8:03 pm
troubling. that have been problems over the last 1520 years. you remember the great financial crisis about 15 years ago, 2 years of covered, that course, significant problems as well. and here we have them saying that things are even worse and could get feel bad in 2023 as well. whole reason for what's actually going on. there is the war in ukraine, which is causing energy problems and foot problems. there's a climate crisis as well. there are difficulties to with a political instability, if you'd think about places like lebanon, where the political instability is lead to banking crisis, and also shall anchor where the political instability there comes at the same time as the country is struggling under massive debt. so all of the was bill den, and i think people are realizing that it doesn't matter how often these things come together to come together. all at once. pose is major challenges for everyone that comes. busy here to the international monetary fund that they've been looking at, things like growth and inflation. let's just take
8:04 pm
a look at growth in 2021. there were 6 percent growth across the world. no growth is needed to stimulate economies to create jobs, to give people good, paying it a good paying wages and 2022. the growth. what globally will go down to 3.2 percent . and if you look at next year, it is only 2.7 percent. no inflation is an issue too. and that's where everyone seems to be feeling the pinch. everything seems to be more expensive. it's a struggle for ordinary people to do ordinary things like feed their family are also just perpetual in their car. and the inflation figures are quite frightening. 4.7 percent and 2021. 8.8 percent in 20. 22. things get better in 2023, dropping down to 6.5 percent, but they're going the inflation figure is going to be higher for longer. meaning that people will feel the pain well in to 2023, which is why the international monetary fund is saying that 2023 for many countries
8:05 pm
will feel like a recession. in fact, a 3rd of the countries in the world will experience 2 quarters of negative growth. that means recession. this is the fact that in person gathering in 3 years. but there's an acceptance here that it can't be business as usual. on fisher in washington, dc for us. thank you for the i m f has cut to china's growth prospects for next 2 years. the world's 2nd largest economy is predicted to grow by only 3.2 percent this year. if that happens, it will be the lowest growth rating for decades. excluding june, the start of the pandemic in 2020. from beijing. patrick voc has more. well, as the saying goes, when china sneezes the world catches a cold, that's certainly the case for emerging and developing asia where the i m f, has so forecasted to decline and growth from 7.2 percent in 2021 to 4.4 percent in 2022, that's a downgrade of 0.2 percent. since july,
8:06 pm
it large reflects the downgrade to growth in china to 3.2 percent for this year to the countries slowest to growth rate in more than 4 decades. if you exclude the initial outbreak of the coven, 19 crisis in 2020, and the i m. f. has singled out the slow down in china as being a key challenge for the global economy, frequent curve at 90 loc dance across the country of taking that. so crimping, local demand, and causing significant supply chain disruptions. it's also deep into decline in home cells and part of the quality pressures on developers bias concerned about the delivery or residential units of boycotting mortgage payments, threatening sector, which accounts for one 5th of china's g. d. p, they're also fears of a spill over into the banking sector, which could weigh on medium term growth. now the i m f is recommending authorities enable a restructuring of troubled developers,
8:07 pm
so to avoid any broader risk to the financial system. and all eyes will no doubt be on the upcoming commas party congress for clues on how the country intends to navigate it's way out of the coven. 19 crisis. nigeria is one of those countries feeling the brunt of the war in ukraine, even before russia's invasion, the un? well food program had to cut rations by 50 percent due to a funding shortfall made to interest reports from port harko. in the north of the country you are, most of the grain is produced, prizes have remain high despite new harvest. here in this how food is even more it's posted is i really go you that is. i did, i day i came to buy or ice on the money out budget for the rise. i didn't go out with so i'll go back and i did is our bracing promo price increases in probably
8:08 pm
a month because i just cultural production has been impacted by applauding at what lies a shortage and because the country doesn't define its own petroleum products, the war in ukraine are forced up the price of fuel on transport. it also have doctors without borders is reporting large cases of modern recruitment in the northwest of the country impacted by years of tax. quite criminal objects in little piece of the country, bottom, insurgency, 13 years of luck with millions of people in need of food assistance, just as go not protect the u. s. that says it's re evaluating its relationship with re add off. the saudi led to opec plus group decided to steeply cut production organization of oil producing countries announced its decision last week despite us opposition to whitehouse says president joe biden is willing to work with congress after sen cold for freeze on corporation with saudi arabia. kimberly how kit has more from the white house. well, this is something that has really been
8:09 pm
