12:02 am
well come to the news. our switzerland's largest bank u. b. s. is agree to buy its troubled rival credit suisse for $3200000000.00. and a deal backed by the government follows a weekend of emergency talks. both banks will be given a liquidity assistance loan of up to a $110000000000.00 from a swiss central bank. regulators had been pushing for a deal to restore confidence before financial markets open on monday. credit suisse is one of around 30 banks around the world, considered too big to fail. it suffered losses last week after the collapse of us lender, silicon valley bank and signature bank. and the fears of contagion are running high on friday, the liquidity outflows and markets well, activity shows that it was no longer possible to restore the necessary confidence.
12:03 am
and that the swift and stabilizing solution was absolutely necessary. and the solution is a takeover of credit histories by u. b. s. it is supported by the for the rights on still following several meetings with the national bank. we've our regulator or the fit, not waste credit stories, and you'll be us in the country welcomes the stakeholder and is supporting it by guaranteeing the framework conditions necessary for its success out there. as poor brenda has been following these developments from london, it's been a really tumultuous and frantic few days in the international banking sector. pretty much, ever since weapons day when credit suisse was extended, a $54000000000.00 credit line, which it was hoped would keep the bank going. in fact, it's failed in attempts. and last week, credit suisse, we're seeing deposits taken out of its coffers. the rates of some 10000000000 swiss
12:04 am
francs every single day, a real crisis of confidence in the stability of that bank. now the news conference that's taking place on sunday evening has outlined the problems and the options on frankly, they said the takeover by u. b. s. was inevitable and unavoidable. and the idea that this was a bank that was too big to fail has come up again. and again in the news conference, there was a whole raft of senior executives in that use conference. and some of the quotes are as follows. the finance minister saying that the top priority was to protect us 1st financial sector and also switzerland's reputation for international banking. the service president said that they believe that they come up with a very strong solution to a complex situation. and the u. b. s. chairman, who is the person who is going to be helping the new entity coming out with some
12:05 am
very strong, very reassuring quotes. saying that this was an integration as opposed to take care of enormous opportunities. he spoke off that u. b. s will remain rock solid. now the importance of that is to try and reassure investors over making price as an economist and for the u. k. government economic visor as she joined us now via skype. will this emergency deal stem a global crisis of confidence? do you think? i think it suddenly is going to pacify some of the concerns of the markets. have fed a window to see how the market's open tomorrow morning, of course. and he was really important for the space to do this deal as quickly as possible to day before and or the markets can react really. and we'll see whether they're satisfied with that deal. and it does seem to be a good solution or because certainly at the end of the week that just passed,
12:06 am
it looked pretty unlikely that we were going to be getting out of this program without, you know, a lot of losses, perhaps being born by quite a lot of people and of course the shareholders probably will have done will have losses as a result of this. but at least what it means is that deposits are suddenly going to be safe. and that perhaps some of the outflows that were taking place, particularly from the wealth management side of credit, straight away in return. and that will ease some of the pressure. but i think it does suggest that there are problems in the banking sector does suggest that perhaps the sort of changes that we've seen recently, particularly with interest rates going up. so significantly and gone yields going up are a problem for some institutions. but it's quite a street of course, at his own additional ish and tell you with yes, if they'd been having a challenging time anyway. but maybe your cell is more about why these underlying issues in the banking sector surfacing now. well, what has happened, of course,
12:07 am
is that for some time code induced low interest rates, i had encountered a huge amount of expansion of liquidity. and the central banks were involved themselves in quantitative e. things that are putting a lot of money into the system to support the fiscal expansion that was changed from government in order to get the economy moving again off to cove. it well, all that worked quite well for quite some time. and of course luther list of loans were given by let's look for a 2nd and what was going on in the us with some of the smaller banks to some risky investments and low interest rates. and of course, when things changed, interest rates are going up and of course, yields and bonds that many institutions have invested and started going up as well . it meant that there were trying to improve that equipment position by selling some of those bonds. they were incurring losses almost instantly. so although the big banks were using different accounting with dollars use and were really quite super biased, quello, the smaller ones were not, but we did see
12:08 am
