00:01:12"The FIFA crisis is far from over, no matter the apologies presented by
00:01:15the institution after Jan Infantino's project, since abandoned,
00:01:19to open up to private entities, UEFA
00:01:22is still boycotting the World Cups, Nicolas
00:01:25Chamontin.
00:01:27The apologies from FIFA's management are not enough. UEFA
00:01:31confirms that the boycott of the World Cups is still in effect.
00:01:35particularly from The member federations of UEFA have been very clear on the conditions related to
00:01:38their non-participation in FIFA
00:01:40support of competitions. These conditions have not been met. In addition to
00:01:44the abandonment of FIFA's commercial company project decided
00:01:47on Friday, the European football institution demands assurances
00:01:51that such an idea will never see the light of day. UEFA
00:01:54reaffirms having lost confidence in Gianni Infantino.
00:01:58On Wednesday evening, the head of the world body received the full support of his
00:02:01management, gathered in Morocco for a crisis meeting. In a
00:02:05statement, FIFA apologized after the
00:02:09controversy over opening up to private investors, a
00:02:12project that leaked to the press without the football stakeholders being
00:02:16informed. This Thursday, the South American Confederation
00:02:19Conmebol, despite being considered close
00:02:21company project, of which he wanted to become the to Infantino, in turn denounced the president's
00:02:24methods. The Conmebol council unanimously
00:02:27expresses its concern about the repeated
00:02:30unilateral actions, adopted without resorting to dialogue or the
00:02:34institutional mechanism provided for the handling of this type of
00:02:36situation. Apparently unshakeable a few
00:02:40weeks ago, Gianni Infantino seems
00:02:42exceptional rate since the declaration of more fragile than ever. The man who has led FIFA
00:02:45for a decade still
00:02:47Join us in the four corners of hopes to be re-elected next March thanks to the support of
00:02:50numerous federations in Africa and the
00:02:53leave because it's true that in the context of a FIFA Middle East. Journalist at
00:02:58new album "Boulevard" from Sofoot, Nicolas Kacismartov is with us. Good evening to you, thank you
00:03:00for answering our questions tonight. So, to what extent, in your opinion, is UEFA's voice,
00:03:03which has 55 members, strong, is it
00:03:07credible? You have to understand that we are not talking about the number of
00:03:11votes during a re-election congress. A priori, on this ground, Infantino
00:03:15is still capable of being re-elected, things can change between now and then.
00:03:19It's still next March, March 2027, so a lot of
00:03:23things can evolve, but the
00:03:26weight that UEFA has put is decisive, it's that a World Cup has
00:03:29an economic value, its sporting interest, so eventually
00:03:33the interest of private investors to come and buy and invest in the
00:03:36company, the commercial company that Gianni Infantino
00:03:39wants to found and
00:03:41It is an exercise to evacuate the Taiwanese wants to lead, well, it largely October 2007, the Ark of Zoe relies on European national
00:03:44teams, just like the famous Club World Cup that he
00:03:47hastily set up in the United States recently. So, in fact, UEFA's weight is
00:03:51simple: the economic heart, the beating heart of money,
00:03:56I'll see you in the Africa news on where it flows abundantly, including Hankuang. The aim of where African players go to get their salaries, etc. The market for
00:04:00outlets and South American players are still in Europe, and therefore
00:04:04any threat of a boycott of the World Cup
00:04:08de facto destroys the interest of a commercial company
00:04:11from within. So FIFA has pulled out a
00:04:13also add the cost of kind of nuclear weapon to thwart Mr. Gianni Infantino's
00:04:16project. But the scenario of a World Cup
00:04:19without UEFA is truly
00:04:23conceivable. It can indeed happen,
00:04:27but who would want to invest? What commercial
00:04:30company would want to put money in if there are no major
00:04:34national teams? I remind you that at the last World
00:04:37Cup, there were six European teams out of eight in the quarter-finals, and
00:04:41the winner was Spanish. And Spain, excuse me,
00:04:43Spain is the reigning champion. Furthermore, the market
00:04:47also, what are the outlets for TV rights, for
00:04:51commercial dimensions? China, like
00:04:54India, is... China has become a bit disinterested in soccer lately.
00:04:57India doesn't pay
00:05:00excessive attention to it, and there isn't a monstrous market there for now. So, without
00:05:04Europe, it's economically unimaginable. It can hold
00:05:07up from a strictly sporting point of view, but you
00:05:10notice that from this point of view, for
00:05:13Infantino, who wants to absolutely keep power, he also tries to placate
00:05:17UEFA because there hasn't been a frontal attack or an offensive
00:05:20response to the threats that should have
00:05:23aroused his anger from UEFA and
00:05:27its president Mr. Safina. So what can be the
00:05:30consequences of
00:05:33UEFA? Can we imagine that other
00:05:36confederations will follow? We know that CONMEBOL
00:05:39has indeed expressed some
00:05:42reluctance.
