but in a different system of values and i think that the conflict of values between the liberal europe and the liberal of traditionalist russia and many parts belorussia of the countries is the main conflict which we have seen in the between the west and russia in the past when ok let's pass the ball on. but i'm not sure totally because if you look at them i don't river and ukraine in 2014 well it morphed into a broader protest against the crap talk received a victory on a coach and the growing authoritarianism it started out as a protest because you want a coach said he was not going to sign an association with the european union and for a lot of ukrainians they saw this and you're taking away my chance dacosta here so i think europe still has a draw it may not. i have the gloss that it did say 15 or 20 years ago and the question is going to be in a place like russia where i think you're right there is this clash of values do younger russians say no we still want the values of europe and then how does that work out internally with russia and i think that the problem russia has is i th

despitepening trend more and extended lockdowns in europe. looking at small-cap values, looking more economically sensitive funds. but a little bit different from that is low volatility. low volatility had a really bad 2020. it swung more than the overall market and it is not supposed to do that in a volatile environment. asideof investors cast lowball, but in the final week of the year it got more attention, seeing $75 million for is up inflows for the european listed market. in terms of outflows, it was really quiet over the past week, all about buying funds positioning year end for 2021. we did not see a lot of selling. the only strategy we saw sold there was quality, using $17 million with the flows over the week to january 4. esg and growth are both flat on the week. esg has had a banner 2020. it is hard to overestimate how well esg did in terms of garnering interest for the entirety of the year, so maybe that is why it was flat. perhaps people have allocated so much, there wasn't anything additional they needed to add. that is a record

so what we really need from europe is what the united states needs from europe, a creative way that europe can still benefit from china, but stay in sync with the u.s. striving to bring them, to bring turnaround. it is going to be difficult. tom: we are looking at the top risks that eurasia sees for 2021, and of course that is an international field. but i've got to turn to the german election this year. it is a huge and important and original election. chris reiter of our berlin operation tells me very simply that this could be your conservatives and the greens together. that is unusual, to say the least. how do you get a coalition developed in the new germany? the future germany? i would say the coalition between conservatives and the greens is something which should have happened four years ago. if you look to the german society, this is the coalition, the majority of the germans want to have. it was not able because they needed, and the liberals had the theing that they would be fifth wheel on the wagon, so they decided not to join the government, and that only was the reason that we h

make europe weaker and more divided. wolfgang and i talked about this a couple of weeks ago. actually, the european response is we need to come together in a more constructive way, and i think you have seen the use of the crisis to provide massive redistribution from wealthy countries in europe to poor countries. i think brexit had borne that to a degree. it will not always lead to chaos and disappointment, but i think there are opportunities too and the fact that the new global order will not be an american lead to order. the fact that the new global order does not mean the united states is back the way we used to be does also create opportunities for the incoming biden team to think differently. on climate, they are clearly doing that. on other issues, too early to say. maybe i am a little skeptical. they can change, so we will see. we will see what we will get. ms. hill: that's brilliant. thank you so much. many of the questions we have gotten i will weave in because i will start to listen. divided us with perfect seg

like we're seeing in europe, muted in terms of magnitude. this follows a strong day yesterday for u.s. cyclicals, with energy outperforming banks, outperforming at the expense of those pandemic winners, media, biotech, and software. >>> well, let's turn to one of the big corporate stories here in europe today. deutsche post has raised its 2022 outlook the german post and freight company was boosted by a surge in ecommerce during the pandemic pretty positive guidance we're hearing from deutsche post, and no surprise that ecommerce activity picked up during 2020 but tell us more about the outloom, and i know that you have spoken to the ceo as well >> not only 2022, it's also 2021, so essentially the hiking the outlook over a two-year time horizon, and they're super positive because it's not only the ecommerce business, it's essentially their long haul freight, the express business which is doing especially well it's plus 12% to 19 billion euro in terms of sales in the last quarter, and that trend seems to be here to stay, and what they're sayi

