source, the region is being actively forward to slide boss stations now surrounded with concrete blocks. we can do this, i'm blocked with sun box. and so instead lessons of being shown in public on a few screens. locals of the company used to both the conflict and the idea of a flight to the beach rent. then there were no soldiers or military targets in the center of the city. there. the area was crowded with people who were simply getting ready for the new year's holiday. they were buying presence, a new ice rink hedges opens children and we're looking forward to going there. but that was exactly what caught hits. just doing this help breach of p. steel. know the opposite. more man or listing in the army. ukrainians are getting exactly the opposite of what they try to achieve. to build it up or spend steel is rushes bread, basket one over 3, just regions. summer time fuels here full of weed from flowers and farms. but the problem is that we can farms and fuels can provide you with the main thing. see

a know safety. what else can inventory for the week? i'll scan yeah. defense system scan, because it has changed everything slowly, but surely it hardens both the region and people leaving here some for the one of the system to find. but the question remains, these one will attend, which i faulty reporting from building with the other. some of those cubic traffic or international solidarity conference is well underway instead of africa. of the countries routing parties hosting the event where they condemn the us embargo on the island nation level. john list base us more on this since 1994. when south africa achieved a democracy, it is due to minutes and wavering support for the republic of cuba. many of the speakers at the 7th cuba africa international solidarity conference have noted the lessons that they have learned from the nate nelson mandela to cuba is

commander in chief of del castro. so that because deputy president told him, i said do it. on the other hand, says their global plans to continue ended show the realization of the rights of the people of cuba as well as palestinians continue as progressive formations from the continent made this conference serves as an opportunity to renew our commitment to adjust this for or not on the fall account is, but for the bedtime and of the weather. from the prevention of the arrival of oil in cuba to international trade, the country says the financial and economic blockages by the west continue to suffocate the country as it remains in the list of countries that supports the terrorist organizations. as a result of cuba says, many countries continue to have reservations and the united states of america and

being able to trade with cuba for economic development opportunities. the minutes solved international relations in south africa duct and i let the ponder, has condemned america's financial embargo against cuba. south africa has consistently voted in favor of the annual you and resignation. calling for the end of the economic, commercial and financial embargo imposed by the united states. we have also campaigns actively was civil overnight is ations for the release of the tube, and fives, and call them the us government to release the. we also lobbied into nashville support for the release, the fact that one of the 2 been 5 leaders is with us right here today is testament to the value of being to match the solidarity as so that's because

continues to support cuba to bar on the other hand has inquiries and called many other nations to stand behind palestine through supporting south africa before the international court of justice. what is but it's ok, swap. cuba expresses its support for the request by the republic of south africa to initiate proceedings against israel at the international court of justice. this proceeding for the principle oregon of justice of the united nations must be understood and treated as an urgent call to stop the horrific international crimes of genocide, crimes against humanity and up are tied being committed against the palestinian people. we urge all the organizations here today to sign the letter of endorsement calling on states to support south africa's application as to the international court of justice on the genocide convention. the conference which is aimed to

continue the solid data retain between africa and cuba will continue to search in south africa until the 17th of january. i'm a team to atlanta for our team use in south africa. well, i've actually all day this our special to get more stories at the top of the i see you again the the

the thank you so much for joining us this afternoon. a very we hectic schedule for members of the national executive committee of the african national congress. 112 years on looking at the foreign policies of the african national congress. how have they involved to look at the international twins? do you think they've evolved? thank you. very much for inviting us and also let me convey condolences to members

and supporters of being so who died or that we yes. and it was a said that a experience being informed what will be communicating in the visit to the familial for monday? $112.00. yes. what is it? 20 volts task as the in see it from positive resistance. to that i go to integration. i left a solid delta t i solution of about states of africa to negotiations and the being part of multi let the positions and platforms. and here we are today. we celebrate 212 years having and become part of the community and very important and strategic community of nations that does not just

looking at the political relations, but also that is a common interest when it comes to inclusive growth. secondly, we, we, we, we've also come a long way having been part of the normalized movement that we remain committed to that position of being on my life at the we remain the outspoken, well, we believe that a view has to be to be conveyed and to be understood, justice we have seen how of played a role in the continuing to play enrolled with regards to the rest. yeah, you creating that situation with our president and the the 8th education that engaged with the both of us we are in, in euclid and, and yet to the um, does the years ago women and children of palestine stood with us against the above did. so that's the car and was to do it also in an occupied the

environment and also being explicit by the israeli government. when i hit today, it does then select government that does take them to submit that to the which therefore means that indeed, oh, for the impulses have advanced your does to a vision of a better world to how do we build this the color? and lastly, you use, you know, we applied to those, what was the promoting? it means that great that includes, they did the plate in africa through the i forgot to do it clement, i'm, we, we, we, we, we, we have it and it is a nation. and most and put into the amc that also knows that some of them are new in the international fund to make take positions. that's me and double knows us against us. but we, we are where we are because of us also did that. so this,

this is where we are, and it's something between that, that on this, let's have a, the said student of genuinely with intentionally there's a reflection on the situation. didn't, does that and the was been and see holes that this and one of those. but some guests that we had who called vague nobody on these occasions, we have the n c in their lives. but the some with a special message that comes from the friends of partners, ben in technician id. and the painting that was done by a child in the, the occupied delta's of palestine that shows the unity of um, the oil prices in unit 2 of the got. and it tells us that we're leaving my, do us commitment and call and as putting it into action. so our international relations policy has now get up to us decisive action that some of them is costly.

