andrew c r e z on if i need to go, i'm on the drive and reinventing cassandra, a new series of africa, direct on how to sierra the the 60 votes special haven't been achieved. the bill is passed us over to a devastating default as the senate approves a bipartisan bill to suspend the debt ceiling. the time about this and this is obviously the light from dell hom, also coming up a deepening crisis. incidence. $65.00 violations put an end to chokes and jet, while the us sanctions, companies linked to the warring factions, the bottoms, and set it all off to

a position. the to also sancho sentenced to use in jail. on one of 11 owns iconic landmarks reopens 3 years. also, it was damaged in the payload port, expulsion the . so we're going to begin with breaking news, washington, d. c. a crucial bill. it's meant to suspend the us debt ceiling and a verge of financial meltdown. has just passed its final hurdle of the 60 votes special haven't been achieved. the bill is past us. senate approved a bi partisan deal to suspend the countries $31.00 trillion dollar debt ceiling with just 4 days left to pass. the measure of presidential binding is not gonna assign the bill into law. the us treasury had one, but if there was no dealing placed by june, the 5th, the government would run out of money to pay its bills. we're gonna go live to

should have a time. see who's in washington dc for us. sighs of relief on both sides. i would imagine, but also both sides are going to be claiming a victory in this well, yeah, i mean, i think so the, in the house. uh, this will be seen as a victory for the republican leadership that this type of been slightly more subdued because the people didn't really like this deal. they actually get hold of a lot of democrats where did land grab a bite and even negotiate as in the 1st place in training. this principle that the republicans gonna hold both the us and global economy to ramp seminole to just squeeze out, even more cuts to the very lowest. well, the most vulnerable in society. and so there's a lot of anger about, that's what the news holding from democrats invited you for this. and in fact, 5 of progressive. but the democrats and those are quote, because of the democrats voted against, include anybody's founders, who i think the organs might might know. because they say, look, this is ridiculous, as you know, the all star ready for the poor and tax cuts for the rich and even more defense

spending. this isn't how we should go bucks 40 for democrats in the budget. for 17 republicans listen to independence voted for as well. that's not something you see very often 70 republicans virgin with the democrats. 6336. as you said, only 99 birds. you go, i use what will that one sentence? it wasn't actually in the train, but in order to understand the 10s his sons high school graduation, she had thank you very much indeed. she had a good time. so you talking to us from washington dc. well, you're not as safe as impose sanctions on companies linked with both sides of the sedan, conflicts, the army and part of military rapids support forces. it comes a day after 18 people were killed and selling it as drugs to the market and the capital up to the 2 sides have been holding talks in general. but the us, this idea maybe i have not suspended those discussions in a statement. they said the initial 7 days these far led to some reduction in financing. it enabled humanitarian assistance to reach an estimate of 2000000

sudanese. however, both parties committed serious violations, including the occupation of civilian homes, businesses and hospitals, as well as air and artillery strikes. space said she, monetary and trucks were stopped in warehouses were looted. an area is controlled by both positives. the us, the savvy mediators don't real life future talks if the army ends upon a military create conditions which are conducive. but discussions with the us national security council spokesman john kirby has been speaking to all just save it. and he says the by the ministration is determined to hold both parties to account. it's not just sanctions. we actually took 3 sets of actions today. yes. economic sanctions against 4 companies and entities. 2 of which are supporting the r s s and 2 of which is support the sudanese armed forces. but we also impose some visa restrictions on a number of individuals. and of course, we updated our business advisory to,

to make it clear to american businesses about some of the challenges there, uh, working or doing business in, in sudan. so it was a set of actions here before certain these companies have been sanctioned. the 1st is alternate is a cartoon based goals trading firm headed by all of us have come on the home at home the and his brother then that is trying to, if it's a u i. e base company, which is controlled by one of the all those younger brothers. the company is linked to sedans, army, which are facing us sanctions, our defense industries, system sedans, largest defense companies, and sedan mazda technology. it's a government owned arms company that's previously been sanctioned by washington. this could states and companies that produce weapons for the cities armed forces. justin lynch as an independent research or i'm co author of a book and so don's democracy. and he says, sanctions imposed in savannah over the years. haven't had much effect. this is really a long term play, right? the kind of attempt here is to really stars,

