east asia is going to continue to monitor a typhoon. nepartak continues to bring all this moisture already bringing the outer bands into taiwan and eventually making its way towards china as well. the mainland portion of china, the coastal areas. and the concern we have with this is the fact that if we look further to the north, we already had hundreds of millimeters of rainfall over the yangtze river. we have a saturated area of moisture. then we have more rain coming from the south. that is the concern we have when it comes to the flooding situation. notice the proximity is not that far away. actually when it comes to typhoon and the yangtze river basin. even though it may not make direct landfall, all the moisture will be approaching the area. here's a look at the track for nepartak. moving to the west/northwest at 20 kilometers per hour. packing winds up to 216 and gusting at 306. into saturday and sunday, we're expecting a lot to get torn up as it crosses over the mountains of taiwan. but all that moisture continues to move to e th

in a host of countries from east asia to the middle east to west africa, governments are under stress and civil institutions are struggling to provide basic services and maintain law and order. as governments recede from the center for national life, more people are shifting allegiances away in the nation state and towards subnational groups and identities, leaving societies to fracture along ethnic and sectarian lines. a region i have studied closely much of my professional life, when i lived there years ago i liked to walk through neighborhoods and villages to observe the rhythms of daily life. i've seen people of different backgrounds and belief living side by side secular and devout. today relations among these groups are too often marred by suspicion and distrust and outright hos tist. extremist groups luring impressible young men and women to join the cause and spreading false narrative meant to divide and inflame. a whole generation growing up in a environment of militaryism without a chance to learn skills to contribute or engage in modern day society. the underlying causes ar

killed hundreds all the way from orlando in the united states through europe and out into asia, east asia, in fact. the unrelenting carnage is being felt in baghdad, particularly in baghdad. look at this brand-new drone video. it is harrowing. just harrowing. certainly does give another look at the devastation that that impact was after that suicide bomb went off there, the suicide atoo attack. crews are still working to pull the bodies that is left from beneath the rubble there. all the while, funerals are already getting started for some of the 215 -- yes, 215 people who died as a result of this attack. all that happening as iraq's minister of the interior has decided to step down, citing a lack of coordination among iraq security systems. cnn is the only american network currently in iraq and our senior international correspondent ben wedeman joins us live there now. i know there's a long delay between us so i'm just going to ask you if you could give us some contours with what has happened with the extraordinarily deadly attack and now the future of any sort of governance in iraq. >>

east asia. we saw that the exact same type of operation and the only thing that stopped in for example in indonesia was very well aware, you know, law enforcement, same thing as in turkey. this operation, as jim said a little earlier, you can tell just by the timeline of the gunfire, they initiated their assault. they breached into the facility. they, you know, may have had some sort of shock effect, whether it was the personnel carriers, we do, we slash the place, we have to clear this place of the hostages. usually they're brought out right away, taken into ambulances, identified to make sure that they're not terrorists and that what you see is your victory parade. we have none of that right now. >> i'm not sure if we still have some of those live pictures that we had from the scene, obviously, there has been a live feed that has been re-established further down the road, but it doesn't seem we have that. we were able to see, malcolm, what appeared to be crowds gathering, certainly looking dow

one in china, broader east asia, the second the united states, and third european union.stitutions, italy and the rest, but in terms of growth, and their contributions to the whole global economic pile. and china has historically had robust markets in europe to sell to. once you add this further big political risk factor of a british exit decision, the chinese assessment, and many share it, is going to fundamentally weaken further the european economy and its aggregate contribution to global growth. remember, european's collective economy is better than america's. >> rose: the european union? >> yes. that's the chinese analysis. on the domestic economy, they're worried -- >> rose: just because britain leaves the european union, that's not the destruction of their demand capacity, it's lessened by the economy of britain, but that economy had begun to decline where it had shown remarkable growth after 2008. >> that's true, but when you've got britain as the fifth or sixth largest economy in the world, one of the three largest economies in europe, the second after germany, s

as malcom says it's south east asia. it does not work for the media there and stuff is starting to leek out before we have the press. >> yeah as you can imagine it's a fluid situation and we're getting a lot of the information from reliable media organizatiorganizatio organizations as well and then the sources and contacts and the police. kyle, do you have any updates or any information on the conditions of some of these individuals and have the governments of these where the cities maybe involved in and maybe speaking out publicly? >> the only government that's said anything and that's through nhk tv and then that's through japan and then they're saying that nhk says that there's a number of japanese nationals in the top and then as the conditions i do not have the details on them. >> okay. kyle perry stay with us and then we're going to reset at the top of the hour. this situation is unfolding for the course of the past 13 hours and there are some foreign nationals and nst the neighborhood and then the capital and then

but we have gone through a number of years where major american allies, whether europe, middle east, asia are all saying we don't know how committed america is thomas. we have open questions. i think if trump becomes president,at comes they will become certain americans are not committed to them. many countries still like they do increasingly have options. this is why the u.k. was tilting towards china on the asian infrastructure investment bank. this is why the french decided to go to the lisbon treaty after their bombing for common securities. what would obama do if you have the move on estonia? would obama risk nuclear war for that? this, hecan tell you went and stood in estonian parliament and said the nato treaty and our obligations to come to your defense apply equally to the old nato members and the newest. we will be here for you. partly you have to do that because a big part of your deterrent is convincing the russians or any other adversary that you mean. charlie: but if you say things like this you do not convinced that you mean it. david: the biggest concern that comes out of

