we urge the u. s. to see the reality as ease and then to begin a real effort to manage these intolerable situation. from how you're describing the embassy staffing issue. does it appear that it can only get worse before it improves? i hope not. i hope improvement spouts right away and with anticipation of some, you know, reason in the position that we are already now in the process of preparing ourselves for that agreed round of lower level expert consultations on bilateral irritants. to use to use the vocabulary which we use here at the foreign ministry, because the will of course, be a lot of russians listening closely to what you're saying because it's being difficult, of course, to get american visas, hasn't it? off course of course the burdens dozens of thousands of people waiting and not knowing what to do. i'm traveling to distant places applying ah, online for a visa, or you know, a processing sound were bead yet even the nozzle thumb be wherever they can get. that's troubling, that's terrible.

s. and the u. s. backed political actors at the time that created the crisis, and russia did not invade crimea or sylvester pool. they were there already. and there was a, there was a transition to crimea was reunited with russia and had been separated in 1954. so these nuances never get talked about, and so they think rushes in, violation of all these international laws, and that justifies nato expansion. so if we come to a forum, if we come to a negotiation table, these details should come out. will they though? is this what the u. s. wants do they want to have that conversation? i don't think they do. i don't think their allies do. they want to keep it in the realm of hyperbolic aggressive to drive by comments and accusations. because there you don't have to have, you know, you really don't have to abide by any international agreements or treaties. your just seem to be reacting to russian aggression. so i think this is a really important point, you know, a document set out for present in each co

so this is difficult for the u. s. and there, i think there's a little bit of panic setting in, in recent years, is finding a way to stay relevant, finding way to stay in there. no charge if, if washington and its allies reject these 2 documents. so, where do we go from there? because it seems to me that they are not taking this seriously. i think they're blinded by their own ideology. i think they're blinded by the sense of them being morally superior, which has nothing to do with international relations or international law. i mean, we're really in a quandary right now, but i don't think they understand the, the unstable situation that they have created. because russia is not going to surrender it's, it's national security full stop. yes, yes, i think so. and i think the, this goes together with the crisis in ukraine, which is what we were talking about the beginning. but the rest of the very comes with nato converging ukraine into just one giant aircraft carrier with dumping this huge amount of military hardware tra

true for the u. s. u in china, closing and not $600000000000.00 and trade china is the use are just trading are now it's applied to the west. and now they're talking about how they can rain in china, how they can change china. i just doesn't make a lot of sense this idea of having military tactics or directions against your largest rate, or i think it just, it is from mixing. and that's, that's really what it is. but we live in a, you know, kind of post hypocritical age and i, you started thinking about it here in one sense, we're about 226. everyone's concerned about china's, you know, making a commitment to getting. 5 5 you know, coal down and they are say they're going to stick to the long term goals, but there's a fluctuation right now because it, but on the other hand, your pin is, are absolutely concerned that china will not be able to supply enough of title interior goals. for cars, because why they haven't had enough electricity because they're not now having to burn coal. so on one hand, they s

if the u. s. were to introduce 100 year bonds, or 200 year bonds, that's not going to solve it. negative interest rates are not going to solve it. this is now pretty much heading toward a real catastrophe. yeah, and again, one analogy we've made in the past is the cargo called the cargo. carl was in the south pacific islands who were suddenly confronted by the advanced japanese army, the air force, and then the u. s. air force. and they saw all these planes arrive and they delivered food and brought all these things right. and then once the army is left, they thought that the signaling for the plane would delay for all those goods again . and that's what we have with the fed is like, we have some sort of memory of pre $9071.00 gold standard wealth creation we, we remember manufacturing. remember, when we had all that wealth creation, we had wealth, and the wealthy people and wealth, the wealth was measured and money. so if we just print more of this money, a things will suddenly emerge out appear,

the u. s. and russia's top diplomats meet for the 1st time while tensions flare rushes military build up near the border with you quite. u. s. reinstates a trump iraq policy requiring asylum seekers to remain in mexico. ah. arising corona, virus infections and the arrival of the new variant are pushing several nations to look at stricter measures to contain the spread in germany, unvaccinated people will be banned from much of public life. outgoing chance. langler merkel calling the restrictions an act of national solidarity. germany's parliament duels or owes also considering imposing a vaccine mandate. andrew simmons reports on the situation across europe in less than a week. the abi chrome variant has swept the globe with more uncertainty about covert in many countries, especially in europe. new restrictions were being introduced anyway, with the winter surgeon delta variant infections. germany is the latest to announce new measures. signs like these vaccinate immunized is the way this count

