u. k. u. s. so it seems that they're picking me that on the international stage when it comes to defense issue. teresa, i do want to dig into some of the pacific stuff in just a moment as plenty to discuss that. but nicholas, i want to bring you in here because we're talking about you political well, not just in terms of finding money to do all of this, but also in terms of spending it on the right things and also dealing with the whole nature issue. so in your mind, nicholas, what's actually holding this hold on there are a couple of things. one of them has been mentioned by both my colleagues already, which is the fear of duplication between the resorts already go into a show. the results of my going to you on a little bit skeptical about this, to be honest because actually this is, these are resorts that are going to be used one way or the other anyway. and i'm not sure it makes such a big difference which helps people are wearing when they're, when they're under a particular taking a particul

u. s. and the u. k. a. today they work within their own proper alliance with 5 eyes project with canada as well. and then the u. s. included, they work more closely. it's like within the anglo saxon world, these are the real, this is the real alliance. and they were much closer together than they do when there are other allies. and this is why france has been excluded. i think because the u. k. australia and the, and the u. s. trust themselves more than the new trust countries like france or other ones, community or even germany. when you bring up the issue of trust. as you were saying, europe in america was supposed to be working together on defense such as nathan with you said together. is it possible that a, a new security packed with australia, the u. k. in america, could this undermine nato, in any way? do you think? i don't forget the manual macro said a couple years ago that data was brain dead. even donald trump said that nato had to be reviewed. nato isn't working as it's supposed to be. it was init

my few s u. k. s. trading is nuclear submarine. collaboration has seriously undermined regional peace and stability intensify the arms race and undermined international nuclear non proliferation efforts. so quite a bit of skepticism from international observers about joe biden speech. this was his 1st speech to the un general assembly price break. can you tell me about as a recent ro, between the us, france as to over a broad new deal between washington and london encumbrance in a new to us tonight, where the french defense ministry, saying nato partners, the initiative of france and germany agreed to revise the strategic concept of the whole alliance. so that's big news. a new european council pole meantime suggests that many europeans believe america is caught up in a new cold war. the results of the poll we talked to the may, june this year show that the majority of respondents believes that the us is a new in a new battle with the chief political rivals, china and russia, but not so at home where

u. s. u. k and australia made the surprise announcement about their new partnership. on wednesday. it will see australia provided with the technology and capability to deploy nuclear powered submarines, new zealand, singapore in japan, have all largely welcome to the move or at least the in the pacific focus, which will see the sharing of other defense technology. but it has been called a trump style. stab in the back by france, which will lose its own submarine deal with australia. and it's overshadowed the european union's long expected pacific strategy, which was announced that just hours later. and as the 3 outliers may have intended, the worst reception was in china. it warned of damage to regional stability. but the deals being seen as a pushback against its own military build up in the south china sea. on thursday, the us that the 3 of state joined his australian counterpart to try to reassure allies that they would not be shutout roslyn. jordan reports from washington. the u. s. u. k and

u. s. u. k and france will sort this out, will find a way forward, because we need to focus on the big and important issue. and that is the child and just more unpredictable will we need to stand together in a 2nd general young starting book. thank you very much for joining us. live on al jazeera, the un general assembly continues. nick, we're going to be hearing soon from the president of china. james, thanks very much indeed for that. j bay's reporting there from the you injurious embley in new york. a quick glimpse about website out sarah dot com is the address all the news were covering. right, there are plenty of comments and analysis to biden at the un assembly, and we're not seeking a new cold war which alludes to the the forthcoming speech from the chinese president. she's in pain, which will be recorded. will be back at 17 j with another 30 minutes news, thrice is coming by for me. ah ah ah ah ah, populations grow and then comes rise more and more animal proteins. definitely mount milk

u. k and the u. s. signed a pacific security packed called orchestra seen as countering china and involves cooperation in the realms of artificial intelligence, cybersecurity and nuclear defense. australia will acquire a nuclear power submarine fleet with american and british technology. china, which is the dominant power in the indo pacific region, as can done deal, is being cold war mentality. neither washington nor london have explicitly linked the new deal to the supposed threat from basing the remarks from the us defense secretary left little room for doubt. we spoke in detail about china, the stabilizing activities in beijing is efforts to course and intimidate other countries. this agreement, this relationship does not aim that anything or anyone. while china and friends of angry about the new pact, others are asking what it could mean to nato. katrinka sons the latest reactions. when donald trump left office and joe biden took charge, it could have been a sigh of relief for some of washington's

