well yes, so this is an important summit for turkey and for the african countries, because as the 37, it was halted a couple of times that global pandemic, so true his relations with africa have deepen in early 2000 to started it took you became a strategic part there for africa, but now this time and search summit, turkish officials suggests that it proposes african solutions to the, to africa as problems. this is the theme of the summit as turkish officials have put through and prisons are done just during his opening remarks. he says that true, he is a forged tours. africa is not an oriental except for it. so basically it to size african countries entered. you have been trying to deepen their relations and adjust it that way. just to say that it's the fact that it's a fact that it's a blooming relation. tricky. increase this number of diploma technicians in africa

from 12 to 4 to 3 in the last 18 years. and just within the last 3 years. so hale african and that number of african diplomatic missions and the turkish capital ankara went from 10 to 37. and today, there are nearly 39 african countries represented in the summit, despite the global append that make this fight to very into attendance is high. and we are waiting for a joint action plan that will cover the policies for the next 5 years to enhance violations. relations will come back to you when that to communicate is issued. thank you sim. now this year, the world burned more coal for electricity than ever before. the international energy agency says the global economic recovery has driven a 9 percent or driven a 9 percent increase in power generation from coal and its forecast to hit another record. next year, china generates half of all cold by electricity, but output was also up in india,

the u. s. and the either ship. and that's because renewable sources couldn't keep up with increased demand. calls applies around a 3rd of the world's electricity and is the single biggest source of global carbon emissions. let's bring in chris a little coats. he's an associate director for fossil fuel trans transition at e 3, g. i think tank focused on climate change. joe's been off from milton keynes in the u. k. okay, thank you very much for your time. and joining us here on al jazeera, i mean, in the developing world, coal is easier and cheaper and cheaper option sort of help small industry recover. certainly from the pandemic, and it's vital for some nations ready to get back on their feet. it's, and you might say an easy argument to make at this moment in time. but those words are very welcome bye. a number of people, a number of organizations and governments elsewhere around the globe. so that's a saturday, right? if you have a, an option immediately in front of yourself,

you will, you will use it. and that's what's been the case around the world this past year. but fundamentally, that's a bit of a divergence from the underlying trend about when new investment is going. and what we are now seeing is that renewables, such as wind and solar, are now cheaper than, than investment in new call for power generation. and are actually increasingly becoming cost competitive or cheaper than existing co generation. so, re pandemic, the underlying trends. we're looking quite positive for, for a structural movement away from carl. and, and that's been disrupted a bit by, by 1st the huge drops that we saw in korea. and now do the bounce. of course, you know, we've just seen a cult summit finish in glasgow barry's countries making really big promises. but the final communicate was diluted down about fossil fuel,

about whether it be phased out or, you know, completely wiped out completely. but india was promising or has promised since i was 50 percent of its energy from renewable sources. i mean, i've seen some of those wind and solar farms in southern india and it's very impressive. but do you think india really needs to do ball? because i think that wise words from the prime minister rand, remotely, for example. but whether it happens practically, it's very much of the thing. hello . hello, chris, could you hear me? i heard up to final communique. yes. i apologize about that. just very briefly that we have the cop 26 meeting in glasgow come countries making big promises, including india, which uses a lot of coal, but also has spearheaded its own way of trying to find renewable sources in wind and solar power. diff glasgow outcome was extremely

encouraging. if, if anyone had been asked to bet on whether china and india would be willing to put ford language around phasing down call in a form. you are an f triple c negotiation. no one would put any money on it. it really shows how far the world is moving. india is, has great plans for renewable deployment. and, and if it follows through those that will be eating the market for new car power generation. and already multiple power plants in india have been paused mid construction because they come on mixed on stock. so again, i think we're seeing this, this tension right now between the underlying trends moving in the right direction . and what is called a blip in terms of how the economic crunch from the cobit cross, which has the impacted on this kind of mismatch between supply and demand in the short term. so the, you and target to, to sort of reduce fossil fuels of 2050. but both india and china missing that india

says, you know, it'll be carbon neutral by what 27 t china. not really the cop sub, officially a such, but they say 2060 i mean they're still way off the targets. i mean, how does that been impact on, on the way an organization like you pressurize in governments and talks to them and says, you got to do better? i think all of these governments who are aiming for net 0 overall outcomes will recognize that coal has to move fast and fast. so those and and timeframes that you're going to are correct. but there for the whole economy, not, not just count power generation. what we've seen, particularly in our city country, so europe and north america is that one countries get on the track of investing and clean and coming out of coal, they can actually accelerate. so the 1st thing is to get moving on. i think that

the recognition by india and china that they will do that is a very positive recognition, not only of the underlying trend, but also of the diplomatic conversation that's been having around the world. the u . k. cut presidency. really put call on the agenda in a very positive way. and and that fruit. so the for the, for the 1st time, last year or this year of a in 2021. all of the g 7. the g 20 the cop conference, all had called explicitly on the agenda all the way up to lead level. that was really unprecedented and just shows just how serious it's beginning to be taken. well, it's been good to talk to chris from a a 3 g. thanks so much for joining us. thank you. trying to 2nd largest real estate developer has been officially declared in default by credit agencies. evergreen's crisis will be felt by her buyers and millions who work in the property market as katrina. you explains that all fears about how the world wanted economy

