u. s. did in iraq. and that's sort of the gist of an intercept article, although they spin it in a different way. so perhaps the u. s. plan was to get them into some kind of afghanistan occupation, but i don't think russia really wants to occupy those parts of the bitterly anti russian parts of ukraine to begin with. so it's the u. s. seems to be just a string with a long, maybe hoping for some kind of gambit or miracle that will reverse their fortunes. but it's hard to see what the strategy even is at this point. and the you can't seem to be be being led to the slaughter really? yeah, scott, you know, it's been mentioned before and the many, many programs have done this since the complex started. but it's very interesting how, particularly the americans, maybe the british, when they, when they analyze russians, military efforts in ukraine, they see it through the prism of shock and awe. they can't seem to comprehend what the russians are doing. the russians are bogged down. they have no ammo, they have no morale, but they feed through the vice and maybe like, you know, and the, the 2003 war against iraq go

u. s. action perhaps u. s. and poland. i this is so just dr. that's a, that's a quite a statement as well. why do you feel way that there was a u. s. action? what evidence do you have of that usa helicopters, military helicopters that are normally based in good ask? i were circling over this area, cleansing all the the answer you a 2nd here said anthea linton, save you the packing russian pipelines will quote in no one's in 1st. he did, however, well can reach the youth in efforts of distances so from russian energy supplies. it's a tremendous opportunity to once and for all remove the dependence on russian energy and thus to take away from vladimir putin, the weapon ization of energy as a means of advancing his imperial designs. that's very significant. and that offers tremendous strategic opportunity for the years to come. while the u. s. is likely to seize the opportunity to increase ellen, the shipments said that eve, it caused on. so i cameras as you know, it depends on washington is risky. this is of course, not only ridiculous, this is,

u. s. perhaps it's improving a little bit, but it's been difficult in the past. and then there's russia and that seen by many in the west, currently as a parent nation, you're still talking about that gas pipeline. how difficult is it the problem solis? i think the a 1st rule these bigger countries need to get used to the fact that smaller over this team is smaller and developing countries can't be held hostage to the great games that are going on. and i think we'll must all ask ourselves what, what history were right over this period. that we were at a point in human history, where we se, saying various existential threats, like we've never seen before. we went through once in a 100 year pandemic, an existential threat to us. we are going through the climate crisis that these for us and pakistan has reached the point where it's an existential threat. and i think we can all agree. there's no way we will be able to combat least the issue of climate change with our all the countries you just mentioned working together. but as you know, the great power right now are

u. s action perhaps u. s. and poland. i this is so i just, i don't really got to stop there. that's, that's a quite a statement as well. why do you feel always that there was a u. s. action? what evidence do you have of that? most of our teeth well depart program asana, boy co, she joined my colleague, nicky, are in in the studio earlier to break down the ramifications of the opec plus production cuts. white has already described this move as a hostile act, and it's a very interesting wording because if you start from a promise that the rest of the world is supposed to be serving your interest, done everything that's for your interest would be a hotel act, but saudi arabia in many of the opec members are considered traditional u. s. allies and the fact that they have pretty much ignored, very, very active american law being shows that things are changing in the world. and countries are starting to pursue that own interest. the white house has yet again tried to put all the blame on russia, but i think the current division shows the even closest american alice no longer paying

so perhaps the u. s. plan was to get them into some kind of afghanistan occupation, but i don't think russia really wants to occupy those parts of the bitterly anti russian parts of ukraine to begin with. so it's the u. s. seems to be just a string long. maybe hoping for some kind of gambit or miracle, that all reverse their fortunes, but it's hard to see what the strategy even is at this point. and the you can't seem to be be being led to the slaughter really? yeah, scott, you know, it's been mentioned before and in many, many programs. i've done this since the complex started, but it's very interesting how, particularly the americans, maybe the british, when they, when they analyze russians, military efforts in ukraine, they see it through the prism of shocking are they, they can't seem to comprehend what the russians are doing. the russians are bogged down, they have no ammo, they have no morale, but they see it through the vice and maybe like, you know, and the, the 2003 war against iraq go ahead. i m

