Good morning, I'm Nathan Hagar 17 00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:04,959 Speaker 1: and I'm Cameron Moscow. Here are the stories we're following today. 18 00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:07,920 Speaker 1: We begin with the war in Ukraine. It has been 19 00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:11,520 Speaker 1: one year since Russia began its assault and march toward Kiev. 20 00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:15,240 Speaker 1: One year later, the capital is still standing despite massive 21 00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:19,800 Speaker 1: attacks on its people and infrastructure. Bloomberg Radio has team coverage, 22 00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:23,120 Speaker 1: beginning with Bloomberg's Oliver Krook in Kiev. It was a 23 00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:26,560 Speaker 1: shock for many that Kiev is still standing today. You 24 00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:29,480 Speaker 1: take the train over from Warsaw into Kiev, as we 25 00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:31,760 Speaker 1: have just done, You cross through Buscha. That is the 26 00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:34,000 Speaker 1: last thing you do before you enter Kiev. It is 27 00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:36,560 Speaker 1: right on the outscars. You realize how close the Russian 28 00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:39,520 Speaker 1: military was to the seat of government here in Ukraine. 29 00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:42,280 Speaker 1: But a year later it still stands, the Lenski still presidents, 30 00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:44,959 Speaker 1: still fighting, and the cost has been immense. Hundreds of 31 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:47,800 Speaker 1: thousands of wounded and killed on both sides, eight million 32 00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:50,559 Speaker 1: people displaced. You see on the train mostly women coming 33 00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:53,080 Speaker 1: back to Ukraine because the men are not allowed to leave. 34 00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:56,040 Speaker 1: So a year into this you have the Ukrainians defined. 35 00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:58,760 Speaker 1: Everyone you speak to here, one thing is very clear. 36 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:03,120 Speaker 1: There is absolutely no backing down. Bloomberg's Oliver Crook reporting 37 00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:05,480 Speaker 1: from Kiev. Stay with us for more from Oliver. In 38 00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:08,800 Speaker 1: just a few minutes. Meantime, Nathan Schina is going in 39 00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:11,680 Speaker 1: on the war. Beijing is published a twelve point proposal 40 00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:14,720 Speaker 1: for ending the conflict, and Bloomberg Daybreak Asia anchor Brian 41 00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:17,640 Speaker 1: Curtis as more from Hong Kong. The plan calls for 42 00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:23,320 Speaker 1: ending hostilities, protecting nuclear plants, resuming peace talks, and eliminating sanctions. 43 00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:26,240 Speaker 1: It's an effort by China to portray itself as a 44 00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:30,120 Speaker 1: neutral party. Bloomberg reporting suggests the plan appears to have 45 00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:33,320 Speaker 1: little chance of succeeding. That's because Ukraine has said it 46 00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:36,720 Speaker 1: would fight until Russia leaves its borders, and Moscow has 47 00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:40,600 Speaker 1: shown no signs of stopping its attacks in Kong. Bryan Curtis, 48 00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:43,000 Speaker 1: Bloomberg Daybreak, Thank you, Brian. Back here in the US, 49 00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:46,560 Speaker 1: the White House has just announced more sweeping sanctions against 50 00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:50,920 Speaker 1: parts of Russia's economy, including its banking, defense, and tech industries. 51 00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:53,720 Speaker 1: Amy Morris has more from our Bloomberg ninety nine one 52 00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:56,880 Speaker 1: newsroom in Washington. The White House says the sanctions will 53 00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:59,280 Speaker 1: also hit actors in other countries that could be trying 54 00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:03,320 Speaker 1: to help Russia, including Chinese companies accused of evading sanctions 55 00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:06,520 Speaker 1: on Russia. Lighthouse Press Secretary Karin Jean Pierre says there 56 00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:10,400 Speaker 1: are also concerns that China could be considering providing lethal 57 00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:12,720 Speaker 1: aid for Russia. You haven't seen them do it yet, 58 00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:14,800 Speaker 1: but they haven't taken it off the table. And Whitehouse 59 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:16,960 Speaker 1: says they also plan to announce a new economic and 60 