Naive and dangerous. As the United States grapples with racism, cnn is shining a light on the racial divide in the United Kingdom. Good to have you with us. Well, after a lackluster turnout at his rally this weekend, an adviser to u. S. President donald trump says the president is very upset about the disappointing crowd size. Local Officials Say a little more than 6,000 people showed up saturday in tulsa, oklahoma to hear mr. Trump speak. That is far below the expectations of the Trump Campaign, which had been claiming there was massive demand for the rally in the days leading up to it. The president was reportedly fuming after six Campaign Staffers in tulsa tested positive for the coronavirus, as the rally got under way. Mr. Trump is planning for more rallies, this time in arizona, even as coronavirus cases surge in parts of the country. Take a look. Nearly half the country, 23 states, have reported an increase in new cases in the past week, compared to the previous week. Martin savidge explains one reason the turnout for the rally might have been so low. Reporter the president s rally in oklahoma was billed as a celebration, but it was clear that coronavirus cast a shadow over it, and one of the reasons is that it may have impacted the number of people who attended his rally. It goes like this. Almost every week in this particular county they have set new records for 24hour transmission numbers. As far adds ts the increase of coronavirus. Health officials have been warning with that kind of a spike, it was irresponsible, even dangerous, potentially, for so many people to show up for a rally inside of a closed arena. Its possible because of that imaginary many people decided for safety reasons to stay home. The other issue is just how many people did show up. The fire marshall is saying inside the facility, which is capable of holding over 19,000, there were only 6200 people in the billing. The Trump Campaign is pushing back, saying they believe there was at least double that number that attended the president s event. The difference is the fire marshall is counting people inside the building, the campaign is counting how many people went through the magnetometers, the security gates. Does it account for a discrepancy . Thats a significant difference. There has always been a problem with this administration and numbers. Lastly, some city Officials Say its possible that the projections that the campaign made to the number of people could have actually scared people off. They said there were over a Million People who wanted to get tickets online. That 100,000 people were going to show up and, of course, 20,000 would be crammed inside of a building. It is suggested by some here that those kind of numbers people arent accustomed to and felt with that large a crowd there could be problems and many decided to stay home and simply watch it on tv. Martin savidge, cnn, tulsa. Well, the number of coronavirus cases in the u. S. State of arizona has nearly doubled in the past two weeks. And that is where the president is planning to hold another rally. Ryan nobles has our report. Reporter after that disappointing showing at his rally in tulsa over the weekend, President Trump is turning his focus west. Then hes going to come here to phoenix that night and speak to a group of young Trump Supporters, students for trump. The city council and mayor have instituted a mask order that requires everyone inside a building less than six feet away from someone to wear a mask, and the mayor of phoenix telling cnn that she hopes that everyone that goes to that rally is wearing a mask and that including President Trump. President trump up until this point has rarely been seen in a mask and hes also made a point about how wearing a mask is not all that important in terms of battling the coronavirus. Now, the mayor did tell cnn that she does not expect the city to cite President Trump, but she hopes that he leads by example. Of course, the mask story only part of this narrative. Well also see just how enthusiastic this crowd is and if theyre able to bring in the big numbers they were hoping in tulsa to this rally in phoenix. We should point out its not a campaign rally, its put on a thirdparty group, but still ate group with enthusiastic support for President Trump and will be an important part of his reelection message. Ryan nobles, cnn, phoenix. Meantime, Peter Navarro says the white house is preparing for the possibility of a second wave of the coronavirus in a few months. It should be noted medical and scientific experts say the u. S. Is not out of the first wave of the virus. And cases arising in nearly half the country. We are filling the stockpile in anticipation of a possible problem in the fall. We are doing everything we can beneath the surface working as hard as we possibly can. New york city was once the epicenter of the pandemic in the United States, now its entering phase two of reopening. Employees will head back to instore retail, hair salons, barber shops and offices on monday. Unfit, unprepared, and uninformed. Right now we are less than 24 hours away from a new explosive tellall book from mr. Trumps former National Security adviser john bolton. Its hitting shelves after the white house failed to quash its release. In an interview with abc news, bolton gave a peek at the dire picture it paints of life inside the west wing. I dont think hes fit for office. I dont think he has the competence to carry out the job. There really isnt any guiding principle that i was able to discern other than whats good for Donald Trumps reelection. Well, cnns Vivian Salama