the resources of both sides of both the are assessed and the student is armed forces. and the idea here is that over the long term at these 2 sides, one have the ability to manufacture weapons, their ability to, you know, make money is significantly restricted. that's kind of the idea here. you know, sanctions have had a very next record across the world in their effectiveness. you know, in many countries we see in the war, ukraine for example, how the sanctions have not been fully implemented by some countries particularly the way he. and so i think that the real key here is whether or not the u. e will really enforce the section because some of these companies have partnered with companies that are associated with the u a. e, and rush up. but certainly, you know, if there is limited habit and this will affect things in a short run, in the long run. potentially sedan is one of the most sanctioned countries in the world going back to the past 30 years. you know, since 1989 when there was a military cooling student is seen really a series of sanctions. and actually,

that'd be stuff and due to its ties with, as long as the stream is, i'm again and the 2000 for the warrant are for so you know, there is not a lot of the of that hasn't been sanctioned into them as part of the state enterprise here, and what you've seen as a result of those sanctions is really sudan if you don't really become an operating ground for china and russia. these are 2 countries that obviously are not abided by us. sanction, a cynic leaves. officials say 9 people have been killed and anti government protest demonstrations broke out after opposition leader, or some sancho was sentenced to 2 years in prison on a charge of corrupting you've sent a goal. is governments defending the validate saying the judiciary has done its job . there cause hack reports from the car outside the car universe. a battle between security forces armed with fuel gas. and protest here is responding with stones. they're angry at it for its decision to put opposition

leader. we spend some time in jail for 2 years and the judge found him guilty of corrupting the use after young women acute sancho of rate. the verdict has angered his supporters with use the president of using the justice system to eliminate political opponents. protesters target passing vehicles, including our car, breaking our window ship panic, the residents walk home to avoid being caught into violence among them saying the single largest you may have, but it isn't the no, no what i want, nothing to do with politics. i don't even like politics. i'm not a politician. i'm just a labor working in a private company since 2017 and i have never witnessed such violence. i'm shocked to see the police behaved like this. comes up. i ask him if he's scared? yes, i'm scared. i'm so scared. suddenly, mast police take him in the police,

then he's being detained. the police are not giving us any explanation to why they've stopped the young man that we were speaking to, but the rights group had been denouncing the excessive force that the security forces had been using since the beginning of this trial rights group say over 500 people have interest in including journalist members of civil society and the political opposition. but the government says it is only maintaining low in order. police are trying to stop demonstrators looting supermarkets and businesses. we need 3 fives to file use duct found our nation, our unity, empty stability, and social harmony. president sell calls for com and dialogue, but he has failed to make his intentions clear whether he will run for a 3rd term, fueling political tension for demonstrators. the latest verdict against sancho is unjust and a blow to send the goals, democracy. and it sparked further protests,

security forces are now struggling to contain nicholas hawk, l g 0. the car was the heat. the mazda is a senior on the list of the consulting from venice maple cross to me, focuses on western africa, explains how much of a challenge. oakland stone composes to the current leadership. the at the sancho is, is represents the large pots of the senate goes a youthful population that have not benefit that the economic boom that the country is seeing over the years. and, and they accuse to call them. and the failing to address the wide spread socio economic grievances they have, especially in urban areas. people have seen some of those with the close, close links to the government that had become richer while at the rest of the people's a quality of live significantly better, a deteriorated because the rising cost of living. so they like phone calls on off the can and on the vestment spans that harvest, the politically that fights that goes to corruption in the country. so the,

the likely elimination of the pole uh sancho from the presidential election and the 2024 will definitely increase this huge and deep sense of this franchise month. and in the ation among the sancho support this mainly young people and it, before they inflamed the, the divides, but protests that we've seen. zimbabwe, well, who does turn in election in august the 23rd? the amendment comes as people struggled with a stagnant economy, rolling power accounts, and high levels of poverty. at the same time, parliament has passed a law that criminalizes act deemed harmful to national interest is feared, it's going to be used to prosecute anyone who criticizes the government. its authorities in mexico's college, most states have find 45 bags filled with human remains in a ravine. the remains of men and women of the number of victims is not yet no place have been searching for 70 people who were reported missing last week. how the school is the epicenter of