perhaps the u. s. president says he's reevaluating his country's relationship with saudi arabia. so the opec plus group, which it leads decided to seek up production. the organisation of oil producing countries announced its decision last week despite us opposition. the white house as president joe biden, is willing to work with congress after a senator call for a freeze on corporation with saudi arabia. you're up to date, those are our current top story. stay with us. bollywood dreams is next. we hope to see you soon. bye. bye. a weekly look at the world's top business stories from global markets to economies, and small businesses. to understand how it affects our daily lives, economic examiner, 150000000 are counting the cost on our g 0. ah ah ah ah ah, near numbers me johnny. i made a made it under my. i took it in suddenly full height. i got black and niggly. well man, ah, marianne, i think too busy going to go me mom and pop on an ada. come on the la judea. my mom did up net on on a pad. yep. was a maybe schooling we're either zeppelin appeared again ikea does ma'am. only i

u. s. is afraid that e e, u and russia could perhaps talk again, hence making things difficult for that conversation to happen and attacking the pipeline. absolutely. what this is, all the history of the u. s. has been doing that since the 1818, i mean 1718. they never wanted the rep for a month. they actually the, there was a red origin attempt under reagan to bomb the pipeline or russian pipeline big because the, they didn't want this, those cooperation economy corporation. and you need to keep in mind one thing, which is extremely important. if you look at actually the creation of the you itself, he was a u. s. emission new. you had germany, i would consider the, the father of the you. he was on the be all of the it was never an initiative of european countries. it was a new initiative after well, what you should contain you up in the long term plan. we d, u is that to they want to destroy the nation states. this is part of the global is agenda alongside to destroy 5000000 values. religions love your country. so you see they think she, they've been exposing that much more clearly now that you hav

u. s. has decided to just kill off the german economy. perhaps partly in order to boost the u. s. dollar the usual argument as well. we have to show russia and we have to hurt russia. well, it's not hurting russia. russia has attractive exports raw material expos, intermediate finished good experts that it will find buyers all across the globe. and just telling europe, know you're not allowed to buy russian. things is going to hurt europe, not russia most. ah, the u. s. j department allegedly left 325000 afghan rescue program applications and red pass after washing did pledge special visas and relocation for afghan locals who helped us forces and america longest ever war. the state department inspector general reported that tens of thousands of emails from afghan seeking safety were simply left unopened with the state department breaking guidelines by stalling the applications. the program was launched after the u. s. withdrawal from afghanistan last year, but the white house's promises have been left unfulfilled to days and, and pulled milestone as we continue to fulfill a prom

u. s. has decided to just kill off the german economy perhaps partly in order to boost the u. s. dollar. the usual argument is, well, we have to show russia and we have to heard russia. well, it's not having russia. russia has attractive exports, raw material, expos, intermediate, finished good exports, that it will find buyers all across the globe. and just telling europe, know you're not allowed to buy russian things is going to europe, not russia most after months of an successful attempt, germany is president has finally met with the ukraine. counts part in key, s and pledge to even more weapons. the trip is frank was assigned my 1st visit to the campus all since he claims conflict with russia began in february, previous trips were cancelled a short notice due to security concerns. and kids saying that he's just in the end of the stein minor, has a spider native contacts and connections with russia stretching decades long. many members of the german ruling coalition are tangled in it as well. before i say that the 1st hour and a half of talks between the 2 countries, leaders took pla

