Its refreshing to hear a grown speak on such important issues. It only emphasises the disapointment one feels hearing those at the helm in our respective nations.
I beg to differ... there is a good reason why children are hungry and dying and, that is, the Oligarchs in America wanted it to happen - cynical, perhaps?!? From the 80's onwards the US could have chosen the 'right path' (wuwei), the path of non interference but instead chose the path of destruction and coercion. Brutally frank but true!
Thanks Professor Sachs' heart to heart speech that energized everyone in the develping countries to see our future is hopeful and promising. Also thanks China's belt and road development that has been helping the global south to be more connected and integrated.
"China's belt and road development " Its a ticket to bankruptcy and a giant debt trap for many 3rd World nations. Plus the Chinese often have security on the loans that they take over that is critical infrastructure for that nation and they are less forgiving than a Western lender if things head south with the country or the loan.
"Be nice to your neighbors," Prof J. Sachs. That is so basic geopolitics but unfortunately many countries are blinded by prejudice and animosity that are engaging in destructive relations with their neighbors.
Great teacher, great speaker for the world affair. unbiased, factual point of analyis person. always learn so much from him. free Julian assange... the world need to stand together to free him.
I really wish the US was capable of diplomacy & peace so we could create a world that Prof Sachs discusses - unfortunately we prefer to fail upwards w our so called leaders & we don’t heed advice from our greatest thinkers I can’t believe Africa imports 85% of its food. I hope China can help many w this neocolonialist system & that America can sit down for a decade & focus on their own dystopian country failing in every sense of the matter
I have said many times over the years that America should blockade itself from the rest of the world for a year or revisit why we should participate in working in world affairs
In my opinion These failing policies are not implemented by chance but on purpose - to keep Africa poor, so Western countries could have African riches for next to nothing + cheap labor. All Western Europe lives of the back of the poor countries. USA does it too, but they are different. Europe itself has next to nothing; very little natural recourses, very little in the way of industries, very little hard science (physicks, chemistry etc.)...What do they have to sustain their high level of living standards? I can't see anything what would be worth speaking about. Sure... little bit here or there, but nothing to justify their level of prosperity. So Africa and some other countries have to be poor, so Europe could exchange their "glass beads" for real gold...same as 100s of years ago.
The US is the main issue as Europe is considerably weakened and bereft of an empire now. The US maintains over 800 military bases around the world and the real purpose of these bases is to maintain the U.S. global order: ie, the US empire. That global order ensures that the old colonial principle of extraction from and impoverishment of the third world continues unimpeded. And so it is only with the destruction of the US empire that Africa would be able to progress meaningfully. The empire is in deep trouble as I write and this is the time for Africa to ramp up the house cleaning and uproot vestiges of the US empire from the continent completely. It is not a matter of maintaining ties, such can be maintained with Europe as they are of minimal risk once the U.S. has been defanged, it is a matter of beheading the beast; and the beast is the US empire. There should be no hesitation about this, the diseased organism must be eradicated in order that Africa may live. Sachs hoping that Gates would give funds for educating Africa would be laughable if it weren’t tragic. He still fails to understand the geopolitical imperatives of the country he comes from. China rose on the system of stringent anti U.S. imperialism and that it is why it has been so successful. India which tried to grow as an appendage to the western imperialist system is riddled with poverty and underperforming its peer, China, by substantial factors while enriching a few compradors who remain attached to the U.S. empire.
There is no such thing as Africa, or Europe or America for that matter. These are ideas, nothing more. If America has taught the world anything, it has shown where Superpower leads. Will the world be better off with Africa or Asia on top? I don't think so. It will be the same as we have now, except non-white people will be leading things and wielding the Superpower. America, for all its faults, was a universal idea. It embraced the whole world, and the whole world looked to America (at one time, not today) as the world's hope. Neither Africa or Asia are universal ideas. Maybe the age of universal ideas has ended, but in that case, what do we have to look forward to? We're seeing it now in Gaza, Ukraine, Addis Ababa. It's a world of politics and armed conflict.
Prof Sachs is an economist without the ideology Economy is about trading and growing the economies, is not about taking advantage of countries in vulnerable position, that is not economics is colonization
Dr Sachs and I are exactly the same age ; we’ve always been defending the same world views, and I know lots of so-called ‘boomers’ are actually sharing such common sense values. The point is, alas, Wisdom is not meant to be majoritary in any hedonistic-consumerist society…
Give a Man a Fish, and You Feed Him for a Day. Teach a Man To Fish, and You Feed Him for a Lifetime... This is what China offer with China's non-interference directive with others govern.