in europe and actively engaged in europe. but we do have to do more about our own security, our own future. i think that is what has bothered us and what has concerned us, this wake-up call came quite unexpectedly, especially for germans who thought we are now living in paradise. all our neighbors are now our friends. we are surrounded by eu and nato partners. the soviet union is gone. why do we need to care? which led to a significant decrease in the german military, which has led to the fact over the last decade or so that people have not really been interested in issues of military security and defense. and all of a sudden we're finding out that if we don't participate in trying to manage security issues, whether it's in mali in africa or in syria or in eastern ukraine, these conflicts will have a tendency of coming our way, whether it's to terrorism movements or migratory waves, as we've experienced since 2015. hundreds of thousands as you know, millions of migrants, , of refugees from afghanistan, syria, libya coming acr

and western europe. i think you can see zones that overlap and north americans don't appreciate maybe between u.s. and latin america these days and then you have a zone, you know, in the pacific rim of, you know, there are clearly ways in which virtualism as manifested, you know, video games and so on, right, is incredibly powerful in japan and south korea and so on and i'm just curious if we are talking in sort of quasi draconian terms and we have one minute to go. in 30 seconds or less, what are the zones of contest between these different models? >> i think that zones where there's influence and potentially zones of transformation where you can be shaped by other civilizations but the fundamental phenomena is not the same in my opinion. you try to become more powerful than your rivals and perhaps zones are important and whether you're better at fighting the virus, better at fighting climate change. you want to beat china at fighting climate change rather than beat china directly because after all we h

the people stranded here have placed all their faith in europe does europe have an answer. because need to free and we cannot be content with our european migration policy to get we don't really have one of the zionist was the o.p.'s what the e.u. has delivered to date is an absolute disgrace to european values arm silly absolute obscene. september 2023 days after flames engulfed morea thousands of huddled on the streets outside a discount supermarket we're looking for far you can she's only 11 and has spent the last year with her parents and to see players in the morea refugee camp like most people here she and her family fled afghanistan now after the fire they don't have a prefab if they had. camps residents take to the streets they want freedom they want out. the police try to contain the situation but it spirals out of control said the strongs with right the police respond with tear gas. they fired tear gas even at the small children their eyes were full of tears. now the no sign a family 2 adults 3 children are on the straight. hand gentleman everything was on fire in

ambassador with a focus on europe russia and much else besides. the west should push back against the worst of russian misbehavior but it should also leave the door open for dialogue thank you for those 3 statements thank you for being here and i'd like to begin with you daria if i may and begin with vladimir putin himself he's clearly under pressure that's big news he's under pressure from alexei no vile nice so tell us a little bit about himself. missing the volley has been around for over a decade has been a big presence on the protests and 12 which a lot of people here will probably remember the biggest today actually the protests that took time that took part took place this sunday were smaller than what happened. is well known for his. nose and i should say he knows how to speak the language towards the young people that's why i talked about it in my statement so he's charismatic he's charismatic and he knows how to play. i are in the how to make things stick so for example he is find in this last video was that he talked not only about the

sweeten the world's tide because the markets no longer were growing in europe in the u.s. so coke and pepsi and all the clones all the local companies that do the same thing exploded their marketing and in low and middle income countries mexico was the 1st country to be colonized by these agribusiness conquerors. today 73 percent of the population is obese or overweight 10 percent have diabetes which has become the primary cause of death. that's in the attention of the whole world focused on mexico to figure out why the rate of obesity and overweight and sort of. sugary imperialists attacked one of mexico's greatest treasures its cuisine valued by unesco as part of our world heritage. the consumption of fruits and vegetables dropped by 30 percent for consumption of pizzas fallen by 50 percent in 20 years in 14 years consumption of sweetened beverages has grown by 40 percent. and make it in mexico there are one and a half 1000000 places to buy soft drinks and junk food. which. is for public health it's a criminal situation where the police are. nothing else. each mexican dr

