a highly anticipated response and a fairly predictable one about the u. s. a. nato have formerly rejected moscow. sweeping security demands refusing, among other things, to rule out of future nato membership for ukraine. instead, washington offers what it calls a serious diplomatic path out of the crisis. in recent weeks, russia has math, 100000 troops near its border with ukraine staring fears of another invasion. a military exercise on the ukrainian border. russia is flexing its muscles while washington has handed over a written response to moscow's demand or response to russia. reflects what i said in heave berlin and geneva. last week. we're open to dialogue. we prefer diplomacy and we're prepared to move forward. where there is the possibility of communication cooperation. if russia deescalate its aggression toward ukraine, stop the inflammatory rhetoric and approaches, discussions about the future security in europe. in a spirit of reciprocity, our responses were fully coordinated with ukraine in our european allies and partners with whom we've been cons

u. s. its allies and china, particularly over taiwan. and despite a recent telephone conversation between president putin and president biden, mistrust is growing between the u. s. and russia. with some in the us intelligence community, predicting and invasion of ukraine could be imminent. the un secretary general antonio terrace is starting his 2nd 5 year term and the job this week. the world welcomes 2022 with our hopes for the future being tested by deepening poverty and worsening inequality. by an, an equal distribution of coffee vaccines by climate commitments that for short and but ongoing conflict division and museum formation. the secretary general has been criticized by some for being too cautious, reluctant to speak out, particularly on human rights issues. but his supporters say a secretary gentle coney achieve things if he has the full backing of the permanent members of the security council and their division right now leaves him walking a tightrope. james space out, his era at the united nations caught in canada as ordered iran to pay $8

the u. s. a is facing the highest rate of inflation in 40 years with more than half of americans saying that they think the biden administration is only making things worse. it's been a terrible year for inflation. it's up around 8 percent or higher. this is the levels that we haven't seen since back in the jimmy carter years in the seventy's when the government just prints money out of thin air and spends it on things and gives it to people. it causes the value of your money to go down. that's what's happening in america. the government is printing money, spending more than it brings in, and actually the proposals to deal with it mostly are going to make things worse. the u. s. a leaving afghanistan after 20 years of military presence forced washington to answer some questions about whether hundreds of billions of taxpayer dollars were basically left to waste. not forgetting the countless lives lost on both the american and afghan side. ah the . the extraordinary success of this mission was due

well, form a u. s. senior security policy analyst michael molig spoke to the program about those tensions. and he said, a less belligerent approach from the west would be a means of de escalation. i've heard from diplomats, russian diplomats and in the past, where they say that the united states diplomatically seems to always be talking down to their, to, to russian diplomats. and there and there, and this is another example of that, that we will do this and we won't do that, that's off the table. and this is the problem. if you're going to take everything off the table before you even begin discussions than what sort of talk about. and so this is basically my washington through brussels, trying to lead this process. and i think that it, that moscow could reverse that trend and become much more assertive and thereby take over the initiative and actually take control of events rather than always been reacting to events if at any moment that those channels are, are closed off. because of arrogance. or by

a fast. so as you to be discussed as an emergency meeting, the west african leaders on friday. the u. s. u. s. a demanding the immediate release of deposed president walker boring now u. s. supreme court justice stephen breyer will retire at the end of his car. and tom bryan is one of 3 remaining liberal justices in the conservative majority court . he is 83 years old, is retirement look of president joe biden, his 1st chance to nominate a new liberal judge to the country's highest judicial body. join now by a white house correspondent, kimberly alcott from washington. and i suppose are all eyes now and who the u. s. president nominate to replace him. how significant is the timing of his retirement is very significant because this is something that the biden administration is keen on doing because they want to ensure that they can continue the ideological makeup of the supreme court. that as you point out right now, currently tilts republican are conservative and they don't want to see that go any further. and so to ensure that with the mid term elections in november and the prospect that po