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:20,839 Speaker 1: Security assistance package for Ukraine to aid defense efforts and 61 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:25,640 Speaker 1: provide basic government services like electricity and heat. In Washington, 62 00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:27,960 Speaker 1: I made me more as Bloomberg daybreak her right amy, 63 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:29,840 Speaker 1: thank you a while turning away from the war for 64 00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:33,160 Speaker 1: a moment. Now. A couple of Treasury secretaries are speaking 65 00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 1: out about the chance of a US recession and remarks 66 00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:38,680 Speaker 1: at the G twenty meeting in India. Secretary Janet Yellen 67 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:41,560 Speaker 1: says a soft landing is still possible. She credits a 68 00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:44,800 Speaker 1: strong labor market. At the same time, former Treasury Secretary 69 00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:48,120 Speaker 1: Larry Summers is concerned about a drop off an economic activity. 70 00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:53,520 Speaker 1: I think the chances of a soft landing, which look 71 00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:57,080 Speaker 1: to be getting better a couple months ago, I think 72 00:03:57,200 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 1: are now receding. Larry Summers made the comments on Bloomberg's 73 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:05,360 Speaker 1: Wall Street Week with David Weston. Catch the program today 74 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:08,480 Speaker 1: at six pm Eastern on Bloomberg Radio and Television. Well, 75 00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:10,920 Speaker 1: we'll get a closely watched economic report for the Fed 76 00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:14,640 Speaker 1: later this morning, Karen. The Central banks preferred inflation gauge, 77 00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 1: the PC index, is expected to show an acceleration in prices. 78 00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:21,640 Speaker 1: We get a preview from Bloomberg's Michael McKee. A surprise 79 00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:25,039 Speaker 1: upward revision to the fourth quarter PC inflation figures put 80 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:28,280 Speaker 1: a scare into markets. Ana. Let's, however, say it's just 81 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:31,760 Speaker 1: the application of the same seasonal adjustment factors that boosted 82 00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:36,520 Speaker 1: CPI earlier this month. So expect a higher PC inflation reading, 83 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,920 Speaker 1: but don't necessarily make too much of it. In any case, 84 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,320 Speaker 1: the message will be the same. The Fed has more 85 00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:45,520 Speaker 1: work to do. Michael McKee, Bloomberg Daybreak. All right, Michael, 86 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:47,960 Speaker 1: thank you will. In corporate news today, Boeing is pausing 87 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:50,839 Speaker 1: deliveries of its seven eighty seven Dreamliner. That's due to 88 00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:54,640 Speaker 1: a documentation issue with part of its fuselage, and Bloomberg's 89 00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:58,039 Speaker 1: Churnley Pellet has the story. Boeing says production of the 90 00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:02,080 Speaker 1: seven eighty seven is continual while deliveries are halted.

Boeing said the issue is related 93 00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:13,599 Speaker 1: to a supplier analysis error. The FAA, meanwhile says it 94 00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:17,160 Speaker 1: is working with Boeing to determine any actions that might 95 00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:21,599 Speaker 1: be required for recently delivered airplanes in New York.

Upset about it with it tonight and 169 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:56,200 Speaker 1: then tom get get ready to going the game on Saturday. 170 00:09:56,360 --> 00:10:00,320 Speaker 1: Both the Tally Kraftsov and Jake decision not available last 171 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:04,400 Speaker 1: night due to what the team called roster management reasons, 172 00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:08,520 Speaker 1: fueling the speculation that another trade could be on the horizon. 173 00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:12,720 Speaker 1: The Rangers visit the Capitols tomorrow. Elsewhere, Nico Heischer scored 174 00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:14,920 Speaker 1: in the final minute to send the Devils into overtime 175 00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:18,040 Speaker 1: with the Kings, and halfway through the extra session, Dawson 176 00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:20,760 Speaker 1: Mercer scored his second goal of the game. New Jersey 177 00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:23,720 Speaker 1: picked up the wind. The Devil's host the Flyers tomorrow. 178 00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:26,280 Speaker 1: The Islanders were off last night.