a violent drug war between rival cartels. mexico was president under as manuel lopez over the doctor says he'd support an agreement with criminal cartels in order to stop the violence. placing the country as comments came as whites active as called a drug cartels to enter into a peace deal with the government. i know raffle reports for mexico city. this is the most of eunice that responding to calls for a peace deal with drug cartels. mexico's president and it is monday way, lopez over to the raised eyebrows this week, telling reporters he agrees you'll see affordable. i agree. hopefully, these can be reached is what we'll want. and then to the violence. it was a surprise statement to many of those who have been finding the cartels for years for the team after replacing in an open letter from active is or searching for the missing loved watching. the thousands of so called disappear victims of the criminal syndicates or federal, you know,

set them on the bus daily at the door is the author of the letter i'm calling for a radical solution. will see like a must have an affordable if i see a piece deal between the government and the cartels on it mean what, what we had on our file. we got all, it's the government that has forced us to ask the cartels to end the violence and the disappearances on us since they don't want to assume the responsibility of searching for our family members. we find ourselves having to plead with criminal organizations with mexican cartels in this controversial concept for a piece packed between the government and the cartels. has started to be, particularly since the president wait in the office over to the administrator and see more violence than any other in mexico's history. with more than 156000 murder recorded during who's 4 and a half years in the office. in that same time, more than 40000 people have been reported missing according to the government's own figures. the crisis of disappeared. persons in mexico is the worst of its find in

latin america. and as the spiral of violence continues to worship, many were wondering the field between drug cartels and the government really use that radical of an idea of security. experts say that wall controversial and such a plan is an outside the realm of possibility. any negotiation with drug dealers to send you go station with a non group. they have different fire power. i need some cases in many cases, they have more much more fire power done the state. we need to think of it as a complex, a building strategy. so mexico's government has increased resources for searching for missing persons. this year, number of disappeared is overwhelming. guaranteeing that without some solution to the crisis, the search for loved ones will go on indefinitely. but who is it up a little al jazeera mexico city? still ahead and i'll just see the european leaders meeting mando button to push for western unity against the russians invasion of ukraine and the canyon. i'm pretty

sure accused of pushing more than $200.00 followers to stop and die will be backing towards we're going to the follow. we've got some very well whether it's eastern parts of north america. we say, plowed, making his way across the rockies. and we got some rather wet weather. hey, on the cool side as well, we're going to be looking at re apply pressure rate, which was that little faced and cooled around that we're putting in winds from a southerly direction of hands getting up into. so that is the so that he's in one or 2 places here. then how about to was the west across the high ground? as i said, we have got some slight dakota by the add some way to weather will i be still continuing to rumble away here with that blocking area of high pressure that is

catch a good deal dry the a. so let me, we'll see some showers, labor tools that is the side of kind of the chevy rank, continuing down towards the south east of the us and present the showers. the spelling of the rock is rolling into the plains and slowly but surely, nothing. the wife of the east was, as we go through the next few days, and we got some very wet weather coming into called in parts of the caribbean. over the next few days, had got this. i lineups out and re stretched out across the bahamas spinning out. so the florida southern prosecutor. but i'm a bit concerned about the weather. we'll see here, right over the next day or so to make it to sing some big i'm fund read down polls that makes is by the hispanic dollar with the risk of flooding. the you had a why judge? why prosecutor white cops and his wife said 16 when it happened, gets kneeled. i've been in prison more years than i've been for you on the street.

there are some folks born may. if it's their child who is making these mistakes, they don't believe that they're going to add gold fines' troubles to tennessee to investigate why the state has one of the longest sentences in the us for juveniles convicted of murder. 51 years behind bars on a jersey to the the the watching or does it reminder what top stories this are the u. s. a study or maybe i have an i was the suspension of adults and the fighting. incidentally, the army and rough and support forces that are already pulled item discussions. and here the us impose sanctions and companies linked to both sides set

