u. s. obviously has communicate a clear, had demonic policy. and this is also the problem why it wants to, it will prevents their parents from them or to find your ties. because as long as you have successive relies on it use economy, then there will be able do next excerpt or come marketing to political influence. now, but in order for it be in for washington to keep this european independence, it also applies to americans have to push to europeans to not get anymore. chinese technologies, no more russian energy or weapon systems, no mountain road, no arctic corridor with rush hour, no investment agreement with china, no common banks payment system. because the songs are constantly relying on your, on the u. s. and they can extend exactly sorry, the over europe. so for example, in the us dollar, and i can't say written reflections. if i can extend what you were that were saying they're glen to damian here. so if the bridesmaid comes back into mine, is it the washington funds europe, they'll continue. always be a bridesmaid and then an old maid

u. s. is obviously in a new phase in which it's trying to pretend that it can move forward to help the afghan people without touching the tale bond. and so what it's doing is raising the assets in the us banks over $9000000000.00. the world bank money for afghanistan and a trust fund, the i m f, which had $450000000.00 in special drawing right there was supposed to go to afghanistan. and all of this money is being stuffed. in the meantime, there is an economic collapse in afghanistan, which was so dependent on foreign money coming in. the banks have run out of cash. the workers in the health care system and the teachers are not getting paid. and there is a harsh winter coming up in which people will starve. and so i think the american people ought to be concerned not only about the chaos to exit, but what has happened since in the u. s. cutting off the funds that are not for the taliban government, therefore the afghan people and should be released. right. but meanwhile, are made colors, add a attributed his decision to a new phase and us out good policy. what do you think he meant by that? w

u. s. it says, obviously it's following events very closely. are the question of whether there's going to be some form of us security involvement in releasing these missionaries that's open at the moment. it's known within haiti that the whole concept of foreign presence within that country is deeply divides the population, the presence of the un. any possibility of newest stepping up with security activities within that country may provide a further spark of division within a country that is already deeply divided, but the criminal activity clearly continuing to mount these missionaries, 16 of them, 16 americans plus a canadian at his reported. it's also believed there are number of children who are among that mission regroup. well, this is just the latest in a series of events that shows exactly how troubled and how criminal ridden haiti is at present. my cannon without uptake from washington d. c. thanks mike. in sri lanka, hundreds of fishermen are protesting against what they say is poaching from neighboring india is that the livelihoods a

u. s. and mexican delegations, the mexican president would participate in the opening remarks, adding that there will be a lot of ground covered from bilateral coven response between the u. s. and mexico . immigration is obviously going to be a big topic of conversation as well as reopening the border between the united states, mexico, which has remain closed since last year. but of course, the main theme here is security. establishing a new bilateral, secure security agreement between the 2 countries. and this is a bit of a mouthful, but what is being touted is the us mexico bicentennial framework for security, public health and safe communications, which unfortunately does not lend itself a very well to an acronym. but security experts here, mexico are largely seen. this is as an effort by the united states to have a bit more influence here in mexico when it comes to the countries efforts to cur, back violence. but there's little faith that both delegations are going to be able to come to an agreement at least for now have a look. ah, more than 300000 people have been killed in mexico since the start of the us led war on drugs in 2006. and today mexico continues to make headlines as one of the most dangerous

i mean, we're talking about it and obviously the u. s. government is moving to free. these kidnapped missionaries, but many, many other kidnap situations that really get resolved. i guess that this makes the issue of a ransom even more controversial than it usually use. abs absolutely. in the simple fact is that in many cases, these kidnappings aren't even reported. and the reason that we've seen this spike that we've seen this sort of rapidly deteriorating security situation here in haiti . again, a short answer is impunity. police forces here in the country here, at least in the haitian capital, are overwhelmed. they're under resource. and oftentimes they're corrupt, so game violence, it's not a recent issue here in haiti, but the, these levels of violence, the levels of criminal activity have spike since the assassination of president of movies in this past july. and this term for between the gangs has led to arise and several other types of crime, including kidnapping crimes like extortion. and what many people here say is that not only has it been near impossible

the difference in reaction is an enemy where talking about it and obviously the u. s. government is moving to free. these are kidnapped missionaries, but many, many other kidnap situations that really get resolved. i guess that this makes the issue of a ransom even more controversial as than it usually is. abs. absolutely, and the simple fact is that in many cases, these kidnappings aren't even reported. and the reason that we've seen this.

