In San Francisco, 43 00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:27,400 Speaker 1: I'm at Baxter Bloomberg Daybreak. All right, and thank you well. 44 00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:29,919 Speaker 1: For the first time, the European Union has now targeted 45 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:33,520 Speaker 1: Russia's crucial energy revenues. We go live to London and 46 00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:36,400 Speaker 1: get the latest at Bloomberg's Max Ramsey, Good morning, Max, 47 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:39,400 Speaker 1: Morning to you, Karen and Nathan. Yes, the European Union 48 00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:42,960 Speaker 1: has banned co imports from Russia. As you say, this 49 00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:46,600 Speaker 1: is a significant step. It's the first move targeting energy 50 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:50,120 Speaker 1: revenue from the European Union the sanctions. The sanctions package 51 00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:54,119 Speaker 1: also includes a preventions on Russian trucks and ships from 52 00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:57,400 Speaker 1: entering the EU it Previously there were no sanctions on energy. 53 00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:01,280 Speaker 1: Germany hungry among those blocking this move given their reliance 54 00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:04,040 Speaker 1: on Russian fossil fuels. Now some members want to go 55 00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:07,160 Speaker 1: further and want more measures on Russian energy imports. And 56 00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:11,800 Speaker 1: oil in particular, Live in London, Max Ramsey, Bloomberg Daybreak. Okay, Max, thanks, 57 00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:14,600 Speaker 1: So many analysts think energy sanctions will put more pressure 58 00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:18,280 Speaker 1: on Vladimir Putin. Tigar Shamali is a former policy advisor 59 00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:21,680 Speaker 1: in the Treasury Department Sanctions Division. The language he understands 60 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:23,560 Speaker 1: the most is the threat of military force, and so 61 00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:26,200 Speaker 1: I don't want to equate the threat of sanctions to 62 00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:28,960 Speaker 1: the threat of military force when it comes to changing 63 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:33,000 Speaker 1: his behavior and compelling him to negotiate um. But it 64 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:37,520 Speaker 1: helps further the pressure and it helps most importantly limit 65 00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:41,520 Speaker 1: his ability to finance his violence machine. Former Treasury advisor 66 00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:44,000 Speaker 1: Hugar Shamali was a guest on Bloomberg Sound On. You 67 00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:46,600 Speaker 1: can catch the program weekdays at five pm Eastern on 68 00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:49,920 Speaker 1: Bloomberg Radio. Meantime, Nathan, the war in Ukraine is having 69 00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:52,520 Speaker 1: a major impact on the cost of food. Global food 70 00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 1: prices are searching at the fastest pace ever as the 71 00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:57,880 Speaker 1: war rates, havoc on supply chains and the Black Sea 72 00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 1: region that sent food prices to were record But the 73 00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:05,000 Speaker 1: United Nations index at World costs storing last month, and 74 00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:07,200 Speaker 1: we have more economic news this morning, caring as several 75 00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:10,240 Speaker 1: feed officials weigh in on policy. St. Louis President Jim 76 00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 1: Bullard says he favors raising interest rates sharply to counter 77 00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 1: the highest inflation in four decades. This Taylor rule calculation 78 00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:19,599 Speaker 1: is telling us that where we should be in a 79 00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:24,640 Speaker 1: minimal under minimal assumptions, very generous assumptions. It's saying you 80 00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:26,560 Speaker 1: should be a three and a half percent, where we 81 00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:30,440 Speaker 1: actually only one third of one percent, or thirty seven 82 00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:33,520 Speaker 1: and a half basis points. So you're too low by 83 00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 1: about three basis points. St. Louis Fed President Jim Bullard 84 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:40,000 Speaker 1: suggesting he backs the fifty basis point hike in May. However, 85 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 1: Atlanta's Raphael Bostick supports increases more in line with the 86 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:46,119 Speaker 1: path laid out by the FEDS projections or dot plot. 87 00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:49,280 Speaker 1: I think it's fully appropriate that we move our policy 88 00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:53,279 Speaker 1: UH closer to a neutral position, but I think we 89 00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:55,599 Speaker 1: need to do it in a measured way. Atlanta Fed 90 00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:58,200 Speaker 1: President Raphael Bostick is a voter this year on the 91 00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:02,360 Speaker 1: rate setting f o MC. Meantime, Nathan FED meetings could 92 00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:05,520 Speaker 1: see some new faces on the way. Senate Banking Chairman 93 00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:08,279 Speaker 1: Sheared Brown says he expects votes by the full Chamber 94 00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:11,640 Speaker 1: on President Biden's for FED board nominees later this month. 