effects of the war and ukraine inflation high fuel costs and rising interest rates . vicky prices from the center for economics and business research in london. and she explains the headwinds that global economies are facing. that had been the expectation that perhaps was the removal of coverage restrictions. china would re merge if you like, and reunited with the rest of the world after the problems that he has had for a number of months now. and all slowing growth. but of course, in the next few months, i think we're, the only thing is that they're going to be problems. because of course, covert the spreading. and the, there's the question of course, of traveling to the rest of the world by us sort of a chinese citizens where they go to the us with the go to the u. k. whether they go to france and italy and spreading or course to many other countries as well. and that's a big issue for china. so over the next few months, we're probably going to see quite a slow down there as well. what they are anticipating is that growth in world trade will slow down to just one percent. now, one percent growth in trade means

a low source of countries that depend on it in the developing world as well, are going to suffer from this. this is one of the slowest growth rates that we have seen and of course we had coverage. but since the development since coverage with using restrictions, that is a pretty poor outcome to have in 2023. so i think that's going to slow down everybody, and that stems took a significant extent from what is happening in the biggest countries in world. but with inflation slowing down with a bit of like it's going to carry on. what we're seeing is energy prices slowing down. depends, of course, what happens in china in the next few months, we've seen gas prices being very substantial, reduce the seen food prices internationally coming down as well. it takes a bit of time until that is reflected for the consumer in what they're paying at the end of the day at the shops. but i think it's coming and i think that's going to be the big positive now series army says the maintenance national airport is out of service after an israeli attack to military personnel were killed in the air strikes on parts of southern damascus. israel had repeatedly bombed talk as to

syria saying they're aimed at iranian back fighters. i, let's speak now to remy corey, who's supanik glen las jones is now from boston. ramey, thanks for joining us today. i say this is the 2nd attack on damascus airport inside 7 months. tell us more about what's behind anything. these attacks have been going on for years and syria, the israelis, or attack, sometimes syrian positions, sometimes iranian positions, as they call them and sometimes has his bottle of facility. so iran, isabel, and syria are very united front of that confronts israel. and israel constantly tries to make it difficult for them to coordinate their activities and arms and ammunition and things of, of that nature. these really is never announced the details of what they're doing. so most of what we hear, including this attack comes from people within syria. and sometimes you have

conflicting reports as we had a couple hours ago about how many people died. so from the syrian government or the syrian opposition, you will get conflicting reports. so this is routine, this is there's nothing new has been going on for years. they've had targets all over syria and they'll keep doing it. the likelihood is that this is driven by the new government headed by benjamin that narrow to signal, probably too many different people, the iranians of the arabs, the syrians, the russians, everybody that, that israel is going to maintain this policy of striking. and he target that it thinks as a danger to its own security, right? routine bits makes life very difficult for syrians, of course. and it's no mean feat heavy. a international apple closed down. what are the impacts economically? do you think on the country o x anomaly? impact is in that particular case is pretty insignificant for public just maybe

a day it will be closed in june. it closed for 2 days when it was attacked, the economy of serious shambles for the, because of the civil war. that's me going on there for, for some years now. so, so this is something that has been going on for years. you know, the important thing here to remember is that the united states government, through the congress passing laws years ago, guarantees that israel will be militarily superior to any combination of foes or enemies around it. any combination, the u. s. guarantees the lizard will be superior to themselves. israel has impunity to carry out attacks anywhere. it wants, essentially in the region. and nobody has been able to stop it. and the russians who are very close allies with syria, fort militarily, and sir to keep the asset regime and power of the russians. israelis have an

understanding that the israelis can attack certain positions in syria, but they should not hinder russian military activities there. so it's, it's a very complex situation because israel has been doing this for years. it hasn't brought any of the long term strategic benefits that it sees either in terms of a piece tree or in terms of its neighbors surrendering to it. that this has been going on for for many, many years and it gets more complex. it's more complicated as time goes on and if i run, we'll have to leave it. give me for jumping. never to we must be fun. thanks very much indeed. remy corey, speaking to in a tight near the international airport in afghanistan, capital is killed at least 14 people. 18 people were injured. the body of the attacker was found near the seni cobble, and no group as yet claims possible. a new year and a new beginning for croatia,

