10:07 am
us diplomat has urged israel and palestine to deescalate tensions. lincoln will then had to ramallah to meet president blackmore on bass r. a diplomatic editor. james bass has more arriving at tel aviv airport. the u. s. secretary of state is visiting at a time of high tension, but with few expectations us. diplomacy can do anything to help. he spoke about recent violence to take an innocent life and an act of terrorism is always a heinous crime. but to target people outside their place of worship is especially shocking. a reference to the death of 7 israelis near a synagogue at an east jerusalem settlement on thursday. it's notable he spoke about incidence in which his rallies died, but didn't mention the raid jeanine refugee camp last thursday, a day on which 10 palestinians were killed. ah, before secretary blinkin got here,
10:08 am
there was another death, a palestinian man shot dead by israeli forces as he drove his car in the city of hebron. mister blinkin has met benjamin netanyahu many times before, but this is the 1st meeting since he became head of israel's most right wing government. ever. the secretary of state said there must be a future where israelis and palestinians can live peacefully side by side. we continue to believe that the best way to achieve it is through preserving and then realizing the vision of 2 states. as i said, of the prime minister. anything that moves us away from that vision is in our judgment detrimental to israel's long term security. and it's long term identity as a jewish and democratic state. but the reality is that mister netanyahu in his key ministers didn't support the idea of a 2 state solution. he didn't mention palestinians once, and instead focused on the threat from iran, most of the international community have seen the true face of iran. they've seen
10:09 am
the barbarism of this regime against its own people. they've seen how it exports aggression. beyond its border and beyond the middle east. and i think there is a common consensus that this regime must not acquire nuclear weapons. all are bring in our diplomatic editor. james base is joining us on wester islam. so what's on the agenda for today, james? well, those meetings with israeli officials continue right now. a ceo of galant, who is the minister of defense, not actually at the ministry of defense cause as in tel aviv, but here in jerusalem in a hotel. and i think you're going to see pretty much what, what you saw in public, which is very friendly talk of alliance and friendship behind the scenes, of course, on the very central issue of the international community, which is a 2 state solution. you have real difference because the secretary blinking again, is talking about that that's been the international communities position for
10:10 am
decades and you have this far right government in israel. that doesn't believe in a 2 state solution. that's very, very clear from comments made by the key members of the netanyahu cabinet. he also has a meeting coming up with yellow p. your, remember he's the former prime minister of israel and addition to the tension we have here. the violence we've seen recently. there's also, we mean israel, a big growl going all know, would judicial reform, the new government want to rein in the judges and limit the power of the courts. and that some say this threatens the rule of law in israel, and of course the backdrop for it is the prime minister. netanyahu is own legal trouble and ongoing legal cases. but 3 and a half hours from now set contrib lincoln will have left jerusalem and crossed into the west bank to ramallah. a meeting with mahmoud abbas the president of the policy new authority. again, there i from the comments we've seen very clear comments of from secretary clinton
10:11 am
. i don't think we're going to see any change to the biden administration's policy, the by the administration to be very reluctant to get involved in any effort to try and bring the 2 sides together with proper negotiations. that's not where they wanted to go. they've not wanted to waste too much energy on this conflict. they are focused elsewhere in that foreign policy agenda, particularly on the war and ukraine. thank you so much. james bass reporting from lester is still m the u. s. defense secretary lloyd austin has arrived in south korea for a 2 day trip to meet with his south korean counterparts. so they're set to discuss us in south korea's defense cooperation and souls. worries over north korea is expanding nuclear arsenal. pyongyang carried out a record number of missile tests last year. 3 emergency medical responders have been fired in the u. s. city of memphis. following the death of an unarmed blackman at the hands of police, they've been accused of failing to conduct a proper medical assessment and adequate patient care to tie re,
10:12 am
nichols. 5 officers have already been dismissed for beating him during a traffic stop. the 29 year old died 3 days later off his injuries. gabriel elizondo has more from memphis, just a warning. you may find some of the images in his report disturbing. well, yeah, this investigation is very much continuing here in memphis. officials say that they are still in the early stages of it and more charges could be pressed against officials or people that were involved in this, in terms of these 3 new people that have been fired. they were part of the fire department and 2 of the 3 were emergency medical technicians or paramedics and the other was an ambulance, or fire truck driver that was with them. they were fired, according to officials here, because as part of the investigation, they were some of the 1st responders that arrived at the scene. after tyree
10:13 am
nichols laid on the ground helpless after he had been beaten for several minutes by those 5 police officers, all of whom have been fired and are now facing criminal charges. the fire department says they were fired because they did not render aid quick enough to tyree nichols as he laid their essentially fighting for his life. not only that, but the police department as well, has said another officer involved other than the 5 that have been fired, has been placed on administrative leave. while this investigation continues, this particular officer was one of the 1st that pulled over tyree nichols in what they initially said was a traffic stop that led to him, fleeing from the scene after being beaten there, and then beaten later at another scene. so this is very much