the u. n. n u . s. has called on the military not to intervene in the protest regional and international acts as have been urging general han to reverse his school and was though the transitional government, which he dissolved on monday, but many protest this year. so even if that happens, it so falls short of their demands to completely hand over power to civilian rule. the people on how to toombs. 3, call it a power, grab and demand, a returned to a democratic process. so let's take a closer look at the pro democracy groups who are behind the protests. there is the sudanese professionals association. it's a network of independent trade unions and it's demanding the restoration of the transitional government. it includes the sudanese dr. central committee. it's been documenting the injuries and deaths of protest hers to counter the government official figures. then there's a so called resistance committees, grassroot bodies spread across the country, whose members organized protests in their local comm

the u. s. for the making of an anglo saxon race make one empire of the anglo saxon race. churchill, in 1946 iron curtain speech talked about measuring the us and british military together. so they would work together with the british empire here. ready saw that the british empire was pretty much over at that point. and he wanted to join britain to the united states. and then of course, britain in $48.00 the last and for spouse time they gave up on an india and certainly $956.00 of the suez crisis was really the end when the united states stood up to britain. that was the final point where the united states took over the relationship and britain decided to join itself to the u. s. empires as an anglo saxon empire. but today we now see the rise of china, its alliance growing alliance with russia. this alarms more the anglo saxon countries than i think britain and france and germany. we saw what happened after the ukraine sanctions. german businessmen were not happy at all about german sanctions o

s. link on. so in 2020 the, the u. s. was knocked off the top spot, but that seemed to be a one off. and now the u. s him to be reclaiming his rightful space in that area. i will say in, in china, in general, i mean it's called huge economy. but unlike the u. s. government owned enterprise of cycled state and enterprise, much, much bigger role than they do in the u. s. and the certain sectors, entire sectors where the state and enterprise is sort of the dominant game. so if you look at things like a v, a sion or utilities or transportation or banking, you can't really get in as, as a phone company. and that's going to hamper the chinese for some time to come. i guess the sumption we've been that they will have a more limited role for the state in the future. but that does not seem to be happening. so they still account for about one course of the countries output, and they seem to be holding study that says not greater liberalization taking place here in china. so you're saying, because despite tensions with the way it's

c t study the u. s. l. thirty's were unreal and saying in their perceived, why are your diesel so dirty? how do you explain this? the v w engineers continued to equivocate, while keeping quiet about the defeat device. ah, our plan was to stall for time. ah, when questioned, we were not to say a word about the technical background, an internal email in march 2015, set words to the effect of b. w is on thin ice in the u. s. and further, if i say what i know, they'll be red face is all round but as i fuck met was now obvious that the people also in the u. s. had no idea what to do any more and were at a complete loss. tried to shop was free, it was an awful atmosphere. god should i. we realized that they were sweating. the fan were at their wits end, missouri listen, eventually v w faced an ultimatum from the u. s. so sorties, either you provide an explanation or we won't certify your new cars. with disaster looming v w held one crisis meeting off to the next vin to con himself faced damning testimony from

the u. s. has no intention and no capability of defining the island and i actually went in, but they are, you know, as you recall from the generals, 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, so 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 another down us down the usaa idea where you conquering the world. ok, gentlemen, very robust discussion here. i'm sure we're going to see a whole lot more particularly in the issue of taiwan with western audiences are being scared with here as all the time. we have many thanks, i guess in beijing, prague. and i look on that and thanks to our view is for watching us here archie's . the next time, remember of cross tacos with at states has to

