schmidt futures, asia fellow at the international strategy form of a warm welcome to all of you, william. first of all, tell us how the u. s. managed to a mass as extraordinary amount of debt. $31.00 trillion dollars is more than most of us. can even imagine it's a phenomenal number. and when you think in terms of trillions of dollars, it's really hard to run your head around it. one of the things we have to remember is that governance finance themselves, either through taxes and or by borrowing. and what has happened is that the huge level of government expenditures, whether it's for welfare programs or for defense or just for government administration, has resulted in larger, larger governments, over time. and b, these larger governments have had to fund themselves, and they've not always raised taxes to balance the budget. and once you have a deficit, there's only one way to finance it and that is through borrowing. and so the u. s. deficits have accumulated over, over many, many decades and centuries are going back to the revolutionary days. and so big now have a position where the u. s. is borrowed enormous, not money

a diplomatic span between china and the u. s. beijing has criticized washington and its relations with africa after the us treasury secretary accused the country a failing to help zambia solve its debt problems. even if the u. s. one day solves its debt problem, it is not qualified to make groundless accusations against or press for other countries out of selfish interests because it cannot at all alleviate us. tremendous responsibility for the reason of the world debt issues. south african journalist, cadillac, i must say me breaks down the latest diplomatic, that between the us and china, the tensions between washington and beijing is based on the increasing geopolitical tensions between the current nations. i mean, washington is seeing beijing as a country that is making very big inroads within the african continent and is focused on that military power and the economic influence that it has on the continent. the also worried that the influence that china now has on africa will soon surpass that of the u. s. i mean the u. s. has gone on to accuse china off making inroads with regards to an unfair trade and also taking out to nat

the united states has a position the u. s. empire show us a has a position here that it must hide from its people. the information war of the united states is one that is used to hide from the actual american people. the truth here, the reality is your correct. there is a minority of the far right, fastest, still growing at the behest of the united states. and that by the support of the united states. but the actual numbers of people in the ukraine who are far right fast just aren't as high as many would think. however, they derive their power from the u. s. empire. empire, they were empowered after 2014, they were integrated into the military after 2014, when the u. s. took over. so the u. s. is fighting in information war 2, mainly to ensure that the american people cannot look at this conflict through historical context. because that would expose the extremely immoral in an unethical position that the united states is in here. you know, erin, if you about to go back to our guest in philadelphia, well, you know that there's the narrative.

u. s. secretaries of state hillary clinton said last month, u. s. a to ukraine is a quote, really good investment for the united states. they are not asking us to be there to fight their war. they're fighting it themselves. yeah. and big beneficiary of their fight is the u. s. which gets to tie up russia while breaking up russian european trade to the ultimate benefit of the u. s. apparently, ukraine is now realizing that it's getting used as a pawn and all of this and frustrations of ukrainian officials are becoming more apparent. the most important thing for us is to continue to receive the military assistance that we require because situations such as that in solid, dark, would have been avoided. you know, if we would receive those tanks. and since we are fighting the freedom war i, we are fighting not just for some cities and villages in the grant. we are fighting for calm on shared values. we're well named. we're currently carrying out nato's mission. they aren't shedding their blood, we're shooting ours. that's why we're using their weapons. sounds like ukraine is getting a little bit better and tired of paying a high price of doing th

u. s. strategy is to provoke a confrontation in the region. it shows one more and a whole range of continuing provocations from the us completely illegal. every one of them, along with the u. s. trainers that are in taiwan and it's, it's really a provocation. directed at china. the u. s. strategy is to attempt to provoke a confrontation with china. it's the same strategy that us nato pursued in ukraine toward russia. it's actually that $280000000.00 and much, much more. it's part of the stream of weapons, just pouring, being pumped in to taiwan. not the taiwan needs to defend itself. china certainly is not threatening taiwan, but it is asserting that taiwan is part of china. the one china policy understood around the world on air today is the premier of our team new show inland visions with host shawn thomas, sean travels across russia to break stereotypes and talk to those who have fresh ideas to share. his 1st stop is to admit, ne, no of gord to meet hockey legend, eager larry own of who, having finished a star studded career is now coaching this that he's local team. so where is he had a to next? stay tuned to find out really came her

a u. s. or a base in germany on friday voiced by washington's defense secretary. many of us for that today's, we will have a break school in the discussion about heavy metal pence. you did mention that at all. don't have any announcements to make on your launch. and you heard the, the german minister of defense say that, but not made a decision, a leopard. so no shiny new toys, just a lot of the hand me downs that had already previously been announced. now all eyes were also on nato defense ministers as they met at this ramstein airbase, near frankfort tom on friday. secretary lloyd austin, basically just use the opportunity to ask america's allies to toss more cash into the pot for the u. s. military industrial complex. oh, i mean ukraine military support spoken like a true board member temporarily. recused for 4 years by the way. and stockholder that he is now canada actually did that. by the way, canada bought a u. s. made miss how the veg system as a gift to ukraine. so they're basically throwing money at the u. s. military industrial complex for ukraine. and now austin

