host dissects the media. we don't cover the news, we cover the way the news is covered. i just did as a country with high poverty rates, with inequality. and these are here. it is not an exception. many of the footballers in this country come from poor areas such as this one is many of the members of argentina, national team come from places such as this one where the football field do not have to rush. but the toil, just play one that you can see right here we've been talking to some of the children that live in this place. and they say that they would love to follow the steps of your tell missy, until the maria and other members of the national team. ah, this is al jazeera ah.

hello, there am norah kyle. this is the news our live from doha. coming up in the next 60 minutes, ukraine's interior minister, his deputy and 12 others are killed in a helicopter crash nick, he smalley government launches the 2nd phase of its military offensive against the armed group. i'll show bob, dean facts. when, when just when filipino nobel laureate journalists maria resar is acquitted of tax evasion charges in a case seen as a win for media freedoms plus merced as in england strike for a 2nd time. and as many months, the government warns of hospital disruptions on his foot. rafael madero says he's failing, mentally destroyed off the his defeats at the australian open. the defending

champion, hampered by injury throughout his 2nd round los nope. we begin this news hour in ukraine where a helicopter crash has killed 14 people. it happened on the outskirts of the capital in the town of bravery, and amongst the dead countries, interior minister, dennis mont, starsky and 2 other top officials, one child was also killed as the helicopter crashed right next to a preschool. from william, put julie judicial 3, we just heard an explosion. we ran out my daughter ran to get my grand daughter, who goes to the nursery. we took her, everything was on fire over the atmosphere. nicola, did our correspondent natasha buckner reports from the scene of the crash? well, we've been walking around the perimeter of the kindergarten and what we've seen is some of the wreckage of this helicopter, scattered around the playground next to,

you know, children's flights part of the building has been destroyed, possibly completely black and still a smouldering as emergency workers with air at the scene, the window is below now, those windows of the classrooms of the kindergarten and all around us. people are coming out to see what's happened because his kindergarten is right in the center of a residential area. it is surrounded by a palmer blocks. we spoken to people who were there when they telecom clash, they said they were an enormous fire, lots of noise. they saw people running away from the scenes, panicking, screaming, crying some woman clutching her child. another person for someone's clothes on fire . so really shocking and disturbing people trying to do the fact that the interior minister was killed in this crush should just be just in their neighborhood on the doorstep. but also the fact that so many others died. well, it's

a show you where exactly this crash happened. the helicopter came down in a town to the east of keys called rosari interior minister, and the officials were on their way to inspect the front lines in the east ukrainian st. security service said it was following several possible causes for the crash, which included sabotage, as well as a technical malfunction or breach of flight rules. frank ledge as a senior electra in military strategy and law at the university of portsmouth and joins us now live from oxford to the cause of this classifying because as get a know just how feasible is it? that was, it was simply a very unfortunate accident. well, good afternoon, laura. the investigation's going to go on and they'll take some weeks. it's probably just worth pointing out that it is now january in in ukraine. this is north and ukraine. the weather was foggy. this morning. it is likely and i would

think wise for helicopter that the helicopter was flying low and flying low in the fog, trying to take advantage of what pilots call club ground clatter. so they're not at risk of anti aircraft missiles. those are all factors which may well have played into this and we will find out a few weeks whether that's the case. but it was not the most favorable of flying circumstance such say that it seems, or an awful lot of unfair officials on board, including many bill from one ministry. should that be looked at in the ukraine. well, what might my viewers? yes, i would think that before any flight, there would have been a risk assessment and decisions made as to whether it were the risk justified the return. we don't know what they were going to do. there's always a danger in flying key staff in one air frame. so for example, our and, and it is,

or i suppose it's topical in one way that the british world family for example, never travel together, nor the key figures ever travel together on aircraft. british military had most of its military intelligence staff or senior staff killed in one single helicopter accident 994. so, i mean, there's plenty of examples of this, but yeah, it's, it's, it's, it's a, it's not good practice to do that, especially for a country at war and the interior ministry being heavily involved in that war effort. this is the interior minister who has been killed in this case. the impact of this will go right to the heart and ukrainian government went at oh, it does. and mr. mona steer ski is a very well known politician, a popular politician. he was a great support for an bastion for an old friend, i think,

