We don't need a 49 00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:52,680 Speaker 1: cold or hot or hybrid war, but if we are 50 00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:55,720 Speaker 1: attacked by troops, if they try to take away our country, 51 00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:58,800 Speaker 1: our freedom of life, the lives of our children, we 52 00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:02,840 Speaker 1: will defend ourselves.

I decided to 58 00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:24,000 Speaker 1: conduct a special military operation. Its goal is the protection 59 00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:27,720 Speaker 1: of the people who for eight years suffered from abuse 60 00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 1: and genocide from the key of regime.

Despite the attack, 61 00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:34,480 Speaker 1: President Putin insists he does not plan to occupy Ukraine. 62 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:37,960 Speaker 1: Putin The speech lasted twenty eight minutes. Nathan he claimed 63 00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:40,200 Speaker 1: the U S and his allies crossed Russia as a 64 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 1: red allignes by expanding the NATO alliance. We get more 65 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 1: from Bloomberg News editor Tony Helpin. In Moscow, he made 66 00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:50,640 Speaker 1: a long speech in which he basically argued that the 67 00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:53,440 Speaker 1: West continued to present a treat to Russia and that 68 00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:59,000 Speaker 1: expansive NATO had crossed Russia's redline. UM in regard to 69 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:01,520 Speaker 1: Ukraine and others old of that he was launching this 70 00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:05,160 Speaker 1: military operation. Um initially spoke about the dom Basta, They 71 00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:10,520 Speaker 1: spoke so about demilitarizing the Ukraine as a whole. Bloomberg 72 00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:13,840 Speaker 1: Tony Halpin says. President Putin claims he is taking action 73 00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:17,880 Speaker 1: to protect civilians from Ukraine's military, though there's no evidence 74 00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:21,480 Speaker 1: they were under any threat. Ukraine's Foreign Minister Demitro Kuleba 75 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:23,480 Speaker 1: says Putin could have been deterred if they had been 76 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:26,120 Speaker 1: sanctioned sooner. Even before the attack, he was calling for 77 00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:29,000 Speaker 1: stronger penalties on Russia. It sends a strong message to 78 00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 1: put In, but it still doesn't stop him. So it 79 00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:33,559 Speaker 1: means we need more sanctions, We need the second wave 80 00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:37,360 Speaker 1: and then probably the third way until it gets clear 81 00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:41,480 Speaker 1: to him that he shouldn't make any step further. Ukrainian 82 00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:45,160 Speaker 1: Foreign Minister Demitro Kuleba spoke exclusively to Bloomberg Radio and Television. 83 00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:47,280 Speaker 1: Stay tuned for more of that conversation.

The Knicks put out a 184 00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:15,040 Speaker 1: surprising statement yesterday the season's over for Kemba Walker, not 185 00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:17,320 Speaker 1: due to injury. Although Walker has a knee problem that 186 00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:20,439 Speaker 1: has contributed, they have not playing like he did in Charlotte. 187 00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:22,200 Speaker 1: It was a fourth time. Also, this appears to be 188 00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:25,080 Speaker 1: at least somewhat of a mutual decision, and it ends 189 00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:27,760 Speaker 1: a strange season for the New York City native. Walker 190 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:30,920 Speaker 1: was the starting point guard and got completely taken out 191 00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 1: of the rotation, and then due to injuries and cover 192 00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:35,160 Speaker 1: he returned again as the starter. He actually had a 193 00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:37,880 Speaker 1: forty four point game, but now his season's over. The 194 00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:40,160 Speaker 1: Knicks returned to the All Star Break tomorrow in Miami, 195 00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:42,720 Speaker 1: and the Nets got some good news on their point guard. 196 00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:45,080 Speaker 1: Has just heard earlier Mayor Adams looking to phase out 197 00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:48,800 Speaker 1: the vaccine mandate that would allow the unvaccinated entire irby 198 00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:50,880 Speaker 1: to play home game for the first time this season 199 00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:54,480 Speaker 1: of Brooklyn coach Sneth nat I think he's working towards 200 00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:57,400 Speaker 1: being able to play in every game, so if the 201 00:10:57,440 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 1: mandate is lifting, the expectation would be that he could 202 00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:03,040 Speaker 1: playing all it is, so I think that's what he's 203 00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:05,320 Speaker 1: been waiting for and what he's excited about. And if 204 00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:08,280 Speaker 1: the opportunity arises, you know, the playing the goals from 205 00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:10,959 Speaker 1: the play.