takes us through more of boltons claims. John bolton has finally spoken out in his first interview since cnn obtained his book last week, telling some of the dynamics and the controversies that he witnessed firsthand when he was President Trumps National Security adviser, and some of it is elaborating on what we saw in the book in terms of his personnel relationships with certain World Leaders in particular World Leaders that john bolton believed we should treat with skepticism and with a little bit of a distance, like Vladimir Putin of russia and north koreas kim jongun. He said that the president was constantly looking to strike a deal without any real nuance to understanding the problematic history of those countries, as well as some of issues that would come into play in any kind of negotiations. So he explained a number of different instances with regard to those talks. And ultimately he said that the president didnt really read a lot of his briefings. He said, you know, the Intelligence Briefings should happen on a daily basis, but that wasnt the case, and he really felt that the president wasnt reading much of his briefings at all. In fact, the one thing that he said the president had enormous interest in was the election. And he said he just wished that the president showed that kind of interest on National Security matters. Heres a look at what he said. I think he was so focused on the reelection that longerterm considerations fell by the wayside. There was considerable emphasis on the photo opportunity and the press reaction to it and little or no focus on what such meetings did for the bargaining position of the United States. Are you saying that all decisions the president made were driven by reelection . Thank you very much, el paso. Thank you very much. I didnt see anything where that wasnt the major factor. So, a lot of people have complained that he has a short Attention Span and he doesnt focus. I want to say, when it comes to reelection, his Attention Span was infinite. So there you heard john bolton talking about the president s interest in reelection issues. Versus National Security matters. And he said that he really wished that the president would have taken more of an interest in that. Focus on his Intelligence Briefings with regard to National Security matters, so that he was better prepared for different issues. Another issue that he focused on was the family of President Trump in the white house, Jared Kushner and ivanka trump, and he said that at one point the president actually diverted Media Attention to focus on a saudi arms deal that he was working on, even though it was in the middle of the murder of a saudi journalist, jamal khashoggi, two years ago. He said that the president purposely focused the Media Attention on a saudi arms deal at that time, despite its controversies, so that he would divert Media Attention away from another controversy that was in the news, and that is his daughters use of her personal emails at the white house. Vivian salama in washington. And you just heard vivian touch on mr. Trumps attempt to strike deals with dictators like north koreas kim jongun. John bolton thinks that thats been counterproductive and the regime is a bigger threat than ever, as it keeps working on its nuclear and Ballistic Missile program. Take a listen. Press mob, as you call them, comes in. As soon as they leave, you say the flattery began with kim jongun. Well, every president has a style, but the idea that just this layer of compliments to this brutal dictator would convince him that you could make a deal with trump i thought was both strikingly naive and dangerous. Cnns Paula Hancocks is standing by for us this hour in seoul, south korea. She joins us live. So, paula, in one of many stunning comments, bolton says the threat from north korea is greater now since President Trump took office. What else did he reveal and how did south korea respond to all of this . Well, rosemary, john bolton was pretty dismissive of President Trump when it came to his knowledge of the korean peninsula, calling him stunningly uninformed, saying that he was asking questions such as how did the peninsula become divided in the first place after the Second World War . He also claims that he told President Trump he did not believe meeting with kim jongun, the north korean leader, was a good idea, but President Trump went ahead with that anyway, saying that he believed that it was an important photo opportunity for him as opposed to any substance. The threat from north korea today is absolutely greater because while all these Photo Opportunities were taking place, theres absolutely no doubt that north koreas work on both its nuclear and Ballistic Missile programs continued. So on a scale of 1 to 10, how would you rate trumps ability to make a deal in north korea. Well, i think it turned out to be 0. Its not that hard to make a deal if youre prepared to give away nothing. Bolton also said that the fact the u. S. President decided to halt the war games, as he called them, the military exercises between the u. S. And south korea because kim jongun wanted that to happen. He said that that was an act of folly. And he also said that he was very concerned that donald trump was going to give away far more than he was going to achieve, saying that these summits effectively were good for donald trump but they were not good for the United States itself. Now, also, south korea comes in for some criticism, or at least the government itself with this book and with interviews of john bolton, saying that it was president moon and those around him