of europe in the world. and you are right, we need to do to get the act together. somehow we need to understand what are the challenges that are coming up in the next decade and the next 20 years and 50 years down the road and be able to plan ahead. and of course, the idea is to do this in a kind of a multi lateral away, and in a way that preserves somehow peaceful cooperation between trading partners between associates in this case. okay. i mean, we do have run out of time. we've run out of time, i guess a major question is, can europe survive the european union to be continue gentlemen? okay, many thanks them i guess in paris and in guilford. and thanks to our viewers for watching us here at r t c. next time. remember, pa stuck with ah, join me every thursday on the alex salmon. sure. i'll be speaking together for the world politics sport. business. i'm sure business. i'll see you then. mm. i look forward to talking to you all. that technology should work for people. a robot must obey the orders given by h

or, you know, outside europe. then i think that we would be looking into a more and more successful global position of europe in the world. and you are right now we need to get the act together. somehow we need to understand what are the challenges that are coming up in the next decade and the next 20 years and 50 years down the road and be able to plan ahead. and of course, the idea is to do this in a kind of a multi lateral way. and in a way that preserves somehow peaceful cooperation between trading partners between associates in this case. okay. i mean, we're brought out of time. we've run out of time, i guess the major question is can europe survive the european union to be continue gentlemen? ok, many thanks them i guess in paris and in guilford. and thanks to our viewers for watching us here at r t c. next time. remember, talk with with kaiser financial survival guide. when customers go buy, you reduce the price. now well, reduce a lower that standard cutting, but what's good for food market? it's not good

of europe in the world. and you are right now we need to do to get the act together. somehow we need to understand what are the challenges that are coming up in the next decade and the next 20 years and 50 years down the road and be able to plan ahead. and of course, the idea is to do this in a kind of a multi lateral away. and in a way that preserves somehow peaceful cooperation between trading partners between associates in this case. okay, when we run out of time, we've run out of time, i guess a major question is, can europe survive the european union to be continued gentlemen? ok, many thanks to my guess in paris and in guilford in an thanks to our viewers for watching us here. at our t. c. next on remember prostate with ah, ah, also for eric room identify 2 types of freedom, freedom froman, freedom to. and while we all idealized the lesser achieving the former, the freedom from use and abuse is no small feat in this day and age. this is especially true for africa, which, for centuries has been exploite

, then europe gets new opportunities and a new world. europe is love any longer, completely dependent to the united states. so the america united america playing dia, politics to preserve their global leadership role as the only superpower. and they don't care about consumer prices and energy security. in europe, they care on their ah power. and that's the game giant. and so they, they are supporting the warranty ukraine they are attacking. and then she surprised russia. it's one strategy. and what we see is, is a part of that strategy let. so let's, let's talk more about this gas issue and what, what is going to a bit of a gas argument really. so no stream to the, the latest russian gas pipeline going directly from russia under the baltic into germany. it's basically completed now and they've just started putting gas just in the 1st section of his pipeline now. so it's not going to get to europe for a while. but there are numerous rash, russian gas pipelines that feed europe from the north, from the east, from the south as well. does it, you know, after all these years of anti russia

between europe in china, i don't see any real problem. we have in europe. we need to re industrialize the continent and we have to look, let me jump in here. look, let me jump in real quick as we're almost out of time, i want to go to our guest in beijing to react to the taiwan issue because i want to everyone, i want this to be fair and balanced. go ahead. the issue of taiwan over the issue of taiwan is very simple. the u. s. has no intention and no capability of defining the island china actually went in. but they are, you know, as you recall from the general's call to the chinese counterparts during trumps administration, at the end of it, it was the, the chinese were afraid that the u. s. is trying to goad them into doing some sort of military action against taiwan. so the u. s. the claim that, yes, see china is the terrible over. we've always said it. everyone has to rally around us american exceptional lives forever. so i want to be very care or not another on other down the usaa idea re conjuring the world. ok, gentlemen, very robust discussion here.