same yield. currency is another one. and i know by my own personal experience, that creations will always remember the 1st time they paid with europe. the 1st time they held the euro coin, mint it with your national own blame the corner. and it's not that simple for many people. for the next few weeks, you could still pay in the old currency the kuna, but the change must now be given in euro's, and that's causing confusion going on. so this buyer tells us she has 2 wallets. now with this i, but i said i only thought she will convert the chain. she laughs. i still don't know. we are shown the up. they used to calculate the change. i'm on, we have this app now. so convert thing is more or less simple creations are still paying in corners and foreigners helping in euro's we love the kona more of course, because it's our currency aluminum problem. but at least you know,

i'm not happy about the euro, but it's not a problem from a to convert. i have some kernel and small euro's and the rest i will take from the cash machine. if it will work, it's total chaos with the ac ems. so it will be an adjustment for everyone, and it will take time, a ramirez member of the pool and curl for 20 countries to adopt the euro and go through this transition. there is no doubt, there will be challenges over the next couple of weeks as creations let go of that currency and gradually go fully europe. stephanie decker, i'll de xerox. i grab still hate hearing out 0 is more government imposed can be 19 checks on travelers from china. we look at the size of outbreaks and other countries. ah. the who's

hole when restrictions are 1st loosened in the beginning of december viruses, the virus infections swept across the city and one local publication says that 70 percent of its respondents said that they had caught the virus in december in the gym. and during that month it was quite gleick, it was a ghost town, even though you were allowed to be out more. so people were staying indoors either because they were unwell themselves old because they were afraid of getting on well . now some time has passed and people are starting to feel like the darkest period is over. i was in a local shopping center in the sally to an area of aging over the weekend. and i was surprised to see how many people there were there. it was busing, many crowds, people are restaurants, shopping, watching movies. and there is a sense of hope and positivity. people are just excited to not have a looming threat of locked down to not have to take a regular part of the test to not have to scan to regular q

seriously that this is dramatic, on the under reporting of not only death, but also infections here in china. and the chinese government itself has admitted that it is difficult to get a, an accurate picture of the total numbers here on the ground. and that's partly because the classification of the curve of death has been changed recently. so you have to have died strictly only from or spirit treat illness. so for example, if a person is elderly or has had other cord morbidities and has passed away, that death is not likely to be strictly listed as a corporate 19 death. but we do know that scientists are saying that they expect at least 800000000 people across the country to catch coke 19 over this winter period . and hundreds of thousands of people possibly to lose their lives of the next few months because of this illness. china, beijing government has moved to reassure the public saying that they are taking a planned scientific approach and that they simply pivoted from focusing on prevention to not focusing on treatment that they are increasing. i see you beds,

access to medications, even medicines, for example, as well as an outage in tests. and they've also changed that message in covet 19 is not pulled a pneumonia illness here. it's now just cold and infection. so they're also trying to say that this is now a mild illness and they're expecting that people to be really individually responsible for their own health. moving forward are extremely, thanks so much for that update. katrina, you, what are you from beijing? ah, he crating the authorities say that russia has hit important infrastructure and its latest drain attacks on the capital cave and the surrounding region. earlier russia and ukraine accused each other of bombing civilian areas on new year's eve, russian strikes, hit holmes in the hotel in cave can be at least one person. moscow says it was talk to dr. archery. the legal again. it's okay. i wish you health dear ukrainians. new

used to carry up terrorist attacks against the russian federation of storage areas and attack u. a v launch sites were also hit plans by the key of regime to carry out these attacks in the near future have been thwarted then about other well pro russia separatists and russia media, se ukraine also carried out machines on new year's eve, the tax in russian controlled parts of jeanette's can the hands reported damage homes, shops and education centers. russian media, recruiting a doctor who says 6 people were killed when a hospital was attack russia's former leader to meet him. every dev has spoken about what he calls new lands, referring to easton, ukrainian territory illegally annexed by russia. he says moscow will always stand up for its people that together. yeah. mr. bay, she doesn't. you would lose him next year. won't be easy. that's russia's enemies will continue to break at him, but they will not succeed. we have become stronger because we are united because truth and victory on our side. everything will be done to ensure that the lives of

millions of residents of our country and its new land are safe and prosperous. we've always defend the rights and freedoms of our people as their language, culture, and religion, and protect the present and future of our homeland. that we can actually say last year was one of the worst record for gun violence in the united states, with nearly 650 mass shootings, states and local authorities have been passing laws, trying to limit the supply and use of firearms for those efforts. and now facing new obstacles as she have returns the report from washington. it's been 10 years since the sandy hook, elementary school shootings, 26 people were shot dead, including 20 children between the ages of 6 and 7. at the time gun control advocates hoped it would be a turning point. surely this would catalyze federal action to limit the sale of assault weapons and high capacity magazines. but the annual national vigils are victims of gun violence in washington dc. a tradition begun office and the hook joe