00:05:45In fact, I repeat again, we are dealing with pure capitalism here. On one
00:05:49side, you have Infantino's financial logic of always more money, whatever the cost, and on the other
00:05:52side, you have UEFA, which is on a marketing logic, marketing, we will protect the
00:05:56product, give it value, protect what it represents so that we can
00:06:00gradually continue to generate profits.
00:06:03UEFA has done perfectly well with, for example, the Champions
00:06:06League, but the essential fact is that he doesn't even
00:06:10need to call for a boycott from other federations. If UEFA doesn't go to the World
00:06:14Cup, no one will want to go, no one will want to follow it, no one will
00:06:18want to pay for it. So it's not even necessary for there to be a
00:06:21rally around UEFA, and that's the problem Infantino is facing. That's why he's backing
00:06:25down, as he felt obliged to, just as he had to
00:06:29backtrack at one point on the idea of a World Cup every 2 years because UEFA was
00:06:33opposed to it. He has an economic heart, and he is somewhat a victim of a
00:06:36boomerang effect of his purely economic logic: money, and for
00:06:40now, Europe and the other confederations. Never against
00:06:43that. The fact remains that confidence in Gianni Infantino,
00:06:47UEFA, is largely
00:06:50eroded. He has the the FIFA
00:06:54institution. Is it nonetheless
00:06:57unthinkable at present for Gianni Infantino to resign?
00:07:00So clearly it's not
00:07:04in the cards, it's not what appears. Now, we are in a situation that we have
00:07:07never experienced before at the head of FIFA.
00:07:10Mr. Blatter had been dismissed, but there had
00:07:14been personal affairs, accusations of
00:07:17impropriety that were, incidentally, cleared, so to speak, by the
00:07:21Swiss justice system, which is not very vigilant on these matters. But it is a very
00:07:24original situation that we are facing, it is difficult to predict. What is
00:07:28certain is that Mr. Infantino absolutely wants to stay in power, and his commercial
00:07:33commissioner, the, so to speak, manager, even after his
00:07:37departure from FIFA, showed his desire to continue to enrich himself because he
00:07:41enriches himself enormously with football, and to continue, in a way, to hold
00:07:44the reins of world football. If you have the money, we will
00:07:48not lie, especially for a structure like FIFA, which is not really
00:07:51brilliant when it comes to the development of football for all,
00:07:54you somehow maintain
00:07:58control of affairs. No, but Infantino for now doesn't want to
00:08:01leave, I don't know how he could
00:08:05congress he would surely still have a majority, the question is would it be
00:08:09as strong as before, he was unanimous, and secondly if... UEFA
00:08:13continues to enter this conflict which has been ongoing for a long time, people don't necessarily
00:08:17know, but for example UEFA suspects Infantino of being behind the Super
00:08:20League project which aimed to undermine its authority, if it continues like
00:08:24this, imagine a congress where he is re-elected but UEFA decides to
00:08:27secede, anything is possible today, he has opened a
00:08:31window of possibilities that we didn't imagine possible and his weight is
00:08:34all the more important, finally, as you said, he has his
00:08:38eyes turned towards his succession, especially since there are
00:08:41no declared candidates for his
00:08:44succession, except himself.
00:08:47For now, no one has officially declared themselves. The names that
00:08:51are circulating are all close people and personalities who have very similar
00:08:55profiles to his. He himself was a former protégé of
00:08:58Mr. Blatter and a friend of Mr. Platini,
00:09:01which he betrayed. So I don't think we should
00:09:05imagine that Infantino's departure would be a revolution. Perhaps the
00:09:09successor would give guarantees to UEFA to forget this
00:09:12story, and we would start on new foundations. Moreover, there are projects that
00:09:15continue, that are still underway. He also has the question of moving to
00:09:1964 teams qualified for the World Cup, the partnerships with
00:09:22countries like Saudi Arabia. So I don't think someone who would take over would be
00:09:26necessarily different in FIFA's economic project. He
00:09:30would perhaps be more prudent and, how
00:09:33can I say, more attentive to managing
00:09:37sensitivities and operating methods, which is what he is being criticized for
00:09:40across the entire football world, including in Africa. It's the way he
00:09:44had, that he had, of wanting to impose this in record time without telling
00:09:47anyone, that the leaders, the presidents, discovered things in the
00:09:50press. It's something that has somewhat traumatized this very discreet world where things are
00:09:54decided behind closed doors. They had the feeling of being ousted, while everyone
00:09:58wants a piece of the pie. Thank you very much, Nicolas Kassi Smartov,
00:10:02journalist at Sofoot. Thank you for answering our questions tonight.