who were pushing both sides, the u. S. And north korea, potentially unrealistically to try and secure a deal. There was a response from the National Security officer office chief yung just a little bit earlier today, saying it was written from his own expectative and does not truly reflect the facts. Rosemary . All right. Many thanks to our Paula Hancocks joining us live from seoul in south korea. So lets bring in amy pope now. She is an associate fellow with Chatham House and she joins me now from london. Good to have you with us. Good morning. So, john bolton says the threat from north korea is greater now since President Trump took office and he called mr. Trump my new years eve and dangerous. Whats your reaction to all of his comments in relation to this . Well, hes really stating something that many in the National Security community have suspected for some time. When we saw the president s interactions with north korea some time ago, it was clear he didnt really have a strategy. He did not have a team in place that was negotiating and looking for meaningful places to make exchanges that would benefit the United States, and it was really it appeared to be about showmanship versus substance. So john bolton is really just confirming that what everyone suspected all along is, in fact, true. And back on u. S. Soil, Trump Supporters and advisers going on the defensive after his tulsa rally attracted considerably fewer people than expected, only about 6,it00. The white house blames, of course, protesters and the media for reduced numbers. How damaging is this for the Trump Campaign . Along with the optics, of course, of a president willing to bring thousands of people together for his own political game in the midst of a pandemic. Well, i think we all know that it is certainly needling the president. He cares very much about the size of the crowds. He cares very much about demonstrating that hes extremely popular. So this is really going to needle him more than really anybody. But i think whats more troubling is the fact that were still in the middle of a pandemic. There are cases rising in states all across the United States. There is no sign, actually, that is that the country has the pandemic under control, and so the image of a president putting his constituents at risk, inviting them out and possibly intriguing the likelihood that theyll come into contact with the virus, that is more troubling from a policy point of view, and i think he risk paying a very big price for that in a few weeks from now, especially if people turn out to be infected from this particular rally. Right. Of course its worth noting he heads off to arizona. There are already problems there with increased cases. We will watch very carefully to see what happens there. But also the u. S. Attorney in manhattan, geoffrey berman, who has pursued President Trump and his allies, was forced out of his position in recent days by attorney general bill barr. Barr did not provide justification for pushing berman out. Did barrs actions undermine the rule of law . Well, look, the president has authority over who serves in these positions. They serve at the pleasure of the president , so there is no question he had the legal authorization to do this. And barr is his primary, the first in line when it comes do the justice department, had the Legal Authority to do it. But it really comes down to what it looks like how constituents will perceive this. Geoffrey berman is another republican that the president is turning against. It appears the president turns against anyone regardless of where they stand on the political spectrum if they call into question anything he does. And, of course, the u. S. Attorney had several open investigations into trump affiliates and some of the trump practices. So that really makes it look like this is about protecting the president s own interests versus protecting the party. So what impact do you think the pandemic, high unemployment, racial inequality, all of these other distractions that were seeing as well as all these sidebars. Looking at what happened to geoffrey berman. All of this in this country, what will be the impact, do you think, on the upcoming election . Well, i think we should expect that the president s base is going to stay with him throughout all of this. Theyve demonstrated theyre really not phased by anything that hes doing. On the other hand, sort of in the middle of the country, the middle of the road voter, people who are not specifically tied to one party or the other, their faith in the president and hi leadership must have eroded considerably, and then the real question is whats happening with more traditional republicans. Were seeing the president attract some of the partys stalwarts, someone like john bolton who was, you know, very, very strongly affiliated with republican hawks. That has to have some real damage. Now, whether that means those republicans would actually vote for biden, its not clear, but theyre certainly not going to be enthusiastically raising money for trump and getting out there and urging people to vote for him. In some cases, theyre urging them to vote against him. Interest. Amy pope, thank you very much for joining us. We appreciate it. Thank you. You are watching cnn newsroom. Still to come, the World Heath Organization is reporting a Record Number of new covid19 cases in a 24hour period, and the majority of it is coming from one place. We will tell you where that is. Thats next. Theres moving. And then theres moving with move free ultra. It has triple action support for your joints cartilage and bones.

