Description
Asian markets bounce back after multi-month lows while crude also recovers, having seen its worst week of trading for nine months. Meanwhile, U.S. Vice-President Kamala Harris embarks on a five-day tour of South-East Asia to reassure allies against growing Chinese power and influence in the region. In Germany, with just five weeks before the general election, the CDU and SPD are level in the polls on 22 per cent. Support for Angela Merkel’s party has dwindled recently – its largest drop in public opinion since 2017. And as the chaos in Kabul continues, we hear from NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg who says the alliance is working hard to evacuate citizens and personnel from Afghanistan, but admits it was blindsided by the speed of the Taliban takeover last week.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
