rules in effect that means you can jump in anytime you want and i always appreciate let me go to alexander in london well the gambit is about to begin the waivers are being dropped may second to the gambit goes into play it seems to me a number of things are in play here it's the americanization of the global trade system specifically and in the in the petroleum markets here and it is very there's a lot of consequences here and essentially united states is saying we're going to suspend with free trade and you will trade whom with whom we wish or who we do not wish it is a gambit is very very dangerous and what happens if it doesn't work go ahead alexander well let me a lot of good points peter because i agree i mean first of all the united states is basically saying to all the countries of the world these you tube you can buy oil from the you cannot buy oil from when you were in for years upon years which may not be. your views by using the position that the dominant position we have through the reserve currency status of the dollar you will risk fines for your companies if you don't obey

alexander is a very you're just going to have a huge black market of oil and the prices are going to be very high and in the rain ians of oil have been experiencing these type of sanctions for a long time they have survived it and people will actually rally around their leaders and this is going to be a big flop what i worry about is that when it is a big flop what the u.s. will do then because they are determined determined to have force regime change in around and they don't have the tools to do it and what they're going to do is probably blow up the oil markets in the process and you know what it's a lose lose lose lose lose for everybody go ahead alex well i agree i mean where there is demand as the researcher in raining oil will there will be supply because of course as you correctly say all prices will rise and that he's going to incentivize all sorts of people to find ways of selling that all you want because they're going to be big profits and there are all sorts of people around the world it's be quite clear about this who are prepared to accept those sorts of risks and as y

first of all alexander had crew actually correct the. emphasis on the fact that this whole thing was taking place in front of the american public does nothing to address the actual concerns of the american public they were they could care less about russia good they want to know you know where the next meal's coming from and how their rent their mortgage paid to college tuition health care and the democrats are serving up still russia gate moeller and all that i think that it's very very important to understand the significance of the declaration by bar that he's now going to be looking into the other side of the point which is you know what your it's a meeting should have been done inside of this study that is you almost in plain view you had a privately assembled funded by the d.n.c. and by one of the republican candidates smear report on trump that was shepherded to the f.b.i. used as the basis for. or fraud in the inducement basically on the pfizer order to get a warrant to wiretap trump's campaign which but the obama administration

happens if it doesn't work go ahead alexander well a lot of good points peter because i agree i mean first of all the united states is basically saying to all the countries of the world this is who you can buy oil from this is who you cannot buy oil from when you were in force of use of porn you which may not be your views by using the position that the dominant position we have through the reserve currency status of the dollar you will risk fines for your companies if you don't obey what we say and in effect the united states is trying to impose an economic blockade on the run by stopping its oil exports and it isn't forcing it on all other countries and it is doing stir outside the provisions of the u.n. charter and outside the powers of the u.n. security council which under chapter seven of the united nations charter is the body which is also rights to impose sanctions and economic is on is it an essential way a declaration of war is this a so i'm going to. say it comes very close to being that our i don't think we're in a situation of armed conflict but of course we can easily se

alexander: it is a weird question.nne: it is interesting because the moment we get the data, it looks like bad news on the market. alexander: from a short-term perspective. wantn the long-term, you more data. the more stimulus, the more increased leverage. the less sustainable growth is over the long-term. it is choosing leverage versus deleveraging last year, that makes it less sustainable. it is short-term versus long-term. david: earnings are coming up. potential positive revision point of view, which markets across asia look more promising than others? we think china. we think the downward revisions. we think there is a positive on the back of march data. the fact we see slowdown in nominal growth it will put downward pressure on domestic industrial revenues and profits. seen and scale we have it is coming through, and the news around potential stimulus for autos and electronics, that could provide a positive boost. at least a positive upward revision. youne: in terms of risks, have a list of them from talking to y

you know live two artes alexander's do not solve who is near the scene of the fire alexander's what more can you tell us. well indeed the whole area is right now by the police and if you can see one of the wire men brigade right now leaving the scene what we're left to our are lots of water men working almost a hundred firemen where you're winding the fighting the fire we don't know yet what was the cause of the choir and what was because of the closure. because for some information from the spokesperson that was the portable yes illusions which are used to build the barbecue. well that's a very common issue for a reason because lots of people keep. the portable gas barbecues on their balconies in the summer and even during the wintertime right now there's a lot of people here waiting to be let back in the park or to find out at least if there's anything left. it's still a lot of police and a lot of presence and big pharma threat but for now there's still no information if there's any casual phone or what was swords and the main reason of this explosion. all right thanks alexander's we k