a bit of contagious brain spreading across the whole of the us banking sector. just because, for example, one, especially this bank, which was the silicon valley bank, went under and yet what happened is that it is, for example, the credit radio agency downgrade to the entire us banking system. so yes, i think it is an issue. i think the environment we're finding austin is going to be quite tricky. are many financial institutions to i want to get through to tell me like all the regulation and plant down in the office off of the financial crisis of 2008 place to prevent these sort of issues from arising. again, it was and certainly that is the case with the biggest banks. yes, of course british is one of them wasn't really that there was the issue. but yes, thing regulations have been tightened. capital requirements have been tied tense, but quite a lot of the middle sized banks and smaller banks are, are not being caught by this net, if you like. but there is one very positive thing,
12:09 am
but we have to remember given everything that happened today. and also what happened in the u. s. a just last week, which is that in fact, the authorities now are dealing with this much faster than was the case during the financial crisis. so what we've been, oh is that they're not going to wait too long before some of this contagion, if you like, spreads the going to step in and support the system. and i think that's good news should be very reassuring markets. thank you very much. economist vicki price joining us. you ah, we're just a day off to the international criminal court issued an arrest warrant for him rushes president vladimir putin is made a surprise visit to the russian occupied city of mary paul and ukraine. says he, and the daniel squadron was annexed by moscow last may, after being reduced to ruins in the 1st months of russia's invasion, states,
12:10 am
u. v. ad footage of putin driving himself around several districts of this devastated city lay on saturday. though no damage was shown, he visited a playground where he was briefed on reconstruction efforts by his deputy prime minister. fusion was also seen meeting re housed residence and asking them if they light than you neighbourhood. and he was shown restoration walk university in a theater. is, comes a year off to hundreds of people were killed in the bombing of another theatre. and mary paula families were sheltering despite the white children being written in chalk, in russian in front of the building. ukrainian officials are quick to condemn the visit, though with the presidential a tweeting. the criminal always returns to the crime scene, and the murderer of thousands of marable families came to admire. the ruins of the city and graves cynicism and a lack of remorse. it was also this tweet from the defense ministry saying as befits a thief pushing visited ukrainian, merry poll under the cover of night. first it safer. also,
12:11 am
darkness allows him to highlight what he wants to show and keeps the city his army completely destroyed in its few surviving inhabitants away from prying eyes. at the reaction from the government and keith, stephanie decker also has that we're on the story from ukrainian capital. certainly a very strong and defiant p. r. a message. and he flew into crimea the day before to mark 9 years since the annexation of crimea. and then went to mar, pulling a helicopter and drove around the city. the russians issuing picture of lodge may pollution behind the wheel of a car being shown at the city. so i think a certainly a message there that regardless of a 123 countries, now i arresting him if he visits them because of the arrest warrant issued by the international criminal court. he showing that he's very much mobile when it comes to definitely areas that russia has now annexed at the same time. it's also about
12:12 am
a year since a devastating siege on mary paul. it's the 1st time that vladimir putin visits any of the occupied territory since the war in this kind of a more official proper way. a mar, pull, of course, suffered immensely. half the city was a skeleton of itself due to the heavy bombardment. no electricity, no water for months on end. and actually around a year ago, there was the most devastating loss of civilian life. the russian hit a theater where civilians were sheltering and was very difficult at the time to get news out because hardly any journalists were in the city. that's how difficult it was. it transpired months later that hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of civilians had died in that attack. and actually children had been written on the roof of that theatre at the time. amnesty international was saying that this was very much a potential war crime so, so i think to fold the message there, one defiance to the i. c. c. and to, of course, at his visit to
12:13 am
a city that was very much bombarded and rest and suffered under the hands of the russians now saying as his turing that they are looking to rebuild to continue reconstruction. sam green is a director of the democratic resilience at the center for europe in policy analysis and author of cruise in versus the people joins meet, lie via zoom from washington, d. c. so this is the 1st trip, the president of russia is made to the occupied territories of eastern ukraine and a surprise visit. why did he, why did you decide to do this now? wasn't correct and he was in crimea are just a couple of days before that's just a need for this and currently has been occupied ukrainian territory since 2014 i think that you know, he is trying to adjust the optics a little bit. right. we've seen lensky show up in fatigues as close to the front line. as we've seen. president biden show up in q, in the middle of a war zone,