yes, together, europe is necessarily weak, precisely because we use the word europe, but it doesn't really mean anything. and the consequence of this is that the united states can behave in the most bizarre way towards europe, ignoring not, not in telling them by the way where we growing from afghanistan. not even telling them by the way we're making a special on baxter with australia and the united kingdom. so the humiliation pied on the humiliation. and there is no way in which euro can form a hold that i jump in here. i'm going to hold, i'm gonna jump in here, please hold that, that we're going to go to a hard break. and after that hard break, we'll continue our discussion on european securities name starting ah with imagine picking up a future textbook on the early years of the 21st century. what are the chapters cold, gun violence, school shootings, homelessness? first, it was my job and then it was my family. didn't was my savings. i have nothing. i have nothing and it's not like i don't try. i look for resources, i look for jobs. i look for everything i can to make this pass and i e

you in gas prices in europe. he take new records with the german government warning people to prepare for a close to freezing month. meantime, the country energy regulators still the ground and operating license to the now fully completed russia node stream to gas pipeline.

or, you know, outside europe. then i think that we would be looking into a more and more successful global position of europe in the world. and you're right . we need to do to get the act together. ah somehow ah, we need to understand what are the challenges that are coming up in the next decade and the next 20 years and 50 years down the road and be able to plan ahead. and of course, the idea is to do this in a kind of a multi lateral away. and in a way that preserves somehow peaceful cooperation between trading partners between associates in this case. okay, when we do have run out of time, we've run out of town, i guess a major question is can europe survive the european union to be continued gentlemen? okay, many thanks to my guests in paris and in guilford, and thanks to our viewers for watching as he heard our t c next time. remember, ross stuck with ah ah, ah ah, [000:00:00;00] ah ah, ah, ah, oh, is your media a reflection of reality? in the world transformed what will make you feel safer? isolation for com

our gas supplied to europe. the number one ingredient in mr. putin's recipe for the volatility in prices. not to come back any time soon. that is a long term contracts when gas prices aren't fixed, but they depend on the current market situation and the oil prices. by the way, what's a major cause for concern for us? some very important european politicians is the transit of russian natural gas through ukraine beyond 2024. well, lot of putin said that russia is ready to keep that in place, as long as it knows how much gas europe is willing to buy in the future. i e, he wants these long term contracts again, what russia ones is stability and predictability. we discussed the issue with international and strategic affairs expert francis peron, he thinks that there is a u turn happening within the u over the use of russian gas with some countries now striving to import more separate. jessica, you add up to the new in that she strategy, which is scored a net sheet union, which means to speak clearly for you again, co

and we also need to get a little bit west in europe century, less western europe century because when you go to, you know, athlete time, other places where people need mobility, they may not have the money to invest in all that an electric vehicle infrastructure. so we need to make sure we keep the we still and like we find and power whilst we move on that fast speed towards energy transition address. let's just move the debate on quick and talk about emissions. i mean, what impact you think the energy crisis then we'll have on you emission commitments . i mean, if renewables on foss enough on cold and gas as you say, a plug in the gap, how is that like it? and to play out next month, clock $26.00 in glasgow. well 1st of all, i say, you know, the current crunch said we're talking about is, i mean, it is not great and it's difficult and it will affect the most vulnerable people across europe and elsewhere. but i would still say it's temporary, it is something that will go away after you know, a couple of months when, when the markets will change again. well, when we're going to have a

you end up with all of these strange dynamic swear in europe, -- strange dynamics where in europe, europe needs investment in industrial batteries to increase storage of electricity, but europeans won't buy those in asia because the factories that produce those batteries are powered by coal, so you end up with a shortage of batteries in europe, which means you can't have the electricity you need to power electric vehicles. so there will be sequencing issues where if you take the purest approach where you don't want to have any exposure to coal, you don't build the infrastructure you need to allow this transition to happen. i think that is a challenge which we are in right now, wher it ise a sequencing issue. you do need a lot of energy to transform the system to a new one, but how do you power that transformation? renewable alone won't be enough to do that. alix: how do you make money off of this? bilal: the way to make money is to understand that in the end, paradoxically, there will be a lot more demand for fossil fuels then people would initially anticipate. there has been chronic unde

as europe grapples with high prices. the president also agrees to boost supplies to the you while saying the block brought the crisis on itself. what church against the state catholic bishops in france at loggerheads with the government after a report reveals hundreds of thousands of crimes against children committed by the clergy. we speak to one of the victims. when we came to france, i was 8 and 9 years old. so i spent almost 2 years there until i was sexually assaulted. but pray not what shameful is not apologizing for an atrocity committed in catholic institutions on hundreds of children. ah. i brought kathy live direct from our studios in moscow. this is our t international. glad to have you with us as we recap to weeks top stories. but 1st we start with our special coverage of a trail blazing russian film. their crew returned to earth from the international space station. actress julia per sealed ended director clement chapin co spent 12 days on board. the i assess making the world's 1st movie shot in orbit. ah ah

