a 3rd of the global economy could be hit by recession, damascus international airport, out of service after an israeli attack, and left to syrian soldiers killed and gun violence still on the rise in the us. we look at why it's proving tough to bring in more controls. ah, to loosen up a little desilva has been sworn in. it's brazil's, the president, thousands witness. the inauguration of the veteran left wing politician, widely known is lula. it is the 3rd time he's held the nation's highest office of post one. after closely fort election, our latin america editor said newman reports now from brasilia. hughley sworn in president niecy, nancy mueller. the silva walked up the ramp of the presidential palace flanked by members of brazil's diverse society, including any digit liter black woman,

a disabled man, a child, and a rubbish collector. it was a symbolic gesture. they shared the task of bestowing luna the presidential sash, in lieu of outgoing president jade bulls. fernando who refused to recognize his successor will that it was i vow both to law. we will use the weapons that our adversary's fear, the most. the truth that prevails are the lies. hope that conquers fair and loved defeats hatred. thousands of supporters from all over brazil had come to witness the return of the man they call the people's president. firemen doubts them with water to help overcome heat and exhaustion. many like the piano and either the anna had arrived before dawn. i have been waiting for for years for democracy, for the prisoner people to eat and have jumps loose. political, come back, is nothing short of extraordinary. in 2018, he was sentenced to a nearly 13 year prison term for corruption. although he was later released after

his sentence was overturned. 08 kilometers from the palace. fiercer ponies camped near a military barracks, refusing to recognize their left wing president. big how to continue resisting lula one by a very small margin in a bitterly fought election yell. oh, but his supporters are overjoyed. unit himself was overcome with emotion. you spoke of ending hunger among the poor nat portables of hope. in both lines of people at the doors, a butcher shops looking for bones to alleviate hunger, while at the same time, others white to buy imported cars and private jets. such a social chasm is an obstacle to the building of a truly just democratic society. blueness, promising to reinstate most of the social programs had made him so popular during his 1st 2 terms. he has a woman from this really high expectations amongst brazilians,

and that's always dangerous because their expectations that he may not be able to meet as powerful opponents, led by former presidential. so nato are determined to thwart his government at every turn, leaving the new president little time to celebrate the sea in human al jazeera brazilian. one of lila's campaign promises was to take action on the amazon rain forest climate scientists and nobel laureate collars, nobody told out 0. the new president has the right policies to stop deforestation. former president bush auto cross his political career. he always defended mobile development, which would see the different people, the local communities, and the amazon forest. as enemies are economic development. he wants to get rid of the forest to replace by pastures. by my mean, i think, you know,

person who has the, the, the, their right proposal to stop that. the destruction brazil has about 1600000 square kilometers in careful wrenches and lula. saddler, 300000 square kilometer high degree pastures. and we can't really move towards a much more sustainable lifecycle farming, getting a lot of these areas for reforestation. so mula has a plan to restore forest emmanuel, these areas and to improve the productivity of livestock. for me. in 12 years, president ruler, 2 terms and this person, duma, before a station reduce 80 percent in the amazon. so they, they know how to do it. it's more difficult now because organized crime really took over the all these actions the, the amazon,

but i was very optimistic there actually in 4 years in his term as part of the deforestation rates were reduced to close to 0. 14 people have died in an attack on a prison in the northern mexican city of waters. the daughter sold by gunman and armored vehicles allowed 24 inmates to escape. 10 of the dead were prison guards. writing also took place inside the prison during the attack. facility holds inmates from several drug cartels. international monetary fun says it expects a 3rd of the global economy to go into recession this year. as director says 2023 will be even tougher than the previous 12 months. i'm f blames at similar chinese slow down of activity in the united states in europe and in china. and the feeling the effects of the war and ukraine inflation, high fuel costs and rising interest rates keep prices from the center for economics and business research in london. and she explains the headwinds. the global

economies facing that had been the expectation that perhaps with the removal of covey 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 what the, methinks is that they're going to be problems. because of course, covert is spreading. and the, there's the question, of course, of traveling to the rest of the world by us story about chinese citizens where they go to the us with the go to the u. k. whether they go to france and italy, and spreading of 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 the growth in world trade will slow down to just one percent. now, one percent growth in trade means lowes 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 eating 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, was in gas prices being very substantially reduce the seen food prices internationally coming down as well. it takes a bit of time and so that's 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 cost. serious army says its main international airport is out of service after an israeli attack. it says 2 miniature personnel were killed in missile strikes, hit parts of southern damascus. it comes 6 months after syria all to flight following is ready strikes on the airport, the damage to runway and a terminal. i mean, cory is a purse gun analyst and he. ready says the latest attack is part of

a long running campaign. these attacks have been going on for years, and serial israeli is, or an attack. sometimes syrian positions, sometimes iranian positions, as they call them and sometimes has his bowl a facility. so iran is bowler, 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 son, 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've had a couple hours ago about how many people died. so from the syrian government or the syrian opposition, you'll get conflicting reports. so this is re team, this is, there's nothing new was 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 yell 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 thanks as a danger to its own security. an attack near the international airport in afghanistan's capitalist killed at least 14 people, 18 were injured. the body of the attacker was found near the scene in cobble i know group has yet claim responsibility. croatians, prime minister, has failed the country's adoption of the euro as an historic moment. on sunday, the balkan nation also entered the world's biggest passport, free travels, a full integration with the european union comes in the 10 years after it joined the blog 70 decker, a poster from soccer, a symbolic moment in the capitol,