but it does to because it, because it was costing for other nations when they don't with us. i'm interested to find out costs the in lots sense because a lot of people have raised concerns about houses as well. that's because supports behind palestine going to affect its relations with countries like the united states and the united kingdom given the fact that they have supported as well. that's a good to add up saying that they may be those that to assume that they have some football of and, and that's exactly what our policy is about games that can be, you need let the lives of and do, and also the end, the, my new will fall international conventions and spiritual and, and editors precisely because of that. but we would enjoy this then do the people of a palace that know we will of cause we have a different relationship with those that are supporting a the, the,

about the is the likely of live. and of course, i was, is not about being, i'm to the people of is a right onto this as to why and desire and isn't what i'm to get out of. uh, suffering eh, is states and what, what, what g, a dental slide. so you mentioned brakes, and you mentioned that the development in so far as the international relations and the policies are concerned. is there any c, continuously engaging on how it can strengthen its relations with countries like russia, of course. and as you know, historically our historical allies in, in, in the last year as the communist applied to a flushing. but of course, what the united punch is that there's no empower. and in the past due had to have to go to the soviet, to none. and to the end, the but the soviet to that we had to,

to relate with those putting together. but just, and we, we not only looking at the political relationships, oh, it came through breaks, but also developed a lot of relationships around it. just a $2.00 to $3.00 and a $23.00 shall intelligence out of our issue. so for menu, for shelby and, and also in the defense is space. so yes, we're doing a lot. but what we now emphasize from the side of leads, people to people releases, making sure that it does not, does government ad. but it must be nations that the presented by these governments who must now know each other. little total has been through exchange programs of young people and most importantly, through the use of fund of communication platforms and exchanging of knowledge and in any other such that sits in, in, in,

in information that each one of us is able to purchase the south african agency lid, government has proposed a 7 point plan implementing the national assembly and how it views the developments in the middle east. and so far as the resolution is concerned. and part of those include a 2 state solution, but we've seen the, the response from israel and given the kind of responses that they've given, not only recent feet in the hey we've, we've heard statements that we'll also put before the court. and so far as the statement of some of the statement from is vile, do you, in your view, thinks that going forward? you, as the african national congress would be able to collectively know whether or not that let me, let me rephrase this question. these solutions that sold africa has put on the

table, including the 2 state solution. if the out come in the hey, does not save of the order that you are seeking. what other solutions are you saying shouldn't be looked at in, in the concept of 1st, whatever the outcome, especially with believe that we have a valid case. what, what, what calling for an immediate, immediate says via quoting for an immediate action that's about to have. so that then you might have given what's getting come through and stuff in the event of the cards, things otherwise i think it to be also they are on the responsibility to, to have, make us understand what do they have driven them. not to appreciate that this is actually a violation of the, of the general side to convention. there are other things that do they have to, to, to look at. one of the things that is a non negotiable for us. it's this yourself,

negotiations coming to the table and then showed him that to the stokes and allowing the affective parties to engage amongst themselves. secondly, what would love to get out of the things that we also have? so that's i have also consumed that remember glove, only 1961 that's vincent from them go to us is when the nation or when wouldn't, wouldn't, wouldn't ab about it's and movement and the oppressed so that they're not being listened to and to the might of the state is being used against the of clothes that one of the 2 of the extreme and means we also support didn't. and looking at the issues that out and the it both costs this investments and some of the options. because initially understanding with our own comforts and part of that they've been said that we will not go immediately into postcards and this investment was

productive significance in the old provides. deltas those o 2. but the one funding that has that though, the bud. so what, what is it that do they want to do? is it security defense? we of look at those pieces almost hits them ways is that we know it do that really quick questions on us, but this is the means. it's not going to be, is at all that's at the one, it's about getting f relations, cutting the relations, and then so it's called our own that representatives. what consultation does is it does happen to the south. african embassy has been told in the, in the, in the day to pose a nation who that, that's killed children in a predicts hospital, a kind of a nation that can claim to, to have a,

a relationship with those of us who believe that this is an act of genocide and the ends. it'd be news that leads the closer we can, we can no longer go back and it is only through the mode to up the road blocks that these things can be done him. so i'm calling for the form of the you and it's including, you'd say, a security to come slip. so that's then what we'll do. we'll do not dev. those will see themselves, this power undermining the use of the my little or those was seem to be at the end of the developed. so we all of those options have to be coincidence. but also with most of the guys that and, and the advised, but the people of color spent themselves just in the context of engagement, seeing the trajectory all as well. engagement and response to this whole war. and

