we are on the road in abu dhabi. lot of discussion here about what 2020 might hold. -- it has beenat frontloaded with a lot of risk. xi is using magical words about stimulus. good old-fashioned shovels in the ground traditional stimulus. re-manifestation of bubbles and leverage. nejra: good morning. perhaps that is why the equity market is taking the glass half-full approach, with u.s. stocks hitting more records yesterday. manus: indeed. i am having one of those magic moments on the road where i cannot hear you. i will go with it and go through my board. let's talk about what is happening with the currency markets. the yuan is strengthening. some people talking about 3.8% growth in the first quarter. the bottom line is, the global growth story. nejra: you are seeing futures in the green in the u.s. and europe. we could build on the record we had yesterday. japanese markets are closed. we see the yen retreating. we are seeingd, it build up. even with the currency near an 11 year low. we have had six days of losses. c

so how be odd - - re- odd or abu dhabi begins to form that because we want to do this together. so one might be that intermediate step to help the members unify themselves and the secretary general literally two weeks in but there is a mechanism that can help to provide more effective way to campus on the same page. >> and the two diplomats didn't identify any regional behaviors. >> my own view with yemen because he iranian strategic interest. >> and. >> here is this doctrine to keep them off the harry line --dash arabian peninsula. >> if you add to that with the discussions with the gulf states and israel how we get back into negotiations jcpoa two.zero. also we think that in this discussion it's pretty clear israel and the gulf states will move quickly on a separate track for security issues for missile programs and highly suggestive but i think yemen and president macro and was pushing for those discussions and that the united states should be working with traditional friends and allies and to shape that consensus if we define the longer-term goals so whenever i talk to irani

that is the one trophy in this abu dhabi revolution that they have failed to secure, and getting kickedof next season, that is really going to hurt. there's been a really strong, belligerent response from the club themselves. they say they're disappointed but not surprised. why not surprised? because, well, they say there have been so many leaks coming out of uefa saying they were going to get banned, even before the investigation had been concluded. they say it's been a flawed process. what they want is an impartial, independent body to carry out such financial checks, not have uefa be thejudge, thejuror, and carry out the investigation as well. they are going to appeal this. first up, go to the court of arbitration for sport. they say they're going to overturn this ruling by uefa. but you just know that this army of lawyers, the legal team that they're now going to throw at this, with all their might, for the future of this club, that is now so much more important in the coming months than any team they actually put on the pitch. the united nations says much of east africa could face

start the discussion discussion, looking at the middle east in particular -- i was in riyadh and abu dhabi last week this is the only game in town in the gulf for middle east. that means the emiratis, the saudis, the kuwaitis, the omanis, they are looking for other alternatives, looking at 5g infrastructure but also looking around the region, there is no other country that i can pull to gather the different regional powers or international powers like the united states. some people want to draw a parallel between the british withdrawal from empire after world war ii or britain gave up the united states actually is not doing that. first of all we are not a colonial power in the traditional sense. we don't occupy countries and run them around the world what we have is a soft economic power and and agreement and in good places representation of the government government. even though relatively less powerful we aren't losing much of our influence and power and our deployment list we choose not to use it. so looking at multiple any growth, there are a lot of opportunities at the end of 99 and b

but we have a specific situation with manchester city where the owner is shake monsoor from the abu dhabi ruling family and he's just poor billions of pounds into the city into manchester city and that has made the finances of the club very uneven he's put loads of money and bought expensive players paid them lots of money and didn't half it seems like didn't have enough of a sponsorship deal to offset the losses at the club by far too much of a large loss making the whole place really unstable so these us financial fair play rules is this not exactly what they introduced it is exactly why they were introduced they were introduced to control or to try to control this billionaire kind of you know play boys who buy themselves a football club for fun and want to go and win a big trophy and yet may not have the same kind of emotional attachment to these clubs that generations of fans might have and so my not wanting. to think about long term investment rather than make a pick splash with loads of cash basically so if you're a cynical football fan like me you might think this is going on all o