u. k. called all because, but haven't the u. s. the u. k. and all these been close allied for ages. what's the problem? well, thanks to august, australia will now be hooked up with us technology to build nuclear submarines while france waves goodbye to its own multi $1000000000.00 contract to build 12 diesel subs for a camera. now, for some damage control by senior american officials, after that deal was to repeat ode. there are a range of partnerships that include the french and some partnerships that don't. and they have partnerships with other countries that don't include us. that is part of how global diplomacy works are such words enough to calm the fury in paris, which is even called of a gala, at the french embassy in washington to celebrate historic ties with the u. s. good question. anyway, the french government has shown they're not willing to just swallow that bitter pill. plus there's solidarity with paris from b, e. u on the matter. you know, because you do believe it is a good opportunity to recall to reflect on the need to raise the issue of european strategic autonom

u. k and the u. s. have long maintained a significant naval and air presence in the in the pacific region. in competition with china, the injection of australia, nuclear power submarines could well intensify this new cold war under the water as well as above. mike hannah 0, washington or china delivered its latest criticism of the lines through its foreign ministry, which said the partnership is damaging to regional peace and security spokesman added that providing australia with nuclear submarine technology will hurt. international anti proliferation efforts may war war. we are the leon, down the u. k in u. s. are about to export powerful technology to a strike. and that shows that they using nuclear exports as a geo political tool. applying double standards and which is extremely responsible astrologer is a non nuclear weapon state party to the n p t and a party to the nuclear weapons free zone in the southern pacific. now it's importing nuclear power submarine technology with strategic military value

u. k in u. s. are about to export powerful technology to australia and that shows that they using nuclear exports as a geo political tool. applying double standards, which is extremely irresponsible. a strategy or is a non nuclear weapon state party to the n p t and a party to the non nuclear weapons free zone in the southern pacific. now it's importing nuclear power submarine technology with strategic military value has this on the international community including neighboring countries, have raising the question, is commitment to nuclear nonproliferation china will closely monitor the situation . or the nuclear watchdog says, all 3 nations briefed it about the new alliance. the i. e. a says they've advised that they're committed to maintaining australia, is exemplary nonproliferation credentials, and that they will be engaging with the i. e, a throughout the coming months and process farm as there has hit out at australia for cancelling a massive submarine deal in favor of nuclear power. u. s. su

u. k. in the u. s. maintain deal with australia, a nuclear submarines at the expense of france. we asked the australian director of the nobel peace prize winning international campaign to abolish nuclear weapons. if this could be the opening salvo of the war on china, and as suspicions rise about tax bailouts for ever granted. like black rock, we speak one former black rock managing director, fighting trickle down economics for the rights of many to pay more taxes or more coming up in today's going underground at 1st at the un general assembly, which finishes today in new york, us president joe biden said bombs and bullets can defend against coven 19 or it's future variance. but that hasn't stopped minting a new security packed with the you can go straight to build a fleet of nuclear submarines while un secretary general, antonio terrorist warns of a new cold war. what will be the true cost of further western nuclear proliferation? joining me now from sidney is the australian director of the nobel peace prize winning international campaign to abolish nuclear weapons. jim ramos,

u. s. u k? now, at this time helping australia develop a nuclear power suite of submarines and then turning around and saying this will advance the world peace. clearly this is about another war. this is about a war that is being prepared against china. the us leaders, they talk about the endo pacific, which is of course, a know term was made up to enable us to explain us leaders explain, bringing more countries into the anti china alliance surrounding china. on the surface, we see that the u. s. and the k is empowering australia to have the nuclear submarine . i think the under one key reason for this empowerment is the us in the ability to provide more defense budgets to support this a large spending of nuclear power summaries. so it says it is forcing australia to share the cost of maintaining such ships and also strategic positions and also forces into soap toilet and also indo pacific region, especially now that there is increasing tension between china and australia. so china is watching v

u. k. economy and the u. s. economy. of course nancy pelosi is over the u. k. traffic house and she's been barking on about the fact that she's going to, obviously for the u. k. u. s. tre, deal in the northern protocol as hell too. but that's another issue. why i wanted to hit on that. why is that an issue that an american law maker would start to criticize and say, such a thing? you should remember that over a $1000000000.00 with a trade is conducted between just california, her district and the u. k alone. so she's actually the british, i'm, she's been very small about this. the british embassy is going to congress with a report by congressional district and states. they can cook to congressional district of how many american jobs are in those respect, u. k. jobs and american jobs are dependent on u. k. business, so it's very small move by the british embassy. but what it is, is that in congress, you have a lot of american politicians that have irish roots and don't want to see that protocol broken, but not it. does anybody in the u. k. in the u. k. they wi

