7:22 am
night, but kelly has already declared himself the winner in a post on the social media site x. his popularity is largely attributed to his crack down on criminal gangs. more than 70000 suspected gang members have been arrested since he declared a state of emergency 2 years ago. more now and this from manuel rep hello, who is in san salvador. the polls have closed here in the el salvador, though there seems to be little doubt that it's going to be anything short of a landslide victory for salvador in president. now you book it in the hours just before the closing of the polls, the president held a press conference where he touted some of his achievements, not least, of which was a mass of reduction to crime. and getting rid of the countries, things which in itself, undeniably has led to a transformation from one of the most dangerous places in the world to arguably the safest country and the western hemisphere. those were the words of a president, kelley. he also had a message to critics who have referred to him as an autocrat. those that have
7:23 am
referred to him as a dictator. he said, no one has the moral authority to say what the salvador and people want more than this up more than the salvadoran people themselves. and it has been an undeniable transformation here. you can see it in the, in the streets since what's led to so much popularity for president kelley, when human rights observers around the world say however, is at what cost a loss of civil liberties and consolidation of power. the stacking of the supreme court, which has led the president himself to seek re election despite a constitutional ban against re election. but again, these are all details that the people will solve it, or at least most of them don't seem to bother by made it up a little al jazeera salvador. and now is of the border between mexico in the united states, where republicans are heading out to what they say are president jo biden's reckless open border policies. the republican governor of texas greg habits and 14 other state governors from his party or an eagle pass. the city is at the center of the
7:24 am
political feud between republicans and democrats over how many migrants are crossing the border. recently, abbot went against convention to the boy his own state police along the border. i do show castro has more from eagle bass. it has been threat. texas governor greg abbott was flanked by 14 fellow republican governors in this attempt to show a force that came in defense of a move that really can't be over stated in both it's controversy and its significance. and that move is abbott's open defiance of a us supreme court order. this order which came about a month ago, tells the state of texas that it must allow us border patrol to access the border in this part of ego passed texas. and to carry out the federal government's will, including cutting through razor wire, which was put here by the state. but that has not happened. we can still see the state troops who are blocking access and guarding this gate in the border fence.
7:25 am
and abbot says he is doing this again and opened defiance of the supreme court ruling because he claims that there is a loophole in the us constitution saying he can seize essentially these military powers. when a quote invasion is upon his state. and that is the term it uses to describe the migrants who've been coming across the border. we are here just in a loud and clear message that we are banding together to fight, to ensure that we will be able to maintain our constitutional guarantee that states will be able to defend against any type of imminent danger or an invasion that has been threatened by joe biden, and his abject refusal to enforce the immigration laws of the united states of america. we'd have to reach back all the way to the 19 fifties and us history for a comparable episode to this. and that was an ugly chapter when the governor of
7:26 am
arkansas refused to comply with the supreme court order to desegregate schools in his state. that ultimately ended with the federal government sending the military to that state of arkansas to carry out the disaggregation. and people are fearing that this situation now in texas could develop in a similar manner, hitting the state forces against the federal forces which could be have. it could be very dangerous, of course, for the migrants caught in the middle of that all and dangerous for this country. heidi to castro out a 0 equal pass texas proposition candidates incentive goals say that they will appeal president mack yourselves decree to postpone this month's presidential election. demonstrators have been holding protests against the decision with police responding by firing tear gas and even detaining an opposition presidential candidate. nicholas hack reports from the car. the. nothing that can stop
7:27 am
as says presidential hopeful i'm day and go. we're exercising our basic right. as we have an appointment with this senegalese people, security forces prevent her from meeting party supporters. then she's arrested accused of taking part. and then the illegal gathering mast officers seemed forcing her into a police van hours before the start of campaigning on saturday. present like you saw cancelled this month's presidential election. he says he's protecting democracy and isn't trying to extend his own term. but his decision is feeling widespread anger in the district of the car named liberty protestors showing their defiance of the cancellation of the vote is seen as an injustice protest. years before the say, once again, the powerful or robbing them of a chance to make their own future. so a lot of money, we are in a country where people are mistreated, it's really tough for us. the world needs to understand. this is
7:28 am
a cry from the heart. i'm a struggling entrepreneur. i have a master's degree. i'm live selling coffee on the street. yeah, no work. jobs are given to. those are political connections. we won't work. so we want to work for our country. our time has come now, they're protesting with the opposition is calling a constitutional, coo and block and avenue leading to the presidential palace there urging others to join their revolts. there's been running battle between protesters that i've been throwing rocks and the police have been responding by firing care gas. they want to prevent this. yeah, they're going to take place. but supporters of the opposition are determined to gather and to get their voice is heard. the west african regional organizations echo was the us and friends of all expressed concern and urge to be those bits of an election day. do you feel that it could pull up any point and this is not what
7:29 am
we these of because the people themselves know we just conflict? no. any conflict, but you have localize citation isn't conflicts and based, right. then destroy think, i suppose that property was been regarded as the most stable democracy in west africa no longer seems so stable. nicholas hawk algae 0 as in bob way, has one of the highest inflation rates in the world. and the local currency is constantly losing value as hiring latasha reports from the capital hawaii, people are looking for safe ways to protect their money. so this is one of how that is which tablets newly built homes and an exclusive estate. here is the middle class of, of when you development also going up. and these are low cost houses in another part of the capital. zimbabwe has one of the highest inflation rates in the world. investing in property is all several people are trying to protect the earning y'all
7:30 am
to the present. nobody. i think that's the biggest advantage in the current guys besides the battlement. the only way to preserve your body is by investing in assets was assets tends to appreciate in value over time. right, well, much it and i saw his father's generation struggle off today with time and savings were wiped out by installation. he believes is less risk in brick and mortar investment. so he's helping build the family home. and that's it. that won't be too affected every time doesn't bobby, and all that tumbles. you can see may be the price will fit in products dollar to day, maybe tomorrow is the safety. but when you have properties you, i'm sure you can see them on it. which of i'm underlines because it's on the bobby and have a bad experience is with financial institutions. here, salaries and savings can disappear over night within place them adjusting the value of people's savings. so i'm a building homes of money for a relative abroad to achieve some economic security and.
