michael finance, national z m a a park that i'm here today with our delegation to review of cooperation to see how we can take it forward to create a long term sustainable basis auto sales. most of all russia and india focus on energy stability, as well as a multi poll approach to global security as moscow host. cindy, as far as with americans, take the polls, the crucial mid term elections with the countries economic crisis. the main concern for many well cortex play, the ruling democrats are more worried about fishing out the big bulk you crane. last time, washington on

b. e. you accuse each other of profiteering from the global energy crisis. we investigate how us protectionism is alienating some of its allies in europe and asia with very welcome at 6 pm here in moscow. and this is all the international with the very latest world news update is get to happy with it this out. now india is foreign minister, has called for close the cooperation with russia and make what he calls a stressful situation on energy markets. ortiz donald court and was at the ministers media conference in moscow. what do you see as the intent of the west, specifically the united states in pressuring india for these relations? what stance will india take in the future towards russia as a result of this pressure? the fact that i'm here today with a delegation to review our co operation, to see how we can take it forward to korea, to long term sustainable bases,

i think saves most of all. i think you can see the obvious in christian commitment . i would that in keeping that relationship strong and she did that clip we just saw was the indian foreign minister's response to a question that i was lucky enough to ask at the press conference that came after his meeting with russian foreign minister, sir gay, laugh rav i wanted to know what india was planning to do in the face of increasing western pressure for its friendly relations with russia. and if new delhi would, i join in on the western calls for a price kept on russian oil exports. but based on the indian foreign minister's response, it looks like india is not really buying into that. he reiterated that russia and india have long, had very close relations. and that new delhi relies on moscow to provide the indian people with affordable energy. as regards to the, you know, the or the oil supply issue and all that is that is

a oven. first of all, that is a stress on the energy markets. it is odd fundamental obligation to ensure that the indian consumer has the best possible access on the most advantageous terms to international market. on induct respect. ah, quite honestly, we have seen that a d. indian rashad relationship has worked to advantage. now we also heard from the russian foreign minister, circ a laugh, rob, who said that the talks were very successful. he said that he talked a bit about plans on the russian side to provide india with clean atomic energy, as well as plans to increase the trade volume between the 2 countries in the future . let's take a listen. we put, if we have welcome to the positive dynamics of our bilateral trade. by september, the turnover had increased more than 130 percent. the provision of a new site for the construction of very russian designed nuclear power plant will allow india to provide clean,

unsafe energy in the future. we discussed in detail the state of the prospects for military technical cooperation, including the joint production of modern types of weapons. so it looks like what foreign minister circ, a live, rob, set about these talks about them being successful was correct. and the decades long friendly relations that russia and india have enjoyed will continue to persevere. despite the fact that around the world, there's quite a tense geopolitical landscape right now. earlier we spoke to donna mclean, gil manila based geopolitical analyst, and ortho, he said, india's cooperation with moscow has had a positive impact when economy as access to russian oil has helped the growth the visits objectives are multi pronged and multi dimensional and compasses politics, economics and defense in the context of bilateral ties, regional affairs, and the overarching security architecture of the international system. now, india and russia continuously engage in a series of multilateral institutions. the g 20 bricks,

s c o r i c has discussion will also incorporate the enhancement of india, russia partnership in the context of the frameworks defective the address a series of issues and possibly contribution towards the transitioning, multi polar international order, particularly in the eastern hemisphere. so this is what we can see as a projection of the time tested as a practical partnership between india and russia. there are 2 things that we have to understand in terms of any perspectives. one is that india is a rising race, power, and energies. if you will, the continuous rise of any state. hence, it is necessary for india to make sure that it's been changed, unhampered supply of oil, oil at a price that is a force fitting for its growing demand. and i do not think that it should be in anyone's interest to constrain the growth of a state that has the capacity to contribute positively towards the international

system. second, india is well aware of its responsibilities. the government's primary responsibility is to its people and to the overarching national interests and security interests. a one of the most challenging a geopolitical neighborhood for india is faced with it will have to balance this of course, and we could definitely see more proactive cooperation with india, russia, particularly the energy sphere as well as the midterm elections in the united states. guess on the way biden's public approval rating plummets through in their historic low. as, according to a poll conducted on the eve, being a to democrat concerns that they will lose their majority and co chris, while the election could see around a 3rd of us, congressional senators voted out on in the lower parliamentary chamber, the house of representatives, all 435 seats are on the ballot. new governance for 36 states will also be chosen on tuesday, as well as new secretaries of state who are responsible for further elections.