s. hesitates to put any real kind of strict sanctions as a result of that is because the u. s. is doing it as well. the fact that the state constantly does isn't the ca doesn't. we know they say we're talking in the angle of merkel cell phone just a couple of years ago. right. and so if you create a big deal out of punishing countries that spy on other countries, when the us would be right in the cross hairs of their own policies. but you know, to the question of creating a stable, predictable relationship. i was watching the news conferences afterwards, and there was a very interesting question that was asked about ukraine to put in about what, what about creating stability there and you've been the state life and the region. and his response, i thought, was pretty interesting. he says, it's not russia that's the stabilizing. that part of the world is the us. he says in ukraine, back in 2014, the u. s. wanted a new election. they were set to hold a new election and that wasn't good enough. so there was a, a qu, they over through the government, they replaced and installed thei

although the u. s. general accounting office has found that 11 similar programs during the last 30 in years are proven more expensive than planned or ended up behind schedule. and we discussed the story with dave lind off editor of the news website. this can't be happening. got net. every district has some work on these big weapons systems like fighter jets and bombers and, and ships. and so every congress person wants to have some work assigned to their district so that they can say that they created jobs. but it's a terrible plan. and also incredibly expensive, it's the most expensive, a fighter plane that's ever been built, you know, rather than buying more of those there, there was an effort to get the f 18 updated a bit so that it could be bought. and part of the deal is that if you happen to have more boeing plants in your district than you want the up 18 because it's made by boeing, it's all about having jobs in your district that you can brag about it the next election. well, any thoughts you th

the u. s. was caught unawares and i think once again, they have failed to analyze what the situation was. it really puts on full display, the delusions of the u. s. which after all, has been in afghanistan for almost 20 years. consuming, according to some estimates, 2 trillion dollars. this money has not gone to the benefit of the afghan people, obviously. and this whole enterprise has been very bad for the american people as well. many us soldiers have died. the good thing about exposing the delusions of the u. s. empire and the neo conservative to run u. s. foreign policy is that it's going to make them harder to continue. so there needs to be a lot more criticism and exposure of what the reality is versus what are the promises and the, the false estimates by us intelligence officials. now, many people weren't lucky enough to get a flight out of cabal this week. we heard from a german national, who's currently stuck in the country with his afghan fiance. and i just got set up . i'm a german c

the facing, the you and the u. s. going forward. things like that. women of steel tariffs that remain in place on you, metals that were posted to the trumpet administration, as well as the broader question of how closely the e u plans to align itself with the u. s. and their battle with china over a competition financial corresponded. chelsea delaney there, as you mentioned, there are other tariffs and dispute, including the steel levies imposed by the u. s. in 2018. those tariffs force you to introduce import quarters of steel to the top of a lot of the metal from china. but that's led to shortages and skyrocketing prices . the 2nd truck company in western germany makes stamped components for automobiles . the machine is constantly supplied with high grade rolled steel straight from the furnace. last year, tech trip paid $4900.00 euros for a relative steel. now it's $9000.00 tech and trucks. managing director blames the massive price icon. you protectionism, which is closed off the steel market here in guessing type home port quote

but the u. s. held him in jail for almost 7 years before eventually returning him. and that was only after he took legal action against america. journalist rich of med, hearst, revealed the case papers and told us more you know, they've told the sounds that he can serve any potential sentence in his home country, australia. they said the exact same thing to mendoza, they told him just just let him come to the us and he can serve any sentence given back in spain. in mendoza's case, the united states signed a contract, an explicit contract with mendoza, and with spain saying that he must be returned to spain. he can not be given a life sentence, he kind of tried for concert structuring. they violated this, the u. s. kept him for 6 years and 9 months. the only reason mendoza was allowed to go back to spain is because he sued spain twice in the spanish supreme court. and he won. and spain threatened to cut off the extradition treaty with the us. that is when the u. s. felt pressure, they wanted to keep

so the u. s. is trying to form the framework of this proposal and basically spread the western values and the western agenda, not saying hey, we're going to all work together. but hey, we're going to spread instead, our western influence instead, and this will lead to a splintering of the digital landscape. but this will all prove to be a very uphill battle for the u. s. because again, china already has a very strong foothold in all the south east asian nations are very dependent for a lot of the technology has come out such as ali bob intends on holding. this spent significant amounts of money and investment dollars in these countries. and right now you have over half a 1000000000 of these people, migrating their businesses and merchants on line, be 10 cent and alibaba. so it's going to be a very significant challenge for the us to kind of win them off of already entrenched chinese technology. and they've been china's president, she has actually spoken out recently about this possible deal making

