This is Bloomberg Daybreak, 265 00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:55,320 Speaker 1: and Rosalind Matheson is with us this morning, Bloomberg News 266 00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:59,040 Speaker 1: Executive editor for International Government. As we continue following fast 267 00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:02,240 Speaker 1: moving headlines on the war in Ukraine, including this latest 268 00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:05,760 Speaker 1: ras the Kremlin now saying that reports of major progress 269 00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:10,400 Speaker 1: on talks with Ukraine are wrong. Give us a little 270 00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:12,720 Speaker 1: bit more. What more is there is the Kremlin saying 271 00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:15,920 Speaker 1: this morning, Well, it's interesting that they've come out so 272 00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:19,680 Speaker 1: publicly to say that today. Of course, yesterday they did 273 00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:22,720 Speaker 1: say that they were optimistic, there were some signs of progress, 274 00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:25,000 Speaker 1: but even on the Russia side there were very cautious, 275 00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:29,440 Speaker 1: saying large obstacles remained. There were significant differences, for example, 276 00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:33,320 Speaker 1: about how you qualify a question of neutrality for Ukraine 277 00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:36,640 Speaker 1: and indicating they weren't yet near a deal. Of course, 278 00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:39,800 Speaker 1: the Ukraine side has been saying very much the same. However, 279 00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:43,480 Speaker 1: there were reports overnight that quite significant progress had been made, 280 00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:45,840 Speaker 1: in a fact, a deal might be imminent. So you're 281 00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:49,040 Speaker 1: seeing Russia come out publicly today to say, actually that's 282 00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:51,920 Speaker 1: not the case. There of course degrees of progress that 283 00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:54,680 Speaker 1: are occurring here, but we're nowhere near the point where 284 00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:57,920 Speaker 1: we can say that significant progress is being made. Of course, 285 00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:01,680 Speaker 1: these talks happening pretty much every day between officials by 286 00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:05,000 Speaker 1: a video conference, but they're really focusing on bit by bit. 287 00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:07,680 Speaker 1: The first step here is a more protracted cease fire, 288 00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:11,240 Speaker 1: potentially for forty eight hours or something, to allow people 289 00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:14,720 Speaker 1: to evacuate other parts of Ukraine, let alone getting to 290 00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:17,720 Speaker 1: some kind of multi point peace still that would allow 291 00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:22,120 Speaker 1: the conflict to to finish completely. So even Russia at 292 00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:25,680 Speaker 1: this side saying publicly things are nowhere near resolved here 293 00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:28,720 Speaker 1: and this conflict indeed will go on. It's possibly also 294 00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:31,480 Speaker 1: a reflection of the Russian president coming out yesterday again 295 00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:34,880 Speaker 1: publicly on television and saying I am committed to winning 296 00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:37,560 Speaker 1: this war. I'm going to see my plans through. And 297 00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:40,280 Speaker 1: certainly you don't want a narrative coming from Russia to 298 00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:43,040 Speaker 1: the to the counter of that, especially when the president 299 00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:46,240 Speaker 1: himself is saying it. Yeah, we've heard some really strong words, 300 00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:48,800 Speaker 1: I think from just about all the leaders involved in 301 00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:52,000 Speaker 1: this conflict, from Russian President Putin saying the country is 302 00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:54,840 Speaker 1: going to be cleared of scum and traders, to US 303 00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:58,640 Speaker 1: President Joe Biden branding Putin a war criminal. I mean, 304 00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:03,200 Speaker 1: where does this set things up for these ongoing negotiations, which, 305 00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:07,600 Speaker 1: as you mentioned, we are expecting another round of talks today. Well, 306 00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:09,560 Speaker 1: the key thing here really is at what point those 