u. s. actions so far had been inescapable anywhere in the world. so right now, you know, the, the u. s. record and involvement in these international hot wars and conflicts isn't really boating. well, with the, the younger generation of people right across the middle east, across asia, across africa, or one might just say altogether, the, the global south china doesn't have the same hawkish, stigma attached to it. how will the u. s. image globally impact the forthcoming future generations of world leaders as compared to china's what will this image shape the future of geo politics? i'm so glad you asked that. i'm an american and i, i, i big my country to, to do a pivot here and to clean up at zack, i mean, 20 years in afghanistan. and how did that turn out? i had tried to process this now when i was 21 years old. the afghani tree treated me so wonderfully. no, i'm serious. now, look at 20 years of wrath of american ravaged in afghanistan. hillary clinton said my war about going in the libya. how's that war turned out? there's slave market. there's women being bought and sold and slave

u. s. had a plan to pull vietnam into the american orbit and has been somewhat successful when other vietnam has a contentious relationship with china. so the us thinking strategically geopolitically decided to reach out to vietnam more and has had a mixed success in doing so. now with laos, lau still maintains military ties to russia. i economic ties to china is part of the belt road initiative. the new china allows railway that opened in december and transports both goods and people at very, very high speeds where the technologies have compatible with chinese best technology. and we know that while the united states has no high speed railway, china leads the world in high speed railway. and so they've got, this is very impressive railway between china allows as part of china's economic development approach and about that rail professor at like he said, china in december of 2021 has completed this 5 year rail project from there you non province into laos, as capital city of van john, the $6000

u. s. had seen the 2 party system produce chaos and a stalemate. while real life issues they care about become increasingly urgent. so young people will have to make frustrating compromises with their boots in the selection until the system or the parties adapt to how these new voters think about politics. from sport now and in sunday's buddhist league, reaction lever cozen. and when your billing faced off at opposite ends of the table, while levels and found themselves in a surprising relegation battle, when young have been on buoyant form sitting at the top of the table for 7 straight match days. but things went a little differently in their latest encounter. ah, lay the cruise and fans expected far more from their attain this season. and there, hoping things will finally click under new coach, shabby alonzo. yet during a di, 1st half, it didn't look like they were ready to kickstart. any kind of revival on yon's fans were equally unimpressed. one minute into the 2nd period, however, lay the crews and found their stride. robert andrew poking home

u. s. had been supporting resubmitted military dictatorship, which had ordered the cracked out of court in the netherlands, is convicted 3 men in absentia for their role in downing malaysia airlines flight m, age 17 over ukraine. 8 years ago. they include 2 former russian intelligence agents and the ukranian separatist leader. the 4th defendant has been acquitted. the passenger ship jet was shot down over eastern ukraine, killing all 298 people on board. a verdict he is in the making. after 68 hearings and 70000 pages of documents, a dutch court has issued its judgment on the downing of malaysian airlines flight mh 17 that apple is from all the court is of the opinion that m a 17 crashed you to the firing of a book me sail from a field in the paper, mice k region at oscar for and as a consequence, all the 283 passengers and 15 crew lost their lives. the court ruled that the passenger jet was brought down by a russian made missile supplied from russia and fired by an armed separatist group under

u. s. had promised 8 systems 8 better than us ams, and then spain had promised these italian built espied a system router, a bit older, bit less technologically advanced, but had they wanted it, it's more, at least it's believed to be that there are more of these around in europe and they could be easily if it proved to be success delivered later is all about preventing this damage to ukraine's infrastructure that really has left hundreds of 1000 millions of people at risk are very, very cold winter with his repeated attacks on the energy system on the heating plants we heard just a few hours ago from the head of the company that deals with caves heating that if russia's, it holds back from further attacks on ukraine's power stations, that within 2 weeks they could kind of restore electricity supply. right now we have 3 for our power cuts every day in care of. so basically the 2 weeks needed. but i think very few people here believe that russia is going to somehow suddenly stop these attacks gi