so the u. s. is focusing more on china and asia, and thus it's shifting both its resources and it said already, accordingly, i was very obviously obvious with sabrina dealer with australia, by the way. so when the us so years will give less to europe, but ask for more in terms of asking you to, for example, come from china. and this is where i'm out of the tensions are these like a common interest and when you're peanuts the way, i think they do have a dilemma one hand, they seek to maintain the relevant to the u. s. by, for example, accepting but nato should also be an anti chinese lives. however, no matter what they do with this will be very superficial in temporary because china's too far waiting in the segment. nothing else. a threat to the european union to the same extent pregnancy dominance in the asia pacific. so it's also the problem for the used by joining this u. s. chris, a crusade against both the russia and the chinese. the u. s. isolated south because it becomes less able to diversi

b r 's by the u. s. government isn't just, you know, dumping all this crude oil into somebody who will that everyone then gets, it does need to take it needs take us. and the 1st tranches mentioned, you mentioned earlier, it is a low. so if you take a loan now that you have to repay in, in a couple of years time, you are ex, effect we taking a on a bet on future prices. and it depends very much on the condition that this loan will be offered up. whether you wanted or, and the 2nd fraction also will be put out in an auction tender. and it just will depend on whether the, the private, all industry figures that's a good deal. and because this is a big difference between us and for instance, china, which is also released as p r 's of last couple months. china isn't part of the international energy agencies that are not bound by this pledge to know it flows prices that quite open about whether they like prices or not. and also in china, the vast majority of all companies are state control. so the governmen

when ask about this new law in the u. s. this is seen as one of the toughest laws on the books facing some large companies that are doing business there, including apple, including mini textile manufacturers. how tough can this be? will this be, how do you look at it? i think it's a tremendously daunting from the company's perspective. they are being asked, the owners of proof is on them to show that their supply chains in no way are benefiting or relying rather on forced labor and change on. and you have to keep in mind that they already, sometimes, you know, it's not always easy for them to get to the bottom of, of where their products are being sourced. they tend to focus on their top tier suppliers. they don't want to get in trouble because a 1st or 2nd tier supplier isn't doing something that the us government might see as, as objectionable. but in this case, we have multiple tiers of suppliers. you know, 23456 level suppliers. and if any of those are relying on forced labor in china and particularly in change on those

now, returning back to the concern trolling of, you know, from the u. s. i want to make a note of like hillary clinton has a mullet now to kind of like tony blair has a mala, i thought it was bobby clark who played on the philadelphia flyers back in the 1970 s. she opens her mouth right now. she probably would be missing all of her teeth as a very karen hair do. i can't, i can't say minds not like needing to be a little bit fixed. i hope mine looks a little bit better than hers, but there is also elizabeth warren in the press and we just mentioned it at the end of the last episode. so i want to bring it up again here because you know, this is that the out regime, right? whereby everybody else gets the blame except for that mike. so hillary clinton was a new saying it's bitcoin, which is jeopardizing the us dollar as reserve currency. it's bit coins fall, it's not the fault of j. powell or the treasury, or the congress or the mismanagement over the past few decades of the u. s. economy is bitcoin. here we see, as a reminder with elizabeth warren said, wonde

as russia's top diplomat notes, the u. s. has torn up practically every treaty with moscow, sergey lab wars. the kremlin won't take kindly to even more harsh sanctions threatened by his american counterpart at toxins. we'd the trove of documents appears to show the u. s. government failed to prosecute cia employees suspected of child sex abuse. was your headlines this hour, my colleague and your farmer will be here in just about an hour's time with a full and fresh look at your new stay with us. this is our jan fashion. ah, i max kaiser, this is the kaiser re port one of the many paradoxes of big coin is that it wants everyone to attack it. that's what makes it strong. acid makes security go higher. that's it makes the price go higher. and now we've got some new delinquents on the same attacking bitcoin, stacy, well max, we have what are called concern trolls in the i guess you could say there's slipping into the big coin world from the monetary universe of theat. and they are looking very troll, like 1st of all, i use this p