or at least political friend of president zalinski sits a personal blow to the government. but also i think to many of the people he had his power based on these to the country and was a very, a very significant figure. so it's a big blow to them today. but you know, it's war time these things happen or no one to replace or so patch present don't sentence good. so i came, frankly, addressed at thank you very much taking the time to join us that from oxford when a close like you know, well, that crash came as russian president vladimir putin insisted his invasion of ukraine was intended to stop decades of conflict between the 2 countries with all good european law group we endured for a long time. i tried to reach an agreement for a long time, but as it turns out now we were just duped and cheated us. that was, this is not the 1st time this has happened to, i mean you, however, we feel we have done our best to resolve the situation by peaceful means. it has now become clear that this was the, by definition you will impossible. now it's just that the enemy was preparing to

turn this whole conflict into an acute and hot phase. i repeat, we had no choice but to do what we are doing now. and russians foreign minister has hit out at the u. s. and the year for their involvement in ukraine say, what's happened as a result of a hybrid war, sag allow for all that says the crisis began way before the outbreak of the war. last february, his beach was part of a review of russia's foreign policy. and the hash him has more from moscow. so again, love rob's best conference today was an attempt to put the whole war and the whole war into the context of the russian west and confrontation as he described it. he even used the term, the final solution. when he was describing the us led coalition, as he described, that's trying to find the solution for the russian questions. he also

compared the u. s. and weston attack on under and russia. he said to napoleon and hitler. so it was like more into a historical context then he went into some detail with respect to negotiations with ukraine, saying that russia is open to the ations. however, it needs some solid points to stand on. also, he mentioned the meeting between the head self intelligence in russia and the u. s . and said that this happened when the president biden's request also went to address the issue of the sanctions on russia. said that his country is working on creating and enhancing some new supply chains in order to avoid the west and interruptions of spring and richard whites. he's expert on russia at with got global consultants in joins us now from washington. d. c. would you make of

president putin and 2nd law for comments? well, conduct, why it was not being new. we are the for some mixed up gumbo conspiracy that 1st the talked about the well you lead, find the world the world. and then he talked about, as your father said that, you know, the, you asked is, i'm to destroy the soviet union, the russia, the way the 3rd 5 is for the soviet union and using control over nato to saw the european countries the band it well. and then you compound our, of the european americans to do the same in asia and to confront china. i mean, it was, this is not new. it's very disturbing that the rational lead, thanks this way, but there is not, i think, you know,

there's that it's really hard to break some wine about this kind of provision of the world. 11 is which audience playing to and, and just how successful ross of leadership is in, reframe in the context of this war. right. so we are, this is ms hard this for the past year. i actually heard that and, and many conversations with russian diplomats in so long for that putting in russia. so they either believe it or they, it's prudent for them to believe that because it says the view that is being pushed on the top about how the world works and how russia threatens, you are perhaps correct. there are probably somebody in the range groups in europe and north america, perhaps more wildly rooted groups in, in africa. latin american asia may believe the time of communication and

information campaign. and canadian, resonates with anton cologne and fi western knows them and, and so on. so, but it's difficult to, gosh, those talk of relations between moscow and bay j. u, as in boston to native as previously said that the 2 sides sharing a tool kit to undermine nato. how much of a concern should this be? well, the, the, the growing alignment between china and russia is unprecedented in recent history. it varies a lot by region. so it's broader in central asia and east asia than it is in europe. we've seen, we're trying to not really doing much in the ukraine chain campaign besides supporting russian information campaigns. and some diplomatic support doesn't appear to be active very much at all in the middle east, latin america. and it varies a lot,

bye bye bye function. so it's more important militarily and, and, and in the energy field than it is for it's house that society love, but it is major concern. that's something that is dominating many of the think tank and pentagon and government studies and thinking about future complex. and even if one site doesn't join what the other are, we still have to manage potential threats from them. so it is a major concerns for united states and it's allies, and i think will become increasingly selling years, which rise a great speak to and get your expertise here on out there. thanks very much for joining us. well, has plenty more. stella had hair on this news, our including ah anger, overt spiraling inflation, and low salaries fills onto the streets of venezuela. a previous

verdict is upheld in japan over who is responsible for the fukushima nuclear power plant disaster, and transport. liverpool get back to winning wage in the english f a cup. and he's here with us story. ah, a somali president hassan shake, mahmud has announced the 2nd phase of an operation against al. sure. bob, the country, the allies tech here, and the us will be backing the offensive to liberate areas under the fighters. control are come web joins us from nairobi. america. tell us what we know about this offensive will since president has shaken moved to office in may last year, the west and back government to somalia has stepped up in the fight against the group pound survive. and the last 6 months. similarly,