00:10:04Thank you very much. Antonio
00:10:08Guterres, the UN Secretary General, has condemned both Russia and Ukraine
00:10:12for the attacks of recent days on civilian areas. Both sides
00:10:15are intensifying their strikes. Kyiv targeted several Russian oil
00:10:19refineries on Thursday. Moscow bombed the regions of Kharkiv
00:10:22and Sumy. Nicolas Chamontin.
00:10:26Guided bombs fell around 2 am in Sumy.
00:10:30In this city in northern Ukraine, a Russian attack damaged
00:10:34residential areas and shops, and surprised residents.
00:10:37It was as if aliens had arrived, the explosion was so
00:10:43the apartment, I barely had time to get out. Several
00:10:46people were injured in Sumy and
00:10:50the region. Authorities also report casualties in
00:10:54the archive region, a little further east. Russian strikes that
00:10:57come on top of those on Wednesday on the Kyiv region as well as on
00:11:01Kramatorsk. 500 children and their families who still lived in
00:11:05this eastern city had to be evacuated due to the violence of the
00:11:08attacks. Although the Ukrainian army manages to intercept most
00:11:12of the drones, it has great difficulty stopping the
00:11:15missiles. This weakening is attributed by President
00:11:18Zelensky to delays in interceptor deliveries
00:11:22compared to 2025.
00:11:26Ukraine has started to receive about three times fewer anti-ballistic missiles
00:11:29to defend our state, this situation is mainly related to the
00:11:33war, or as it is now fair to say,
00:11:37to hostilities and wars in the
00:11:39Middle East.
00:11:43Last week, Volodymyr Zelensky once again went to
00:11:47Washington to convince Donald Trump to deliver him
00:11:50Patriot systems, the only ones capable of intercepting the most
00:11:54powerful Russian missiles. A request refused by the American
00:11:57president due to the shortage of Patriots in his stocks
00:12:01since the start of the war in the Middle East. At the same
00:12:04time, Kyiv continues its attacks on Russian territory. On Thursday,
00:12:08a fire broke out in this important refinery in the Yaroslavl
00:12:11region, about 250 km northeast of
00:12:15Moscow. According to the local governor, all drones
00:12:18launched by Kyiv were intercepted, but fragments hit
00:12:21storage tanks and injured several people.
00:12:26We will now return to these negotiations that seem to be well underway
00:12:30between Oman and Iran for the reopening of the Strait of
00:12:33Hormuz. Good evening, Lord Mannin. Well
00:12:36underway, but there's a big "but" that the United States is tackling, and they say that Donald
00:12:40Trump is an obstacle. Yes, absolutely. Iran and Oman have, in fact,
00:12:43agreed on a transit route within the Strait of
00:12:46Hormuz, but Tehran warns
00:12:50that this would only be possible if, and I quote, "third
00:12:53parties do not interfere," and the process implies that Washington will not
00:12:57meddle. Let's remember that since the beginning of the
00:13:00war against Iran, Tehran has retaliated by closing and blocking the Strait of Hormuz, through
00:13:04which usually circulates one-fifth of the world's oil
00:13:08and gas. So, it seems like good news, this agreement.
00:13:12Alas, the markets are much more cautious than one might
00:13:15imagine. In fact, the price of oil has started to rise again because,
00:13:19at the same time, the Yemeni Houthi rebels
00:13:22who are on the peninsula south of the
00:13:25Arabian Peninsula are blocking the Strait of Bab-el-Mandeb by bombing and
00:13:29attacking Saudi oil tankers, which is not reassuring for
00:13:32now. North Sea Brent has therefore risen by about 2% to
00:13:36around 80 dollars a barrel for American WTI, it's over
00:13:4066 dollars for now. So Donald Trump himself
00:13:43looks at oil prices with some concern, because if black
00:13:47gold is too high, it has a direct influence on the cost of living for
00:13:51the United States, of course, for the Americans and on his popularity.
00:13:54Exactly. Because the price of a gallon of oil
00:13:57has increased a lot in the United States since the war started.
