as the us government refuses to faded out of the largest us bank more than $50000000000.00 in market value. a global scale around to the plan to issue some $6000000.00 worth of the cost corporation with value ravia. this is with i welcome to live from las vegas, just gone. i am as always, it's great to have you with us. i'm right, i'm on. let's take a look at those top stories. this. our tony is either using thing as a says in a speech. so paula, but that it was only recently in the country's history. when it was colin lies. i'm bullied by foreign powers. but now the nation has the ability to complete insurance

sovereignty. i'm protect it. national interests, gym, valuable. in modern times, china was reduced a semi colonial semi feudal society suffering from brewing by foreign powers. it was rife with conflict. it's people were subjected to great pain. we must further advance our modernization drive in terms of national defense and cern china smelter into great wolf steel. it effectively protects our national sovereignty, security and development interests. we should strive to advance the one country to systems policy and achieve national unification or issue. but surely they know us, we hear the key political event called the 2 sessions, so it has since several fight appointments for the government. g. himself made history as the country's 1st father to be elected for a 3rd consecutive term. a new defense mercer was chosen as well, li shampoo,

who has been on a u. a sanction since 2018 for buying murphy whitman from russia. the chinese person also emphasized that his country is focused on global multilateralism as a main principal. oh, it's new political course. curry vivian. we should hold high the banner of beast, development corporation, and mutual benefit. we should always stand on the right side of history, just multilateralism and observe the common values of humanity. we should actively participate in the form and construction of a global governance system. promote an open economy and further advance a global development initiative and the global security initiative. oh oh, for allies of the dirt, republican rushes of wagner group has been spearheading an assault against a strong hold of ukrainian troops in the city of our 2 musk, also known as buck. what's the head of the russian military troops,

as the fighting has become more intense with keep sending reserve forces into the battle. the ball. a situation is difficult to very difficult. the enemy is cut throats fighting for every meter and the closer we are to the city center, the harder the battles you cranes throw an endless reserves. we are moving forward and will continue to move forward to doing better. we will not dishonor the glory of our russian weaponry. you prefer, i mean, the volcano to the says that russian forces are currently just a kilometer from the city center. the areas of, in a focus of intense fighting for months with the entrenched ukrainian troops now almost fully surrounded. a commander, one of the ukrainian units, has admitted that its military supply routes are being cut off by the inserting russian forces. but as a mere moisture motor motor,

it's hard to hold every building. there is a particular danger that the neck of the cauldron is no more than 4 kilometers. without gist x, there is neither a rotation nor a supply of ammunition. we understand, or maybe repeat of the balance of called the situation where the roads are cut off and an intentional withdrawal of troops can endanger during tire corner issue or will it should be in class persons. lansky has claimed there are preparations on the way for a counter offensive with truth being called out from the sample roger region to reinforce our to mosque and gives government has been demanding even more weaponry from western power to keep up its fight for the city. as eager as done of tells us how russia's advanced weapons have enabled its forces to gain significant ground against the ukrainian military. western countries have approved trans have to tranche of their weapons and equipment to ukraine. so russia has had to raise

stakes to some of russia's newest combat vehicle modifications are already here in the don bass, and they have already been tested. had their work has been proven on the battlefield quite a few times. ah, the vehicles tracks spew dirt on us as it storms pass towards the front line to cover infantry salt teams. it's how doesn't offer much protection, but what it lacks in armor, it makes up for in speed and fire power. ah ah.

it's designed to blitz the enemy, released the smoke bombs and disappear. the crew tells me this amphibious infantry fighting vehicle has already met its match in the dumbass. the proudly american bradley's from the most recent shipment are already here. when did still show others navarro, our new airborne combat vehicle. the b m. d 4 is an excellent machine. works like a dream. of course the caliber pleases me. it is good against large clusters of opponents and strongholds against light vehicles. and it's also good against bradley's. it has excellent speed and low fuel consumption. the machine has proven itself, especially on the front lines. it has a high rate of fire, the ability to shoot from close positions. we use the b, m, d every day, send greetings to our opponents and do not let them relax. moscow has been repeatedly calling on the west to stop military shipments. stop the escalation,

all russia will have to match it up a job. the west is called to inflict to military defeats on russia. they need to pump weapons into you crate, including those that can hit russian territories. president zalinski has publicly requested such weapons. we have strongly warned the west against providing that it is effectively waging a proxy war against russia using hands bodies and minds of ukrainian neo nazis. but long range weapons would drastically escalate the conflict. and i sincerely hope that the fi reasonable people in the west understand that this i, if v is only one example of russia's new weapons deployed to the war theater. brand new t 90 tanks lurk in the woodlands. drones, as sure in the skies, faster and more powerful missiles hit ukraine's infrastructure. d behind the lines . but the power of rushes biggest and most lethal weapon so far has only been

