joe biden has called on a ha, my consulting a journalist who had been trying to get answers from the president over record inflation. prime ministerial, partying. elise in the u. k. launch on the investigation in to potential locked down breeches by boris johnson's government following a series of revelations provided musician digs and documents trip with from moscow to the world. this is our team, my names, you know neil than you're welcome to the program creation say so it will withdraw its forces from nature in the event of a conflict between russia and ukraine. the statement from the countries president came just hours after the u. s, but more than $8000.00 troops on high alert, over what a claim would be, a russian invasion of its neighbour. moscow has always denied any such plot. corporation president, zora milan, of ich making so many century comments on tuesday. he said, if there is a conflict between ukraine and russia, he would order the croatian troops to pull out of deployments that they're involved in with nato. now this was a statement that is not only unlikely to have gone down particularly well in nato headquarters. it's also unlikely to gone down particularly well in ukraine either because mr. milan, which also went on to say that the 2014 might done revolution in ukraine, was a coo. and he said the ukraine had absolutely no business in joining ne, so not only will we not send trips, but if there is an escalation, we will withdraw every last creation soldier. everything is happening on moscow's doorstep. so it is necessary for an arrangement to be found that will take into account russia, security interests. i worked in the european council when the democratically elected president unicode, which a scoundrel who sat on 3 chairs was overthrown in a cup. it was encouraged primarily by the you and the united states. it was a lot more diplomatic here in berlin on tuesday evening and money will micron was welcomed by chancellor all ab schoultz, the french president on the german chancellor essentially emphasizing the importance of dialogue when it comes to taking the heat out of tensions between russia and nato over ukraine. what we heard from the french president was saying that he would never give up on dialogue when it came to sorting out this particular problem. he did say that the costs would be high if there was any aggression boy from the german chancellor. what we heard was him repeat again, and again his message that there would be no sending of german weapons into ukraine after all boast. looking ahead to a big meeting of representatives of the norman defore in paris on wednesday. also talking about ukraine in europe on tuesday was the british prime minister boris johnson. he address parliament in westminster. he said that he would be speaking further with the russian president vladimir putin, that it was important to continue to seek a diplomatic solution to listen to the concerns of the russian side. he did say, though, that an invasion of ukraine would result, potentially in the worst bloodshed that had been seen in europe since world war 2. and could end incredibly badly for the russian side. there is a, a stand point that britain has taken and it won't be shaken from it. there is nothing new about large and powerful nations using the threat of brute force to terrify reasonable people into giving way to otherwise completely unacceptable demands or so far this week we have seen a stepping up of nato forces either in europe or prepared, potentially to be sent to europe 8 and a half 1000 us troops placed on high alert that could be sent over here. should the situation get any worse? that's according to the pentagon in washington. we've also are seeing the continuation of giant nate. so navy war games that are going on in the mediterranean, the u. s. s. s. harry truman, the american aircraft carrier at the center of those while the netherlands and denmark in spain, all promised that they would be sending military hardware to the east of nato at some time in the future. all of this, according to, to me, 3 bits. gov the kremlin spokesperson is being watched very closely by moscow. adobe dish turn that are such nato actions and increase nato activity. now, borders cannot be ignored by a military who are responsible for the security of our country. there is a constant process of drills, maneuvers and military build up, which has never stopped and will continue on the search for a diplomatic solution to what's going on in eastern europe concerning russia, ukraine and nato goes into while moves on to paris and those normandy, 4 talks it's the 1st time the talks in this format will have taken place in 2019 that involves representatives of the russian, ukrainian, german, and french governments keeping you up to date on those. here on our tea, of course, case some news just coming in, ukraine has summoned the croatian ambassador and protest the night spent from president milosevic, but he would not get involved in any potential nato conflict in the region. in addition, the christian president name has appeared on a notorious ukrainian ultra nationalist at website. it lists thousands of people branded enemies of ukraine, including journalists, and in the past, those on the site have been physically attacked. and we will keep you updated on all those developments. and throughout