the g20's mandate is strictly limited to economic and development issues, so it is important that a substantivee was spared from opportunistic attempts to enter the market. interaction with the participation of great powers, such regional associations as the commonwealth of independent states, collective security treaty organizations, the eurasian economic union, asia, the cooperation council of the arab states of the persian gulf, the league of arab states, the african union, selak, are of practical importance for the establishment of multipolarity, we see it as important the task of diverse connections between them, including connecting the potential un. the russian presidency of the council will devote one of its upcoming meetings to interaction between the un and eurasian regional organizations. dear colleagues, speaking on july 9 at the brix parliamentary forum in st. petersburg, vladimir putin said that the formation of a world order that reflects the real balance of power is a complex and in many ways even painful process. end of quote. we believe that discussions on this topic should be

g20 finance ministers meet later. on the agenda: a global tax on billionaires.for a criminalfraud charge. and we'll be marking national berry month and reflecting on britain's big berry boon. live from london this is business today. the british government has announced a partnership between great british energy and the crown estate to deliver billions of pounds worth of investment in renewable energies. great british energy is the product of a manifesto promise to bring forward a state—owned company to deliver secure and affordable clean energy. now there's to be a major collaboration with the crown estate which controls much of the inshore seabed around the uk and a major portfolio of land. the crown estate estimates this partnership will lead to 20 to 30 gigawatts of new offshore wind developments reaching seabed lease stage by 2030, enough power for the equivalent of almost 20 million homes.

we have a big role to play to bring difference entities together we created together with india as g20 chair and world bank, the global debt round table. what isle it? it is a place where traditional creditors, so-called -- [inaudible conversations]ca creditors new creditors china, india, saudi arabia, brazil, private sector creditors, and that are big part of the -- credit landscape, and other countries. they all sit together. what is the practical outcome of it? identifying concrete initials that is disagreement and building common approach to them, for example, disagreement on whatfo is the role of development banks, resolved. now we are on our way to address the issue of comparability of treatment. o private sector public sector, same treatment. so i -- these are the kinds of things that we can and do and we do do --- to bring countries on a common position so we can solve problems and head miracle in the future. >> great. okay let's -- see now. who would like so if you raise your hands and then we'll try to take three questions. so i think i saw that hand go up first. there was --

steve spoke to the chancellor on the sidelines of the g20 meeting of finance ministers and asked her about tax increases. >> we were very clear in the manifesto there have been no increases of income tax or vat or we would freeze cooperation tax at the current rate for the duration of the parliament. it was important to do that because working people have already seen big hikes in the tax the last few years especially with the freezing of tax thresholds. we made it our number one priority to grow the economy. i want to give businesses that certainty about the rate of which the profits will be taxed when they make profits. that's really important and unlike previous comments, we will be sticking to the pledges we made in the manifesto. tax policy is rightly a matter of budgets. it's not going to be a budget this week. this week, we are announcing the spending inheritance and the emergency measures to get to grip on those spending pressures. issues around taxation are rightly for the budget and taxing for working people to be lower. unlike the last government, i'll not make any announc

we created together with india as g20 chair and the world bank, the global sovereign debt roundtable. what is it? it is a place where traditional creditors, the so-called paris club creditors, new creditors, china, india, saudi arabia, brazil, private sector creditors and they are a big part of the credit landscape and other countries. they all sit together. what is the practical outcome of it? identifying concrete issues where there is disagreement and building common approach to them. for example, disagreement on what is the role of multilateral development banks. resolved. now we're on our way to address the issue of comparability of treatment. private sector, public sector, same treatment. these are the kinds of things that we can and we do, and we do do to bring countries on a common position, so we can solve problems and have the marrakesh miracle repeated in the future. >> great, okay. let's see now. can we just raise your hands and then we'll try and take maybe three questions? i think i saw that and go up first. there was a hand over their, and then there's a lady over here.

