as not confirmed and fed up with high taxes, farmers in argentina, why they attracted to the presidential palace in the capitol and on certified field sports rounds up the media. ammonia grand prix has just started, and tyson ferry knox out of whites are insane, is heavyweight boxing title, but then announces his plans to retire. ah, thank you for joining as we begin in france, where people are voting in the run off presidential election incumbent emanuel mccall and marine le pen, the leader of the national ronnie party, a vine for the top job. my coin is hoping to secure a 2nd term turn out so far is slightly lower than the last election in 20. 17 bernard smith reports and paris. voters faces stark choice in front of the 2 presidential candidates or centrist pro european union emanuel macro, 44 year old incumbent cast his vote, and look to k on sunday morning, or the can vote for the fall. right. euro sceptic, marine le pen. it's the 2nd time they've gone head to head in a ronald in 2017, a so called republican front helped micron when voters who agreed on little else came together to stop the far right. taking the presidency this year, both candidates want the votes of supporters. a far left candidate, john luke melon, shaun, he won just one percent less of the vote. pamela pen in the 1st round, last a city sees unity matters. and the fact that we never tried mat in the pen, i'm not going to hi, good you for me. they were 2 options. it was either surviving europe with micron or leave in france with marine la pen. the choice was crystal clear for me concierge. i think there is an important choice to be made to day. on the one hand we have a president, that is what it is. and on the other hand, a woman who does not share the same values of democracy. so we must vote against her brothers before somali of another without democracy. i think everybody can feel that we are in trouble times are in the world, in friends. and it's important to remember that if we have, i want you t n one rights is the rates of micron has struggled to shake off a perception he's aloof. the label president of the rich a stock that's even though data shows all but the poorest 5 percent of french households a better off than they were 5 years ago in japan has focused on the rising cost of living, one of the main concerns of french voters she says to prioritize french citizens over immigrants for public housing and jobs, and la pan has played down her promise to ban muslim women from wearing had scarves in public. this is the closest the far right as come to winning power in france. turn out will be important. it's the middle of these to holidays. how many people are away from the place where they need to cast their vote at midday? 26.4 percent of those registered to vote. cast a ballot. i compare that to 2017 where i turn out at this time was about 28 percent . burnett's with al jazeera hats and live not to another correspondence in paris, natasha butler was also a pulling station in central paris. all eyes on the turn out as bernard said, they're how, how has the voting going, where you are required to the polling station was a bit busy at a police station. i was at the early, but i mean what we're saying, here's what you heard in, but it's package that the school holidays have become in many parts of fraud. that is why in places like paris, you might, if you less people, the polling station, it doesn't mean they didn't vote because many people have decided to focus on proxy was perhaps they leave town for a break. what we know across the country from the interior ministry is that the turn as at mid day, local time was about 26 percent. now that is lower than it was and previous elections in 20172012. but it is just a fraction higher than it was in the 1st round of this election 2 weeks ago left the percentage point high. and i want you to read into that you can certainly for the 2 candidates in this race, they'll be pleased that people are continuing to turn out the least of the same levels as they were in the 1st round. rather than not turning out a tool. it is, of course a battle between 2 very different fissions, the frauds you have, the manual micro, the centuries incumbent. he's looking for 2nd term. he says next 5 years would be a pro e u, reformist agenda for him. and then on the other hand, marine the pen, anti immigration, she wants to buy and the head golf in public and fraud. she was a rep rendon or national identity to very different visions of france. but both saying that they would address one of the main issues in this campaign, the cost of living that also create more jobs. i was going to ask you about that. what is the most important issue for french voters, as they can say about it today? well, the cost of living again and again is something that comes up no matter where you go in frauds who you speak to, whether it's a market where you're talking to people who are the business, they all talk about their concerns over rising prices on food fuel on food or supplies on products, every one is why they are seen prices go up, it is their reality, it is what they are living. and that is why they are really looking to see which presidential candidate might make their own lives financially a little bit easier. they are concerned, of course, about jobs. the war in ukraine is overshadowed or the latter half of this election . also, other issues though the cove it pandemic still very much in people's minds of the management of that by the government. also immigration, a security and crime. but what is interesting is, in a 2nd round of election, it, it tends to be quite different than the 1st round, the 1st, where people will often vote for an issue. they feel very close to climate change. for example, in the 2nd round, what they are doing is looking at these 2 candidates in this case, micro and the pen. and they are trying to decide who is the most presidential who is going to run the country in the most competent man. and that will be something on people's minds when they go to the ballot box, because they might not necessarily agree with either sides politics. natasha. thank you for that. natasha butler life or as they're in paris. let's discuss the french election further now with the josephina baron. jose political and miss edler think tanks, you know, ph is joining us from a chassis on the island of corsica, the french highland of corsica. josephine, thank you so much for being with us. ah turnout, slightly lower, but you know, many a saying that doesn't mean anything necessarily. but when you look at the poll says, suggesting leading up to that the 2nd round, they're suggesting a hi obsession. what, why is this election so disappointing for many french me? well, as you said, it's very disappointing for most french people because we are a replay into the game of a 20175 years ago when we are already had an image in my cool and mat in the band facing, facing each other in the 2nd rounds of the election, this sign, it's lots of the same in, i'm in my food and it's not the same. my name is ben imminent, mike, who has 5 years of presidency. and now he has a things to be a principal for. and mounting the ben is less radical, at least in her positions in her program political program. so it's 2 different candidates and 5 years ago, but still for the french citizens, it is the same game over and over again. and the same visions to opposite visions are friends of the you and of the world. or let's take a closer look at some of the policies between them. i mean, starting with the e. u, they are those who have said josephine that the use future hinges on this election, do you agree with that? is this a vote a referendum on the it is in a way i we friends am full, are against the you. it is. everybody knows now that the prison on eminent michael is pro you and has a vision of a power for a you. and he has shown that in the previous 5 years. and on the other hand, we have a modeling. the ben was voters and show that there are concerns about the you about the use power over an emission, saida. and so it is 2 different visions of the you and of a friends within the you that are actually fighting. and i today, but no pen is no longer talking about pulling france out of the u. s. she was in the past, or even the single pulling france out of the single currency, the euro, to what do you attribute this change in? spans the softening. it would seem over stance on the you yeah, well, she's this radical because she wants to a touch more and more people and leaving me you like the u. k. a did a previous years ago. it is to radical or lot of people who question the added value of being part of the you. but at the same time, a who value the facts that are being part of the you adventure of the you. integration is as something good overall for the french citizens. so she's less radical, but she wants to revise the treaties and she also wants to revise a new shingle laws are about integration. and the man laments program on the you is not an exit, but she wants to revise it and it could provoke an institutional crisis at b, e. u local. all right, but as we heard from our correspondent just a moment ago, the cost of living is really what matters the most to french people to day from bureau between these 2 candidates who, who's got the most solid program when it comes to addressing this issue of the cost of living well, when it comes to a economy imminent, michael has shown to be very solid as a, as he said. and in the previous debates that we had wednesday, i, everybody said that you won the economic part of the debate because he was more sure of his numbers than mine. the been was. but now a french people, they don't just look at discourses and a words on economy. they're looking at facts and a lot of money. the benz voters, as see that at the end of the month, they have less money than they used to have 5 years ago. even though it mother my phone proofs of by, with the numbers that he, it's not real a so it is 2 different visions of the cost of living off of evolution of the economy in friends that are opposing each other a today. thank you so much for talking to us josephine. thank you for your analysis . josefina baron is a