national forces fighting alongside community militia who can give it a munition by the government have taken control of towns and cities in central somalia that have been controlled by officer bob for most of the last 15 years. the us and tech year, we've been supporting these missions. we've drones and we've training people in mobile should have told us i can hear the drones taking off from the airport almost every morning. i'll show bob's responded by increasing a suicide attack on government targets and the government has in terms funded by significantly increasing security in the capital market issue where people have told us that at the checkpoint now every last took took it being such a much greater level of thoroughness that have been seen, those security checks when passed, and now the president has said that the 2nd stage of this offensive will begin in somali is south west states. so what we expect then, the days and weeks ahead,

the somali national armed forces to be launching attacks against about strongholds in that part of the country. shap has been present across somalia into various when this waxed and waned of its strength over the years. what the current situation was, the current status the success is reported by the government. that is allies suggest not as strong as it was just this time a year ago. but the 1st very prominence in 2007. it said that it was fighting against westlan imperialism, and against the occupation of the time since then in 2011 the united states in the you paid for east african soldiers from uganda, kenya, burn dee, and other countries go into somalia, fight the group under the banner of an african union, united nations force,

those foreign forces had some success in pushing out about out of towns and cities . but often they didn't manage to keep control of those towns and cities or just ended up with a single fortified base around the field or the groups still controlled ways of the countryside and to continue to launch attacks beyond those sorts aside perimeters. now what different this time that it's somali soldiers fighting the group and community militia, the community members themselves have turned against the group that still big questions remain. will the government uninstalled to be able to keep control of those towns that it taken and will they be able to control the sways the country side and coastline between those town cities as well? ok, malcolm, i bring the latest from about somalia, thanks very much. now of course in the philippines has acquitted nobel prize, winning journalist maria rata of tax evasion,

charges ref still phases. 3 other criminal cases which are under appeal. but as barnaby low reports from manila, the fight isn't over. it's an image you would have imagined a year ago for the bell piece price recipient. the philippine journalist marissa raising her arms in victory could de fax, when truce, when justice wins. it's a stark contrast from years of defeat in the court of law. and at times in the court of public opinion, reza and her news outlet grappler had been the subject of attacks on line and by former president would be good to 30. but on wednesday, she was acquitted on 4 counts of tax evasion and filing inaccurate returns. these charges, as you know, were politically motivated. so this accredo is not

just for rattler. it is for every filipino who has ever been i justly accuse. reza sized french, you may coop, you a journalist who has been detained for nearly 3 years for possession of firearms, centera financing and layla. dina, the former senator says to turn their fabricated drug charges against her winning 4 cases at once, offers both vindication and relief for maria, theresa and grappler, after losing consecutive legal battles, a vindication for them. and for all other filipino journalists, but the bd landscaping, the philippines from east volatile rambler, still faces closure after the security and exchange commission revoked its operating license. and russia could end up in prison if the supreme court upholds her cyber libel conviction. the country's largest news network, a, b s c b, n, can't broadcast on free to air

t v. i think the chilling effect will always be there. it goes. i mean, it took a lot of time for that to sent in. so it, it won't go away with just one day. are we the, is just one case? and definitely knowing that miss hill, if you find a case if you, if you stand your ground, but you have a chance of finding ross, i was back at work immediately after her acquittal rattler, journalists chasing stories which renewed hope that freedom of the press is of value still cherished by many filipinos. barnaby low al jazeera manila nurses and the united kingdom of pressing on with our 2nd strike and as many months demanding higher pay as the cost of living sause patients have been wont to expect disruption to health care services on wednesday and thursday. and his simmons is at that protest in london, the government dusty ball play, the health secretary has said good, then demanding money. that is really meant for patients that it's like get more

money that going to damage the health service even more. now with me here is be joy, sebastian, your critical can us right in the front line. tell me how much do you need more money and what is the level of pressure right now? it's not just about money and pay. it's actually one of the reasons why nelson levy and it just at the moment em, off of the pandemic, vanderbeek actually destroyed nozzles, physical and mental health. so nozzles are not able to like in a stretch estimate as they used to do in the past. so they are 40 or partially leaving and it just and some of them leaving the country and some of them leaving full private agency and private hospitals. so therefore, we are lacking an expedient analysis working in and it just as a result, we are working with a less expedient workforce. i'm one of the feed analysis and i'm seeing resignation . let us we tell same host of leaving crisis mentioned in there. so people who