This is the sound of greatness speaking german badly no shortcuts no magic stars speaking spanish badly speaking french badly being great means being pretty bad for a while and soon youll be Something Else speaking german perfectly speaking a new language Rosetta Stone how language is learned well, we are nearing 9 million coronavirus cases worldwide. As the World Heath Organization reports, more than 180,000 new cases on sunday. A Record Number from the organization in a 24hour period. And of the six global regions, the americas accounted for the vast majority of cases. Almost 120,000 reported on sunday. Nearly half of that total came from brazil. With close to 55,000 new cases reported in a single day. Victims are sometimes buried in mass graves like this one in brazil. Well, more than 350,000 people have died some coronavirus in brazil, almost 7,300 in the past week alone. The number of cases is is still rising and according to john hopkins university, brazil is the second country worldwide to surpass more than 1 million confirmed cases, following the u. S. China is still reporting new covid19 cases from a fresh outbreak linked to a food market in beijing, but the overall number of new infections in the chinese kpocapital has dropped. Cnns steven jiang has joined us now from beijing. Good to see you. Whats the latest on this . Well, rosemary, theyre expanding Testing Capacity in the city, 1 million per day. After a new cluster of cases following its reopening. Here in the Chinese Capital with that increased Testing Capacity, they have already tested some 2. 3 Million People. And now the irfocus focus is o people from key industries. Food and package and delivery people. Were talking about hundreds of thousands of people in this line of work. When you look at the broader picture, though, they have reported some 230 cases in the past 10 or 11 days. This is a city 20plus million residents. Still a tiny fraction of people. Thats how serious theyre taking this. The latest outbreak has started affecting business like multinational businesses like pepsi. Eight cases in a factory making potato chips in beijing, forced it to shut it down. None of the bottling plants have been affected, so still safe to drink their sodas and beverages. The experts say the chance to get the virus from eating potato chips made in that plantar going to be very slim. Rosemary, it will be interesting to see if the chinese are more hesitant to eat junk food because of this. Steven jiang, man thanks to you, bringing us up the to date on the situation in china. Appreciate it. Well, Coronavirus Infections in germany are rising again. On sunday officials reported a 60 spike in the virus reproduction rate in just one day. The rate now stands at 2. 88, which means that out of 100 people who contract the coronavirus, a further 288 people will get infected. Authorities link this leap to a massive outbreak at a Meat Processing plant in western germany. More than 1,000 cases have been confirmed there. Well, still to come, an exclusive cnn poll reveals stark divisions along racial lines in the uk. Those numbers next. A family in atlanta is preparing to lay their loved one to rest. A little over a week ago an Atlanta Police officer shot and killed rayshard brooks. His funeral is set for tuesday. Brooks death is the latest in a string of deadly encounters involving black men and the police. Last month george floyd died after a minneapolis Police Officer kneeled on his neck for nearly nine minutes. It set off the kind of nationwide unrest not seen since the civil rights era. George floyd. George floyd. George floyd. There have been weeks of protests from coast to coast with people of all races demanding justice for africanamericans. And cities around the country showing support for the black lives Mater Movement. In the uk extensive polling conducted by cnn in england, scotland and wales on the issue of racism has uncovered divisions between black and white people in their experience and attitudes towards race. The poll found black people are twice as likely as white people to say there is discrimination in british policing, media and politics. In this example, twice as many say they have experienced disrespect from police and think the country has not done enough to address racial injustice. 2 3 of black respondents said so. 58 of black people believe the governing conservative party is institutionally racist. The poll also sees a split between black and white respondents over the issues of statues and monuments to public figures associated with slave trade and the british empire. 2 3 of black respondents saying they were offended by the statues, compared to 1 3 of white people polled. Well, today is windrush day in the uk, named after the empire windrush liner that in 1948 brought thousands of caribbean families who answered the british governments call to come and help rebuild a country ravaged by the Second World War. And cnns Senior International correspondent nima elbagir is live at the Windrush Square in brixton. She joins us now. Good to see you, nima. So this cnn poll reveals a deep racial divide in the United Kingdom. Talk to us about how bad the problem is and what needs to be done about it. Reporter the findings are incredibly stark, rosemary. In some instances, as you said, it was almost twice as likely in terms of the differences of the experience of racism with regards to the experience of policing, with regards even to the potential for success that black people saw for themselves in their home country. In fact, black respondents were three times as likely to believe that being black had a fundamental impact on their ability to succeed professionally. White people in that instance believe that only 1 4 of them saw that that impacted black peoples ability to move forward professionally. So this is not just about a nation divided. This is about how many black respondents clear are not heard by many of those white respondents, are not believed by many of those white respondents. And this is going out on windrush day, a day in which the uk celebrates those migrants who answered the call to come and help rebuild the United Kingdom post the Second World War. Many of these respondents are the descendants, the children, the