you feel that you need to make these troop deployments now, when really the security posture of the u. s. a. nato really hasn't changed over the past couple of years, much to see money. because i think the u. s. department should analyze the methods of c n n in regard to accuracy. you say we're going to attack ukraine despite multiple explanations that we won't be saying this will happen. you then ask why now, when do we not attack? it's a strange question because we've caused repeated all fundamental point that never ending native expansion to the east should be stopped. and nibbling, can repeated his position on the right to choose alliances. asked him how the u. s . plans to follow its obligation not to strengthen someone security at the expense of the security of others. he promised to explain the u. s. position on that 3rd gala rose press conference with follow up with one from us secretary of state anthony blinkin b. u. s. chief diplomat saying that the diplomatic route remained open to finding a solution to the tension between russia and the west. right now. he said that he received

now a reminder of the top stories were following for you, this l d, u. s. has rejected russia's demand to buy gig crime from future membership in nato in the state of washington has offered a new diplomatic path to the end of the crisis. russia has said its views have been ignored. we'll continue dodd archbishop of munich and said he takes moral responsibility but one step down after a damning report on clergy sex abuse and the 1980s report has faulted exploit benedict for his handling of several of these cases. while late the arch dies watching d w. news live from berkeley, and i'll be back at the top of the hour with more headlines. conflict, conflicts on with tim, sebastian is coming up next after a short break with ah, with who into the conflict zone with sebastian the streets of hong kong, a quiet these days. the pro democracy movements have been tamed. this week we talk for a 2nd time to regina, long time law maker in hong kong legislative council ahead of the prob, aging new people's party. what kind of future for hong kong now? conflict with d. w. wi

a triggering event? because it affected europe. when the u. s. puts missiles with a flight time of 6 minutes to their soviet targets, which is what happened in 1982 in all of the european countries, the europeans then realize, well, wait a flight of war on our soil and it's going to be a nuclear war we are kind of like bait and we don't want to be bait. we don't want to be in the middle of your geo strategic designs which could likely lead to our deaths. and so that really became a dominant political event in the 1980s. and i think right now if, if we get past this stage of the crisis crane and wiser head start to articulate the message for europeans. the message should be, if there is a conflict at the end of nord stream to the americans are actually saying they may destroy. can you imagine, destroy nordstrom to using military means? i mean, what would that actually mean for europe? it would be devastation, it would be catastrophe. and again, for what, for what for the, for the round government in ukraine that came to power as a consequence of

the u. s. a. nato have each delivered their response is to russian security demand. submit a stand off over you crank top, american diplomat antennae blank in said the u. s. made no concessions on moscow's main demand that ukraine not join nato. meanwhile, nato secretary general in stoughton burke said the alliance would not compromise on its core principles. more in depth news on the day coming up next with with ah ah, farm, the 1st they meet in japan. school kids are learning early on where their food actually comes from. and to respect, nature is provision the result, a healthier diet and less obesity. school can take. so good global 3000 in 60 minutes on d w. o. ah, imagine so many portions of love. so now in the world right now, the climate change, if any, off the story, this is my plan, the way from just one week. how much work can really get we still have time to go on going all with his subscriber all morning was like a soccer is a sport of colors and the children in this mountain village

so how the headlines and al jazeera, the u. s. a. set a new global record with more than a 1000000 new coven 19 cases registered in a day. the huge jump is to you in part to delays and reporting over the new year weekend. but the u. s. has seen an average of 480000 daily infections over the past week. so 35000000 people not vaccinated. and let me be absolutely clear we have in hand all.