This is Bloomberg Daybreak and Bloomberg's executive 273 00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:56,720 Speaker 1: editor for International Relations, Rosalind Matheson is back with US 274 00:14:56,760 --> 00:15:01,080 Speaker 1: as we continue monitoring the situation in Ukraine. Raz Good morning. 275 00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:03,120 Speaker 1: What's the latest as far as what we're hearing on 276 00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:07,920 Speaker 1: this Russian attack on Ukraine. Well, what we're saying has 277 00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:13,000 Speaker 1: this sustained assault that's coming from multiple directions on Ukraine, 278 00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:15,920 Speaker 1: not just into the eastern part of Ukraine, which is 279 00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:19,200 Speaker 1: where there are separatist areas, but also attacking from the 280 00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:21,360 Speaker 1: north and from the south, which is really the Black 281 00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:24,240 Speaker 1: Sea area. And that area is also important as a 282 00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:29,359 Speaker 1: key shipping lane in an area for trade, especially in commodities. 283 00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:33,160 Speaker 1: So it's a it's a collective movement around Ukraine. It's 284 00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:38,640 Speaker 1: involved aerial bombardment, missile attacks, and troops on the ground, 285 00:15:38,880 --> 00:15:42,920 Speaker 1: certainly going well beyond what the Russian president indicated in 286 00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:44,920 Speaker 1: the way hours that he would be going in to 287 00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:49,120 Speaker 1: assist separatists just in the eastern part of Ukraine. The 288 00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:51,920 Speaker 1: troops have rolled well passed that at this point. It's 289 00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:55,640 Speaker 1: just a full throated invasion. The Russian president has indicated 290 00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:58,080 Speaker 1: this point his goal is richly to replace the government 291 00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:02,840 Speaker 1: of the Ukrainian President Zlinsky entirely, and he says that 292 00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:06,840 Speaker 1: he wants to do first. His ultimate goal there really 293 00:16:07,120 --> 00:16:10,480 Speaker 1: is whether he then just wants to absorb Ukraine into 294 00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:13,080 Speaker 1: Russia in some fashion, or whether he would want to 295 00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:17,200 Speaker 1: try and install some other sort of administration in Ukraine. 296 00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:20,200 Speaker 1: That's pro Russia, But certainly at this point it's very 297 00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:23,240 Speaker 1: early days in that venture, and the invasion is only 298 00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:25,880 Speaker 1: a few hours in. Yeah, it's much a harsher rhetoric 299 00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:28,480 Speaker 1: than what we've heard in even just the last forty 300 00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:32,760 Speaker 1: eight hours from Russian President Putin. What sparked this new move? 301 00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:38,480 Speaker 1: What's the rationale for calling for removing the leadership of 302 00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:42,680 Speaker 1: Ukraine for d natification as he put it in his 303 00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:47,000 Speaker 1: address to the Russian people last night. Well, he's invoking 304 00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:49,160 Speaker 1: a lot of history here, but he also seems to 305 00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:52,000 Speaker 1: be putting it on NATO and saying that NATO's somehow 306 00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:56,160 Speaker 1: crossed Russia's red lines by expanding east. But of course 307 00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:59,240 Speaker 1: NATO describes itself as a defensive alliance and says that 308 00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:02,880 Speaker 1: it poses no threat to Russia, but certainly not. I 309 00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:06,280 Speaker 1: was sending more troops and equipment east in recent weeks, 310 00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:08,800 Speaker 1: and countries including the US and the UK were sending 311 00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:14,639 Speaker 1: defensive weaponry into Ukraine, and that, perhaps collectively for Putin, 312 00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:17,359 Speaker 1: has been an indication that he may as well go 313 00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:20,720 Speaker 1: into Ukraine properly at this point. Of course, He's always 314 00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:24,240 Speaker 1: seen Ukraine as part of Russia, and his build up 315 00:17:24,280 --> 00:17:26,760 Speaker 1: there on the border has been going for many months. 316 00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:29,359 Speaker 1: It's just clear the last few days he's taken the 317 00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:33,159 Speaker 1: calculation that for him, he may as well invade Ukraine 318 00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:35,119 Speaker 1: at this point and see if he's allowed to get 319 00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:38,159 Speaker 1: away with it by the international community. And so far 320 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:41,800 Speaker 1: we've heard condemnations from just about every quarter around the world, 321 00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:46,720 Speaker 1: particularly from NATO. Allies have heard from Turkey's president this morning. 