once during the 1967 war in the middle east, america which was an oil exporter, helped europe when there boycott of europe oil exports. it didn't work. in 1973, it was already very different. and then it did work. but america now is taking on that position. that is, for them, very advantageous. >> what you think? america is taking on, effectively, energy diplomacy, energy policies that are going to help it with europe? is it that simple? i think it isn't. >> i was surprised years ago when the congress sanctioned companies that are located in allied countries, nato countries. this was unheard of that a country flexes muscles with such an obvious economic interest, although people depend on each other and we are in the same boat when it comes to the security alliance. coming back to the previous question, maybe i didn't make myself clear. what i wanted to say is, this is the picture of interest in the new government. if you ask my personal opinion, the level of escalation makes -- data. it is not happening. the european pressure, the pressure from neighboring countries, the pressure from t

i mean, once actually in, during the $67.00 warren, in the middle east, america was which was then an oil exporter. how you were about when there was an arab or by court of europe, an oil exports that time. it didn't work, of course in 73, it was already very different. and then it didn't work very well by the for opec. but american now is taking on that position and that's for them very advantageous. what do you think already brought that america is taking on effectively energy diplomacy, energy policies that are going to help it with europe? i mean, is it that simple? i kind of think it isn't. well, i was really surprised a few years ago when the congress sanctioned companies that are located in ally countries in nato countries. because this was unheard of that a country flexes muscles with such an obvious economic interest of. oh, we have to ipsum, depend on each other, and we are on the same boat when it comes to the security alliance. but coming back to the previous question, maybe i didn't make myself clear. what i wanted to say is, this is the picture of interest in the new gov

economies of developing countries in particular are recovering much more slowly and asia, the middle east to latin america and africa growth in 2023 will be significantly below the long term pre cova trend. now, poor countries haven't been able to spend as much as advanced countries to cushion the impact of the pandemic. the world bank is warning that another 100000000 people will fall into extreme poverty this year. now for more on this, let's talk to francisco own sorta, she is a manager in the development prospects group at the world bank. francisco, thank you so much for being here. so the world bank has called this a inequality pandemic. why have we seen such a stark divergence between the world's richer economies and the world's poor? yes, it is really, is a stock drivers. we're heading into a very pronounced global slowdown, as you mentioned already, before recovery is complete, an emerging market next year. after 3 years of recovery, i would support an emerging market, developing countries with 74 percent below to prevent any trend. and it cost to call me back to trend as if to make it up. so it s

traveled with president eisenhower on his goodwill tours to europe, asia, india, the middle east, and south america. and when john f. kennedy was elected president in 1960, clint was assigned to protect the first lady jacqueline kennedy. both president and mrs. kennedy were fond of agent hill and trusted him implicitly. wherever mrs. kennedy went, clint hill was by her side. and so it was that agent hill accompanied president and mrs. kennedy to texas on november 22, 1963. clint was present at the horrifying moment at the plaza when president kennedy riding in an open convertible was shot. clint immediately began to run toward the president's car to protect him and many of us have seen that dramatic footage. jacky kennedy extending her back hand to agent hill who leapt on to the back of a moving car and jumped into the vehicle as it sped away to parkland hospital in dallas. after president kennedy's tragic assassination, clint hill continued to protect jacqueline kennedy and her two children. then in 1964 he was transferred back to the white house and in 1967 he became the special agent in charge o

america only. it is the middle east and they're coming in right now. why wouldn't they? if we are the great states and there are people out there who want to see our country fall you have to come here on passport just back across river and we'll let you in. that needs to stop. this is very significant. i know that we were concerned about afghanistan, afghanistan is the minimus compared to what's happening in the state of texas right now. governor abbott is shoveling against the tide with very little help from the government it needs to stop and needs a reset in government and we have laws in that and start enforcing them. ashley: right. okay danny coulson thank you for being withs and professional opinion on this we may or may not talk to you later tonight but i appreciate you being with us. thanks danny go to david katz once again. david can you hear me? >> i can hear you. ashley: he brought up a very important question i've had sitting here reeling in my head danny had this point talking about the border. on monday, i was talking to a woman who was -- who mentioned thi

america. panama introducing similar bills. now in the middle eastis happening with the president of el salvador going to turkey meeting with the president of turkey and they're talking supposedly about bitcoin. as i sauls say, i mean no disrespect america is not the center of the world. there are other jurisdictions that are going to take more progressives and friendlier approaches. charles: to that point we saw what china did. there was talk about russia doing something similar. i saw the president of self el salvador is very aggressive on social media over the weekend. here is the thing though if we go down the path, not only greater western western powers trying to crush crypto, particularly bitcoin, but they want to prove a point to a nation like el salvador. you can't get out of the world bank system. you can't get out of the imf system. how dare you try to avoid going through us. >> yeah, absolutely. i think that is why you see a lot of banter going online. the bank of england two weeks ago criticized el salvador doing what they're doing. el s

and actually america called week if you're in spirit, has from gods congress. look at the middle east, look at the whole of the coming together. i think it was even 20 years ago. people want that the sort of short term success. it's all it would do would be to turn china and russia against the united states and even possibly could have been working together against us. that's what's happened. and when it comes to the conservation that you were mentioning earlier, this time around, obviously, i mean that china will remember, it's embassy being destroyed, as nato broke up. your love you at that time in the ninety's and poochie. and i think roy's remembers that russia should never have abstained on that un security council resolution on libya. so it's a bit different this time then major in moscow, up, up to the tricks that washington my play and room will react differently. i mean, this is what china said to, to, to bring them to, to support sullivan. you know, we're not doing this ala carte foreign policy where you just pig, we'd like to cooperate with us. but on the other issues, it's