the program and indeed coming hours as well . veteran british m. p and rti who's george galloway believes there's a deep split between european natal members and how to deal with the ukraine crisis . there's a splintering all the european side of the nato alliance. germany has made it plain that it does not support the build up of war materiel in ukraine and does not want a confrontation with russia to turn into a war. they want a new european security architecture that is not led by the nose, or by a senile american president, that most people wouldn't send out to the shops for a low for bread, but may well lead his european allies into war with the hypersonic thermonuclear superpower called russia, so it's all beginning to break apart the law of unintended consequence that they don't hit russia. you know, i made this point you before they hit putins, russia, because putin has dragged russia up from the floor where it was lying, having its pockets picked and restored prestige and respect, self respect to russia. that's not the kind of russia they want. george galloway and while the world worries about how ukraine is being threatened from the outside, ukrainians themselves have got concerns closer to home. the small business owners among others have clashed with police in the center of one person was reportedly killed in the violence. protesters attempted to enter the country's parliament, the rather police resorted to tear gas to stop them. media reports claim m. p. 's have been evacuated from the building. demonstrators are demanding tax breaks. mandatory cash to be abolished so that a good tax doesn't have to be paid the now a hot mike moment has caused embarrassments for joe biden. now the media conference, the president was asked about the record inflation gripping the u. s. with the journalists getting an insult reply the greatest solution super. earlier my colleagues, neal harvey and morocco, the talk through was spark such a strong reaction from the us president. well, it was a nasty boost baby. i'm befitting of the president, but that is imagine he was, he was stressed right. he, he, he needed an outlet. was a silly movement. we will have moments like that. but the issue here is the subject . neither of that is inflation because there are, there are 2 explanations for what but, and said the 1st is that perhaps he was kidding. you know, he was angry. this is an outlet, again, again for his stress, for his ag and the, the 2nd option which is even scarier is that he actually believes that inflation is a great asset. i mean, you felt abroad, you felt that the inflation of this group, the world, not, not only live the past year, but of the past 2 years of the course of the pandemic. you walk into a shop, you look at the process. this is, this is everything fuel for our cars, clothes, for food, the prices and in supermarkets, i mean cars, computers, everything's gone up into the stratosphere. nobody's gaining from this. people are literally watching that their salaries, their wages, especially people have a fixed income or even worse, poor people, low income people. they are watching their salaries, their purchase in power evaporate. that say, as an example, say you were making $10000.00 just just supposed simplicity sake, $10000.00 a month, right? given this inflation in the united states and of 7 percent over the past year, you're effective so so, so what you can buy is worth $9300.00. this is in the, in the span of a year. so again, if, if someone gives you a raise, if you get a raise, well that's just, you know, getting back clue and back what you've already lost. and so it is incredibly strange reading, reading what some and the media wrote. and i'd like to note that this is, this is left wing media that inflation is somehow a good thing, why inflation can actually be good for every day americans in bad for rich people. why the inflation we're seeing now is a good thing why inflation might actually be good for the economy. the either enter that is. so someone telling me why you can afford to put food on your table is a good thing. it's, it doesn't come across well, well it's essentially the same thing and those headlines that some of them have apologized the authors. they have been ridiculed to such an extent that they had to, they had to go back on what they wrote because there is, there is no justifying this. with the refresher we are seeing in the united states, right, inflation that is an absolute record in 40 years and 40 years. i mean the, the, the numbers are absolutely tremendous how much. 1 people are using now you'll hear some say this is even worse for bill. they're billionaires. they have no problem of forwarding or buying whatever they want. sure, they made me. they might make in a year 5000000000 dollars instead, instead of $6000000000.00 at they, they are feeling old, seamless as a catastrophe. that the reason that this is all happening will part of the reason because there is the pandemic. but there is also the printing press on which the united states to, to a greater extent than the european central bank to a lesser extent, quintin trillions, trillions. they ran these for, for so long. they give our people checks, covered checks, and more people used these covered checks for a is a by basic necessities they, they went for electronics, they went from for