cannot afford to stay in and it just with this level of b. so this is pulsing delays in k at missions restored this in treatment. so this is forcing lies and i'm doing this for my wife, my child, and my community and my friends. and for everyone who is out there today, demanding this from the government because we love and it was, and we want to em, this situation to change. so m, previously before the brand, i may have used to do extra 5th to compensate for the low to be just systematically taken away from us over the last 12 years. but now we cannot do that because we simply cannot have that physical and mental ability to do that. public sector workers and pensions and venezuela have marched in several city to demand better salaries as the government struggles to fight soaring inflation,

indian se wages haven't risen in line. the cost of living trays bo reports on the streets to demand a pay rise in a country that struggling with $1.00 of the highest inflation rates in the world. venice will and teachers and members of other unions say the government needs to act immediately to increase their wages. oh my god, him in israel, la jolla, a teacher in venezuela to day or in 71015 in 20 u. s. dollars a month. and those who make between $20.00 and $25.00 are earning a partial salary. why do i say partial salary? because it's only enough to buy half a carton of eggs, half a kill of meat. we don't have a salary to survive on the march to the prosecutor's office in correct us to make themselves heard last year when it's will it inflation rate was more than 300 percent. according to unofficial estimates. these people say they haven't received

a salary increase since march 2022. 0, to day. not only teachers, but all public servants are scraping by president madura. this is not a lie. this is reality. we're eating chicken feet and chicken next while you, you scoundrel, eat at the best restaurants bomb. okay. bye bye. ah nicholas. my lose government has been trying to reduce public spending and race taxes to lift venezuela out of the hyperinflation. no. but has forced more than 7000000 people to leave the country in recent years. the government is struggling with us sanctions in 2019. it relaxed private sector regulations to allow more foreign currency and flows. while some industries have benefited, millions continue to struggle. precedent mother would have blamed the us for the current economic situation. volcano less look for common destiny for venezuela, a common goal,

and this must be to say in one united voice enough with the sanctions job. i didn't kaufman to lift all the criminal functions against the republic of venezuela. enough of these criminal sanctions people here say it's not just sanctions that are hurting them, but also the government and handling of the economy. and that's why they say they will continue to protest until their demands are met. that is several of the theda, a team of experts from the french manufacturer of an aircraft that crashed in the pool have arrived, has arrived in the site. while the receipts have completed autopsies of the 22 bodies that have been identified by relatives of the remaining victims, a still waiting for your opinion. delegation is occupied east jerusalem to visit the alex a mosque compound. they support jordan's continued guardianship of the most holy site. and fears israel's new far right government will try to take control of the compound and wrong. com is that this is been described

as a solidarity visit where they are the ones who are in charge of a v alex are most compelled. now the walk for actually jordanian or the status quo, the compound is always been that it has been run by the jordanians. it has been the center of controversy in recent days. the jordanian bassett was actually turned away from a visit here just yesterday. ah, because he hadn't got permission from the israeli police or was some pushing and shoving going on with a delegation that was here. eventually he was allowed into the mosque. me did visit, but they the jordanians were very clear. they don't need is really police permission to go into the companion can to see the police guys all heard that now the you delegation, like i say, they had to pay a solidarity visit to the jordanian walks and to discuss the events of recent news, which includes in the last 2 weeks, the visit of it, the mar ben givers,

a v i national security minister, who's actually effectively ensure the police force who came here. that's what that visit sparked an enormous amount of controversy, including criticism from the european union. so i had hair on out his era, prosecutors in brazil present the 1st charges against dozens of supporters of the former president, the storming the nation seats of power endure is poised to become the world's most populous nation. we look at how the growing numbers could boost its economy. and in sports, hosts, algeria have been in action of the african nations championship where teams have targeting a sports in the quarter finals. ah . hello there. it's