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 one. so this buyer tells us she has to, while it's now this i but i said i years me, she will convert the chain. she laughs. i still don't know. we are shown the up. they used to calculate the change my mind, we have this app now. so convert thing is more or less simple. creations are still paying in corners and foreigners are paying in euro's we love the kona more, of course, because it's our currency a linear problem, but other 2 not. i'm not happy about the euro, but it's not a problem for me to convert. i have some corona 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 will be an adjustment for everyone. and it will take time. i ramirez member every

ah. but again, you're watching al jazeera reminder. what top stories this l. i, brazil's new president who loses the nazi alluded to. silver has promised to rebuild the country off to being sworn in front and unprecedented. that he says democracy was the true winner of toyota's election, which he narrowly defeated boston. our international monetary fund says it expects a 3rd of the global economy to go to recession. this year is blaming simultaneous slow down of activity in the united states, europe. and in china and series, army says main international airport is out of service, often israeli attack on southern damascus. it says to military personnel were killed in missiles tribes. france has begun testing travelers from china for cove at 19 and it's urging of the you members to do the same checks being imposed in several countries. after a surge of cases in china, governments are anxious to prevent existing outbreaks from getting worse. and the

largely also due to the fact that the classification of the death has changed its if people die specifically from a respiratory illness, it will be classified as a curve, a death, but other co morbidities elderly who possibly will not technically be listed. the government has moving forward, try to reassure the public that they are just simply focusing now on treatment rather than prevention. that they are increasing id, you bed access to engine tests and other medications. and they've also changed the messaging quite a bit. it's no longer seen as a threatening pneumonia. illness, it's now just called an infection. they say that it is quite large. they expect that people should be individually responsible for the oral health moving forward. you creating, i'll say russia has had important infrastructure and it's late. his drone attacks on the capital of keith and the surrounding region, russia and ukraine accused each other in bombing civilian areas. on new year's eve, russian strikes hit homes in the hotel and keep killing at least one person. moscow

still under water. people are rebuilding as best as they can. but many are angry with the government's response. aid was slow to which remote regions. oh good. have you been with you wanted no houses have fallen down. you don't have teens. we can't shade our children from the sun. how houses have been submerged? i swear to god. there is nothing left. when our belongings had been washed away, we poor our children are sick. they had just sitting near at the height of the flooding, a 3rd of pakistan was under water. 33000000 people were affected. the military and emergency services responded. as did thousands of volunteers, ah, till an estimated 16000000 children lost their homes and schools and were vulnerable to water born disease and malnutrition. in the months since the disaster

outbreaks of cholera, malaria and dang, fever have been reported. this thing requires that we change the ve, i, but any system works, we have to improve our but in the system so that the water can go out. if we don't do that, we won't be able to do anything. additionally, we will of also have to see how we grow across and we, seasoned, we grow them, we have to work on that. then we'd have to have disaster resistance, such as no disaster. so states of emergencies were declared in 19 of the countries 25, the poorest districts pushing about 9000000 people into poverty with an economy already in crisis. before the monsoon season, the government is appealed for more help from the global community. the cameras have left, the waters have not yet subsided. how do we start, even if the water subside? where are we going to mobilize the vast resources in a cash strapped economy to rebuild this country and get people's jobs and

livelihoods back on their feet? and not be further debt burdened. these waters might proceed in a few weeks or months. but climate change is here to stay. our correspondent, the summer binge of 8 visited st province. he says many people there are afraid the world will forget them. even if begotten the green and totally renewable to morrow somehow we will still remain, are very tiny contributors as because we have any contributions to the emissions, all the global emissions, all in one make a difference. so global warming will continue. our glitches will continue to man what's the way forward the way forward is that the, the, the, the big polluters, the big emitters, have to eat, make restitution to the global south. historic loss and damage fund was adopted. that, that you and climate change conference in egypt in november. it aims to compensate

at the time gun control advocates hoped it would be a turning point. surely this would capitalize 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 traditional begun office handy 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, all the 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 mass 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 u. s. gun laws were constitutional. for those fighting gun control, the courts have now become the main weapon to ro, 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 were 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. hope weapons are not for self defense. they're not suited to self defense. they're not used for self defense is about an individual right to self defense outside of the home. it doesn't say that it's about a right to take it on 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, a key bridge connecting columbia and venezuela has fully reopened, ought to be close for my 7 years. it was built to facilitate trade but was never inaugurated because of strained relations. diplomatic ties were caught in 2019 but restored last year. after the election of leftist colombian, president gustavo had through brazilians, had been mourning the past, the appellate of man, widely 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. john john holeman has

more from the city of santos. we all know halley as the global super star for brazil. the one in the yellow shirt who won 3 world 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 rural, 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 was a fantastic team that started to sweep all before them naturally. right in front of the central stadium. i'm looking at it now is a very particular type of brazilian bark with a luncheon, etc. and this one belongs to alamo, and he's such a fan of santos. it is got 14 tattoos of the club, one stamped that to the on his forehead. and i asked him what pele meant to him? relative our mother, i saw pelley 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 to 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 ok. there i am a fan because i admire him. pell is the king of brazilian football. and 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's still full to 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 life. so many of these 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.