307 00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:11,920 Speaker 1: talks go below beyond sort of which is sort of 308 00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:15,760 Speaker 1: fairly low level of officials to small senior ministers, but 309 00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:18,800 Speaker 1: particularly at some point the leaders need to come in 310 00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:22,600 Speaker 1: That Ukrainian president has said repeatedly the only way to 311 00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:25,600 Speaker 1: resolve this conflict, to get agreement is leader to leader, 312 00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:28,840 Speaker 1: which means the Russian president needs to talk with him directly, 313 00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:30,879 Speaker 1: and so far, Vladimir Putin has made it clear that 314 00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:33,840 Speaker 1: he doesn't intend to do so. He's not engaged at all. 315 00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:36,800 Speaker 1: Until you get that kind of level of interaction where 316 00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:40,960 Speaker 1: leaders can effectively sign off on a deal directly and agree. 317 00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:43,000 Speaker 1: At that kind of level, it's very hard to see 318 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:47,159 Speaker 1: how we get progress towards it um And given the retoric, 319 00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:49,640 Speaker 1: of course that you're seeing that the Russian president says 320 00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:52,879 Speaker 1: about Ukraine and the Ukrainian president says in turn about 321 00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:55,600 Speaker 1: the Russian president, how you get them to even speak 322 00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:58,160 Speaker 1: on the phone in a way that could be productive 323 00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:01,080 Speaker 1: towards an agreement is also quite deficult to see, because 324 00:18:01,119 --> 00:18:04,400 Speaker 1: they're all saying very very strong things about each other. 325 00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:06,720 Speaker 1: But it will at some point possibly take that to 326 00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:09,320 Speaker 1: get us over the line to a deal. In the meantime, 327 00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:12,320 Speaker 1: while Ukraine's president has been waiting for those face to 328 00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:15,000 Speaker 1: face talks with a lot of imprudent he's been addressing 329 00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:19,280 Speaker 1: houses of parliament around the world. Yesterday, he spoke virtually 330 00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:22,639 Speaker 1: to the US Congress. This morning, he's been giving an 331 00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:26,760 Speaker 1: address to Germany's lower house of Parliament.

Better said, they 501 00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:47,119 Speaker 1: will soon get to work on a new contract for 502 00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:50,640 Speaker 1: Aeron Judge John Stash at one Bloomberg Sports. Okay, John, 503 00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:52,919 Speaker 1: thank you, six thirty seven on Wall Street. Let's take 504 00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:54,760 Speaker 1: a look now, it's stocks, some of the names moving 505 00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:57,240 Speaker 1: in the pre market with Bloomberg Radio and TV markets 506 00:27:57,280 --> 00:28:00,280 Speaker 1: correspondent Crety gooped creaty. It seems like invest ers have 507 00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:03,840 Speaker 1: moved from focusing on the FED back to headline moves 508 00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:06,080 Speaker 1: around the war in Ukraine. Yeah, it really comes back 509 00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:07,800 Speaker 1: down to that, because that's, at the end of it, 510 00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:10,640 Speaker 1: the kind of key driver of inflation right now, at least, 511 00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:13,199 Speaker 1: I say, additional inflation. If you look at futures, they 512 00:28:13,200 --> 00:28:15,760 Speaker 1: are down. But here's the good news, Nathan, they're not 513 00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:19,240 Speaker 1: down as much as you would expect after two days 514 00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:21,679 Speaker 1: of three percent or almost three percent gains in the 515 00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:24,480 Speaker 1: in the stock market, So that's pretty good news. That 516 00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:28,000 Speaker 1: being said, you are of course seeing some pretty downside moves. 517 00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:30,520 Speaker 1: Only about twenty five stocks in the green right now, 518 00:28:30,680 --> 00:28:32,600 Speaker 1: and most of them are going to be energy stocks. 