The western MSM are censored - try to get any positive news about China or Russia. UA-cam, Twitter (X), FaceBook - all are censored. Are Americans happy? Yes, the Chinese are very happy - more than 90% support their government (BTW, the polls are done by Harvard.)
@@loveofinquiry8067 So are those in the US. The difference is that in China you KNOW you are being censored, while in the US you are being censored but TOLD that you are not.

Thank you, Dr. J. Sachs. Please take good care of your neighbors. In times of trouble, they will be the first to come knocking at your door offering help. Look to the right, to the left, to the north, and to the south. Do not harbor a Zionist or Fascist mentality.
I am a tremendous admirer of Professor Sachs. He is excellence personified in constructive 🇨🇳 + 🇺🇸 dialogue. Not that I agree with everything he says. From what I can make out from the first few minutes (please someone correct me if I am mistaken), this talk was NOT given on 2023-10-07 during the shocking, traumatizing events in Israel, despite the upload date. It is my sense that 🇨🇳 & 🇷🇺 urgently need to condemn 🇮🇷, as the balance of the world's moral geopolitical power has now shifted markedly against the extremist regime in 🇮🇷 & its enablers. 🇷🇺 in particular needs to decouple from 🇮🇷 by condemning Hamas, condemning Iranian incitement of Hamas, ending Russian use of Iranian military technology to defend annexation claims in 🇺🇦, & pressuring 🇮🇷 to immediately renounce all of its highly enriched uranium under rigorous IAEA monitoring. I am generally opposed to Russophobic & Sinophobic discourse in 🇺🇸 politics, but I find the apparent inability of Russia & China to straightforwardly condemn Hamas as a terrorist organization is absolutely bone-chilling. Do you side with Hamas, Iran, Russia & China, Professor Sachs, at this critical juncture in the dialogue of civilizations? Thank you.🙏
Outstanding Advice for the world as it evolves, delivered with excellent clarity. Globally we are at crossroads, as clearly evidenced previous systems developed by 'divide and rule' powers have over decades been proven disastrous for humanity. Totally disrespective of others, it was excessively exploitative and suppressive to all, developing and small nations, it's inhumane to perhaps 50% of global populations, and now still totally disregards their own citizens and allies. There sadly remain some corrupt and greedy in administration. Yes respect and take good care of your neighbors and build back better Globally. BBBG. Divide and rule is DONE. We have all had too much of it and for too long. Thank you Professor Sachs.
Insanity is the name of the game. What they don’t understand is if we were able to clean up the mess that we would most certainly be creating the ice age that is held back by the greenhouse effect for now. We are still in a period of the next ice age, except that right now we are in the intermodal cycle and the greenhouse effect is helping keep us from freezing. The temperature of the earth will drop and the greenhouse effect will not stop it.
Environmental problems (resource depletion, pollution, energy needs) can be solved technically when linked to consumption issues. Our socio-economic system is built on cooperative abuse and exploitation, primarily managed through debt, backed by propaganda and violent intervention, as deemed appropriate to maintain the status quo. Attempts at a paradigm shift towards focus on environment rather than quality of life have great commercial benefits, notably via the enforced replacement of old with new. The aim is to achieve environmentally sustainable cooperative abuse and exploitation of people, backed by the aforementioned, supported by digital control and censorship. It is a regime under which I shall not live because I will have opted out. Life for me is a chance to have enjoyable experiences and to help other people have enjoyable experiences. If it ceases to be that for me, I’m off to self-compost. In the meantime, best wishes from me.