00:14:01Before the bombings against Iran in February, a gallon
00:14:04was 3 dollars per unit. It is now
00:14:08over 4 dollars, with even a peak at almost 5 dollars in
00:14:12May. The price of gasoline weighs on transportation, road transportation which is very important
00:14:16in the United States and serves to transport obviously all everyday
00:14:19consumer products, including food. Inevitable consumption
00:14:23for Americans who find themselves having to dedicate an increasingly
00:14:27important part of their budget to their daily consumption. Inflation
00:14:30has therefore increased a lot and it is very clearly linked to these
00:14:34bombings in Iran. To this, we must
00:14:38the US military intervention in the country, which represents about
00:14:41150 billion dollars, according to the chief
00:14:44economist of the Mousiz agency, and that represents
00:14:471100 dollars per American household. So we are
00:14:51far from the improvement of the situation for Americans
00:14:54that Donald Trump promised in his mandate. He had made the
00:14:57cost of living the mandate of
00:15:01his, the motto of his
00:15:04second mandate. So this weighs very heavily on the population's budget
00:15:07and it costs him dearly because indeed his unpopularity has
00:15:11never been so great. So at the same time, Donald Trump also has to manage
00:15:14internal opposition. 25 states
00:15:17are challenging the latest tariffs he implemented a
00:15:21few days ago to effectively, or at least
00:15:23officially, fight forced labor. Yes, these are
00:15:27new customs duties of 10% and 12.5%
00:15:30applied to some sixty countries and the European Union. Indeed,
00:15:34they were implemented very recently, since July 24th, and
00:15:38it is indeed officially, according to Donald Trump, to punish states that
00:15:42resort either directly to forced labor or that do not put enough measures in place to
00:15:46fight this scourge. However, 25 American states, two
00:15:49of which are led by Republicans, have decided to challenge
00:15:53this measure in court, and this is not Donald Trump's first setback
00:15:57on his customs policy, since in February the Supreme
00:16:00Court rejected the first customs duties he had put in place, these punitive
00:16:03duties, and forced him to reimburse on his...
00:16:0729 billion euros that were requested for reimbursement by
00:16:11importing companies in the United States, and 100 billion have already been
00:16:14reimbursed by the Trump administration, and that is not
00:16:17going to improve the purchasing power
00:16:20of Americans either, and therefore the popularity of Donald Trump. Thank
00:16:24you very much, Lore Mannin.
00:16:28With 3973 confirmed cases, including
00:16:311801 deaths, the 17th Ebola epidemic that has occurred
00:16:35in the Democratic Republic of Congo is the most important
00:16:38the country has ever known. A suspected case has just been reported on a boat that was heading to
00:16:42Kinshasa, the capital. The spread of the virus is worrying, but the
00:16:45response is being organized, a treatment center has opened in
00:16:49Bouna in the northeast. Clarisse Fortuné.
00:16:53Healthcare workers in eastern DRC are intensifying their
00:16:56fight against Ebola. This new treatment center in Bunia
00:17:00is expected to become the largest in the country. It is designed to
00:17:04handle the increasing number of patients. So the work is in
00:17:07the process of being finalized. It is a 100-bed center, with a
00:17:11capacity of 100 beds, of which 60 beds are for
00:17:14confirmed cases and 40 beds for suspected cases.
00:17:18We have over 300
00:17:21staff who will work in this center, and we are counting
00:17:25on the community to be able to
00:17:28accelerate the process of identifying cases.
00:17:32The epidemic is caused by the rare Budiboo strain of the
00:17:35Ebola virus, for which there is currently no approved vaccine or treatment.
00:17:39But according to the World Health
00:17:42Organization, research protocols developed before the start of the epidemic
00:17:46have made it possible to accelerate the evaluation of new
00:17:48treatments. If we compare this epidemic to previous
00:17:52Ebola outbreaks, we were able to launch clinical trials much more
00:17:56quickly. This is due to the very promising progress
00:18:00made in our way of conducting research and development,
00:18:03because the protocols had been drafted even before the start of the epidemic.
00:18:08This is precisely the direction that the global scientific community seeks to
00:18:11adopt in the face of epidemics: to maximize preparation
00:18:15upstream. The Bundibugyo strain of the virus has been spreading at an
00:18:20the epidemic in May. More than 3700 confirmed cases and
00:18:23more than 1650 deaths have now been recorded, making
00:18:27it the largest Ebola epidemic ever recorded in the country.
00:18:31Several experimental vaccines and treatments are now progressing
00:18:34in parallel, raising hopes that the
00:18:37Ebola epidemic will finally have effective tools to slow its
00:18:41spread.
00:18:45It's a ritual since 1984. Taiwan
00:18:48has begun its annual military exercises. They are scheduled to last 10 days.
