u. s. investment over the next 3 years, working in close cooperation with the united states congress. we plan to commit $55000000000.00 in africa to advance the priorities we share and support and to support the agenda. 2063. however, when i asked us, government officials were unable to provide a breakdown of how the figure of $55000000000.00 was arrived at, or how the bite administration intends to get congress to approve that some. the president of the african union welcome the u. s. has renewed commitment to africa called for washington to end its economic sanctions on symbolic way and its plans, the sanction of the african countries via the so called malign russian activities in africa act still working his way through congress. suppose you start gum dysfunction. this bill with its sanctions, which targets the whole continent, is the 1st in international relations. africa is asking why such a bill exist,

and why is africa targeted? at least outwardly, the u. s. has changed its tone at the summit, not publicly hectoring african nations about decisions. washington doesn't agree with that. there is still skepticism about whether anything really is different. the problem isn't what they're saying. they're saying all the right things. the problem is they're not doing anything differently, they're still focusing more on, on, you know, open societies and values rather than on increasing investments and sort of a more concrete approach to encourage him businesses to invest in the region. and even as the biden administration talks of democracy and human rights, it was notable that the only african leader to get an honor guard was the objection president who overseas, a government not noted for its democratic values. the u. s. e.

team. so we will do our best. no, we have a lot of respectful for, for his team. this is wonderful one, but i think the french team is, will preferred. we have some very experience and very young players. and i, i think the mix of both, both is a pull through incredible. and them, i'm very confident that his chemistry and i think this is a team with a lot of willingness generosity. and it will have 68000000 people backing them and, and we, we followed them or problems departments. argentina have been back out on the training fields for the 1st time since they're 75 when the co ship, but the full squad wasn't on show. little messy was one of those. he set out the session like france argentina hoping to let's see, for the 1st time in the history. well, let's look ahead to that follow with our football analyst quite around. go, you know, minutes. he says this will be his last well cut much as he turned in the truth.

asterisk, it's up to him. it's a truth until he doesn't make it the truth to be quite honest. argent, tina will have to go through work of qualifying starting in march. does he want to get committed at this point saying that i would believe not if he's saying that if he already said look, the reason i don't want to go through it is because i don't want to go through the experience of having to have 4 years of preparation, injuries, having to stay fit, and being a 39. grady for, for 6 woke up an unprecedented 6 work up. so there is some truth to that. now he might start feeling the knock in the pings at, at this, at this stage of his career. so it might be, especially when the world cup, i think you'd probably be hanging it up. okay, let's have a look at fraud and everyone's going on about killing him. clearly a key play for the goal is really impress me watching this. told him it has been torn greer's been playing a slightly different role than what we normally say. you see, but he's been a quite revelation because, you know, he's a good player, but he's had what kind of a toilet. but you're right in one asked me he is

a revelation of source because of where he's playing and in his position in this squad, playing a bit deeper back, being able to find inexpensive spaces. they're being opened up by the defensive. so that's very key to the lack of being that kind of mit also being caught more aggressive that will use that is exactly right. that is another player to be looking at to is i don't have you who has been quite impressive in the middle of pitch being able to be that stop or, or that also destroy slash creator going forward. and there is what all the factor here. it's the in tina support is alongside the moroccans cleaning the was passionate amount isn't support about this. i told them and they get a dominate sal stadium on sunday. are they going to be a factor unless france scores in the 1st 5 minutes? i think they will, but obviously, as i mentioned before, if france does take the initiative and does score early on, they could be silent just as much as morocco, although i do have my doubts on that letter of statement i just made because it's very difficult to be able to silence these argentine fans regardless of what the

situation is. the teams going through are going on. thank you very much for that will to south of a 3rd place play off now kind of a shot morocco looking to and the tournament on a high some site. it's not just like a friendly, but there is a bronze medal at the corporation place say that we'll be taking the fixture very seriously is or paper. so i think if you ask this question to the moroccan players, i don't think they will look at this much as a friendly. they're going to fight. they're fighting for their lives. because if you win a medal at a world cup, you become an immortal hero in your country. that's the same thing. we're going to do. 8 of us from russia, understand that feeling of winning a medal at the world cup. and we have a lot of players who haven't experienced that and would love to do that because it's something that will stay with them for the rest of their life. friendly game is a very bad word or friday is the final ref i. i've catalog for 3. 32 is the thing prepared for the laugh matches are what's been a thrilling few weeks of football will have all the build up through the wall. got
