why has america not been paying attention to latin america? >> it's a great question. cuba seems to be the one issue perhaps with venezuela that gets people excited. i think the general is trying to speak about the growing chinese presence in part as a way to get more attention in general focused on latin america. the chinese are opportunistic. they're moving everywhere, seeking facilities, relationships, arms supply relationships, across the middle east where i've just been. the chinese see themselves as a dominant power by 2030, 2050 and they're putting in all the infrastructure to project power and we need to take is seriously. >> a couple of countries in south america have signed up for china's belt and road initiative. is this part of what they should be doing in latin america? >> it is. the chinese have a coherent grand strategy with mercantile relationships that will build infrastructure that will use chinese product and give certain security advantages. but it's a coherent, broad scheme. i think that the most important thing that's happening now is that in ukra

and inflation nightmare returns to hong latin america once again. central banks throughout the continents have increased interest rates sharply to chain prices, but are the financial measures working. also this week struggling with a full blown financial meltdown, lebanon reaches a preliminary deal with the international monetary fund. but are politicians ready to implement economic reform? and west africa is facing the worst food crisis in a decade. that while more than a quarter of africa, the population is facing hunger. so what can be done to feed the continents vulnerable people use so inflation and dipping into people's pockets almost everywhere, but latin americans are among those most severely heads. central banks throughout the continent were quick to take action, implementing aggressive interest rate increases, but the measures have done little to bring down the cost of living. if anything, consumer prices, sword, and many nations last month, the situation could get worse as the war and ukraine drives the prices of commodities up. well, th

and this is a problem in latin america because it can cause political instability. not only because people can essentially revolt against the act and government, but also because it can be easily used by populist candidates from the left or the right to actually make use of that discomfort among the populations. and therefore, put a government in place that can worse and eventually the problems in the countries ok have gate. us. thank you very much for taking us through one of them. now let's take a look at some of the other global business stories making the news. a group of twitter shareholders are suing a long musk, accusing him of failing to announce his recent acquisition of twitter shares in a timely manner. doing so would put him in violation of us securities laws. musk had announced at the beginning of april, he held 9 percent of the company stock. taiwanese iphone, make a peggy tron has halted operations. major subsidiaries in china, g debating strict, 0 covey's lock downs. the suspension is marked the latest blow to apple in march major supplier folks on h

the alarm are latin america. editor lucio newman. reports are from santiago in chile. well, right now, the new color poacher, la la b, a washer. and miguel g might ies represent environmental defenders who live in the amazon rain forest in 9 latin american countries that come to the united nations headquarters in chile for the inaugural meeting of the escort sewer port. latin america's 1st finding environmental agreement for not to represent them with emma they, we represent more than $500.00 tribes of the day to tells us that every 2 days an indigenous activist is murdered and the amazon basin for defending their territories. yet what is one of the latest was 14 year old colombian bryan? no. david goodman, i mean a member of an indigenous environmental guard. in the last decade alone in estimated 1000 activists have been killed in latin america. the majority in conflicts with mining land and agricultural interests escape to accord aims to provide a mechanism for access to information, public participation and justice on environmental matters. if that would have been a

you compare it to latin america or russia. you find, in fact, russia and latin america have worst gun control laws on average. also, when you discuss oh this state has a higher gun, you know, it's more than the look at neighbors in new york city. you will see very specific areas where there isll a higher homice rate. some strange reason that's notice cussed.reason that's not discussed. why is it happening in these communities more. i don't understand why that's left out. i'm antigun but putting people in jail and having a lot of i incarcerations. that's what the laws lead to. let's not pretend that you pass them and you didn't have implications for people. why is the oriented pro gun control like the russia example and what have you. >> i'd like to respond to that, it's actually a good question. a lot of background was comparing different countries and ratesou of gun violence. that's a whole different conversation. i'd like to focus on the last part which is we know whatever city we are looking at new york, chicago, baltimore,