95 00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:14,720 Speaker 1: To get the details from Bloomberg's Charlie Pellett. He thinks 96 00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:16,919 Speaker 1: that will happen after the Senate's two week break. The 97 00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:20,120 Speaker 1: Ohio Democrats said he also hopes Biden will have nominated 98 00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:23,640 Speaker 1: a new vice chair of supervision by then. Brown said 99 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:26,760 Speaker 1: he expects Lisa Cook, a pick for FED governor or 100 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:30,279 Speaker 1: Lele brainer nominated as vice chair, to be the first 101 00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 1: to be confirmed. Republicans have lined up in opposition to Cook, 102 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:38,320 Speaker 1: but four Republicans back Brainerd in the Banking Committee in 103 00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:41,599 Speaker 1: New York.

Executives at eight major US based multinational corporations 109 00:05:57,520 --> 00:06:01,080 Speaker 1: interviewed Black Bloomberg said that forn't too much remains unknown 110 00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:04,480 Speaker 1: about the deal. Transit Secretary Yelling counting on their support, 111 00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:07,600 Speaker 1: which could be critical to help win passage in Congress. 112 00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:11,080 Speaker 1: Corporate leaders agree the groundbreaking global deal that Yelling secured 113 00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:14,640 Speaker 1: last year could deliver important benefits by helping to reduce 114 00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:17,680 Speaker 1: disputes and prevent trade wars, but they also called the 115 00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:20,880 Speaker 1: plan overly complex.

I'm Michael Barr, and this is Bloomberg. Nathan. Okay, Michael. Thanks. 269 00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:38,480 Speaker 1: It is six nineteen on Wall Street Live from the 270 00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:42,480 Speaker 1: Bloomberg Interactive Broker Studios. This is Bloomberg Daybreak, and we're 271 00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:45,520 Speaker 1: joined now by Greg Valier, or, chief US policy strategist 272 00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:49,120 Speaker 1: at a GF Investments, as we continue following developments in 273 00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:52,160 Speaker 1: the war in Ukraine. Greg, good morning. Of course, we've 274 00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:56,640 Speaker 1: seen the apparent atrocities in northern Ukraine and now as 275 00:14:56,720 --> 00:15:01,240 Speaker 1: Russia moves east, Ukraine is accusing the England forces of 276 00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:04,920 Speaker 1: rocket attacks that have left maybe thirty civilians dead in 277 00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:09,480 Speaker 1: a railway station where civilians were trying to evacuate. The 278 00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:12,280 Speaker 1: Russia's denying this, but if it turns out to be 279 00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:14,760 Speaker 1: the case, what does this tell you about where this 280 00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:19,720 Speaker 1: war is going from here? Well, it's increasingly ugly obviously, Nathan, 281 00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:21,720 Speaker 1: and I think it will stay that way for a while. 282 00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:24,600 Speaker 1: But let me disagree. If I might this morning with 283 00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:28,720 Speaker 1: the conventional wisdom that don Bass and Eastern Ukraine will 284 00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:31,880 Speaker 1: be a stalemate or the Russians may prevail, I'm not 285 00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:34,720 Speaker 1: so sure about that. I think the big problem for 286 00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:38,600 Speaker 1: the Russian troops continues to be their supply lines that 287 00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:41,920 Speaker 1: failed them in the move towards Kievan and may fail 288 00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:47,480 Speaker 1: them again. Is I going to depend on further weapons 289 00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:51,360 Speaker 1: support from Europe and from the US for Ukraine to 290 00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:53,960 Speaker 1: continue to hold the line, because, as you say, we 291 00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:58,040 Speaker 1: have seen some pretty remarkable resistance by Ukrainian forces over 292 00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:01,160 Speaker 1: the last month or so. Yeah. Absolutely, And I do 293 00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:04,760 Speaker 1: think that this lull gives a chance not just for 294 00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:08,480 Speaker 1: the Russian troops to you know, remobilize, but it gives 295 00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:11,560 Speaker 1: the Ukrainians a chance to get a lot more very 296 