks. they'll be no diesel generators. and then inevitably, our economy will crash because everything runs on diesel fuel. not and solar panels on a wind farms on diesel fuel. diesel is not a negotiable commodity. you have to have diesel. now this is yet another situation that has american unhappy with the by ministration and its ability to handle things related to the economy. now the mid term elections are set to take place november a many polls indicate this could be a moment of serious losses for the white house and the democratic party. so we'll be waiting to see how this plays out. but this is quite a serious situation regarding the diesel fuel. caleb many thanks for the update that thought he has caleb walk in there with the information. well, moving on,
12:13 pm
thousands of people have again flooded the streets of the check republics campus all to protest against its role in e u. sanctions against russia. no such rallies. and now into the 2nd month in the country with tens of thousands taking paws, demonstrate this chunk of anti government slogans and wave national flag world calling on the prime minister to resign. they insist the sanctions have exacerbated the country's energy crisis, which is left many dreading a harsh winter. and soaring gas and food prices. an american political commentator, whose company in prague told us that local authorities had deliberately downplaying the scale of the process. the german and french leaders have reportedly teamed up to oppose us at legislation, aimed at pressuring industries in europe. 2 leading economies. the move could lead to what is being called a trans atlantic trade war as anti contribute to rachel moss and explains. we're
12:14 pm
hearing now about what this meeting in paris this week between german chancellor, all schultz and french president. imagine that whole was really about despite their various disagreements they're both now looking at how the counter unfriendly measures coming from washington. the u. s. is already hammering the european union with natural gas prices and really benefiting from the fact that the block has much more dependence on this price. the american energy 2 to 4 times the u. s. domestic market price, according to president mac whole. now that's because europe cut itself off of the much cheaper russian fuel. but now sholtes and macros are reportedly also both worried that washington is tilting the playing field for the detriment of european export to america. specifically to bind in ministration, inflation reduction act, which gives energy and tax breaks to companies that invest on american soil, which is an open invitation basically for companies to bail out of europe at a time when they continents energy supplies,
12:15 pm
basically hinges on europeans worrying to sweaters. and taking 2nd showers. you're how the european reaction to that is being reported in the western prop. the message from the paras lunch is if the u. s. doesn't scale back then the you will have to strike back. similar incentive schemes for companies will be needed to avoid unfair competition or losing investments that move would risk plunging transatlantic relations into a new trade war by new protection measures also incentivize the purchase of american electric vehicles with battery made in america to the detriment of those made in europe with the french and german car industry being hugely important to both of their economies. michael was quick to speak out about the need for the taught to economic powers in europe to wake up and implement something similar. i'm just going to assume it know what we want to do with the batteries and the aid is to have a bi european acts like the we must keep them for your pain produces and for our
12:16 pm
solutions, the europeans are still too naive. this is one of the things that i discussed with jim and chancellor. all i've shown france and germany have to come together because we were to open the need for europe to counter american protectionism with its own isn't the only point of contention. berlin is also doubling down on its relationship with china at a time when the us has beijing in its cross hairs, and really wants the you to follow along with its plans and interests. like it did with russia. the u. s. commerce department, publish guidelines this month to curb access for china to us micro chips and the by didn't ministration expects allies to just sign on. that's according to western press reports, but berlin is just green lit, the purchase of a steak and a hamburg in tanf work by a chinese state on shipping giant, and is set also to visit president sheehan, praying in november. so the question now is whether parents in berlin will actually
12:17 pm
do something about why she has ever increasing dominance over their own economies and over the u economy. or, well, they just ultimately fall in line with washington marching orders. the syrian defense ministry of accused israel, of carrying out a 3rd as strike this week on science near damascus. the latest attack up and just off the midnight's local time with most missiles, reportedly intercepted by theory and defenses. no casualties were reported. although 2 prior attacks left one soldier wounded various seriana states lou as so say say as well has hit targets in syria. hundreds of times over the last few years . the most prominent attacks stroke, damascus, absolute in september, killing 3 people and rendering the runway unusable. israel has said its target, it targets any sites with connections to rainy and military fighters in syria. but
12:18 pm
as cross to vanessa, be an independent journalist faced in damascus. now vanessa nice to see how serious it is rarely strikes have been carried out hundreds of times since 2011. what do you think is the reason behind the strikes and the choice of targets? well, the choice of targets, of course, ezra will always presented as the self defense or argument in the sense that it's targeting iranian military basis, or iranian research centers or iranian, or collaboration centers with syria. of course this, or is still an unlawful aggression even under international law as syria is at war . it has been at war since 2011. there has been a prolonged state of emergency with regards to israel because israel has continued these unwarranted acts of aggression. it has supported the terrorist groups inside syria, both with weapons, with medical treatment,
