Around call this out there live from the also coming up. A continent ablaze the race to control fires as the deadly heat wave makes its way across europe. And on the brink of collapse, italys government looks likely to full with 3 Coalition Partners refusing to back Prime Minister body of there are ah anger and siri long cut the parliaments decision to choose rodney, which are missing as president. He promises to crack down on trouble making rushes, foreign minister says moscows military goals in ukraine have widened the on the east and on beths region. Sir gala prop told state media that Russian Forces will also focus on sudden ukraines kersin as upper regia regions. Hes wanting moscows objectives, will expand still further if the west keeps supplying key with long range weapons of the some ali below that it should be, gosh, when there was a meeting in easton ball, there was one geography and our willingness to accept the ukrainian proposal was based on that geography for the geography at the end of march 2022. Now the geography is different. This is not only the eleanor and the d, n r. This is also the curse and region and the sample regio region, and a number of other territories. This process continues and continues consistently and persistently. The were says, high mobility, artillery rocket systems or high mars, have been effectively used by ukraine and washington and its allies of agreed its commit more rocket systems, ammunition and other military aid to ukraine. At a meeting on wednesday, us defense secretary lloyd austin said confirmation of russias expansion plans comes as no surprise. I am sure of that term, ukrainian leadership will be. I am pleased to hear a law of ross confirmation of the effectiveness of not only that system, but how theyre using that system farm. As you know, russians are currently in her cures on and are from asia. So a Russian Forces there earlier. Now, we are wonder who hes talking to Ukrainian Forces of damage and important bridge in the sudden cursing region that russia has been using to deliver supplies to which troops is the 2nd strike on the denise pro river bridge in 2 days, the temporary administration and the russia controlled regions has key views. Hi mars multiple Rocket Launchers. The bridge is one of only 2 that russia can use to supply or withdrawal forces from the area. Now, as we mentioned that the United States is promising more sophisticated weapons for ukraine. This on the day, the ukraines 1st lady became the 1st spouse of a foreign leader to address the u. S. Congress alena zalinski appealed to the u. S. To provide ukraine with air Defense Systems. Article high, no reports. Ha, she brought the faces of war and loss to the powerful in washington. Lisa. Bullshit. So what should they do . Dr. Lisa was only 4 years old. She is no longer with us. Here is the stroller, dorm, ukraines 1st lady. Only nissan sca had a simple message. The u. S. Can help more ukrainian survive by sending more air Defense Systems. Yes, it has protruded ship. We have nicole in the curricula received them weapons that would not be used to wage a war on somebody elses land. But to protect ones home and the right to wake up alive in that home. Im asking for air Defense Systems in order for our kids not to be killed and not to kill children in their strollers. In order for august not to destroy childrens roles and kill entire families, the u. S. Has promised to supply ukraine medium range air Defense Systems. But so far has only promised 2 of the National Advanced surface to air missile systems. Thats not nearly enough to cover a country. The size of ukraine at the pentagon, promised to send for more high mars Rocket Launcher systems that ukraine has used to target russian ammunition depots and command control centers. Deep behind the front lines that brings the total from the us to 16 and the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff played down rushes game so far. So for 90 days the russian advances have amounted to maybe 6 or 10 miles. Something in that range is not very much, is very intense, lot of violence. Tens of thousands of artillery rounds, or every 24 hour period, her lots of casualties on both sides. The Biden Administration is expected to announce the weapons itll be sent in ukraine on friday. The lunch guy had a chance to speak with President Joe Biden this week. Shell soon find out if her personal plea with enough to get her country the weapon. She said they desperately need haggle, have al jazeera on capitol hill, holiday mens and military experts and form advise if he has 900 face defense department. Hes currently a senior advisor, the atlanta counselor, and he joins his by skype from washington. D. C. Welcome to the show hall, and it might not be too little too late, but its certainly too late. Is that for all of this new weaponry to the u. S. A. Supply, its not too late, but at some stage it will be too late. I think that the Us Administration has got to send more of the right stuff more quickly to ukraine. There is no doubt in my mind that ukraine is winning, that tactical battle right now. But at the strategic battle, and russia has the numbers, even though its really over, extended it perhaps as close to a 150 or 200000 troops. It only has a total of 900000. 00 the entire military and probably less than 400000. 00 and Ground Forces in the state of readiness. I think of bulk their troops is not very good. But over time, rush as a country of a 140000000 people far larger and far more industrial powerful than the craniums are. And so, unless the west can continue, but increase the supply of vital weaponry in large enough numbers, im afraid that the russians have numerical superiority on their side. But are you worried about escalation . I mean, 2nd level is already said the if the u. S. Continues to supply high miles and other high weapon systems to the ukrainians that will be forced to actually expand their operations. And i would say to the russians, go ahead, youre getting badly beaten enough. And at some stage, i hope that the ukrainians are going to be able to strike into russia. It seems to me unfair that the russians are able to strike it will almost as the nazis did, and tara bombing during world war 2 against ukrainian civilians and cities, universities and hospitals, i would hope that at some stage, ukrainians can drop the courage bridge across the sea of lazar, which would cause huge problems for russian logistics and take out the rest of the black sea fleet in, quite frankly, i hope ukraine is able to launch some attacks directly into russia. War is never fair, but you have to be really quite sarcastic to believe and cynical that the russians can get away literally with bloody murder of ukrainians, but dont want any action against their homeland. At some stage that is going to change. But the point is, we need to get more of the right stuff more quickly to ukraine. The battle is going to be at least stabilized and there will be some chance of an outcome of some kind of negotiation, which is the only way that this war is going to end. I mean the hall and youre talking about the crating hitting russian targets. Thats not going to the wars it its going to help. Look, i dont think the russian people fully aware of whats happening, the casualties, the russian army is enduring, are huge. During world war 2, at the battle of jayla, when which the moraine stormed up mounts or a budget that took 6 weeks. 