00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:16,200 Speaker 1: sophisticated weapons from the US and Western Europe, a lot 297 00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:19,760 Speaker 1: of defensive some offensive. I think the Ukrainian troops will 298 00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:23,320 Speaker 1: be very well armed for this battle in the east. Now, 299 00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:27,840 Speaker 1: you mentioned the idea of Russia remobilizing here just to 300 00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:32,080 Speaker 1: take the other side of the coin. Could Russia remobilize 301 00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:35,520 Speaker 1: further to sort of organize better, because we have seen, 302 00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:37,720 Speaker 1: at least the way this war has gone so far, 303 00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:42,800 Speaker 1: a lot of evidence of disorganization by Russian forces. Could 304 00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:46,640 Speaker 1: things firm up, you would think so, Considering how a 305 00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:50,120 Speaker 1: nept the first month has gone for the Russian troops, 306 00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:53,920 Speaker 1: I still think that there's a morale problem. I still 307 00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:56,880 Speaker 1: think there's a supply problem. I mean, Russian troops didn't 308 00:16:56,920 --> 00:17:01,440 Speaker 1: have enough water, fuel, food as they got close to Kiev. 309 00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:05,359 Speaker 1: I'm assuming that has improved, but the ports where a 310 00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:08,399 Speaker 1: lot of these supplies come have been under attacked by 311 00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:12,280 Speaker 1: Ukrainian forces, so I'm not sure the supply lines are 312 00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:14,679 Speaker 1: going to be solid. I want to ask you a 313 00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:18,120 Speaker 1: little bit about the world response. We got that vote 314 00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:21,320 Speaker 1: in the U n. General Assembly yesterday removing Russia from 315 00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:27,359 Speaker 1: the Human Rights Council, and the Senate unanimously uh put 316 00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:30,520 Speaker 1: these trade restrictions on Russia. Do you see that having 317 00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:34,719 Speaker 1: any impact in terms of how Putin could play this 318 00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:37,600 Speaker 1: war out going further. Well, I could embarrass him, but 319 00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:40,920 Speaker 1: I think he's incapable of being embarrassed. I'm not sure 320 00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:43,439 Speaker 1: that's going to have a big impact. I still think 321 00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:46,240 Speaker 1: as we get well into this spring, and I'm sadly 322 00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:48,720 Speaker 1: afraid it's going to last for a few more months. 323 00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:51,119 Speaker 1: But as we get well into the spring, I do 324 00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:53,720 Speaker 1: think there'll be an increased focus on the exit ramp, 325 00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:57,399 Speaker 1: something that Putent can take and call you know, maybe 326 00:17:57,400 --> 00:17:59,880 Speaker 1: he will be lying, of course, but call of victory. 327 00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:03,840 Speaker 1: I do think there will be something involving a promise 328 00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:07,680 Speaker 1: by Ukraine not to join NATO. But I increasingly think 329 00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:11,760 Speaker 1: because of all of the massacres and atrocities, that the 330 00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:15,520 Speaker 1: Ukrainians are very unlikely to give up any territory. That's 331 00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:19,320 Speaker 1: an interesting point greg the idea of off ramps in 332 00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:22,639 Speaker 1: the next few months, because we've heard from the likes 333 00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:26,720 Speaker 1: of NATO Secretary General John Stoltenberg that this war could 334 00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:29,520 Speaker 1: go on not just for months, but maybe for years. 335 00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:35,280 Speaker 1: Where do you see potential off ramps for Russia. Well, again, 336 00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:38,639 Speaker 1: it's going to have to be after more carnage. But 337 00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:40,960 Speaker 1: I do think that Russia, if Russia can get a 338 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:46,399 Speaker 1: guarantee of Ukrainian neutrality, if maybe Russia will insist on 339 00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:49,000 Speaker 1: a little bit of land. But that's going to be 340 00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:51,520 Speaker 1: a sticking point. And you know, the other sticking point Nathan, 341 00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:55,000 Speaker 1: is the end of sanctions. You just can't turn them 342 00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:57,480 Speaker 1: on and off like a light switch. And I think 343 00:18:57,520 --> 00:19:02,080 Speaker 1: that Putin is going to have sang since persistent even 344 00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:05,240 Speaker 1: after the war ends. In our last thirty seconds here, 345 