I have said many times that the landfills are going to be our treasure trove of the future. When man has scarcities of resources to make things-they will have the resources necessary in the future by digging up landfills
China is the first country that managed to develop from a third world level in the 1960ies to a prosperous industrialized country in just 40 years. 3 success factors were key: Sovereignty, a homogeneous high alignment long term stable governance model, and the ability, based on the first two, to formulate and implement multi-decadal development projects in all socio-economic dimensions. So the recipe is very simple: be sovereign in culture, politically and economically. Size is not a success factor. Why? Because when you are small you can develop your niche Ricardo potential fully and mostly all the big countries and the empire don’t focus on you as long as you can make them belief, you are actually doing what they want you to do, without actually doing it. You fly under the radar, and your Sovereignty is your niche which the Hegemon has no time to look at. When you are a larger country of course you are noticed and if you sit on interesting Ricardo potential the Hegemon wants to control you as a colony. Without Sovereignty, a country has no sovereign governance and culture and economy and cannot develop strategically as it needs to do what the Hegemon and the Empire demand and need, not what its population needs. So who is sovereign? China, Russia, Iran, North Korea, Venezuela, Burma. Who is mostly sovereign? India, Saudi Arabia ( since joining BRICS and staying neutral in the NATO Russia war), Brazil ( under Lula and Rousseff), Algeria, Vietnam, Indonesia, South Africa, and couple of others. Who is a colony: The EU, NATO countries and many countries in Latin America and Africa and Oceania and quite a few in Asia. An imperial business model is a pyramidal model. The Hegemon draws a 5% free rent from its colonies. But within an empire there are middlemen and they all draw their cut. The cote of the EU draws about 4% and that makes some 10% rent extraction @cross all hierarchies. When a company has to pay 10% of its profits, it will never have any profits left to invest into its future. And more so, it cannot invest in high ROI development, as it has to invest what increases imperial profits. It is like a specialized worker in the imperial business and cannot simply switch jobs, or work in another way or another business. In short a colony can never develop its Ricardo potential of comparative advantage as it has to work aligned to its hegemon’s Ricardo Potential, which is very different. This is why children move out and become fully sovereign to maximize their potential. Being colonies of an Empire will never let a country develop or move up. When children move out they have a small income and work their way up. Parents mostly give little help and expect little financial return. Colonies always are heavily indebted to the hegemon. They stay indebted. The empire exerts control via its credits and thus not only sovereignty is lost but corruption is brought in. Because if you want to thrive you need to work for the empire and its entities not for your country and its interests and potential. Indebted countries are corrupt countries as they need to bend to their creditors, whose interests are never aligned with the debtor country. The local country establishment will always seek profits from the hegemonial relationship not from their own national development. Development, if it happens, is extremely slow and inefficient and thus yields very low profit if at all. Working for the empire yields much higher profits faster. So the corruption is the willful, knowing misalignment of the activities of the establishment, away from their country’s interest towards the hegemon/empires interest. A sovereign long term stable governance system brings needed stability, development consistency and ensures its country’s interest are always first, thus enables an effective alignment of interests and potentials when it comes to international trade and cooperation in general.
To put it in perspective the china initiative is no more than a global Ponzi scheme. It’s not going to work for everyone in the long haul. China population is growing old rapidly. The new generation is not ready to create a family. China thinks that adding cardboard in with the concrete helps them stretch out their raw materials thus meeting its resourcefulness to their population and to you and me. It doesn’t matter what they do-it’s all junk.
"China is the first country that managed to develop from a third world level in the 1960ies to a prosperous industrialized country in just 40 years." NOT TRUE: South Korea, Singapore, Japan, Republic of China (Taiwan) , Malaysia are all examples of countries in Asia that did the same at far lower human and freedom costs.

I disagree with your suggestion or conclusion. Africa doesn’t need to be in debt traps by EU and the west. What African are asking is not finance or help from the west. Africans are asking no interference in their internal affairs and destabilizing African continent. EU should totally write off any kind of debt against Africa for the centuries of colonization and exploitation of African resources till today. Africa can manage both education and development on its own as it see fits the persistence of the west insisting to bre the helping hand and investor is ridiculous. What ever Africa is saying falling in deaf ears. I’ll repeat again and again even recently the west African leaders keep saying to France we want you just to take your military and leave Africa but what did France keep insisting we want to help Africa? Why when Africa keeps telling you I don’t need your help but you don’t want to pay to African critical minerals you keep saying Africa is poor with all do respect prof. Jeffery I disagree with your statement but of course you want to infantilize Africa as if you are the savior. It’s just sad you mention bill gates he’s the last person African needs. Please, respect African demand for peace and to respect its sovereignty May god help Africa
Ever hear this story: While out to sea, a large boat became shipwrecked and there was only a single survivor. This man prayed and asked God to save his life. Soon thereafter, another boat came by and offered the man some help. “No thanks,” he said. “I'm waiting for God to save me.” The men on the boat shrugged their shoulders and continued. As the man became more deeply concerned, another boat came by. Again, the people aboard offered this man some help, and again he politely decline. “I'm waiting for God to save me,” he said again. After some time, the man began to lose his faith, and soon after that he died. Upon reaching Heaven, he had a chance to speak with God briefly. “Why did you let me die? Why didn't you answer my prayers?” “Dummy, I sent you two boats!” The Universe is always watching out for the best interests of our spiritual evolution, even when we are too narrowly focused to see all the other opportunities it presents us. Sometimes, all that is needed is a change of perspective. fyi, from 1949-present China had taking a helping hand time to time to what China is today, if not like you suggest for Africa to do today, China would still be another India today. Why re-make the wheel when one offer to show you.
yes Kennedy is smart but can he win running independent. If he makes a deal with Trump, he can be an valuable asset in 2024 and run for president in 2028. This is also called smart.