will be affected. it's called fairy land, but it feels like a ghost town. the ever grand project is just one of hundreds in china stalled because of the real estate giant's financial troubles. it's more than $300000000000.00 in debt and has defaulted on to overseas bonds. okay. yeah. retired pharma, mrs tongue lives close by and has brought her granddaughter here to play to the hey kristie there, it's such a shame. it looks like is a nice place building began in 2017, but no one knows if it will ever be finished. this theme park is meant to be the highlight of the sprawling new development called ever grand cultural tourism city . the grand plan involve luxury apartments, hotels, and restaurants. lots of the companies, bills started piling up, construction ground to work stopped in august, abandon materials and machinery, a left where a grad castle entrance was supposed to be. the security guard says he hasn't been

lation to control the mounting debt last year. analysts say it's trying to teach property developers lesson while also trying to shield the sector and broader economy from a crisis. a will affect the international economy, but not, not in a disastrous way. so i think we go slow down trying to how the market, there is a weaker demand for commodities. and so that will put a damper on commodity prices. and china's economy slows down. that can have a brother impact for the global market that matches little to the families who have pulled their savings into ever grad investments. like this unfinished park. there's little to be done. but wait, katrina, you al jazeera pseudo national day celebrations underway in castle thousands. the

to just to tease algeria anthony's yet. and the north african dobby to decide who will win the arab cup at al bite stadium. both sides had dramatic semi finals. the algerians knocked out hosts cattle in a nail biting finish. which controversially saw 19 minutes of stoppage time added on at the 70 minute algeria were awarded a penalty. east valley. miss scott, the rebound reversed the fun to one. i'll cheer hibler me a bound for 7 days final. although algeria, the current african champions, they're missing the european bay stars who weren't released for this arab cup. algeria is 18 though, have so far done a convincing job of making it this fall or are in finance, obviously come her. a darby in the far knoll is like the previous match. it's about who wants it more. that is speech about the state of mind. it's about wanting to

i drafted back into the algeria squad, they may be able to secure their place for the africa couple of nations alongside those european stars. so as an important game for the algeria 18, but also to nicea. although they did when an arab cup tie, so back in 1963, as i mentioned earlier, 58 years of waiting for them. but they're a big team on the world stage. and yet they're so underwhelming should we say when it comes to winning titles, they've made 5 well cup appearances so far. but aside from the arab cup title, the only other title that they won is the 2004 africa cove nations and nothing since then. so that will be an important one for them to win to you have the tournament stuff, so score other cipher dangers very. he's got 4 goals and he'll be hoping to add to that later when they match kicks off in a few hours time. it outweighed stadium. boy joe will speak. you get a little bit later on. thank you very much for that. a little earlier in this

studio, my colleague, some are homeless, spoke to nasa bell hutton, the chief executive officer for the cutter. 2022 woke up. she started by asking how the arab cup had gone and what they had learned for next year. it surpassed all our expectations in every sense, whether it's from the attendance of fans or um, whether it's the learnings that we've had from the fee for our cup. um, whether it's in the stadiums, public transport, we stress test a lot of our operations, which have been very good. i mean i can give you a few examples. i'm 20 to 25 percent of all fans who attended the games used the metro and public transport, which is something that hasn't happened before even in our previous events. and the other thing is we've tested the fine idea. we had 200000 as our target to test them . we've reached the target of $200000.00 found ideas, obviously with the fun ideas. there's a lot of q learnings there, and we're moving into the next phase of testing our prior to the world cup. or,

i mean that had a lot of benefits in terms of testing at the physical fun. i. d, the digital fan id, and we're confident now that we're gonna get it right. um, so i mean even in terms of the broadcast the viewership was, were really good. i think everybody surprised by the success of the tournament. and there is because for the tournament to continue in its current format now. so you must agree with me on this that our main concern now is the actual coven 19? now it's hitting all the sports. what is the plan? i was still going to have a full capacity stadiums. we're hoping and quite confident though, when the world cup reserves will have full capacity stadiums. we've seen that now. we've seen that the, the group stages were at 75 percent capacity. then when we moved into the later stages, they went to a 100 percent capacity. and this is also part of the test. all the data that's coming out from the ministry of public health are quite good. i don't want to say positive, but they're quite good. so we're confident we have strong protocols in place. so

now as you know, we're the 1st country to have hosted games with fans. during the pandemic. our protocols have been, we find and improved. we've shared our protocols with other governing sports, governing bodies. they've implemented them whether in whole or in part and we have our protocols and policies for the world cup ready right now that have been shared so we are as ready as we can be. now the rest is for making sure the world is able to keep covered and check. if things get worse, do you think you will be likely elim picks in tokyo and debating games like that? we're not going to accept any fans. look. i mean, i'm not a scientist, but in the medical world, they hopefully say that the worst is behind, i mean, whether it's on the, on the mutations and the vaccines and the effectiveness of these vaccines. i mean, we're hoping that it'll only get better from here. will bring you an extended

version of that interview later at $1500.00 gmc. meanwhile, the head of world football, johnnie infants, ino, is in favor of continuing the arab cup in its current format. this edition was the 1st time it was an official fee for tournament, and he says it's been an incredible success. not only of course, as a, as a, as a test event for the work about it's much, much more than that. actually, it has transformed itself after a few 1st matches into a real competitions into a real world cup to determine which is the best team in the out of world. and we know how big it is. 450000000 people and so many emotions. but we have seen great football. you've seen incredible infrastructure as we have seen. great emotions, sport around the world is struggling to keep going. amid the spread of the army kron variance of covert. 19 the boston celtics had one. the last 5 against the