we made it to g20 about 25 years ago and we believe we should be in g720 years from now.is coming from various cycles. number one, we have huge domestic consumption. that is important because we are a country of 285 million people with young population. 60%. we are also a country of trade. right now, we have positive trade with most countries, including china. that is not only for raw resources like we have done in the past, but for value added products. for example, our nickel resources have been produced to become one of the largest producer of stainless steel in the world. now we are focusing on battery materials. that is one of the critical min minerals. in addition to that, indonesia would like to also go up the value chain in the renewable energy potentials. we have the potential in indonesia and that's a resource of invesinvestment. >> let me jump in here. a little bit of sound going on in the back ground. i want to talk about batteries. we saw elon musk visiting indonesia there year. your country wants to become the ev power house. the adoption is slowing someone.

a lot of discussion, including the g20 about taxing billionaires in the world. think it is important to walk on two legs. you need international cooperation and tax on billionaires, for sure. individual countries also need to do their own part of the work. one way, i think it should be done in the case of the taxes is if you made your wealth by using the public infrastructure of the country, say, france, by using the public transport or the education system -- you can never become rich on your own without using these collective resources, legal system, everything is central to any creation. if you made your wealth for 40 years in france using the infrastructure and you decide to move to trinidad, you should pay tax in proportion to the number of years you have spent. the u.s. do that through u.s. citizenship. as long as you keep citizenship, you should pay the same tax. that is one possibility. a better way to do it, more modern way to do it is to do it with the number of years you have spent say in your adult life in the different countries. this is just common

i visited the g20 infrastructure hub in melbourne. part of the reason they were set up was that they go in and help advise local infrastructure regulatory agencies on how to facilitate private investment in infrastructure in their countries. they told me they were very disappointed in trying to deal with some of the agencies in africa who did not show enough interest or understanding of the fact that a good deal of infrastructure comes now from private sector provisioning. i joked about visiting the philippines in 1998, the joke was the philippines is a sick man of asia, but i nearly went deaf because of all the banging away from construction. and i said this sick man manages to find money. oge onubogu: i just want to let the audience know we can start getting questions ready now. several questions have come in from the thoughts you have laid out. before he turned to the audience for questions, i want to address the elephant in the room when it comes to sovereign wealth funds, the question of governance. ultimately at the end of the d

as i say, when obama made his first visit for the g20, only one leader of all the 20 nations gets invited buckingham palace for lunch, and that is the american president. peter: what does it mean to be a royalist? mr. charter: yes. that's a good question. and i think in u.k. terms, it means to be supportive of this institution as an important function of british governance, of british governance, but also our way of life. you know, on christmas day, many brits would settle downmessage. and i personally feel that this became such a fixture with the queen that it will definitely continue with king charles now on the throne. and it' one point where we get to hear from them directly. to be a royalist really means that you've somehow squared this strange contradiction iitis life. that we are a democracy, a very old democracy, and yet our head of stas not elected, they are born into it. an to somehow make that contradiction reality, royal famias to strive to remainpopult in its senior members, to be actually focused on being in promotio my try. but this system cannot be sustained without popula

in 2022, for example, it rejected the g7’s demand to exclude russia from the g20.o fight attempts to appropriate russian assets, us plans to deploy medium and shorter ranges in asia worry jakarta as well as moscow. in the international arena , we are given the opportunity to coordinate our positions , including within the framework of asir. we also express the hope that the agreement on... in the free trade area between the european union and indonesia, which has already been actually prepared for signing , will also play a significant role, and the european union market is quite large and capacious, but the indonesian market, a country with almost 300 million people, will also is of great interest to russia. export of russian wheat alone to indonesia grew 10-fold last year, investments tripled, trade and economic ties have recently been developing very successfully, despite... shortages of funds unofficially, as the indonesian press wrote about, due to threats of american sanctions, but trade, the country’s joint exercises continue to this day, which subianta spok