RFK Jr. is a bad joke of a human being & a politico. Polling shows that he draws more "R" voters than "D" voters because Democrats aren't stupid.

London bridge is falling down, falling down, falling down. London Bridge is falling down--sooo sorry so much so badly--it’s just awful but over. China could have had a better democracy but chose to keep a iron curtain around them instead because they knew better. How is that working out? I personally have had to buy two new items from China, because I knew that from my experience that the first item would breakdown after only a few usage and then use parts however for the second item when it came time for it to be fixed! This is a very minuscule problem with china 🇨🇳 industry. If China is doing what they are doing to me what are they doing to their own people!

200% for you - global policy for the UN, not nationalistic policy of the US for interest of its citizens. Should UN Security Council members be updated? Does it need to be updated to be more representative? Should members of the Security Council be part of a military alliance? China is not in any military alliance. How about Russia? The other 3 are members of NATO!

The China BRI model so far work out because it does not go into debt service nor bankruptcy. Want a 30 year loan project, go to the Japanese banking system for they can do both (Project/30 yrs Loan).
Yeah, we do not have the delusional space to achieve what we want to see. 11:46 Me thinks Dr. Sachs is delusional! He’s definitely watching his words, not too amend historical facts
How can an impoverished nation have economic freedom when the West kept the African nations impoverished with debt traps!? US and Japan are the biggest debt trap with 80% of the debt trap in Africa. China provides infrastructures for Africa, this gave them economic freedom. By golly, there's your saying - economic freedom! It seems China is doing the right thing as you said. Whereas, US and the West had been preventing Africa from having economic freedom. Just look at what have US and the West have done for Africa (not to mention the other regions of the world) in the last 100 years? Nada.... the US and the West purposely kept them impoverished with debt traps!!

I'm so disappointed! I was hoping Dr Sachs would talk about the environmental devastation caused by neverending global wars, particularly with the USA's latest proxy war (Nordstream II, the Kharkov Dam, cluster munitions and depleted uranium shells, which all just add to the genocide that has been ongoing in the Eastern States since 2014...). It's truly amazing how rapidly you can develop your economy with citizen slave labour under a human-hating communist regime... Dr Sachs please ask China and India why they're polluting at a higher rate than they were 10 years ago? Humans don't want SDG, ESG or any of the other cultural-marxist ideologies being imposed by global elitists - noone wants UN/WEF/WHO/IMF dictating life... Climate change is definitely 'man-made' (those weather modification patents go back for decades...)
In case you dunno, 92% of ALL greenhouse gas came from global north even in 2022 accumulated from over 200 years according lancet research. Type Global North Is Responsible for 92% of Excess Emissions on goggle. CHINA has had rapid economic growth and increased pollution but they still produce far less greenhouse gas per person than folks in the west. China invested hundreds of billions in green energy, more than US and Europe combined, with 26 nuclear plants being built, and solar panels prices have plummeted due to China massive production so all countries could use solar energy cheaply. tesla produces half of EVs in China and many car manufacturers facing cheap Chinese EVs have to transition to manufacture CHEAPER EVs. when China is leading the way and providing the means for everyone to transition to a greener economy to reduce carbon emissions, would you still think China is at fault? Why not invest as much as China on green energy? without Chinese growing its economy, would there be hundreds of billions of investment?

It's a world of politics and armed conflict.
Prof Sachs is an economist without the ideology
Economy is about trading and growing the economies, is not about taking advantage of countries in vulnerable position, that is not economics is colonization
He rightly deserves the Nobel Price for Peace.
So right, I too am ashamed of our government, and have hope our new members will be better people
He represents humanity....more honest then "Gods" !
RESPECT !
Professor Sachs is a remarkable scholar!
Thank you Dr Sachs.
Dr Sachs and I are exactly the same age ; we’ve always been defending the same world views, and I know lots of so-called ‘boomers’ are actually sharing such common sense values. The point is, alas, Wisdom is not meant to be majoritary in any hedonistic-consumerist society…
Give a Man a Fish, and You Feed Him for a Day. Teach a Man To Fish, and You Feed Him for a Lifetime...