322 00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:50,760 Speaker 1: All The one nation that doesn't seem to be condemning 323 00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:55,080 Speaker 1: this attack, at least at this point is China, and 324 00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:58,400 Speaker 1: certainly China is an outlier at this point in time, 325 00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:02,440 Speaker 1: they have refew is to condemn Russia for its actions, 326 00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:05,639 Speaker 1: even as the Foreign ministry in China is calling for 327 00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:09,200 Speaker 1: all parties to show restraints. You can see a very 328 00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:13,480 Speaker 1: careful attempt there by China, which extensively days neutral and 329 00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:16,640 Speaker 1: all these sorts of issues, to try and essentially stay 330 00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:18,800 Speaker 1: out of it. But of course China and Russia are 331 00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:22,800 Speaker 1: very close allies, not just strategically but also economically. There 332 00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:26,040 Speaker 1: are very important trade links between those countries, they tend 333 00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:29,200 Speaker 1: to support each other on the global stage by staying 334 00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:31,600 Speaker 1: out of each other's way most of the time, and 335 00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:34,800 Speaker 1: so you can see real effort here by Beijing to 336 00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:37,840 Speaker 1: do so in this case. Again, they were officially neutral 337 00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:41,679 Speaker 1: in two thousand and fourteen when Russia annexed Crimea. They 338 00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:44,280 Speaker 1: probably are going to take the same approach again.

John stash Out with Bloomberg Sports, 510 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:12,119 Speaker 1: thank you, John sixty seven on Wall Street Time to 511 00:28:12,160 --> 00:28:13,640 Speaker 1: take a look at stocks and some of the names 512 00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:15,720 Speaker 1: moving in the pre market with Bloomberg Radio and TV 513 00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:18,560 Speaker 1: Markets corresponded created Gupta, but of course on this morning 514 00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:21,720 Speaker 1: create it's a question of what isn't moving. Yeah, a 515 00:28:22,040 --> 00:28:24,480 Speaker 1: very very little green on the screen, and let's just 516 00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:26,640 Speaker 1: start with that because it's an easy one to get 517 00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:27,920 Speaker 1: out of the way. A lot of this has to 518 00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:30,119 Speaker 1: do with oil companies. We know that Brent crude has 519 00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:33,080 Speaker 1: crossed a hundred and five dollars of barrel. W t 520 00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:36,359 Speaker 1: I not far behind it crossed a hundred dollars of barrel. 521 00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:38,800 Speaker 1: This of course following that geo political risk, we now 522 00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:43,480 Speaker 1: know that Russia has officially invaded Ukraine. UM, so this 523 00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:45,600 Speaker 1: is kind of translating into the stock market. Here, your 524 00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:49,080 Speaker 1: top performer, your top stock moving higher in the SMP 525 00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:51,800 Speaker 1: five hundred is gonna be Marathon Oil. M r oh 526 00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:55,080 Speaker 1: is your taker, up six percent. A similar story when 527 00:28:55,120 --> 00:28:57,320 Speaker 1: it comes to e O G Resources up just shy 528 00:28:57,520 --> 00:29:00,320 Speaker 1: five percent. If you go further down the list, names 529 00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:03,320 Speaker 1: like Devon Energy, Apache both up four and a half percent. 530 00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:06,120 Speaker 1: These are all names that have one thing in common, Nathan, 531 00:29:06,240 --> 00:29:10,320 Speaker 1: that is exposure to American crude production. In the absence 532 00:29:10,720 --> 00:29:14,040 Speaker 1: of any Russian supply or that geopolitical risk or premium 533 00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:16,520 Speaker 1: that you're seeing in Brent right now, it immediately start 534 00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:18,280 Speaker 1: to look at w T I pricing and these are 535 00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:21,320 Speaker 1: the companies that actually influence some of that supply, so 536 00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:23,360 Speaker 1: naturally they're the ones that are getting the bid more 537 00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:27,680 Speaker 1: so than perhaps more global peers like x On, which 538 00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:30,840 Speaker 1: I should add is actually higher by three point to percent. 539 00:29:31,040 --> 00:29:33,200 Speaker 1: X O M is your taker. Chevron is similar story, 540 00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:35,760 Speaker 1: up over three percent. Cv X as your ticker. But 541 00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:39,120 Speaker 1: once again it's the American exposure that's setting them apart 542 00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:42,280 Speaker 1: from their more diversified piers. Now well apart from all 543 00:29:42,360 --> 00:29:45,800 Speaker 1: the geopolitics obviously front and center for investors this morning, 544 00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:49,320 Speaker 1: we do have some names moving on earnings.

