Speaker 1: Brian Turtis in Hong Kong. Israel's cabinet has approved to

00:00:07,840 --> 00:00:11,680

Speaker 1: professor and Bloomberg Politics contributor has more.

7
00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:26,960
Speaker 2: It is a big, big move forward for many people

8
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:30,320
Speaker 2: because it's really the first diplomatic breakthrough we've seen since

9
00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:33,320
Speaker 2: the war began after the October seventh attack. But it

10
00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:37,559
Speaker 2: comes with so much trepidation and so many questions. This

11
00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:41,000
Speaker 2: is not a ceasefire, it's a pause. It comes also

12
00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:44,800
Speaker 2: as a result of enormous pressure both inside Israel and

13
00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:49,599
Speaker 2: internationally that the Israeli government has been feeling, particularly from

14
00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:52,960
Speaker 2: the relatives of these two hundred and thirty six hostages.

15
00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:57,800

Speaker 4: Iranian backed militia personnel involved in this attack. This self

25
00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:28,720

30
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:46,600

33
00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:56,480
Speaker 5: Bittle began early this month when a vale Resolutioni, who

34
00:01:56,600 --> 00:02:01,160
Speaker 5: is the top army chief in Ukraine, published an article

35
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:03,640
Speaker 5: in The Economist where he described the events on the

36
00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:08,000
Speaker 5: battlefield as a stalemate. Zelensky challenged this view, and it

37
00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:11,360
Speaker 5: all give a ground to rumors of some kind of

38
00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:15,919
Speaker 5: rift between Kiev political leadership and the military command.

39
00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:19,119
Speaker 1: Zelensky has ruled out elections this year. With the nation

40
00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:23,480
Speaker 1: under martial law. Open AI says it's in intense discussions

41
00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:27,200
Speaker 1: to unify the company. This comes after most employees threatened

42
00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:30,880
Speaker 1: to quit if the former CEO, Sam Altman did not

43
00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:35,079
Speaker 1: return to the company. We hear discussions are happening among Altman,

44
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:39,520
Speaker 1: new CEO Emmatesheer, and at least one board member, Adam DiAngelo.

45
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:41,120
Speaker 1: Here's Bloomberg zed Ludlow.

46
00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:44,560
Speaker 6: The fact that Sam is even speaking to Adam Dangelo

47
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:48,600
Speaker 6: is news. It is complete changed from the weekend. We

48
00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:50,880
Speaker 6: sat there all day Sunday saying okay, well, Sam's definitely

49
00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:53,119
Speaker 6: coming back and the board's going to go. That wasn't

50
00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:55,200
Speaker 6: the case at all. The board was digging in and

51
00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:56,880
Speaker 6: there was very little communication at all.

52
00:02:57,320 --> 00:03:01,160
Speaker 1: We hear that no eminent leadership decision is expected as

53
00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:05,680
Speaker 1: negotiations continue. And separately, Microsoft is discussing a list of

54
00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:09,320
Speaker 1: governance changes that it plans to request from the board

55
00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:12,520
Speaker 1: at open AI. The aim is to improve the board

56
00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:15,920
Speaker 1: itself and to prevent Microsoft from being caught flat footed

57
00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:19,200
Speaker 1: by big changes. Among the ideas a larger board and

58
00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:23,639
Speaker 1: one with more experience finance, and its CEO Chong Pung

59
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:27,960
Speaker 1: Jao pleaded guilty to criminal charges. The charges include anti

60
00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:32,160

64
00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:46,920
Speaker 7: transmitting business, and willfully violating the International Emergency Economic Powers Act.

65
00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:51,280
Speaker 7: These laws ensure that our financial institutions are not available

66
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:57,000
Speaker 7: to designated terrorist organizations, drug traffickers, and sanctioned nation states

67
00:03:57,320 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 7: that threaten public safety and our national secuit.

68
00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:03,680
Speaker 1: Merrick Garland Finance will pay four point three billion dollars

69
00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:07,120