This is what China offer with China's non-interference directive with others govern.
Are the Chinese people happy? Aren’t they censored?
The western MSM are censored - try to get any positive news about China or Russia. UA-cam, Twitter (X), FaceBook - all are censored. Are Americans happy? Yes, the Chinese are very happy - more than 90% support their government (BTW, the polls are done by Harvard.)
@@loveofinquiry8067 So are those in the US. The difference is that in China you KNOW you are being censored, while in the US you are being censored but TOLD that you are not.
Try to condemn Israel/Jewxxx in US and you will be kicked out from your life.
Great
This is a speech Tinubu and ECOWAS need to hear
Thank you Prof Sach's for bringing issues of development assistance and loans for poor African countries and putting the Malawi case on the limelight. Keep advocating and bringing a different view that the current approaches by the World Bank and IMF
DR SACHS ... PRESCIENCE OF THE 21st century WORLD 加油 Dr Sachs
Professor Sachs should be at the WHITE HOUSE….to smart for any losers in both side of the aisle …..
Don’t give up Professor ❤
What does it mean, he is speaking on the UN compound❓To whom is he speaking❓who is the audience....
But it is an excellent speech. Thank you, AUS. I wished the USA would let us breath, and be an independent country.
💚🦘🕊🇨🇳🇷🇺😊
Fat chance AUS being independent. Too many yanks and poms here with severe parentage withdrawal syndrome.
From what I’ve gathered he is in China 🇨🇳 backyard. This is why he has to be two faced and watch what he says about on China 🇨🇳
Thank you, Dr. J. Sachs. Please take good care of your neighbors. In times of trouble, they will be the first to come knocking at your door offering help. Look to the right, to the left, to the north, and to the south. Do not harbor a Zionist or Fascist mentality.
Sach is a universal man.
Thank you for sharing this event. I hope you can be able to get some help. I will pray for your country. Lynn in Naples FL😎
World-Class Intellect Sharing his knowledge with the world.
Love JS!
Sachs one love ❤
I am a tremendous admirer of Professor Sachs. He is excellence personified in constructive 🇨🇳 + 🇺🇸 dialogue. Not that I agree with everything he says. From what I can make out from the first few minutes (please someone correct me if I am mistaken), this talk was NOT given on 2023-10-07 during the shocking, traumatizing events in Israel, despite the upload date. It is my sense that 🇨🇳 & 🇷🇺 urgently need to condemn 🇮🇷, as the balance of the world's moral geopolitical power has now shifted markedly against the extremist regime in 🇮🇷 & its enablers. 🇷🇺 in particular needs to decouple from 🇮🇷 by condemning Hamas, condemning Iranian incitement of Hamas, ending Russian use of Iranian military technology to defend annexation claims in 🇺🇦, & pressuring 🇮🇷 to immediately renounce all of its highly enriched uranium under rigorous IAEA monitoring. I am generally opposed to Russophobic & Sinophobic discourse in 🇺🇸 politics, but I find the apparent inability of Russia & China to straightforwardly condemn Hamas as a terrorist organization is absolutely bone-chilling. Do you side with Hamas, Iran, Russia & China, Professor Sachs, at this critical juncture in the dialogue of civilizations? Thank you.🙏
Outstanding Advice for the world as it evolves, delivered with excellent clarity.
Globally we are at crossroads, as clearly evidenced previous systems developed by 'divide and rule' powers have over decades been proven disastrous for humanity. Totally disrespective of others, it was excessively exploitative and suppressive to all, developing and small nations, it's inhumane to perhaps 50% of global populations, and now still totally disregards their own citizens and allies.
There sadly remain some corrupt and greedy in administration.
Yes respect and take good care of your neighbors and build back better Globally. BBBG.
Divide and rule is DONE. We have all had too much of it and for too long.
Thank you Professor Sachs.
Zero Carbon is insane .
Insanity is the name of the game. What they don’t understand is if we were able to clean up the mess that we would most certainly be creating the ice age that is held back by the greenhouse effect for now. We are still in a period of the next ice age, except that right now we are in the intermodal cycle and the greenhouse effect is helping keep us from freezing. The temperature of the earth will drop and the greenhouse effect will not stop it.
What if people with such a knowledge and common sense would rule instead of the corrupt and criminal elites the world suffers nowadays?