00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:07,520 Speaker 1: you've got to think as well that a big sticking 346 00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:10,520 Speaker 1: point is trust on the Ukrainian side, because Russia has 347 00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:15,320 Speaker 1: reneged so many times in h in its past discussions. Yeah, 348 00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:17,640 Speaker 1: so much of this is psychological, and I would say 349 00:19:17,680 --> 00:19:21,400 Speaker 1: that morale continues to be a really big point. Russian 350 00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:25,160 Speaker 1: troops are willing to die for their country. Uh, Ukrainian 351 00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:27,479 Speaker 1: troops will die for their country. I'm not sure your 352 00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:30,679 Speaker 1: Russian troops are willing to die for Vladimir Putin. And 353 00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:34,440 Speaker 1: I think the morale story is going to be increasingly crucial.

We 510 00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:11,160 Speaker 1: made it to Friday, Creedy and uh, what would you say? 511 00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:13,800 Speaker 1: Things are a little quiet right now, wouldn't you think? 512 00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:17,280 Speaker 1: A little quiet but still some movement underneath the hood 513 00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:19,840 Speaker 1: for lack of a better term. But you know, Nathan, 514 00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:21,760 Speaker 1: I love coming on here. You're talking about oil companies, 515 00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:24,440 Speaker 1: you know that. But this time we have a really 516 00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:26,000 Speaker 1: great story out from our oil team, and I think 517 00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:28,639 Speaker 1: this is requires just a little bit of extra emphasis 518 00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:30,240 Speaker 1: this morning. So you do have some of those oil 519 00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:32,679 Speaker 1: companies higher devon energy. For example, d v N as 520 00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:35,760 Speaker 1: your taker up one percent, Chevron is well up five 521 00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:37,800 Speaker 1: tenths of one percent, c v X as your taker. 522 00:28:37,840 --> 00:28:41,080 Speaker 1: They're occidental seeing a slight bit as well, up two 523 00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:44,320 Speaker 1: tenths of one percent. Oh x Y is your taker. There. Um, 524 00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:46,640 Speaker 1: this is coming at a time and I'm not sure 525 00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:48,320 Speaker 1: this is a direct relationship to the story, but it 526 00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:51,120 Speaker 1: is worth pointing out. We have our oil team reporting 527 00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:54,040 Speaker 1: the show producers are courting European buyers. When it comes 528 00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:55,920 Speaker 1: to that l n G market. We know that coming 529 00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:59,120 Speaker 1: off of the war in Ukraine, that dependence on Russia 530 00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:01,400 Speaker 1: when it comes to L n G is really trying 531 00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:04,200 Speaker 1: to be removed, especially by likes of Germany and France, 532 00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:05,920 Speaker 1: so we have to talk about where else do you 533 00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:09,400 Speaker 1: get that kind of supply, and Texas, Louisiana these are 534 00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:12,320 Speaker 1: key export kind of hubs for the L and G. 535 00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:14,160 Speaker 1: So you do start to see some of these companies 536 00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:18,240 Speaker 1: like e q T, like Devon, like Occidental actually in 537 00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:20,720 Speaker 1: talks with some of these European buyers. So this is 538 00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:22,320 Speaker 1: gonna be something you to really keep your eye on, 539 00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:24,720 Speaker 1: especially going into next week, when you do have some 540 00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:28,120 Speaker 1: of these companies actually moving to or actually traveling to 541 00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:31,480 Speaker 1: Europe to negotiate further how we can actually make those 542 00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:34,440 Speaker 1: exports happen. A lot of people targeting for the end 543 00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:36,600 Speaker 1: of the year to really build out that infrastructure and 544 00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:39,320 Speaker 1: start getting that supply to Europe, which is actually far 545 00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:42,560 Speaker 1: far more accelerated than it was previously. Yeah, So I 546 00:29:42,560 --> 00:29:44,920 Speaker 1: guess we're gonna be watching oil stocks for quite a 547 00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:48,000 Speaker 1: few more days, if not weeks, as the European Union 548 00:29:48,040 --> 00:29:51,360 Speaker 1: looks for ways to wean itself off Russian energy. We've 549 00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:54,240 Speaker 1: got some analyst moves to talk about as well. Cre Yeah, 550 00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:57,240 Speaker 1: also moving the market.

