The downing of a russian fighter jet threatens to undermine efforts for a united front against islamic state. President obama, chancellor merkel, and nato have called for a deescalation of tensions between russia and turkey. Francine erdogan said no one can expect turkey to not react to violations. Turkey has no intent to escalate the situation. Manus lets bring in andrew. Great to have you back with us this morning. We just heard from erdogan. Francine and i did a double take. Theres the line. Erdogan doesnt want to escalate the situation. President who is absolutely prepared to saber rattle against the russians. You can take it two ways. The glass halffull is that weve had 24 hours now without another major incident, which is certainly wasnt clear yesterday morning when markets tanked. Nobody was talking about invoking nato article five. The glass half empty is the rhetorical escalation continues to rise. Despite what erdogan said this morning, he did take a couple swipes at russia. Russia deployed a cruiser in the mediterranean. Russia said it would shoot down any threats to its assets and said all its bombers would be accompanied by fighter jets now. Theres a lot that can go wrong. Francine i know a lot can go wrong, but in the next 40 hours, it doesnt escalate, are we in the clear . Still dont think that anybodys talking about some direct military confrontation. We had reports that there was bombing in areas controlled by turkmen who are loyal to turkey. That is kind of a hit maybe at a turkish proxy. But it is not direct. As long as we dont see another incident in the coming hours, days, it will probably be asymmetrical. We had russia say it found listeria in turkish chicken and will ban all turkish chicken exports. Theres a lot of economic ground. The 10,000 turks on vacation right now 10,000 russians on vacation in turkey, theres a lot of other routes russia could take. Manus merkel this morning saying the world needs to join together to fight islamic state, but she also said every country has the right to defend its territory. That echoes what obama said. It doesnt sound as if nato has any appetite to kowtow completely to putin at this stage. But if the russian version of events is that the plane never went into syrian airspace, if it did venture into syrian airspace, it would have been there for only seconds. Au are talking about warplane. It wouldnt have been there very long. I think as you alluded to before, this still is a Big International effort to try and diffuse this. Francine andrew, thanks so much. Andrew gordon, bloomberg managing editor. Residents have woken to a city back in operation. Francine the terror alert remains at its highest level. Jones hayden joins us now. I guess the mood is extremely cautious. It is back to business, but they still havent caught that terror suspect. Right. We still have the highest terror alert here. The main terror suspect is still on the loose. Theay, the prosser prosecutor put out an international warrant for another suspect who was seen driving to paris before the attacks. The investigation is going on. The subway is starting to reopen. The schools are reopening. We have a sense of back to business over here. I think people are focusing on that. There, butis still things are starting to operate the way they are supposed to again. Manus the latest on the investigation, what progress . This is a city which has been in lockdown. The whole focus was on delivering in this investigation. What news have we got so far this morning . Late yesterday, they charged another person with complicity in the paris attacks. Now theres five people that the Belgian Police have charged with taking part in some way in those attacks. The main suspect is still at large. They seem to be getting closer. They put out an arrest warrant for this other accomplice yesterday. They seem to be making progress. I think the mood is one of positiveness and things seem to be going ahead. Nothing has happened. We havent had any other specific scares or alerts. It seems like things are steady at this point. The terror alert is going to remain at least until next monday. We will see how things develop. Francine jones, thank you so much. Manus heres a look at what else is on our radar. The swiss unit of Deutsche Bank has agreed to pay 31 million to escape prosecutors and in a u. S. Investigation into banks that helped americans evade taxes. Deutsche was ordered a record 2. 5 billion for its role in breaking libor. Francine shares in abengoa have been suspended on the Major Stock Exchange until 11 00 a. M. This morning. Credit has sought protection proceedings after it pulled out of a plan to invest in the company. Manus the ufo union which represents lufthansa common crews says it is canceling flights strikes. Flight attendants and pilots are fighting plans to develop the euro wings division into a lowcost arm. Ufo said an agreement must be reached by december 2. Francine next, we are live in westminster as George Osborne prepares to make his spending pitch to the u. K. Manus welcome back. This is the pulse. We are live on bloomberg tv and radio. Here in london, the chancellor delivers the first autumn statement since the conservatives took office as a majority government. Anna edwards is live in westminster. What can we expect at 12 30 . The builders are cracking this morning. Anna thanks very much, manus. They are getting quite excited about what were going to hear from the chancellor about the housing sector. The big question involves the Budget Surplus. The chancellor is aiming for a Budget Surplus of 10 billion pounds by 2020. That is what he said last time we heard from him. Will he stick to that . Be broadlyng to about posterity. Where is the nice going to fall . Which departments are going to find those spending cuts to enable the chancellor to meet some of his deficit cutting targets . We will be focusing on where that night falls. Might the police be in the frame . That could be controversial. Weve heard about areas they want to spend money on. , 6sing, the Health Sector billion pounds this fiscal year. Weve heard about the fence at well. They want a 30 increase in spending on counterterrorism. Stuffadlinegrabbing could be around tax credits. That has been difficult for the chancellor. His plans in that area were kicked back by the house of lords. We will have to see what he delivers. We will be looking for him to surprise us as he usually does. Francine how much of this is political pitch . Very political of course. Everyone says this about every chancellor. Particularly about George Osborne. He enjoys more freedom because hes not in coalition government. Not held back by his coalition partners. Bear in mind, this is still a government with quite a small majority. They need to walk a careful line. He is still the bookmakers favorite to take over from David Cameron as the leader of the conservative party when that becomes necessary. He has, George Osborne, has recently had the battle with the house of lords to get his welfare cut plans through. That proved to be controversial. Hes also had a bit of a