u. s. in ukiah, particular examples obviously. and you see under australia the human cost hasn't been that high. you could, i get the economic cost has been quite high all the same. and i think it is difficult for politicians if they are faced with the choice of prioritizing the economy either lives. you can say, see how is natural to no want to me that the politicians that presided, i've a lot of people dying. it seems that that isn't a real good initially shed. and finally known to me. any message you would have a 0 in the economist for policy makers, a, a cost to weld and tammy of how they should address the issue of, of long coven from a policy point of view. i think to bottom lines are one. we should be more rigorous about doing a cost benefit analysis. so this is we have policy making, wilson, he's in the u. k or elsewhere. i think a lot of it hasn't been strictly based on these sorts of, you know, quite ruthless but, but systematic assessments of what might be the best way forward for society at large for the 50 i listen as

u. s. going to be able to say ok, so here come the tariffs, here comes the punishment. there really is not a whole lot you can do right now if we talk about economies, obviously everything in that, that chinese u. s. trade deal was pre pandemic. it was pre cove, it so all of the, you know, purchase from us this amount. we need better deals in terms of, of products moving back more than the tariffs, the by the administration doesn't seem to like the tariffs as much, but can they really afford to do that? the u. s. economies hurting an awful lot right now. and so if you were to put tariffs on china who's going to absorb the cost of that u. s. consumers are, they're the ones who are going to pay the price for it. so there's not a whole lot you can do right now. and that's why i mentioned the caring of the stick. at this point you got to pull out a lot more carrots than you do sticks and not to a to mention if, if we look at the supply chain constraints that we are seeing worldwide with ports being backed up and the like, especially ahead of what is going to be a busy holiday season as inflation ramps up. i mean, it's hard to see how adding any more tariffs or any more econ

u. s. partner that people were coming in. obviously, if you looked at the people under the bridges, they were just not ready for the mass of humanity that came and the horrible conditions that the people had to live under there, as well as the neighbors who had to, you know, tolerate this tough situation as well, thank you congressmen, and it's difficult for me because i wasn't involved in the decisions with the, by an administration to speculate on what was going through their mind. but you're right, and i heard congressmen, serious say it also that this problem needs to be solved and hailey or they will continue to come to our borders, particularly when they hear that their country man got in earlier in july, august, early september, up there. but deportation back to haiti is not the answer right now. i'm not saying that that is intending my roots who are in illegal status shouldn't be deported. but haiti is too dangerous. our own diplomats cannot leave our compounds in porter ranch without armed guard. and the already failed essenti

ah, i know about this and this is obviously alive from doe hob, also coming up. the u. s. president demands its largest port ones, 247 shelves lie empty and prices are for stop because of a supply chain log jammed on fighters into guy. i say they are facing more attacks by ethiopia as military.

you mentioned obviously russia raising the rates, the u. s. u k, keeping them low or even considering cutting them. how is the u. s. approach to dealing with this phenomenon, different to other western countries. the u. s. is similar to these other countries and that they're all coordinating their central bank policies and they are all living in this dream world where you can print money forever and have no consequences. even though we know that the results of that were the massive wealth and income gap, the rise of an american oligarchy, the reinforcement of the existing british oligarchy, in because russia is not an indebted economy, the death of gdp in russia is one of the world's lowest so elvira, over there at the russian central bank, had room to raise, right. so the russian economies manage the she's probably the best central banker in the world. but these other countries, because they're still incredibly indebted, they put themselves in a position where any rate raise will kill the economy and they call the crisis. and the supply chain

united states does that it actually exists in poland in the, you know, well, obviously different situation. i mean, the u. s. states started out theoretically as independent polities, european states have been independent policies for centuries before that and the u isn't quite set up like the us. it's set up more like the soviet union in the sense that brussels is supreme and all of these other countries can, can pretend that their sovereign can take the blame for everything that goes wrong, but can never take the credit for everything. anything that goes right, right. so whenever something goes wrong, it's a national government's fault whenever, whenever something goes right, it's the, it's the credit of brussels is how it works out. in practice. you tried to sort of have this constitution that would turn it from an alliance of countries into a true supernatural entity. and it got rejected in referenda back in the arch the i right famously had to vote twice on it until they got it right. and then the sort of do the android around a people and made it an international treaty to make it easier for brussels

