if you haven't noticed, it's hardly possible to cold russia and the u. s. partners now rather there are opponents with whom we negotiate on he's done cortisol in this story. first, don't really aggressive response that from to beach prescott basically saying that their enemies who tolerate each other and try to make the best of a bad situation to cool spite claims of from the u. s. of what russia intends to do any substance to back up these claims while neil the whole situation is like never ending deja vu, we have another us selection and more baseless claims that russia is trying to metal. and then of course, moscow rejected those claims. since the only thing we have to verify them is biden's word. i think we also need to take on the rapid disinformation. russia is doing already about the 2022 elections and this information to pure a violation of our sovereignty. now, biden was apparently given this information by the us intelligence community at his daily briefing again without any proof that we know of its being claims that russia intent to metal in th

coherent strategy towards russia or this one from politico which claims that germany shows russia over the u. s. and it deal that notably benefits germany directly and that the agreement was made with moscow in mind, even though it includes vague threats of action to be taken against russia. if the u. s. teams is necessary or how about this one from the bloomberg editorial board, which claims the deal leaves little to celebrate because they allege it damages national security and threatened you can ukraine with little benefit for europe in return. it's bizarre that it took number one, it took these guys a week to collect these thoughts, which clearly they have every single day of their life. that if you allow anything positive for russia, it apparently positive for germany that somehow the u. s. administration is weak on that, but why? you know, it also raises the question of what do they expect for us to do here? i mean, we've seen the trump administration was against this pipeline since day one. the buying and ministration came in. they threatened sanctions against one of their closest allies

both however, stress the need for ukraine to remain a trends at land for russia. gas, the u. s. ones, germany to scrap the deal altogether with russia and has put sanctions on the project. germany has defended it as i can not make the necessary take a listen to what the german chancellor had to say. how many of us, you know, we have talked about china and there is a great common understanding that 1st lead china is a competitor in many areas that trade with china has to be based on us having a level playing field. that means that the standards are the same. incidentally, this was a major point of negotiation and the china investment agreement, coleman and andrew adair from the german engineering association. the dna joins us now. thank you very much for joining us, andrew. and it's kind of hard to, to, to draw conclusions from this meeting. it seems to simply be a holding pattern and a whole bunch of subjects, nod stream, china and so on, is by than just biding his time until merkel success comes along a good morning. thanks for having me. yes, in some ways that's true, althoug

u. s. national security. that it would have disastrous effects on european security by making them subject to economic energy blackmail from russia, and that it would enrich and in power to carry out that black male. you continue to believe that i do sen will economist cross says that the u. s. concession could be assign, the biden simply had no more cause to play. i think you got to look at the context of the recent meetings and discussions between biden and europeans, particularly jeremy, you know, the germans, the europeans, considered us position on the global tax and not taxing us tech companies. i think this is probably a quid pro quo to some extent of biking, can feeding what as everyone knows, it's already a done deal and allowing the germans to continue and get the cheaper gas. you got to understand that this whole sanctions over a gas began nordstrom to begin under trump, when the us had a lot of natural gas and prices were falling. and you know, the industry, the o l industry, which trouble is running interference for their solution was to make the europeans forced them to buy us gas. that would cause prices arise in t

russia and ukraine remains in place. that provides kia with annual fees for allowing russian gas supplies to pass through its territory. the u. s. and germany is joint statement also contained a strong warning for moscow saying that russia may face punishment if it uses the pipeline for political gains. and while merkel calls the deal a positive step forward, she cautions that it didn't resolve all of the differences with germany's transatlantic allies. furthermore, although the u. s. is pledging to no longer stand in the way some american officials are still upset. concerns were voiced once again at a recent senate hearing and washington that the pipeline poses a threat to both us and use security. you told this committee that you believed the nordstrom to pipeline would have disastrous effects on u. s. national security. that it would have disastrous effects on european security by making them subject to economic and energy blackmail from russia and that it would enrich and power to carry out that blackmail. do you continue to believe that i do sen? we spoke to an economist jack rasmus, who says that the u. s. concession coul

u. s, but also canada, russia, spain, extreme heat, waves record temperatures in many parts of the world. you know, a lot of people point to climate change. is this climate change, or is this just weather? well, it's both, but it's definitely climate change. one thing that we know for sure is the climate change is fueling heat and making them more severe and that's exactly what we are seeing and also exactly what we can linquist, anticipate methods to climate change. and we are seeing in particularly the case of the northwest and heat wave in the us and canada to be and not just loading the dice and making extreme he's based more frequent. we're also seeing untreated entity meant that wouldn't have happened without climate change. so we not just throwing was 6 is if you want to say, so climate change just making us throw sentence. and the impact of this is i know being felt all over north america. and part of your job is in fact, you know, not just to assess what's happening right now, but also to perhaps project into the future when it comes to the impact of climate change. what are you

u. s. is of course, worried that russia might use the gas pipeline to put political pressure on ukraine, and of course, the u. s. also wants to sell their own gas to europe. critics. and so president biden does want some form of guaranteed for ukraine from germany because the pipeline will, in all likelihood be completed. and we're hearing now that after the meeting between boston and michael, there'll be some form of washington declaration which will get out the joint vision between the 2 countries in terms of addressing political challenges. well, live together, like repent, demik, of kind of sun libya, but also russia, china, and ukraine. but how much of a vision can see acts actually presents? she's leaving office in a couple of months. it will be going to be any firm commitments that she can still make because of course hartford to do demons go to the polls in september angle america will then stay in office until the new coalition government is formed here that can take a couple of weeks a month, but of course many of the concrete deals with the u. s. will have to be negotiated with th