yeah, you want a job get vaccinated to of trade between canada and the u. s. happened via trucking according to a trade group. the eastern border transport coalition, supporters of the protests say that limiting any of these drivers could mean food shortages, but government officials call that fear mongering. equally alarming is this the promotion by some elected officials that there is a risk of food shortage. trying to spread the fear and panic among canadians. the canadian trucking alliance has come out against the convoy protests. adding that both the us and canada have implemented vaccine requirements for entry and that the industry must adopt and comply. police in ottawa say they are prepared for the arrival of between one and 2000 protesters on saturday. now, brad is serious business and france rising costs were of such a fuel the french revolution. now bread is once again, causing an uproar. a supermarket chain has low and lower the price of their pick out to just $0.29. but guess our best seller in this bakery and northern paris. but at one year of 2

and we have to, to the national security adviser, even there is a u. s. s joint strike carrier strike fleet right now, sailing to china's maritime borders. and even boris johnson is sending his aircraft carrier to china. i mean, as a, as the basis increases, the number of troops increase around russia. as the navies of nato approached china . wouldn't you, me advising alliances with china? i very strongly believe that it's not in russia's long term interest to get closer to china by splitting away from, from the potential for closer relations with the west that we had after the collapse of the soviet union. i think we've lost a lot of time and opportunity and yeah, the way we were russia tried that. and as we know, the agreement with global job is broken. and we've seen u. s. policy as regards a iraq, afghanistan, and libya. syria. we've seen what nato thinks of relations with russia, a alliance nato remains the defense of alliance. and i would just say, and perhaps you and i should discuss this at greater length and in a future broadcast. i think russia's

u. s. or nato won't expand or eastwards. and would that ukraine wont access, and nato the u. s is saying that will not happen. a compromise the u. s. is putting forward is that it would, it would give a heads up to russia each time. for example, there's some sort of military joint exercises or what is blad at in the days ahead or into years ahead. so finding a compromise on that will be extremely difficult. and i think a lot of people, especially here in your grade when he speak to them, they saying that the issue is not only about ukraine and russia, the issues about do u. s. and russia finding some sort of compromise when it comes to this part of the world. not only about. b ukraine. all right, how the other made their law for us in kiev? let's go over to dos jibari now, who's in a moscow dorsey, as what it was mentioning, the russian foreign minister says 11 will be meeting with the u. s. secretary of state on friday. what a rush, an official saying about that meeting? well, according to the foreign ministry spokesperson, this upcoming meeting will determine the next steps in the guarantees that this countri

he is a former adviser on russia at the u. s. state department, he's currently a senior political scientist at the rand corporation specializing in security in arms control in the former soviet union. he's also the author of the book. everyone loses the ukraine crisis and the ruinous contest for post soviet eurasia. ms. tariff, it's good to have you on the program you use in the title of your book ruinous. that is maybe an apt description of what the reality could be if, if this trajectory continues between russia and the us, would you agree? absolutely. i mean, i think we are potentially on the verge of the largest conflict in europe, and certainly since the wars in the phone use lava and maybe even since world war 2 and given the nature of the russian build up. and i think that would be a ruinous outcome for certainly for ukraine 1st and foremost. but for russia in the west as well. i mean, the rhetoric that we're hearing immediate sounds a lot like what we heard in 1962, also 1987. but there's one huge difference. just last w

i think it's a mistake for the u. s. make, it's a mistake for mobile stability. certainly it's a mistake for the people of afghanistan. well in fact, as trumps feel, the date of a withdrawal was made the 1st you don't think that makes any difference. now look, i think all by and did was extended a couple months and it showed how, how little planning had been done, either by the trump administration or by for the execution to withdraw itself. and i should note my own polling on this subject. i think of firms what other people have observed that while at the beginning, many people said the withdrawal itself was executed poorly and no question about that. but it's caused them to rethink the consequences. the withdrawal itself, the return of taliban to power, the greater risk of terrorist attack, obviously calls into question the legitimacy of the withdraw decision. fundamentally, i think people now realize we are less secure after the withdrawal than we were before the withdrawal. you said the abiding, changed in that answer in a way, what do you, i mean, he said wh