cassandra newby-alexander. most of us in civil war studies, we absolutely got to take a deep breath and a little bit of a vacation, of course, after dealing with the civil war ofquicentennial in april 2015. some of us had been at it for six or seven years at that point. our next speaker, who is among those who deserved a long vacation after the sesquicentennial, did not do that. she and her university, norfork state, they actually hosted the 2012nwealth of virginia's signature conference, but cassandra, her break was about that big. she got back to work on another major commemorative event, the 400th anniversary, which i am told is called a qatercentennial. i will never use that word again. the 400th anniversary of the arrival of the first africans in virginia. in english north america, obviously, as well as the first women colonists and the american oldest surviving representative government in 1619. dr. alexander has been working since 2011 on the "making of america" programming series, and if you were not fa

blayne alexander reporting. thank you. in sessions is not right now, so their reaction has been coming in all day from all over the country. >> news 4 scott macfarlane is at our live desk what some of our local members are saying. scott. >> jim and doreen, just one republican in maryland's congressional delegation, reprentative andy harris of the eastern shore on social media said the special counsel has clearly exonerated the president from allegations of collusion. he call s it wasted time, energ and money. a different statement on the facebook page of chris van holland. he wrote that was quite a spin barm attorney general barr on a report he has allowed no one but the white house to read so far just like when i questioned him under oath. he wanted to make it clear he believed president trump was not guilty of obstruction ever justice but refuses to give facts to back it up. as the long-awaited report was released, we found most of the delegation out of town going on kbre congressional tours, some oth out of the country.

that it obvious washington bureau chief alexander phenomena joins me now from the alexander nato secretary general against altenburg has been speaking to reporters what did he say. he was basically talking about the agenda for this meeting here and one huge topic here is russia and what has been described here as russia's aggressive behavior especially in the black sea and the ministers here are talking about the so-called black sea package measures including civilians and more nato ships in the black sea with the purpose of strengthening georgia and especially ukraine with the purpose of making sure that ukraine ships can travel safely in an area that is effectively controlled by russia the current strange has become sort of flashpoint between russia and the west and after russia ceased ukrainian ships there in november so that is one of the topics the foreign ministers are talking about here they also are talking about afghanistan the new training mission in iraq and of course burden sharing a little all in later foreign ministers will meet and shout is it would a celebration as near to

alexander, i will start with you. did the president have anything to add to what he might do when congress does call administration officials to testify? >> reporter: well, we may hear from him in his own words just moments from now he'll be boarding marine one. reporters are staking him out there. if he says anything we'll turn that around for you right away. of course, one of the moves the president might make is to try to exert executive privilege in effect to try to prevent his former white house counsel don mcgahn from testifying before congress. critics will point out the fact that mcgahn was allowed to speak to robert mueller, executive privilege wasn't exerted then, why would the circumstances be any different now? but the president also tweeted today that he would be willing to go even further, suggesting if the democrats try to impeach him, that he would try -- he would in effect take this to the supreme court. our colleague, our expert on all these things, pete williams, follows up with a note he just share

speaking cross alexander's doing ourselves who is near the scene of the fire alexander as we know that you've been out there following the story since things pretty much got going what more can you tell us. well no definitely i can see that the situation was taken under control because for the last few hours there were more signs of the relief within the fire brigade because now there was some of them are now relaxed and some of them just left and the i still can see that behind me on the level floor and some would like floor from the so we can see the light of the torch slight as jim that's still the fire brigade working in the dark in the burn department trying to understand what was the sort of the the fire itself and the explosion now it has been as that's one of the possible reasons of this explosion was the portable gas tank used for the barbecue use on the balcony. that's very possible because it's a very unusual and common. thing to do in paris now we can also remember that that's not the last not not the third explosion there is the time we can also remember that there was a g

geopolitical environment they would see though plans were also mentioned by connecting alexander the chinese silk road with the northern sea route if that is possible one how a second impact in the new belt and road and a lot of aspects there. you know well you know i think this these are long term plans i think everybody though is interested in the potential of this area including the chinese the americans the canadians europeans and so on because there are those who are resources and there are these facilities to link these continents but overall i don't think it will really play out in the near future you know or because there are very complicated the obstacles those to establish these trade routes are given the harsh conditions and the need to invest billions of. in the first searchers and and ships too to sail across this area so basically i think these are plans for the long term basically how do you see just the belt and road initiative it's got a lot of press a lot of negative press so far in in europe how big do you think it's actually going to go it's stretching into latin

