pictures from europe and following anything that is happening with the polish prime minister and charles michel you look at some of the things that have changed in your portfolio construction, what are your biggest convictions? dan: our biggest convictions right now are outside the immediate situation we are seeing in europe. we prefer u.k. equities and japanese equities over u.s. equities but we know that u.s. equities are becoming more attractive because we have seen this year, so the focus now is not on trying to maximize to any one direction but making sure we have a robust portfolio. that has been the focus of the last year or so. we saw stock prices rise, making sure we have a portfolio that deals with a wide range of situations and not looking on one outlook. francine: what do you do with gold right now? how do you protect your portfolio? dan: when we think about protection we talk about government bonds and we saw that yesterday when we shot forward with 10 year yields, so we still think government bonds are the best way of protecting your portfolio from volatility. but we don't have go

he will be meeting with the european council, chaired by belgium prime minister charles michel. looking for ways to absorb things like 3 million plus refugees streaming into european countries and relieve poland, who is accepting them. significance of the meetings really drive home just how important the president's response is. back in washington, as we have seen, we have washed congress, bipartisan group of lawmakers push the president to take steps like sanctions and other moves. he has opportunity as leader of the free world to be in front and drive nato as many like senator graham are asking for a stronger resolve. we will hear the platitudes of unity in support in ukraine, but are they willing to take the steps? is nato willing to do everything in its power to put volodymyr zelenskyy in the driver's seat to win this war? we're seeing that fierce resistance north of the kyiv suburbs where they are pushing back on russian occupation, we know from the pentagon, the switchblade drones are not in country. we know that slovakia wants to give. there is a lot of work to be done in

charles: michelle, mentioned jay powell, i thought that was a heck of a presentation in front of congresshere. maybe he, maybe he is being wishful thinking, thinking about a soft landing. maybe he lost a lot of credibility sticking with transitory too long but you see the way the markets reacting at least right now. how do you explain this knee-jerk reaction and the idea that maybe you think though this could be a bad thing down the road? >> well even if he raises by a half a percent, he kind of more intimated toward as quarter percent, think about in terms of where inflation is going. obviously the russia ukraine situation is not helping the inflationary tiff, looking at food prices, oil prices et cetera. i think right now you have this knee-jerk reaction, that is the key word, charles, knee-jerk. you ever to look at this step back, the fed is behind the eight ball, inflation will run hot, continue to run hot, at some point it will be passed to consumers even more so which will infect everything including the equity markets. charles: the question is when people run out of money and stop

charles michelle also commended sanctions imposed on russia. really doesn't assume the divorce or, or net ladies and gentlemen, we have to be honest about all of this. the sanctions on russia will also impose a cost on us, but this is a cost worth paying because this is about our values, our convictions and our common future. as for the european union to officially recognize ukraine as a candidate country, it will be up to us as the you to act in accordance with the times. it's going to be difficult. we know that there are different views in europe. the council will have to seriously look at the symbolic and political and legitimate requests being made on the president of the european commission said the incontinence fate hangs in the balance of ukraine. she also acknowledged the anti war demonstrations in russia. nothing. a growing resistance against le malfunction, the actions of the kremlin are severely damaging the long term interests of russia and its people. more and more russians understand this as well. they are marching for peace and f

. >> biden there meeting with charles michele, president of the european council, speaking now aboutident xi of china. we'll, of course, follow the developments from brussels as they happen throughout the day. let's move on now with more developments. this one from ukraine's president, volodymyr zelenskyy, today. he told nato leaders that he needs just 1% of their firepower for the war against russia. zelenskyy accused russia of deploying white phosphorus many ukraine, the use of which is either banned or restricted under international law, depending on where or how it's deployed. all right, we expected to hear from the president there, but we also know some regional governors have reported similar claims. the u.s. state department tells cnn it was aware of the reports but said it was not in a position to confirm them. cnn senior international correspondent fred pleitgen joins me now from kyiv. so, fred, what is happening where you are right now? >> reporter: yeah, it's so interesting to hear the ukrainian president, volodymyr zelenskyy, speak there to those nato leaders today, and t

biden, not long ago was stood right there behind me with the european council president charles michel nato�*s eastern flank, still resisting calls for ukraine to enforce a no—fly zone, warning that that could risk leading to world war iii, but here tonight, president biden will be speaking to eu leaders about a variety of subjects but, not least of all, america�*s push to potentially supply the eu with more liquefied natural gas to help the eu wean itself off russian energy supplies. wean itself off russian energy su lies. , ., ~ wean itself off russian energy su lies. . ., ~' ., wean itself off russian energy su--lies. , ., ,, ., wean itself off russian energy su--lies. . ., ~' ., ., wean itself off russian energy su lies. , ., ~' ., ., , supplies. just mark our card for us briefl , supplies. just mark our card for us briefly. will— supplies. just mark our card for us briefly, will you? _ supplies. just mark our card for us briefly, will you? we _ supplies. just mark our card for us briefly, will you? we have - supplies. just mark our card for us briefly, will you? we have heard i br

but addressing the european parliament, the council president charles michel announced the launch of the launch a ukraine solidarity trust fund and an international conference to provide support for the immediate needs of ukraine and to help rebuild a democratic ukraine. one obstacle, as the west tries to tighten sanctions against russia, is the eu's dependence on russian fossil fuel exports. the eu currently relies on russia for 40% of its gas. but brussels has laid out a strategy aimed at cutting that reliance by two thirds within a year. and as the european commission president told meps today, it's hoping the us can help with extra supplies of liquefied natural gas. tomorrow i will discuss with president biden how to prioritise deliveries from the united states to the european union in the coming months. we are aiming at having a commitment for additional supplies for the next two winters. there was another long standing ovation for ukraine's president volodymir zelensky, this time from french mps and senators, as he continued his series of virtual speeches to friendly parliament

they are saying it's been organised in agreement with the president of the european council charles michelit is something that they are saying the eu here in brussels, the heads here, the chiefs, knew about, and they are saying it is to confirm the unequivocal support of the entire eu. for the sovereignty and independence of ukraine. and confirmed packages of support for ukraine as well. i think it's worth noting poland, of course, has taken a lead in terms of the refugee crisis but has also been one of those countries that has wanted to take the toughest line against russia, for obvious reasons, with ukraine on its border, but it has long, actually, argued for a tougher approach to russia and i think now wants to clearly lead the way on being seen to support ukraine, go to kyiv, as you say, quite an extraordinary development this morning. let's go straight to moscow. we're now seeing live coverage of the start of the meeting between russian foreign minister sergey lavrov and his iranian counterpart. this is a scheduled meeting. it is expected to focus on the run nuclear deal but we believ
