now, to el rasmussen, executive vice president of the razor center. welcome to our t. l. thanks for joining us. now, the german chancellor show salts has said that berlin is try not to escalate the ukraine conflicts into russia, nato war. what do you make of that statement? we do know the german germany has been fairly hesitant initially to send support to keith or peter, i think i really think, i think mr. shalt is getting a lot of pressure, obviously, from other natal certain other nato members to provide it. and we've seen the quite arrogant and insulting comments from the ukranian side about that. but germany has done a lot like he said, and they've provided a lot, but i, you know, historically, i think germany is quite i think they're quite concerned. as far as, as far as expanding and extending beyond the ukranian into, into european proper area the and across into germany would be a directly impacted potentially. also, we know that the, the german business community is really, really not supportive of the sanction. and many, many german businesses are going to go b

of vice president of the rate, to el rasmussen, claims that nato is more likely to use tactical nukes than russia. i listen to read the transcripts of a common sense and mister love at the un. there was no mention to me. the people most concerning that have heard the nuclear faber readily in the most obviously, james sullivan, just recently from the us and we know lives trust says, commented on that. we also know just before the special military operation started, mr. zelinski during the nato security conference, actually mentioned becoming a nuclear weapon state again, the ukraine. so i think nato and i have a much more of a concern that nato potentially would, would use tactical nuclear weapons prior to russia doing that. but if, even if it's after nuclear weapons on either side, it will, i think they're, they're, they're, they're kidding themselves. they think that would not lead quickly to a strategic level. and that's very, very concerned as washington brace to do. so for mid term congressional elections in november, rasmussen reports poll so as the issues american voters will ma

the head of the president's office, andriy yarmak, and former nato secretary general anders fogh rasmussen presented the project of the kyiv security treaty. the document should unite the international community in a strategic partnership. to help ukraine resist external armed aggression, nina kolomiets and volodymyr zelenskyi will tell, first of all, i want to thank you and your group of experts i would like to thank you for your collaboration and powerful work together with the head of the office for e-e all the experts once again for the document you developed regarding the recommendations of the future kyiv security treaty. i will tell you frankly that i have studied this document in detail . this is the first step. i think that these recommendations should form the basis of the future security of the contract, now it is being presented to the general public in kyiv security of documents, the guarantors undertake to provide weapons for ukrainian security intelligence to conduct joint military exercises to support the military industry, it is based on article 51 of the un charter, which

and if nothing else, it's next of double standards. rasmussen, executive vice president of the racial center. thanks so much for you. in the and before we go, let's return now to our breaking news. as the polling stations for the referendum had now closed off the several days with 15 ballots, and the nic and guns for public as well as in the breakaway ukrainian regions of hessen ends up propose. yeah, let's take a look at the preliminary results. as you see on your screen, the data shows that 87.42 percent of votes in the house and region were in favor of joining russia while it was 97.77 percent, and the guns for public 97.74 percent of the votes were in favor of joining welsh in the business people's republic and in the upper washing region. 92.04 percent said yes, for the homeland to become a part of russia. around one and a half 1000000 people cost a votes in the dentist republic, wiley, middle guns for public, the latest scottish shows that voter turnout exceeded 19 percent in the hudson and operational regions. the turn off was roughly the same for each of them. at 63 and 66 per

this november rasmussen the ports pole shows the issues that american voters will know over before filling out a balance on to in line with a governor's priorities is, is like energy policy, inflation violent crime and illegal immigration or at the full factor voters minds ahead of the war in ukraine, fats of nbc tracks, price hikes in the country, showing inflation is at its highest level in over 40 years. with he less consumers struggling with the cost of energy, housing, and close res. whitehouse though, appears not to share many of those concerns. as i stand here to day and lot of you know me well, i am more optimistic than ever been in my entire life about america's future. progress does come in as common. now if you look at our job market, consumer spending business investment, we see signs of economic progress. we're not to be in her session or my view, my hope as we go from this rapid growth is steady growth. and so she will see some coming down because they were going to god willing, i don't think she washington has failed to prioritize you as low as main concerns with the rasmuss