a stormy story for the northern half of south america. we want warnings out for intense thunderstorms, in ecuador, as well as northern parts of columbia. and the rain continues. as you can see, rushing down through peru and bolivia with some intense force to come from northern areas of brazil, we could see 60 millimeters in 24 hours. and that could lead to some flooding the heavier rain as well effecting french diana. but further south of this, it is a much clearer picture, lots of heat coming in for northern parts of argentina, paraguay, and uruguay. and thunderstorms, however, will rush through one of sarah's bringing some west to whether the temperature dipping down here. now as we move to central america, we've had very cold weather effect parts of the caribbean like cuba. but the heat is coming back in temperatures on the up here largely quiet picture. just a rush of showers pulling into coastal areas of under us and nicaragua, for mexico. we've had some intense cold sweep the north west that's going to spread its way east, knocking the temperature down in monterey. and that's thanks for wind to stolen

that's strengthening across central parts of the us. we are going to the a rash of severe thunderstorms sweep across the deep south. we could possibly see some flooding and maybe tornadoes from that system. ah, the in depth analysis of the days headlines from around the world to try right extreme is there is real and need to be tackled as soon as possible informed opinions. why is the c o position concerned about this much more between turkey and a appointment frank assessments? you know, that was a joke about the interim government that it's not in for him, nor does it got inside story on al jazeera. ah,

with oh the ah. ah, again, you're watching algebra, his reminder of our top stories this hour. at least 14 people, including ukraine's interior minister and his deputy have been killed in a helicopter crash. quaint capital, keen, croft fell near a preschool. one child is amongst the dead rushes. pharmacist pro has his house at

the us and you for their involvement in ukraine. i need conference in moscow. he compared west policies towards russia of treatment of the jews. and the philippine court of the quitted nobel laureate john this mario ref on tax evasion, charges rights group say the case is part of a larger crackdown on media freedom that began under the form of present or draco, to test a get more now on our top story, the helicopter crushed in ukraine, wild leaders at the well. the economic form and downfalls of held a moment's silence for the victims, ukraine's 1st lady elaine, as alaska, and i'll be acquainted officials mourned the death as they attended a dialogue session at the congress center. one will show this was today's, another difficult day for all of us. today we have new losses, and that is why i am even more grateful that you are here with us. thank you for

supporting ukraine and our people and for supporting our shared values. in my opinion, is, is really the most important thing, especially that russia has ways to call war against our country, against our people and against humanity. although this form is economical, it seems that we all understand it is fundamentally about values. audit mosque as the james base of m dabbles and james as christ getting a lot of attention there today. yes, absolutely. and very much, i think again, ukraine, the center of attention here are we heard comments just a moment ago from the joe and chancellor or pay his condolences to those who die. we also her earlier on from the nato secretary general yann's sultan burge. he said that putin must know by now that he can't win, but he says we're seeing no sign that put in his anyway, preparing for peace, a chance. the shots when he spoke, he said that germany had done

a great deal over the last year to help ukraine. but as you know, there's a call for germany to do more and germany to send its main battle tank the leopard to battle tank. now that's a tank the germany has sold on to many other nato and e countries and under the export control regulations that exist when you sell the forensics equipment. germany needs to give permission to those other e u. a nato nations to sell to sell or give their lepper 2 tanks to ukraine. so far, germany has resisted that. the german chancellor was asked about it just moments ago and i had to say his skirted over the question, giving a big list of what germany has given, talking about the murder, that's us light tank. but not mentioning the leopard too. he said only we, we want to avoid there being a war between russia and the nato nations. and he said that everything they were doing was interlocked with their allies, particularly the u. s. well,

i can tell you, even if it's interlock to those allies, some of those allies are pretty unhappy that germany is not authorizing the transfer of tanks or allowing them to transfer their own tanks. this was the message from lithuania, foreign minister to, to just the shots on. he spoke to me earlier. it's time to take this step all and her, and really be, be serious about sending, sending assistance to, to ukraine. i'm, i'm sorry if i'm not being extremely diplomatic. by to we're talking about our lives or civilians that are being lost every day. we're talking about thousands of troops who defend their country. this over entity, the territorial integrity. this is their worst war in our european continent. after the 2nd world war, you have to be very serious about us because if we are not than the war will get closer to us. while you heard the 1st lady of ukraine who's been here a divorce in person speaking a short time ago on this program, well in 30 minutes time,