we, in short guaranteed uninterrupted gas deliveries to europe. we have every reason to believe that this year we will reach record levels of gas deliveries on the global market. when prices are volatile, when they're going through the roof, what can help with that extra supplies? president prudent said that there was not a single occasion when rushes energy joined gas from refused a request from europe for additional natural gas exports. and what mr. brewton was asked of straightforward question whether moscow has ever used the energy sector as a political weapon. his answer was straightforward. no, want to ask you about it directly. has russia been using energy as a weapon? russia's not using any weapons. if you've been paying attention as for the economy, where are we using weapons in what conflicts are we taking part and for the economy? this is not something we tend to use. this is what i call a politically motivated talk. there's nothing to support it when it comes to saying that we use energy as some kind of weapon at the end of the day. i

p. europe business school in london. welcome to you, sir. as well as prompt getting your overall taken. what's happening now in europe? can i put one aspect to you? the hungarian prime minister has laid the blame for the current gas crisis in europe at brussels doorstep. do you agree that the use push for renewables may have played a role? indeed, it is a major reason for the classes in europe. european loan has been pushing nicholas he for his transition at the expense or i'm dr. collection. in sobering, it has affected investment and production of oil and gas. and without that fixing the demand for them, which means they why, again, the better sense in the market. hence, you're not getting and gas prices. now. they're not a moral. they have been paying politics with the stream turn gas pipeline. if they won't, they won't gas from russia. they should have issued a temporarily operation. her license for not assume can 15 trial b cubic meters. just do that. and then we'll let you go before january the start doing a cation process. so our ques

and europe. as you just said, in your, your 1st story is very dependent, still dependent on the guest deliveries from russia, from our region, from other parts of the world. and russia has built this infrastructure to help her europe, to secure the energy flows through europe. but again, there is this political logical problem, the brussel commission of the you and of course, party like the greens they are a lot of forces in the european union of other countries, especially in the east europe. even countries are against to close corporation with russia out of political reasons, not of commercial reasons. the did seem to be this relentless push towards green policies and with no stream to if that is implemented on it gets the, the full go ahead in europe. might it slow down those policies that depends to be seen, but germany wants to become the, the model for green policy, for a building, a green modernized economy. and it's very stubborn in that. and you will see that the new government in german

we favour energy security of europe. we want to work collaboratively with them, with countries in europe, and with the european union for that case in order to ensure that there would be no jumps like the current one... if you are so determined to send that message, why is it that according to the international energy agency, russia is providing less gas to europe today than it did before the coronavirus pandemic, and the iea believes russia could "definitely do more to increase gas availability to europe." why aren't you? gazprom have in fact started pumping out from its reserves into the pipelines to stabilise the market. i believe the demand skyrocketed against the background of very slow winds that, in many ways, negatively affected renewables, especially in northern europe and in great britain, for that case, in the uk. i am not an expert here. i do recognise that there are such sentiments widely spread out, but i would also refer to it as an element of what we believe is an in—and—out information war that west

it supplies 40% of the natural gas going into europe. there's deep concern in europe about the leverage that gives moscow. are you prepared right now to alleviate those concerns? very much so. in fact, this is exactly what we have done in recent days and weeks, including with direct and personal involvement of president putin, who spoke very forcefully in favour of doing maximum on the part of russia to stabilise this market. we are the most secure, reliable and forward—looking supplier of natural energy to europe. we have always been such a supplier and we will continuously work to this end. we invite all the colleagues in the european union and beyond, including our neighbours, to recognise this simple fact — we favour energy security of europe. we want to work collaboratively with them, with countries in europe, and with the european union for that case in order to ensure that there will be no jumps like the current one. but if you're so determined to send that message, why is it that, according to the international energy agency,

and i believe they would have pushed more gas in europe. and so therefore we wouldn't be in such a dire situation today. terry, appreciate you coming on, get your expert analysis, my guest here, ross energy expert, thank you. thank you. with a natural gas price in europe. i mentioned it a moment ago. i sought in fact, as an all time record, it's now nearly 6 times incredible. what it was just in the spring with a consonant uncles for major energy crunch and it is light that internal divisions within the block of brussels green policies. it oliver has ml, while prices are as high as they are on the commodities markets. this isn't so much going to trickle down to consumers as perhaps these prices are gonna fall upon homeowners from a more domestic home uses, form a great height to what we've heard from the european commission president ursula found a lion is that she recognizes that there are major problems that we're facing right now and problems that are coming down the pipe further along, but says that in the long term, it's renewable ener

