You're listening to the Globalist, first broadcast on the 18th of November, 2024 on Monocle Radio.
The Globalist in association with U.
Live from London.
This is THE Globalist with me, Emma Nelson.
A very warm welcome to today's program.
Coming up.
You know, one year ago we met.
In the Woodside Summit in San Francisco.
And I'm very proud of the progress we both made together after APEC.
Now the G20, the world's most powerful leaders head to Brazil where once again China and the prospect of President elect Trump will no doubt be shaping the agenda.
Also ahead in the next 60 minutes, we find out how violence surrounding a football match in central Amsterdam nearly brought down the Dutch government.
We'll hear about six major storms hitting the Philippines in three weeks, examining the country's ability to withstand such an onslaught by nature.
We'll go through Monday's newspapers, look at the latest business headlines and find out about a French dictionary that's taken eight decades to produce.
That's all coming up on THE Globalist live from London.
First, a look at what else is happening in today's news.
The US has authorized Ukraine's military to use long range American missiles to strike deep inside Russia.
Meanwhile, parts of Ukraine are experiencing blackouts following a wide ranging Russian missile and drone attack this weekend targeting the country's power infrastructure.
And the media chief of the Lebanese militia group Hezbollah has been killed in an Israeli strike in Beirut.
Stay tuned to Monocle Radio throughout the day for more on these stories.
But first, two major summits within a week in South America are giving the world's most powerful leaders ample opportunity to contemplate their positions and focus on what they want from 2025.