major domestic issues, such as abortion, access on the gun and voter right. so very much in focus o, many us media have been echoing biden's claims that us democracy is at risk fronting face. that republicans could take control of congress and drawing parallels with a possible red wave that says u. s. citizens a seem not to care about such concerns. when asked, what motivates that vote is most americans say domestic problems are that top concern in the election battle always drives everything i think about 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 is 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 ethan polls 79 percent of americans say that voting decisions will be driven by economic issues. naming domestic problems is the biggest concern. however, the white house and democrats run congress seem to have different priorities as they've heinz' out another full $100000000.00 in 8 to ukraine, last on top of billions, already sent. 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. club ha, 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 focused 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 tame 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 greenspan. you actually to 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 raytheon another military contractors are making a killing. but the american people are suffering. is anyone now shocked that the public is fuming? it's, i'm getting my money to ukraine. i have every way, disrespect to you because you're the 1000 equation with 80000000. great data. i'm sorry, bill, in my mistake that you are a fraud. now some would say that heckling public officials is certainly not the way out, but what exactly does one do when the president himself seems to be somewhat out of touch with reality? how 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 and 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. our country for our borders had

a control human trafficking that know we have inflation, gas prices out of control. i mean, that's our 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 your 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. so while biting goes on with his democracy is at stake mantra, 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 mop and artsy new york. well, during the recent publicity saw by them was had called and asked if washington is ready to negotiate with russia and help. and the ukraine conflict will be with president question off the questions and see people demanding answers were escorted out of the media events. because and i hope. 7 you don't see a thought about what the

room is a joy different. why would you happen? it's close to to just in us day departments. consultants, john city lead is high, says that despite concern ukraine, the american public still put his own needs. first, a most americans are being pulled as being concerned, primarily about inflation hikes and gasoline prices. runaway crime illegal aliens and the rest of the ukraine war does not register very high for most americans because they're concerned about the wrong well being and economic hardship right now. i believe most americans are still very concerned about the well being of the ukrainian peoples, but ultimately every country and every citizen is going to be concerned with his own well being. first, the republican party is going to come in with

a very robust agenda that will be promoting economic growth. i think we'll see a number of issues that also help provide freakonomics relief for every day americans because they're entering a period of great anxiety. and i think the republican party will look to see how we best alleviate that anxiety by promoting job growth, economic growth, energy production, safety for our citizens and ceiling. the border and providing for control of our sovereign territory as the united states of america was a big day in the united states with the mid terms that taking place. let's discuss it with political commentator and talk to host steve most big steve. many thanks for joining us on the program. it's lovely to see so that a lot of talk of a potential read wave isn't there. and while this is a presidential election, some analysts say that jo biden's presidency is essentially at stake. should the republican serge back to power and congress? what's your take on the ramifications of the? well, 1st of all, i mean, i don't believe that the senate is

a sure thing. i'd like to believe it's a sure thing. i hope it's a sure thing, but it's going to be very, very close. and we may not know for several days, we may not know until until december, if it comes down to georgia. because in georgia, the race between war not the incumbent and the republican herschel walker, you have to get a majority. and if neither one gets the majority, there's a 3rd candidate involved. they'll have to have a run off in december. so we may not know who controls the senate until after that run off in december. however, having said that, i think that i think the republicans have done a good chance of gaining control of both chambers that the house and the senate. i think it means that you're buying the lame duck and you know, it's their own wall. it's hid, don't fall. first of all, their agenda has been horrific. they keep talking, they keep denying that people are suffering, they keep pulling it and they've been doing that right along. joe biden has been