biden was the 1st president to attend, made it clear he wasn't satisfied with what has been achieved, such as the gun control legislation passed last summer. together, we made some important progress progress. most significant gun law passed in 30 years was still not enough. even the most alden supporters of that law describe it as modest. the key provision was expanding background checks for 18 to 21 year olds before they buy a gun. and the absence of the bipartisan congressional action needed for meaningful gun control legislation. state legislatures have been acting, responding to public outrage following mouse shootings, and then says, using strict regulations. for example, following a high profile mass shooting democrats in virginia passed a raft of gun control legislation. but those efforts have been put into jeopardy following a supreme court ruling last year. the court decreed that only firearm regulations that were part of the historical tradition of the us as gun laws were

constitutional. for those fighting gun control, the courts have now become the main weapon to row back. whatever efforts have been passed legislatively, they say the ruling means if a gun law wasn't on the books on the 18th or 19th century, it isn't constitutional. there are very, very few restrictions, extremely hard to find any kind of restriction back them. and that's what the founding fathers wanted to keep, but lawyers fighting for gun control say, this is a misreading of both the ruling and of history. first, they argue that country to popular perceptions, restrictive gum permit laws were in place by the late 1900 century, around the country. and they feel an assault weapons ban is consistent with the supreme court judgement. weapons are not for self defense. they're not suited to self defense. they're not used for self defense. it's about an individual, right to self defense outside of the home. it doesn't say that it's about a right to take a don and walk into a school and gone down a bunch of kindergartners. so the expectation is that mass shootings will continue

in 2023 hours will bursts of outrage and calls for something to be done. but for now, meaningful gun control remain some way off she ever time. see al jazeera washington at least 10 people have died in a cross should during a new year's eve celebrations in uganda. it happened that a shopping mall in the capital. can paula, as people trying to enter the building after the fireworks display? many of the victims suffocated an investigation is underway. it was such a means to lead me. then he told us that we should go up on which by alex, from the fucking up. then as we were going up, they told us, no, you have to go back. so people have some hydrate. they reached the packing. so the 1st them to come back to the main hall so that fish from up under pressure from don't lead to loss of breath to some, some colleagues of ours. which literally had this the key bridge couldn't in

columbia and venezuela has fully reopened off to being close for my 7 years. it was built to facilitate trade, but was never inaugurated because of strain relations between barbara and the government of the venezuelan lead nicholas madeira, diplomatic ties, would cost him 2019 were restored. last year after the election of leftist, a, columbia president, gustavo petro, brazilians and people around the world to be mourning the death of pele, the man. why, the known as the king of football. he died last week at the age of 82. on monday his coffin will be taken to the club where he made his name to home and his more for the present in the city of santos. we all know pallet's as the global super star for brazil. the one in the yellow shirt who won 3 wo cups, but we here in santa hills, where it really all started for him. when he joined this team in the stadium behind me as a 16 year old, you can see him that he's on the mural. they're on the corner and pele once he

joined this team, helped to make them into something in the sixty's referred to as the fantastic holes. a fantastic team that started to sweep all before them nationally, roy in front of the central stadium. i'm looking at it now is a very particular type of brazilian box with a luncheon, etc. i'm this one belongs to alamo and he's such a fan of sentinels that he's got full team tattoos, of the club, one stunt that to be on his forehead. and i asked him what pele meant to him? better on monday, i saw taylor playing once, and then i never left here. he was a monster in the football field. he came many times to the bar and we'll talk to every one. he was the most humble guy in the world. we spoke to antonio de pass, who we saw because he was interestingly dressed about what pele meant on a global stage and to him. and so for the philip here said you meet our door to bailey open. it i am a sin because i admire him. pell is the king of brazilian football. then he created

the brazilian football and took it to outside. brazil, vicky where frank. okay. it's a real mark of police legacy that even though he retired for the last time 45 years ago, he so well remembered. he still full tough as the king. that's his nickname. here in brazil, but i think he's also for that wait for a lot of people outside of the country. people too young to ever see him play live . so many of his games, not even on video because they were played so long ago. but still he seen as a very particular unique kind of genius. ah, so this is out 0. these are the top stories in brazil's new president louis ignacio new allowed to silva has promised to rebuild the country to be sworn in for an unprecedented 3rd time. he said democracy with the true winner of october's election in which he narrowed a defeated j.
