historic highs as the country borrows more money to finance is the budget deficit. a mid 40 year record inflation highs ah, from moscow to the world. this is our t international. i'm rachel blevins. and these are the top stories this out where we begin with the latest in the russia. ukraine conflict where 90 ukrainian troops were killed and multiple military vehicles destroyed. and the cross mainly mon area . on wednesday, according to the russian defense ministry, russia withdrew its troops from the strategic city and the dannetta republic last week to stop its forces from being and circled by the ukrainian military. while the head of the don esque republic says the situation around, cross mealy mon is stabilizing. some online media report suggest russia is regaining some territories and i counter offensive. so no official confirmation has been made. our team igor should on off reports from the don, bask frontline. these rushes new defensive lines on the very edge of the fall, malagon screw public before you cranes carter offensive. this town than far off from combat was in the midst of revitalizing its peaceful, mundane life. now, all these efforts have been uprooted. herman ny, once again i rock line cow. this is where russian prove that you pre counter offensive on this front. they are trying to learn by their mistakes, and they are building up their fortifications quite hastily. but what is staggering to see here is that locals, they're going about their daily lives. there are just, well they go to supermarket. the life just goes on for them as if nothing has changed since the ukrainians captured more territory and well came closer to their homes. many ran to safety as ukraine's troops approached, but many stayed too, and often not out of desperation, but with a clear intention and principle at the foundation of this heart wrenching choice. later in the spring. as 3rd nath, i'm sure that the russian trips will not leave us. i want to believe in the past due until february, the 24th. i do not one war, and now i do not want to be with ukraine because it's kara right here. now. it's carry many people i leave in a panic, hubert, many had left. the neighbouring street is empty. you go to bed and you don't know if he'll wake up. how long will it be? after all, we are human beings and we all have one light. if you go over hot locals here are defying the threat of inevitable persecution and even torture of the pro russian population. if the town falls a mid shillings, they go about their daily routine. the towns, tiny mark had shrunk to a fraction of its former size. for one merchant here, a personal, devastating tragedy conclusively solved the stay all leave dilemma. we'll, we'll talk more to pick it up. if a good proposal, i'm still here to you. when you mention russia is busy amassing troops on this part of the front. the garrison is partly made up of volunteer veterans who have been repelling caves outnumbering forces for weeks until receiving an order to retreat. reinforcements are being drawn here to answer your for sure. we are trying to hold the territory and russian help is coming. every one support and fighting spirit is already rising. national supports other. our troops are advancing. the artillery is firing accurately. the infantry are at their posts in our support, the fighting spirit is excellent. every one is ready to fight for their land boiler, the rushes lost control over large swathes of land. over the past 30 days. now it's carrying out a total realignment of forces aiming to curb ukraine's advance stop it and restart the offensive. i'm a gosh darn of reporting from the don bass r c o pack plus members, including russia and saudi arabia have approved a major cut over on to 1000000 barrels per day and their crew output. it's the biggest reduction in over 2 years designed to proper prices on world market. saudi arabia's energy minister explain the reasoning behind the decision. we are not in the gambling business. we have to be careful. i have had a 35 years of experience in this field. i would like to challenge anybody who could come and say, we've been through a situation assimilated as it is today. and if we are not to be a tentative or ticket likely next. hm. either it and look at what is happening, did backpedaling, they're trying to catch a catch up. we cannot afford playing, catch you. so on the one hand we have the intentions of the e. u and the wes which are crystal clear, they want to punish russia with low oil prices by introducing a price cap. on the other hand, we have the group of all producers, cold opec plus, which is surely interested in higher prices for years. they have been achieving that through limiting their output. and guess who's running the show as the biggest players when it comes to opec plots, that's saudi arabia in russia. now i do want to point out that washington work hard to convince the oil rich gulf countries not to agree to an output cut. so the number one question right now is what comes 1st to for saudi arabia and it's opec plus allies, their own economic interests, or friendship with the us today, the answer was given. opec plus decided to go for the move that would drive the prices up. this is said to weaken the efforts by the west, anger the us apparently, and help rush up at the end of the day. now this is what perhaps led to the following exchange between a journalist and the saudi energy minister at that press conference in vienna. the gas price is widely seen in europe and much of the western world as having been manipulated by russia, which is cut supply. people will know, see, so the arabia and the core members of opec, an opec plus cooperating with russia one raised the oil prices? well, with the simplicity of a debit will be the view there. do you want to twist it to, to your and find it's your product of its short, right. it's with what we've been collaborating with opec plus countries ever since december 2016. so it is not an accident of, of mutual convenience if you could coordinate. this is not the only exchange between the saudi energy minister and the western media. the official refuse to answer questions from reuters accusing the agency of disrespecting saudi arabia and spreading inaccurate information about the country's policies. i like solo from reuters news agency. i had to christian