doing that right. a lot joe biden stood in pennsylvania the other day at a senate rally for the democratic candidate and said, no more drilling of oil, no more drilling, no more, no more racking. now that's, that's the death wish doesn't always say the right thing in the white house always has to walk it back. so while people are worried about inflation, cost of living in crime, the democrats have been talking about abortion. and joining up this big issue, we have to save democracy because if the republicans, when it's the end of democracy and barack obama was involved in that too, that's terrific kind of campaigning. and the american public's not buying that. you know, some of the fight didn't critics, so let's, let's face it right now. the quote to see with been speculating that we could potentially end up being in paged if the republicans take a congress, is that the realistic lawyer? well, it depends. if the republicans want to go there liter wants to go there, there,

there is talk of accountability of holding this administration responsible for some of the things they've done. the withdrawal from afghanistan being one. and i think there's a lot of questions between involving hunter, by the president son and the president himself. what did the president know about hunter's dealings? when did he know what he's denied? knowing anything, there's evidence to the contrary. i think if they want to in peach, joe biden, in the house, they can impeach him. they will never get a conviction in the senate, just like donald trump was in peach twice by nancy pelosi and the democrats. and they never got a conviction in the senate either and the lead up to them, it tends post showing that most americans are less worried about the economic sense you in a situation on the home front. so how does foreign policy, including the u. s. support ukraine play into a mess right now to be perfectly honest with you. i don't think people are thinking about foreign policy at all. i don't think, i mean, it might be on the minds of, of some ukrainian americans or, you know, people who have come here from, from,

from ukraine or, or from russia or whatever. but i don't think the average american is thinking of foreign policy at all in any way, shape or form. i think they should be thinking about our military and, and the political correctness that is taken over everything in this country, including indoctrinating our children at a young age with transgender issues and, and that then and equity and whiteness and critical race theory that is also infiltrated every area of society including the military, but as far as foreign policy in the war and ukraine, i really don't think that's on the minds of the voters right now. it all. many thanks for joining about the program, steve malls by political commentator and talk. so hosts really appreciate your thoughts. thank you. now as a western energy market slum permits, the global power twice in the us and europe are increasingly criticizing each other . if i caching in on financial turmoil,

the french president has accused american companies of profiteering stressing, but europe deserves a fair price for natural gas. washington has hit back, claiming european firms are the ones making all the money from the lucrative l. n. g trade. what's happening is the companies that hold those long term contracts with u. s. l n g producers. they're marking that up and earning that margin in the european market. it's not the u. s. l n g company. it's basically european, headquartered international oil companies and traders. remember when you, as president joe biden came here to europe, back in march to plotted the european union, sanctioning russia, cutting off its own russian energy source of the process. and promised to help europe replace that source with american energy. well, apparently european leaders didn't read the fine print or fully consider the implications of what they were signing on to, which was basically european dependence on american energy and whatever price they want to set that at the u. s. government is now denying responsibility for the high

gas prices of their exports, flaming european energy company markups, and now fed up european officials want to speak to the manager, but don't really seem to know who that is. maybe it's uncle sam, maybe in the world trade organization. here are the french and german finance ministers venting their frustrations. we must react fast. i'm calling for a united, strong and coordinated response from the e. u to our american allies. there is a risk of a major shock for french and european industry 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 envisage retaliatory measures. i have not been assured that the american side has completely crossed. how great all concerns about the consequences all in everyone's interest. we will not enter a tit for tat, but raw the strength from the sources of wealth and growth together. so even trying to figure out whether biden's inflation reduction act, which has a buy america component to the detriment of european cars and gives tax and energy incentives to companies to the disadvantage of any that might still want to remain

in europe. and deal is skyrocketing energy prices while they're trying to figure out whether that violates global trade rules. japan is also upset that americans could be dis, incentivized from buying jap. he's cars me while the u. s. is busy dodging the very same rules as egging on its allies to a dot. taking a careful step back from the cliff after allies have taken a flying leap right off it. earlier this week, us ship maker and a video said, for example, that it has a noun shift, writing for the chinese market that will meet the new u. s. export controls, which are meant to essentially blocking china economically. washington's trying to get allies, japan, and you countries like the netherlands, for example, to follow these new export rules in an effort to economically blockade china. here's what the chinese foreign ministry said about those efforts. this is not the