519 00:28:32,600 --> 00:28:35,400 Speaker 1: Take a look at this Marathon Oil, your usual suspects here, 520 00:28:35,760 --> 00:28:38,560 Speaker 1: up three percent, m R O S your taker, Haliburton 521 00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:41,480 Speaker 1: as well, h A L up three percent, Devon Energy 522 00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:43,760 Speaker 1: d V and up two and a half percent. And 523 00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:47,040 Speaker 1: then there's occidental O x wise or taker up three 524 00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:50,360 Speaker 1: percent as well, A really great story simply about who 525 00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:54,040 Speaker 1: impact is buying accidental stock. It turns out it's Warren Buffett. 526 00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:56,800 Speaker 1: He is looking to build up his steak. He has 527 00:28:56,840 --> 00:28:59,600 Speaker 1: been building up his steak, and you have seen his 528 00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:03,440 Speaker 1: steak to fourteen point six percent, especially really getting built 529 00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:05,959 Speaker 1: up in the last couple of days. I think um 530 00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:08,280 Speaker 1: looking at this in a bet of a total seven 531 00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:11,920 Speaker 1: billion dollars and accental and just eleven trading days. So 532 00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:14,120 Speaker 1: that's why you use the accidental really gaining here. But 533 00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:16,560 Speaker 1: of course part of that is going to be this geopolitics. 534 00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:18,720 Speaker 1: O x Y once again is your ticker there? Yeah, 535 00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:21,600 Speaker 1: and once again we are watching a surge in crude 536 00:29:21,640 --> 00:29:24,960 Speaker 1: oil prices as well. It could be playing into that also. 537 00:29:25,080 --> 00:29:29,000 Speaker 1: Seeing some analyst moves of note this morning, some analysts moves, 538 00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:30,560 Speaker 1: you know, I think we're back to the point where 539 00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:33,600 Speaker 1: stocks are actually trading on with some of these analysts 540 00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:35,680 Speaker 1: are saying as opposed to the geopolitical tensions that we 541 00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:38,040 Speaker 1: were just talking about. We start with Ralph Lauren here. 542 00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:39,440 Speaker 1: This is a name that I don't bring up off 543 00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:42,200 Speaker 1: in r L. Is your taker up nine tenths of 544 00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:45,720 Speaker 1: a one percent, but seeing a lot of heavy volume 545 00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:48,240 Speaker 1: in acticing just as much volume as Occidental is in 546 00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:50,600 Speaker 1: the pre market this morning, So that is some interesting 547 00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:53,560 Speaker 1: news there. JP Morgan upgrading Ralph Lauren to an overweight, 548 00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:56,440 Speaker 1: announcing a one hundred and forty two dollar price target. 549 00:29:56,520 --> 00:29:58,680 Speaker 1: Is trading around one hundred and fifteen right now, so 550 00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:01,920 Speaker 1: definitely seeing some upside there. Another one that is actually 551 00:30:01,920 --> 00:30:04,520 Speaker 1: interesting to me is McDonald's m c d s your ticker. 552 00:30:04,560 --> 00:30:07,240 Speaker 1: They're up just two tenths of one percent, not a 553 00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:09,640 Speaker 1: huge move to the upside, but you did get some 554 00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:12,640 Speaker 1: news Morgan Stanley cutting their price target on McDonald's two 555 00:30:13,320 --> 00:30:16,720 Speaker 1: seven dollars from town four that of course citing a 556 00:30:16,840 --> 00:30:19,880 Speaker 1: Russian Ukrainian impact, but still saying they are overweight on 557 00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:22,680 Speaker 1: the stock. And remember McDonald's one of the fastest growing 558 00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:25,600 Speaker 1: markets is Russia. Actually, there was a story that Moscow, 559 00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:28,160 Speaker 1: the Moscow McDonald's location was one of the fastest and 560 00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:32,200 Speaker 1: busiest in the world. Of course before the war. McDonald's 561 00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:34,880 Speaker 1: shares now trading out about two d and thirty dollars. Yeah, 562 00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:37,200 Speaker 1: you saw some huge lines out of that first McDonald's 563 00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:39,360 Speaker 1: in Moscow after they opened the Iron curtain back in 564 00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:41,760 Speaker 1: the nineties. But it'll be really interesting to see as 565 00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:45,480 Speaker 1: well if we get any more geopolitical analysts moves with 566 00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:49,640 Speaker 1: so many companies pulling back their Russia business.