specialist lennox. i have to talk to you about. sure you got it wrong. ok, i knew you hadn't got it wrong twice. you did. i did not do a proper job. you talked about that i should doing this and that. and actually the day that your story came out. no one from marsha talked to me nor i talked to anybody from russia. you repeated that again with another 10 of a story with priority to that. that how would you address your level of law congregating at all into $100.00 price? that is not to but if you have question dedicated to others, but not me, i'm not talking to write it until you'd expect. short, which is the energy minister. on behalf of gashodi government, the move comes the same day that you agree to a price cap on russian oil to start in december and a new round of sanctions. the move vans maritime transportation aggression. oil sold above the cap, sat by g 7 members, hungary who is prime minister, has repeatedly question the effectiveness of the use sanctions policy stressed earlier that this move doesn't cover pipeline oil. moscow has responded, stating it will not sell oil to those and willing to pay a fair market price soonest. news will prices are 37 percent higher than last year, in case the price kept mechanism is implemented. i would not rule out arise in prices since there might be a deficit. any country that will now be buying our resources, we'll have to make a decision on whether it will pay according to the market instruments, which means making purchases on a competitive basis. if the decision is made by company on its own, it risks not receiving the resources, since that would mean no profits for russia, and would likely lead to a decrease in the extraction and relocation of resources to shoot. washington is not impressed with the move, but by an administration slammed the opec plus oil production caught and is threatening to limit the blocks influence on global energy prices. the president is disappointed by the short sighted decision by opec bloss to cut production quote us, while the global economies dealing with the continued negative impact of foods invasion of ukraine at the time when maintaining a global supply of energy is of paramount importance. this decision will have the most negative impact on the lower and middle income countries that are already reeling from elevated energy prices. independent journalists, action returns. he says that any country is unwilling to play along with washington and brussels will have to play a balancing act. only a 8th of march, the u. e and saudi arabia reportedly refused to take jo biden's phone calls in the a just a few months later, the saudis refused to increase output during biden's visit to reared. then on the 4th of october, there was a campaign from the white house saying come on increase output. and then we see today's carter, i should say the u. e 160000000 barrels decrease 526000000. decreased by russia and their saudi arabia each i'm just going to tell you that the white house officials are being quoted on argue bill actually stenographer. the u. s. media has st. quotes disappointed by the short sighted decision, basically from saudi you, a rusher, other members of opec, and a kind of threat. some way to argue that by the administration, according to these anonymous source has been graded on u. s, i was, will consult congress, an additional 2040 to reduce opec's control over energy prices. it is a balancing game, but then again, the international, the strategic, sorry, noise, and actually american strategic petroleum reserve of the united states. before this decision, we're looking like they were back in the 1980s when arguably they could order the u . a in saudi arabia. more washington. good. and now i think in the past a few minutes, the u. s. is already saying they're going to have to release more from that strategic petroleum reserve. so it's a balancing act for developing world countries. but many roman j does even in the washing belt, we're having to admit is a change times. and of course, looking towards it, even though not reporting on it. we soccer chang, i cooperation, organization meeting, let alone what's going to be happening in brazil. later this month on the bab selection of lula and the expansion of bricks. the you as a master pakistan is in hot water over a tweet about visiting kashmir. i disputed territory between pakistan and neighboring india, the american embassy. and as long as that described the region with the abbreviation a, j. k, which is used by the local independent movement. for many years, the united states has been committed to strengthening educational opportunities for residents of assad, chombo and kashmir. u. s embassy in islamabad. once again acknowledges pakistan occupied kashmir as a j k. as i john o and kashmir, a mistake repeated more than once as a decision, and in this case signal to india. multiple statements using a j k by a serving ambassador, especially that of a friendly country is a serious issue. and definitely one that warrants a response or at the very least a call to clarify for assisting and calling it a j. k. india has repeatedly said p, okay, is indian territory and we oppose tpc because it violates our sovereignty. the u. s . is aware visit could have been quiet without publicity. is the ambassador ill briefed or is this to convey the u. s. no longer considers it disputed territory? surely if a sensitive issue needs to be dealt with sensitively, us don't speak english. mia has certainly have said indian, but it's also making a fuss, analyze whether you s z shaping. it's want to see when it comes to south asia, the sea ever since. the biden administration sacred. oh, that's been of the alignment of so it's between the relations of the 2 countries. focus on on, think us all this in the back of the scene. do you focus on, on the chief general thoughts was, was it to the pentagon and that tweet and the u. s. and saw you or somebody don't to focus on don't long with the 2 box on occupied because she and if that wasn't enough, the u. s. embassy thought hassan deleted out calling, eat e g, which is all john with your thoughts on these 2 independent terminology, which is only use 5 focused on on his with it the us on where to focus on. also this the u. s. government for to lighting, financial assistance, so the store, belgium headed page side