luxury things. and what they, steve, is this caused inflation been a supplier. supply chains already disrupt that. there's less things for more people, which means higher prices and people are people have raised prices of people are willing to pay the my not. now we're, we've said all of this, the only way to combat all of this is to, is a for, for central bank we, we've all heard, you know, central banks, high rates or whatever. and we'll wait for what the hell that mean. what it me is that by way of increasing the interest on all loans, central banks cool off an economy by making sure there's less money to go around. the problem here is that the united states is now $29.00 trillion dollars in debt. $29.00 trillion dollars in debt and if they hike rates, they, if they hi, grades long term. so for example, for, for 56 years, the issue will be that they're going to make much more payments, many more payments on the existing debt. so for them it would be like, shooting themselves in the foot. so they're trying to balance the needs of the economy versus the, the outcry from the public them from the people. and try to squeeze by are either pleasing, ultimately, no one in one precedent biden's crude words after the press conference caused outreach online with people saying the insult was directed at anyone who's concerned about rising inflation levels. joe biden may think it's stupid to care about inflation, but a whole lot of americans disagree and they are going to vote this november working families are being crushed by this white house and their solution is to curse out anyone who questions them totally out of control biden's message to americans concerned about inflation. very stupid son of a think he's left himself open to more criticism about being a hypocrite about, you know, how we talked for, you know, during the, during the campaign and over the last year about how he was going to be more respectful with reporters. and then he acts this way, i think, frankly, what we saw was frustration, frustration over the fact that his policies have helped lead to this inflation that we're seeing this record inflation frustration over his rhetoric about shutting down the virus meeting up with the reality of the fact that the virus isn't getting shut down frustration over the fact that now he seems to be flirting with a direct conflict with russia. not only is the acting rattled, he's cheery picking data and trying to whitewash what's happening. americans are hurting. and i think an underrated element to all of this is the fact that his energy policy is also contributing to the rising prices of consumer good. you know, at his 1st day in office, you know, he went ahead and revoke the license for the keystone pipeline that drove up and then american energy costs the cost of energy for transportation for creating goods for running factories for everything. i mean, that has a direct correlation to, you know, the prices that americans pay in terms of, at the retail level. so you combine that with the inflation from all the printing of the money and all the paying them expanding. and we wind up in a very tough situation. can you tell the story about where across today u. k. police have launched a formal probe into parties held that the prime minister's residence in a parent violation of cobra locked on restrictions. not parallel to that. the results of an internal government inquiry are expected to be released this week at any time at piling further pressure on boris johnson ortiz shantia edwards dusty has been following development. well, what to say in westminster? it's been old kicked off earlier today when the metropolitan police chief was asked whether or not the police are covering up for those in power. and she had back announcing officially the launch of the investigation into the downing street party allegations. as a result, firstly of the information provided by the cabinet of his inquiry team. and secondly, my officers own assessment. i can confirm that the matt is now investigating a number of events that took place at downing street and whitehall in the last 2 years. in relation to potential breaches of covet 19 regulations. this is a way to think more for the metropolitan police as we've always had it. they don't normally investigate retrospectively, but many people say this really goes to show just how much evidence there must be in at least an element of criminality. but barnes johnson, the prime minister. he's actually welcomed this investigation and says it will help draw a line under all of these issues. and finally, the government can move on. but that's pretty bold words from a man, a prime minister, who many people including politicians think as time is up per much more or less embarrassing suckers. his colleagues, a v i to remove the mind from office government, a success. the prime minister's or 40 is in tatters. will he advise his boss to do the right thing in the national interest and resign the prime minister, not simply compounding his previous turbo state by continuing to deny culpability leading to on necessary and expensive police inquiry. when he could do the decent thing and resign. well this week, of course we were expecting the investigation led by stu, gray, and her findings to be published. but in light of all of this news today, many people thought it be kicked