8:02 am
a child, and a rubbish collector. it was a symbolic gesture. they shared the task of bestowing lulu the presidential sash, in lieu of outgoing presidential bulls. fernando who refused to recognize his successor. well that it was, i above 2, we will use the weapons that our adversaries 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 doused them with water to help overcome heat and exhaustion. many like the piano and avid yenna had arrived before dawn. hello, hello. you've been waiting for for years for democracy, for the prison in people to eat and have jobs. lose 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, o 8 kilometers from the palace. fierce opponents camped near a military barracks, refusing to recognize their left during president. they've out a continue resisting lula, one by a very small margin in a bitterly fought election yell. oh, but his supporters are overjoyed. eula himself was overcome with emotion. you spoke of ending hunger among the poor nap portables. a whole invoice lines of people at the doors, a boot to 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. luna is promising to reinstate. most of the social programs had made him so popular during his 1st 2 terms. he has a woman from just really high expectations amongst brazilians,
8:04 am
and that's always dangerous because their expectations that he may not be able to meet as powerful opponents, led by former president will. so nato are determined to forward his government at every turn. leading the new president. little time to celebrate. c and human al jazeera brazilian. but one of his campaign promises was to take action on the amazon rain forest climate scientists of nobel laureate colors. nobody told out there or the new president has a right policies to stop deforestation for president bush auto through all his political career. he always. ready defends mobile development, which would see the different people, the local communities, and that the amazon forest as enemies are economic development. he wants to get rid of the forest replaced by pastures by my knee. i think, you know,
8:05 am
person who has the, the, the there right proposals to stop that. the destruction of brazil has about 1600000 square kilometers in careful wrenches and lula, saddler, $300000.00 per 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 moolah 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 then person bilmar 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 the actions, the, the amazon,
8:06 am
but very optimistic. they're actually in 4 years in his term as per the deforestation rates will reduce to close to 0. international monetary france as 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. the m. f blames a single, tiny slow down of activity in the united states in europe and in china. and they're feeling the effects of the war and ukraine inflation, high fuel costs and rising interest rate. they keep prices from the center for economics in business research in london and explains the headwinds. the global economy is facing. that had been the expectation that perhaps was the removal of coverage restrictions. china would reemerge if you like, and reunited with the rest of the world's 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,
8:07 am
is that they're going to be problems. because of course, covered the spreading and the, there's the question of course, of traveling to the rest of the world by us, sorry, by 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 the growth in world trade will slow down to just one percent. now, one percent growth in trade means a low. so those are countries that depend on it in the developing world as well, are going to suffer from this. this is one of the slowest growth race that we have seen. and of course we had covered about since the development since coverage with easing on restrictions. that is a pretty poor outcome to have in 2023. so i think that's gonna slow down every 1000000000 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 gonna carry on. what we seniors,
8:08 am
energy prices slowing down. depends of course lambs, he chime in the next few months, was in gas prices being very substantial. reduce was in food prices internationally coming down as well. it takes a bit of time until 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. ah, ukrainian authorities say russia has hits important infrastructure in its latest drone the time on the capital cave in the surrounding region. earlier russia and ukraine accused each other, a bombing civilian areas. on new year's eve, russian strikes, hit holmes in a hotel and keep kimmy at least one person. moscow says it was targeting drone factories. low april. again, it is okay. i wish you health dear ukrainians. new year, new day, $45.00 shy heads were shut down on the 1st night of the year. i thank our air forces, pilots, antea craft warriors,
8:09 am
gratitude to the air defense of our ground forces for another 12 down iranian drones. our sense of unity, authenticity, life itself, all those contrast dramatically with the fear that prevails in russia. they are afraid you can feel it, and they are right to be afraid, because they are losing drones. missiles, anything else will not help them? because we are together and they add together only with fear. and they will not take away a single year from ukraine. that will not take away our independence. is it going to come out with this yellow throat on december 31st, the armed forces of the russian federation carried out a strike with high precision long range air launched weapons at the facilities. the military industrial complex of ukraine evolved in the manufacture of combat. drones used to carry up terrorist attacks against the russian federation of storage areas and attack u. v launch sites were also hit plans by the key regime to carry out these attacks

8:11 am
doing. so most of what we hear a lot of 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 of this year and opposition, you will get conflicting reports. so this is retained, this isn't, there's nothing new, it's 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 had to buy benjamin that to sigma probably to many different people, the iranians, the arabs, their syrians, the russians, everybody that, that israel is going to maintain this policy of striking any target that it things as a danger to its own securities. correlations, prime minister has hailed the countries adoption of the euro as an historic moment on sunday, the balkan nation also entered the world's biggest possible free travels and the full integration with the european union comes nearly 10 years. after joined the