12:19 pm
uneven. i'm with covering fire against the syrian ira, balmy, particularly in the south. and now of course, what are israel is facing is a number of fronts. it's facing the lebanese front assyrian front, the even, the yemeni front yemen, the has declared that it has missiles that can reach television and an escalation in the west bank. and even from the girls are itself the, the beleaguered and gaza strip. and so what we have been seeing is, is the downturn and it's ready aggression. wallet has been negotiating the car, reached a gas fields with lebanon, and even their israel, back down against the threat of military action by husband, or if they didn't agree to the terms put out by the lebanese government. and so therefore, that quiet period has come to an end. israel has the top 03 times and less than
12:20 pm
a week or the 2nd time. the missile actually paused overhead here at 2 o'clock in the afternoon when children are still in the school playgrounds. and if that missile had been brought down, then civilian lives would have been put at risk. a, as well as official reason is that the targets a connected to a rainy and fight is in theory. i was, he'll take on this explanation. well, i mean there are a number of military re, such as have put out and let say counter arguments to this. and the most prominent one or the one that i agree with the most, as that israel at the moment as trying to effectively take out what a perceived of serious capability, both defense and offense, syria is working on a precision missile program on a suicide drawing mission and of course, iran is helping with technology. so for israel, the important thing for them is to take out the underground development centers in
12:21 pm
damascus, monsieur and aleppo. and that's what they're trying to do. but they can't do it effectively without actually sending poor planes into syria. so what they've been doing is trying to create a whole and syrian as a funds so that they can actually send warplanes in syria target those development center. so, you know, this says it's an act of war uh, like to play. it's an act of aggression that has been completely ignored by the so called international community. so this is about to ask you, has the been, any reaction is whole from the international community to these that strikes? no, none whatsoever. i mean, there is always a reaction, obviously from russia and from other countries, but from the u. s. u. k. e u. member states. no, there is rarely any reaction. let alone any condemnation is ro, from their perspective, can do what at once provided. they can excuse that with this as the say,
12:22 pm
the self defense pretext. you expect any prominence organizations to work toward stopping these rates from happening. oh, absolutely, no. i mean, look, israel has acted with impunity and palestine and, and syria and palestine for decades. the, you know, we see now even with the war in ukraine is, is exposed to be nothing more than an extension of us u. k. in french power. so therefore, there is great, there is going to be no condemnation and they're all going to be no initiative to prevent israel attacking syria as it has been doing. except of course, they will be retaliation from within the resistance access will given as well as ties to the us. do you think america's military presence in syria has affected as well as activities in the region? that's a good question. i think there is a degree of collaboration between the united states. they illegal occupies of
12:23 pm
theory and territory, particularly for example, at the l ton of space on the borders with jordan. israel, i think this year has fired missiles from alterna for fall. so therefore the u. s is complicit with a israeli aggression and there's ready war crimes against the serial people. so that's in your opinion. what can be done to stop such attacks? well, i mean, i think another reason that you're seeing an escalation in these attacks is they are very recent unification of all the palestinian resistance groups, including the visit from us to damascus itself. and a discussion with president aside and jazz. you had the unification meeting, which brought together all of the palestinian resistance factions. and so now you have, as i mentioned, a unified from against israel. and i think what is important is that after the 1st
12:24 pm
2 strikes against syria, by israel, we saw an escalation in the resistance activity in los and gen and they occupied territories. so i think what you're going to say now is not necessarily retaliation from syria, but you will see retaliation against israel and against that's less behavior by members of the resistance access to bailey. many thanks for speaking to us today, we speak and even as a 1000000000, independent journalist spaced in damascus between afar says new government is to focus on securing the west african country, which has been ravaged by the hardest violence. early this month. president abraham, a tray or a seat power from lieutenant colonel paul henry sunday. oh, go to me. but who later like to tojo of the countries new prime minister has said the nation remains on a will 1st thing and called on locals to contribute to stabilization. we spoke to
12:25 pm
low calls on the streets of bettina fast capital to gauge their opinion. we expect the government will be terrorism. we're going to trust them. there is a need for unity with the president who knows the battle ground, who says he's going to fight until his last breath. we trust him and we're going to support him. we need to widen our cooperation to look for other partners. not having the chain and we loved the path, our prime minister has chosen. we will end this miserable situation. the decision to look for other partners is one of survival. because for a long time, france was our only partner. many of our folks passed away, but france didn't help us away. i believe that this prime minister will combat terrorism. there is no freedom if we have terrorists controlling our country, security for the priority of the government prime minister upholstery that kyla would not clear because the security situation was bought that me by organize at
