of the interval hon 1st responder, save the man who had been trapped in his car after the tumbled and slugged walkers casualties are increasing in other cities. badging especially is on high alert and thousands of people are still missing. as far as non stop transport facilities here in the gap, the are slowly being disrupted and here and elsewhere in the region, rivers that's happening to burst their bangs, which could cause more people to get stuck. that's what we have time for. thanks for watching. the got some hot tips for your bucket list. magic corner check. hot spot and some great cultural memorials to vote w travel off we go. it was 2016, that's

a good bunch of the queen customer wants to see if germany was the name. the last few years have been quite a ride, getting really in touch with the averted on the harm of when it comes to gemini is on the call. so with look right in the eyes for kids, but perhaps the biggest on the new hobby of 900 on the referred not to be in the news that refers and never comes when you feed them altogether. you'll realize it's cold just as another way of living. are you ready to meet the devon? then join me, right? just do it on the w or the well as how is russell 11 ish as result is. the west african nation has less towards russia following a military coup, raising concerns in europe over uranium supplies. and working one day less with pilot schemes being wrote out in several countries will discuss the merits of the 4

day week. business day to be business. i'm of watts in but then welcome to the program and we begin with the economic implications of the ministry who in new york and nations office having to evacuate the citizens from the west african nation after military leaders. it worked closely with russia's voc messing recruit seized power is just new to could shift installations as away from its former colonial power of france. as towards moscow is a key supply of the uranium needed by your new to house most to discuss what's at stake in these that speak to alex vines, who is director of the advocate program at chatham house. thanks a lot for joining us. just to understand this a little bit better. so how interested is russia in each? as natural resources.

the russian federation is a mining country and sort of wherever there is mining assets that they will go go to and looking at them. they offer example a, the company resolved as a major producer of both sides a mine and wanting books. i didn't get any. and so a country like these. yeah, that represents the 7th largest producer uranium in the well, is some way that russia would pick the rest of the clean be interested in unhealthy fish rushes involvement already that given the wagner groups presence initial or actually i'm not sure the group is present and in these yeah, it's very present in the to the north and libya and it's very active in money. it's trying to get market entrance to get into booking of fafsa and the military jumped to leisure and booking on file. so was very visible at the russia, africa summit and since petersburg last week,

including also building up the annual navy diet celebration in st. petersburg on sunday. so the russians are wearing him. we're seeing some russian flags being floating around amongst demonstrators in uh, in uh, in these. yeah. but, but russia itself is robustly condemned. the cool news. yeah. they supported the un security council resolution then from minnesota and lever off has condemned the crew twice. saying that the constitutional role should be rich, that having said that, the, the, the head of the private military group, mr. pre shogun, has said that the crew in new jersey is, or is, is a great step forward. and he's been offering his services to the jump to in the mean time, how much can we separate those 2 groups, the russian government and wagner, cause if they're saying different things, it's a little confusing, isn't it? because we know that one of them does kind of rely on the other. so i'm

confused on this. um, i was less confused until the events of wagner moving on to moscow. and since then, so what happened in, in, in, in june has, has been very confusing. um, it could be the, actually, the kremlin doesn't welcome military coast because they may have felt preston by wagner potentially strikes of stage one. i mean, we just don't know. so it's all very confusing, including the missed the pre show going was on the fringes of the russia, africa summit in st. petersburg. we've seen folks as of a meeting people and he's still active, although he's meant to be in battle ropes. he's clearly in the russian federation of the moment, so it's confusing. it's not clear and a but let's say we can get some clarity as time goes on alex volumes from chatham house. thank you so much for being is your insights. nevertheless. thank you very

much. so now it could be the next major revolution in the work place in the wake of the korean of ours. pandemic work is, are increasingly saying that they want a 4 day working week we're try was taking place in europe and countries like portugal. the idea is gaining momentum among employers to so launch corvette ro only where is this protective all the rules 4 times a week? that's because our employer is participating in a 4 day work week pilot projects. so lounge works less than the lab, but earns as much as she would working 5 days. because we often see the on the one hand, the pressure increases as we work with fewer people because someone is always opposite much of him. but we also know that we have an extra day off, and the rest is eating and combust to respond to the pressure. it's easy to ask, so the prospect of more leisure time appears to be motivating. that is the