a concern for many on capitol hill for some time this us sadie relationship. and there has been a concern about particularly the issue of human rights. and so this is something that many members of congress, not from the opposition republican party, but also from the president's own democratic party, have been urging the white house to do not just the biden administration, but also the trump administration for many years to re evaluate this relationship and so this is something that, as we've been reporting the national security spokesperson, john kirby says, is now something that the white house is willing to look at. a given the fact that the president didn't travel to saudi arabia recent month, did feel that he had a good conversation with the saudi current prince, but haven't been seldman, but they're not happy with the fact that now there has this been decision, this decision by opec to in fact cut production and so there's
8:10 pm
a number of reasons why the white house is not happy about this decision. and one of the big reasons is that there is a congressional election that is coming up in just a matter of weeks. in fact, in november, and this is really seem to benefit the president's political adversaries. here in the united states. high energy prices really are not good for the president politically. and so that's one reason that this white house is not happy about this . but the other reason that the white house is not happy about this is that the fact that this is really seen is aligning with russia. we're staying with this now . doug bondo is a senior fellow at the cato institute. he joins us from washington, d. c. thanks for joining us. so how much internal division is there in the white house over the relationship with saudi arabia? do you believe? well, there is a fairly significant split. the president came into office saying that he was going
8:11 pm
to treat a saudi arabia as a pariah. he flip that around, he clearly was persuaded by members of his staff that it was important to try to work the relationship and that they believed the saudis would be forthcoming on oil . what is happening now, i think, is shifting the power balance within the white house, back towards his initial stance. quite embarrassing for him, especially because it appears that saudi arabia is working with rock. so that is not only human rights issue. it's a security issue. and with that shift, as he say, what practical measures might be taken to express the white house, his displeasure for the most obvious would be for the white house to back away from arm safe. you know, the saudi arabia has been relying on that with its war in yemen. you know, that would be a fairly significant blow to the saudis, to indicate they could not to count on future american arms emissions sales. you
8:12 pm
know, the u. s. could consider, you know, some form of sanctions on the crown prince. i think that's unlikely, but that would be a threat down the road. and they certainly want to take some public step to demonstrate that the saudis cannot easily align with russia against the united states and europe. summing turbines, support base were unhappy with the outcome of his recent trip to the middle east. so he continues to be working on something a tight rope head does me? yes, he faces, especially among progressives. a lot of criticism. no, saudi arabia is a terrible regime when it comes to human rights. it's near the very bottom is rated by freedom. how's you compare it to other countries? it's actually worse than russia worse than iran, l. so from his standpoint, in the progressive standpoint, they want to see action. the president came in talking about human rights. he said
8:13 pm
that would be a touchstone of his administration. and progressives are now pointing at saudi arabia saying, we want action. okay, doc up on da, senior fellow at the cato institute to thanks for your insights here today. you're welcome. russia has praised the decision by opec plus to sharpie, cut back on all the production precedent that in that patina said it was made to help stabilize the global market. he made the remarks at a meeting with the leader of the united arab emirates overseas. and we are actively working in the framework plus our decisions. our action aren't directed against anyone. we are and acting to create problems for anyone. our actions are ain't anxious to built in global energy markets. said i had to announces era ours off to pounding ukrainian city upper region. russia says that in that putting it could be open to meeting just by the ah,

8:22 pm
consumption by 15 percent. like other european cities. brock has decided to stop illuminating some of its famous monuments. but everyone agrees more far reaching measures are needed, and especially in the east and the south of europe, there's a real push for a price gap on gas. the countries are discussing the forms of price cap, could take some want a maximum price to be set for all gas. but a compromise could be in the works. we definitely need to at least a d. couple of the price of gas from the pros, electrical energy produced from gas, or that is something that can be done pretty quickly. we have this experience from spain and portugal that have done so our so with liberal fine tuna inc. i think we can do that quickly enough that are still countries like germany who don't agree with this. of course it is an expensive thing to do, but at the same time. now discussion as well should be fine. is this the coupling or should rekey fight and seeing the energy cost for people and as far as small,