6000 marines were killed over the last 6 months. Ukrainians are claiming close to 40000. 00 russian dead. And even as 20000 dead. This is the battle of the somme and world war one. And the russians cannot continue those casualties. Plus theyre using up a huge amount of weaponry, their cruise missiles and advanced military systems. And theyre depleting their stock from stage. It is going to be in russias best interest for negotiation. Now the issue here and whatsapp, right . A survey law gra wiper off said, was that they want to increase in russians their abilities in the south to have a land bridge to you to crimea. Thats their objective, so they can see in the south, but theyre not going to be able to do it given the amount of forces they have. And so a stalemate is going to a wall. And the fundamental issue here is at some stage president zalinski of ukraine is going to have to accept, come some kind of go see ation, in which hes not going to get back all the territories that russia sees. Possibly some an east, but i dont see how crimea is going to go back to ukraine simply because the bulk of crime means, want to stay with russia. But it needs a negotiated ceasefire. Some kind of settlement, because the wars you point out could escalate. I dont think it will, but its also creating a massive food crisis in which hundreds of millions of people are facing Food Insecurity and starvation. And thats in nobodys best interest. Holland, you are a military expert, youre a fuller advisor to the United States. Defense department is the advice is the analysis that youve just given us, going to lead to what you call negotiation sci fi negotiations, but it sounds like escalation from where im set . No, no. I dont think its going to escalate even if the ukrainians were to escalate. In terms of striking russia, what are the russians going to do . Theyre not going to invade the nato. That would be suicidal. They dont have the troops to do it. I think we underestimate how many courses that russia has put into ukraine. And so i think a lot of what a lot of rock said is pure propaganda. Nonsense. And we should regard it as such. Obviously, we dont want to provoke something, and i think what we in the west in the United States should say the russians are committing acts of atrocities against the ukrainian civilians. And it seems to be unfair that ukraine were to strike back in retaliation, which they are obviously entitled that russia would escalate . No, i dont think russia can escalate, i think who realizes that this is not to his best interest. Right now, for example, hes trying to out like the United States in the west, his trip to iran was meant really to cement relations in iran. The russians are trying to make inroads, and saudi arabia and with the chinese are trying to make inroads elsewhere to like the United States. I think from the russian perspective, the russians realize that the majority of world populations, if you include south america, if you include africa and certainly asia, the disagree with what the west is doing and ukraine, just take a look at the Un Resolution to condemn russia. And the majority of populations represented by companies in the countries in the security council, either abstained or voted against it. So i think that feels that he has a strategic card to play, certainly with energy, but its not as interesting to escalate. Because right now the russians are holding on the barely because the ukrainians are giving far more than theyre getting in. At some stage the rushes are going to say enough is enough. But remind yourself that the russians do have the huge advantage simply because its a much larger country with a greater industrial base. And at some stage, ukrainians are going to run out of time, space and weaponry. So the fundamental issue, were, how do we sound sliding . How do we do that . That should be our major aim. Certainly on the part of the west, nato and the United States. All the norman, always interesting to get your thoughts. Thank you very much.

Zane basra, the old jazeera tubs of spain, us President Joe Biden is now its a 2300000000. 00 Investment Plan to help build infrastructure that can withstand extreme weather and natural disasters. This comes as heater loads have been issued in more than 20 states in the u. S. Affecting around a 3rd of the countrys population. My can repulse. The president s been taking the heat from fellow democrats who insist hes not doing an up to combat climate change. And they were disappointed with no announcement of a Climate Emergency or executive action. Only a repetition of the threat that hell take action if congress doesnt. This is an emergency, an emergency, and i will, i will look at it that way. I said last week, say it again loud and clear as president , ill use my executive power to combat climate, the climate crisis, to the apps, or congressional action. The problem in congress essentially lies in the senate, in particular, one of the president s own party, jo mansion whos pulled out of negotiations over climate legislation. Given the senate 5050 split. This means unless some republicans break a party ranks. Any legislation will simply not pass because of, you know, one senator in particular, joe mentioned who get more money from the oil and gas industry than virtually any other sen. By didnt. He is blocking bidens legislation in the senate, so that fight and cannot enact his climate agenda there. The site of the president s speech was carefully chosen. The Brighton Point paula station was labelled one of the full fi, 5 industrial polluters in the past. But the coal fired plant was decommissioned 5 years ago and its now set to become part of a massive, offshore wind power project that could generate a significant amount of green energy. And the president listed what he views as his administration successors, including the most recent. Today, we began the process to develop wind power in the gulf of mexico as well from the 1st time, a real opportunity power, millions of additional homes from when. But this will not be enough for the precedence. Critics who continue to call for stronger executive action. President biden has the power to declare a Climate Emergency which could assist his administration in limiting the activities of fossil fuel industries on federal lands. But this in turn, could lead to the administration being involved in long drawn our battles in the courts. The president has confirmed his administrations message, that executive action remains on the table. But while the delay in execution continues, theres a real danger that this could become another perceived biden failure that voters would note at the midterm polls.
