ah, a a u. s. voters here for the key mid term elections labeling the economy and domestic issues of their talk concerns about those washington birds . the latest multi $1000000.00 aid package to ukraine. pakistan sees a 4th consecutive day of protest after an assassination attempt on former prime minister in brent pond. as russia becomes your deli is top oil supplier and b as foreign minister is on a visit to moscow to further boost bilateral relations and demonstrators. while the streets have gone as capital demanding the president's resignation and opposing

negotiations with the i a math, that's a mid rising inflation and a weakening, currently in the country. ah, from mosque out of the world. this is our t international. i'm rachel blevins, and these are the top stories this hour. more than 42000000 americans have cast early ballots ahead of tuesday, mid term elections, as us citizens prepared to determine the next makeup of the countries congress. we asked the public about the main issues impacting their voting decisions, always drives everything. i think that that is probably the factor that most directly influences people's day to day lives. so definitely a prominent decision in voting. i think the economy is an issue, but i think abortion is a huge issue, especially in this city. i think the economy is definitely a big issue right now. i think a lot of people will be motivated, motivated by it,

but i don't think the economy is like the biggest issue that's happening in our society right now. well, one you could take a look at the condition of everything, the jobs, the unemployment, people are struggling. i can't even get so security and the benefits that they offered me when i was paying taxes. i don't get. so there are hundreds of thousands of people that are really crushed under false economy. according to recent polls, 79 percent of americans say their voting decision will be driven by economic issues, naming domestic problems as their biggest concern. while many democratic politicians and government choose to focus on foreign affairs crane ukraine, ukraine, united states will never, never, never recognize russia's claims on the ukraine. we demonstrated the united states commitment to the government and to the people of ukraine. pla, crana in washington. it's all ukraine, ukraine, ukraine, 7 days

a week, 24 hours a day. and it's not just costing time. it's also costing money over $18000000000.00 already spent. no surprise that with washington's big names, all focus overseas, many americans are feeling left behind. it seems ukraine 1st america last, according to the latest polls, at least when it comes to the issues that americans are concerned about. ukraine is nowhere near the top of the list. america's working families are getting crushed by inflation. the high gas prices are squeezing them dry, the cost of living keeps going up and up. mortgages are also rising. but yet the government of the united states continues writing checks to kia with prices, surgeon and american. struggling to keep up. the federal reserve takes a bold step to chain what seems like relentless inflation and raises interest rates by 3 quarters of a percentage point. it's biggest hike in nearly 3 decades. food prices, up,

13 percent rent up more than 6 percent. if you're in the market for a car, new or used, you're paying more about 9 percent more than this time. last year. we've never seen drastic actions like this under of janet yelling. we never saw this on november, nancy, or even alan greens, when you actually go back to the early 19 eighties under paul volcker. and i think this says a lot about not just how high inflation is, but how stubborn it raytheon and other military contractors are making a killing. but the american people are suffering. is anyone now shocked that the public is fuming? is i'm getting my money to ukraine. i have every way disrespect to you because you're the 1000 equation with 80000000. craig, dan, i'm sorry, bill, in my mistake that you're a fraud. now some would say that heckling public officials is certainly not the way out, but what exactly does one do when the. 2 president himself seems to be somewhat out of touch with reality. not concerned about with i'm concerned about

with when the people you elected are focused on a country overseas, while things in your community, just keep getting worse and worse. you might think that it's time to be a little bit less polite. maybe it's time for some unconventional politics. the polls are now swinging to the right, regardless of any shouting at town halls. my republicans aren't exactly peace does either. and no one's expecting that if they come into office, they'll pull a complete 180 and reverse u. s. foreign policy in europe. ukraine in particular. but unlike their rivals, they seem to have at least picked up on the widespread public opposition to prolonging a foreign war. at the expense of the american people, nation building didn't work out too well in iraq, afghanistan, i don't think we should be doing it in ukraine. so targeted military assistance. one thing i favorite that, but yeah, this kind of nation building where it's less about our national security. it's more about nation building, i think is a problem with ukraine and everywhere. right now,

our country for our border is out of control human traffic that we have in place gas prices out of control. i mean, that's our time with now. such words from republicans have sent the democrats into a tizzy. joe biden is now talking about nuclear arm again and saying he's not interested in any talk of the escalation or negotiation. biden is declaring roughly half the electorate to be here, redeemable right wing extremists, and he's also taken actions to cause an energy crisis. that is certainly not unrelated to u. s. foreign policy. now it's little wonder that even for some long time democrats, this is all gotten to be a little bit much. now i believe in a government that's of the people by the people and for the people. unfortunately, today's democratic party does not. instead it stands for a government that is of by and for the powerful elite. now in the mid term