Now it's hard to kind of 550 00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:03,920 Speaker 1: find the earning stories given that the market as a 551 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:06,520 Speaker 1: whole is really a dropping across the board, but eBay 552 00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:09,680 Speaker 1: in particular taking an extra hit when this comes after 553 00:30:09,760 --> 00:30:12,400 Speaker 1: they warned that their first quarter sales will miss estimate 554 00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:15,600 Speaker 1: as shoppers returned to pre pandemic spending habits. So once 555 00:30:15,640 --> 00:30:18,960 Speaker 1: again those online platforms that do so well during the 556 00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:22,280 Speaker 1: pandemic and during kind of lockdown kind of losing some 557 00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:24,600 Speaker 1: of their luster.

You know, 668 00:36:32,960 --> 00:36:37,640 Speaker 1: the President has the legal ability to do some US 669 00:36:37,880 --> 00:36:41,719 Speaker 1: unilateral sanctions, and there was the initial tronch targeting to 670 00:36:42,280 --> 00:36:46,320 Speaker 1: Russian banks, but really everybody who's followed this story seems 671 00:36:46,400 --> 00:36:51,680 Speaker 1: to be uh sort of questioning whether uh the swift 672 00:36:51,800 --> 00:36:54,239 Speaker 1: sanctions are going to come into play. That is not 673 00:36:54,440 --> 00:36:58,319 Speaker 1: something UH targeting the Swift financial system is not something 674 00:36:58,400 --> 00:37:01,600 Speaker 1: the US can do alone. Uh. So we we expect 675 00:37:01,680 --> 00:37:04,279 Speaker 1: to hear from the President exactly how much he is 676 00:37:04,400 --> 00:37:07,000 Speaker 1: going to do with what the US can do, and 677 00:37:07,080 --> 00:37:11,279 Speaker 1: how much of an international effort involving European allies will 678 00:37:11,360 --> 00:37:14,520 Speaker 1: will come about. It's also worth keeping in mind Congress 679 00:37:14,760 --> 00:37:17,640 Speaker 1: could push the President a little more on this if 680 00:37:17,760 --> 00:37:21,320 Speaker 1: they think he's going too slow. We saw a statement 681 00:37:21,480 --> 00:37:23,600 Speaker 1: just last night from Chris Coons, who really is an 682 00:37:23,640 --> 00:37:27,239 Speaker 1: ally of the president, saying Congress should act. Uh. The 683 00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:31,320 Speaker 1: debate in Congress over this kind of thing has lately 684 00:37:31,440 --> 00:37:34,320 Speaker 1: been whether to push the president to do more and 685 00:37:34,400 --> 00:37:37,359 Speaker 1: actually require sanctions that that may not have been put 686 00:37:37,440 --> 00:37:41,120 Speaker 1: into play. So we'll see exactly how aggressive President Biden 687 00:37:41,160 --> 00:37:44,040 Speaker 1: wants to be. Uh. And and at this point there 688 00:37:44,040 --> 00:37:46,920 Speaker 1: seems to be a lot of bipartisan support for what 689 00:37:47,120 --> 00:37:50,120 Speaker 1: he has essentially laid out. But we'll we'll see how 690 00:37:50,200 --> 00:37:53,600 Speaker 1: much debate follows that up, uh, in terms of whether 691 00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:56,200 Speaker 1: there are lawmakers who want to push him to do more. Yeah. 692 00:37:56,200 --> 00:37:59,880 Speaker 1: I guess the ongoing question, Jack, is how much sanction 693 00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:03,120 Speaker 1: and could deter putin from his path. At this point, 694 00:38:03,200 --> 00:38:05,560 Speaker 1: it doesn't look as those sanctions have worked. And now 695 00:38:05,600 --> 00:38:09,400 Speaker 1: we're hearing from sources inside the White House that there 696 00:38:09,480 --> 00:38:12,560 Speaker 1: was a lot of trepidation for this