00:18:52The island, which has increased its defense spending under pressure from the United States, is conducting large-scale
00:18:55maneuvers, preparing for a potential
00:18:59Chinese invasion. China makes no secret of its ambition to acquire what it
00:19:02considers to be one of its provinces. Luke,
00:19:05if you are there. In the streets of
00:19:09Taipei, armored vehicle maneuvers with the President,

00:19:19head of state from his office to a secret base with his
00:19:23defense minister. For
00:19:2510 days, the island lives to the rhythm of these military exercises named
00:19:30the operation is to verify the speed of reaction if China
00:19:34attempted to paralyze command centers in particular, but
00:19:38also logistics such as ports or military industry
00:19:41sites. Our forces are training for combat
00:19:45against the enemy threat. This shows our preparation, strengthens
00:19:49our operational capabilities, our defense, and our high-level
00:19:52combat readiness. Our power will deter any enemy aggression,
00:19:56preserve national security and regional
00:19:58stability. A stability undermined by
00:20:02Beijing. China threatens to invade Taiwan, which it considers
00:20:06to be a part of its territory, to carry out what it calls reunification. Xi Jinping
00:20:10does not rule out using
00:20:13force. The deterrence offered by American
00:20:16support for the island is weakened by Donald Trump's unpredictability.
00:20:20After his visit to Beijing in May, the American
00:20:24president was conciliatory with the Chinese
00:20:27number one. Taiwan is now awaiting congressional approval
00:20:30for an arms sale of 14 billion dollars.
00:20:34It is currently on hold by the Trump
00:20:37administration.
00:20:40Japan commemorated the 81st anniversary of the dropping of the
00:20:43first atomic bomb by the Americans on Hiroshima.
00:20:46A ceremony was held at the city's Peace Memorial
00:20:50Park. A minute of silence was observed in tribute to the tens of
00:20:54thousands of dead, the exact number is not known. On this
00:20:57occasion, the Prime Minister reaffirmed the country's commitment to its non-nuclear
00:21:01principles.
00:21:04Our nation firmly defends the three anti-nuclear principles,
00:21:08and as the only country in the world to have suffered atomic bombings in wartime,
00:21:12it has a mission to relentlessly pursue its efforts towards
00:21:15the creation of a world without nuclear
00:21:17weapons.
00:21:19This is the straw that could break the camel's back. The city of
00:21:23Annecy wants to limit the number of boats rented by private companies,
00:21:27but the announcement is not well received by tourism professionals. Théo
00:21:30Laroche.
00:21:32On Lake Annecy, more and more boats and waters that have become
00:21:35overcrowded, with a parade of customers on the pontoons who came to
00:21:39enjoy these small boats rented by private companies. Make
00:21:43sure to turn off your engine when you go swimming, there is always one person who stays in
00:21:46the boat. At the end of July, the town hall issued an order...
00:21:50prohibiting the rental of boats from public pontoons. A great
00:21:54disappointment for this professional, it's a bit
00:21:56complicated because we, for the season, had
00:21:59a coup, we're going to say, an administrative loophole that allowed
00:22:03us to rent like that and in the middle of the season, even though we had to make
00:22:07investments because we had the right to do that, they kind of pulled
00:22:10the rug out from under us without dialogue. In one year,
00:22:14these private boat rentals have almost doubled, according to the town hall.
00:22:17There are other places for professionals, but this one
00:22:21has trouble hiding his bitterness. "We set up a
00:22:24company, the boats are amortized, we're finally starting to earn salaries
00:22:27from it, and now the mayor wants to take our jobs." According to the town hall, this
00:22:31commercial activity obstructs bicycle and
00:22:34pedestrian traffic, it occupies the boat launches used by sailing
00:22:37clubs, and threatens wildlife and flora. This decree is intended
00:22:41to put a stop to practices that are not regulated, it is intended to put a
00:22:45stop to the passive use of these pontoons on which one
00:22:49can stay, remain parked indefinitely. For
00:22:52now, the town hall is focusing on prevention. As soon as the
00:22:55prohibition signs are installed in a few days, offenders
00:22:58will face a fine of €150.

00:24:37humanitarian couple claimed to offer a second chance to orphans from
00:24:41Darfur. Children who for the most part resided in Chad with their
00:24:45families. They say "you sold your children, but who
00:24:49sells their child"? It's because we were promised an education that we
00:24:53accepted.
00:24:56It was child abduction, a real
00:24:58kidnapping. We heard many
00:25:02stories,
00:25:06maybe make us work at
00:25:07the factory.
00:25:15They told us that each child would receive 6000
00:25:17euros. They received
00:25:20nothing.
00:25:23If the person admits their mistakes and asks for
00:25:26forgiveness, then you know that they have