unleashed a drill site. i'm a gosh, darn of reporting from the dumbass r t. i saw sanchez out of europe. hundreds of people have taken to the streets over town in central germany to protest against sending weaponry to ukraine and to demand an end to the conflicts the produce is march through the bavarian town, waving flags and chanting. i'm see, was slogans. they held up private saying i am at peace with russia and ukraine and weapons do not bring peace. germany has repeatedly provided murphy and him as her 8th grade students. a conflict interrupted last, germany and out 2 months ago that it would send a new package of military aid to keep the amount of 1000000000 euros. but still keith has been complaining about a lack of weaponry and has been demanding even more military assistance all to contribute to rachel. martin picks up the story. the ukraine foreign affairs

minister is lashing out at both the german government and the country citizens in a new interview with german media belts. dmitri caliban said that germany is still not sending ukraine enough weapons. i think germany could really help me with ammunition including artillery ammunition. we sat down with ukrainian representatives and the german alms industry. and the german industry in my presence asked the german government for one thing to sign contracts saying that they were ready to deliver. so the problem is with the government, so there's a total lack of appreciation here for the fact that already german chance or all i've shoals is going way out on a limb and risking blow back from germans by loading crane up with german weapons claim. i also took aim at german protesters, taking to the streets to demand peace, suggesting that by advocating against more weapons deliveries and favoring negotiations, they just want more ukrainians to be killed. he says,

except that shipping ever more weapons to ukraine clearly has not led to peace. instead it's ratcheted up the conflict. juergen taught in hoffer, a former german parliamentarian and arms control policy spokesman for the christian democratic party under former chancellor helmut kohl called the ukrainian foreign affairs ministers. comments outrageous on social media, he added that germans demanding peace, want to prevent exactly the kind of violence that cruel labour accuses them of inciting no country. the world has received as many gifts from germany as ukraine. what i don't approve of are the constant insults by the ukrainian leadership. the 2nd most corrupt country in europe is not our moral coach. recent does suggests why germany's politicians liked hood an offer could be growing more confident in speaking out publicly against continued escalation of the conflict. public opinion seems to be headed in the same direction in germany. 43 percent of germans. now

figure that what's going on in ukraine is really none of their business, and that's up 11 points from the previous survey according to a january. if so st. paul and 80 percent of germans told in january for is a survey that they want to conflict to and with negotiations and all that is just so far removed and disconnected from the western establishment. rhetoric calling for doing whatever it takes for ukraine to win on the battlefield. incomplete, reckless disregard for the ongoing loss of life on all sides. the longer all of this drags on. the big question now is how long the disconnect between western leaders and the people they're supposed to represent can actually hold economy update. now the us government, jose, silicon valley bank customers will get access to their cash. on monday, it was a largest bank collapse in the country since the 2008 financial crisis,

us treasury has refused to bail out the lender despite previously doing so for other financial institutions. during but courses reform says have been put in place, means that we're not going to do that again. but we are concerned to bet to passengers and are focused on trying to meet their needs. arising concerns about a domino effect for the financial sector. the top, full largest us bank lost more than $50000000000.00 in market value following the collapse of s v b. desperate clients have been line me up to withdrawal their father from our list of the california best s b, b, r. t's marina course river explains in detail what caused the bikes downfall it's make it work time for everyone associated with silicon valley. bank and busters are panicking. tech companies are panicking and experts here that i could

snowball into a new financial crisis, including for were us treasury secretary lawrence summers. it certainly is going to have very substantial consequences for silicon valley, for the economy of all venture. ah, sector which has been dynamic unless i the government is able to assure that this situation is worked through. the us government says it's on it with joe biden and the governor of california already discussing efforts to address the situation over the last 48 hours. i've been in touch with the highest levels of leadership at the white house in treasury. every one is working with federal deposit insurance corporation to stabilize the situation as quickly as possible to protect jobs, people's livelihoods, and the entire innovation ecosystem that has served as a tent pole for our economy. and if that doesn't work out,

maybe in mos can save the day since he's already suites it that these open to the idea of buying the bank. so what does s v be exactly? well, it was founded in the early eighty's and provided financing for almost half of us venture back technology and health care stops. it was one of the top commercial banks in the us, with $209000000000.00 in total assets. at the end of 2022. so what happened or s v b didn't expect the federal reserve to raise interest rates last year, which resulted in a losses for the company. that coupled with venture capital drying up and high foreign costs, proved to be the perfect storm s v b was forced to sell the entire bond portfolio, which resulted in a huge loss. and then they announced that they wanted to raise 2000000000 fresh from investors who said no thanks. the next say they're on on the bang happens and

