Here 3 00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:14,920 Speaker 2: are the stories we're following today. 4 00:00:15,680 --> 00:00:18,279 Speaker 3: Karen, we begin this morning with new developments in the 5 00:00:18,280 --> 00:00:22,200 Speaker 3: Middle East. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Natanyahu has secured security 6 00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:26,480 Speaker 3: Cabinet approval for a military takeover of Gaza City, and 7 00:00:26,600 --> 00:00:29,240 Speaker 3: then Yahoo describes it as part of a final push 8 00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:32,599 Speaker 3: to topple Hamas after twenty two months of fighting and 9 00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:36,640 Speaker 3: to recover the militant group's final remaining fifty hostages. We 10 00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:39,519 Speaker 3: get more from Bloomberg Israel Bureau chief Ethan Bronner in 11 00:00:39,560 --> 00:00:40,040 Speaker 3: Tel Aviv. 12 00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:43,360 Speaker 4: The Prime Minister has said repeatedly for many months that 13 00:00:43,560 --> 00:00:46,680 Speaker 4: Israel must take over every square inch of Gaza in 14 00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:51,720 Speaker 4: order to clear it of Hamas' infrastructure and fighters and 15 00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:56,040 Speaker 4: governing authority so that Hamas and Gaza will never be 16 00:00:56,160 --> 00:00:59,160 Speaker 4: a threat again to Israel. So it's a very aggressive 17 00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:01,400 Speaker 4: act and we'll have to see where it goes. That 18 00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:03,880 Speaker 4: there are almost a million people living in Gaza City, 19 00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:08,280 Speaker 4: Israelis are going to forcibly evacuate them, to displace them 20 00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:10,720 Speaker 4: to go south, and at the same time with the 21 00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:13,480 Speaker 4: US they're talking about stepping up in a big way 22 00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:15,800 Speaker 4: the amount of food and aid that goes in in 23 00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:18,000 Speaker 4: order to take care of those people, at least in 24 00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:19,080 Speaker 4: some minimal fashion. 25 00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:22,679 Speaker 3: Bloomberg Zethan Bronner says, most polls show as Raeli's prefer 26 00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:25,560 Speaker 3: to see the war called off with hamas intact, if 27 00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:27,640 Speaker 3: that's the cost of recovering the hostages. 28 00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:31,440 Speaker 2: Now, Nathan the latest on the war in Ukraine. President 29 00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:34,360 Speaker 2: Trump had given Russia until today to reach a true 30 00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:37,800 Speaker 2: surface economic penalties. Now the President says he's willing to 31 00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:41,440 Speaker 2: meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin, with or without Ukrainian 32 00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:43,119 Speaker 2: President Vladimir Zelenski. 33 00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:44,600 Speaker 5: It's going to be up to him. 34 00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:46,920 Speaker 6: We're going to see what he has to say. 35 00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:47,960 Speaker 7: It's going to be up to him. 36 00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:51,800 Speaker 2: Very disappointing President Trump's Oval Office comments. So if a roade, 37 00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:55,040 Speaker 2: a White House official who'd said earlier that Putin would 38 00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:57,680 Speaker 2: need to agree to meet with Zelenski first. We get 39 00:01:57,680 --> 00:01:59,560 Speaker 2: more from Bloomberg's Tony Halpin. 40 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:02,560 Speaker 5: So in many ways, this is Russia's ideal scenario. They've 41 00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:05,880 Speaker 5: long argued that the war in Ukraine isn't really against Ukraine, 42 00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:08,679 Speaker 5: that it's against the US and NATO, and that it's 43 00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:11,760 Speaker 5: being fought in Ukraine. And clearly, if they can demonstrate, 44 00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:15,240 Speaker 5: both to their people at home and in arguments abroad, 45 00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:17,919 Speaker 5: that they're sitting down with Trump to decide the war 46 00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:19,919 Speaker 5: in Ukraine, that only strengthens their argument. 47 00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:21,320 Speaker 8: That strengthens their hand. 48 00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:24,000 Speaker 5: In claiming that they're really dealing with the West rather 49 00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:26,799 Speaker 5: than having to confront the fact that they invaded Ukraine. 50 00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:29,800 Speaker 2: And as Bloomberg's Tony help in the Kremlin says, the 51 00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:32,560 Speaker 2: US and Russia have agreed on a venue and hope 52 00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:33,880 Speaker 2: to hold the talks next week. 53 00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:37,280 Speaker 3: Well, another major story we're following Karen involves the future 54 00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:40,880 Speaker 3: of the Federal Reserve. President Trump has nominated Council of 55 00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:44,720 Speaker 3: Economic Advisors chairman Stephen Myron to serve as a FED governor. 56 00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:48,680 Speaker 3: Bloomberg Zamy Morris reports from Washington. President Trump says Myron, 57 00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:50,840 Speaker 3: who will need to be confirmed by the Senate, would 58 00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:53,920 Speaker 3: only serve the remaining term of FED Governor Adriana Kugler, 59 00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:57,200 Speaker 3: which expires in January. Myron has been critical of the 60 00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:00,280 Speaker 3: Fed's track record and says tariffs are not like likely 61 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 3: to cause inflation pressure. 62 00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:04,200 Speaker 7: We've now got several months of data, and again there's 63 00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:09,240 Speaker 7: just zero macroeconomically significant evidence of price pressures from tariffs. 64 00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:12,840 Speaker 9: Stephen Myron, in a conversation just hours before the President's 65 00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:16,040 Speaker 9: announcement on Thursday with Balance of Power host Joe Matthew, 66 00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:18,840 Speaker 9: that view puts him somewhat at odds with Powell. The 67 00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:21,160 Speaker 9: FED chair has said that while the base case is 68 00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:24,560 Speaker 9: that tariff's effects on inflation could be short lived, FED 69 00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:28,760 Speaker 9: policymakers must guard against the alternative. In Washington, Amy Morris 70 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:29,880 Speaker 9: Bloomberg Radio. 71 00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:32,280 Speaker 2: Amy, thank you well.