the former secretary general of nato enders rasmussen was in keith and is in keith. and he, along with the top adviser to ukrainian president bald, amir zelinski held a press briefing today where they are outlining what they're calling the key security compact. this is very much an aspirational plan that they are putting together and they're just start know, put it out on paper and announce it now. and they're billing it as a new security apparatus for europe. if you will, new security pack for europe. what it basically would entail is this. it would be like minded countries that would be signing on to this. that would be able to coordinate military, political, and financial support to ukraine now, but also in the future. should ukraine face more acts of aggression or threats of acts of aggression? you know, in this, sir, russian, a invasion began a little over 6 months ago. there was a lot of confusion of countries wanting to help ukraine, but not knowing how to and everyone was kind of speaking with a different voice. this is meant to change that. and a, this pact

however, key officials say this proposal is not a substitute for joining nato. url rasmussen again says the ultimate goal is to drag the conflict out for as long as possible the fact. so, ukraine's actually to be bitter to part of nato. secondly, but, but this actually, i think is it is an escalation of the commitment. and it even discusses the multi decade commitment. so we're looking at western powers, trying to drag this on as long as possible. this is essentially drawing down their own surprise and essentially develop the right thing nato members for a country that's not part of the, it's not part of nato. there's no defending democracy. it's not really a democracy. and it seems like one of the potential guarantors turkey cars, serious displeasure in kiev, that's after a website link to the ukranian foreign ministry demanded sanctions against several turkish bank executives and business men for failing to join the sanctions against russia. that's just by the significant assistance and kara has been providing to moscow the website war and sanctions published several turkish bank boss

specifically, with deepfakes, i have advised global leaders including anders fh rasmussen, the formere time, wavp, w president of the uned states. when you consider deepfakes as well as the epidemic of bad information that is inundating our societies, they absolutely can be seen as an existential threat to liberal democracies and they're already at a place where a single creator, right, you interviewed him for your documentary, chris ume, can create fake video content that's more sophisticated than anything a hollywood studio would be able to do,create even with a multi-million-dollar budget or teams and teams of scial effects artists. and this democratization is happening so quickly that experts suggest that by the end of the decade, so 2030, up to 90% of online video could be synthetically generated, so, made by ai. even before they become ubiquitous, what they're already doing is undermining trust in all authentic media. this is a phenomenon known as liar's dividend and we've already started to see that at play. so, if anything can be faked, including video, then everything can be

of the president's office andriy yarmak of ukraine and former nato secretary general anders fogh rasmussenpresented recommendations on security guarantees for ukraine, the group proposes to create the kyiv security treaty, a joint document on strategic partnership between it is assumed by ukraine and the guarantor states that the main group of allies will undertake clear obligations to support the armed forces of ukraine, and the wider group will provide non-military guarantees built around sanctions mechanisms. yurmak emphasized that the agreement is not a substitute for ukraine's accession to nato, but is only a means of ensuring security until this entry will not take place, president zelenskyi said in the region. it is important that the leaders of the most powerful states sign the future agreement. more than 9 million ukrainians have left ukraine since the beginning of a full-scale invasion according to surveys, only 7% of refugees do not plan to return home, others are waiting for the end of the war and the deoccupation of their cities i stood with 7 suitcases and i didn't understand

the political will to implement nuclear deterrence if necessary. 5, president of the ways of santa rasmussen says that nato is more likely to use tactical nuclear weapons than russia. i listened to and read the transcript, the president common sense and mister love. at the un. there was no mention of the people most concerning that have heard the nuclear sabre rattling in the most obviously j sullivan just recently from the us and we know lives trust says, commented on that. we also know just before the special military operation started, mr. zelinski during the nato security conference, actually mentioned becoming a nuclear weapon state again ukraine. so i think nato is, i have a much more of a concern that nato potentially would, would use tactical nuclear weapons prior to russia doing that. but if, even if it's tactical nuclear weapons on either side, it will. i think they're there. they're just kidding themselves if they think this would not escalate quickly to a strategic level. and that's very, very concerned. a reminder about breaking news. 15 people have been killed, including 11 chi