This is Bloomberg Daybreak. 187 00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:03,559 Speaker 1: Good morning, I'm Nathan Hagar. The world marks one year 188 00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:06,680 Speaker 1: since Russia's invasion of Ukraine, a war that the Kremlin 189 00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:08,720 Speaker 1: may have hoped would end quickly, but it has turned 190 00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:11,240 Speaker 1: into a grinding battle of attrition with no clear end 191 00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:14,160 Speaker 1: in sight. Bloomberg News is covering the anniversary with a 192 00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:17,560 Speaker 1: team of reporters in Kiv, including Bloomberg's Oliver Kruk, who 193 00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:21,360 Speaker 1: joins me live now from the Ukrainian capital. And Oliver, 194 00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:24,760 Speaker 1: we're seeing this resolve from Ukraine that has played out 195 00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:27,480 Speaker 1: over the last year. In a tweet this morning from 196 00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:30,760 Speaker 1: the President of Ukraine, vladimir's Lensky, he writes, on February 197 00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:33,480 Speaker 1: twenty four, millions of us made a choice, not a 198 00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:36,480 Speaker 1: white flag, but the blue and yellow one, not fleeing 199 00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:40,600 Speaker 1: but facing, resisting and fighting. Does that reflect what you're 200 00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:44,440 Speaker 1: seeing this morning? Nathan absolutely I mean, you take the 201 00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:47,120 Speaker 1: train in here from Warsaw as we did, and you 202 00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:50,000 Speaker 1: crossed through the huge expense that is Ukraine, and just 203 00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:52,720 Speaker 1: before you enter a key of you've crossed the Rabuscha, 204 00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:55,280 Speaker 1: where of course there was that horrible massacre of civilians, 205 00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:57,720 Speaker 1: and then you realize a year on, we forget, I 206 00:11:57,760 --> 00:11:59,920 Speaker 1: think to a degree the early days of this war, 207 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:02,720 Speaker 1: or how close the Russian military was to the seat 208 00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:06,800 Speaker 1: of power here in Kiev. And that's that's how everyone 209 00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:10,280 Speaker 1: woke up one year ago at dawn explosions, you know, 210 00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:14,839 Speaker 1: sirens going off, planes overhead, fights for airports, and in 211 00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:18,040 Speaker 1: a year later, the shock to think that a war 212 00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:20,480 Speaker 1: in Europe and the shock that Kiev today still stands 213 00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:23,240 Speaker 1: and it does. Zelenski out this morning awarding medals. He 214 00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:26,000 Speaker 1: will speak later today and Ukraine continues to fight on 215 00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:28,439 Speaker 1: and anyone you speak to here there is a sort 216 00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:30,920 Speaker 1: of normality to life. But when you ask about any 217 00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:34,000 Speaker 1: possible resolution in the future, they all have the stand 218 00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:37,679 Speaker 1: exact line. There is absolutely no backing down. It's amazing 219 00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:40,600 Speaker 1: to see that, especially when we think about all the 220 00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:45,200 Speaker 1: infrastructure attacks that have happened in recent months, Russia really 221 00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:49,679 Speaker 1: going after the energy sector, just the things that people 222 00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:54,040 Speaker 1: need to live in that country and to continue that resolve. 223 00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:58,199 Speaker 1: It seems as though it's difficult to point whether that 224 00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:04,280 Speaker 1: can continue, see that resolve continuing to hold up. I 225 00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:06,319 Speaker 1: think it's a very big question. And as you mentioned 226 00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:07,840 Speaker 1: this sort of I mean, this has been referred to 227 00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:09,840 Speaker 1: as the energy war, and so I think that this 228 00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:12,200 Speaker 1: is a war that's actually waged on two fronts. So 229 00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:14,319 Speaker 1: you have the energy war on the ground. After some 230 00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:17,880 Speaker 1: military losses in Russia really change its focus to cutting 231 00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:21,760 Speaker 1: off electricity supply, its targeting for substations and transformers, then 232 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:25,240 Speaker 1: moving to power plants. And it's amazing how adaptive the 233 00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:27,480 Speaker 1: Ukrainians have been at being able to fix this, bring 234 00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:30,440 Speaker 1: power back, but also create defensive and shoot these rockets 235 00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:32,680 Speaker 1: out of the sky. And then the second war, which 236 00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:34,600 Speaker 1: is the war that the entire rest of the world 237 00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:36,480 Speaker 1: has been engaged with, is the war