that's obviously just been days since president adot and threatened to expel the u. s. ambassador amongst others. but in the read out of that meeting, we were hearing more diplomatic language between the 2 nato allies. has anything really changed here? well, certainly the a tech aside says that the meeting that went on for over an hour has been quite positive and that the 2 sides have expressed willingness to further discuss and, and reach solutions to the various fronts of frictions. i think president biden seems to be quite giggly or we've seen his body language with the president, edwin, and i think certainly the american person has tried to bridge a some of the differences with, with thirtyish president. clearly turkey has some role to play in an area and in region where the united states have measured interest, whether it slid biase or of glanced on and so on, so forth. and then of course, the question of nit a turkey being and it all i and as we'll well known for the last couple of years, we've been hitting more of the same subjects being discussed again and agai

but that obviously will only be dealt with if the u. s. is successful in it's. so before we get to that stage, just to be clear as things stand right now in london, if you were about to suddenly, i dunno and show me a tv set of reuters journalists being gunned down by and i got the gun ships for both of us could be tortured, we could be subject to a u. s. secretary of state claiming that we were a non state or sale actors word. he was as nation on the streets of london that, that president has already been said and could be extradited. that, that's all fine. it's just the suicide risk. well, you know, think about the murder of george floyd, which was recorded on video and only because of that video check that that clip. we had the evidence that george floyd was actually murdered and there was no, you know, that was not a medical crisis. it was not a case of self defense or something. it was just, no, no, just the cache. and, but in back a, a public protests against santa police police brutality which, you know, the authority is not being able to avoid prosecutin

u. s . administration needs to take a more realistic view on its rivalry with china, economically and technology equally. china is obviously on the rise. although our east military protect east north on is polity, but it's already the 2nd largest in the world. the u. s. peace proportion, mostly the me 3, spending east largest, and i don't think china is going to catch up for sure. however far the united states, economic and technology, 10 or logical capability, he spent tree in decline. we cannot just say that why not us and china sit down and make peace with each other and have a half a know, i think these are still not if you got to be realistic in the only option would have for, for the global committee to managed them yeah. so that where, where one is rising? yeah. one is declining a full blown but the war. yeah. this is, this is what we can do. yeah. 25 the hour here at moscow. so the come on the program cove. it might be a disaster globally, but it certainly put some big pharma bosses on the forbes rich list. would you be details on that and the rest of your saturday morning headlines in just a moment here or not? ah

ah, my, my brothers and this is obviously alive from doe hob, also coming up. the u. s. president demands its largest port ones. 247 shelves lie empty, and prices are forced up because of a supply chain. log jammed on fighters. integrated, say they are facing more attacks by ethiopia as military typhoon called by su, heads towards vietnam. after leaving a trail of destruction in chinese province of high, nun ah, president vladimir putin is denying russia is behind an energy shortage in europe saying moscow is standing by to help. prices for natural gas have skyrocketed. but you, you says people are going to need support as winter approaches natasha. butler has more from brussels, reducing taxes on energy bills and financial help for poor households. were among the recommendations laid out by europe's energy commissioner to help member states shield consumers across the block from spiraling costs. our immediate priority is to protect europe's consumers, especially the most vulnerable. second, we have to make our anchor system better prepared and more resilient. so that w

u. s. nuclear forces. all it feels like a lot of this is really about transparency and the perceptions of transparency. and obviously some states, some more transparent than others yourself have worked on trying to monitor nuclear proliferation. how easy is it actually to do that these days, especially with robe, nuclear states, for instance. while there are a number of n jose that are estimating that the total numbers of nuclear weapons that we estimate, we have somewhere around $13100.00 among the 9 countries of which 91 percent of the best way in russia and then out of state as you mentioned, coming back after the biden, within stomach, and geneva, the 2 sides start the strategic stability talks where they want to talk about all types of nuclear warheads. not just strategic warheads. so this announcement by the us also would, i think, be a transparency measure to facilitate that discussion. and finally, both the russia and in the states are observing the new start treaty, which they extended for 5 years in february. so under the start, creepy limits of $1551.00 had each. the americans have the u. s. has 1357 been

i and i have about 30 seconds left with this last one, but obviously as part of bracket, there was big discussion about u. k. u. s. trade deal. now, liz, trust, she saying, it's not the end. i'll be all we'll figure it out. was almost out of that call. yeah. bank bill endo, i'm there actually focusing on pivoting quite a lot now to the i'm trans pacific to try and secure an agreement that particularly with india on basically it's because you remember that it was on vice. president biden was a part of obama's administration when obama said that the u. k. would be at the back of the queue back of the line expects it went through. so the youth you can us have not thought finalize a trade dell. however, when boys johnson was here just a week ago, he did manage to make sure that they're all of a terrorist were listed on scotch whisky whiskey. there is now british beef being imported and all the restrictions on british lamb. so there's an immense amount of trade going back and forth. i think let's trust is sensible. what she's doing is she is lowering expectations and not putting pressure on the u. s. to finalize that