the recent controversy surrounding the u. s. u. k and australia as new security pack has left in new leaders scratching their heads about what even means to be in nato anymore. the reason for nato existence is trans atlantic security. this is what we want to remind the united states off. therefore, our partners decided on our initiative as well as on the initiative of germany to revise the strategic concept of the alliance. being allies does not mean being hostage to the interest of another country. at 1st, the spat seemed confined to only a few powers. france being upset with the suspension of its submarine contract with australia, which resulted from offices provisioning of nuclear sub technology to the country. turns out, though brussels might now postpone a major summit with the us over the disagreement. and the entire strategic alliance is feeling the reverb. it is such a difficult issue where we see traditional alliances in some way torn apart are certainly changed fundamentally. but the issue doesn't stop there. one that doe

and, and it, and it kind of really damage the reputation of the u. s. a few other countries start saying, well, we're going to kind of, we're going to make our own laws and we'll pick and choose which ones we want. julie, that's a threat now to the yeah, yes, i a part of the i perfectly agree with you. but remember, i don't see a difference finance united kingdom and poland and having witnessed the situation of polo and the relations which are very tense. and they are getting more and more tense over the mumps between the war watson and war. so i will say, why don't we think about the for random also for poland? i mean, okay, you say you cannot afford, that's fine. but then why? why the british are better than the polish? i don't think so. and i afforded a dare to ask people if they wanted to be part of the union or not to my understanding as being a great move so far back sister. but has been decided by the british people in a very democratic way. so if the things get more and more times with poem, less give voice once again to the polish people. polis

the mercenaries were sold out to the u. s. government to provoke disable. the cuba accuses washington of inciting mass demonstrations across the country. thousands of taken to the st, protesting and economic crisis, and what they're calling for handling of the colbert pandemic, reviving the spirit of neo nazi segregation in europe. russia takes a shot at fran over covert vaccines, and that's as a senior official tells europe to reject jabs offered by moscow and beijing. starvation will eclipse the devastation of the pandemic. that's according to oxfam, which says, 11 people are dying from hunger around the world. every minutes we get insight from the charity also ahead of things of a sequence services. not only your drink come, shaken, not stirred. because the coolness god did. and of course, you always get the bad guy. frances, on the lookout for new spy talent. the national intelligence agency launches a recruitment drive we gauge reaction on the streets of paris. ah, coming to you live from our world news headquarters in moscow. this is our international

health experts in the u. s. a warning that the new coven omicron variant could be the dominant strain there in a matter of weeks and potentially overwhelm the health care system. it's also spreading in europe. the netherlands is imposing the strictest lockdown measures across christmas and well into mid january 1 in britain, there's a nation wide surge of infections there to london alone them as we declared a major incident. meaning the capitals, emergency services, and hospitals can't insure the usual level of response. the well health organization says the new variant is now in 89 countries. despite its spread early studies from south africa and hong kong suggests omicron is less likely to call severe illness than the delta variant. very few deaths have been linked to the new strain, but countries worldwide are still ramping up their vaccine and boost campaigns. attilio per tank a got more details from the w h chose regional director for europe. how much more do we know about our micron at this point? we know

the u. s. president also says that america is on track to finish its mission. enough can a stand by the end of this month, the top us diplomatic way, but just say the different options are currently being discussed. the tall about have made clear that they have a strong interest in having a functioning airport. we and the rest of the intricate national community certainly have a strong interest in that. primarily for the purpose of making sure that anyone who wants to leave can leave pass the the 31st. and again, with regard to our own potential presence going forward after the 31st. we're looking at a number of options. let me remind you that the deadline for the american withdrawal is the 31st of august. i can very my message again to the americans to evacuate all its allies by this time because they have the capability, they have plains, they have the airport, they must evacuate all the troops, and those people who are linked to foreigners. despite the patrol being well under way, prominent

i thought that the u. s. side. oh, what are, what put its priorities in a different way and that ever since the june meeting or some more saba and pragmatic approach or what, what, what will be on the agenda? i know u. s. military personnel involved in august botched drones strike in afghanistan were face any kind of punishment. 10 civilians were killed in the attack. most of them were children, but we got reaction from a grieving relative to this announcement that was made by the pentagon on monday. do not anticipate there being issues of personal accountability to be had with respect to the august 29th here strength lock, the key operation. the news came as a shock is humiliating for us to hear that no one will be prosecuted. they should have kept their word. we hope that the people who ordered and carried out this attack would face justice. the americans claim that they can spot the need on the ground from their satellites. so how could they not see the innocent family they were about to kill? they found no conn