have stepped up and said it's time to provide clarity and falling behind vis-a-vis the rest of the g20o knows? legislation is always hard, but i feel pretty hard about the chances that we have and any incremental progress that we make is very important and so we're fighting for that every day. >> faryar, good to check in with you. >> thank you for having me on. >>> coming up, crypto is not the only part of the market that could see big changes in november, the tech sector might look different under a second trump presidency and we'll dig into that scenario in today's tech check. as we head to break here are names hitting an all-time ghhi and eli lilly lil', evercore and stifel, that and more after the break. buys them? that's mean or, what if everybody buys them? oh, i hadn't thought of that that's probably not gonna happen can we handle that kind of traffic? the network can handle it! i downloaded eight hours of true crime stories just during our last video call i'm learning a lot something amazing is happening here. retailers are moving inventory quickly and securely. that's because

have been meeting with biden at summits regularly, whether it's the united nations or the g7 or the g20the years. they come for state meetings. they have seen him visibly slow down. his physical mobility, they have noticed is nowhere close to what it used to be, his ability to catch everything they're saying, engage, i mean, just do the job of the president. it's not that he's feebleminded but he's not who joe biden was when he won the presidency. and i will tell you that no one thinks that he could run the country effectively as president for another four years. and i'm talking about american allies here. that's a serious problem. that's a serious problem, and they worry, of course, that if he stays the course, that that means that biden is more likely to lose. they're not going to make public statements about, you know, that biden needs to step down. they're allies of the u.s. it would be utterly inappropriate for them to do so. you would not see a leader on the global stage that isn't concerned about this issue. you won't. >> there's a lot of concern about a lot of things. before you

time when my predecessor was visiting together, going together with me to these meetings of g7 and g20t office here in the u.s.? ch. scholz: no. amna: i do want to ask you about the other major war and that is of course, israel's war in gaza. your foreign minister recently just condemned israel's strikes this week that were at both tent areas for displaced palestinians outside a school in southern gaza. those were called unacceptable by your foreign minister. and she said that the repeated attacks on schools by the israeli army must stop. the question is, how do you get them to stop? ch. scholz: we have a clear understanding of what about the situation. the first is that of the brutal attack of hamas against israeli citizens, israel has the right to defend itself against hamas. and right from the beginning, we were very clear saying that this has consequences for the way of doing this war against hamas, reducing the civilian casualties. we discussed about the need for humanitarian aid to get to gaza. we discussed about the question of west bank and that there should be not enlargement

time when my predecessor was visiting together, going together with me to these meetings of g7 and g20fice here in the u.s.? chancellor scholz: no. amna: i do want to ask you about the other major war. and that is, of course, israel's war in gaza. your foreign minister recently just condemned israel's strikes this week that were at both tent areas for displaced palestinians outside a school in southern gaza. those were called unacceptable by your foreign minister. and she said that the repeated attacks on schools by the israeli army must stop. the question is, how do you get them to stop? chancellor scholz: we have a clear understanding of what about the situation. the first is that, after the brutal attack of hamas against israeli citizens, israel has the right to defend itself against hamas. and right from the beginning, we were very clear, saying that this has consequences for the way of doing this war against hamas, reducing the civilian casualties. we discussed about the need for humanitarian aid to get to gaza. we discussed about the question of west bank and that there should be

are you aware that we are one of the first g20 countries, or the first g20 country to half our emissions kind of. you know, preaching to the converted. the uk has done probably one of the most in terms of all the western countries over the last 50 years to reduce our carbon emissions. we're responsible for less than 1% of global emissions. and actually we've had to de—industrialise to get that. so now we're effectively increasing the overall emissions. and adrian lee, if i may interrupt adrian lee, if i may interrupt adrian as well, you've got what you wanted. >> you've got a labour government. ed miliband running riot, scrapping any new licences in the north sea, wind farms everywhere . you've got what you everywhere. you've got what you wanted. so why are you still trying to block people enjoying the summer holidays, especially when your own protesters do the same thing? they're off to dubai and wherever else because yeah, i'm hugely proud of what the uk has achieved so far, but it clearly is not enough. >> you need to go further and we need to go faster. we need to have a sense of urg

