1
00:00:02,360 --> 00:00:05,880
Speaker 1: The Worldview with Adam Gilchrist catch up with news from

2
00:00:05,920 --> 00:00:08,879
Speaker 1: elsewhere in the world. Adam, A very good morning to you.

3
00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:13,640
Speaker 1: We saw cause Ukraine launching drones was Russia and there

4
00:00:13,640 --> 00:00:16,240
Speaker 1: wasn't there was a retaliation.

5
00:00:17,880 --> 00:00:20,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's been quite something. In a twenty four hour period,

6
00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:24,840
Speaker 2: Russia has launched nine hundred and forty eight drones at

7
00:00:25,040 --> 00:00:29,160
Speaker 2: Ukraine and specifically cities in western Ukraine. We know that

8
00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:33,599
Speaker 2: four hundred drones were fired yesterday afternoon, and while some

9
00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:36,040
Speaker 2: of them were shot down, it's going to overwhelm most

10
00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:39,480
Speaker 2: defense systems. Frankly and unusually as well. We're talking about

11
00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:42,519
Speaker 2: yesterday afternoon. It was there for a daytime attack and

12
00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:46,120
Speaker 2: that hasn't happened so often because I guess it's easier

13
00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:48,919
Speaker 2: to shoot them down, but given the numbers, a very

14
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:51,360
Speaker 2: expensive operation as well when you think about it. But

15
00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:54,720
Speaker 2: also this is after another heavy overnight attack the night before,

16
00:00:55,760 --> 00:00:57,920
Speaker 2: and we know that at least five people were killed.

17
00:00:57,920 --> 00:01:00,280
Speaker 2: The mayor of Leviv, one of the cities hit, said

18
00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:03,200
Speaker 2: twenty two people were injured and some in a bad way,

19
00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:05,800
Speaker 2: and he's also worn there will be more injuries. Three

20
00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:09,039
Speaker 2: other western Ukrainian cities were hit it's a thing about

21
00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:12,720
Speaker 2: the Ukraine Russia war. It's not exactly a forgotten war,

22
00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:15,360
Speaker 2: but does it feel like the rest of the world

23
00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:17,440
Speaker 2: sometimes just turns a bit of a blind eye and

24
00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:20,200
Speaker 2: a deaf hear to the conflict. Are we a bit

25
00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:23,440
Speaker 2: war weary? Dare I said it, a bit bored with

26
00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:25,440
Speaker 2: it and kind of want to go on with the

27
00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:30,080
Speaker 2: rest of global activity. I guess we shouldn't lose heart

28
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:32,280
Speaker 2: because it's an important battle.

29
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:36,000
Speaker 1: All right. Tell me about this military plane crash in Columbia,

30
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:38,640
Speaker 1: Adam and the warry here is.

31
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:41,440
Speaker 2: It's the second in the month, so a second time

32
00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:44,479
Speaker 2: that a C one thirty Hercules transport plane which all

33
00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:48,080
Speaker 2: the world's armies used to use, that it's crashed. One

34
00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:50,680
Speaker 2: went down in Bolivia four weeks ago. It was carrying

35
00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:54,160
Speaker 2: a load of money and the crew killed on board

36
00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:57,520
Speaker 2: number twenty four or from various members of security forces.

37
00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:02,880
Speaker 2: Now another Army Hercules crashed, this time in Colombia. Sixty

38
00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:06,760
Speaker 2: nine Army in Air Force personnel were killed, fifty seven injured,

39
00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:10,160
Speaker 2: some of them dragged from the burning wreckage by locals.

40
00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:12,839
Speaker 2: Some of the locals actually were faringly injured to hospitals

41
00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:15,720
Speaker 2: on the backs of their motorbikes, which can't be the

42
00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:17,560
Speaker 2: best way to go if you got a bad injury

43
00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:19,760
Speaker 2: from a plane crash. At one stage there were also

44
00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:22,680
Speaker 2: four soldiers missing and there was a huge search and

45
00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:26,959
Speaker 2: rescue operation now called off. Unfortunately the bodies were found,

46
00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:30,200
Speaker 2: and all this in a remote jungly part of Columbia

47
00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:33,360
Speaker 2: close to the border with Peru. There are known armed

48
00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:35,919
Speaker 2: gangs in this area, but it's not thought that an

49
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:40,519
Speaker 2: RPG or something shot down this particular hirk. But there's

50
00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:43,760
Speaker 2: an investigation obviously into what has happened. Could it just

51
00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:48,079
Speaker 2: be an old and outdated military plane. I'm sure most

52
00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:50,600
Speaker 2: of our militaries have some old and outdated stuff and

53
00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:52,920
Speaker 2: it can be problematic.

54
00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:56,040
Speaker 1: And Adam, how do you keep fuel costs low for

55
00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:59,320
Speaker 1: three hundred million drivers?

56
00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:04,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, three hundred million drivers in China as said to be, Yeah, absolutely,

57
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:08,720
Speaker 2: and they've already seen all sorts of petrol price hikes

58
00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:11,840
Speaker 2: and not forgetting diesel and gasoline and home fuel and

59
00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:15,799
Speaker 2: so forth. But China, being a big brother communist state,

60
00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:19,000
Speaker 2: is able to slightly take over this. Now you have

61
00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:22,560
Speaker 2: your safeguard platforms as well for fuel prices. We do too,

62
00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:25,040
Speaker 2: but in China, they just go, now, we're not going

63
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:28,120
Speaker 2: to do that. So they were set for an extra

64
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:30,680
Speaker 2: I didn't know oil was measured in tons, but anyway

65
00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:33,359
Speaker 2: it is. Sometimes they were set for an extra three

66
00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:36,520
Speaker 2: hundred and twenty dollars a ton. The Chinese government has

67
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:38,280
Speaker 2: weighed in and said, you know what, We're going to

68
00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:40,200
Speaker 2: make that one hundred and sixty dollars a ton, so

69
00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:43,960
Speaker 2: they will slightly absorb the higher cost of importing fuel.

70
00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:47,520
Speaker 2: China imports ninety odd percent of its fuel from the

71
00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:50,120
Speaker 2: Middle East, and rather a lot from Iran, so obviously

72
00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:53,080
Speaker 2: it's been impacted. So on the one hand, yeah, not

73
00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:56,440
Speaker 2: the price hikes that some were predicting in China, but

74
00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:59,640
Speaker 2: they've already had five increases. So this is the flip

75
00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:03,520
Speaker 2: side of Big Brother Communism. Five major oil and petrol

76
00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:06,720
Speaker 2: price hikes this year, so that you and I might

77
00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:09,040
Speaker 2: be feeling the pinch a little bit at the petrol pumps,

78
00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:11,360
Speaker 2: but we're not paying what China is, which is an

79
00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:15,840
Speaker 2: extra twenty five to thirty percent just in a three

80
00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:18,839
Speaker 2: week period. Yeah, you would feel that, wouldn't you.

81
00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:22,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, you and three hundred million of your closest friends.

82
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:24,760
Speaker 1: Adam Gilchrist, this morning's worldview