with more on, on what's expected on the visit by the u. s. tom diplomat and the secretary of defense. it's no surprise the washington has said no comment. why is that not surprising? will it's typical that when a senior us official makes a visit to a war zone out of security reasons. typically, the public doesn't find out about it until during or sometimes, not even until after the visit has concluded. we know that this is going to be the 1st time that such high ranking use officials have visited ukraine since the beginning of the war. and it is going to be a very symbolic visit. we're having to secretary members who will be there in key of on orthodox easter in this is the secretary of state of the u. s. and the secretary of defense zalinski had said that he still wants to extend an invitation to you as president joe biden. but despite you know, the u. k prime minister being there in person, despite other presidents having visited with the u. s. assessment is that it's still

economic adviser at the center for economics and business research. she says, monetary bodies were forecasting high inflation even before the war in ukraine. we had seen good prices on prices and freight charges for transporting anything from anywhere around the world going up very significantly. and that had been leading those people to downgrade the forecast anyway. so i was expected, it would happen, but the interesting thing is it happened with a vengeance if you like, in the sense that they had to add to the impact of the warranty ukraine. and additionally, of course, they did this huge uncertainty as to how long the one, the brain will last and what will happen after it goes why the world bank has already announced its $170000000000.00 support fund. that is a crisis fund which they had something quite similar during the cobra crisis, but they've got this one now which is going to be some slowly building up over the next year or so for the poor countries which are indeed going to fall into serious debt crashes, those countries that do not have the sort of luxury of being major. a food producers or food export just they are the ones that are suffering quite significantly. so the bank is worried that something like 60 percent of the countries are looking at are going to be falling into serious debt issues and they going to have to step in how long this will last is the real question. because on the food side, you know, want to see what is happening with 30 lies a cost going up significantly. farm is not going to use, specializes as much as they would have done, otherwise they're not going to put down, you know, the crop. so they would have done otherwise. so the problems with good security may last a lot longer than those for energy

came to argentina's capital to protest against the government of alberta for a man this and that it millis travelled from the province of santa fe, he explained why he and others like him are at risk. not look way penalty in this on it. we cannot produce like this. all of us end up renting or forums because small scale farmers and up renting their long term international corporations who can afford to bear that enormous talks. birds are we have food. prices are rising worldwide driven up by the war in ukraine. this has put argentinean producers on alerts. farmers say taxes, export taxis, drought

protest against the administration of a lot of the fire members. they say they tired of the inflation rated, was close to 7 percent last month. end of the difficulties they pay every month. they're saying that the government has no economic plan and they will grow chrissy and the restrictions implemented by the administration. 2 hurting and argentina's productive sector. last march, the government increased export taxes on soybean flour, annoy, seeking to control local prices and stabilize the price of wheat to what it was before ukraine's conflict. it also says farmers are overreacting and there are no plans to increase export taxes again, at least for now. yeah. but i can oh to other than the on it we have an increased sport taxes under producers. so they're marching just in case they're marching against the project. it on no or imagined could happen. so we have no doubt this is a political demonstration that the has to do with of interest than defending the rights of the farmers. that is a good journalist like might be along on he say, the situation in flames. already long running tensions between the government and the agricultural sector, gumble video, even though it's taylor as the farming sectors in a strange situation. because like most countries in the world where they produce more food than they consume with is a chance to make profit. argentina has a super awesome food and could export more grain. milken meat, butts, and argentina's case the bitter prices. dont always benefit the farmers. well the so the constant trouble between producers and the government and that's why farmers vowed to continue with their demands. lacy government assistance would help them to produce more, something they say would benefit argentina's economy and the whole world really so as to see that one aside of voting is underway in slovenia, in what's expected to be tied to parliamentary election. the right wing populous party prime minister