so not stream to again, could help them out, could help europe, europe out and because it, well it is, it is a new technology and it can handle the large volumes. but well, it is being opposed to the launch of nord string to is being opposed due to political resit reasons. russia says, so. so far russia has been very understanding and will, has been doing according to the russian president again, everything that it could. but it is unclear as to how many more steps russia will take, you know, are which won't be reciprocated for some of her dates relation. i really enjoyed as well. basically, a u energy officials got greedy thought of being clever, and they messed up. thanks so much enjoy that they get it better than i did. now, thea, natural gas price in europe, as we said, it's in soaring salt on ice recently. it's now nearly 6 times what it was in the spring while and is put the continent on course for major energy crunch and laid bare internal divisions within the block over brussels green policies. what is peter oliver explains? while prices are as high as they are on the commodit

he also pledged to supply more gas if europe requested it. he also stressed the importance of the now completed nord stream to gas pipeline, under the baltic sea, which is still awaiting the final green light from europe. this year to look up as far as north stream to has been served or what opponents and the project have claim that this is not a commercially viable product and russia, if pursuing geopolitical motivations week, well, you know, this is yet another ballistic nonsense. is that what i just like to pay closer attention to what i'm saying on this route is 2000 kilometer shorter and quicker to our main consumers in europe that and via ukraine d. c. 2000 kilometers more efficient. it's cheaper because transit is cheaper to do, and it's also cheaper for common virtues because the transit fee has to be included in the ann rice in particular for european customers. we are doing this, it isn't white, are political differences. this year we have increased supply by 10 percent. again, let me very much like them to be grateful. instead of o

i and i haven't been to europe. and i don't, i don't understand the point that you're making see, she hasn't been to europe though. what does that have to do with her job to handle? one of america's worst ever boarded problems. ran in yours is a little bit. and if you think about it camel harris fits perfectly into the now very political hollywood crowd. and just like silver screen superstars, sometimes she just misses the target with some of her statements just a few days ago with israel, which has my heart because i think that people have that that. and again, this is about the fact that your voice, your perspective, your experience, your truth, and then just like a good agency, her office has to clear the air. while visiting george mason university to discuss votes and writes a student voice to personal opinion during the political science class, the vice president stroke would disagree with the student's characterization of for israel smiles and handshake. so they work miracles when you're making a movie, korea,

i agree with europe. the city authorities had the right to not to promote algebra t everyone has this prize. nubian union should find another way it look like that. i'm not a sign of pro l g b t zones. that on the other hand, every one has a right to their own life. in under part of the european union, it is very unfair. such things should not be combined. here is the man and here's the money. they're completely separate matters. i think nothing should be done by force. if there is no such need in poland, you do not have to force anything local governors justified there. you turn saying that they are not ready to be accountable for the financial loss. when expert we heard from told us that such an approach by the you to maintain unity in the block as a path to dictatorship. every local power should act according to the wheel. and i have a lot of a degree of power, especially in this case, especially in this case. so, you know, i'm not entering into the subject matter, not talking about about the lesbian g

so the real income of workers in europe is rising. that's a testimony to a lot of things, but it includes the much stronger position of their labor movement, which is able to make things happen there that we don't have here. and i think that americans are learning that they're looking fondly and enviously, and they're going to be moving in the logical direction to get closer to that. now we're speaking of the timing here. i mean, we've obviously been talking about huge supply chain constraints recently as all of this goes on and we look at strikes that, i mean, john deere, catalogs named best go just to name if you could, these cause further issues, they actually get employers to listen more so than they would have in the past. yes, but i think what we have to look at is, is to be a little careful here. and a little economics, basic economics prices rise. when the people who set prices choose to raise them, those people are called employers. employees don't set prices, employers do. and when employers raise prices as they are doing no