pipeline effect the destruction of the nord st pipeline, which i, i would, that was a us action perhaps u. s. and poland. i this is so you just don't stop there, that's a, that's a quite a statement as well. why do you feel the way that that was a u. s. action? what evidence do you have of that usa helicopters, military helicopters that are normally bass can get amps. i were circling over this area. common say all the while the you have faith, if fate anthony lincoln say to the tracking russian pipelines was in, quote, no one's interest. however, he was happy to welcome you, have been efforts to distance themselves from russian energy supplies. it's a tremendous opportunity to once and for all remove the dependence on russian energy and thus to take away from vladimir putin, the weapon ization of energy as a means of advancing his imperial designs. that's very significant. and that offers tremendous strategic opportunity for the years to come. while the u. s. is trying to seize the opportunity to increase is ellen g, suppliers to the you in commerce, dr. i come a is afraid. years dependence

crime attack the destruction of the nord stream pipeline, which i, i would bet was a us action perhaps u. s. and poland, i this is so i just don't want to stop there. that's a, that's a quite a statement as well. why do you feel way that there was a u. s. action? what evidence do you have of that usa helicopters, military helicopters that are normally based in good answer? i were circling over this area currency on the hands of the usa, so v as z, lincoln say to the attacking russian park bars was quote, in no one's interest. he did our vote well, who recent you've been ever since. distance itself from russian energy supplies. it's a tremendous opportunity to once and for all remove the dependence on russian energy and thus to take away from vladimir putin, the weapon ization of energy as a means of advancing his imperial designs. that's very significant. and that offers tremendous strategic opportunity for the years to come. while the us is of like me to seize the opportunity to increase on the shipment to the economist dr. i hammer says you have the premise on washington is risky. so this

bloomberg. htp, the destruction of the nord stream pipeline, which i, i wouldn't, that was a us action perhaps u. s. and poland. i, this is so just, i don't want to stop there. that's a, that's a quite a statement as well. why do you feel always that there was a u. s. action? what evidence do you have of that usa helicopters, military helicopters that are normally based in dance? i were circling over this area jeffrey sachs, now commenting on the incident u. s. secretary of state, anthony lincoln said that i talking russian pipelines was quote, in no one's interest. he did, however, at the same time, welcome the e used recent efforts that distance itself from moscow's energy supplies. it's a tremendous opportunity to once and for all remove the dependence on russian energy and thus to take away from vladimir putin, the weapon ization of energy as a means of advancing his imperial designs. that's very significant. and that offers tremendous strategic opportunity for the years to come. though, while the u. s is likely to seize the opportunity to increase l n. g shipments to the u economist, dr. i k.

pipeline attacks the destruction of the nord st pipeline, which i, i would bet was a us action perhaps u. s. and poland. i this is so i just don't stop there. that's a, that's a quite a statement as well. why do you feel a way that that was a u. s. action? what evidence do you have of that usa helicopters, military helicopters that are normally bass can get and i were circling over this area calling thing, all of the incident us. thank you think anthony brent and they did that attacking russian pipeline was quote, in no one's interest. he did, however, welcome recent european efforts a distance itself from russian energy supplies. it's a tremendous opportunity to once and for all remove the dependence on russian energy and thus to take away from vladimir putin, the weapon ization of energy as a means of advancing his imperial designs. that's very significant. and that offers tremendous strategic opportunity for the years to come. while the usa is alive, he to seize the opportunity to increase ela and he shipments to the economist, dr. i. cameras as you, as dependent on washington is risky.

shut up the destruction of food, the nord street pipeline, which i, i would bet was a us action, perhaps u. s. and poland. i this is, i don't, we don't stop there, that's a, that's a quite a statement as well. why do you feel like that? that was a you us action. what evidence do you have of that? the house of ortiz, what apart wells apart program. ok son, a boy co joined my colleague, nicky are in earlier in the studio and they wrote down the ramifications of the opaque plus production cause the white has already described based north as a hostile act. and it's a very interesting wording, because if you start from a promise that the rest of the world is supposed to be serving your interest, done, everything that's for your interest would be forced to act. but saudi arabia, in many of the opec members, are considered traditional u. s. allies and the fact that they have pretty much ignored the very, very active american law being shows that things are changing in the world. and countries are starting to pursue their own interest. the white house has yet again tried to put all the blame on russi