falling out with Junior Doctors in the National Health service. He wanted to change their contract. If he wants to look like more of a statement and less like a chancellor, that is something he will have to consider. He does have a big mandate for some of the changes hes bringing through. He would argue that he has a mandate for 12 billion pounds worth of welfare cuts. Hes quite a master at taking the weak spots and the challenges from other parties and turning them into his policy. We will see whether he does that once again. Francine thank you so much. Anna edwards will be speaking to the former shadow business secretary at 9 30. Manus a senior economist joins us this morning. Great to have you with us. Today is nowhere near his target for this year. Bloomberg intelligence ran some of the numbers. The target was to release white awayat to really swipe at overall borrowing. This is going to be a tough one, isnt it . It will be a tough one. The most important thing is to look for precedents. How hes maintained targets and not met targets. He will say we will see cuts of around 1 gdp per year. In reality, we are unlikely to see that. 2020, is surplus will be more a figment of imagination. Francine is that a good tactic . He talks tough, but then backs down. Is it a sensible policy to go slow, yes. From George Osbornes position, hes probably hoping to the Prime Minister at some point. He has to be the economic maestro in order to do that. He has two sides of the political spectrum to appease. He needs to make sure the economy is doing quite well and the people rely on his welfare spending. At the same time, conservatives want to see the budget down. This time, theyve got a majority on their own. , so debt low inflation payments are going to be lower. His index linked payments, hes going to make. He has got some assistance from this very lowflation this time, he does not have that excuse. The challenge is a political one. The economy, i dont think will let him down. If anything, it will boost this challenge. Francine how do you think he will surprise us . Is there something that many people arent expecting . At the end of the day, when you look at mark carney or George Osborne, they have a tight pact. Is there anything George Osborne can do today . I think the one thing he will be focusing on is the announcement about housing. We might see a rehashing of his pledges to cut corporation tax, raise minimum wage, to draw attention from the fact that he needs around 25 in daytoday spending cuts, which you simply cannot get around. Manus these stocks have rocked all year. Taylor wimpey up 4 . Persimmon. These are builders in the u. K. The headline we are expecting is that hes going to encourage the building of 400,000 homes, helped change the rules on help to buy and encourage developers. Economist, this country is so dependent on housing, isnt it . Yes. 100 . Manus the chancellor is going to go down in history as possibly the biggest bubble creator in the world. I wouldnt call him a bubble creator. The u. K. Has a chronic supply issue. The mistake with help to buy was that they had a demand solution to a supply issue. There is a supply side issue to deal with. From a purely political this political perspective, steadily raising house prices is a good thing. It drives the wealth effect. To maximize those benefits, you need as many people as possible to have houses. The problem is, we have structural issues with the Housing Market which limit the ability to draw supply. These big demandside stimulus programs the target of 400,000 is what we are hearing. Is there a great deal of promises and under delivery . Interested tovery see how he plans to do it. Manus very political. There are issues. They have issues with labor supply, just getting bricks for example. There was a brick shortage two years ago. Also, if you speak to certain bodies that deal with these problems, theres an issue with the house builders. Theres a lack of available supply. Before we can get a more flexible Housing Market, we need to have some consensus on the problem. You still face the problems that the current housing supply stock is facing. Manus we always got ministry of defense land. Francine one of the budgets that will probably get a little more love. Thank you so much. Manus we will bring you full viewers onr our u. K. The way on the autumn statement. That is live at 12 30. Francine next, we talk travel. A beat for thomas cook as the Company Posts the first profit global years despite cutting of its underlying business. More on that next. Francine welcome back. Spanish Energy Company abengoa is seeking credit protection after gone bari told out of a planned investment plan. Manus abengoa shares are currently suspended. For more, lets get to our Spanish Bureau chief, standing by. Charles, good to see you. Run us through the details. Theres been questions about liquidity, cash management, so take us through this. Thats right. This is the latest chapter in a long agony for abengoa. It has been trying to raise funds all year. There have been persistent doubts about its ability to generate cash. It has been trying to raise capital. We saw the shares rally quite sharply over this month when it announced this rescue plan by a Company Called gone bari. It said it would invest 350 Million Euros to become the biggest investor in abengoa. The news is that that investment has been pulled. The conditions were not met according to gone bari. That deal is over. Abengoa has taken the logical seekstep, to start to creditor protection. 350 million. I have to correct myself. I said 350 billion, which would be the size of the gdp of a small country. What does this tell us . When we saw the news, we were concerned that other firms would follow suit. That is a very interesting question. I think abengoa probably is a case in itself. It is a story that has been unfolding over the last year or so. It does raise questions about spanish business conglomerates, many of which come from a family ownership background, which was the case with abengoa. Its a story about corporate governance, about overleveraged, about how these companies adapted to the modern world. I think there is a wider story in spain about that. There are many cases of ,amilyrun companies in spain where probably some very hard questions should be asked about corporate governance. Francine manus charles, thank you very much. Cook,ne shares in thomas we were looking at those before. The secondlargest Tour Operator. The company swings into profit despite geopolitics. Caroline hyde is here. Manus stock is up 10 .

Both of them have a lot to lose. Source of the biggest turkeys imports last year, surpassing china. Some 12 of all tourists to turkey were from russia last year. A lot of companies could be affected, most of all in the oil and gas sector and also in airlines. ,f you look at guest from turkey relies on russia for about half its natural gas supply. Zprom as much as 10 billion last year. You could see an impact on the stock prices of rosneft and lukoil too. On the turkish side, i did a bit of digging, looked at equities.