Environmental problems (resource depletion, pollution, energy needs) can be solved technically when linked to consumption issues. Our socio-economic system is built on cooperative abuse and exploitation, primarily managed through debt, backed by propaganda and violent intervention, as deemed appropriate to maintain the status quo. Attempts at a paradigm shift towards focus on environment rather than quality of life have great commercial benefits, notably via the enforced replacement of old with new. The aim is to achieve environmentally sustainable cooperative abuse and exploitation of people, backed by the aforementioned, supported by digital control and censorship. It is a regime under which I shall not live because I will have opted out. Life for me is a chance to have enjoyable experiences and to help other people have enjoyable experiences. If it ceases to be that for me, I’m off to self-compost. In the meantime, best wishes from me.
I have said many times that the landfills are going to be our treasure trove of the future. When man has scarcities of resources to make things-they will have the resources necessary in the future by digging up landfills
Excellent question. I know a country in Aftica that won't get a dollar or euro from mé!
THE PRINCIPLE IS: YOUR DEVELOPMNT IS MY DEVELOPMENT. WHATEVER IS GOOD FOR YOU IS ALSO GOOD FOR ME
This is a man worthy of Noble prize if it is fair.
China is the first country that managed to develop from a third world level in the 1960ies to a prosperous industrialized country in just 40 years. 3 success factors were key: Sovereignty, a homogeneous high alignment long term stable governance model, and the ability, based on the first two, to formulate and implement multi-decadal development projects in all socio-economic dimensions.
So the recipe is very simple: be sovereign in culture, politically and economically.
Size is not a success factor. Why? Because when you are small you can develop your niche Ricardo potential fully and mostly all the big countries and the empire don’t focus on you as long as you can make them belief, you are actually doing what they want you to do, without actually doing it. You fly under the radar, and your Sovereignty is your niche which the Hegemon has no time to look at.
When you are a larger country of course you are noticed and if you sit on interesting Ricardo potential the Hegemon wants to control you as a colony.
Without Sovereignty, a country has no sovereign governance and culture and economy and cannot develop strategically as it needs to do what the Hegemon and the Empire demand and need, not what its population needs.
So who is sovereign?
China, Russia, Iran, North Korea, Venezuela, Burma.
Who is mostly sovereign?
India, Saudi Arabia ( since joining BRICS and staying neutral in the NATO Russia war), Brazil ( under Lula and Rousseff), Algeria, Vietnam, Indonesia, South Africa, and couple of others.
Who is a colony: The EU, NATO countries and many countries in Latin America and Africa and Oceania and quite a few in Asia.
An imperial business model is a pyramidal model. The Hegemon draws a 5% free rent from its colonies. But within an empire there are middlemen and they all draw their cut. The cote of the EU draws about 4% and that makes some 10% rent extraction @cross all hierarchies.
When a company has to pay 10% of its profits, it will never have any profits left to invest into its future. And more so, it cannot invest in high ROI development, as it has to invest what increases imperial profits.
It is like a specialized worker in the imperial business and cannot simply switch jobs, or work in another way or another business.
In short a colony can never develop its Ricardo potential of comparative advantage as it has to work aligned to its hegemon’s Ricardo Potential, which is very different.
This is why children move out and become fully sovereign to maximize their potential.
Being colonies of an Empire will never let a country develop or move up.
When children move out they have a small income and work their way up. Parents mostly give little help and expect little financial return.
Colonies always are heavily indebted to the hegemon. They stay indebted.
The empire exerts control via its credits and thus not only sovereignty is lost but corruption is brought in.
Because if you want to thrive you need to work for the empire and its entities not for your country and its interests and potential.
Indebted countries are corrupt countries as they need to bend to their creditors, whose interests are never aligned with the debtor country. The local country establishment will always seek profits from the hegemonial relationship not from their own national development. Development, if it happens, is extremely slow and inefficient and thus yields very low profit if at all.
Working for the empire yields much higher profits faster.
So the corruption is the willful, knowing misalignment of the activities of the establishment, away from their country’s interest towards the hegemon/empires interest.
A sovereign long term stable governance system brings needed stability, development consistency and ensures its country’s interest are always first, thus enables an effective alignment of interests and potentials when it comes to international trade and cooperation in general.
To put it in perspective the china initiative is no more than a global Ponzi scheme.
It’s not going to work for everyone in the long haul. China population is growing old rapidly. The new generation is not ready to create a family. China thinks that adding cardboard in with the concrete helps them stretch out their raw materials thus meeting its resourcefulness to their population and to you and me. It doesn’t matter what they do-it’s all junk.