elections, americans don't vote for a president. they vote for representatives in the house and the senate. but these mid term elections are turning into a referendum on one man, a man who is not on the ballot, but does live in the white house. and so while biting goes on with his democracy is at stake. montrose, it looks like a lot of americans are just not thrilled with his performance, and they may be recalling a few things that his predecessors sad about america 1st failed. martin r t. new york, former republican senator richard black believes and inflation is the main reason for people's discontent with the government. it doesn't matter where the earth will get risen when you see him see the price is good morning and so we, roger the word geisha. and some of these are just for you is,

was going to want to lash in to change whoever's in our life is back to every doesn't matter which one of the you're in the wealthy, the very wealthy they're not connected with such as far as getting some words for, for the great little great working classes and it's going to be summer greater and greater problem in the coming year. also. meanwhile, moscow has once again been accused of interfering in u. s. elections. speculation is swirling in western media that russia is allegedly using bots to target democratic mid term candidates. here is some reaction to those allegations from the us. with

a luminous auction. you know what this means aaron might say, is activated to take ripples of russian interference and turned it upside down into narratives that oppose america been aware of russian interference by employee and it's all fake. they must really love him in moscow. as a recent campaign events, i ags republican tom marino's key. if the bill he sponsored to designate russia a state sponsor of terrorism would abra gates, the prospect of any future diplomatic relations with russia. he replied by accusing me of working for the russian government. western media has been flooded with headlines describing russian bots and trolls for the vote was some analysts even alleging that russian actors are attempting to undermine support for democratic candidates. the u. s. cyber security and infrastructure security agency has also jumped on the bandwagon saying that china, iran and russia may all seem to interfere with the u. s. democratic process. we

discussed the issue with journalist daniela's, r, who says the american public doesn't mind to the government's point games as become a ritual of american politics or liberal american politics. let things go wrong, blame it on russia. it's never the fault of the democratic party. joe biden is doing a great job. and if american voters disagree, the only possible explanation is that it's due to the kremlin interference. i mean, it's gotten, gotten ridiculous. totally silly. no one believes this any more. that the card has been over played and i think that democrats are worried because they very well may be facing a real blood back tomorrow. protests have raged across pakistan for 4 consecutive days after an assassination attempt on former prime minister and maria calling last week. this comes as the country supreme court ordered police to investigate the shooting. a local journalist gave us the details. after 4 days when

followed by mr. emmett on composite acting visit, i bought them. he was leaning the lat long back towards capitelli slammer brought to bed. the supreme court of pakistan has ordered the police sieve of the largest progress off one job. we just had a case against the attack as with in front default ops. in the meanwhile, in 4 days, the protested and support us up with, i'm con. they protested across the country on major cities. he went today and they were at old streets. there was anger that they were at had food, i guess the government and the military or body in his go. he will take revenge for him on kong. it doesn't matter of the march continue. serrano you film on calling to see or not all children will answer their houses and apply them like they did it with so many more will you kill. how many more will you burn alive? we are here coming, kill us. we will die for our country. we will step forward for him. ron con,

we will march for him. run con audio. man. i want to warn all federal institutions and the government stop this one day. you will have to answer for this. they will be winding the rest of the port please. man suspects one is the primary, so one is the i into there. melissa. not that he's be hot. see that out of me off he said had implant cameras are raising serious questioning in his press conference yesterday when he was asking the judicial system. 40 justice. so the, today, the supreme court has ordered the case must be the district we've been burnt before . i've been long march will, again stalked from of a 0, but i'm posted and it will go to the 1st law. and then it will come back to islamabad in 2 weeks out, 3 weeks. so inbound counties recovering. he has been shifter to his home, but the other leaders, lovely pity there, david ludy brook s. and later in the convent joined them. i mean, the luck on our tv, it's slower,

but pakistan. russia has become india's top oil supplier overtaking the usual major ex borders like saudi arabia and the rock. the new trade figures emerged prior to the indian for mres visit to moscow, and monday for talks with his russian counterpart, doctor j. shank. ours to day trip seeks to expand cooperation between the countries during a period of key global challenges. energy is a major topic on the agenda, especially after the g 7 confirm plans to push for a price cap on russian oil. but new delhi and moscow share more than just energy, both their members of bricks and beyond economic and cultural partnerships. they are also, they also cooperate heavily in defense. recent polls also show a majority of indians. consider russia the country's most reliable partner, says new delhi games independence back in 1947 with defense relations with moscow.

