financial institutions are going to help than the help has to be targeted to those who are struggling the most. she says that essentially inflation is a taxation on the poorest in society. she's also aware that when that are financial issues, there can be political issues. and that has led to critics to wonder whether the international monetary fund and the world bank is fit for purpose in negotiating its way through this crisis. whether capitalism should continue to be the driver of what is happening with global economies. well, that is a point i put to a senior figure in the world bank. when you have these types of multiple crisis up there is this natural tendency to think about whether there is need for a revolution or a. it is another evolutionary point of view. think about the world bank and in tenisha motor font. they had been around for nearly 80 years. these institutions have you all with the evolution of the global economy and they will continue

revolving and less, don't forget, these are institutions. vit shareholders. they respond to their shareholders who are the shareholders, the global community. of course we will respond to the demands. we will adjust our walk programs accordingly. and we will do our best to respond to these multiple crisis says the i m f in the all banker meeting. here, there is a confluence of events which they have to worry about. first of all is inflation then that climate crises in various places around the world such as the floods and pakistan the floods even here in the united states. and then there is the war in ukraine, which is causing financial instability, but whole so has an impact on the food supply chain around the world. no, according to the i am, if 48 countries are facing food insecurity. that's 325000000 people most keenly failed in areas like the horn of africa on this a hill. and there is

a waddy that some families won't be able to feed themselves unless that situation is addressed pretty rapidly by the global financial power houses. the i m f as sharply criticized the u. k. government offered financial plans, cause havoc on the markets and raise questions about the future. the prime minister list trust, a many budget last month sent the pan plummeting with the bank of england, forced to intervene to prop up government bonds and protect pension funds. i'm f said what it called coherent and consistent policies were needed. the british finance minister was returned early from i'm if meetings in washington defended his decision. there was some turbulence i am frank estimated about okay though, after the book. but where i'm sitting here talking about the global challenges, everybody is focused on inflation. everybody's affected by a potential interest rate rises, everybody's affected by the energy price spikes, which have been exacerbated by puritans, illegal war in ukraine. so everybody across the global financial community is

really focusing on the same problems. but the key price is the chief advisor at the center for economics and business research. she says the british government has already made a u turn on plans to cut tax for top earners, but it hasn't been enough to calm the market to morrison but interesting day because the bank of england, when it announced that it wasn't going to be selling a government bond, this is in tend to cheer it said he was going to be selling something like $18000000.00 a year from here on. he said that on september the 22nd which was just a day before the many budgets. and at that same time, the race interest rate is 50 basis points. that would have meant something like 60000000000 of sales just this financial. yeah. that would have been additional to anything else. the government would perhaps need to do to get the kristi price cap at the $2.00 and a half 1000 pounds to said the average for households and also helping businesses. well, the moment the many budget was announced a day off the announcement,

but the bank of england, we saw the market really, really get a very worried pushing yields out very significantly number was long term interest rates and selling bones very significantly pension funds to considerable trouble. so the bank of england started intervening in the market. now that intervention was meant to finish tomorrow. the markets are going to be looking at that very, very carefully. and i'm suspecting that there is because turbulence partly tomorrow, but also following that because we have to wait until october 31st. before we hear about whether some of those changes in that policy are going to be implemented. what's the dependent? not sure what's responsibility says the fiscal position is going to be just not just this year, but in years i had because the tax cuts that we announced the huge hole in our finances witness will prices for certain foods have already doubled in sri lanka

a $2900000000.00 bailout from the international monetary fund. it has reached the staff level agreement with the institution. but that is very much dependent on the country, being able to come up with an acceptable roadmap, agreed to by its creditors of how they will repeat the unsustainable debt. as some observers have described it, obviously, the i m f. a welcoming the agreement, but also marking the fact that it is conditional. they have pointed out that it is bad management and mismanagement. that has brought the country but for longer has a bunch of bad luck and nor where is that economic crunch being felt more than in markets like this, where people are struggling to make ends meet. north korea has fired at least one short range missiles into its eastern waters and flown warplanes near the border with south korea. is the latest in a series of weapons test. in the past 2 weeks. south korea's military has warned

moscow, was the leaders have been talking about this potential solution ever since the explosions that damaged nordstrom $1.00 and $2.00, those major pipelines that had been exporting russian gas to western europe. russia has a strong desire to find alternative meas, to continue its exportation of gas to western europe and other countries. and president vladimir putin in stana made that clear when he proposed a platform to be built in turkey for the distribution of russian gas to. so if there is an interest from to kia and our potential pies in other countries, we would consider the possibility of building another gas pipeline system and creating a gas health inter kia for sales to 3rd countries, primarily of costing you opinions if they're of course interested in this, the work of this hub, which we could create together, would be a platform, not just for supplies, but for determining the price to because this is

a very important issue. today, the prices are exorbitant, and we could regulate them at a normal market level without political overtones. the company spokesman dmitri pest coffers in as tanner said, that to present l t one and present putting, showed strong desire for an immediate implementation of the idea. and the 2 companies, russian, gus from, and turkish bought us pipelines, corporation. i've already started talking about the way to go forward with this plan. russia has been exporting gas through the black sea air, through its pipeline called turk stream. but that might not be enough for the implementation of his project, and that's why the 2 countries are now thinking about building a 2nd pipeline. the idea for putting, according to what he said, it is to stabilize prices and control them and also avoid this link that he

mentioned between politics and it, mick relations between the different countries. he said the europe is half politicized. it gas resources and economic expectations from russia, and that should be avoided. there should be alternatives to that type of that behavior. iraq's parliament has finally elected a new president, the appointment of 78 year old kurdish politician abdullatif. rashid ends, months of political deadlock and heightened instability. just before he was elected rockets landed in bagdad green zone. zan was robbie reports on the rocky capital. as iraqi politicians met to choose a new president and prime minister multiple rockets landed in central book dog, several near government buildings including parliament. one striking the roof of a mosque just outside the green. so a session of parliament without some kind of violence, iraq, you say, might seem incomplete. well, what i d o got. we saw the rockets hayes were accustomed to it. it happened is over