strategy even from 697 00:38:12,600 --> 00:38:14,680 Speaker 1: the get go, a lot of people close to the 698 00:38:14,760 --> 00:38:18,480 Speaker 1: president thinking that sanctions weren't going to work anyway. Yeah, 699 00:38:18,520 --> 00:38:21,080 Speaker 1: you really have to define what does it mean for 700 00:38:21,239 --> 00:38:26,120 Speaker 1: sanctions to work. Even in public addresses, President Biden has 701 00:38:26,280 --> 00:38:30,120 Speaker 1: has said before that he expected UH, that that Vladimir 702 00:38:30,200 --> 00:38:33,000 Speaker 1: Putin would likely go through with this, that there could 703 00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:37,799 Speaker 1: very well be an invasion, that these sanctions are more 704 00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:40,399 Speaker 1: or less a carrot and stick approach, and that there 705 00:38:40,480 --> 00:38:44,160 Speaker 1: should be a cost to an actual invasion of Ukraine. 706 00:38:44,960 --> 00:38:47,600 Speaker 1: But really, hearing what the President has said about this, 707 00:38:48,080 --> 00:38:53,120 Speaker 1: UH in particular, this has never been cast as an 708 00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:57,239 Speaker 1: idea but in which sanctions would prevent this kind of 709 00:38:57,920 --> 00:39:01,080 Speaker 1: action from Russia, but rather something that would impose a 710 00:39:01,239 --> 00:39:04,640 Speaker 1: cost to it. There doesn't seem to be an assumption 711 00:39:04,880 --> 00:39:09,239 Speaker 1: that Putin is an entirely rational player here. So there's 712 00:39:09,440 --> 00:39:11,840 Speaker 1: an insistence from the US and Europe that there should 713 00:39:11,840 --> 00:39:14,200 Speaker 1: be a cost to this kind of thing. But short 714 00:39:14,239 --> 00:39:16,600 Speaker 1: of any kind of military action, there's not a lot 715 00:39:16,640 --> 00:39:19,719 Speaker 1: of confidence that the US can take an action to 716 00:39:20,040 --> 00:39:23,319 Speaker 1: outright stop this from happening. Ye, and I guess there's 717 00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:25,920 Speaker 1: a question as well of how much cost will be 718 00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:30,319 Speaker 1: paid by the American people, because we could potentially see 719 00:39:30,520 --> 00:39:35,759 Speaker 1: spillover effect if sanctions go against Russia and affect the 720 00:39:35,800 --> 00:39:39,640 Speaker 1: global economy. Yeah, I mean, President Biden has warned that 721 00:39:40,320 --> 00:39:43,560 Speaker 1: it's this kind of sanctions that they're talking about, such 722 00:39:43,640 --> 00:39:48,080 Speaker 1: severe sanctions. Uh, don't just hurt Russia. You are seeing 723 00:39:48,160 --> 00:39:52,920 Speaker 1: that with the expectations of very significantly rising oil prices 724 00:39:53,040 --> 00:39:58,640 Speaker 1: for one, but limiting financial transactions is not necessarily a 725 00:39:58,719 --> 00:40:02,440 Speaker 1: pleasant thing to do, especially for European countries that have 726 00:40:03,000 --> 00:40:06,800 Speaker 1: a greater relationship with Russians. But yeah, I mean the 727 00:40:06,960 --> 00:40:11,560 Speaker 1: the warning has been put out there pretty clearly for weeks, 728 00:40:11,640 --> 00:40:14,880 Speaker 1: if not months, from the President himself that this is 729 00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:18,600 Speaker 1: not an ideal scenario and that part of the efforts 730 00:40:18,680 --> 00:40:22,280 Speaker 1: here have been getting European allies on board to accept 731 00:40:22,400 --> 00:40:24,200 Speaker 1: that this is not going to be a good thing 732 00:40:24,320 --> 00:40:27,439 Speaker 1: for anyone's economy. So only about a minute left here, Jack, 733 00:40:27,480 --> 00:40:29,640 Speaker 1: What are the options for the president to try to 734 00:40:29,719 --> 00:40:32,480 Speaker 1: ease the potential economic pain for Americans? We know that 735 00:40:32,520 --> 00:40:35,640 Speaker 1: there's been some talk of tapping into the strategic oil Reserve. 