grandchildren of the migrants who were invited to come to the United Kingdom, and yet still all these decades later, rosemary, they do not feel at home in this, their home country. Is there any sense that something is being done about it . Reporter we have reached out to the police force and the National Police chief to ask them about the experience with policing. We reached out with the conservative party office, the conservatives are the ruling party, of course, here. To ask them about our black respondents experience of what they believe to be institutional racism on the part of the government. We received no response from them and many black respondents would find that unsurprising. After all, this is a Prime Minister who used in his former life as a journalist in a very popular publication here in the uk, the spectator used a colonialera racial slur to describe black people, one we wont refer to on air. This adds to the sense, rosemary, this was a racial reckoning in the making. People talking about the black lives Mater Movement coming over from the uk. Britain has been having its own racial reckoning, but it is part of this growing global momentum where black people are asking not just to be heard, but clearly to be believe, and these poll findings show starkly that they are not believed. Rosemary . Yeah, indeed. Many things to our nima elbagir in london. Nima will be back with more next hour, including more findings from that cnn poll, and the personal experiences of some black britains that give these numbers context. Well, to break down all these numbers for us, im joined now by cnn distributor darren lewis in london. Thank you very mu thank you so much, sir, for talking with us. Thank you for having me. Good morning from here in the uk. Yeah, good to have you with us. Cnns polling reveals major racial divisions, and much more than that, too, in the United Kingdom. Including this. Black people are more than twice as likely than white people to say uk police are institutionally racist, just over 1 4, 27 of white people, 54 of black people. What do those numbers reveal to you . Well, they dont really reveal anything new because as nima has been saying, black people in the uk have been living with the kinds of obstacles the numbers are showing all their lives. I love the term she used because shes absolutely right. Its a racial reckoning. Now people are using their voices to speak out against the injustice. If you look over the years, you look at the report of 1999 which was supposed to change the face of policing in the uk. Since then weve had more black men and women die in police custody. Christopher alder, derek bennett, rashaun charles, george floyd over there in the u. S. Over here in the uk there are still men and women who are losing their lives at the hands of heavyhanded police. If you look at other areas of the spectrum, rosemary, you see in media, for example, in 2001, the then director general of the bbc, a man named greg dike called the corporation hideously white. Now, this is our Public Service broadcaster in this country. 20 years on there are still precious few black men and women making decisions, taking decisions that affect the output of the station. If you look at the education system, rosemary, you know, theres this 13 attainment gap at university between black and white people. You look at for every 100 professors there are just 2 ethnic minority women. We still do not have black history interwoven in the curriculum in uk education. And if you look at sport, thats a good example, rosemary, because of the 12 biggest sports here in the uk, we have just one blackboard member. Black board member. Thats horrific when you think about the black contributors to sport over the years in the uk and then, of course, as nima and your other contributors have been saying through the course of your coverage, and the numbers show it up as well, you look at the uk cabinet and you see a cabinet with zero black members. So ive just covered a range of different areas of public life in the uk where the inequalities are stark and are laid bare by your cnn reports. All right. Indeed. And, of course, its not its not i mean, you understand when you look at those numbers why a lot of white people dont understand the depth of this. Because they dont experience it every single day. So at the core of this, is it education . And does Video Evidence that certainly weve seen here in the United States help educate people . Because a lot of white people here it was the curtain being drawn back and they were seeing some of these situations that they didnt necessarily know about and they were shocked, and as a result, they were getting out on the streets with their Black Brothers and sisters and saying enough is enough. So is it about education . Is it about letting the white folk and others know what is going on here . Because that that is half the problem, isnt it . Well, the good thing, the positive thing about the Global Civil Rights movement that were now seeing, and obviously were showing everyone with our pictures here on cnn, is that there are black and white people together taking to the streets. That video, if anything came good out of that horrendous video in which george floyd lost his life, it is the fact that it has awakened people to the scale of the injustice facing black people in the u. S. And over here black people are availing themselves of the facts, the facts that tell them that black men are several times more likely to be arrested by the police in the uk and twice as likely to die in police custody. They are twice adds likes likel fined during the coronavirus outbreak, for example, for a coronavirus breach than white people. A report out three years ago what it did, the wording of it was very stark, the angelini report of young black men as dangerous, violent and volatile. Its a longstanding trope that is engrained in our society today. This is what black men like me deal with on a daytoday basis, rosemary. Hopefully the awakening you talk about across the globe will help change this time around. It will, indeed. Yeah, we will look for that. I think it will indeed. Darren lewis, thank you very much for talking to us. We appreciate it. And well talk next hour. Thank you. Thank you.