we've seen quite a lot of as well now manchester city's owner is shake monsoor who's part of the abu dhabi ruling family and he has ploughed literally billions into this club and one thing that you mentioned there is that they falsified their sponsorship revenue now what happened last year to speak of the german magazine the so-called football leagues and among them were e-mails which for instance detail that the sponsorship deal with its he had. ways of $67000000.00 pounds per year ok actually $57000000.00 of that was being paid by shaykh money to himself or his company so there was already a little bit of it all came out in these these e-mails over leaked exactly and so but city have really been flouting these rules since the beginning in 20122013 they exceeded the permitted losses now 45000000 pounds is permitted over 2 seasons they posted losses of 180000000 losses in that period they will find out the time and had some squad restrictions in european competitions but it was a fairly lenient settlement this is a lot what surprises you more here that manchester city was caught so i mean

really in effect just decided is that sponsorship money is really in effectjust more money from the abu dhabiuling family. so the amount of money they get directly in effect from that ruling family, from their wealthy owner brea ks family, from their wealthy owner breaks uefa's rules. and we know there is a financial penalty which some people say is just small change to them — they've been hit where it hurts? £25 million is a lot of money to anyone, unless you are... in terms of the prestige, the whole status and ambition of that football club, to be banned from their competitions for two seasons is huge. when we talk about uefa's competitions, it is also the champions league and the uefa league. you've thought finish in the top four, you're allowed to play in the uefa league. chasing that dream of being the best club in europe in effect they would say probably the best clu b effect they would say probably the best club in the world is what has been motivating this whole process —— process and manchester cities up you said they will appeal, but will we continue to see them playing for the nex

ambition of the club leadership from manchester city, which is governed from the state leadership in abu dhabihat everyone else in europe had to stick to. once this has been established obviously that uefa says it has found manchester city guilty of this offence and it has imposed a fine and a ban, how does it compare with other action that uefa has ta ken before, disciplinary action, against clubs for this kind of abuse? are they being treated fairly or is this a more severe punishment than you would have expected? this is a very severe punishment. it is the hardest that we have ever seen to any club. but this is an extraordinary case as well because these investigations against manchester city have been ongoing for quite some time. there was already a settlement between manchester city and uefa back in 2014. after we published our articles, uefa found that they felt misled by manchester city, even back then, for these investigations. so the rules are quite clear for uefa, if they find that a club does not stick to their rules, the hardest punishment they can hand out is ban them from the com

convocation, the grey area here, is that etihad are owned by the club's owners, the ruling family from abu dhabi the £25 million fine, they are not going to worry about that. a drop in the ocean really. but what is really going to hurt is european exclusion from uefa competitions, kicked out of the champions league. that is the one trophy in this revolution at the clu b trophy in this revolution at the club that they have failed to win, and that is really going to hurt. there's been a very strong, belligerent response from city. they say they are disappointed but not surprised. why not surprised? they say because it has been a flawed process from uefa. they say they have been lea ks process from uefa. they say they have been leaks coming out of the governing body saying they were going to get banned even before the investigation started. they say they will win their appeal to the arbitration for sport straightaway, but you just know that this team of lawyers that they are going to throughout this with all their might for the very future of this club, well, that is so much more important now than

owned by abu dhabi royalty, city‘s riches saw them become the dominant force in english football, bute court of arbitration for sport. if city lose and they are completely banned for a couple of years that could have a real impact on their ability to get sponsorship and to retain and to recruit players. if the argument around the legality of the regulations as a whole prevails, that could have much wider implications for the industry as a whole. but then i think this is ultimately a matter for city. they may have won tonight, but city know they have much tougher battles ahead as they look to move on from one of the greatest controversies in premier league history. the manager may say he‘s staying but the team‘s future along with the club‘s reputation is on the line. there is a huge amount at stake for u efa there is a huge amount at stake for uefa whose resolve is about to be tested like never before. if they lose, their financial fair play rules, their entire governance will be drastically undermined and it was interesting today that city did say they hoped this would be resolved by