presented by the head of the president andriy yarmak and former nato secretary general anders god rasmussen, these are the recommendations regarding the kyiv treaty on security for the strategic partnership of ukraine and the state guarantors . the communiqué of march 29 is significantly different from these guarantees, because then we undertook to give up, well, even becoming a nuclear state. so now we have given up with the budapest memorandum , we have given up on the e strategy to nato, in fact, in that communique, everything is already the opposite, you know so well for ukraine, it consists in the fact that the sanctions against russia have been presented, the signatory countries cannot cancel until reparations have been paid to all courts, until the troops are withdrawn, it is clear, and we are also obliged to provide and funds for the defense budget and to train our military and there are very, very many rules written there . in your opinion, this is realistic. in general, i think that the istanbul stonewall and this kyiv security one , what do they call it, a convention or some othe

the office of the president of ukraine andriy yarmak and former nato secretary general anders fogh rasmussen presented recommendations on security guarantees for ukraine, they propose to create the kyiv security agreement, a joint document on strategic partnership between ukraine and the guarantor states, it is assumed that the main group of allies will undertake clear obligations to support the armed forces of ukraine, and the wider group will provide non-military guarantees built around sanctions mechanisms. yarmak emphasized that the agreement is not a substitute for ukraine's accession to nato is only a means of ensuring security until this accession takes place, they cook and sell goodies, create patriotic crafts and even dance, and all with a charitable purpose to help zes, we have repeatedly talked about volunteer children who collect money to support the ukrainian army, this time our correspondents will tell about a family where sisters make soap for a good cause, well, now here, let 's say perfume, dyes and a large amount of soap base at first glance can to seem that this is a scien

so this is clearly a joint push of zalinski and, and as for rasmussen and nato to kind of engulf europe to draw it into this conflict even more because right now this deal looks quite lopsided. i should say, cave gets everything. america's military, industrial complex gets loads of orders and basic and loads of work and loads of money while europe gets a lot of obligations and a lot of responsibility, right? ukraine feels like that europe is, is all giving. so right. like of the golden goose, if you like, always giving the egg know that the gift the get, the gift that keeps on growing. who have brushes, reacted to this. well, basically, this proposal, there's absolutely nothing to restore and to bring peace closer to restore peace in europe if you like it. essentially, this deal is exactly the opposite of that. it's the opposite of what russia wants are on its borders once in its backyard. if you flash back and rewind to february into january to december, when russia was voicing its security concerns and was saying, well, we do not need another nato snail member states on, on our border

oh rasmussen, executive vice president of the you regional centers as ukraine officials don't want to see the truth come out. ukraine have it and we've been, are all about. i complete propaganda. you never know what's actually coming out of there. and they do not want to have someone actually see on the ground the for themselves, the situation. they want everyone to believe. trust us just like butcher no evidence trust. they definitely do not want to see the truth because that i think there's definitely war crimes that i think it'll come out to show what has actually happened over the last year, mr. melnik and do all the name calling he wants to. but i do not see how this less. there's some external pressure that we're unaware of. i do not see any type of criminal charges being being brought to them. i mean, an extra you would one representatives to go and actually see for themselves what the situation is. i mean, i would, you would want that. it just makes sense. but we're in a, we're in a very unusual situation right now. as a result of western sanctions on the costs and difficultie