the power plant is of concern perhaps and the u. s. president says he's re evaluating his country's relationship with saudi arabia after the opec plus group, which it leads decided to stately cut production, the organisation of oil producing countries. and i'm still decision last week despite us opposition or the white house as president joe biden is willing to work with congress after sen, cold for a freeze on cooperation with saudi arabia. while the stream is next asking what it'll take to end the global energy crisis, we'll see you a bit later by ah ah ah, i welcome to the stream, i'm josh rushing thickly on for me. okay. as rushes warren, you crank continues, people around the world are suffering from a protracted global energy crisis. the secretary general, the un is called it an existential cost, a living crisis for hundreds of millions of people. today we take a look at how people are affected by energy shortages, price increases, and what it will take to bring relief. but 1st, let's hear from one of our community members, tim

and perhaps to overtake the u. s. is the number one superpower . there was an interesting nods in particular to marxist modernization present. she jumping as regularly talked about some sort of return to marxist roots and trying to develop common prosperity. some of that certainly chimes with people across the country. economically, they're all going to be big challenges ahead. the marxist ideology is certainly being presented as an alternative to western capitalism. thank you for that, patrick funk my there in making. let's turn to other world news now. in ukraine, russian appointed officials in the city of care saw have told old civilians to leave immediately as ukrainian forces advance in the region. residents are being warned of an increase danger of massive shelly thousands have already left in what ukraine has described as a mass. the for taishan, the case on region is one of 4 ukrainian territories. moscow illegally annexed last month. mommy, john june, has more from keyvi says they are expectations of major advances. in case there has been

but south korea has said that they see perhaps likely window after that congress. i am the u. s. elections coming up in november and the latest missile test is seen as increasing the likelihood that north korea maybe preparing to go ahead and resume nuclear testing as well. just miss in sole thank you for the analysis. ukrainian forces have broken through russian defenses in the south of the country while expanding their rapid offensive in the east as seizing back more territory in areas antics by russia and threatening supply lines for its troops. russia installed officials of acknowledged ukraine's advances in the region. one of 4 that russia legally annex last week ukrainian troops are said to have gained territory as much as 30 kilometers away from where the front stood. just days ago, troops raising the flag, allegedly in his son, which had just been illegally annexed by russia. in donna, it's another region, russia claims as its own ukrainians ride through in tanks. some of them captured and still bearing the russian war symbol zed. this is the key, ga gov rama lemon hair

u. s. the mid terms coming up, things could perhaps stop change and the attitude with more and more weapons to ukraine. and now we've got a winter, very cold winter coming up with mail. during this just i've been neighbouring europe. i think we're learning to, to ease click click spec, people perhaps even come to a negotiation table or diplomatic solution to this. well, that ultimately will be what the outcome should be. i think if you have in that there's a distinction of republicans in the senate and in the house in the senate, they're much more supportive of ukraine with, with a blank check if you will. the republicans in the house are seeing something else. and there begin, and there's sending that signal very public way now. and i think that that might or can a shift in what the united states may may do it. there may be writers put on to future defense budgets in the house. certainly if the republicans carry the house, so there's a lot, there's a lot at stake here in terms of policy shifts, come november 8th elections here in this country. and i think that people are realizing that tha

so to say, we perhaps have the economic do awfully in the form of u. s. a. china and the kind of deal with kinetic level. but we also, as you and you and glen are good, are seen the emergence of a great number of states for seeking greater autonomy. and while most of them are still very much hooked to the western financial institutions are very much dependent on the international institutions where the west has a dominance. we do see the new try for poor sovereignty and for suburb decision making, especially in critical forms. and many of them, even though they vote against russia on the un general assembly at both of the level level leads and both the level of people see that despite that is happening now from the battlefield. a crane or an artist other domains as kind of the beginning of the new post colonialism. so to say, such a really good point because there is that angle to it as well. you know, but if you, if you listen to western leaders and pundents media, this is a struggle of good versus evil, democracy versus photography. and they love to pla