12:14 am
in receipt itself is not directly involved, something that historically unprecedented. and we've seen who speaking from joseph halls in the kremlin and from, from, from protected bunkers underground. but we haven't seen him be willing to get quite this close to, to, to fighting. i think he wanted to, you know, show that he was very much engaged with this. i think he also wanted to help we up this, this narrative of a fight that he is engaged in, in the eyes of the russian people. so aim primarily a domestic audience inside russia also perhaps the message of defiance to his international opponents as he becomes increasingly isolated. well, i mean, this is a very staged manage thing and is very careful about security in particular and sort of plans for just probably will put in place. well before the i c c announced
12:15 am
it's, it's indictment back on friday. and really that makes it difficult for him to have friends around the world to travel around the world. he did boss, you know, officially in the ukraine from ukraine perspective. but i think this really is much more about sending a message at home, an international message or who will come early next week when he does meet with which you didn't think from china in, as you said, a show of defiance. that may be difficult to, to isolate, despite this decision from the international court. and of you mentioned that visit president present has written an article for china's people daily newspaper just ahead of present changing pangs, trip to moscow on monday. i suppose he, it's important for him to make a big deal of this. you know, the partnership with china is very important and perhaps he is looking to get
12:16 am
strengthening military as well as diplomatic support from his chinese ally. what's interesting, the article that say anything about military support and it does, you think you'll probably surprise historians or talks about since result, friendship like a conflict between russia and china. and of course, gone to war on multiple occasions before. but the reality for children is that this, you know, this, this world, he's found himself in where he is isolated from, certainly europe in the united states, where he can't trade all the terms that he used to, where he's now going to have to resist the kinds of pressure that he's getting from things like the i c, c is not terrible without not just support from trying to, but without actually a significant degree of, of investment and, and integration to a certain extent with the chinese economy. right. there's going to have to be much more intensive flows and natural resources out of russia into china. it's going to
12:17 am
have to be much more intensive flows of consumer goods, technology, engineering, goods and services out of china into russia. if the economy is going to be able to stand on its feet for the foreseeable future. and so sending this message that he is inclined to see china as russia is not just the partner of the moment, but really strategic l i. for as long as he is in power, is of vital importance to the survival of his own regime at home. all right, thank you very much from washington, san green. or i should. the 1st minister is presented awards to the ammon involved in the interception of the us drone over the black sea last week. in the 1st known direct military encounter between the 2 sides. since russia launched, it's a war in ukraine last year. the u. s. said russian plains harassed and the drone and sprayed fuel on it for one of them clipped. it's propeller causing it to crash while in international airspace. u. s. officials said the incident showed

12:21 am
invasion of iraq opec 2nd largest oil producer, is still struggling to provide basic public services like power and clean water to its people. political instability and dammit, corruption and security issues of all left the economy and flux from buzzer osama. bon jovi has this report buttress famous italian bridge wasn't here 20 years ago. neither was the main road that leads to busters international stadium. now the streets are peaceful and there is relative, political come in the city and across it all packed up with the chief more than $8000000000.00 a for an investment up to february 2023. we are keen to achieve major projects, and this is all in coordination with the federal government. lots of projects were completed in basra, related to infrastructure services, commercial and tourism sectors. in this oil field is the image noun, which means crazy in arabic. some say that refers to the large amount of oil,
12:22 am
or there's found here in one location, an estimated 38000000000 barrels. the mission field produces 240000 barrels a day for iraq's economy. and production is planned to be expanded to 5 and a half 1000000 barrels per day. in our government says despite obstacles like corruption, red tape and an unstable region invested the lining up. the mainly interested in the countries abundant deposits of gas. but despite its large hydrocarbon resources, iraq imports a 3rd of the gas, it needs for its power stations. nearly $2000000000.00 worth comes from iran, and on a stretch budget, that's the burden. it also spends an estimated $5000000000.00 the unimportant diesel in petrol for the last 20 years. infrastructure such as refineries has not been built to meet demand. the world bank ones, without structural reforms and economic diversification. it all dependence on oil leaves at one level to price volatility and global demand that's left it off
12:23 am