international group on security guarantees for ukraine. former nato secretary general andres von rasmussenty guarantees can currently be provided by great britain for kyiv in the first place. what we have talked about more than once and with the british, our security colleagues of ukraine would be provided with membership in the northern tactical alliance, that is, in nato, and great britain remains our permanent traditional partner ukraine's accession to nato, we never during our interactions with britain heard from them that let's think and not on time, as russia is regurgitating, it was always firm and straightforward support that ukraine should have the right to ensure security, like all other members of the alliance. well, unfortunately, not only britain, not only canada and the united states are in nato, there are other countries that, unfortunately, do not see ours so optimistically, so i offer another option. well, for example, we are currently actively developing, we want to understand where can we get developing, for example, in a tripartite affair, i work between great britain,

was also declared money wanted by the ambassador of the heath suggested peace also, the russia ow, rasmussen, executive vice president of the eurasia center says he is dictating how european politicians should acts. i'm just made at the statement that the criticism that is thrown at germany and other other member states that are, that may not be providing as much as ukraine would like. and, and let's say that this is essentially drawing down their own surprise supplies. and essentially, the little rising nato members for a country that's not part of the, it's not part of nato. there's no defending democracy. it's not really the countries of political career. so they have to watch out for themselves and they should be watching their people, unlike what minister bear box to hear more about ukraine than the german people to see the amount of weapons, the amount of e lowing in the money flowing in crane. and yet they are about insults of the senior people. this is just, i mean it's humility. i would find it humility. if i was a european diplomat, have those comments made i it said the ukrainians

so, for instance, in 2018, before the midterm elections, the polling firm rasmussen, they put a poll into the field asking americans the issues they cared about heading into the midterms. and when they asked about the war in afghanistan, 42% of americans -- it wasn't that the war wasn't a priority for them -- 42% of americans couldn't even say if the war was still going on. they just -- they didn't even know at that point. and for a democracy, that's very dangerous, particularly as the issues of war and peace should be the ones that we consider the most gravely. >> let's go back to a year ago. when the united states pulled our troops from afghanistan, you worked to help evacuate dozens of afghans, including the all-girls robotics team, the family of your interpreter, and many others who aided the united states in two decades of war. you describe your role in the civilian-led effort in your new book, "the fifth act: america's end in afghanistan." why did it fall on you and other concerned citizens, veterans, aid workers, the retired chairman of the joint chiefs of staff, to evacuate a

in the wall. gabriel alexander has moved from kate the former a secretary general of nato. anders rasmussen was in cave and isn't keith. and he, along with a top adviser to ukrainian president old amir zalinski, held a press briefing today where they are outlining what they're calling the key security compact. this is very much an aspirational plan that they are putting together and they're just start know, put it out on paper and announce it now. and they're billing it as a new security apparatus for europe. if you will, new security pack for europe. what it basically would entail is this. it would be like minded countries that would be signing on to this. that would be able to coordinate military, political, and financial support to ukraine now, but also in the future. should ukraine face more acts of aggression or threats of acts of aggression? now, as the ukrainian military offensive continues in the northeast, we're starting to get a better sense of how this is being received in russia. and we're seeing russian bloggers and pro russia military analysts that are now commenting. and ther

office of the president of ukraine andriy yermak and the former secretary general of nato anders von rasmussene now presented a draft agreement on security guarantees for ukraine. previously, the president's office announced the appearance of this document several times. well, today the details finally became known. so, the so-called kyiv security agreement is offered to sign the guarantor countries that could b to speak united states great britain canada poland italy germany france australia turkey baltic countries north central eastern europe as specified in the agreement is not a substitute for ukraine's accession to nato, but only a means of ensuring security until this accession takes place; the draft agreement provides for such guarantees, the ability to defend itself against an aggressor in accordance with article 51 of the un charter; this requires long-term and constant investments in ukraine's defense and industrial complex; large-scale transfer of weapons intelligence support from allies training missions joint exercises under the auspices of the eu and nato preventive measures mili