a goal is opposition leader. osman sancho has been sentenced to 2 years in prison on a charge of corrupting use of the file and confrontations between police and the supporters and say the case is politically motivated. the us senate has voted to lift the bottling limit of badging a default on the national debt of 2 weeks of vacation. this promotion of cost by $63.00 votes to $36.00, president biden is going to sign into law. on monday, the senate majority leader, chuck schumer, says the raising of the debt ceiling was a victory for democrats. tonight's vote is a good outcome because democrats did a very good job. taking the worst parts of the republican plan off the table. and that's why games voted overwhelmingly for this bill. while republicans certainly in the senate did not. what do you lose the chief economist at the non partisan think site, the milk and instituting is with us live from essentially? so thank you very much indeed for being with us. so obviously, democrats and republicans are both going to came credit for this deal. as far as

the global economy is concerned, is this as good a deal as they are making a, as well as far as the markets are concerned in deals that allows the debt soon to be listed is a good deal. because the one thing that the market is cannot stand is the possibility of a default of the most foundational asset in the us in the global markets, which is uses treasury. every asset in the world is priced, offer us treasury. if there was some question put into whether the value of the treasures were real or not, that would have wreck havoc throughout the system. the level of of cooperation that we've seen with regard to this, a debt city negotiation is quite different in tone, at least to the ones that we've seen in the past. certainly the ones during the trump administration, where should we say, somewhat cheated at times. this seems to be a lot calmer. there was a point back in 2011. if i remember that the us last, it's triple a rating. do you think that at least in part, has been at the box of everybody's minds with regard to these negotiations as well

that that is absolutely the question that you should be asking and what i think market participants themselves are asking in 2011 standard and poors said to us, essentially both parties, what the deals you've collected or not together, it's something that will not allow the deficit and debt to go on the sustainable trajectory. in other words, you've got nothing to really capt spending in a way that is sustainable. and right now i think we can save the same thing. this deal is in some sense of phony deal because the what tests were put on expenditures are only put on 11 percent of the budget. the bulk of the budget is being pushed up by mandatory expenditures, entitlements, and those are going to continue to grow faster and g, p a and, and, and meanwhile, the markets themselves are wondering whether or not the us will be able to hang onto its triple a rating from fish and moody's pictures already warned that they may reconsider unless the deal is a solid one. and so far this deal is at best

a tentative one. how do we see that playing out in terms of the markets uh at the moment that bad on search and say, as you mentioned before, the mock is obviously hate uncertainty, but it's never the less still there. what do you think the repercussions are going to be? we're already seeing doubts about the value of holding for us, treasury's, for, as applies as well as part of the sovereign wealth. the largest holds of us treasury is japan and china have already reduced their holdings by about 15 percent over the last year. and i think other countries are we considering unfortunately, there really are no alternatives right now. and the dollar dominance will stay with us for some time, but again, markets are thinking of alternatives and that is not good for the us treasury. when this was originally making its way through, through congress, kevin mccarthy, the republican speaker of the house of representatives came in for a lot of flight from that that the hard line a conservative say in the republicans, given the fact that he's been able to push this through,

do you think he's going to be in future he is going to be bearing that pressure in mind when it comes to making other decisions of a similar nature. i think the fact that he had to rely on the opposition party in order to pass this legislation says a lot about how weak his position really is. and in some sense, it was a very clever stroke on the part of president biden's during the state of the union address, to put the entitlements at the for the portions of the budget that really are, are asking the needing to be addressed by a to, to contain the deficit it contained that, that, that are the i should put that off the table by essentially declaring you're not going to put the, the burden of deficit reduction on the backs of the, the retirees that social security and medicare and medicaid recipients are you and the republicans also know that did it now now again, fits is not gonna stand by and, and, and take that answer because they know that 88 percent of the budget has not been addressed. and i think they're going to ask for some action going forward. really interesting to get your thoughts on this william lee. we appreciate you being with

us and i'll just see this. so thank you very much. and dave, thanks. 5 everett allowed to send it across the train out a friday morning in the wake of a new wave of russian attacks that are being 20 separate. and this island drilling strikes against ukrainian city since the start of may. on thursday, 3 people, including a 9 year old child, were killed in the capitol cave. explosions have been had in russia as costco region bordering ukraine. in the past few hours, several ukrainian jones were shocking done, but the air defense system, according to the local governor. the original official also says to construction workers were injured in cross borders showing from ukraine earlier in the day. you're being leaders have gathered for a summit in moldova promising unity on ukraine, but to be no new commitments. ukraine's president's luxury is an escape, has been not the meeting is being pushing for you and nato membership. stephanie