Activists are telling british leaders they must tackle the racism plaguing black people in nearly every aspect of life as part of our initiative, confronting racism, exclusive polling conducted for cnn across england, scotland and wail uncovered how stark these racial divisions are in what is a disUnited Kingdom. One poll found 64 of black people believe the uk isnt doing enough to address historical racial injustice. And this british author explains how the black experience has been shaped by centuries of deeplyrooted racial inequality and why its time for change. No justice. No peace. No justice. No peace. No justice black lives matter. Our streets. Whose streets . Our streets. Theres a real tendency in britain to believe that racism and especially antiblack racism that originates from the history of slavery and colonialism is an american problem. We often sit in complacency and talk about how terrible things are in america. The irony is this is a form of racism and ideology that was invented here in britain. For black british people we have been living at ground zero with this ideology without any recognition of the ways in which it has shaped our lived experience. Its really fascinating how statues spontaneously became centers for protesters during this movement because nuo one ws really asking for them to be taken down in specific response to the murder of george floyd, but for so many of us they represent all the unfair parts of our history. The reality is we glorify people who were personally and institutionally complicit, even enthusiastic about the murder, the genocide, the appropriation of land and enslavement of black people. Many of the figures we elevate on statues were involved in military actions, admiral nelson known for defeating the french, a very important war for the british. He supported the slave trade. He used his political privilege to advocate against the abolition of the slave trade. Winston churchill rightly known for his role in enabling the allies to win the Second World War, but its not mutually exclusive to acknowledge that and also that he was obsessed with racist ideas about africans and indians, so much so his conservative educated colleagues were concerned that his racism was clouding his judgement. Until we can look at these statues in an honest way and have a conversation which has not been happen, i dont think its acceptable to leave them in these positions where theyre glorified in public spaces and all the messages that sends to british people about what we stand for as a nation. Whose lives matter . Black lives matter. Enough is enough. This is the movement 2020. Black lives matter. Black people in the uk are living the everyday legacy of the system of racism that was created. Many black people in britain are the descendants of immigrants who were specifically brought to this country to do lowwage labor, live in substandard housing, their children to receive an inferior education and we still see the results of that. Black children are so much more likely to be excluded from school. Black people are more likely to live in inaadequate housing.

Visit petmeds. Com today. Asian markets are starting off the week down. Investors are mulling over a potential second coronavirus wave after the weekend saw a global surge in new cases. You see there the hong kongs hang seng down 0. 46 . Cnns John Defterios joins me now live from abu dhabi. Good to see you, john. So we are seeing reemerging economic concerns on the medical front about a second wave, but at this stage, it seems investors are willing to overlook them. Why is that, do you think . Well, rosemary, the case right now where investors are looking at the swell here, the second wave thats coming on, and then they take their other eye and say theres 8 trillion thats been provided in terms of the liquidity to the Global Economy and trying to weigh the two. Does it hold back a recovery in 2021 . Because the markets act six to nine months down the road. If you take a look at the u. S. Futures, asia had some turbulence, but were at highs with gains of 8 10 of 1 . The nasdaq hovering at or above 10,000, the key level. If this holds for the second quarter, a gain of about 20 for the s p 500, were looking at a 20year high for a quarter. Its extraordinary. The allshare index worldwide is up 10 . Again, despite all the turbulence in emerging markets, that still a gain. What happens next . We have to keep an eye on china, of course. Theyre still hoping to grow by 3 , half the rate of last year, but president xi jinping may have to stimulate the economy to get the 3 in the second half. You saw the surge in india with the cases rising, emerging major markets. Even a state like california which is a g7 economy on its own, rosemary, had a Record Number of cases again. This could hold back that recovery in the United States already expected to contract by 6 this year. Finally well get an update on wednesday from the International Monetary fund, whats their forecast, whats the crystal ball look like for the second half of the year. Whats the worldwide recession .