i think the reason why the markets will calm was not just that she didn't get the g20, but as we've seen over the course of this week, you've had this funny horse trading between the far across, between the center and the far-left, trying to make sure there's only one candidate to stand against the rassemblement unless you're now they seem to have been remarkably successful given how extreme many of those left-wing policies are. i think the market is very happy that the left is also probably not going to beta position because if anything, their policies, or even, even more extreme would do even more damage to the balance sheet. so now let's go over to the united states and how the kind of meltdown is, how will it affect? europe and the trans-atlantic alliance? let's just say there is another trump presidency. people have seen it. people have tried to trump-proof he over this side of the atlantic i've longed detected a sense of fatalism among europeans. >> europeans, i think even more than americans will tell you. we know it's going to be donald trump they just feel that's the trajectory

something broader, this summit is much less formal than the 620 summit is much less formal than the g20que stating what they decided. it gives keir starmer an opportunity two weeks to the day since the general election to meet a lot of these european leaders for the first time. it was not his idea when he became prime minister. the uk began preparations to host this summit when rishi sunak was prime minister. but the timing is pretty good for this new prime minister. as handover gifts go, not bad at all. thank you very much. hundreds of prisoners are to be moved out of dartmoor prison following the discovery of radioactive gas. 175 inmates will be evacuated from the category c men's prison, after high levels of radon were detected within cells. the ministry ofjustice says there is enough capacity to cope. two young children have been injured — one of them seriously — after a fire in blackpool which killed their parents. firefighters were called to a house on peter street in the early hours of yesterday morning. the children's mother was pronounced dead at the scene and theirfather died

so i echo his comments but to address the growing problem of indebtedness of low-income countries, g20 nations and the paris will be agree to the common framework with the ccp so can you speak of any of your efforts to force the ccp to make sovereign lending more transparent through the common framework? >> we have engaged thoroughly over a long period of time in deeply in every day we can with china to bring them to the table to participate actively in restructurings through the common framework. it's been frustrating but i think that there has been some progress with urge the imf, the world bank that have set up sovereign debt round table in which it's a form to his cuss issues that china routinely raises that aren't really case specific but broader and -- >> thank you. >> and i think we've made some progress there. there are several countries -- >> thank you, secretary, let's continue to be more vigilant in making sure that like-minded countries and with our allies that we can force ccp to be more transparent. i'm going to move onto the question next, you know, we cannot afford to c

this is a fairly new type of summit, if you are still following them, the g7, g20, we are of course alreadyhard to keep track of even for those who go to them. the european political community, a format born after russia's invasion of ukraine, was all organized by macron. nearly 50 european leaders are meeting to solve problems like those involving russia. think about where this meeting is taking place, this is the place where winston churchel was born, when in europe russia is almost unanimously seen as a significant adversary, this takes us back to the times of the second world war, so the leaders present here should re-evaluate everything that is being said o donald trump of american politics, which, frankly, has changed in the last 2 weeks, and these leaders must ask themselves a very important question, to which we do not have a clear answer, is europe capable and does europe even want to support ukraine? now let's go to the front in these impressive footage of the capture by soldiers of the 57th guards brigade of the position of the ukrainian armed forces in the southern donetsk direc

but this is a big part of the job, this week is that nato summit, and then there will be a g7, and g20rime minister, is going to have to learn on the job quickly. he has not come from government, he has not been foreign secretary before or something like that, and the relationships he manages to forge or not forge with these world leaders could be crucial to his success on the world stage. let's talk a little bit about the defence spending issue, because this is notjust something that keir starmer will have to get his head around and be clear on, but also other nato leaders. it is key, isn't it? , ., , ., , it? yes, the debate on this has moved quickly. _ it? yes, the debate on this has moved quickly. every _ it? yes, the debate on this has moved quickly. every nato - it? yes, the debate on this has . moved quickly. every nato country for a long time has had a mandatory target, just a target, of spending 2% of national income on defence. backin 2% of national income on defence. back in 2021, only six of the nato members were hitting that target. since then, vladimir putin and russia in