A A 552 00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:01,440 Speaker 1: is your taker down on one point six percent after 553 00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:05,880 Speaker 1: Credit Suite trimmed their recommendation to neutral, viewing m E 554 00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:10,560 Speaker 1: aluminum prices near peak levels. Also seeing some weight on 555 00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:12,880 Speaker 1: Robin Hood h o o d s your taker down 556 00:30:12,920 --> 00:30:15,800 Speaker 1: four percent after Goldman Sacks cuts it to a cell 557 00:30:15,960 --> 00:30:19,320 Speaker 1: from a neutral, thing that softening retail engagement levels and 558 00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:23,960 Speaker 1: profitability concerns will likely limit any outperformance. And lastly, Nathan 559 00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:27,040 Speaker 1: Crabb strikes c r w ds your ticker up actually 560 00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:29,800 Speaker 1: just shy four percent.

We've 672 00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:38,399 Speaker 1: obviously seen the reports this morning of apparent civilian casualties 673 00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:41,120 Speaker 1: at a railway station that Ukraine says was hit by 674 00:36:41,200 --> 00:36:44,960 Speaker 1: Russian rockets, and you know, there's still the factor of 675 00:36:45,160 --> 00:36:50,040 Speaker 1: Europe still dependent on Russian oil and gas. Yeah, and 676 00:36:50,480 --> 00:36:53,239 Speaker 1: to be clear, I mean these these photos that were 677 00:36:53,280 --> 00:36:56,000 Speaker 1: now seen from this train station that was being used 678 00:36:56,000 --> 00:36:59,880 Speaker 1: to evacuate civilians from the eastern region of Ukraine. Uh, 679 00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:04,000 Speaker 1: they're going there, their heartbreaking photos, they're devastating photos, and 680 00:37:04,040 --> 00:37:08,680 Speaker 1: we're joining a growing number of war crimes that Russia 681 00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:12,160 Speaker 1: is being seen as having committed in Ukraine. And that's 682 00:37:12,200 --> 00:37:18,279 Speaker 1: really uh energized um or motivated rather Western leaders in 683 00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:22,279 Speaker 1: the US and Europe to try to start moving on 684 00:37:22,480 --> 00:37:24,920 Speaker 1: additional sanctions and trying to figure out what needs to 685 00:37:24,920 --> 00:37:27,959 Speaker 1: be done. At this point, we are beginning to hear 686 00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:31,040 Speaker 1: from a number of foreign policy experts, like Ukraine for 687 00:37:31,200 --> 00:37:34,720 Speaker 1: Minister Dmitro coolba Uh saying that the war is beginning 688 00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:38,240 Speaker 1: to shift, that other countries must help Ukraine with larger, 689 00:37:38,480 --> 00:37:42,359 Speaker 1: heavier weapons, longer range missiles. These are different from the 690 00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:46,960 Speaker 1: current weapons that are being supplied to Ukraine from Western countries, um, 691 00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:49,560 Speaker 1: and they're kind of preparing for this next stage of 692 00:37:49,600 --> 00:37:52,520 Speaker 1: the war, which might be a little bit more like 693 00:37:52,640 --> 00:37:56,440 Speaker 1: World War two with large scale operations. Can something happen 694 00:37:56,520 --> 00:38:00,799 Speaker 1: in the short term, given the Congress is going on now, 695 00:38:01,480 --> 00:38:03,279 Speaker 1: I mean, it will be difficult to do. I mean, 696 00:38:03,360 --> 