that's waged in 238 00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:39,840 Speaker 1: the markets and a total reordering of global energy system 239 00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:42,640 Speaker 1: a trillion dollars worth of costs of energy prices last 240 00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:45,800 Speaker 1: year according to Bloomberg's calculations, and really putting in doubt 241 00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:48,440 Speaker 1: energy supply for developed nations in Europe that is not 242 00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:51,400 Speaker 1: something that has happened, or at least decades you had 243 00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:54,440 Speaker 1: BASF in Germany cutting jobs. Today, all of this directly 244 00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:58,400 Speaker 1: related to the cost of doing business, increasing prices of energy, 245 00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:01,680 Speaker 1: but also access to gas. It raises the question is 246 00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:04,640 Speaker 1: well about whether Europe's support for Ukraine can continue at 247 00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:07,360 Speaker 1: the level that we've seen over the last twelve months. 248 00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:10,360 Speaker 1: If we continue to see this deterioration in energy markets, 249 00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:14,440 Speaker 1: particularly in Europe, what does that imply about Europe's support 250 00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:17,920 Speaker 1: for Ukraine going forward? And again, I think this is 251 00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:20,080 Speaker 1: another big question. So Ukraine is in it for the 252 00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:22,440 Speaker 1: long haul. Joe Biden showed up here in Kia for 253 00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:25,840 Speaker 1: a huge adrenaline shot of morale here in Ukraine. So 254 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:28,640 Speaker 1: Ukraine is committed, but it needs to be met half way. 255 00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:30,960 Speaker 1: It cannot go at it alone. So maybe two extra 256 00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:33,240 Speaker 1: billion dollars coming overnight from the USA, that's what we're 257 00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:35,480 Speaker 1: hearing reports that adds to twenty seven and a half 258 00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:38,800 Speaker 1: billion dollars worth of military aid. Biden and Kia is saying, 259 00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:40,840 Speaker 1: as long as the people will be here as long 260 00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:43,080 Speaker 1: as it takes. But will the American people be there 261 00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:45,320 Speaker 1: as long as it take? Will domestic support in the 262 00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:47,880 Speaker 1: United states in Europe pulled off, particularly in the face 263 00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:50,760 Speaker 1: of a world filled with distraction and other issues, whether 264 00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:54,800 Speaker 1: it recession, inflation concerns around the South China. See So 265 00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:57,160 Speaker 1: I think that Velenski is very conscious of the fact 266 00:14:57,160 --> 00:14:58,880 Speaker 1: that he requires a support. He has been in a 267 00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:01,520 Speaker 1: great cheerleader for the cause of Ukraine, speaking last week 268 00:15:01,520 --> 00:15:04,040 Speaker 1: in Munich at the Munich Security Conference. You'll speak again today, 269 00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:07,440 Speaker 1: Canny keep in front of mine where the country's survival 270 00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:09,840 Speaker 1: really depends on it. And we've just gotten word from 271 00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:13,560 Speaker 1: the White House this morning about yet more sanctions on Russia, 272 00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:16,400 Speaker 1: something like ninety entities that are going to be coming 273 00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:20,640 Speaker 1: under restrictions here. There's been such a huge sanctions regime 274 00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:24,440 Speaker 1: against Russia, but it doesn't seem as though it's deterred 275 00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:27,240 Speaker 1: the onslaught that we've seen over the last year. We've 276 00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:30,920 Speaker 1: got about thirty seconds left, yeah, I mean, we saw 277 00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:33,760 Speaker 1: Putin give his State of the Nation address earlier this week, 278 00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:36,520 Speaker 1: and this is an economy that's really gearing itself towards 279 00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:38,360 Speaker 1: totally being cut off from the rest of the world 280 00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:41,960 Speaker 1: and working totally within itself. Obviously, the fact that you know, 281 00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:44,520 Speaker 1: energy and fossil fuels have been cut off as offset 282 00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:47,920 Speaker 1: to a degree that the price went after the invasion. 283 00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:50,760 Speaker 1: So I think Ukraine and Russia are both locked in this. 284 00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:52,600 Speaker 1: You know, we're going to see more sanctions. I think 285 00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:54,000 Speaker 1: part of it is that the US is trying to 286 00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:56,840 Speaker 1: do is make sure that that sanction enforcement is effective. 287 00:15:57,320 --> 00:15:59,080 Speaker 1: And again we just see the lines crossing now the 288 00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:04,160 Speaker 1: two billion additional aid for Ukraine.