into the long grass. however, the metropolitan police had said it looks forward to the whole thing as being published. so now it really feels like it's just a matter of time. but for boys johnson, it's a very, very sketchy time. indeed, because downing street, they've said the prime minister did not believe he had ever broken the law. and of course, last week we had from bars johnson himself say that he actually thought a party was indeed a work event. and in regards to the latest birthday party allegations, many people are simply playing that down saying it was just a bit of cake during the working day. although at the time the rules were that you could only have 2 people mingling in duels together. where is this part? at least the allegations suggest around 30 people. we're mixing in doors together. so all eyes now are really on su, gray and her report. we could expect that investigations findings to come out even as early as tomorrow. it could be any minute. now, but as one tori and p allegedly had said today in response to one of this news, it feels like it's another nail in the coffin, which boris johnson is lying in already. just thing with his story, we heard from limbered, opec broadcaster and former british tempe. he thinks, even if forest johnson does managed to avoid formal charges, he can't continue as prime minister. i think it's inevitable, but he'll be strapped aside by this for a few weeks. i've been up to view that his position is simply untenable. now, 2 reasons. trustable. it's quite obvious. he's broken the regulations as far as the public's concerned in the court of public opinion, he's already being found guilty. secondly, this police investigation stalls the outcome of the investigation by su gray. but it's, it's legal investigation. the prime minister is being investigated for breaking the law as not a good look. i think it's $5050.00 whether there will be charges if he isn't in some way charged. a lot of people are going to insist their own lines that they paid for breaking these rules should be returned to the he has violated respect when it comes to matters of life and death across the country. and he looks like i have and in the united kingdom, when you cross a line, there's no way back. and i think he's got someone living on the us. food and drug administration will soon have to hand over documents. it's had wanted to sit on for 75 years. they relate to in sore throat is ation of the pfizer vaccine, which critics was carried out too hastily. the info will now be released thanks to a group of scientists taking the mater to court. we spoke to their lawyer who said transparency is vital. no, our firm represents individuals injured by the fees. we've been representing them for years. we do that for all the other vaccines. we don't do that for the 5 year seen or the during our day gape cove. it because you can't see them in any manner. we've got waning immunity there instead of eating unity got the same at the vaccine, doesn't prevent transmission. and there are obviously some harm to that scene cause as i do in public health officials don't deny. there are totally issues with the vaccine. and we need every independent scientist on board and looking at the data looking information, helping address those issues with the real problem here in my view and view, i think of many is that the very same house authorities that are telling you this is stated are the same federal health authorities that gave pfizer, missouri, and jane j complete immunity from any liability for injury caused by the product. and they gave them that immunity before the products were even authorized before they were even made in life since then and put on the market. that creates a moral hazard by decoupling the company profit motive from an interest and safety . and i think that does concern a lot of people and it shows the development comes as the world health organization recommended giving a reduced dosage of the fines or vaccine to children, age 5 to 11. the drug has already been approved for that age group in the us, canada, and the you. however, there are a number of jobs. so for the fast track approval of the shot, the judge you ordered the f. d, a to release the relevant info in public and john f. kennedy likewise recognized that a nation that is afraid to lead its people judged the truth. and falsehood in an open market is a nation that is afraid of its people. there may not be a more important issue of the food and drug administration than the pandemic. the phase of vaccine getting the american vaccinated, and making sure that the american public is assured that this was not rushed on behalf of the united states. even if it wasn't russ, there's no reason not to have transparency, but certainly in a situation where was rush, transparency is certainly important. it does beg the question, why does the f one away ally initially? why did it want to wait as long as it did? it claim it doesn't have enough resources, but it has over 18000 employees, a budget over $6500000000.00. reviewing a few $100000.00 pages for what a claim is. the most important product is ever reviewed and put out there presumably. and so we did couple the public health authorities own reputation from these products, right? such that they're just viewed as any other products. and then we can actually address individuals