10:06 pm
residence at downing street on just how bad a day it's been. phyllis truss, i think potentially extremely damaging police trust, potentially catastrophic for, for her premier ship. remember, she's been in office for just over a month now. she has no popular political mandate. she was elected by 1000 conservative party members to whom she promised higher growth up the back of lower taxes and radical economic reforms. a promise that looks to have been torpedoed and you turns reversals on political policy. decisions are always damaging for a prime minister. they eat away the promised his credibility. they've been a few of those not least the softer news here down the street during the political campaign leadership campaign in the summer, she swore it was the centerpiece of her campaign. indeed that she would reverse a plan. rise in corporation, taxes put in place by riches sumac, her opponent, then the chancellor. previously, we'll see santa ro back on that,
10:07 pm
those rises will go ahead in the campaign. she said they'd be no public sector budget cuts will issue implied. they would have to be public sector budget cuts, that, of course, she, you turn on her chancellor quasi qua tank. he was sacked this afternoon. meanwhile, the international monetary fund is urging european leaders to make tough choices. the group has released its latest for cars saying a warn ukraine is hitting europe's post. pandemic recovery hard. the i'm f predicts growth in develop european countries will fall from 3.2 percent this year to just point 6 percent in 20. 23. coming into 2022, thanks to the strength, coordination and solidarity displayed in policy responses to call the 19 euro pause on its way to exit depend demik. meanwhile, rising inflation was expected to gradually subside as commodity prices and supply for the next would ease. but russia's invasion of ukraine changed
10:08 pm
a picture completely, and it is now taking a growing toll on europe's economies. so now speak to alan fisher. he joins us from . i'm at headquarters in washington. we've just been hearing from john at yell and treasury secretary in just the last 60 minutes now what she said about the way in which russia has been impacted while she was talking about how the allies of come together to make sure that there are financial consequences for what has happened in ukraine, and she insists that russia has been financially we can buy the sanctions that are in put in place and also the blockades that have been put in place. but that still doesn't the tribe from the fact that the water ukraine is one of the big talking points here at the i m f and the impact has had on global markets. though we know that there's a cost of living crisis at, according to the i m f, it's about 7 percent more expensive to live in europe. there was a year ago. that means that if you've got $100.00 to spend on food,
10:09 pm
it will go quite as far. and if you're on a limited budget, as many people are on the, we just haven't tracked quite the same as inflation. then it means that we'll go quite as far and we know that because of the war in ukraine, there's also going to be energy problems in europe. and that is acknowledged by the i m f saying that there's a real difficulty there. and during the winter there could well be gas shortages and perhaps even rationing. and they see that that's not just the case. that is going to be over and done with by the end of this winter. this could well gone for a year and a half. the continuing problem in europe and in many other places is that growth is down, inflation is up. and in europe, they think that inflation will continue to be high before coming down in 2023. but many countries will essentially feel as if they're in a recession. and that means any aid to people in europe from the government has to be targeted. and it has to be short term. but it has to be temporary to make sure that they can get through this crisis. so the outlook is bleak for the global
10:10 pm
economy. and obviously developed countries have been affected by a one ukraine, and inflation. but what about developing countries, particularly in africa? alan sla, africa also suffering the after effects of the war in ukraine and mainly a through the problem of food insecurity. many people they are don't know when the next time they will have a decent meal. 123000000 people according to the international monetary fund, impacted by food insecurity. and it stretches all the way from this a hail to the horn of africa. those of the watched affected areas. but this is a problem continent white. and they know that when our financial problems and problems like this, they can lead to political problems and we've seen some upheaval in africa already . there are additional problems as well. in africa, not least, the only 21 percent of the population. the continent has been vaccinated against coven 19. that means that they are more susceptible to new outbreaks,
10:11 pm
more susceptible to new a variance. and so there's an appeal really to try and help africa get through that . then add to that there's climate change. there been real climate emergencies in africa, from a, from a continent that hasn't really contributed it to a greenhouse gases, but seems to suffer disproportionately. so there are real problems there and then governments are faced with the idea of trying to help those who are struggling most, but realizing that they have dep payments to meet. and they've also got to try and keep essential public services walking. so that puts a real strain on finances essentially as the delegates are leaving here from washington over the next couple of days. there is a reality that the economic picture not just in europe and not just in africa, but globally is pretty bleak. thank here alan, sasha, m, washington. ah, you credit official as saying rushes call for residence to flee. the harrison
10:12 pm
region amounts to deportation, not evacuation. he says its forces have made significant gains in the southern region liberating $75.00 settlements in the past month. the regions russian installed leader called on civilians to evacuate on thursday, citing day rocket attacks by advancing ukrainian troops keep rejects these accusations that it targets its own civilians. harrison is one of 4, partly occupied ukrainian province is annexed by moscow last month. charles ratford is in agree very close to the front lines in terms of what an evacuation would look like. it's really important to recognize that this statement from this russian and school official is saying that these people should go to the russian side to towns like rosters roast off on don in russia. we know, having seen footage at the early stages of this rule, the immense protests that people are put up inside care so on against the
10:13 pm
occupation people standing in front of russian tanks demanding that the russians withdrawal. so there are a lot of people in that city that are very pro ukrainian. so one in fact and evacuation would look like whether it would be a full st evacuation. whether in fact that could be some sort of potential agreement for a cessation of hostilities. a corridor for people to actually move out to the ukrainian side at this stage. that seems almost inconceivable. but we're in that area yesterday, relatively speaking and we saw a lot of ukrainian military tanks being moved to and fro. ukrainian soldiers dug in the, in the hedge rose in the areas of countryside around there. we saw helicopter gun ships as well. a lot of very nervous civilians in that area. that area that is being re taken by the ukraine. and so, yeah, a lot of unanswered questions, but obviously ukrainians, determined to re take control of this huge,
