5:20 am
amazon explains why from new york, the unprecedented sanctions are directly aimed at the russian economy of indiana was the predicted. there could be a wider effect on the global economy as well, particularly in higher prices of petrol. and that's exactly what we're now starting to see here in new york, the price of a gallon of petrol in some places is over $5.00, or just over $1.25 a liter. it's a highest. it's been since 2014 just overnight thursday and friday, the price of petrol jumped $0.11 in the u. s. and it's gone up $0.29 since russia began its invasion of ukraine. russian oil has not yet been sanctioned. so the question is, why are petrol prices still rising them? it's complicated, but the short answer is, is that oil traders are worried about higher prices of doing business in russia. primarily can they get oil tankers into russian ports?
5:21 am
and also, how are they going to deal with exchanging money with russian banks that have been sanctioned as well? just a few of their concerns. this is why they're buying less russian. oil and prices are then going up, add it all up, and that is why we're seeing higher prices at the pump. let's get some of the new, you know, a suicide bomber has killed least $56.00 people and injured $200.00 in a ship. most in pocket on females have been held for some of those killed in the northwest and city of showa. police say the suicide bomber 1st open fire and all this before forcing his way inside and then detonated his suicide fence during friday prayers. south korea's military says north korea's find a suspect of ballistic missiles, too, as waters east of the peninsula. japan's defense ministry also said it was an apparent ballistic missile. if confirmed it will be north korea's 9th weapons test

this year. china's government has set a growth targets, a 5 and a half percent this year at the lowest in decades. subdued forecast has been unveiled at china's annual legislative session. the will 2nd largest economy is grappling with coven 19 outbreaks. the property slumped, an uncertainty from the hole in ukraine. i sent to katrina you is in beijing for us . katrina, katrina, a very subdued target for china. how is the government explaining it? what time his economic growth has been slowing steadily now for a few years. and this year it faces more headwinds, specifically from the international environment leak chunk. didn't mention it specifically, but we are probably referring to the continuing pandemic. and of course, the tensions and the continuing war in ukraine. so the theme of this year's work report was definitely stability. it was the word we had time and time again from
5:23 am
premier lee could chung stability when it comes to the economy and when it comes to society at large. so some key targets that we were watching out for was the g d p target. as mentioned 5.5 percent or around 5.5 percent, which is the lowest g d p target. china has officially set since 1991. but it is in line with expectations. some other targets we saw was a budget deficit going forward of 2.8 percent and consumer price index of 3 percent . so keeping inflation down is going to be a challenge as it is in many other countries, and an aim to set up an unemployment at 5.5 percent. now in addition to some of these international headwinds, china's economy is also facing a lot of difficulties domestically. we've had this slowing consumption now, largely in june, june to china's very strict 0 corporate tolerance strategy that haven't been able
5:24 am
to really pick up spending a retail spending of some years now, which is a concern also struggles in the housing sector due to tightening regulations. small and medium enterprises are struggling to survive and unemployment is also very big one. china has more than 10000000 graduates entering the job market this year. and we've seen in recent years, quite a high proportion of young people are, are, are responsible for this unemployment figure here in china. so the government is really focusing on social stuff. see, and getting as many people back into work or into work. now when i haven't heard anything about any sort of stimulus that reaching this 5.5 percent isn't going to be easy, even though it's lowest target. we've seen in a while it could involve some more spending, perhaps when it comes to infrastructure and possibly also some loosening or flexibility of china is monetary policies going forward. now what we didn't here in this report was any significant change or development when it comes to trying to
