00:00Hello everyone, welcome to Mediain TV for your last press conference of the week.
00:15After Spain, Algeria has just banned any trade with France, a decision prepared since
00:22Paris expressed its support for the Moroccan Sahara, explains the 360.
00:26This measure was activated on the day of the award of the Goncourt Prize in 2024 to Kamel
00:32Daoud for his work Hori, evoking the black decade in the country and banning sales in
00:37Algeria, a work under the law prohibiting any work evoking the civil war between 1992
00:44and 2002, punished from 3 to 5 years in prison and a fine of 250,000 to 500,000 Algerian dinars.
00:53France was one of its major hydrocarbons customers and, in short, the only Algerian products
00:58exportable, the information portal indicates.
01:01If the Algerian regime had targeted Spain in 2022 only with sanctions related to import,
01:07this time even Algerian exports intended for France would be targeted.
01:12Economic blackmail as a means of pressure on Spain to bring it to reconsider its support
01:18to the Moroccan Sahara had not been established.
01:22Yes, officially precise, the 360.
01:27Should we fear technopolitics?
01:29This is the question posed by Challenge to evoke the support of big business leaders
01:33to Donald Trump, winner of the US presidential elections, a type of operation announced
01:38by the sociologist Tocqueville already in the 1800s where the mechanism of the universal
01:42loses its meaning.
01:43More than 15 billion dollars have been spent for this US presidential campaign,
01:47especially by billionaires.
01:49It is Kamala Harris who leads the funding with the support of at least 81 billionaires
01:54against only 50 for Donald Trump.
01:56Tech has also been activated, Microsoft, Apple, Adobe, Amazon, Facebook, among others.
02:01The giants of Silicon Valley have signed staggering cheques.
02:05Advertising expenses, all mixed media, have already exceeded 10 billion dollars
02:09on October 31, an increase of 1 billion compared to the same period in 2020
02:13according to the specialist Ad Impact.
02:16The technological influence is well present and can influence a percentage of the votes
02:20but it remains human against the candidate.
02:22With his convictions and his thoughts, Challenge concludes with the words of Hicham Chiguer,
02:27president of the Association of Users of Information Systems in Morocco.
02:34In his statement on the result of the US election, the outgoing president, Joe Biden,
02:38reiterated his call for a peaceful transition of power but did not address the reasons
02:42for the defeat of the Democrats.
02:44As announced by his team yesterday, he recalled that he called Donald Trump
02:48to congratulate him on his victory as well as Vice President Kamala Harris
02:52whom he saluted the inspiring campaign.
02:54He then stated that he recognized the victory of the new president.
02:58Biden's statement is notable not only for what he says
03:01but also for what he does not say.
03:03The lessons he draws from the election result,
03:06says David Issanger, correspondent for the New York Times in Washington
03:10Because yes, the American president completely avoided the question
03:13of the responsibility of the Democratic defeat,
03:15preferring to deliver a message of hope,
03:18only conceding to have lost this battle.
03:20Joe Biden rather wanted to deliver a message of appeasement,
03:23repeating that he wanted a peaceful transfer of power.
03:26He also asked his fellow citizens to lower the temperature
03:29after an extremely stifling campaign and marked by strong tensions.
03:33In Germany now, the uncertainty settles
03:36after the fall of the coalition of Chancellor Olaf Scholz
03:39which brings the country to live a new scrutiny.
03:42Soon, the German governmental coalition will collapse.
03:45Titled the Dutch Veil, the German Chancellor Olaf Scholz
03:48announced that a vote of confidence would be organized in January
03:51which could open the way to the anticipated elections at the beginning of 2025.
03:55This decision comes after the dismissal of the Minister of Finance Christian Linder
03:59a former chief of staff of the Liberals
04:02and this due to divergences on the economic level
04:05which was then replaced by Jörg Kukies,
04:08a true political scapegoat of the German Chancellor.
04:11The coalition was not a judicious political choice from the start,
04:14says the German public radio and television.
04:17If elections were to be held at the end of this week,
04:20the conservative opposition would come to power
04:23with more than 30% of the votes according to opinion polls
04:27with the leader Friedrich Merckx as a favorite
04:30to become Chancellor according to the latest polls.
04:36The Japanese industrialist Nissan announced the abolition of 9,000 jobs
04:39to deal with the degradation of sales in the world.
04:42This is the figure of the day, revealed by the International Post
04:45after Michelin, which closes two factories in France
04:48and Volkswagen, which announced at the end of October
04:51tens of thousands of dismissals and three factory closures in Germany.
04:54The Japanese car manufacturer plans to introduce a new restructuring.
04:57Nissan is severely revising its profit forecast
05:00at a drop of more than 900 million euros for the fiscal year.
05:03In March 2025, analysts' forecasts will be the same as elsewhere in the world.
05:06New car sales will slow down in Japan
05:09where car manufacturers are faced
05:12with a strong competition from Tesla
05:15and Chinese brands of electric vehicles such as BYD.
05:18The manufacturer plans to sell 3.65 million vehicles this year
05:21but with global sales falling by nearly 4%
05:24to 1.5 million units between April and September.
05:27Reaching this goal could be difficult.
05:35This is the end of this press conference.
05:38Thank you all for watching.