so perhaps brussels is now looking at the u. s. agenda bit more skeptically before leaping off a cliff at washing his be asked, and then realizing too late that it didn't have a parachute. and by the way, the chief diplomat burrell seems to be upset with this pair. she packers, and is just you out these you diplomat same quote. sometimes i knew more of what was happening somewhere by reading the newspapers. then reading your reports. courts come sometimes too late, but at least it's not yet too late for europe to push back on the notion of opening up a 2nd western war front with the world's largest economy. eyes of the conference on and to ration and conference building in asia is underway. cut august on the roster prison has taken the floor to talk about multiple a world and how age is playing a key role in it. as course now live to our son and speak to ortiz, maria finacialow are a great to see. i, we've just heard from the russian present. what are the main takeaways of his speech? hello. yes. hi, murat. we heard plenty of stro

u. s. has decided to just kill off the german economy perhaps partly in order to boost the us dollar the usual argument as well. we have to show russia and we have to heard russia, well, it's not hurting russia. russia has attractive exports, raw material, expos, intermediate, finished good exports, that it will find buyers all across the globe. and just telling europe, know you're not allowed to buy russian things is going ahead. europe, not russia most. oh. and now to the annual meeting of the valet discussion club, which is entering its 3rd day to day and moscow with more paneled discussions on the schedule, we spoke to the host of ortiz worlds apart on, on a boy eco about what's on the agenda for the meeting they to over the whole discussion club could be summarized by that old bill. clinton's phrase, it's all about the economy, stupid. and the word stupid is very appropriate here because many of the participants have been analyzing and talking about not very smart, economic decisions, that economic powers that be took over the last couple of years and how it's affecting the rest of the wo

so perhaps brussels is now looking at the u. s. agenda a bit more skeptically before leaping off a cliff at washington's be asked, and then realizing too late, but it didn't have a parachute. and by the way, the chief diplomat burrell seems to be upset with his parachute packers. and it's just you, these, you diplomat saying, quote, sometimes i knew more of what was happening somewhere by reading the newspaper. then reading your report, you reports come sometimes too late. but at least it's not yet too late for europe to push back on the notion of opening up a 2nd western waterfront with the world's largest economy. all right, i'll take it over there. rachel marston. thank you. now ukrainian military intelligence organized the crimean bridge bombing that is, according to russia's federal security service. the f i speak says 8 people have been arrested in connection with the attack. the agency also states that explosives away hidden in a truck carrying rolls of plastic sheeting a used in the construction industry. the explosive dev

giving is perhaps the most celebrated and heroic secret agent man in the history of the u. s secret service. clinton hill, who was assigned to first lady jackie kennedy is out with his latest book and what's being described as his most intimate portrait yet of the iconic first lady. hill was the united states secret service agent from 1958 to 1975 experiences know what else could have duplicated? i was so fortunate. i didn't realize it at the time, but later on, they certainly did in 1961. he was assigned to first lady jacqueline kennedy. i knew that being with the first lady i knew about the agents had operated in the past, but maybe i now am bess truman. they either watched made me eisenhower play canasta. go to that french. uh uh, lingerie store, j. c penney, a or, uh, things of that nature. they didn't do anything about the interest. he thought his career was over. and so it was. i thought. oh, god. how did i get this assignment? well it turned out to be the very best assignment of any agent in the secret service assignment he dives into in his new book, my travels with m