head of the president's office andriy yarmak and the former secretary general of nato, anders von rasmussen, presented the security guarantee project for ukraine, what this document provides for, and whether the leaders of the countries are ready allies , sign it, watch it in svoboda life. congratulations, this is freedom. my name is vlasta lazur. i am live in languages ​​on the pages of radio svoboda on facebook and on youtube, as well as on the air of the espresso tv channel in more than 300 settlements were liberated in the kharkiv region , this was announced by deputy minister of defense hanna malyar. according to her, more than 150,000 ukrainians were freed from the occupation, where they were actually held hostage. kharkiv oblast president volodymyr zelenskyi announced in his evening address that at the beginning of september, the ukrainian military liberated more than 6,000 m² of the territory of ukraine zelenskyi's declaration of liberation territories in the east and south of the country in the kremlin do not comment. for example, literally today, the spokesman of the russian presi

o rasmussen, executive vice president of the eurasia center says, heave is dictating how your pain politicians should acts. i'm just made that at the statement. the criticism that is thrown at germany and other other member states that are, that may not be providing as much as ukraine would like. and i must say that this is essentially drawing down their own surprise supplies. and essentially the will rising nato members for a country that's not part of the, it's not part of nato. there's no defending democracy. it's not really a democracy. these countries of political career too. so they have to watch out for themselves and they should be watching their people, unlike what minister bareback the, to hear more about ukraine than the german people to see the amount of what happened. the amount of, of a flowing in the money flowing in the crane. and yet they talks about insults of the senior people. this is just me, it's humility. i would find it humility humiliate. if i was your, your p and diplomats have those types of comments made. i think it's, the ukraine is dictating the path. it's shockin

international relations next that all rasmussen explains why washington can welcome certain foreign extremists while condemning any one who would have those fees domestically. what so called the thir, be clear or not aligned to the current administration of jer, while we have ultra nationals in other countries. those the that whole objectives is maintain us a gemini, the court world. am i nomic form objective? that's ok. they may not. those people may not actually support those. so the but they're assisting us to counter russia. we don't, you know, who's not part of that so, so it's basically basically we're using them. we're using those back there and giving them visibility and providing support them even though it's fun to mentally, we probably do not leave in their their funded mental beliefs. moving now to germany, where the german government has been hit by a tsunami of criticism on social media. after the new york times published a report showing the extremes, burden goes to to stem hate speech in the country. imagine that germany is doing more than any other country in the west to prose

the former a secretary general of nato. anders rasmussen was in keith and isn't keith. and he, along with the top adviser to ukrainian president, well, the mere zalinski held a press briefing today where they are outlining what they're calling the key security compact. this is very much an aspirational plan that they are putting together and they're just start know, put it down on paper and announce it now. and they're billing it as a new security apparatus for europe. if you will, new security pack for europe. what it basically would entail is this. it would be like minded countries that would be signing on to this. that would be able to coordinate military, political, and financial support to ukraine now, but also in the future. should ukraine face more acts of aggression or threats of acts of aggression? you know, in this, sir, russian invasion began a little over 6 months ago. there was a lot of confusion of countries wanting to help ukraine, but not knowing how to. and everyone was kind of speaking with a different voice. this is meant to change that. and this pact

just trust us or you are the enemy was cross live now to earle rasmussen, executive vice president of the eurasia center. earl, it's great to have you on the program today. now why would key consider visiting the don bass on a fact finding mission as a criminal offense, especially if it's national parliament members from germany, one of the closest allies. how do we make sense of this? well look back is the ukraine has and we've seen it all about i you have to complete propaganda. you never know what's actually coming out of there. and they do not want to have someone actually see on the ground see for themselves the situation. they want to everyone to believe, trust us just like butcher no evidence trust. and that's the situation and, and i think the, it doesn't really matter if it's a, if it doesn't matter of someone else. another politician from, from the west went on a fact finding basis and that's exactly what it is and primarily look at the humanitarian situation there. i that they definitely do not want to see the truth come out because i think there's definitely work crime tha