they're not to pursue nuclear weapons, but obviously the last time there was a successful regime changed by the u. s. was against the democratic lead monster dec. bernie saunders fond of talking about that. isn't that how you got into this mess? i know douglas has a big hero of yours. he actually seeing that with with the president weaver, and i should say, well, we did it with the british but, but it was actually mostly back who had violated the iranian constitution at time. and i think it was, it was far more elements of popular opposition to most of tech support for the shop . and it led, it led to the islamist revolution of $979.00, and then it followed it best. you're engaging and a post hoc air go back, found it. now i've, i lived in iran, i going to tell you, and sanctions didn't affect rich people in iran, your vocal supporter of sanctions. i mean, do you know how many thousands of ordinary iranians men, women, and children are killed by us in nature? sanctions on iran, you think it's a price worth paying? like madeline albright with the 500000 iraqi children. it said that the sanctions have

u. s. is still interested in continuing its military relations with a, with us bankers. and obviously russia is continuing to exercise a soft power to market power, et cetera. ah, the big question is whether you know the situation in afghanistan, it will spill over to these countries. there's a lot of concern that they at least stay secular and do not fall prey to the extremist influences. as mirrors are, you have went to cast his own vote at a polling station on the outskirts of the capital, touched kent. his chances of winning remain around 90 percent. leah harding al jazeera george's opposition of rallied against the imprisonments of former president. michelle, 2nd for the demonstration moves. hell's new, the jail we're 2nd really has been held for more than 3 weeks. he's been on a hunger strike since being arrested on his return to georgia. after living in exxon for years, the supporters are demanding authorities, transfer him to hospital for treatments. 10 western nations are waiting to see if there ambassadors will be asked to leave turkey. after precedence, richard cypert a one

u. s. is still interested in continuing its military relations with a, with, with us bankers. and obviously russia is continuing to exercise a soft power, economic power, et cetera. ah, the, the big question is whether you know that situation little's been of ganeth down will spill over to these countries. there's a lot of concern that they at least stay secular and do not fall prey to the extremist influence is coming from afghanistan. and mind you there was mega center has had a very difficult relationship with, with a muslim extremists, it has imprisoned thousands of members of the his birthday party. some of them had been leased, et cetera. ah, but there's still a lot of concern of which way was back it's then we'll go and it's not just the 3rd . there isn't a threat of that, as i said, but it's also a threat on islamic extremism that remains very present. he said people will, will almost certainly vote for the incumbent in the selection of it in what sort of numbers. i mean, what do we think they get a vote enthusiastically today? how do they you say things are better under this preced

u. s. ouch. that's going to make things difficult with mr. by or of course, but morrison obviously sees the benefits that, that result from closure defense ties with the us and mean are the years is trying to strengthen the ring of allies around china that already includes south 3 in japan. so they want to bring. i'll show you more firmly into the mix and additionally, the submarine deal, the august deal is worth between $50000000000.00. so lots of jobs probably approve mr. morrison's reelection chance is it possible, despite this free public of apology, we had there for mr. by this, it possible really for parents in washington to return to business as usual for the disable future. you think water is really under the bridge over it. i mean, microns that just yesterday that rebuilding of trust is under way. it probably is relationships between the u. s. and friends have been probably as more strained in peacetime than any other nation. the u. s. has dealt with. i might be forgetting some, but there was sort of revert to a generally amicable state. and they've got britain to deal wit

u. s. is still interested in continuing its military relations with a, with, with respect to send. and obviously russia is considering judge, the size of soft power, can optic power, et cetera. the big question is whether you know the situation, it again is down, it will spill over to these countries. there's a lot of concern that they at least stay secular and do not full upgrade to the extremist influences. as mirrors are, you have went to cast his own vote at a polling station on the outskirts of the capital touch kent. his chances of winning remain around 90 percent. leo harding al jazeera gunman has killed at least 10 people in mali in an attack on a base of power, military group known as the gun to it. so it happened in the northern region of go . the group was formed in 2009 and is backed by the army. it's unclear who is responsible for the attack because hawk has more now from the car and neighboring cynical. it happened just a 10 minutes drive from the minute my base. remember, there's at least 14000 un peacekeeping soldiers there and next to the french base back gun. so quite a brazen
