2:13 am
and that are you and the source of what we are living now. and the 2nd thing after having, you know, it's a military cool. and then they decided to fight it out among themselves because they disagreed once more on the issue of or civilians. so that's why you find out where to where we are now. and this could have been avoided, had the been seen to see what they have signed. have they been since you had to the commitments that they concluded with this videos? to what extent is the united states to blame for how things are played out, where they are, where that trouble was brewing? well, maybe there were, some of them are, you know, and i gave you this, you know, before this happened. and they said, well, you know, it's not going to be as easy as a think he's
2:14 am
a teacher and we have no examples. and yeah, and other countries are in the military, you know, assisted and maintaining power and you know, depriving civilians from from their rights. but of course, at that time and many people with the full, you know that many people and they said no, no, no, this is never going to happen. this is different. so that is different. i mean, our military have live the last one that we love, that they're going to be different. but we can not blame the americans or anybody else for what the sudanese have inflicted to themselves and apologies for interrupting if the u. s. though. now in a position to do anything or do they lack the will or even the influence know you can say that they're working hard in order to find
2:15 am
a solution to this problem and they know that they're working on that. so these are the african union, and we've got another partner in union. and in order to find a solution to this problem, when the ukraine war began a year ago, the western world immediately jumped to support them with countries all around the world, opening their doors to those display, sending aids, and so on. which to dawn, the reaction is much more muted. what do you take away from that? well, the mitchel loan is a different one. you know, or is a russians and a high stick for the ruffians. for me to a, you know, children are completely different from, from this one. these are sudanese fighting, so it's wild and, you know, it is russia,
2:16 am
ukraine has been unthreatening. many countries are members of net, and you can union, so understandably, they wouldn't be, you know, a difference of approach. but this does not mean that the europeans are americans outside to trying now to assist them. and the problem into that is that there to be use on both sides that are decided to scare away the international no medicaid in active and workers and even know. so then i will try to scare away international presents so done. and i think this is the plan in order to continue the order without having our extended i know the international community nestled in south every appreciate your time, form a sudanese ambassador to the united states speaking to us for life. thank you.

2:24 am
president joe bought and republicans in congress. so in a standoff over how much the u. s. government can borrow as go to alan fisher who is live for us in washington, d. c. allen, a pretty stock warning from john yellen that what is she trying to do? she signed to get them to pay attention. there's been a lot of talk about this since we back in january. you remember then that janet yell and announced that the u. s. would take extraordinary measures to make sure that it can continue to pay its bills and warn then that by actually june, that could be in a position where they are no longer able to do that. though she says the government could run out of money on jan in on june the fast. that is a bit of flexibility in that deep, but she would really like the politicians to start paying attention that the republicans just last month passed legislation that would raise the debt ceiling, but would also impact some government programs and coal for spending cuts in a number of areas, joe biden is, says that simply not a stock,

2:26 am
it makes it much harder to raise money. people won't lend the money if they do, their interest rates will go up. but remember, the u. s. is the biggest economy in the world. so if it starts to struggle than other economies will struggle to. but on a more basic level, if the interest rates are high, if the government is paying more to borrow money then so the ordinary people in the streets, so mortgages become more expensive. car loans become more expensive credit cards, trying to pay down the bill becomes much more expensive as why janet yon has spoken out here. she knows that this is largely at the moment a political rather than the financial problem, which is essentially said within the next 30 days, there's got to be a deal. or this is going to be a huge financial problem or a much bigger political one for the u. s. as well. okay, thank you for that alan fish and there for us in washington dc. yes, president j. barden says, 1st republic deposit as will be protected in his 1st comments after the troubled bank was acquired by j. p. morgan chase regulators had taken control of the bank. a