also east and southeast asia and finally russian relations. welcome each of you. each will have 10 minute remarks and followed by a discussion i will moderate. then out of that we will open the floor for q&a. so we go with this order. ambassador. >> thank you. good morning. first the comment, united states never had china to lose. if we did lose it, it was long ago before i joined the foreign service. i think it would be more accurate to ask which country occupies the favored position in the relationship in the sense of having the better relationship with the two. it was the united states for a long time and now it's china. now, some people date the improvement in russian-chinese relations to the collapse of the soviet union. but actually gradual normalization of relations between the two countries began long before that. in the american embassy, which just opened up in beijing in 1979, after established relations, we detected a warming trend in russian-chinese relations back in 1979 and 1980. it was reflected in the fact that border problems between the two count

placed on asia and it is not explicitly talking about china per se but everyone who knows about east asia can say oh yeah, this is meant serving to some sort of china economic influence. is this a strategy that you believe should be successful or the way to go or do you think it will play well with congress or having a chance to exceeding that and focusing on the economics or strategic benefits, thanks. >> dan and phil, if you want to comment as well. it is a really good question. personally, i maybe showing some of my political biases here. you know this administration does not have much credibility on foreign policy issues. there is not been in success stories. i think ttp maybe the most successful of all. never the less, as i pointed out earlier, we need to demonstrate leadership in asia. we are in competition of that leadership world. i don't see china is an advisary. i also believe that if they are in the leadership role in asia, you will not have principles and rules of international trade that are as effective as they would be if we were in a leadership role. in other words, there

but we have now gone through a number of years where whethererican allies, in europe, the middle east, asiaey are all saying, "we don't know how committed america is to us." if trump becomes president, they are going to see that they are increasingly certain that the americans aren't committed to them. and many of these countries feel like they do increasingly have options. this is why the u.k., for example, was tilting towards china on the asian infrastructure investment bank. this is why the french decided to go with the lisbon treaty after their bombing. charlie: what would obama do if, in fact, we had to move on estonia? would obama risk nuclear war for that? david: whether he would risk it is one thing. i can tell you this, he went and stood in the estonian parliament and said "the nato treaty and our obligations to come to your defense apply equally to the old nato members and to the newest, and we will be here for you." now, partly, you've got to do that, because a big part of your deterrent is convincing the russians or any other adversary that you mean it -- charlie: but if you say

a host of countries from east asia to the middle is, to west africa, governments are under institutionsvic struggling to provide basic services and to maintain a law and order. as governments in these regions received from the center of national life, more people are shifting their allegiances away from the nation state and towards subnational groups and identities. leading societies that once embraced a national identity to fracture along ethnic and sectarian lines. nowhere is this trend more evident than in the middle east. a reason that i've studied closely for much of my life. , i likethere years ago to walk through neighborhoods and villages to observe the rhythms of daily life. i remember seeing people of different backgrounds and police living side-by-side. relations among these groups are too often marred by suspicion and distrust and even outright hostility. extremist groups have played it to be role in these tensions. in some areas, a generation is growing up in an environment without a just about skills to contribute or even to engage in modern day society. the underlying causes

now is joining us achieved strategist for the middle east and asia in luxembourg. great to see you again. let's see how much upside there is in oil. what is your outlook? >> we think it will be tough for oil to go much above $50. we had some supply disruptions andany parts of the world you had production decline in the united states. some of these factors are disappearing. think a range between 45 and 50 for the next few months will probably be about the right strategy. angie: what about the commodities space? when you look at the commodities space, what do you see in terms of demand? >> commodity prices have come down, obviously. we will see more of a range down market in the next few quarters. isiously the global economy slowing down. consumption -- the consumer part of the chinese economy is slowing down. we don't see much in terms of demand. we don't see too much upside potential giving the slow economic environment globally. there is a lot of pressure on this part of the world. you have moved to dubai. where's the opportunity as these governments try to naviga

asia, the middle east, south america seeing downward pressure on their prices.y are declining by double with the worsening global economic situation. concerns that the larger aircraft could see a bit of a hit. yvonne: so could see a quiet airshow. what type of orders could be in the cards? >> for example, the workforce type planes are still doing well. we are expected to see orders coming in from those. ,ources are saying that airbus and indian airline could be newly 17 of those, which is a huge order. that order could be worth about $7.5 billion. boeing is said to be talking to air europa and also tui. so there are still orders coming in, but maybe fewer for the bigger planes, while the smaller planes may still see some demand. yvonne: thank you so much. keep it here. we will be talking to some big guests on the air show later today. ceo joins us live on bloomberg at about five: 10:00 p.m. hong kong and singapore time. 10:10 p.m. if you are in london. ceolater, qatar airways' will join us. bloomberg markets middle east is coming up at the top of the hour. youse