That's just part of when I 180 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:28,520 Speaker 14: get it. 181 00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:29,000 Speaker 13: I do. 182 00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:33,600 Speaker 14: But that's the emotional maturity that we talk about. How man, 183 00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:36,280 Speaker 14: you can't let anything outside bother you. Man, just only 184 00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:39,080 Speaker 14: focus on the gas that's in house and only focus 185 00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:42,000 Speaker 14: on getting better every day because you can always hear 186 00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:44,959 Speaker 14: it and he understands the noises going. It's just part 187 00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:46,160 Speaker 14: of the business, so part of being. 188 00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:46,920 Speaker 13: A quarterback fields. 189 00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:47,200 Speaker 8: He said. 190 00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:49,520 Speaker 13: They've had some tough moments in training camp.

Israel's Security Cabinet has approved a plan 206 00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:42,520 Speaker 3: for a military takeover of Gaza City, Prime Minister Benjamin Natanya, 207 00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:44,680 Speaker 3: who describes it as a final push to the fIF 208 00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:48,000 Speaker 3: Ramas after nearly three years of fighting. The ultimate goal, 209 00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:50,720 Speaker 3: he says, is full control of the Gaza strip. 210 00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:55,880 Speaker 8: We intend to in order to assure our security, remove 211 00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:59,960 Speaker 8: Ramas there, enable the population to be free of Gaza 212 00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:03,240 Speaker 8: and to pass it to civilian governance. That is not 213 00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:06,960 Speaker 8: Camas and not anyone advocating the destruction. 214 00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:09,600 Speaker 3: To visual That was Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Natanya, who 215 00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:12,280 Speaker 3: speaking to Fox News ahead of the Security Cabinet vote 216 00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:15,000 Speaker 3: and joining us this morning is Bloomberg News Israel Bureau 217 00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 3: Chief Ethan Bronner. Ethan, good morning. Could this represent a 218 00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:21,880 Speaker 3: final phase in the war. What could the Israeli military 219 00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:24,920 Speaker 3: encounter if it does indeed push into Gaza City on 220 00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:25,319 Speaker 3: the ground? 221 00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:28,000 Speaker 8: Good morning, Good morning, Nathan. 222 00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:32,280 Speaker 4: Look, I mean it's going to encounter obviously, the kind 223 00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:35,760 Speaker 4: of guerrilla warfare that you know we've seen in Vietnam 224 00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:40,840 Speaker 4: and in Afghanistan and in Iraq. So yes, it's going 225 00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:43,680 Speaker 4: to certainly be bloody. What's going to happen now, in 226 00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:47,520 Speaker 4: theory is over the course of the coming weeks, Israel 227 00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 4: is going to forcibly displace the many hundreds of thousands 228 00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:53,560 Speaker 4: of people who live in and around Gaza City to 229 00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:56,640 Speaker 4: the south. In theory, they're going to also step up 230 00:11:57,040 --> 00:12:00,199 Speaker 4: the provision of humanitarian aid to where they're to where 231 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:04,960 Speaker 4: those folks are headed. And then several, perhaps six divisions 232 00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:07,760 Speaker 4: of Israeli soldiers are going to start moving into Gaza 233 00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:17,239 Speaker 4: City and to try to dismantle whatever remaining infrastructure and Hamas' 234 00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:20,480 Speaker 4: command structure exists. That is the plan. 235 00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:24,640 Speaker 3: Are the Israeli people behind this? There have been some 236 00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:28,160 Speaker 3: reticence in the past about going into Gaza City because 237 00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:31,440 Speaker 3: there was a thought that Hamas could be holding many 238 00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:33,080 Speaker 3: of the remaining hostages there. 239 00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:36,520 Speaker 4: Yes, you're right, I would say that public opinion at 240 00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:43,360 Speaker 4: the moment is essentially negative to skeptical. It's not totally 241 00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:46,520 Speaker 4: opposed because it does like the idea of trying to 242 00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:49,719 Speaker 4: eliminate Hamas, but it's very worried about the remaining hostages, 243 00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:54,240 Speaker 4: very worried about the soldiers going in. So I would 244 00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:56,760 Speaker 4: say that it is an uphill battle in public opinion 245 00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:59,920 Speaker 4: at the moment for this Prime Minister, in this government. 