also viewed as crucial by most the director of the united service institution of india. thing take says that new delhi is moving to boost relations with russia, which is always had a strong relationship with india. this is a very important visit taking place at a very, very critical juncture. we hope that the leadership of the 2 countries will discuss that each and the global security environment, particularly the secretion in ukraine. other areas of population would be energy sector terrorism, particularly the situation in afghanistan. they would also be a discussion on, you know, nuclear is, our relationship is really one of the, a structured partnership. right from the very beginning. anybody soviet union, india, and most of it started to program and i shall never,

it's been india. i think that russia is a part of strategy boxes of tensions on there are on the rise in west africa as anti government protest or rapid and gonna admit fuel in food prices hitting record highs. here's what people on the street had to say. i just have to hi, we asked barbara. we've lost copies out there book on by medicine. it worked out. ok, right. we have the most expensive a lot with this to. you know that by truth that this robert knew we all to come out and brute gotten in and have had enough. it has been set the managing of a nation. we have been land our resources, everything that we have has been misappropriated with appropriate the bio political elite. but that because you have seen that what should belong to the people has

been taken away from the people. we're not like, well we don't see that bread picked up. well, i queued with people out talking. we are looking under government, much with crowds, church, the streets to rally against the government's mismanagement. amid a worsening economic crisis, calling for the president's resignation, protesters also demanded an end to ongoing talks with the eye and math which the president sees as an opportunity to overcome the downturn amid clashes with his earlier pledge of no aid policy, winston tacky, i got nan broadcast journalists and the business news anchor says the i am, epsilon will not save the country from a full one recession. currently the gunner's economy has so faced significantly sees the early this year i was trained to to there's been a plunging plant in the country to

a full blown economic recession. inflation rose from tier 2.9 percent in january to 27.2 percent in september. and some of the analysts who believe the actual level is more than twice or fishery, possibly as high as 98 percent, our debt level has increased so astronomically compared to 2022 to one. and for that reason, our inability to meet our debt repayment at lighthouse brought a lot of pressure on the economy, the delicious possibly damn, if will give us a boost, but it will not basically take away what we need to do in the country domestically by reviving our domestic industries and companies and also for sooner another quarter. western media has slammed the u. garner tanzania, joint crude oil pipeline project, which could relieve the impact of the energy crisis on africa with the u,

accusing uganda and tanzania of human rights violations and climate pollution. now at the pipeline at around 1500 kilometers long would help utilize uganda as massive oil reserves and also supply other countries through the port in neighboring tanza, near helping to return oil prices in the region to stable levels. back in september, the european parliament voted to issue a resolution officially condemning uganda and tanza nears parking. a backlash in the countries which accused the ear. i've been wanting double standards and quote, energy afford high. as a result, the european parliament re thought its approach and overturned as previous decision green lining the project. we spoke earlier, she were a journalist from the exchange newspaper, who says that the pipeline can benefit parties. but the e. u doesn't want to have a constructive dialogue due to its own business interest. and the epithet to me

means it is a deli bibs or mission of attention validation, but also supports when it comes to energy ambitions in the developing colonies, i find it to be a month of business in the matter of economy monopoly because we all know that one of the most biggest import that africa, but also really in this case because on oil and if you got in touch with me, i would bring the dr. paypal and projects on board and re functioning well. we'll see that number dwindling and if that number dwindle will could see now it has to be coming even you gotta need all the stuff to look at. so becoming independent and i think it's time right now for their york can unit itself to have a kind of composition with africa on proper ways. going how we can explore fossil

fuels, but also sustainably transferred from that standpoint to clean energy. the future doesn't lie in fossil fuels. that's the main message from the head of the united nations climate change conference which opened yesterday. i spoke to a local correspondent for the latest compton to 7 is actually under way here in sherman chic, egypt. we're more than $190.00 countries are attending the conference of parties. but the continent of africa is having a hard push for the developed countries to give the $100000000000.00 which they had promised to give to african countries, especially to fight climate. and adapt to climate change and mitigation measures, especially in a transfer of technology capacity building and a more other issues which will have helped african countries to fight climate change. also the president of egypt, other fertile cc. her spoke today and called for more action on climate change,

executive director of the pan african climate justice alliance says that western states are playing a game of musical chairs with their african counterparts when it comes to climate change. the point here is, are both implementation of the commitment and that's why we was saying this operable implementation by north apartments. we could the admin fee after the mandate in glasgow. the mandate a says copenhagen, i've never met you. what we are saying is as long as we are not to agree, this would be feed as long as we are we are we. 6 trying we are playing. i would never tv in this book. this will be late. and unless game of new scotty out. come here. come this. yeah, they got my decision that yes, we got the i did see that. yeah. that next. yeah,