it's the turn of the president of u. k. brain president zalinski is going to be addressing the get gathering here in davis by video link. i'm sure you're going to hear about what happened in keith today that helicopter crash, but also i think you're going to hit some tough words to germany's allies. did the rest of the international community, possibly directly to germany, about what more countries need to do? james, many thanks indeed for the update. and he got more protests to improve, showing no signs of easing demonstrates to the calling for president dina palatez resignation and the release of jailed a former president petro castillo. thousands of people from castillo strongholds and rural areas are expected in lima. this week. i've been violent protests since he was impeached and arrested last month. for sales, prosecutor general has filed the 1st charges against dozens of people accused of storming 3 seats of power earlier this month. charges include staging and attempted coup on again,

a care reports from where dish narrow these images just released by the brazilian congress show how the attack on the capitol unfolded. one week after the inauguration of president. reason as shoot lula, the silver, thousands of supporters of former president j able so narrow stormed the presidential palace congress in the supreme court. in an attempt to overthrow the new government. 1500 people were detained. 9 days after the rampage, the 1st group of suspects have been indicted. 39 defendants have been charged with armed criminal association, violent attempt to subvert brazil's democracy and damage to public property. prosecutors have requested that the defendants be preventively detained in over $7000000.00 of their assets. be frozen. president lula. the silver also dismissed 40 military personnel from the presidential palace. last week,

he accused members of the security forces of helping the rioters variable britain out. maybe point the gentry upon event, many offices were collaborating with writers. when any people in the military police were complicit, many people from the armed forces here inside were complicit. i am convinced that the door of the plan, alto palace was opened so that these people could enter because there was no door that has been broken down. additional writers are expected to be charge, and brazilian authorities are also investigating who helped finance and plan be attack. also now to left brazil before lol as inauguration and his in florida on a diplomatic visa. but with brazil supreme court investigating his role in the riot and growing calls to revoke his us visa, the former president a soon have to return home to face his accusers, monica, an archival jazeera, rio de janeiro. now peace caravan is making its way through jungles of columbia to

help those displaced by decades of conflict. it'll arrive in the area of dagger in the west of the country shortly. oh correspondent, as under romp. yes, he joins us now from there as andre. this is an area where many people a gathering, the sheltering on they to flee violence, give us some context to this story. was absolutely, laura, 1st of all, let me show you where we are right now. what you see there and the people that are sitting at the, at this table are members of the piece, negotiating team of the government of colombia and of the e l and our national liberation army. the last standing again, the a group are in the country that is in the go she in peace negotiations with the government of colo me as we speak in venezuela. they are negotiating. there are a number of things among them, a possible bilateral

a ceasefire. and they have already reached the, the 1st, the humanitarian agreements back in december. and this pisa caravan or humanitarian caravan, is essentially traveling through the territory that they have agreed to intervene 1st and try to bring you many tear and relief to these populations. that for decades have been at the center of the conflict where we are right now is a catholic shelter in the, at the town of a diagram where people of that one community indigenous group are here from a western a columbia has their fled, the violence now over a year ago, and they're talking to these that at delegates that are from the negotiating things and also from civilian organizations, international observers. and they are here to tell them what they need to be able to go back to their ancestral

a territory. what they're asking for is obviously insurance, that if they do go back, they will be safe. that groups such as the year land or other arm groups that operate in this region will stop recruiting their children, for example, or young people to make them part of these armed groups. these are issues that have been going on for many decades in that actually have intensified the recently since the government of columbia sang the peace deal with the far can. that's because the remaining groups have, sorry to fight for these territories, or from here for the next, then 2 to 3 days that the carrier men will travel deeper inside the region to reach those territories and talk to all these people and see what they need. what their needs are, this will then become a report that will be sent to the negotiating teams in venezuela to try and implement to then a plan for humanitarian relief and the return of these communities. okay,

as under empathy, will be following that caravans at may through columbia. thanks very much. indeed. on thursday, french workers will also be on the picket lines. unions on planning. nationwide strikes and protests against the government moves to raise the retirement age to $64.00. then a smith reports from paris. after a long career on his feet, ludovic shop alone is looking forward to the option of spending more time like his customers do. but if the french president gets his way and raises the retirement age to 64, ludovic will have to spend 2 more years behind the bar one on cruder. during the pandemic, the money was found and the biggest french fortunes grew. a 189000000000 euros. i think with this money, we should be able to finance public pensions a little bit. instead of letting that money going to the pockets of people will already have so much. i know what is i on the idea when the government last tried to reform one of your most generous pension systems in 2019,