who are injured by these products and get them the treatment that they need and keeping attention in the us, the new nominee for director of the food and drug administration. there has years of experience in the pharmaceutical business that has shown me ties with the giants of big farmer, have raised eyebrows. some wonder if his interest line up with those of the american people. here's our chief kilowatt. after 10 lawns, joe biden has finally gotten around to nominating somebody to run the us food and drug administration. that is certainly an important post. during the pandemic. the nominee is robert caliph and he's faced some tough questions in washington. you currently own up to 8000000 goals and stock of major pharmaceutical companies. how can the american people feel comfortable? you're going to stand up to this powerful, special interest. bernie wasn't exaggerating. calif is a cardiologist turned multi millionaire, and he's been deputy commissioner at the f d. a since 2015 alarm bells have consistently been going off about how well connected he is. e mails revealed he'd been having cozy meetings with lobbyists of the very companies he's supposed to be regulating watchdogs, raised their concerns, expressed concerns regarding the recent emanation of dr. robert calif to lead the food and drug administration, and to urge the committee to reject his nomination. calif worked with lobbyists to put together a new bill that would fast track new drugs onto the market. cutting back on the procedures put in place to make sure the public is safe. the bill he helped right along with big pharma lobbyists, laid out a method for using real world evidence rather than double blind studies before putting out new drugs. however calif says he was doing it for the greater good way trials are currently done is so expensive that they said there's no return on investment for these kinds of trial. so i think i'm gonna throw it back at you and say, banding together and making this happen as a matter of practices critical. i would also, and you need to be vociferous when caliph was out of government in 2017, he was an unemployed for long. he worked for bitter roots, bio boring or ingle. i'm pharmaceuticals, anson tessa, all of them, big drug companies, caliphs, stock portfolio lists over 30 companies. he has over $100000.00 invested and he's got half a 1000000 and am going and bristol myers squibb and a quarter 1000000 invested in gilliard science. he's got 2000000 in psycho kinetics and a whopping 5000000 incense tasa. talk about a conflict of interest. his ethical reviews, however, say that he is in full compliance with the law, but it gets worse. i can't fathom why we would confirm someone whose actions failed to swiftly curb its height of the opioid epidemic and protect the public's health. especially someone who's already held the sta. ozzy's commissioner. the issue that came up on capitol hill was the opioid epidemic with pain killer medications being handed out a bit to freely turning millions of americans into addicts. as the fallout continued, doctor calif was pressed on the app da's decision not to update the labeling on opioid medications back in december, he said that the agency would continue to review the evidence coming in. that provoked more criticism. the evidence has been here for a long time. it's the evidence of thousands of people. hundreds of thousands of people dying in this country. now the big pharmaceutical companies have no real objection to their body. bobby, this is what a top lobbying firm said about him. congratulations to talk to robert kayla for being nominated as the next commissioner of the us food and drug administration. it's vital that we have a commissioner who understands the important role the sta, plays promoting public health and providing science based oversight of our nation's medicine supply. and some on capitol hill think that he is ideal for the position. i'm not sure you could write a resume of somebody more qualified to be considered for commission revere fda. now that was you asked senator richard bur, who has also got a relationship with big drug companies. now the f. d a is supposed to be monitoring the activities. a big pharmaceutical corp is holding their feet to the fire, making sure they do everything possible to protect the public. so for such a position, wouldn't it be ideal to have somebody who wasn't cosy with them and their lobbyists? just a thought taylor mauppin r t new york. we are back with max and stacy again in moments for the latest slice of kaiser report action station for the up. then i'll catch you again at the top 5 . ah, there may or may, we should all be mayor, may, we should all be angry because of what's going on right. can understand united states history and understand the role that slavery play is already very formal institution. by the time united states became a nation, it actually find the nation, the rise of capitalism clearly on the backs of flight in slaved efforts. if you had investigated lynchings any great extent. you can't believe that really in the country. and the country still stands in brick. i'm from the south. everybody. i know know what this figure to some extent, i would argue that we're still fighting the civil war. and the south is winning. blue is your media reflection of reality? in the world transformed.