u. s. and u. k. the deal between the u. k. u. s. in austria is widely seen as an effort to count of china's influence in the region. recalling ambassadors in the carefully coded language of diplomatic relations is, is a pretty serious move. it's not the breaking off of diplomatic relations, but it's what you do, what you want to show to a country that you really are not happy with the way it's behave. and let's not forget that france is the united states oldest allies, allies, a relationship that goes back to 1778. when france recognized the independence of these breakaway colonial states. and help them in that war of independence against the british b, u. s. military, as i mentioned, a drone strike and i've kinda sounds capital last month, kill civilians of not isolate sciences. 10 people including 7 children, died in the attack. in cobble top us commander has apologized guineas. military leaders say that they will not bow to international pressure to let detained president of a condo fly into exile. the west african regional block

u. s. u. k. s. trading nuclear submarine collaboration has seriously undermined regional peace and stability intensify the arm phrase and undermine international nuclear nonproliferation efforts. so quite a bit of skepticism from international observers about joe biden speech. this was his 1st speech to the un general assembly cannibal and reporting that will journalist chris hedges and all she was former for a minister. karen i saw told us is a divide between what the white has says and what it actually does. not trust the bilateral new sense now that so when the fly away by a phone call that has been announced further than 5 minutes, it will remain. and i'm pretty sure that it will have further implications for free trade for, for the various council between the us and your opinion. if there is one country that really implies to your politics and it's diplomacy, it's france to all that. we also have to at the fragmentation that there are insights made. there is a kind of feigning on the part of

u. s. u. k and australia reportedly agreed to form a new defense alliance on the sidelines of this year's g. 7 summit in england, washington in london will help it by a fleet of nuclear powered submarines. the main reason for the alliance containing china, we spoke in detail about china, the stabilizing activities in beijing efforts to course and intimidate other countries. contrary to establish rules and norms, we will remain clear eyed and review a beijing's efforts to undermine the established international order. we discussed the competition of china at a number of levels that requires us to respond and to increase resilience. this does not mean that there are not constructive areas for engagement with china. straight. it continues to seek dialogue with china without pre conditions. not surprisingly, beijing condemned both the alliance and the submarine deals war war. we are the leon kaden who attended the export of highly sensitive nuclear power spring technology by the united states and br

u. s. u k and australia have defended their new security alliance under which the australian government will be able to develop nuclear power submarines. it's seen as an effort to counter china's in.

u. s and the u. k. of stub to in the back in australia, the american choice to exclude the european ally and partner such as franz from a structuring partnership with australia at the time when we're facing unprecedented challenges in the, in the pacific region showed the lack of coherence that france can only note and regret. so instead, australia has signed this new security packed with the united kingdom and the united states over growing concerns over china. now when that deal was struck, all of the leaders talked about shared values, shared interest, and the need to secure peace and stability and the indo pacific region. now, under the best deal, all 3 nations will share the defense. state are and secrets you name it on strategic areas including artificial intelligence, a cyber security and of course, and you can defend now of radia will acquire a new killer submarine, make it the 7th country in the world to acquire. and you can a sub, in fact, the only other time that the united states offered suc

u. s. u k doesn't seem to have suffered quite as much of an indignity if you like, least diplomatically speaking is the u. s. and stillia have what's the reaction in the u. k to all of this? well, i think the reaction in the u. k. depends on ready which parts of the cohens area you're looking at and how they feel about france and how they feel about the current british government. there are sections of society and political life in the u. k. that likes getting out the nose is the french and therefore is, i think, amused by what's been going on. certainly thing. so the french being a little over hysterical throwing that toys out of the prime box. i'd say there are a great many people here who also think that the french have been very hard done by and this new situation. and that's the, the deal that's been done between the united states, the u. k. and australia. although it has advantages for the certainly has not perhaps been the best handled. and the french could be considered to be rightly ag