I'm this is Bloomberg. The following commentary 622 00:34:03,920 --> 00:34:08,760 Speaker 1: is from Bloomberg Opinion. Daylight I'm Jonathan Bernstein, a columnist 623 00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:11,200 Speaker 1: from Bloomberg Opinion. The Senate has passed a bill to 624 00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:14,520 Speaker 1: make daylight saving time a year round thing. It now 625 00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:17,279 Speaker 1: heads to the House. Momentum has been building within the 626 00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:20,680 Speaker 1: States for this change, and apparently senators were listening. Senate 627 00:34:20,719 --> 00:34:23,799 Speaker 1: passage will alert any groups that oppose the switch. They'll 628 00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:26,160 Speaker 1: push for the House to take it slow and risk averse. 629 00:34:26,200 --> 00:34:29,799 Speaker 1: Politicians could be wary about something voters may eventually not 630 00:34:29,960 --> 00:34:33,240 Speaker 1: like and definitely will notice. That's how Congress usually works. 631 00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:36,839 Speaker 1: It's not guaranteed to address everyone's strongest objections, but it's 632 00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:40,120 Speaker 1: a good system for bringing them to lawmakers attention. Senate 633 00:34:40,160 --> 00:34:42,279 Speaker 1: passage is also a good reminder that while the U 634 00:34:42,320 --> 00:34:46,840 Speaker 1: S system is famous for having lots of veto points, House, Senate, President, courts, 635 00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:50,480 Speaker 1: and more, it also has an enormous number of initiation points, 636 00:34:50,880 --> 00:34:54,920 Speaker 1: giving more political actors an opportunity for meaningful participation is 637 00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:57,680 Speaker 1: a strength of the Madisonian system, although it can also 638 00:34:57,719 --> 00:35:00,400 Speaker 1: give narrow interests a way to affect public policy without 639 00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:03,800 Speaker 1: broad based support. Strength or not, it is certainly unusual. 640 00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:06,680 Speaker 1: I'm Jonathan Bernstein.

Some of the top stories 676 00:36:55,640 --> 00:36:58,680 Speaker 1: in our nation's capital include President Biden ramping up military 677 00:36:58,680 --> 00:37:01,919 Speaker 1: aid to Ukraine, including armed drones, the House to vote 678 00:37:01,960 --> 00:37:05,640 Speaker 1: today on revoking Russia's trade status, and the Prime Minister 679 00:37:05,680 --> 00:37:09,160 Speaker 1: of Ireland testing positive for COVID nineteen while in the 680 00:37:09,239 --> 00:37:12,440 Speaker 1: nation's capital. For St. Patrick's Day, Let's bring back Bloomberg 681 00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:16,279 Speaker 1: Government Congressional reporter Jack Fitzpatrick for all that's happening in 682 00:37:16,280 --> 00:37:19,279 Speaker 1: the nation's capital. Jack, Good morning. So we heard from 683 00:37:19,719 --> 00:37:24,600 Speaker 1: Ukraine's president vladimir's Lensky addressed Congress yesterday and it sounds, 684 00:37:25,160 --> 00:37:27,440 Speaker 1: judging from what President Biden had to say afterward, that 685 00:37:27,480 --> 00:37:30,080 Speaker 1: it made quite the impression. Yeah, it did seem to 686 00:37:30,200 --> 00:37:34,239 Speaker 1: make an impression. There was a lot of bipartisan admiration 687 00:37:34,400 --> 00:37:37,040 