way an open and honest major country would act. the world sees clearly what the u. s. is up to any one who tries to block others way will only have his own path blocked. so the u. s. isn't really playing by its own rules that it's imposing on allies or would like to when it comes to china, or when it comes to russia, either the u. s. is already refused to impose a low price cap on russian oil, which the you wanted for fear of deregulating, the global energy market even more than it already has been. and now we're learning from the western press that the state department and us treasury have been asking us banks to maintain services and ties for certain key russian companies like gas prom or russian fertilizer producing companies. for example, remember how zalinski top economic aid was demanding that u. s. bank stop doing business with russian companies, or else he would see prosecution of their executives for war crimes? well, it looks like he's not going to be able to clean up wall street after all,

what it seems like here is that zalinski, you allies and a whole lot of other people are just being led down the garden path and now to russia don't yet. we're public where at least 2 civilians are being killed and tim will wound it off to ukrainian for was his shelves. civilian areas of the capital. according to local officials who say nato supplied, artillery was used in the attack by key f military. on monday 3 civilians, including a child, was killed by ukrainian shelling with 7 more wounded. we had from some of the locals who came on the fire boot dearest, that isn't the 1st shelf fell and then the 2nd land directly under roof at the neighbouring house. we wanted to run there to help it, and then 3 more chas landed. we huddled in the corner were afraid to even breathe than the roof began to burn, and all the vendors blew out for 2 years or will. we woke up when the 1st explosion occurred, then there was a 2nd in a fire broke out blown, we counted,

a total of 5 hits was up. we jumped out and pulled the elderly man next door from his house. he is 85 years old and was lucky to be alive. cut us through lonely papa when the korean troops fired the heed. the houses during the shelling were prayed at home and wait for everything to come to an end. what else could we do on the old people in small children lived here? from amazon, you're saying in the don't, yes. for public local official say, russian forces have taken full control of don yet scamp pause, which had been partially on the ukrainian military control since 2015 of a more updates on this story and everything else does it get check our website r t dot com will be back at the top of that ah ah

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 is on offense. very dramatic development only personally and getting to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very difficult, time time to sit down and talk a

little, you know, one, no, no, no. hon. a joke. no, no. what all more shrill than what they should end up unit 73. 1 was a unique organization in the history of the world. what they were trying to do was to simply do nothing short and build the most powerful and most deadly biological weapons program that the world had ever known. real took. but it will show up enough keel to the new new

model to model this you want to do and i got the sale on monday, i wish enough about julie who i know he didn't more than a journalist, i had a political mother and all you nice to do want to on this she my new on a on all i gave the you know, put them out to give us ah, the eradication of love ism was also conceived by hitler who formed the general

plan ost for the colonization and german ization of eastern europe, the plan involved about 80 percent been killed, relocated a busy you really? yes. give us proceed. you mean your story up when you my appointment? i be using him. yes. covers me was threatening yet. seller asks the unions into a house which is 3. did a good yeah. my yes, that you up nice. lovely. the alleged ninette schedule. so that was the gate mission much already know. basically you see me emotionally say with nationals, but again, you seriously and then you sure will change plans get us, but it'll be really changes williams co especially with a sub get the french the upgrade to being years in. yeah, i could only just just lay on screwing. don't just hear nobody there. i'm not sure . but i took grades of pretty my purse that i need is nashika data, gross legal finance. can you just knew not to skip practicable rios, with the more still we're still doing shape dominion. great and see by like

a push that with those let least anybody in y'all's number was made. somebody bought g scheme out a little apple or something about sped methods. no, you said it leaked on but we just never would you, jim. you mean you on you them, bruce marshall them. i wish lunch can yours. when do you read this as a skis? but you do it unfortunately, because with just on the phone need see, is for be done, goes to can do it to new coin without the problem. so, so the contradiction point says the eyes of a they can sure signs without problem or double. so let me kiss to, so can i the issue anyway, it's thinking it's crazy in the form with me it should i need for the.
