there is strong unity with the e.u. over russia, seen as a direct threat to poland. >> there are all kinds of attacks right now on the borders. we have been seeing them for the past two years. russia and belarus are increasing the pressure on our borders. they are increasing the number of provocations and we have to be aware a number of the provocations will increase. sohail: the kremlin says pulling his become of the most pro-western european power hostile to russia. >> their existing risks with the militarization of poland. warsaw announced its intention to build the most powerful army on the continent. in this regard, purchases of weapons have begun from the united states of america, great britain and korea. let's bring in our guests. in warsaw, liliana smiech, president of the warsaw institute, a polish nonprofit think tank specialising in geopolitics and international affairs. in berlin, ben aris, founder and editor-in-chief of bne intellinews, a business media company focusing on emerging markets. also, michal bar

was to the e.u.s handing out billions of dollars to countries that are willingly perpetrating human rights violations, they can't say that they also have the political world stop forcing people into the hands of smugglers. brent: over top story tonight is about the crisis in niger. we know that in africa, you have states that are failing their publics. one reason why people are willing to migrate to europe. what is your message to the political leaders across africa? what should they be doing so that their people don't want to pick up and leave? guest: i think that is a very complex question. people will always migrate. regardless of crisis. this crisis might be happening now, but the climate crisis is incoming and people will be forced to move. it is really what can we do as european states to create safe and legal pathways so people can leave without risking their deaths. you haven't seen headlines of smuggling gangs with ukrainians. that is because ukrainians have safe and legal pathways and it wa

and i think tied into that is the fact that the e.u.gotiating and prosing funding for tunisia effectively to stem migration and so this politics is all being played out at the same time and when money is involved, i think we've seen the e.u. is spending huge amounts of money across africa to try and stem migration and certainly my reporting would show that that has propped up systems and militias and dictatorships that are prosecuting people further. and i would encourage people watchdog read my book "the fourth time we drowned." >> what do you think should be done to find a humane solution? sally: that's a big question because first of all, we need to stop distancing ourselves fro this problem. we need to stop ignoring the fact these are people and look at the consequences and human rights issues that are called as a result of our country's actions. everybody in europe and britain as well, everyone in the rich world need to pay attention that these mass drownings are happening and tens of thousands of people are dying, 11 children ever

economy, are there levers that can be pulled, marginally improving relations with the e.u.? maybe changing the tax regime? are the relatively straightforward things that politicians can do that would have a meaningful impact at this stage or is it hard to fix the economy? liz: it is hard onto productivity front. the u.k. has been looking for productivity since the global financial crisis. the obvious answer where productivity can come from is technology and ai. the flipside of that is if ai is doing all the work then there is a rise in unemployment. that is increased productivity but not anything that will win an election for anyone. the other way you could come is through business investment but that takes time. with interest rates over 5% the conditions are increasing business investment are a bit less conducive than they were. if firms find it hard to hire, if the cost of labor has gone up and it has become more scarce, maybe that is the time to invest in technology that can take place of labor but be careful what you wish for because that could mean unemployment. alix: w

britain, the e.u.s about how bad it is that putin is trying to jail his opponent. wonder if those same organizations will come to the defense of donald trump. probably not. will: it's almost like the slightly indirect shots of an indictment of a president are so loud and explosive that the direct shots go unnoticed. president trump saying if you come after me, i come after you and it's a direct shot and in surprise. it's sort of been his ethos. if you after me, i go after you. pete: i'm a counterpuncher. will: but there is another fascinating set of sound, and i hope we'll grab it later in the morning. doris kerns goodwin on msnbc said something to the effect of we have to do anything we can to stop him from winning the election. that's a direct shot. you are saying you need to subvert the democratic process. you're acknowledging donald trump's not just potential, but perhaps probability of winning an election and saying we'll do anything we can to to stop him from being president of the united states.