Speaker 1: for President Zelinsky and a lot of praise for how 688 00:37:37,760 --> 00:37:41,640 Speaker 1: how the speech went. UH. There there was some polite 689 00:37:41,719 --> 00:37:45,960 Speaker 1: push back. You know, Zelenski made the case for blocking 690 00:37:46,200 --> 00:37:51,480 Speaker 1: Russian UH blocking airspace over Ukraine UH, and that is 691 00:37:51,520 --> 00:37:54,919 Speaker 1: not something that lawmakers really went for. There's still, UH 692 00:37:55,560 --> 00:38:00,600 Speaker 1: at least hesitation, really opposition from both parties towards doing that. 693 00:38:01,160 --> 00:38:05,440 Speaker 1: There's some skepticism as to how heavy the U s 694 00:38:05,440 --> 00:38:10,040 Speaker 1: should go with sending UH fighter jets to Ukraine. A 695 00:38:10,040 --> 00:38:14,200 Speaker 1: lot of the support that the President announced yesterday was 696 00:38:14,320 --> 00:38:19,440 Speaker 1: for anti aircraft weapons, UM javelins, anti tank tank weapons. 697 00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:22,920 Speaker 1: There were drones. They're sending a hundred drones, grenade launchers, 698 00:38:22,960 --> 00:38:27,400 Speaker 1: that kind of thing, a bit more handheld, lighter weight issues. 699 00:38:27,920 --> 00:38:31,640 Speaker 1: But yes, broadly there is a huge amount of bipartisan 700 00:38:31,719 --> 00:38:35,880 Speaker 1: support for helping Ukraine. Continuing to have a conversation about 701 00:38:36,040 --> 00:38:39,120 Speaker 1: potentially future bills that could add even more money in 702 00:38:39,280 --> 00:38:42,520 Speaker 1: defense and humanitarian aid. Uh and and so it's safe 703 00:38:42,520 --> 00:38:45,480 Speaker 1: to say the speech went well for President Zelinsky and 704 00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:49,360 Speaker 1: going forward from there, we're expecting a vote later today 705 00:38:49,480 --> 00:38:54,080 Speaker 1: in the House on revoking Russia's permanent normal trade status. 706 00:38:54,120 --> 00:38:56,799 Speaker 1: This was something that President Biden had been calling for 707 00:38:56,960 --> 00:39:01,320 Speaker 1: last week. Yes, well, he actually got pushed originally by Congress. 708 00:39:01,400 --> 00:39:04,799 Speaker 1: They brought this up. The White House briefly pumped the 709 00:39:04,840 --> 00:39:08,640 Speaker 1: brakes on that, uh, seemingly because the President has really 710 00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:11,560 Speaker 1: been the one to run this kind of thing by 711 00:39:11,880 --> 00:39:14,760 Speaker 1: European allies. So there was a bit of a delay 712 00:39:14,880 --> 00:39:18,919 Speaker 1: actually on behalf of the President. And then the President announced, yes, 713 00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:24,800 Speaker 1: he supports revoking Russia's preferred trade status. That needs action 714 00:39:24,920 --> 00:39:27,360 Speaker 1: by Congress though, so the vote is supposed to happen 715 00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:31,319 Speaker 1: today in the House. UH, they expect bipartisans support. They're 716 00:39:31,320 --> 00:39:35,239 Speaker 1: taking a procedural step that actually uh speeds things up. 717 00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:37,240 Speaker 1: If they can get two thirds vote in the House. 