00:38:07,240 Speaker 1: certainly there can still be discussions. We do have groups 697 00:38:07,239 --> 00:38:09,840 Speaker 1: of lawmakers who are going to be going to Germany, 698 00:38:09,920 --> 00:38:13,600 Speaker 1: to Poland, to the Polish Ukrainian border, and so there's 699 00:38:13,600 --> 00:38:17,320 Speaker 1: still an interest in this topic. But unless something urgent 700 00:38:17,440 --> 00:38:20,200 Speaker 1: needs to happen, it's unlikely we're going to see lawmakers 701 00:38:20,200 --> 00:38:22,440 Speaker 1: back in Congress for the next two weeks. I mean 702 00:38:22,520 --> 00:38:24,880 Speaker 1: that said, of course, if something you know, urgent and 703 00:38:24,960 --> 00:38:28,040 Speaker 1: our our emergency does happen, where Congress is needed, where 704 00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:30,960 Speaker 1: the White House can't act on their own. We've certainly 705 00:38:31,040 --> 00:38:35,319 Speaker 1: seen lawmakers reassemble in Washington pretty quickly. One lawmaker who 706 00:38:35,320 --> 00:38:37,600 Speaker 1: apparently isn't going much of anywhere for the next few 707 00:38:37,680 --> 00:38:41,160 Speaker 1: days is House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. Just the latest in 708 00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:44,680 Speaker 1: a pretty a significant line of top officials that have 709 00:38:45,200 --> 00:38:48,640 Speaker 1: come down with COVID nineteen of the last few days. Emily, Yeah, 710 00:38:48,719 --> 00:38:52,800 Speaker 1: I mean, it's certainly the highest ranking official at this point, um, 711 00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:57,400 Speaker 1: you know, and sort of indicative of the overall spread 712 00:38:57,520 --> 00:39:00,800 Speaker 1: of COVID cases that we're really seeing go through Washington. 713 00:39:01,040 --> 00:39:02,879 Speaker 1: At this point, We've seen a number of of high 714 00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:05,920 Speaker 1: ranking officials get COVID. We know that Pelosi was in 715 00:39:06,040 --> 00:39:09,120 Speaker 1: close contact with President Biden this past week. Now the 716 00:39:09,120 --> 00:39:11,120 Speaker 1: White House is saying that the contact was not so 717 00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:13,800 Speaker 1: close and not so long that Biden needs to quarantine, 718 00:39:13,800 --> 00:39:17,200 Speaker 1: that he's still testing negative. But it's really showing that 719 00:39:17,320 --> 00:39:20,359 Speaker 1: COVID is continuing to be a threat, even though a 720 00:39:20,360 --> 00:39:23,279 Speaker 1: lot of people are now vaccinated and boosted. Is this 721 00:39:23,360 --> 00:39:27,560 Speaker 1: going to affect openings and Washington. I think they're gonna 722 00:39:27,560 --> 00:39:30,920 Speaker 1: be what starting spring tours at the White House this weekend, 723 00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:35,200 Speaker 1: and Congress is reopening for tourists that sort of thing. 724 00:39:36,120 --> 00:39:38,680 Speaker 1: Is that going to affect this We'll see. I mean, 725 00:39:38,719 --> 00:39:41,880 Speaker 1: at this point, Congress hasn't made any changes to its opening. 726 00:39:41,880 --> 00:39:44,799 Speaker 1: We actually saw additional steps that were taken this week 727 00:39:44,840 --> 00:39:47,040 Speaker 1: as far as what visitors have to do with their 728 00:39:47,080 --> 00:39:50,600 Speaker 1: protocol is when visiting the House offices. So we haven't 729 00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:53,120 Speaker 1: seen any shutterings yet. The message really from the White 730 00:39:53,160 --> 00:39:56,239 Speaker 1: House has been, you know, everyone is boosted, everyone is vaccinated. 