perhaps it's equal the end of the fight for well for quality. meanwhile, from the u. s. and the u. k. a quite different sentiment arose too much taxation kills tax revenues. or as margaret thatcher often put it, there is no alternative to economic liberalism. for the next few decades, this idea would dominate political thinking in western democracies. and the welfare state would slowly crumble after more than a century of protesting and pushing for change. what would become at the people's achievements with ah, ah, with with africa. agricultural ways if your energy within you can power your vehicle with and of course fertilize your crops. how does this work in practice? and we showcase examples from the ivory coast eco africa in 30 minutes on d. w. the flood is over. ah, but people continue to die in pakistan in more than 1000. 500 have died from drowning flood related diseases. countless have lost everything. there is hardly any support from the state on private initiatives helping as best as they can. little 3090 minutes on d w. i have been threatened, i have been beaten. i have

u. s. and presumably, other countries, whether it would be nato or collective, it's hard to say could take action within ukraine, perhaps in a way that would actually make russia situation even worse. in other words, to take out with conventional forces for many of the russian capabilities that still exist in ukraine, and perhaps even on the black sea. let's talk about it's necessary, of course, to point out that mr. patriot is not a representative of the u. s. government anymore, but how do you feel about this kind of rhetoric being used not for the 1st time by him? well, i would agree, i'm personally, i'm glad he is not in the us government and the us military anymore. i think it's a dangerous raspberry. this is exactly the scenario that is suggesting that would lead to the escalation if the us acts will be conventional forces. russian fleet suggest and other major forces in ukraine, him possibly even the russian territory. this is a direct way to get the rush or response and if not in the media players pass by the civility escalating to a nuclear response. this is something that is actually put in is channeling to lo

u. s. a. deliberately created on their borders. will ukraine, as you say, is supported by western countries including the u. s. of course. what reaction are you expecting from them? another wave of sanctions towards russia perhaps increase military aid to ukraine is out ahead. unfortunately for the west, there are out both the, the sanctions are backfiring, the more sanctions they place on, on russia, the worse they, they are feeling the economic pain and in terms of military aid, the western media itself is admitting that the united states and tap out in terms of even essentially like ammunition this, this offensive ukraine is on right now. i see it as an all or nothing push because after this they have no way of replacing their losses, which are significant. brian, just finally i do appreciate this is it could be deemed a speculation and both are parts. but what we're seeing today in ukraine, does it look to you as somebody with, with a lot of military expertise and experience as i reaction or the start of something larger in terms of the military operation by russian. perhaps a little bit of both the russia most certainly had to retaliate, but also the, the timing maybe conveniently, or maybe they knew that

perhaps even on the black sea. let's talk about it's necessary, of course, to point out that mr. patriot is not a representative of the u. s. government anymore, but how do you feel about this kind of rhetoric being used not for the 1st time by him? well, i would agree, i'm personally, i'm glad he is not in the us government and the us military anymore. i think it's a dangerous raspberry. this is exactly the scenario that is suggesting that would wait to the escalation if the us acts will be conventional forces. russian fleet suggest and other major combined forces in ukraine, him possibly even a territory. this is a direct way to get pressure response. and if not in the media players pos by the civility of escalating to a nuclear response. this is something that is actually put in, is channeling to lose his signal. is that not to have a direct engagement. and they did a lot of the scenarios in the russian nuclear doctrine were, prescribes, there is a large scale conventional attack when it would, which threatens their russian state survival. then the nuclear response would be imminent. and we don't want to gamble in that.

u. s. apparently, and help brush up at the end of the day. and perhaps this explains the exchange that happened between one of the journalists and the saudi energy minister in that room in vienna. the gas price is widely seen in europe and much of the western world as having been manipulated by russia, which is cut supply. people will know, see, so the arabia and the core members of opec and opec plus, cooperating with russia to try and raise the oil price. it will realtor simplicity of david will be the of you there. do you went to twisted to, to your end? fine. it's your prerogative, it's your right. it's with what we've been collaborating with all of a class countries ever since december 2016. so it's not an accident of, of mutual convenience if you could, could. and this and decision by the autopay plan, scrapers that comes on to the hours, if not just an hour after the new batch of sanctions was announced from russia, which included that oil price cap. so talk us through how these sanctions on russia are affecting the country. well, our 1st of all,