operation was launched, the landscape faded in one of his public and frances and he did a lot of these rasmussen still doing them. that it was that baked mistakes or ukraine to renounce the nuclear weapons when the soviet union collapsed to, to him, of brushing him for these was what i said this conversation was started by him. it was because when we talked about the problems, ways to resolve, cried us in ukraine, and then despite you operate the special needs reparation. then the minister of foreign affairs are friends with me for luxury and publicly stated that russia should remember that friends also possesses its nuclear weapons. it was not for belt in any way. if you move up, she knew which we haven't started this conversation. polanski was the one who started exploring this topic matter luxury and made this statement about friends possessing, having nuclear weapons disposal. you know, how strong i reacted to the question. would you be afraid to push this rand gotten asked process for the russian federation and sad that well, let's see and the other that's the trembling representative is se

we're going to god willing washington is fell to prioritize us both his main concerns would be rasmussen, report showing just one in 5 americans considered the ukraine crisis to be a very important issue. despite media attention. while the stinson think tank estimates the value with military assistance ukraine in 2022 with the same as that in the us government. same as that. the u. s. government provided to us can install as well and b g combined in 2020 on thursday. the bytes of administration, we sent another $600000000.00 of military a to ukraine. civil rights attorney robert priscilla say the buys and administration is using the conflict and ukraine to deflect from domestic issues. i think the kitchen table is always going to be at the forefront of the american people's concern, and we're looking at inflation, gas prices, et cetera. foreign policy often ends up fairly down on the live body ministrations as been able to use the ukranian war. it's kind of a stop back stop gap, one size fits all explanation for everything as inflation. ukraine war, gas prices, ukraine war, lack of g d,

this november, rasmussen reports poll show that the issues american votes as will mill over before filling out the balance on exactly in line with our government's priorities. issues alike, energy policy, inflation, violent crime under legal immigration are at the forefront of votes as mines that says and be see trucks, price hikes in the country, saying that inflation is at its highest level in over 40 years. with u. s. consumers struggling with the cost of energy, housing, and groceries. the whites also appears not sasha, many of those concerns. as i stand here to day, and lot of you know me well, i am more optimistic than ever been in my entire life. about america's future progress does come in as common. now if you look at our job market, consumer spending business investment, we see signs of economic progress. we're not in her session or my view. my hope is we go from this rapid growth is steady growth. and so she will see some coming down . oh, we're going to, oh god willing, i don't think it's washington's fail to prioritize us. go to his main concerns with the reports by the simpso

early i thought, said jack, rasmussen economics, professor at st. mary's college in california. it predicts that probably discontent will continue to rise. as european politicians keep sacrificing their own people's welfare, political and, you know, cost of it with their own population, reaches a point that, you know, the cancer sustained it any longer. i mean, that's the only direction that is gonna come from. i don't see any, any of the elite spreaking ranks and, you know, saying yeah, okay, a dios policies are as negative complications for us. so we're not going to abide by it anymore. you know, i can see that kind of declaration. but, you know, the, the key here, the wild card is of the population. well, i think it's gonna take a lot more, a public crusher here over the winter. you know, the politicians will, you know, the squeaky wheel gets the grease, whatever, you know, and i don't think at this point, they will know they're very much the lisa very much tied into a u. s. foreign policy. but if the people in, you know who like them, really started expressing discontent, wh

taking a look at different polls, the rasmussen poll with 43% approval but 54% disapproval.euters at 39% approval, 54% a proven. with the yougov poll with we -- and then the nbc poll is 45% approval compared to 52% disapproval. you have fox news reporting 43% approval and 56% disapproval. again, those who participated in the poll, you can talk about the numbers themselves what you think are behind a numbers particularly. if you take a look at that real quick politics even if you go to the website, they keep track of that aggregate pull of approval and disapproval number. the disapproval in red the approval in black. if you take a look at that under the poll, if you see from july. the approval numbers steadily going upward in an upward trend when it comes to his presidents approval. then the disapproval numbers on a downward track which leads us to today. you can find more of that at the real clear power politics website. -- democrats line. you are next up. hi. >> i think president biden is doing a good job with what he has had to work with. he had to straighten out this mess