in that particular region. now this got the battle or the fcc deal, which remember dr. sean, go with the fast minutes so, or in the land. the biden administration proposal providing $415000000.00 wall or fairs and military assistance to box sun. nevertheless, as far as the visit all the us on boy to be okay. i'm calling is a general question. you said it has upset india. they've taken up by shaw, while pakistan stance on the long standing territorial dispute remains the same thumb, kashmiri groups had been fighting against indian control of the territory calling for either independence or unification with as warm a bad. the conflict has claimed a thousands of lives since the late 19 eighties, according to human rights groups. since last year, the crisis i following of relations between the neighbors with the cease fire agreed to along the de facto border. we spoke to cornwall, feeble india's former foreign secretary, who said us officials don't realize the possible consequences of their statements. if it was a mistake, then they would have good activity, but i've seen that they are beating the formulation off without them or meet and greets in april. does he congresswoman read islam is she visited? i guess i guess me and many india protested the stand the box and said that this was the private and distance themselves from me and think that they hadn't now in 6 months and is a big change where the u. s. and so is really being focused on okay, by me and reading it as, as a nice week actually in bucharest, on the way of describing these things means that they're part of me being liberated by the indian part of me, the lender, indian occupation. there is a very sensitive kind, dumb that the american ambassador of the embassy did you not realizing the consequent survey in journalist and art contributor. nicola yo which has been banned from entering bosnia and herzegovina with authority's denying him access due to his pro russian views. they handed him a note claiming he poses a threat to security and public order in the country. they said informally when we were chatting and waiting for my signature on the document, they said they should similar cases in the past, especially in the last few weeks way where they had to think will allow you to several russian citizens. and 2 people that are in any way connected to russia were sho. busy russia states or should have any relationship with them in any manner. so basically, anyone connected russia in any manner is and spec to be banned and she will be not and that's not a big surprise due to their politics. in the last few years, the journalist was stopped by the bosnian border guards while traveling to his grandmother's. funeral officials reportedly told him that anyone connected to moscow will be refused entry nickel or you know, which is known for his coverage of the don bass conflict. previously. interviewing the head of the don escrow public, the journalist says that was the reason he was denied entry. first and foremost, political decision due to my latest work in covering stories which are not aligned with their agenda and their views on russia. russia, utah should have been in constant serbia and everything else and because we are right in speak and think differently than those who are in power inside and those full control bargaining because when effectively we are by and, and then she and we are serious there security which speaks more of that country than ourselves. the u. s. national debt has set a new world record of $31.00 trillion dollars. that's more than double the data. the 2nd biggest borrower, china, the us economy, is facing 40 year high inflation in response to the federal reserve has been increasing interest rates, which are expected to hit their highest level since 2007. the policy has also led to a 3rd in the u. s. dollars value sparking a warning from the un mid fears of a global recession with the economies of developing nations said to be especially vulnerable. the un says there's more than one way to lower inflation rate. market surveillance authorities could be mandated to intervene directly in exchange trading on an occasional basis by buying or selling derivatives. contracts with you to vote in price collapses or deflating price bubbles. despite the spiraling debt on the homefront, washington isn't shying away from coughing up even more cash and support for ukraine. the u. s. has approved a total of around $54000000000.00 and military economic and humanitarian aid to key as so far this year. on top of that, joe biden has approved a new bill with another 12000000000 bucks worth of help to you. crane geopolitical and market analysts, tom longo says there's a growing rift between the u. s. federal reserve and the white house. this is very clear that the fed and congress in the white house are at odds where the fed as it is at odds with what the congress wants to do and what the white house wants to do . and i think that that's a very important points. important i've been making for about a year and a half now since last june, when the fed began. what i would call south tightening by, by adjusting every capital re called the reverse refill rate, which when they raised the 5 basis points above the fed funds rate, the, the nominal benchmark rate lending rate that caused a tremendous drain of liquidity or dollar of what it around the world since then, the reverse repo facility had about $450000000000.00 parked in june 2021. today. it's hit a high a but back to point $45.00 trillion dollars last week. and i think there's been a little bit of movement out of that in the last couple of days, but, you know, that's it. but the, the numbers are staggering. that that's all what you would call base money for the global economy. and so. ready the fed has been actively draining the world of dollars from overseas knowing full well that it has to try and get inflation under control and, but at the same time, i also don't believe that it's, that's the, the fed only mission here. and that is actually very stealthily trying to put political pressure on washington to change the way it's been operating for the last, you know, since the 2008 by enterprise the connection between washington and big tech companies are coming under increasing scrutiny as a conservative legal group has sued the f b i for failing to