in my initial travel since latin america and the caribbean has become obvious to me that our partners -- as we work together to counter our shared threats. we must use all available levers to strengthen our partnership with the 28 like-minded democracies in this hemisphere. we must maximize important tools like security cooperation programs to train and equip. her partner militaries multilateral exercises to build interoperability and the state department fms programs did to kate train and build capacity that our partners use to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with us. crimea for example or strongest partner in the region trains latin american and military to counter transnational threats. u.s. outcome is putting integrated deterrence and action every day using innovative methods with all demands with other combatant command and our allies and partner nations congress u.s. interagency, ngos and the her. now more than ever the u.s. must lead in this hemisphere and that requires focus and sustained investment to help to be shared neighborhood that is free secure and prosperous for our genera

are you confident the good times especially in latin america can last? jose: good morning and thank you for having us on the program again. we had earnings for santander at 2.5 billion euros, 14% tangible equity, and the key drivers for that is we are a customer based bank. like you said, geographic diversification. obviously latin america, especially brazil, bitter thing -- benefiting from the currency situation. with these very strong numbers, we feel quite confident about our package for the year. we have interest rates going up, we are a commercial bank, gerd toward higher rates. we are optimistic even beyond 22, 23, 24 on the back of much higher rates. dani: do you think some of this commodity fueled trade, the commodity field benefit latin america is seeing, you think it is -- for now? jose: probably in some cases yes, but right now brazil is probably the only large emerging-market in the world that is very attractive for investing. the market remains very confident about the brazilian economy the next couple of years. ups and downs in the commodit

latin america has a great opportunity to play a strong role in that. globalization was great for cutting prices, it turned out to be not so great for stability. you've got to have multiple vendors and vendors in places you can trust to ensure you can make your products. as far as some of those other points, i am not convinced. the federal reserve pumped in tons of money in 2008 to stay off the recession. they should have stopped after the recession went away. instead, for 12 years, and they have an eating rates too low, pumping about much money in the supply. they own a third of all that now. we are stacked. they need to unravel that. but this could drive rates up. host: matt calling in from virginia, democrats line. caller: quick comment. it is always funny to me that republicans yell about being free-market capitalists until gas prices go high and suddenly it is, government, do something. my question is, you talked about authoritarian regimes in europe, which i do these are a problem and will be something we have to face, especially looking at france

we have already seen the biggest massive migration ever in latin america. as i have said what maduro is doing to the venezuelian people is what vladimir putin has tone to the ukrainian people. they have triggered massive migration. the only way for venezuela to be a better country is kicking maduro out of office. >> neil: thanks for taking the time to be with us. i hope you have a nice stay in our country. we have more on the president's push to address rising crime. republicans are saying not the way that they think will stop rising crime after this. you're a one-man stitchwork master. but your staffing plan needs to go up a size. you need to hire. i need indeed. indeed you do. indeed instant match instantly delivers quality candidates matching your job description. visit indeed.com/hire we all have heroes in our lives. someone who cares about other people and gives of themselves. to help others, who can't always help themselves. those are true heroes. and for a kid like me, who's had 13 operations, and can now walk, you might think that i'd say my hero is

our latin america editor, alyssia newman, is at the summit in santiago. it is a landmark agreement. first of all, it aims to guarantee access to information guaranteed access to protection and access to justice for environmental activist and defenders. and why is this so important? because latin america is the most dangerous region in the entire world, for anybody who wants to denounce abuses against the environment, against regulations, dealing with the environment or against their communities, we're talking about. this is home to the amazon basin, for example, the rain forest and a whole series of other economy interests. and there are people who are continually murdering those who are trying to draw attention to these abuses. that is why this is such an important agreement. it has been in the making for a long, long time, but it really still doesn't have the teeth that are necessary because they are reduced 12 very, very important countries in the region who have not ratified that treaty. yet brazil, the largest country in the region, has not ratified a columbia one of the larges

j jpmorgan's latin america team is getting. after gaining 46% in the first three months of the year, is the in intro of their declines. one of the risks they highlight is the upcoming presidential election being a source of volatility the current president is facing off against the left wing leader and foreign president who is currently in the lead. at first there were concerns desilva would usher in a leftist agenda the concerns have dissipated as he positions himself as a moderate his running mate is also a center right leader who is expected to bring more market friendly policies should they win. that's not the only political event. in mexico, the president is poised to win a referendum expected to accelerate his policies not pro business. it's one of the reasons capital economics says mexico has underperformed in recent days. politics have been known to move things in latin america. investors are keeping a close eye on these events. >> as you say, it's brazil, the key market to watch right now, an maybe pet row is an exampl