assumption of some 40 companies participating in the pilot project. and they're basing this on experiences from other european countries. the project is being monitored by researchers. these improvements for employees have to do with any improvements in mental health and also work life balance. and there are many indicators at those levels. what we also see is that for companies there tends to be savings and the savings overcome the costs. the savings have to do with the reduction in intermediaries costs, specifically associated with the risk decrease in absence his rates the 4 day work week trial mainly involves firms from the industrial instead of this sectors. it allows fortune goes socialist government to fulfill an election promise that has also prompted a public debate about the countries competitive and this still didn't bring splits . it is important that we create attractive working conditions at a time when we are trying to attract the skilled workers company to do that on

a role this up and also about the change isn't just about getting rid of one day. it's also radically reorganizing procedures because the daily number of working hours is still the same. then suppose it also slice us for noise. we will have fewer meetings because people should be able to concentrate better on the work and not be constantly interrupted. that's how we want to save time when we've done that . all the firms now have until the end of the year to test whether the 4 day week is effective by the president of germany's effort instituted for economic affairs has spoken out against the 4 day week. timmons 1st joins me now. thanks a lot for being with us. so this idea appears to be gaining support as well and you among them. i think that we already have a situation where people can work 2 days, 3 days, 4 days, 5 days a week. i think there is no need for a general or regulation on top of that. we are living in times where increasing the

companies and public administrations have difficulty finding people. so if we encourage people to walk even less, we will have problems. for instance, if we think about hospitals, they already have problems, finding enough nurses and employees generally, and this would be made worse by a full day week. this isn't the idea that this would actually make jobs more attractive if people can work just 4 days instead of 5 for the same amount of pay. a yes, i mean, today people can work for days. it's just not the same amount of pay. if we had, i guess, pay less, we a yes. i mean if we leave the give a give a pay of a 5 day week of for the holiday week. that's an increase in all the wages of 25 percent. the question is, who will pay for that? the productivity may increase a little, but certainly not by 25 percent. so the question is, who would cover the cost?

it's that that's not easy. and still, even if people do find a full day week attractive, i don't think of the, the amount of people are willing to what will increase by it enough to compensate for the loss of the one day. so i think there's no way to transfer suggested the tons of the that happened into this and it happened. some shots have just been hearing about the trying to bolcko's controlled in the u. k. but in the us as well . and they found the dean of the companies taking part of that have really found this to be a positive thing. and i've been 90 percent of them in the case of the the case that he said that they've gotta keep up the full day week. and that they didn't see that drop and productivity i think it's perfectly fine with individual companies do that . uh, but it's certainly not something to be generalized. if we think of, you know, services like the health service, the police, it's something necessary that people are around for some time and increasing the walk falls by enough to maintain those services. a 247 with just not be possible.

so i don't think this can be generalized. uh, the way i mean watching life is flexible on riley. so companies will think, yes, it's better to have people working full days a week. that's fine, but it should be something that is regulated. generally, you have to realize that to you, moving against the fashion of the moment, this is something that is picking up men some. so why, why do you feel you need to speak out on this because we do, we don't always hear from you on the, on every issue. and i, i think it's important to explain a really what the consequences of this are. i think for wage compensation is unrealistic and people what class one implication is also because we finalize the pension system, perhaps system on the basis of labor income. mostly we, a lot of people, a lot less than i'm nice they well, it would also pay less tax and this will undermine the finances of the welfare

state entirely. so why king less at times where the few and fewer people in the workforce anyway simply doesn't work for a number of reasons. i think we need to encourage people to walk more in the end. it's an individual decision about what we need is rather encouragement for working more. we don't need to encourage people to walk less. i think that that's something that people will find quite a bleak idea that people should be pushed to work more people who are already exhausted. and how do you go about deciding people? that's a good question. you know, i'm not saying pushing people i think of encouraging people and giving incentives also. yes. i mean, where there is cassidy of was we need to pay them more about encouraging them to walk last with simply make sure what to do isn't public's services less and that's not the way to go. okay. clements for the president of the 2nd statement. really

interesting hearing your point, to be honest. thank you. now in the u. k. m l is race. it has rising even to new heights. the remote ordinate islands off the coast of scotland have just received a lifeline link with the mainland. prisons royal now has now started delivering that fossil alexis by road. the weather in the north c condo is be relied on to allow boats or plain trips to the island. so nicholas had set the new drone deliveries, making guessing, supplies, and was from the mainland, or alive the paramount of the top business story with following fully the south europe and nations office having to evacuate vs ends from new shaft and military leaders have worked closely with versus bob and investment agree, sees pallets is just me, jack would shift and agents is away from his former colonial power from some towards moscow chairs