currency struggling against the dollar. and that's not all. and there's no malia and the obvious of other hazard molly behead as estimated by a parliamentary committee. corruption cost around $10000000000.00 a year, around $600000000000.00 have been smuggled out of iraq in the past years. we have to fight against corruption, administration, and financial. there's no real development in the rocky economy. despite that wealth, millions of iraqis struggled to get clean water every day. and every year, thousands of people fall due to waterborne diseases drank drivers and climate change has increased risks of food shortages in impoverished provinces. there aren't enough school buildings or teachers or the lack of medical facilities. iraq, these who can afforded travel abroad for treatment. the poor have no other options as purchasing power roads due to inflation and continued electricity and water shortages. there is a risk of social unrest. recent years,
12:24 am
thousands of people have protested against rising food prices and poverty experts. the current economic plans do not meet people's needs. a promise, infrastructure development for iraqis and muscular, lazy, and walla, which there's no real strategy. all the problems are being passed from one government to another. each fails to complete the previous economic plan. the planning ministries, justine comm, paper development programs don't work because there's no institutional systems in place. i was out of the 2 decades ago. the 1st battles of the iraq war were fought in basra. the city of a 1000000 people was besieged by mindy british forces. cluster munitions were used and the international coalition to band uranium weapons says you k and us forces use depleted uranium, frizzy is after the invasion, a lot has changed yet. this province continues to remain the backbone, put ross, oil based economy. but still, the complains of the people are a lack of jobs, opportunities, infrastructure,
12:25 am
and the lack of attention from the people in power. family guy without the 0 butter on martina shamary is a research fellow of the kennedy school and she joined us live via skype from baghdad during an anniversary like this. it striking, you know, we see a politicians and policymakers very much trying to seize the invasion narrative. tell me about iraq itself and how people, particularly the youth view, the invasion of 2003 i find what's happening in iraq right now. very interesting. so you see in the worst among western policy maker is a huge interest in the anniversary that this interest is absolutely missing in iraq and particularly among youth. the iraq youth were mainly born after 2003 and had no memory of birth as um, and have no memory of the war. so just the fact that the there were formative years
12:26 am
worth long after the invasion means that this anniversary has passed. many of them virtually unnoticed and uncommon, it on. so what is it that they want for their future now because we speak about this being an illegal invasion and occupation of the country. and there are obviously a group of people, both inside rock and in the dashboard that remember everything that happened. but what about the responsibility of iraq's leaders? was there an opportunity there that was squandered? there are many opportunities somewhere squandered in iraq and iraq. you today will tell you that they want employment, they want economic well being. they want services like health care education. they want stability and they want to be able to express themselves freely and openly. these are the demands that you see across the middle east. now, you know, if you're going to be completely fair about this, iraq has gone through an invasion, civil war, sectarian civil war,
12:27 am
and has barely had time to really get on its feet and figure out how to proceed and how to go about building a ma craddick stay at the same time, given how much, well, there are cards. and given its importance just strategically in the region, how much energy has been spent on it by both its citizens and, and by friends and allies. it is astounding. the degree to which many key interest in many citizen rides have been ignored. we spoke about that being a sectarian civil war. this is really defining feature in the country and it, we really sort peak and 2006. but you've done some very interesting research about situation in the south of iraq, which is an area that is very wealthy, that should be flourishing away. you have, you know, politicians in baghdad representing that particular group of people in democratic. you would expect them to benefit from the wealth in the country,
12:28 am
but of course they haven't. yes, it's really then puzzling wire region that's so stable compared to the rest of the country in terms of security incidence relatively homogenous and produces so much, oil is faring much worse than the rest of the country. and in the research, we found that there's various reasons of course, everything is a multi causal story. but one of them is that the development baseline that southern iraq had in 2003 was far lower than the rest of the country. so it started off at a worse point, but because it also was a she odd majority area, many she are politicians from the south felt that they didn't owe their constituents anything more than representation because they had been used to being in opposition. they had been used to being controlled by a state that or pressed them. and so they thought that it was enough victory and enough by their constituents that they even had a voice or a presentation. but it didn't really amount to anything more than lot. thank you. so much for joining us on this. i do appreciate it. marcin