artie's alexander's dinar is near the scene of that fire alexanders if you can hear me ok i just want to want more information if you manage to find out and perhaps maybe you've seen some things yourself. well yes indeed i am right now in the north of paris just in this residential area it's center buildings near no rosa parks train station what i can sell from now is that the apartment already has there are backing out but we can see that the whole area is blocked out and there's still a lots of firemen working on site probably just cleaning out the results of the fire we know it was a very very powerful. explosion there i can see from here a lots of black. smoke which teams and completely the ceilings and the walls of the building. i don't have right now information about the injuries or what actually caused the fire and the explosion but we will keep you updated on that yeah information just to confirm reports of no serious injuries at this point many thanks alexander's tenaces on the line for us from paris. thanks keeping it international more news coming your way after this short

that's where those people like alexander were so important in this trade.ey kind of bundled everything. after the winter -- after hopefully getting -- moved them into those new york markets. the overwintering was done there. >> none along the trail? >> none along the trail. if the markets became glutted. if you were one of the drovers who took his herd of last in the season, your possibilities of selling cattle were pretty slim. you would go west. .erds were over wintered they were -- once the rail heads were shipped to places like wichita they were over wintered around great bend. there were places in kansas where they were over wintered. >> i have two historical questions. one is about where the trail was. maps of wherefied the trail went through kansas? where do we find them and how wide was it question mark it was not like 50 feet. was it does go miles wide? the cows of varied on the past. surveys are housed in the historical society. i think one of the earlier the complete layout and the historical archives there, very similar map of the trail. this a

back on the pitch it was an individual battle byron munich versus freiburg keeper alexander's fellow. five were only paid four hundred thousand euros to sign him now he's valued at seven million a potential replacement for man one oil one day no buyer don't like bargains. i it got ridiculous towards the end with love and offbeat fluffing what could have been a winner money doesn't just buy goals it apparently buys the occasional misses to. play on the redskins had a rang off the crossbar in the closing seconds leavened off the sky and the follow up on high point to the drama for by. so much for an easy three points a colossal setback for the towering munich side with little freiburg mixing it up in the title race. fans are just as a football fan it's great they can go either way right now dortmund back ahead before the international break it looked like a fire and would carry their form till season's end which seems also i'm really happy for us but also for the title writes i hope that it stays tight till the end for the fans we've missed that in the last few years i mean it's you kno

crossed alexander's a generous offer who is in here the scene of the fire alexander what can you tell us. well i think leaders say and for a last hour days that near new signs of spring meet in the basin of water fires you can see the situation we want to control now the whole area is still blocked by the police and that's still a lot of the problem in the area i can clearly see that but it's the elite and then chief on the third shift and probably a good six four and on there's all of the building because the firefighters are still looking for the source of the initial the commission and probable thought source of the explosion now on the fish information from the spokesperson for the firefighters we know that that's possible that it was a low point of the gas tank used for the barbecues in the balcony. i think slowly this is even possible but. thank you new year's. victims there is no. great we can remember the previous gas explosion. back in january and it was actually people. which. also wasn't. being injured. so now we know we can see the situation seriously but it's wayne wider

while our bureau chief in washington is alexander phenomenon she followed events for us today on capitol hill she sent us this report. yes stoltenberg address to congress seems to go down well with the american audience especially when he praised the role do you as played in forming nato coing america the backbone of the alliance but sultan burke's point was also to illustrate that nato has been beneficial for partners on those sites of the atlantic the fact that the us has profited from nato is something the current you asked president often tends to forget when he criticizes the alliance. and alexander also spoke with both growing issue head of the munich security conference he's in washington this week and she asked him does nato need to change the way it seems itself i think what the future. will will put to nato in terms of new challenges is first and foremost how can nato deal with react to the new role of china. what role can nato take for all native members in managing new technologies you know when we think about the military about defense about security in the past we talked ab

profit initiatives thanks so much for coming in this morning alexander very pessimistic assessment we saw there people fighting for food and water specifically in indonesia do you think that is in the nation's future do you agree with those as well i think the picture painted by the special envoy is definitely a pessimistic one unfortunately we will have to expect. severe consequences from sea level rise however how severe those will be will depend on the multitude affected and we know for example that temperature as for temperature change sea level rise can also be limited if we reduce emissions rapidly for example ok you say a number of factors what are the main factors that are contributing to this that you think we need to look out for so there's a couple of uncertainties related to sea level rise how high we will have to sort of expect to see the first rise in the future for example. respond stuff like this on the one hand and obviously also how the local conditions in london is you ok what advice would you give the indonesian government to to mitigate some of the some of the wor