718 00:39:37,280 --> 00:39:40,800 Speaker 1: That's a sign that Democratic leaders expect very bipartisan support 719 00:39:40,880 --> 00:39:42,960 Speaker 1: for this in the House, and it would probably have 720 00:39:43,120 --> 00:39:45,680 Speaker 1: a good chance in the Senate. UH. And then of 721 00:39:45,719 --> 00:39:48,560 Speaker 1: course there there are conversations about what comes next, but 722 00:39:48,719 --> 00:39:52,400 Speaker 1: for now, yes, they are. They're moving to make official 723 00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:55,360 Speaker 1: what you have heard from the President on revoking Russia's 724 00:39:55,360 --> 00:39:58,960 Speaker 1: trade status, which would allow higher tariffs on any Russian 725 00:39:58,960 --> 00:40:02,280 Speaker 1: goods in the US. And finally, Jack, we're getting multiple 726 00:40:02,360 --> 00:40:06,239 Speaker 1: reports that the Irish Prime Minister has tested positive for 727 00:40:06,320 --> 00:40:11,239 Speaker 1: COVID during his annual St. Patrick's trip to Washington. Yes, 728 00:40:11,320 --> 00:40:14,319 Speaker 1: he he is in Washington and he was supposed to 729 00:40:14,360 --> 00:40:18,080 Speaker 1: meet with President Biden today. They have not ruled out 730 00:40:18,120 --> 00:40:21,960 Speaker 1: doing some sort of virtual meeting. But clearly after he 731 00:40:22,440 --> 00:40:26,520 Speaker 1: UH tested positive with a PCR test, after there were 732 00:40:26,520 --> 00:40:29,960 Speaker 1: all these events going on, he tested negative with one 733 00:40:29,960 --> 00:40:32,600 Speaker 1: of the more rapid tests, then got a positive result 734 00:40:32,880 --> 00:40:35,760 Speaker 1: back from a PCR test. So it does not seem 735 00:40:35,960 --> 00:40:40,120 Speaker 1: that the events going on, the meetings between him UH 736 00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:43,120 Speaker 1: and President Biden that were expected uh this morning and 737 00:40:43,160 --> 00:40:45,480 Speaker 1: into the afternoon are going to happen unless they can 738 00:40:45,520 --> 00:40:47,759 Speaker 1: come up with some sort of virtual meeting, which is 739 00:40:47,800 --> 00:40:50,359 Speaker 1: actually what happened a year ago because of the high 740 00:40:50,440 --> 00:40:53,160 Speaker 1: number of case counts UH. There So, so the President 741 00:40:53,200 --> 00:40:56,120 Speaker 1: Biden will will still not have an opportunity to meet 742 00:40:56,160 --> 00:40:59,719 Speaker 1: in person with the Irish Prime Minister Michael Martin. Just 743 00:41:00,680 --> 00:41:03,360 Speaker 1: yet another reminder that covid' is not quite done with 744 00:41:03,440 --> 00:41:05,799 Speaker 1: us yet.

In nineteen sixty nine, Golden 755 00:41:36,920 --> 00:41:40,440 Speaker 1: may Yor is elected as Israel's first female prime minister. 756 00:41:40,920 --> 00:41:44,400 Speaker 1: She was only the country's fourth prime minister. Mayor began 757 00:41:44,480 --> 00:41:48,080 Speaker 1: her career as a Zionist labor organizer. Later on, she 758 00:41:48,160 --> 00:41:52,120 Speaker 1: held several positions within the Israeli government, including Minister of 759 00:41:52,120 --> 00:41:55,800 Speaker 1: Foreign Affairs and Minister of Labor, and upon the sudden 760 00:41:55,840 --> 00:41:59,120 Speaker 1: death of Prime Minister Levi Eshkal in nineteen sixty nine, 761 00:41:59,400 --> 00:42:03,280 Speaker 1: Mayor was chosen as his successor. During her career, Mayor 762 00:42:03,400 --> 00:42:06,960 Speaker 1: gained a reputation as a savvy diplomat. She saw the 763 00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:09,879 Speaker 1: country through the Yam Kippur War in nineteen seventy three, 764 00:42:10,200 --> 00:42:14,000 Speaker 1: after Syria and Egypt launched a surprise attack on Israel, 765 00:42:14,360 --> 00:42:17,440 Speaker 1: and partially due to her ailing health end age, Mayor 766 00:42:17,600 --> 00:42:22,320 Speaker 1: resigned in October nineteen seventy four.
