1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,639
Speaker 1: Right now, Gavin Gray out of the UK, and how

2
00:00:02,759 --> 00:00:08,520
Speaker 1: is Britain responding, the UK responding to news that Biden

3
00:00:08,560 --> 00:00:10,520
Speaker 1: has given the green light for the use of these

4
00:00:10,520 --> 00:00:13,119
Speaker 1: long range missiles and to Russia for Ukraine, and now

5
00:00:13,160 --> 00:00:15,520
Speaker 1: that Ukraine has used them.

6
00:00:15,960 --> 00:00:18,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, right, It's a bit of a sort of Cagy

7
00:00:18,200 --> 00:00:20,360
Speaker 2: game at the moment, because of course America not saying

8
00:00:20,360 --> 00:00:23,680
Speaker 2: a great deal about its involvement, leaving it to Ukraine

9
00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:27,400
Speaker 2: to talk about and indeed the UK sort of playing

10
00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:30,320
Speaker 2: a similar game. So Keir Starmer saying the quickest way

11
00:00:30,320 --> 00:00:32,879
Speaker 2: for this conflict to end is for Russia to stop.

12
00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:35,880
Speaker 2: He said, it's a thousand days of Russian aggression, a

13
00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:39,720
Speaker 2: thousand days of sacrifice by Ukraine. And he said, it's

14
00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:42,720
Speaker 2: clear that we must give Ukraine the support that's needed

15
00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:45,879
Speaker 2: for as long as it's needed, and the simplest way

16
00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:48,400
Speaker 2: to end this conflict is for Russia to stop the aggression.

17
00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:51,000
Speaker 2: He would not be drawn on the significance of that

18
00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:55,000
Speaker 2: decision by the Americans to let Ukraine use those missiles

19
00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:57,680
Speaker 2: for strikes into Russia. And you know, similar comments actually

20
00:00:57,680 --> 00:01:02,520
Speaker 2: made as well by the europe Union's top diplomat, Joseppe

21
00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:07,360
Speaker 2: Burrell in comments and response really to Russia changing its

22
00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:11,640
Speaker 2: changing its sort of constitution as it were around when

23
00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:15,679
Speaker 2: it is okay to fire a nuclear weapon, and Josette

24
00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:18,399
Speaker 2: Burrell sayings not the first time they threatened nuclear escalation.

25
00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:22,920
Speaker 2: It is completely irresponsible. Interesting that as you look as

26
00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:27,160
Speaker 2: well at the financial markets now across Europe, the dollar

27
00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:30,240
Speaker 2: has risen against major rivals like the pound and the

28
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:33,800
Speaker 2: euro gold cost jumped, and plenty of people as well

29
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:36,480
Speaker 2: looking at the markets which are very jittery over this,

30
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:40,880
Speaker 2: with the pound losing some value against the dollar this afternoon.

31
00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:44,199
Speaker 2: And suffice to say as well that earlier the foreign

32
00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:47,080
Speaker 2: ministers of the UK, Germany, France, Poland, Italy and Spain

33
00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:51,040
Speaker 2: all releasing a joint statement saying russia systematic attacks on

34
00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:55,920
Speaker 2: European security architecture are unprecedented in their variety, in scale

35
00:01:56,400 --> 00:02:00,320
Speaker 2: and creating a significant security risk. And by that they're

36
00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:05,000
Speaker 2: talking about recent cuts to communication cables between the European Union.

37
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:07,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, a lot going on there, and we just spoke

38
00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:10,600
Speaker 1: to Russian security expert who reckons, look, it is significant

39
00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:13,639
Speaker 1: that the Americans are involved here and it's their weaponry

40
00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:17,359
Speaker 1: that's going now long range into Russia. Five out of six.

41
00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 1: By the way the Russians managed to shoot down before

42
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:22,720
Speaker 1: they hit it is significant, but that Russia is not

43
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:25,399
Speaker 1: going to do very much in the way of a response.

44
00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:28,280
Speaker 1: Nothing too drastic or significant. That was his take anyway.