so this week s&p global has dropped their esg alphanumeric scale just days after the e.u.at means, but sounds like it's a ten in the right direction. of course -- a step in the right direction. this sea change, let's be honest, is probably going to be temporary. i think what's going to have to happen is people are going to have to start to see that this stuff does not work the way stuff is constructed. you just heard how much earth as has to be moved to make one battery, 500,000 tons of earth. it's just nuts. we're going to strip mine it, we're going to have kids in the congo going through polluted water to make your battery. a big deal will be next year's elections. if the gop wins big, i think you'll see this retreat intensify. also a harsh winter, i'm telling you, a harsh winter, and we could see that misery index this europe really, really go up. remember, they got away with a really warm winter last year, and a i'm not wishing anything bad on anyone, but this year everyone's talking about a harsh winter. listen, these folks who are pushing this are true believers, and

in the e.u. and other jurisdictions around the world, there is now competitive legislation. because countries want to make sure companies with investors like us can invest globally, can come to their markets, as well. here we are starting the arm races we should be. the kind of legislative arm races that allows us to think about what we can galvanize as action on a global basis and think about getting back on a path towards a de-carbonized world we all deserve. i am grateful to be here to share those perspectives today. thank you for this opportunity. thank you.

but the support from the u.s., the e.u., the organization of american states, that was all essential.nk had those international actors not been paying attention, we might have seen a really different and more troubling outcome here. nick: arevalo does not control any other piece of the government. congress, the courts are stacked against him. what are the challenges he's going to face, even perhaps in security, especially given that he doesn't take power until january? will: the first and i'd say the biggest challenge is that the three criminal cases launched against his party without evidence remain open. now, for the moment, he is riding high. he has this groundswell of support. that doesn't protect him from one of these baseless prosecutions. i'm worried that members of his party could be put under a pretrial detention. if not that, certainly, i think we're going to see the opposition in congress pass a very limited budget this fall that goes into effect the next year. i think we're also going to see them try to stack the judiciary with even more judges aligned with their interests

the crown jewel in the e.u.'s programs, the european version of pnt. originally it was anticipated to be a public-private partnership and it, was difficult for them to get industry people on board because of the issue of liability. were they going to be covered? so this is not a new problem. ultimately it became a public service model and government-provided. they ditched the ppp. there is a lesson to be learned. right now the discussions in the u.s. government have also involved something that comes out of this commercial integration and our increased reliance on things like imaging and telecommunications from the private sector, and that is looking for ways to do this protection. looking to the civil air reserve fleet craft. and of course, it's not an apples to apples comparison. i am sure you have seen press about this. ssc just cut the ribbons on their center in chantilly. one of the things they're working on is a space version of crafts, like the commercial augmented space reserve. the big issue is, how are we going to handle this issue of liabili

hydrogen so that there can be a good trade of green hydrogen globally between not just india and the e.ua wants to be an exporter, we certainly have the natural resource, both in wind and solar. we have natural coastlines, lots of ports to supply both to the parties and to the european union. the indian government has made it easier to create a transmission network to move power around so that we don't actually have to move green hydrogen around, which is harder. that allows us to produce the solar and the wind it india, move the power, electrolyte is the water and convert it to green hydrogen and ship and set it out. that is a significant benefit we have in the country. rishaad: that is one of the big problems with hydrogen. it is seen as the holy grail for many companies. i want to talk to you about your unit of petronas. what is this important an holders it improve your bottom line? sumant: it is very simple. there is a lot of interest from overseas investors to have exposure to indian renewables. but it is not that easy because execution india does require a fairly deep set of skills

japan, for south korea, for taiwan, for the united states and for the e.u.nk your comet has to be thought of in a multilateral way. all of these developed economies have supply chain and market revenue opportunity in china. this de-risking that we are seeing, led by the private sector, i think is one of the most important components of why you see concern in china. and i hope that's the case. in my view, economic deterrence to beijing is one of the most important things that we can do on a multilateral basis, to keep them from being provocative. vis-a-vis taiwan or the south china sea. i think that is a key point. tom: we are thrilled to have you on as you are the only republican who will not be debating at the end of the month. it is good to see at least one republican won't be on stage. but french, can all of washington, democrat and republican, the bipartisan china view, can we have an adult multilateral and complex discussion? or are we going to end up with silly simplicities that we hear and listen to now? french: such a good point. that's why i think m