we have one of the highest property taxes in europe. and not only that, but it has a perverse incentive to be net zero friendly. the higher the business rates you end up paying. when we have spoken to businesses up and down the country, their priority is comprehensive business rate reform. all of those kinds of stimulus is important. or having some tax incentives around r&d incentives. that is the kind of stuff that will get our economy moving again. matt: what about working with the chinese? how difficult is that going to be when we have issues like hong kong activists flee back to england and find their bank account locked? i know it could be lucrative to work with them. on the other hand, there are issues with democracy and freedom of speech there. how do you feel about that? tony: you're asking me from a cbi point of view? matt: sure or the business. tony: look, we obviously need to have a reset moment on where we are regarding chinese firms and investment. we want to take advantage of that. strategic and national assets are busines

but not in europe. reporter: minister spahn, thank you for the interview. brent: i enjoyed by the deputy director of the virologist institute here in berlin. dr., it is good to have you on the show. we just heard the minister. there are calling for a fair distribution of vaccines. we know that biontech, pfizer, and astrazeneca, they announced delays and cuts in the number of doses that they are delivering to europe. what is the explanation? has the you over promised, or have the vaccine manufacturers over promised? dr.: frankly speaking, i think enough vaccine doses have been ordered during the summertime last year, and at that point, nobody, not even experts, could anticipate which vaccine would be successful, so the government has made deals with several companies that are using different vaccine blood forms, and that is a good strategy you from my point of view, so i think it is really a matter of production and of delivery that makes problems right now. brent: would we be seeing this supply shot, su

dream of reaching europe but at the e.u. borders they often get a rude awakening like here in the bosnian refugee camp it recently burned to the ground people have to brace the bitter winter cold authorities have set up new tense but there is still no running water or electricity. from here seems within reach for most migrants and the lipa camp was now is just a transit stop their goal is to reach the e.u. and so they try and try to cross the border to neighboring croatia for. the living conditions in the camps are so terrible bad moving to a nearby forest seems like a better option for him his big goal is to someday make it to germany and he's willing to enjoy our numerous hardships to make his dream come true. this camp in the forest is what. he used called home for 3 months he shares his homemade tent with 5 other men. this from. the. feds reviewed aid organizations passed by they distribute a bit of food and clothing to the approximately 30 men from pakistan and bangladesh living in this camp near. it's a small town in b

europe has recovered. not to the 1938 level, that is not enough. with more population and more social justice they must have a far higher production level. above all, there must be greater integration. our men on the spot need this. >> you can go ahead and ask questions. >> mrs. roosevelt, did you see a definite improvement in these countries you visited that had received marshall plan? >> yes, i've taken particular trouble to see people everywhere and to actually ask. now, we have done this thing. nations have done different things in different countries. i think it has done a really outstanding job. i'm not sure that everywhere, in every way can stand on their own feet. [applause] i've been on a very short trip, but i've been to quite a number of countries. and one impression is outstandingly clear. the interdependence of these nations. i personally believe we must continue our aid to them, but they must work with us closer, the key word is integration, and the goal is piece. ♪ ♪ the hudson is a 1968 film by the naval white house photographic

now it's exactly the opposite it is still the model of the europ europe. >> so what happens with the future of america with the premise of the book. >> so what does happen? that is distinctly separate from the european drama from the french revolution onward? >> even before writing the book what distinguishes america is the permanent part of virtual reality i do so you could trace it back to the very origins even the programs were escaping the ideas that existed in britain at the time to create the alternative reality and then you have that there is an argument i find very persuasive with communism in america because it's always possible to leave the constraints of the capitalist system society to move west but then all that comes to the surface in the fifties and the sixties that so we were attracted towards but then more recently but then with that restrain and that is precisely because of the of reality television because donald trump is in the white house. i think that's what defines the trump moment. and it is a virtual reality to occupy the white house and with that virtual ele