u. s. extended deterrence, that's the u. s. a decision to extend its nuclear umbrella use nuclear weapons in case south korea is attacked as has kind of come into question here. and the u. s. south korea alliance is in a little bit of a, a crisis in this regard. the u. s. will likely either have to provide a nuclear weapons to south korea, station them here, or at least deploy what are called strategic assets. more often, those are bombers and, and ships and submarines that carry nuclear weapons that could provide more of a message toward pyongyang over its continued nuclear and weapons. program developments. journalists, frank smith reporting from sol. thank you very much. well, russian authorities are continuing their repression of criticism of the invasion of ukraine. some parents have reported that their children are facing pressure at school where they are taught that the war is only a limited military operation. we spoke with one russian family who don't know if they will be able to stay. oh, for body. angelica music is the best way to unwind, to forget school and tr

but just to couple of days ago, space actually us company, flu, a u. s. s. and or to us as small as japanese and the russian a small student space states. so for whatever reason, and through whatever miracles they have been able to keep the space station corporation outside of all the conflicts that are going on elsewhere, the boy pulse, mostly new stuff to russia. safe. of course. no one knows how long how much longer that will survive, but it tells you that there's something special about space. and for example. ready taking the wrong picture, going also back to the, to the space junk issue. there isn't understanding those really are dates and space in which case manager was really in the same boat, one life boat, which is. ready corporate and everybody's in the same boat, everybody's in the boat. so there is this feeling or this, this is this idea that, that we resent is from, you know, or prevent some, some of us, at least from on simply being space for their own limited national benefits space. john junk doesn't discriminate. you may blow up somebody ord

and, and europe and other countries that look up to the us and they're just a bang. the u. s. whatever comes so that they can take the next actions against the independent nation until they could bring them to their knees and make another client state for the us. hundreds of pro asters have gathered in front of the swedish consulate indiscernible to express their anger on a recent burning of the koran. in stockholm. people in turkey's largest city burns a picture of the danish right wing activists who set fire to his lamb's holy book outside the turkish embassy in the sweetest capital on saturday. it is now the 2nd day of protest in turkey. slum sweden for allowing the koran burning to take place, giving protection to the person who did it. and others led to deepening tensions between the 2 countries. come stock on base to join nato. a move which needs anchor is approved. the riots have wrapped it in the u. s. city of atlanta after a police officer, a shelter and killed on environmental activists in a gun fire exchange, a demonstration over the death quickly descended into vi

a display of zalinski. his head in the u. s. capital was the 100000000000 to ukraine, not enough a republican congressman once to use taxpayer funds to install a bust of zalinski in the u. s. capital was an absolute disgrace of a bill that says legal media analyst line all told us that even though the landscape bust could appear in the capital, most americans don't even know where ukraine is and why the war is happening. i don't think most americans understand what this is about. i really don't and that's not the only thing that i think they may not know about. are they willing to fund the bust, for example, of zalinski compared to what he told me how many billions of dollars. yeah. a 100000000000, maybe to go to a war effort that nobody can explain that nobody can describe regarding a country that people can't find on the globe. i can't emphasize this enough. many people cannot find ukraine. never really heard of it. heard of it wasn't really sure about so i'm afraid to answer your question that yes, there is a possibility where people would say shore is for freedom. he's a he, he's them are a rather exciting romantic charac

u. s. irate today is a real risk to this announcements tell us war hartzell, how substantial is there. so yours in fletcher edition reduction act, 2 herbs, green energy ambitions. well, we already know that there's a few companies that already actually said, well, you know what, we'll 1st build a factory in the west because it's more attractive, they're the subsidy, the u. s. is doing on average, can cover up to one 3rd of your entire cost to actually build a battery factory in generally the us that's huge. right? and that's what we need to do in europe as well. i want to stress that it's not just about money. there's at least 3 things. pieces of this agenda 1st. let's continue lock in in ambitious green policies. they drive investment case, we have it for cost, we now need to do it for trucks. secondly, we need to get things done faster in europe. so we need to have some kind of green simplification agenda, so it's faster to build a battery factory than a cold factory, europe, and finally, money, joy, amani? just to we, julia, just just her interject here when it comes to supplying su

us officials. i don't think there's a real stomach in the us to expand u. s. involvement u. s. role in the, in the conflict and ukraine. and while there may be some efforts to, to send more weapon rate. i think there are louder calls in the u. s. for more transparency and accountability for the money. it's already been dispatched for weapons and $800000000000.00 plus has been spent. i think us taxpayers and certainly a new republican controlled congress are asking for more details about where the money is gone. it's interesting to say that see, because we know that while we've just had the u. s. a public and defense official called for an instant delivery of all necessary weapons, you claim to combat russia. but does that means like get the weapons out? and that's why par hands clean, or does that mean something else? all the, all the room public is more invested somehow to i think i bore to me a lot of the republicans are in the pockets of the defense industry who make a lot of donations. and certainly provide a lot of financial support over public in san democrats. and wit