it will be met with swift, severe, and a united response from united states and are partisan allies. u. s. intelligence says russia has already amassed at least a 100000 troops on its western border and is moving weapons into allied belarus, north of ukraine. the u. s. and russian positions are clearly far apart to blink and allow for making very little real progress. but the 2 men did agree to continue to pursue diplomacy as a way of the escalating, a crisis which could lead to war. it was on the shores of lake geneva, the talks between the u. s. and russia led to the end of the cold war, decades on how old rivalries have resurfaced. both sides accuse each other. regression and relations are dangerously deteriorated. the outlook for the coming weeks is to natasha butler. just sarah geneva, the build up of russian troops on the border, has raised fears of conflict for many ukrainians, and the 1st shipment of additional u. s. military aid, $200000000.00 worth of equipment has arrived in the capital cave. but hundreds of people have rallied in the city calling for the escalation. ah, for mo

what was the view from the u. s. a. nato, after they held a series of meetings with their russian counterparts. on the one hand, they repeatedly said that they were there to find solutions on the other. that solution was some have suggested one sided. russia has to make giant strides towards reducing into military presence anyway, mean ukraine. if there is to be a di escalation of tensions for the russian delegation than double speak was too much. we are fed up with loose dog, half promises, misinterpretation of what happened, that different forms of negotiations have behind closed doors. we do not trust the other sites. so to see we need iron clad. waterproof bulletproof, the legally binding guarantees not assurances, not safeguards guarantees. russia was also accused of not being serious about finding solutions to ease the frictions as it continued to deny its planning to invade ukraine. moscow say these are put for clear proposals before the meetings took place, outlining what assurances it wanted from the west for

u. s. took around a month over a month, in fact, to respond to russia's demands. but also, of course, you know, the u. s. and nato here, yesterday, rejecting russia's main demand for a stop to nato's eastern expansion. the kremlin today said, you know, that their views are not being taken into account, but i think that, that responds with hardly a surprise for russia. they, i think, went into these conversations about security guarantees. essentially, knowing that the west could never agreed to no further. nato expansion towards the east, and they've been hearing that in the last few weeks in various rounds of talks from various western officials. i think the strategy going into this was really to play a high stakes game of poker. almost a bargain, a little bit too high and see what they can get from the west. the only question is now, you know, with the main demand from the russian decide side not being fulfilled by the west. what can they do to basically not lose faith. yeah, that's right, and the next question being what comes now the world white similarly, does

this is a not unexpected. the u. s. issues are the sorts of travel warnings to its citizens for countries all around the world all the time because it feels that it has a primordial duty to keep americans out of harm's way. it shouldn't have any real impact on the relationship between the 2 countries. earlier in the week after a both of these a who the attacks on to us on targets inside the u. e. the u. s. was a very quick to say that it was a continuing its strong defense relationship with the emerald t, a military providing training and material to help them intercept any possible attacks from who the territory. but of course, the bigger thing that the u. s. government is concerned about is the fact that the civil war in yemen has not been resolved. and it is trying to a push for a quick resolution of that war while also are reminding its allies own notably the saudis, who have been leading the push back as it were, to refrain from doing anything that would harm yamini civilians. honduras is sworn in the country show

u. s. history and the history with the merger dean. isn't this another case of a terrible blowback that isis k is actually a kind of descendant of british and u. s. policy in syria since 2011? well, i don't think so. i mean, i think what happened in to take it back to the iraq syria theater is that after brock obama withdrew american forces from iraq in 2011. because really what could go wrong? everything? everything was taken care of. that's when ice this arose in western iraq and, and eastern syria. and we had to go back in to counter this new threat or more virulent form of al qaeda. so i hardly think that it was in reaction to our withdrawal that we saw isis arise. i think it was the spread of this terrorist mentality which, which was a courtesy thing to read. of course, one can say that then it's still a descendant of u. s. u k policy, because we invasion of iraq. i mean, i, i, the, the, i way with them. i, maybe it all goes back to british imperialism in 1000. everything does of. uh huh. know that this is more recent over the, the 2001 war i should. i mean,
