the united states treasury waders published a note on the topic of how she feels satisfaction from thes. it’s been there for less than a month, but already the income of the russian federation, despite the fact that russian oil remained on the international the market fell sharply, which, according to yen, does not allow russia to develop its defense industry in the future. us treasury secretary jennette yen said on tuesday that a ceiling on russian oil prices imposed by western countries in december appears to have achieved its goals of keeping russian oil on the market while limiting russian revenues, although the crude oil price ceiling has only been in place for about a month. we are already seeing early progress towards the goals. in addition, a senior russian official admitted that the price ceiling is reducing revenues. the russian energy commissioner said yen said public reports indicate countries are using the new ceiling to strike lucrative deals on the prices of oil imported from russia, elin added, the g7 coalition also aims to set two price caps on russian refined products

united states shares the point of view, but the need for further confrontation. with china today. uh, the leading american forrinface magazine published a very interesting article by former united states treasuryfor the united states itself and makes it weaker, listen, china and the united states are rapidly moving from competitive but sometimes cooperative relationships to relationships that are in almost every sense confrontational as a result of the us facing the prospect and putting its companies at a disadvantage compared to their allies, which limits their ability to commercialize innovations. this could lead to a loss of market share in third countries for those who fear that the united states is losing the competitive race with china. us actions threaten to make fear a reality. the us is trying to organize a coalition of like-minded countries. first of all, the democracies of asia and europe to balance china and put pressure on it, but this strategy does not work. it hurts both the us and china, and in the long run it will probably hurt the americans more than the chinese. while many countries share washington's distaste for china's politics and behavior , none of them follow washingto

. >> the other thing to remember the short term borrowing costs of the united states was zero. treasury bills, 13 week treasury bills, what were they 13 basis points. that is over .1 of 1%. right now we're at 4%. so the weighted average coupon of that $31 trillion of debt is rising. what are we doing? we're borrowing money to pay debt service. we are borrowing it at a price that is four, five, six times what it was just a year ago. so i think from a fiscal perspective, i think it is all demented quite honestly. i think 435 or 434 santos is gone members about the house should come together trying to find a way for our kids, grandkids, not to be paying this bill. neil: depends if you like your kids and grandkids. i wonder how far republicans push it. sometimes they find common ground to freeze spending or slow spending. whether you're going way, way back to gramm-rudman, stick towing very harsh spending limits they break it like a bad diet and that is the history here. so i suspect even if a deal is made on spending, that might be a leap, it will be short-lived. i just wonder stepping bac

united states. that is the treasury secretary basically begging congress to give further tools to pay our bills. so let me just give you all a refresher out, they're the debt limit is not about new spending. the debt limit dictates how much the government can borrow to pay its bills that are already do. the united states has never intentionally failed to pay its debts before but house republicans say they are threatening to drive america over that cliff unless they get the drastic spending cuts they are demanding. never mind that the national debt increased by 7.5 trillion dollars under former president trump and that they, republicans raised that ceiling with no hesitation three times while trump was president. this is not just boring but keeping folks, if the country does default on its loans, you will feel the impact. according to the think think third, way americans would lose 3 million jobs. the average worker nearing retirement could see $20,000 and savings erased. prices of everyday items will skyrocket, and after all of that, the national debt would actually increase at more than 800 bil

united states has broken through the ceiling of the national debt and now the ministry of finance does not have the right to borrow american economy lives in debt. and so the united states secretary of the treasuryncial the system is based on the fact that the government of america can be trusted and can be counted on us treasury securities - this is the safest investment in the world we will definitely have a downgrade of the national debt. if this happens, our borrowing costs will increase, these costs will also increase for every american, in addition, the inability of the bondholder to make payments to social security services or our military will lead to a recession in the us economy, this will also mean a global financial crisis, and this will undoubtedly undermine the role of the dollar as the world's reserve currency, which is used in transactions around the world, many americans will lose their jobs, and their debt payments will only grow. and here is such a pitiful statement made by senegal and now everything depends on the republicans, who must give permission in congress to raise the ceiling of the state for a long time, they are in no hurry to do this and, moreover, they are inferio