but the u. s. federal reserve is still hesitant to take serious action to curve the spike, such as raising interest rates. economist peter earl says that higher inflation drives people to take on debt. there is a view that low low level inflation is, is good to be economy. i'm not sure i subscribed that, but certainly the kind of inflation we're seeing now is very pernicious and it breaks down as many aspects of the economy in many ways the pandemic, or rather the central begging response of the panoramic is the main factor. that's great in place right now. last year, the federal reserve increased the years money sharp supply by between 30 and 40 percent, and the root cause inflation is lots of money. jason, as they were fewer goods and services. so that's the main one that is going to try to lift interest rates due to tamp down of this question, but they can't do they stop to open market bond purchase? as nate said, they won't stop back until april or may of next year. so give me a while, was in p

but the u. s. federal reserve is still hesitant to take the big step, the serious action of curbing the spike, like raising interest rates. because that leads to its own problems, i supposed to call him peter ro, who told me that higher inflation drives people to take home more debt. there's a view that low level inflation is, is good for the economy. i'm not sure i subscribe to that, but certainly the kind of place we're seeing now is a very pernicious that makes life doubt as many aspects of the economy and may wage the pandemic, or rather, the central banking response of the pandemic is the main factor that's great in the place right now. last year, the federal reserve increase the years. one is our supply between 30 and 40 percent, and the root cause inflation is lots of money chasing the same are fewer goods and services. so that's the main one that is going to try to lift interest rates to tap down this in place, but they can't do they stop to open market bond purchase, as they've said, they

that's happening to the u. s. 2. and yet remember, these are big users, huge long term trends, and we're just taking a snapshot and time. the important thing is to get the big picture right? because most people don't get the big picture. and they, for their focused on their day to day stuff, you want to get the big picture right. you want, you want to be left behind and, you know, when these historic trends play out. so i think that's what's gonna happen. it's, yes, you're absolutely right. there that the nation state is power is going to have to be broken and it's going to be broken, i think through bankruptcy and losing wars which is clearly have a question about cycles. because i know you study the big picture as you talk about it. they've got the 4th turning, which is the generational cycles that as we've talked about a few times, then you have the 3 cities trap, which is just kind of one power giving way to another power, in this case, the u. s. giving way to china. so you've got, and china, of course, is emergi

the u. s. has frozen 9 and a half $1000000000.00 worth of acids belonging to the afghans central bank. so even those lucky few who do have savings can't take anything out. because washington says so little wonder the taliban is asking congress to give it all back. the freezing of us, it's an economic sanctions. can home health education of a civil services from which the general public benefit damage to these building blocks will serve as the worst memory ingrained enough gums at the hands of america . but following a 2 decades long pattern of pacing little value on afghan life, the u. s. is not backing down. now. u. s. officials made clear to the taliban for years that if they pursued a military takeover rather than a negotiated settlement with fellow afghans than critical non humanitarian aid provided by the international community, in economy enormously dependent on aid, including for basic services, would all but cease that is what occurred so washington wants to see reform before handing o

this happened to watch kaiser report ah, the the moscow negotiations between the u. s. s r u. okay, and france had stalled because at the same time london hosted secret anglo german negotiations in exchange for the british empire integrity. the british greenland german march to the east. despite the absence of agreement, was given to understand that he was free to act in the east and shouldn't worry about the west when we speak of new territory and europe today. and we must principally think of russia, the colossal empire in the east is right. the dissolution cut off hitler. my income for hitler makes clear, and mine come in 1925. that the real goal is to take over ukraine and going to the east against the soviet union. that was always real call. and your opinions understood that in some ways in poland, 2 was preparing to invade the u. s. s. we enhance le ah, the dismemberment of russia lies of the heart of the polish policy in the 8th. the main goal is to weaken and defeat russia. from our thought by the polish army, general staff intelligence branch. but angela had other pla