731 00:39:56,680 --> 00:39:59,600 Speaker 1: Um that you know, people they they've got COVID, but 732 00:39:59,600 --> 00:40:02,359 Speaker 1: their few okay, they're expected to make a recovery. They're 733 00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:04,759 Speaker 1: not expected to wind up in the hospital. And you 734 00:40:04,880 --> 00:40:06,880 Speaker 1: really have seen the White House kind of pushed this 735 00:40:06,960 --> 00:40:10,560 Speaker 1: narrative of we are at this new phase here where 736 00:40:10,600 --> 00:40:12,680 Speaker 1: you know, we have the protections that we need out 737 00:40:12,719 --> 00:40:16,239 Speaker 1: there so if and when people get COVID, we are 738 00:40:16,320 --> 00:40:19,040 Speaker 1: able to make sure that that the worst case scenario 739 00:40:19,160 --> 00:40:22,600 Speaker 1: is not happening. And speaking of new phases, certainly going 740 00:40:22,640 --> 00:40:25,040 Speaker 1: to see one at the Supreme Court. With the first 741 00:40:25,120 --> 00:40:30,840 Speaker 1: black female justice now confirmed, Yes, Katanji Brown Jackson was confirmed. 742 00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:35,600 Speaker 1: All Democrats voted in support, as well as three Republicans senators. 743 00:40:35,640 --> 00:40:38,640 Speaker 1: The first black woman on the Supreme Court but but Nathan, 744 00:40:38,960 --> 00:40:41,640 Speaker 1: she's going to be a Judge Jackson rather than Justice 745 00:40:41,719 --> 00:40:45,760 Speaker 1: Jackson for a little while longer because Justice Stephen Byer, 746 00:40:45,840 --> 00:40:48,600 Speaker 1: who shall be replacing, he's going to be serving out 747 00:40:48,640 --> 00:40:50,799 Speaker 1: the remainder of the current term, So he's not going 748 00:40:50,840 --> 00:40:53,880 Speaker 1: to be stepping down until around the end of June 749 00:40:54,000 --> 00:40:56,520 Speaker 1: early July, at which point we are going to be 750 00:40:56,640 --> 00:41:00,320 Speaker 1: seeing Katanji Brown Jackson uh formally entered the Supreme Court. 751 00:41:00,680 --> 00:41:03,880 Speaker 1: So a bit of a long wait there for Judge Jackson. 752 00:41:03,960 --> 00:41:07,160 Speaker 1: But I understand that there is going to be something 753 00:41:07,160 --> 00:41:11,560 Speaker 1: of a victory lap at the White House this afternoon. Oh. Absolutely, 754 00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:14,640 Speaker 1: this is a historic moment. It was really underscored by 755 00:41:14,640 --> 00:41:17,399 Speaker 1: the fact that you had Kamala Harris be the one 756 00:41:17,480 --> 00:41:19,200 Speaker 1: to sort of hold the gavel and to call the 757 00:41:19,280 --> 00:41:22,520 Speaker 1: vote for her. Um this, you know, it's something that's big, 758 00:41:22,560 --> 00:41:25,920 Speaker 1: and it's something that Biden certainly wants to to tout 759 00:41:26,480 --> 00:41:29,000 Speaker 1: getting through his Supreme Court nominee, getting through with some 760 00:41:29,160 --> 00:41:32,640 Speaker 1: bipartisan support. And remember also when you talk a little 761 00:41:32,640 --> 00:41:35,120 Speaker 1: bit about who has supported Biden, it's been a lot 762 00:41:35,160 --> 00:41:37,880 Speaker 1: of black voters. It's been a lot of black female voters. 763 00:41:38,120 --> 00:41:40,520 Speaker 1: And this is something that the White House really wants 764 00:41:40,520 --> 00:41:42,560 Speaker 1: to make sure that they are touting as a win 765 00:41:43,200 --> 00:41:46,680 Speaker 1: for them and for a number of Democratic voters, and 766 00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:49,400 Speaker 1: a campaign promise kept for President Biden as well, and 767 00:41:49,440 --> 00:41:52,880 Speaker 1: I can promise as well, yes before he became president, 768 00:41:52,960 --> 00:41:55,439 Speaker 1: that he would nominate a black woman as his first 769 00:41:55,440 --> 00:41:58,640 Speaker 1: Supreme Court nominee.