u. s. had no firing influence both and she laid on, but in my law i'm probably new and he got out what. but as later times i won't say they've been more constructive and they are very strong values regarding lever the freedom of speech, open democracy, a capitalistic markets. and that, that could change because for the chinese, those are not all the same priority that they care more about the economic prosperity and economic into relationships than human rights or democracy. and that for the us is a concern. and definitely that is achieved regarding some of this issues in the region. yes, definitely. sounds like a different goals from 2 different countries here to different world leaders. last thing, one, what are your projections about latin america and the direction they will move in the 21st century? will they be moving towards the east and away from the us? the chinese influence is going to grow significantly all the embarrassments regarding electric vehicles. all the transport trains, the

u. s. purchasing the route and china is huge, footprint in south america is obviously undeniable. as you had pointed out, is the u. s. d o. d being paranoid about beijing's influence and their motives in latin america? i think that are practical reasons why china is looking at the region. one of their main concerns is, is having sources of foodstuffs and latin america is very rich on that regard. know we have got all, we have chicken, we have so many beans. and most of that stuff that the chinese people might need can be source from up in america. and that he'd like to make an advantage on some of the raw materials that china lacks, can be found. like, you know, me because it was the case of lithium in mexico. what is the case of gold in columbia or iraq from, from brazil. so you have one of the countries that have some of the key inputs for the chinese economy. and it makes a lot of sense for those relationships to go into it is stronger and deeper economic if the relationship between china and america. ready unfortunately, the u. s. as they can a step by and we've, there is a void, it alwa

u. s. had a better performance in this game and they deserve to in what i mean when i got so upset, i have no words. they could have moved gone in the tournament, but they didn't have a good performance. our team last in the game. i'm sad. all the match has even bridged diplomatic, divides at the united nations headquarters in new york. diplomats that came together to cheer and unite over football and 0 as kristen salumi was there. the united nations is no stranger to political rivalries. but what happens when 2 countries who notoriously, don't see ida, i are competing against each other in the world cut? well, it brings a huge crowd to the delegates lounge here at the united nations. this is a place where diplomats normally meet over coffee. and while we didn't see some american flags in the crowd, no sign of either the us or the iranian ambassador here, the guitar ambassador told me a times like this. it's important to put politics aside and not to diplomacy taking place this alien, a lot of

u. s. had to to, this is what we gathered from yes, last night statements from pentagon, of course, the united states and the s t f partnership is based on the fight against isola. but let's remember, turkey is also a part of the international coalition in the fight against iso, but at the s d. f side has always claimed that since the air strikes began in northern syria, they have claimed that to kill target al whole camp. and all those i, some fighters who are under detention there will be fleeing away. so as stiff is all is trying to remind itself to the west that i'm your partner in the fight against i. so and when to care attacks these areas or try to capture these areas from our hands, you will be facing the vendor of iso again. so i had an al jazeera, a jury in the us finds the leader of a fall right group guilty of seditious conspiracy to keep don trump in power and from what close to fobs. fans of the world comp and the cost of show off there regionally inspired football fashion. ah, an

u. s. had completed germany. and so it has been using the instruments that it mastered during the cold war, the cia, the cobra operations, the regime change that it conducted it economic warfare for. busy in other capacities, assassinations, and it continues to do that. and of course, in case of iran, it's an open wound because of course, iran under the shot was a u. s. best friend in the region and was the 5th largest army in the world. and overnight, the people over through the dictator and the tyrant, the shot who was backed by the us back by the cia, close relationships with israel and other countries. ah, and of course, if they had a popular revolution. so of course, the u. s. thinks that can go in and it has done so for the past few decades in libya, in syria, in iraq, afghanistan, in yemen, supporting the saudis, and the emeralds. but now did you learn that iran is a, is a tough nut to crack and you run will resist to the hill against any further intervention? here and are quite right. i said, sir, i mean

you could see an economic boom and, wow, if we had done that 30 years ago at economic prosperity in the south, you know the plot of illegals into the u. s. they're not coming here because they want to be americans. but because there's lack of prosperity in their own countries, if we had expanded that prosperity south 30 years ago, it would be a model of how to do the, the world economic and political balance in a north south view rather than just east west. now on that note, steve, the last thing here, given china's official position on the war in ukraine, is neutral president. she has struck strong words against america sanctions that have have global consequences and a lot of blow back, at least economically we're seeing so far. china has not back down from they're not so tacit backing of russia. final thoughts on that? well, i think, you know, you look at the sanctions and the fact that they have not really heard russia, they've heard america and the global economy a lot more than they've heard russia. russia is looking for new markets for their oil exports. china is desperately wanting oil, they're call. so i think there's a, there'