"China is the first country that managed to develop from a third world level in the 1960ies to a prosperous industrialized country in just 40 years." NOT TRUE: South Korea, Singapore, Japan, Republic of China (Taiwan) , Malaysia are all examples of countries in Asia that did the same at far lower human and freedom costs.

Love your neighbours,as self ...
Sachs, Africa, so it is a diamond heist!
Jeffrey Sachs I bet he could sell one of those 10 cylinder Cadillacs to Elon Musk.
Producing solar panels and large windmills requires LOTS of material and energy. and so we are STUCK. We CANNOT have EVs for everyone, and I am NOT traveling these days. Mr. Sachs, we see you like to travel, can you please do more VIDEO visitations from a single point on the planet...SDGs means LESS airplanes, SIR!
The whole point of the climate scaremongering is so you will fully accept the global elitists Agenda 2030 dictates (I don't think you'd like Jeff's view on who started the USA's proxy war with Russia, the Ukranazi problem, or who blew up Nordstream II).
You won't be travelling anywhere, darling!... You'll be living in your 15 minute, 24/7/365 AI-surveilled SMART city pod. And, you won't need an EV - all appts will be viia X-Live, or within a 15 minute stroll. All of your purchases will be determined by your Social Credit Score (SCS) and this will be assessed by monitoring your compliance 24/7/365 with SDG, ESG, CRT, DEI, SEL (and all other cultural-marxist) requirements. Your global digital ID (the most convenient and useful option is a neuro implant) and programmable CBDC will provide VR access to driving, flying and vacation simulations (as long as your SCS confirms you're worthy of such decadent indulgence)... Now, be a good global citizen and get your booster!
We are in a world of a lot of hurt right now and I will not be able to see the end result, because I will be dead ☠️
China can't give 30 Y loans because the geo-politics made such an investment high-risk one.
Parabéns pelo trabalho vamos parar de falar em conflitos internacionais acabamos colocando mais lenha na fogueira e não conseguimos apagar o incêndio. que Deus/Ala abençoe.
I disagree with your suggestion or conclusion. Africa doesn’t need to be in debt traps by EU and the west. What African are asking is not finance or help from the west. Africans are asking no interference in their internal affairs and destabilizing African continent.
EU should totally write off any kind of debt against Africa for the centuries of colonization and exploitation of African resources till today.
Africa can manage both education and development on its own as it see fits the persistence of the west insisting to bre the helping hand and investor is ridiculous. What ever Africa is saying falling in deaf ears.
I’ll repeat again and again even recently the west African leaders keep saying to France we want you just to take your military and leave Africa but what did France keep insisting we want to help Africa? Why when Africa keeps telling you I don’t need your help but you don’t want to pay to African critical minerals you keep saying Africa is poor with all do respect prof. Jeffery I disagree with your statement but of course you want to infantilize Africa as if you are the savior.
It’s just sad you mention bill gates he’s the last person African needs.
Please, respect African demand for peace and to respect its sovereignty
May god help Africa
Ever hear this story:
While out to sea, a large boat became shipwrecked and there was only a single survivor. This man prayed and asked God to save his life. Soon thereafter, another boat came by and offered the man some help.
“No thanks,” he said. “I'm waiting for God to save me.”
The men on the boat shrugged their shoulders and continued. As the man became more deeply concerned, another boat came by. Again, the people aboard offered this man some help, and again he politely decline. “I'm waiting for God to save me,” he said again.
After some time, the man began to lose his faith, and soon after that he died. Upon reaching Heaven, he had a chance to speak with God briefly.
“Why did you let me die? Why didn't you answer my prayers?”
“Dummy, I sent you two boats!”
The Universe is always watching out for the best interests of our spiritual evolution, even when we are too narrowly focused to see all the other opportunities it presents us. Sometimes, all that is needed is a change of perspective.
fyi, from 1949-present China had taking a helping hand time to time to what China is today, if not like you suggest for Africa to do today, China would still be another India today. Why re-make the wheel when one offer to show you.
Audrey, the sanest voice in the comments.
We should never try to fix a problem with the person/ideology that caused it. The meddling needs to end.
yes Kennedy is smart but can he win running independent. If he makes a deal with Trump, he can be an valuable asset in 2024 and run for president in 2028. This is also called smart.
RFK Jr. is a bad joke of a human being & a politico. Polling shows that he draws more "R" voters than "D" voters because Democrats aren't stupid. I am a good democrat but I never though very much of the Kennedy family. Also why would one respect someone who says he is a "D" making a deal with the slimy traitor and liar Trump ?? By 2028 Trump will be dead or history.