10:14 am
a wide ranging investigation, and the officials here that are investigator are casting their net white and far to figure out who all was involved and how they will be punished. stella had on our 0 look at the impact, the coo and in suing violence, has had on children in me and mar. pond, hockey enthusiasts. hope global warming won't affect their beloved game ah, in depth analysis of the days headlines from around the world. if i write extremely, there is real and need to be tackled as soon as possible. frank assessments, your guy has failed. it's time to back in you julio. that is why you get to get out of the minute over by those dialect and use how big eat up informed opinions, booze, and pun, really lose your position or the dorky disappointment. insight story on al jazeera

10:17 am
international monetary fund says the global economic outlook is less gloomy than it was in october. it's released an update to the outlook which finds fewer economic storm clouds on the global horizon. the i m f has slightly raised its global growth forecast at 2.9 percent due to unexpected spending in the u. s. and in europe, as well as the reopening of china's economy and an easing of energy costs. it's also found that inflation is starting to decline in the face of higher interest rates, calling the news encouraging. but the news isn't all goods. china's recovery could stall due to possible future cove with waves, and there's also the danger of an escalation of the war and ukraine, which would further do stabilize energy and food markets. for mr. miller reports from johannesburg about how some african countries are asking the i m f for loans. while south africa's economy is under stress, it's relied far less on the international monetary fund than other african
10:18 am
countries. so africa's historic, he had an ideological aversion to i, m f, loans and it can raise local funding and finance because of its sophisticated capital markets, which some other african states may not have. my condom is say, it's unlikely south africa will need the i'm if any time soon. that's also despite a south africa suffering with power, the power utility is gone, has $26000000000.00 worth of debt and he's struggling to supply power. but the is an exception. south africa receive $4300000000.00 from the i've. i am if, as emergency support during the global pandemic in countries like sam bin was in beak of also recently turned to the i'm if assistance especially of the china tightened it's tanks making the i m f. the preferred option, zambia though was the 1st african country to default on its i'm if loan to, to it's worsening economic situation during the global pent, they make ultimately forcing zambia to restructure 8 states of $52.00 of africa's
10:19 am
54 nations bar from the i missed the last 3 years and economic downturn, worsening debt, then created the greater demand for assistance in 2020. i meant assistance to low income countries such to $13000000000.00, compared to an average of $2000000000.00 per year, and that was before covert. let's talk about the report and bring in daniel lee. he's a division chief in the i m f research department. he's joining via skype from singapore . welcome to al jazeera, so the i m. f, provis upwards it's global growth projections for the year from the previous forecast. back in october, what was it that made the difference? well, yes, we are seeing of slow down in 2023, but it's not as lumet, gloomy as we thought. we revised the growth rate for 2023 up by about a quote, a percentage point. china's unexpectedly, rapid reopening is
10:20 am
a major contributor to that. china as growth is going from 3 percent to 2020 to 5.2 percent in our focus for 2023. and that has ripple effects for the rest of the world given how china trade. so closely is also been reason to revise upwards our focus because the unexpected resilience in the us, the euro area and other countries as consumers of going out and spending even more from those savings they've accumulated during the demick. so it's less gloomy, outlook, but 2023 is still going to be the, the year of a slow down. right. and in terms of inflation, it's still well above the levels that we saw, at least before the coven, 1900 pandemic. you do expect it to decline to 6.6 percent this year from 8.8 percent in 2022. when you're back to inflation, to get to sort of pre pandemic levels. well,
10:21 am
in 2023, this is the year where inflation really comes down globally. in fact, we think that globally, inflation already peaked in the late to 2020, to 80 percent of, of 190 countries for which we do forecasts likely to see lower inflation in 2023 and even lower in 2024. but even in 2024, for 80 percent of the countries inflation will be higher than it was before this surge above in inflation targets. and it's not until 2025. and beyond that we get closer to target levels and it's coming through a painful process of tightening monetary policy, slow growth, rising unemployment, as well as food in energy prices finally coming down from the heights. and you also, the report points out a couple of stumbling blocks and potential negatives, for example, the war and ukraine. and if that continues to go on, talk to us about those and what impact that could have on this somewhat hopeful
10:22 am
outlook, right? the escalation, if it were to happen in the war, and ukraine would have a huge impact on food, fertilizer, and fuel. if we could see another surgeon inflation as a result. on top of that, there's a risk to inflation from china's very rapid growth. it could lead to more demand, it will lead to more demand for oil liquified natural gas. and it's that comes together with a cold winter in europe and an escalation in the war. we could see a real reversal of this kind innovation. that's something that we're concerned about, but it's not a big thing for us. thank you so much, daniel lee, for joining us. singapore. thanks living conditions for people inside me and