disclose the agencies ties to networks like facebook and their censoring of some controversial content. archie's caleb mop. it delves into the story. well, the notion that big tack is very much colluding with the democratic party almost functioning as a wing of the democratic party has been around for quite some time. however, we now have this non profit going ahead the lawsuit against the api. i basically demanding that they make their records public disclose their relationship with the big tech companies. so the whole us public can know the truth about their relationship. the evidence is that during the 2020 presidential election campaign, the f. b, i conspired and combined with large corporations, including facebook, to sensor and suppressed the damning evidence of binding family corruption and influence peddling, found on hunter biden's laptop. this was done to help joe biden and the democrats when the 2020 election, now arrogantly disregarding the law, the f, b. i, a stonewalling america. first legal efforts to expose the f, b. i. e mails detailing the trade craft behind this collusive attack on our elections and identifying the persons inside and outside of government who were responsible for it. 2 months ago, mark zuckerberg, the ceo of facebook, admitted on a podcast that he was approached by the u. s. security agencies and asked basically to suppress the unter biden laptop story ab, because they believed it was possibly or likely to be what they called russian dis information. this was that bombshell admission from mark zuckerberg. and basically the background here is the f b i, i think basically came to us some, some folks on our team has. okay. just so you know, like you should be on high alert. there was the we, we saw that there was a lot of russian propaganda in 2016 election. we have it on notice that basically there's about to be some kind of dump of um, oh, that's similar to that. so just be vigilant. now it's also important to note that hunter biden's former business. so see it at this point has come forward and said the f b, i really showed no interest in all the evidence he provided showing 100 biden's wrongdoing than his crimes. and it seems like they just weren't interested in getting the fax on 100 by here's what the former business associate had to say. they were supposed to be working a follow up interview. and tim t. mo, in his last discussion with my legal counsel, was listen, we know tony's cooperating. we appreciate all the information you provided. we will follow up with you. we're definitely going to have them come in for a follow up interview or spend some more time on this. and i haven't heard from them since. now this seems to reinforce the notion that the f b, i just really had no interest in investigating the crimes of the biden family and the president's family members. now at this point, we're also seeing with a lawn mosque assuming leadership of twitter, some pretty blatant examples of how solidly twitter. ready in the democratic party camp, there are reports circulating about twitter employees crying out the song, should i stay? where should i go is being played in the twitter cafe. and it becomes apparent that a number of twitter employees are afraid that the company may be moving in a different direction. perhaps the algorithms are going to be a little bit different. perhaps different tweets are going to be circulating out of the way news feeds are going to be operating will be different and it won't be the standard liberal line. so when we look over all the facts here with this new law suits and other revelations that have happened, it becomes pretty clear that the stranglehold that the democratic party has over the tech giants and their control over information and discourse in the united states is becoming more and more obvious. furthermore, there is more and more outrage about it present at the ego forum, education and legal defense fund ad martin says american should be wary of the actions of the f. b. i with flipped over what was a, a warning from ronald reagan member ronriguez famously said, trust and verify in america right now when it comes to our intelligence community. when it comes to the f b i, it's distrust and verify. our starting point is that we've been misled. we've been misled and other example is on january 6th. there's a guy named ray apps, none of the f b, i will answer positive or negative. what ray ups was doing that day looks like he was breaking the law court in the f b i. they won't answer the question. we know our intelligence community has a problem. they don't tell the truth, and so we're not going to trust them. and we shouldn't trust them until they can prove until they can verify what they're saying. and the bigger problem very candidly, is that big tech is an aiding and abetting. but so as our big media and big media is happy to run these stories, you'll have john brennan, who has admitted he lied under oath to the u. s. senate, he will be on t v. and he'll be saying things about what's going on that are there's no reason to believe is she's true, he's a, he's an admitted liar in the past. so we've got a real problem right now in this country. and the good news is we have an election in just a 5 or 6 weeks. that will, i think, change the dynamic a lot. and that's all for now. we share tech out i t dot com for all of the latest breaking news and updates. we'll see you right back here at the top of the hour. ah o unit might have mr was or you give me you've got to be on for me. i'm pretty alone there. we use that in the fit. in the one you been going to probably call it double block that your billing is public. and mr. presley, which in law could go when will do me in the room. when presley away, mister bishop, rachel's got on back. it is really pissed because the more that would be written with letters, thoughts say the last abuser capture. well i see you missed. ah, i knew it didn't go. i was blown of course, but when you all are still in the notes, but we just in the was a little to do what you reminded me put on time when you not look for some reason. usually brittle shifts which annoyed me when you bought a car crash, you opened up and it will process per associate. one of them is about one of the think you were meant to convey. yeah. got the flood because yellow book it's been a while.