of europe in the world. and you are right now we need to do to get the act together. somehow we need to understand what are the challenges that are coming up in the next decade and the next 20 years and 50 years down the road and be able to plan ahead. and of course, the idea is to do this in a kind of a multi lateral way. and in a way that preserves somehow peaceful cooperation between trading partners between associates in this case. okay, when we were brought out of time, we've run out of time, i guess a major question is, can europe survive the european union to be continue, gentlemen? ok, many thanks them i guess in paris and in guilford ink. and thanks to our viewers for watching us here at r t c next time, remember rostock with ah, with oh, is your media a reflection of reality? with in the world transformed? what room you feel safe? ah, isolation, whole community? are you going the right way or are you being led to some with direct? what is true war? his faith in a world corrupted. you need to descen

and you said that you are not supplying gas through pipelines to europe. but actually, you are mistaken, you are mistaken. and all of those who feed on the information they receive, we are actually increasing our supplies to europe. or the reality is there's a whole multitude of reasons for why demand for gas in europe is currently so high . and why supplies of gas and reserves of gas are so low. so when you've got that high demand and you've got, but while low availability, you get high prices. and that's what we're seeing at the moment we have heard from vladimir putin in the recent past though, saying that once russia's own reserves of gas have been replenished, that we may well see russian supply is supplying more of that gas to europe. i, peter, thanks for that. the pakistani national has been cleared fraud release from america's guantanamo bay prison after 17 years in confinement. this comes 6 years after the u. s. concluded he should never have been there in the 1st place as he was mistaken originally for a terrorist. and even out of on his fate is

we in short guaranteed uninterrupted gas deliveries to europe. we have every reason to believe that this year we will reach record levels of gas deliveries on the global market and due to one. ah, what exactly could help europe in this particular situation? what kinda make sure the prices go down. well, perhaps the answer is obvious. that is, extra supplies to the continent. and what mister pope said during that panel discussion was that whenever russia was request it for a boost in exports the answer from moscow. the answer from gas from russia's gas, that was always yes. so russia never said no. and when mister proven was asked a direct question whether moscow was ever using energy as a political weapon. the answer from them, from his, from him, sorry, was straightforward. the answer was no one to ask you about it directly. has russia been using energy as a weapon? russia is not using any weapon capsule. if you've been paying attention, as for the economy where we're using weapons and what conflicts are we taking part and for the economy, this

s. less rain in china and brazil, less wind in europe. i don't know while or visit events appeared, occur. but this, as i would say, well or the inventories on gas. and so we see today and exceptional circumstance, i think that after winter time we should be able to come back to better prices and lower prices, which would be good for everybody. thanks so much for that, patrick, i'm going to bring in bernard at this point when you think about this with regards to b p, we understand that the you, of course, is talking about composing legislation today. they're going to roll that out in brussels, which would essentially require that all oil and gas drilling would be stopped in the arctic and that there would be an inability to bring those products to market. obviously that would impact to total energy. that would impact be potentially and how worried are you about that? well, again, and it's great to be here and in moscow as well. thank you for including b p in the conversation. i think what this crisis in europe regard to prices has reminde

some of the concerns in europe, do you think? well, i think we have to admit that russia is like the backbone of our gas supply in europe . and so round about 40 percent of the gas supplies originate from russia. and of course it's a strong cycle, a signal that now and not stream to pipeline has been finished and there is hope for a good and stable. and also it cannot mix supply of natural gas for the european union. and i'm proud that germany was able also to stay firm in this project and not to give up a because of the resistance. also, the european union was getting greater and greater, not only on behalf of the united states to complete this project. we need that project. we see it now with the soaring gas prices. and i hope that we will find a solution soon to fill up the gas reset wars again because they are only at 30 percent, which is quite low before the winter is beginning. and as we've spoken about on occasion before, liner at the north stream to pipeline has been bug done with sanctions delays over the years. do you t

now in terms of storage now in europe and the u. k. were at about not 76 percent, which compares with the 10 year average of 90 percent. now if we get a cold winter ahead, we could see that dictated down to 8 percent, which is a record low. and even if we just say as a normal winter, not too cold, that still gonna get depleted town to around 19 percent, which is the 2nd lowest in a decade. so it really does feel as though this problem isn't going anywhere. take years, we head into a cold winter. now on top of that, there have been weather concerns because there has been a historically low levels of wind, which has meant that renewables have been suffering because turbines haven't been powered as well as they might normally be. yeah, one more time we'd get into that with you, but we're just right. i'd for tory, a scholar, market on live and our to international. thank you very much. thank this is are to still ahead front, threatens the current power supplies to the you carry a mid, a post briggs rover, fishing writes about 3 and more co