$42000000000.00 were withdrawn, leaving them high and dry. good morning everyone. silicon valley bank is getting worse. customers trying to pull millions of dollars out. and kent online banking in mobile services, showing unavailable for some customers, stuck down 60 per cent per market. if the bank fails, it would be the 2nd largest bank failure in u. s. history. the ripple effects of the craft are being felt only at home. s a, b z u. k. subsidiary has been put into insolvency and the u. k. government is now urgently figuring out a plan to try and minimize the damage to some of the country's most promising tech firms. and all this comes after a cry for help from about 180 tech companies who sent a letter to you. kate chancellor, jeremy hans colin, him to intervene. the loss of deposits has the potential to cripple the sector and

set the ecosystem back 20 years when he businesses will be sent into involuntary liquidation overnight. this crisis will start on monday and so we call on you to prevent it now. and it's not us in the u. k. s will be had branches in various countries, including canada, china, germany, and israel. the concern is that the bank failure could wipe out stops around the world. in china, clients were being urged to stay calm and told that operations there are independent and stable in brazil, founders of startups with the 2 hundreds of millions of dollars. as soon as word got out of the imminent collapse bots, not every one managed to get their funds in time with a reported $10000000.00 up in the air. you know, who did managed to withdraw on the, in time as sleep these chief executive officer greg becker. he sold $3600000.00 of company stock less than 2 weeks before this all went down. another

interest. in fact, as the bees chief administrative officer was none other than the cfo, all the lehman brothers, you know, the largest bankruptcy falling in u. s. history, which has thought to have played a major role in the global financial crisis of 2008. yep. that one. so how did i get to this? well as sleepy, didn't even have a chief risk officer for almost a year. and when they finally replaced the old one, this january, the new one seemed more preoccupied in promoting every liberal calls out there, rather than focusing on the train right ahead. should our water cutter clear how severe the fall out will beat? turns out the majority of us to be deposits weren't even insured, which takes things to a whole other level. everyone is now on guard, hoping and likely praying that governments intervene and save them and themselves for that matter. because we all know by now how one banks collapse could lead. so

world wide economic rec. so let's just hope that whoever steering the solution here is not a crash test. dummy, raging cost, the executive director. so the 1st source, money was the s, b, b, the financial collapse will affect not only the us, but also nations across the world, including africa, african bank, especially in south africa, highly exposed, highly connected to the global market, to the extent that i saw connected the collapse of if b b is likely to affect african banks in quite a large way and africa in particular. so we cannot ignore that collapse that collapses, not just going to affect the americans more banks, we can, going to run more likely from monday going on. going to affect the european band, some asian banks and things of africa. and indeed some other african countries are connected to europe, asia,

and indeed the us itself. so africa will certainly be affected, not all economies in africa that exposed, but you can see the 1st countries that after the highly, highly, or it was the only country in 2008 to the 7 that was so much more effective than the rest of the continent we expect of africa to be on the watch in our frequent and she should begin to what will as a consequence of this, that quite frankly, the rest of the content they have to catch the cold. iran has announce a plan to issue billions of dollars worth of oil bonds. i want to mutually develop oil fields with former regional rival savvy ravia. that's off the iran and saudi arabia recently agreed to reestablish diplomatic relations in a deal broken by china that and all that it took definitely the recent development regarding the resumption of our ties with 3 odd will help develop the joint fields with our neighbors. we have proposed the development of these fields be done by

both countries that share the fields in the opec and opec plus meeting. we are very close approaches with saudi arabia, with regards to oil exports. fortunately, the decisions that have been made at opec and opec plus over the past few months, were all a result of joint deliberations between iran and saudi arabia. the petroleum industry has always been vulnerable to global developments. and now the recent rapprochement between iran and saudi arabia to opec members could fundamentally reshape the outlook for the oil market. besides bridging their political disputes, didn't want and re of are also expected to resolve their differences in the energy sector. a casing point is the disputed and garage gas field located in a disputed maritime area in the persian gulf, which has not yet been demarcated to iran is critical of kuwait and saudi arabia's exploitation of the field. saying iran also has a stake in the area. believe to have an estimated half a trillion cubic meters of proven gas reserves for energy hungry china, mediating between teheran and re off to improve ties between the states will help

ensure its energy security as the world's 2nd largest economy. beijing is heavily reliant on foreign oil and gas. figures show that more than 70 percent of the countries oil is imported. measuring has been a major buyer of iranian oil, even at the highest of the west's economic pressure against iran. it has also been saudi arabia's largest oil in puerto. it to mean on by the raining, saudi resumption of ties with increased chinese certainty regarding the oil market and improve its access to crude oil. the move will also increase the supply of oil from the persian gulf to the east, and this will reduce oil prices since china leads the market in terms of oil demand . when the u. s. crap, the 2015 iran nuclear deal with world powers. val to bring toronto crude sales to 0 . but this did not happen as a result of china and russia, continuing their business with iran against all odds. now china's latest move is

believed to offer both iran in saudi arabia, a host of new opportunities as to energy powers, use of to roddy r t t f run to the f and cons. and now one of nigeria is most prominent business. women who might as the african countries largest port system as decreed the problem of stereotypes in the workplace and called for greeted gender equality, r t correspondent balloon david. it's the story. help of my jewess, near little headed and swayed mediums. it's as it is, women. yes, very few of them take part in any political process. as these has been set up for the conscious level craft of development, the numbers every year keeps dwindling. right now, the chance house as a witness that father reduction in the number of women who were successfully elected the major challenges. i've been in such an increase in violence,