246 00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:05,040 Speaker 4: It has kind of felt that generally the world, the 247 00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:07,760 Speaker 4: US and even public opinion has been against a lot 248 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:13,480 Speaker 4: of its bolder moves in Iran, in Lebanon, and they 249 00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:16,040 Speaker 4: feel that they have come out ahead in those endeavors 250 00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:17,760 Speaker 4: and that they will do so here as well. 251 00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:20,240 Speaker 3: And of course this is coming at a time that 252 00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:23,800 Speaker 3: you've written about extensively that Israel is pressing on with 253 00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:29,080 Speaker 3: this war despite the international outcry over the humanitarian crisis 254 00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:31,920 Speaker 3: in Gaza. A lot of Israelis have been starting to 255 00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:34,720 Speaker 3: speak out about that more as well. How could a 256 00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:39,280 Speaker 3: push into Gaza City exacerbate potentially what's happening in the 257 00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:40,360 Speaker 3: rest of Gaza right. 258 00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:44,440 Speaker 4: Now, Well, exactly, I mean, you're going to have hundreds 259 00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:47,679 Speaker 4: of thousands of people moving into a very small area 260 00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:51,400 Speaker 4: where there has not been enough medicine and food and 261 00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:54,400 Speaker 4: what people need to live decent life. And now you're 262 00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:57,360 Speaker 4: going to have more people. They say, with the help 263 00:13:57,400 --> 00:14:00,360 Speaker 4: of the United States, they're going to at least triple, 264 00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:04,199 Speaker 4: perhaps quadruple the amount of aid, the number of feeding stations, 265 00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:08,000 Speaker 4: and so on. But it has gone not well over 266 00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:11,320 Speaker 4: these last couple of months, and it seems likely to 267 00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:14,599 Speaker 4: continue to be a huge struggle. I mean, part of 268 00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:18,120 Speaker 4: it is just this incredibly difficult situation for everybody on 269 00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:20,480 Speaker 4: the ground has been there for nearly two years of this, 270 00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:24,200 Speaker 4: and the feeding stations aren't enough. And then there's of 271 00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:27,520 Speaker 4: course the internal attempt by Hamas and those who oppose 272 00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:32,160 Speaker 4: Israel and the United States to disrupt this whole procedure. 273 00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:34,520 Speaker 4: So I think we can expect a lot of pain 274 00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:36,760 Speaker 4: coming up for sure. 275 00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:41,560 Speaker 3: In our last minute Ethan, as we potentially prepare for 276 00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:45,880 Speaker 3: this invasion into Gaza's city. What about the thinking around 277 00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:49,600 Speaker 3: what comes after Hamas. We heard Nantayaho's saying there could 278 00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:54,680 Speaker 3: be some kind of civilian administration, But is that feasible. 279 00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:59,080 Speaker 4: Look, it's not my job to decide whether it's feasible 280 00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:03,120 Speaker 4: or not, but it is unquestionably difficult. That has been 281 00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:08,160 Speaker 4: this government's view that once Hamas has actually removed from Gaza, 282 00:15:08,280 --> 00:15:10,560 Speaker 4: then people there will no longer be afraid, it will 283 00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:14,040 Speaker 4: be willing to step forward as technocrats and as business 284 00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:17,920 Speaker 4: people to create a more decent situation. A lot of 285 00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:20,800 Speaker 4: people who think they know Gaza say that that is 286 00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:24,680 Speaker 4: very unlikely. And the other question is whether if this 287 00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:27,400 Speaker 4: government is not willing to let the palestine An authority 288 00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:30,520 Speaker 4: in and it says it's not so, who's left. So look, 289 00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:33,440 Speaker 4: I agree with you, it's very unclear whether it will work. 290 00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:36,360 Speaker 4: They think they have the people to make it work. 291 00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:37,800 Speaker 4: We will be watching. 292 00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:43,000 Speaker 2: This is Bloomberg Daybreak, your morning podcast and the stories 293 00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:46,120 Speaker 2: making news from Wall Street to Washington and beyond. 294 00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:48,760 Speaker 3: Look for us on your podcast feed by six am 295 00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:52,200 Speaker 3: Eastern each morning, on Apple, Spotify, or anywhere else you listen. 296 00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:55,280 Speaker 2: You can also listen live each morning starting at five 297 00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:57,920 Speaker 2: am Wall Street time on Bloomberg eleven three to zero 298 00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:00,920 Speaker 2: in New York, Bloomberg in ninety nine one in Washington, 299 00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:04,920 Speaker 2: Bloomberg ninety two nine in Boston, and nationwide on serious 300 00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:06,680 Speaker 2: XM Channel one twenty one. 301 00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:07,400 Speaker 9: Plus. 302 00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:10,040 Speaker 3: Listen coast to coast on the Bloomberg Business app now 303 00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:12,680 Speaker 3: with Apple CarPlay and Android auto interfaces. 304 00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:15,920 Speaker 2: And don't forget to subscribe to Bloomberg News Now.