it's all very well for us in north america, in parts of europe and some of the wealthy parts of the middle eastall right, jack," but the reality is, as everybody has told us from the beginning of this, that if you don't vaccinate everyone, then no—one is really truthfully protected. the serum institute in india was one of those places where vaccine production took off and vaccine numbers have been good in india, notwithstanding its enormous population. do you see any hope of that for the developing world? i think the situation is really desperate in africa. - in india, given its vast population, i think- it's a major challenge. so, india is still in- the process of completing its second dose of the vaccine. it still has, ithink, - about 50% of its population to be given the second vaccine, so that, i think, does pose - a challenge, the sheerj size of the population, but i think the problem is greater in the lowerl income countries. and that's where i think some kind of equality. needs to be achieved - because the first world having it and the third world not| having it is not a solution. there

storm clouds are darkening the international stage with major implications for america and for our allies. across the middle east, from proxy terrorist attacks to nuclear and missile development, iran keeps reminding us it has no intention of playing by the rules. in eastern europe, vladimir putin himself is spelling out the reality of russia's threat to the international order, one armored vehicle at a time. i'm encouraged that president biden finally appears inclined to enforce peace treaty allies with u.s. forces. other nato allies should join us inning defending our eastern flank allies. likewise, americans' efforts to deploy ukraine's ability to defend itself must occur not at the speed of bureaucracy but at the speed of relevance. unfortunately, washington democrats have spent months focused on one distraction after another from these pressing challenges. months before russia began massing forces for an invasion of ukraine, our colleagues on the armed services committee produced a bipartisan defense authorization bill that would reassure our commitments to our allies and partners in eastern europe as well

america. ah hello. the weather looks really disturbed across a good part of the middle east. at the moment we got to a cloud of brain sinking across saudi arabia, making its way across kata. and across the other side of the gulf, just running across a good part of iran, further north received some rather ly b right into the i love ants garza so some very heavy rainfall, some localized flooding. as a result of that in the still be some showers on and off here over the next couple of days and it will be on the cool side temperature no high. there are 6 or 7 celsius for damascus. and for jerusalem, or go some shower surgeon coming out of iraq, pushing into iran, still a chance of one or 2 showers, which was a gulf states some central part of saudi arabia, 25 celsius in doha, on monday, shouldn't be too bad. that right? it's not going to father, there could be more in the forecast as we go through the next couple of days. and so how will struggle to reach 20 degrees celsius. so it's getting a little cooler here as well. cool enough across northern parts of africa with some sherry

america, canada, at the u. s. australia is always recruited large numbers across the middle east, have been recruiting as well. and recruiting from lower lower middle income countries, the nurse to population ratio in those lower income countries. each usually significantly lower than in the high income countries, which means when you take those nurses out, the impact on the sending country, the source country might mean that it's unable to continue to provide health care to its own people. there are strict regulations in terms of nurses who then move in to other countries. there are a regulatory procedures that are required for nurses to go to, to ensure as you say, that the safety and patient safety bar isn't compromised. but that doesn't take us away from this really significant ethical issue about whether it is right for rich countries to basically off load the costs of their education, the education of nurses where they haven't done it and knocked themselves by going to other countries who can least afford it residential biden's being blamed for empty shelves in the u. s. supermarkets, winter weather, and

america's 13 year dry spell become then you know? ah, it's the weekend, here's your weather forecast for the middle east stand africa, we'll get there in a sec. but 1st, for the middle east, some temperatures across asia is well above average. taylor on at 12 degrees, ask about it falls. so that's where you're above average as we go into the gulf that north, when not as pronounced as it has been over the last few days, a rate on average in doha, with a high of 22 degrees off the baka stand. the wet weather continues toward the north of the country, got to be on the lookout here for flooding the hor right through to long by and heavy snow through the himalayas. now for turkey, we do have some showers, working around a soggy forecast to be sure, and on talia with the high 15 degrees was really this western portion. we've got some showers and really not too far away from it stumble, either at pictures over the last little bit. we're below average in heart tomb, but you've bounced up to $33.00 degrees and here's what the next 3 days is. look, unlike your texture, will continue to shoot up to 37 by tuesday. that's well above average. fur

america west ways in des moines. ah hello there we got a real wind tree makes in the weather across the middle east over the next couple of days. rain slaten snowfall. many of us said we got lots of cloud showing up on the satellite pitcher spilling out to turkey, rolling across the levant, and easing towards s, syria and iraq. so significant snowfall coming in here. i was a high, a ground, was that you see some heavy rain to, to western parts of iran. follow that line of right across us here at casa, we will see some rainfall as we go through saturday and on into sunday. so that's something to mark you caught that wet weather just straddling a saudi arabia, running all the way across into the red sea is still there as we go on through sunday. some heavy rain also pushing into the u. i. e could course of localized flooding course, and that system makes his way all the way up to was afghanistan, still cold enough, farther north, across iran, iraq pushing up towards turkey. the levant seems a nice there for damascus. and for jerusalem to certainly feeling a bit like winter cold enough to across northern parts of africa,