u. s. and the u. k. today they work within their own proper alliance. the u. k . australia and the and the u. s. trust themselves more than the new trust countries like france or other ones, community or even germany. don't forget the manual macro said a couple years ago that data was brain dead. even donald trump said that nato isn't working, as it was initially supposed to be working or alliances within the alliance. what kind of lion is this? where people use drop or contracts are taken over us doesn't have, didn't have a allied, it only has targets or it has vessels. australia, the us on france repeatedly cited the suppose it's security threat from beijing in the in the pacific region where china is the dominant power and the signing of the orchestra security pipe companies. just months off, the britain infuriated beijing by sending its war ships to the south china sea to join, so called freedom of navigation operations, led by washington and china has condemned the new lions calling it a throwback to the cold war. countess should not build exclusionary blo

u. s. u. k and australia has left it out of a pacific security pack that is being seen as an effort to counter china bus to revive and make the rather embarrassing flip off while announcing that deal. and finally, forgetting the name of the australian prime minister and make it bores when i want to thank have trouble down under thank you very much, appreciate it. mr. prime is also on the program on our tea, while european markets, real from wednesdays, record search and the natural gas price of critics where the policy missteps are harming energy security. and finally, russia's parliamentary election is now just a day away here went into national. we'll bring you the full breakdown at this hour throughout the 3 days of voting. ah, well, a very warm welcome to you for all of us here at the international in moscow with so just off at 9 am now on thursday morning. we do start this program with breaking news from western russia. we understand a man hunt is under way in the vote on hedge region. afte

because even though the prices are at 400 percent in europe, and even more in the u. k. s because they're not that still less than what asia pays. so you're just going to have to we have, we already have this with labor, right? labor prices, american workers, european workers had to compete with asian workers. and that meant their, their wages had to go down. now the asian consumer is willing to pay a lot more for natural gas. so we're going to pay more as well in terms of the u. k . though the regulator set the price about how much the energy providers are allowed to charge. so far, 8 companies have gone us and about for about are likely to go bus this week in terms of providers because they can't raise their prices. so they're just losing money, transporting this natural gas into the homes of residences, right? about the money printing. it's causing inflation. but more so in the u. k than elsewhere because they have the problem of distribution, transportation and logistics. because it's an island, right? so they add the cost onto that, and since they have to go through t

u. k and the u. s. on vell orcus, it's a defense agreement aimed at countering china in the in the pacific. bought it, cuts france out of a 2016 deal to build diesel power submarines for australia in favor of nuclear power tech from the u. k. and us it li, frank, tens of billions of dollars poorer, and it's being seen by paris as a gross deception by friends and allies. you muscle, the therapy lies. yeah, there has been duplicity. there has been a major break of trust. there's been contempt. so it's not going well between us, not at all. still there are those who think parents is overreacting last year. i think, you know, it was not necessary. i mean, we have never recalled. previously, i was better from washington and it's really very bad manners from the americans to, to was wrong. i mean, really, america as been treating my call, i can and the dog and song, but it's only bad manners. and i think that vengeance is a meal that should be served cold after you. k or francis sped london, the sting of pull

u. k and the u. s. helping it develop a nuclear power submarine fleet, which is going to have a massive impact on the in the pacific region, particularly with regard to the strategic conflict that is continuing the, the u. s. and the u. k. already maintain a significant naval presence in the region. but injecting into that nuclear power, australian submarine is certainly going to ratchet up the whole situation and actually bring this new cold war under the water as well as on top of it. now the answer is korea conducted ballistic missile tests within hours of each other, in a sign of escalating tensions that are said at launch missiles from a train up for the 1st time. south korea meanwhile, reported its 1st test of a submarine launched missile. the international criminal court has approved an investigation into the so called war on drugs in the philippines. judges said president rodrigo deter it is cracks and cannot be seen as a legitimate law enforcement operation. prosecutors say civilians have been

denounced the off steel saying that it is an escalation leading to a kind of new cold war made in the us u. k. s. trading nuclear submarine collaboration has seriously undermined regional peace and stability intensify the arms race and undermined international nuclear non proliferation efforts. so quite a bit of skepticism from international observers about joe biden speech. this was his 1st speech to the un general assembly. we wanted to bring him more on this agenda as chris hedges. also austria's former foreign minister current can esl tell this there's a divide these days between what the white says and does not trust the bilateral new sense. now that so will fly away by a phone call that has been announced further than 5 minutes. it will remain and i'm pretty sure that it will have further implications for free trade for the various council between the us and european union. if that is one country that really implies politics and it's, it's honestly, it's from to all that we also have to at the fragmentation that there are insights made. there is a kind of feigning on the part of the, by th