u. s. had to to, this is what we gathered from a yes, lots nice statements from pentagon, of course the in the united states and the sd of partnership is based on the fight against i. so, but let's remember to gaze all so what part of the international coalition in the fight against i sold but at the s d f side has always claimed that since the air strikes began in northern 0, they have claimed that true kia will target l whole camp and all those i so fighters who are under detention, there will be fleeing away. so as stiff is all trying to remind itself to the west that i am your partner in the fight against i. so and when to care attacks these areas or try to capture these areas from our hands, you will be facing the danger of iso again and maybe a people with will talk to europe through a to get at this is the image that we understand on the other on the other, so when you come to the ground on syria, there are so many players including russia, united states, the syrian government, the syria

u. s. had just approved a $1000000000.00 package of military aid and just a weeks off the biden that signed a staggering $40000000000.00 support package. nevertheless, the nbc report goes on to state their relations have since improved. when i spoke with the executive vice president of the razor center, earl rasmussen, who believes the timing of the phone call leak is highly political. this happened in june, so we're talking 1345 month later. and just the week before the election. this was, i wouldn't doubt that it may be of happened. i could picture that. and they are fairly ungrateful and greedy the as far as the government. but it is, yes, highly political. i think the timing of this lee, it's there and tended to, to show that no, biden, the administration, the democratic party, they are concerned. they're watching the spending. they are trying to put limits on this. but yet we still support ukraine, so it's trying to then not say that it's just an open book and we've got 70 percent of the w

u. s. has announced it will supply equipment worth $53000000.00 to help repair ukraine's electricity grid. earlier stoughton berg had assured romania that its air force and troops were being backed up by extra reinforcements. romania has u. s. f. 16 aircraft that are replacing outdated, former soviet megs and their pilots saw fully stretched. everything is under pressure. so we weren't timely mean to though them we fight to again the 2nd. romania coordinates with other nato forces in policing. its aerospace defense to the skies above nato's eastern flank has never been so intense nato faces of colossal challenge. not just in the air with on the ground to russia would call this escalation, nato prefers the word de terence here us in romanian forces on exercise. recently. there were tests of aaron missile defenses, but ukraine is saying, such weaponry is desperately needed it side of the border and the supply line of weapons that are available. this to slow decisions on weapons decision on one hand. production line weapons in western countries have to be made faster. the quandary nato faces is that it won't take a dir

u. s. consumers had the chance to buy their products and bring them home and eat them several times in a row, perhaps in a week or 2. i think that their nature as a processed food with a distinctive flavor, they kind of wore out their welcome at the dinner table and didn't ever reach that goal of being something people might eat 2 or 3 times a week. compared to the beef or chicken or pork, they intended to replace that they kind of play just one know where real meat absorbs flavors, seasonings marinate. you can cook it. a lot of different ways and or people found out just wasn't an equal substitute or equal exchange. what about the price? i mean $2.00 more per pound than lean beef padding, for example. and sales dropped 43 percent last quarter of the prior quarter. the company blaming a challenging macro environment, but everyone's facing that right now. does the company need to bite the bullet and, and lower prices further? so there's 2 different things going on, right? it's not just one quarter in declining sales, we've been tracking consumer purchasing and 10 around protein choices an

u. s. marines dead. while the pentagon has been criticizing china for focusing on the chaotic withdrawal, the u. s. republicans had been pending the blame for what happened squarely on the biden administration. the biden administration repeatedly misled the american people about the real situation on the ground in cobble issuing public statements that were in direct opposition to the internal reports being sent by the state department and u. s. military. at one point, the state department spokesperson net price was encouraging people to make their way to the airport and telling the press the evacuation was efficient and effective . but the airport gates were closed and internal med, most were talking about how they were too many dead bodies at the airport. and they don't know how to deal with all of them. well, they get more on the story now. we're going across live to former c i a analyst, larry johnson. thanks for joining us on the program. mr. johnson. so what do you make of the defense department heading out on china over the u. s. is withdrawal from afghanistan? is a sent, excuse me, it's a symptom of the ski