736 00:40:36,040 --> 00:40:38,760 Speaker 1: Is there more that the White House can do? There's 737 00:40:38,800 --> 00:40:40,640 Speaker 1: not a ton they can do. There has been talk 738 00:40:40,719 --> 00:40:45,279 Speaker 1: about tapping the strategic Strategic Petroleum Reserve. I would point 739 00:40:45,320 --> 00:40:48,000 Speaker 1: out that the path in the recent past, they have 740 00:40:48,640 --> 00:40:52,680 Speaker 1: gone forward with an SPR release that was about fifty 741 00:40:52,760 --> 00:40:57,160 Speaker 1: million barrels, and the White House credited that with the 742 00:40:57,920 --> 00:41:00,920 Speaker 1: sort of slight drop in and gap prices about ten 743 00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:03,759 Speaker 1: cents a gallon. It's not the kind of thing that 744 00:41:03,920 --> 00:41:06,680 Speaker 1: can reverse these effects. If there were something that the 745 00:41:06,719 --> 00:41:09,279 Speaker 1: President could do to flip a switch and and really 746 00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:12,000 Speaker 1: reduce the price of gasoline, he probably already would have 747 00:41:12,040 --> 00:41:14,200 Speaker 1: done it. Uh. That is an example of the kind 748 00:41:14,239 --> 00:41:16,400 Speaker 1: of thing that he can do to to take action 749 00:41:16,480 --> 00:41:18,680 Speaker 1: on this and try to mitigate the cost to the 750 00:41:18,760 --> 00:41:22,600 Speaker 1: American people. But really, as I mentioned, he he has 751 00:41:22,680 --> 00:41:26,080 Speaker 1: warned that these kinds of sanctions are not ideal. They're 752 00:41:26,160 --> 00:41:30,239 Speaker 1: they're they're not great for anybody. Jack Fitzpatrick, Bloomberg, Government 753 00:41:30,239 --> 00:41:33,920 Speaker 1: Congressional reporter. Thank you as always, Karen. All right, Nathan, 754 00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:36,239 Speaker 1: it is six day six on Wall Street. This is 755 00:41:36,320 --> 00:41:39,640 Speaker 1: Bloomberg day Break. In February is Black History Month, and 756 00:41:39,760 --> 00:41:42,719 Speaker 1: every day this month we are celebrating significant moments in 757 00:41:42,880 --> 00:41:46,279 Speaker 1: US black history. Now, if your installment for February four 758 00:41:46,440 --> 00:41:49,239 Speaker 1: here is Bloomberg's really too young. On this day in 759 00:41:49,280 --> 00:41:53,160 Speaker 1: Black history. In eighteen sixty four, Rebecca Lee Crumpler becomes 760 00:41:53,200 --> 00:41:55,800 Speaker 1: the first black woman to receive an m d degree. 761 00:41:56,160 --> 00:41:58,920 Speaker 1: To put that into perspective, in eighteen sixty there were 762 00:41:58,960 --> 00:42:01,799 Speaker 1: only three hundred women out of fifty four thousand, five 763 00:42:02,320 --> 00:42:05,239 Speaker 1: forty three physicians in the United States, none of them 764 00:42:05,400 --> 00:42:10,240 Speaker 1: were African American. Crumpler first worked as a nurse in Charlestown, Massachusetts, 765 00:42:10,280 --> 00:42:13,480 Speaker 1: before she was accepted into the New England Female Medical College. 766 00:42:13,880 --> 00:42:16,399 Speaker 1: It was during a time when male physicians claimed women 767 00:42:16,440 --> 00:42:19,480 Speaker 1: did not have the physical strength to practice medicine. In 768 00:42:19,600 --> 00:42:23,560 Speaker 1: eighteen eighty three, Crumpler released book of Medical Discourses, which 769 00:42:23,680 --> 00:42:26,080 Speaker 1: was one of the first medical books written by an 770 00:42:26,080 --> 00:42:30,319 Speaker 1: African American. That's today in Black history. I'm Nita Young 771 00:42:30,680 --> 00:42:34,560 Speaker 1: Bloomberg Radio. All right, Granita, thank you again.