i need to midway. tax is sending us that we are, we are missing the dipping point. we didn't mean to be cd us, odd that future generations when dad to vin, hastily these people, the lead us who are here. but he said that they are taking action. what is that? it's not the guy doing the u. s. as willing to help central asian countries, particularly church men, us that would benefit from anti russian sanchez, us staple mcdonald loo, dangle the carrot in front of journalists and a press briefing in the countries capital. here's an audiotape of the speech. we will be happy to work with the trickling government. it's your businesses to help them benefit from these sections. we're pos. the white house had previously announced a financial aid package for central. that's just by washington being a long standing critic of turkmenistan authorities, us official reports mark central asia as an autocratic state,

with eliminated government opportunities. this department has also released statements accusing the country of committing crimes, including force, labor and torture. we spoke to nelson, wong, vice chairman of the shanghai center for international studies, who said locals would not accept the us driving a wedge between turkmenistan and its historic allies. the sanctions, the u. s. has being taking against russia. most of them are not actually taking good effect as they have expected. a top official, donald new from the state department is visiting the minister. specs on and cause i've done. it is natural for russia to be on the alert about what the u. s. is doing in the neighboring countries for the us. that is a country so far away from a gun from eurasia when they want to come and expect to establish

a closer relationship. let's see what we have to offer all the table. all right, if it is a for trying to sabotage the, the local government or to destroy or to home, the relationship these countries with china and russia. and i don't think it's going to work because the people won't welcome that. and i don't think that china, russia what sit here and do nothing either. the french finance minister, bruno america, has a lash out at a multi $1000000000.00 u. s. investment and it's clean energy companies saying the move makes european companies less competitive with the overseas firms. the official even threatened to me, washington in the world trade organizations court some large foreign companies that

wanted to set up in europe. and now hesitating between european and american sites on calling for united, strong and coordinated response from the e. u to our american allies. either they will be resolved there, and we hope they will. that's why we have the task force to discuss this. or we will have go to the w t o and in visits. retaliatory measures the move called the inflation reduction act, create tax preferences for american green companies, giving them significant investments worth tens of billions of dollars, as well as tax credits for components produced in u. s. factories which could learn potential investors and businesses away from europe. but it's not only the u. s. clean energy firms that could stand to benefit from the global crisis. it's also the fossil fuel firms. so let's take a closer look at the profits of us oil producers who benefited from soaring prices and making over $200000000000.00 since the start of the war and ukraine and the

ensuing sanctions on russia. this is twice the amount compared to the same period last year, according to experts. the cash flow is a record breaking them out for the oil firms. now the ease concerns are not unfounded. as the u. s. government subsidies in firms higher earnings create better conditions for doing business in the us. and as you can see on this screen, natural gas prices in the european union ur over 4 times higher than in the united states and europe. solar tricity prices are almost twice as much as in the u. s. university. financial and banking professor richard warner says the response to american attempts to undermine you. business is expected. it is high time. it is long overdue because essentially the u. s. has been acting very much against the interest of its allies in europe. and this is almost been the fisher policy to

bring down the european economy. the u. s. has been exploiting its allies for its own benefit. and at the moment it seems to be one of the duration is through the u . s. dollar, which has been crumbling and ensure that the u. s. to remain strong. so by knocking down the european economy, the euro has been holding and that has boosted us dollar. the u. s. has been the biggest beneficiary of all the sanctions imposed on russia since 2014 already. ready it was that perhaps even more b as in those days, because these were very, very one sided sanctions on europe, while american companies didn't have those sanctions. and so german companies were told, no, you can't deal with russia. exports, well, anything agricultural products or anything else. and they stopped and then american company stepped right and then supplied the same thing to russia. the european

leaders should break free from that and admit that the sanctions are clearly not working. and that's all for now. be sure to check out our t dot com for all the latest breaking news and updates. we'll see right back here at the top of the hour. ah. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy confrontation, let it be an arms race. he's on a very dramatic development. only personally, i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very critical. time time to sit down and talk. ah ah ah

ah, lisa canter, russian state little narrative style does on the most landscape. div us. mm hm. then i can also some, some of music within the 55 with this been okay. so 92000 speedy. when else was about this, even with we will van in the european union, the kremlin media machine, the state on crush us flooding and split ortiz food next. even our video agency, roughly all band on youtube said with a quick question, did you say electricity with

sulu huh. the supreme court of the united states is there session with rulings on a 2 of the most controversial issues in america, gun ownership, and abortion rights. however, were the decisions by the highest court in the land contradictory. while the case of god, it took away the rights of a state to decide the legislation regarding concealed carrying a firearms. but in regards to abortion, said, it was a decision which should be left to the states. why the difference in today's a 1st edition of that $360.00 view, we're going to look at the issue of abortion rights here in america, with the latest ruling reversing, rover.