who is in charge of the antidrug activities in latin measuring? activities in latin america? who's in charge? >> senator, i am in charge for detection and monitoring. and that is to get actionable information about illicit drug trafficking. >> who's in charge of interdiction? >> that would be dhs and our law enforcement agencies. >> but there's no one individual who can be held responsible for the overall dealing with this issue, is that correct? >> i would say that that would be our department of homeland security, senator. >> i think that's something we have to strengthen and clarify. i'm not going to pursue this but for the record i would hope you would give us more detail on what you mentioned earlier about the panama canal and chinese activity i understand at either end of the panama canal as well as the straits of magellan. >> i was troubled by the brief comments you had with senator inhof about all the things you described china is doing in your area of responsibility. i think the strategic investment along the panama canal is most striking. i know this is primarily a

mliv's managing editor mark cudmore with a look at latin america. let's get a look at that market drivers with kristine aquino and grace peter's of j.p. morgan chase bank. christine, talk us through treasuries refusing help -- how it russians can use their reserves, they either drained their resolves or risk default. kristine: three very hard options for russia, certainly not one they would want to take. it does raise a lot of questions over russia's ability to make bond payments and how smooth that process will be. that was the initial concern when sanctions were being put in place in march. we have seen a rush at mate principal payments on its bonds that have been due over the past month. there was a feeling of a sigh of relief among investors that russia is continuing to make payments. they have not gone into default so far, maybe the situation is not that bad. this development from treasury really does up the ante on that situation and puts investors probably on edge at this point. francine: and grace, how should markets look at this because the

and unfortunately in latin america, and especially in south america, there's a democratic movement against u. s. policy. when chavez lula and kirshner korea were in power, those were completely different times. at some points, there were some problems, but then me, when again, for example, in peru, in chile, in columbia, there is also an opportunity to wind. and i'm sure that in brazil, lula will be able to become presence again. all this is a democratic movement against u. s. policy. i think people have become more conscious. unfortunately, there are organizations that cooperate with the u. s. in the field of politics such as the o s, not all o s countries are complicit in cruise for some of them do support them. i would also like to note that unfortunately, the problems caused by the activities of the united states are perceived by them as business memo. there was a similar example in our history, the chuckle war ostensibly between paraguayan and bolivians. but this was not a war between paraguayan bolivia. it was a war between 2 oil companies, american and british pay attention to this

they've already done it in five other cities in latin america. just wait until this really takes off! all you need are proactive citizens, and a way to transport food. you're working short-term, maybe a little bit long-term, but what is the ultimate goal? how are you going to scale it up? how are you going to push it even more? yeah. that would be horrible. - like most cities in the world, buenos aires was bike-friendly for decades, but that was a couple of generations ago. so in recent years, daniel nazero was one of the only cyclists in town. until 2010, that is, when the city finally started investing in bicycle mobility. over 140 km of bike lanes have been built, along with a popular bike-share system. and it's working! bike commuting went up 4% in just few years. and daniel just might help improve this number by giving people access to more bikes. his organization, la rueda popular - "wheels for the people" - gives new life to old bikes, before passing them on to citizens who can't afford them. yeah. that's really simple. beautifully simple,

we also follow the positions of countries of latin america. they can sak for themselves and one would understand not all nations around the world see they tend to push nato can stretch as a good idea. they have seen that for years as a threat. amy: let me ask you, carlos fernÁndez de cossÍo, china, cuba, iran, and three were among the 24 nations that voted against installing russia from the u.n. human rights council but cuba abstained when it came to criticizing russia rather than voting for russia. what was your reservation instead of standing directly with them? >> there were different resolutions and different contexts. in the resolution of expelling russia from the human rights council, we set it was a double standard. for the reasons explained committed take that decision, should have expelled the united states every year that it has been in the human rights council because of aggression, because of massive -- all over the world, including the united states, constantly and every day. there was a total double standard and we do not suppo