London bridge is falling down, falling down, falling down. London Bridge is falling down--sooo sorry so much so badly--it’s just awful but over.
China could have had a better democracy but chose to keep a iron curtain around them instead because they knew better. How is that working out?
I personally have had to buy two new items from China, because I knew that from my experience that the first item would breakdown after only a few usage and then use parts however for the second item when it came time for it to be fixed! This is a very minuscule problem with china 🇨🇳 industry. If China is doing what they are doing to me what are they doing to their own people!
He's also speaking to Chinese. They don't reduce carbon output. They depend on coal, gas and nuclear. Without it they would be energy short which means less manufacturing, less,food, less jobs.
China has done more than any other Country in the development of alternative sources of energy green energy
It’s sad that a person can be lionized for telling the truth and that is considered “challenging orthodoxy”

I ciuld say next year I'd like to eat a litre of ice cream it's on my wishlist and mean while I can't even get a GP Doctorwhen I'm unwell in the UK. where does that leave my litre of ice cream?
Professor Sachs has taken his mask off.

200% for you - global policy for the UN, not nationalistic policy of the US for interest of its citizens. Should UN Security Council members be updated? Does it need to be updated to be more representative? Should members of the Security Council be part of a military alliance? China is not in any military alliance. How about Russia? The other 3 are members of NATO!

You mean ruins?
I wonder if you know that the American Indigenous people were not the first settlers. They conquered also the indigenous peoples who had been living here before they arrived
38:00 China BRI 30 year loan: Not going to happen for China is not a bank, money going into these project need to be return so, two more project can be started. It is a capital loan project(s) of the future. Soon apply, the sooner the return will support for more project to be done. The China BRI model so far work out because it does not go into debt service nor bankruptcy.
Want a 30 year loan project, go to the Japanese banking system for they can do both (Project/30 yrs Loan).
What happens if the receiving country cannot repay the loans? Can they just be forgiven?
NO China will want either the money or assets in the country as several countries have found out.

Looks interesting but i can't hear shyte.
Yeah, we do not have the delusional space to achieve what we want to see. 11:46
Me thinks Dr. Sachs is delusional! He’s definitely watching his words, not too amend historical facts
Is Jeffrey Sachs related to Goldman Sachs? 🤣
Seems so or not 😮or...
Poverty is the result of lack of economic freedom - search economic freedom index. There are numerous ones.
Why re-make the wheel when one offer to show you.
How can an impoverished nation have economic freedom when the West kept the African nations impoverished with debt traps!? US and Japan are the biggest debt trap with 80% of the debt trap in Africa. China provides infrastructures for Africa, this gave them economic freedom. By golly, there's your saying - economic freedom! It seems China is doing the right thing as you said. Whereas, US and the West had been preventing Africa from having economic freedom. Just look at what have US and the West have done for Africa (not to mention the other regions of the world) in the last 100 years? Nada.... the US and the West purposely kept them impoverished with debt traps!!

I'm so disappointed! I was hoping Dr Sachs would talk about the environmental devastation caused by neverending global wars, particularly with the USA's latest proxy war (Nordstream II, the Kharkov Dam, cluster munitions and depleted uranium shells, which all just add to the genocide that has been ongoing in the Eastern States since 2014...). It's truly amazing how rapidly you can develop your economy with citizen slave labour under a human-hating communist regime... Dr Sachs please ask China and India why they're polluting at a higher rate than they were 10 years ago? Humans don't want SDG, ESG or any of the other cultural-marxist ideologies being imposed by global elitists - noone wants UN/WEF/WHO/IMF dictating life... Climate change is definitely 'man-made' (those weather modification patents go back for decades...)
In case you dunno, 92% of ALL greenhouse gas came from global north even in 2022 accumulated from over 200 years according lancet research. Type Global North Is Responsible for 92% of Excess Emissions on goggle.
CHINA has had rapid economic growth and increased pollution but they still produce far less greenhouse gas per person than folks in the west.
China invested hundreds of billions in green energy, more than US and Europe combined, with 26 nuclear plants being built, and solar panels prices have plummeted due to China massive production so all countries could use solar energy cheaply.
tesla produces half of EVs in China and many car manufacturers facing cheap Chinese EVs have to transition to manufacture CHEAPER EVs.
when China is leading the way and providing the means for everyone to transition to a greener economy to reduce carbon emissions, would you still think China is at fault? Why not invest as much as China on green energy? without Chinese growing its economy, would there be hundreds of billions of investment?
Professor without moral values 😢