think you can see an economic boom and, wow, if we had done that 30 years ago at economic prosperity in the south, you know the plot of illegals into the u. s. they're not coming here because they want to be americans. but because there's lack of prosperity in their own countries, if we had expanded that prosperity south 30 years ago, it would be a model of how to do the, the world economic and political balance in a north south view rather than just east west. now on that note, steve, the last thing here, given china's official position on the war in ukraine, is neutral president. she has struck strong words against america sanctions that have have global consequences and a lot of blow back, at least economically we're seeing so far. china has not back down from there. not so tacit backing of russia. final thoughts on that? well, i think, you know, you look at the sanctions and the fact that they have not really heard russia, they heard america and global economy a lot more than they've heard russia. russia is looking for new markets for their oil exports. china is desperately wanting oil. they're wanting call, so i think there's a, there'

u. s. hadthing to contradict poland's assessment that ukrainian missile was caused by air defense missile. ukraine says it is ready to cooperate in the polish and investigating what happened. but the nato secretary general said today that it is not ukraine's fault and that russia bears ultimate responsibility. for russia's reaction to all this we turn to international correspondent fred pleitgen joins us from moscow. what is the latest from the kremlin? >> hi there, anderson. the russians are trying to capitalize on all of this. they are calling this a polish, ukrainian plot and a provocation on the part of those two countries to try to draw this into a wider conflict between russia and nato. it is quite interesting because the spokesman for dimitri peskov came out today and he actually praised president biden's early reaction to this. although president biden had said that it did appear as though the missile fragments that landed in poland probably originated from ukraine and were not fired of

u. s had several chances today but could not get on the board and the game ended in a little nail draw .america's future in the 2022 world cup comes down to tuesday, and their fate is entirely in their own hands. they take on iran. and if the u. s wins, they move on to the knockout round. they lose their world cup is over that all important matches tuesday. 11 am right here on ktvu, of course for everything world cup, including all the great watch parties in the bay area had to ktvu .com or our news app to stay up to date with all the world cup excitement. the protests spreading across iran have now reached the world cup fans inside the stadium for iran's match against wales held up a jersey with masa amini 22 printed on it. another shirt with the words women life freedom common chant at iranian protests. those fans were later confronted by police. the 22 year old too many died in the custody of the country's so called morality, police. iran's national team refrain from singing the national anthem ahead of their opening match, but players did sing along on friday as fans jeered from the

u. s. s. all was devastated by well the, it either states last about 400000 people had the brit sloss less than the americans did. and the soviet suffered 27000000 deaths. mm. mm 27000000 is an incredible number. with john kennedy k, american university of commencement address it back to 63. he said that what the soviet suffered and world war 2 was the equivalent of the entire united states east of chicago. have you been destroyed? mm hm. initially the plan to attack the u. s. l was code named trojan overtime, devolved into pincher bush, lego crankshaft, half moon, cold wheel off tackle and cherry a. dia, december 19th, 1949. so the adoption of the best known plan to wipe out the soviets operation, dropshot, date of attack, january the 1st 1957. mm. the plan outlines the complete annihilation of the usa under the democratic guise of liberating the nations from communism. but those very nations would be wiped out along with communism in the 1st phase of authoration, dropshot in visits dropping 300 nuclear and 250000 tons of conventional bombs on the soviet union. in 100 soviet cities were pre se

u. s. had always told us, i'm told the media community and the public at large that they are seeing no movement from russia on using russian tactical nuclear weapons. if this is meeting is happening, does that mean that perhaps they're getting into intelligence that tells them differently? know, well i think what it means is they're getting intelligence that potent is acting radically. and yes, strike we have not seen or wash and military do anything that would put them in a position to deploy their or use their nuclear weapons and ukraine. what again seems to be acting more and more radically and. busy so i think that's the rebel. we requested this meeting. this was our, our initiative. and so i think they want to reiterate ok. we know you're not more, we know the military is not, would you better convey the president and that even in thinking about it, what the consequences would, would be. and again, given our elections and last year, who grown up in the united states, it's hard to interpret