them arguing in quotes that the context of the 70 plus years of occupation in palestine does not match that in that context, you think they would even dare to gauge. i mean, you mentioned the recent to by the president with the, as a heads of states to try and speak to the president of russia and of ukraine. but do you think that even at that level to engage countries live south africa has gone as far as the world international court stage to shame them from what they have done? do you think that would even be able to come to the table to the time when we taught the south african the government to never come to the table? and it took intonation at nice solutions that they realize that they can not continue like this. even with up update is the right or the wireless, so we'll have to come to that transition at additional point you have some of us

thought that was the united states. you don't it particular view. you will see people of jewish or religion protesting in thing, not in my me that's, that's a massive store. um, when you, when, when you will have what fold up, the guy has done knowing very well that the anything may be an outcome. we even know what situation find that you have to come back to the, to the table. so this is what we believe in this. they didn't see that at some point to the left to come together. but it's kind of late in the more the developments on october 7, developers that have of, of course, shaken the entire globe. but the amc has been very vocal dating back to a former president, nelson mandela about the issues that are affecting the palestinians. as the agency

that has really been vocal about palestine, do you perhaps think that the error of states a not going as far as south africa has gone? what we're going to do to engage ever, both nations and, and governments, they've got to their own way of, uh, seeing things just as it goes up and with us. that would be by left about the engagement that would also be of age and that didn't engage mintz. and that wouldn't be also engagement in the multi laptop platforms and whatnot. we wouldn't want to talk about why others have updates to do that. but the week for now we won many in the world to appreciate why we've taken this down. you mentioned drastic steps against israel, which some of position participate in south africa to demonstrations on the streets taken to the streets. courtney for a boy called all the products from israel in the country. now, are you giving us

a word that indeed the amc is considering these drastic measure dependent on the outcomes of what is transpiring in the hey, whatever means that that was used by the international community to bring. so that's it can together the update to the gym to that with the liberation movements . all those means must also be explored for the liberation of the people of palestine. and then sort of fuse if you to, to be accused as the legal representatives or from us of the days. um we, we, we are not in x one, but we understand these kind of x is what it happened to us. and then the formation of the window is, is with the gloria, if a meal of the african this now congress and um we, we, we, we, we went to the united nations,

which is close to the world and the president of the game. i'll do that. i would just leverage and kind of busting everybody. does the photo as this is what it is, and what's happened with the potations to as was going to meet with the instantly the ship. and they knew that simple vinson, coming to what the escape and gauging before the put their flat data. we may or may see the i'm you of is the right if and my to i me. but finally the left to come to the table. find that do they have to talk? but blood to must stop is the intention of eliminating the police do means because of what is happening that is about the illumination of a nation. what do hold a situation with somebody to get that killed in a pediatrician and what's because what do call the killing of people in, in the mosque in the place of worship? men being taken out of their homes and boys? well you'll, you'll actually literally go in full civilians and in the annual situation,

hospital splits as of safety for ever protected. but in this instance, well, you could see that this is an eggs, a games to monday. and it's an intention of me. they took a nation and hence why we went to the hate because that's the depth to the stuff is in this nation. guns kind of puts you know, into, into extinction. what was the world is watching? as i let you go, you draw a lot of similarities between what you call that pop up date, israel, government, and the then tell the african opportunity government. now, do you see history repeating itself in instances like since the ship, for example, we speaking on our teeth. many people aren't able to access a such a platform because of these width and sanctions. and that hinders on freedom of

expression. freedom of speech. would you then say history is playing itself out in the developments today? absolutely. and then hence, well i'll wait in suspense that the most beautiful of all this month do you have to write an institution? um the, the issue sofa is the right to information access to information. it depends. yeah. and so that's the way the couldn't you know that since that's even the news and events that take place in this country we, we have lived under a situation we as a child involved in this plugin fulfilled, we have to defend ourselves. it's, you know, it lead of edge of the rubbish bin and the store and to see the total bill is always doing that in 2024, 2023 it's. it's actually brings that he started colleagues split and using

not when i and this forms that these children can go through. what i've gone through the kids of the, the women getting killed, such as being bombed and off. and what to those was to do with the about a big so lovely spending with about this is way. so they remain consistent. and 2 people and 2 peas and keep democracy, but protecting themselves as nations. that's a democratic. i know i said i'd let you go as been working with the minister of justice and this, along with you was hailed by a lot of nbc members for the work that they've done at the global stage in the hague. what are the views overall of the any see, especially for you,

given the fact that your role within the organization is to deal with international relations and the policies, the international policies in the face of the organization. what is your view in so far as how he is there? any member of the agency has dealt with that situation? of course, the questions that we even coming as who as they came out of the quote from the west and media which has a different view. some people going as far as complaining that they did not broad costs. all that because sides. but they decided on the next day to broad costs, israel's defense, what do you make all of him and being able to stand for the agency and the government? the good thing about the good news now call it says that it's pointless is make you to be able to, to remain consistent on what needs to be done on that level that has given the, the technician out relations. but this is of the, the, to

a level but the world was, some were watching all but those who, why you put clips when it comes to does this when it comes to them across the board in a day to, to an extent where there was a blackout that did, that's even with us. it was just now in the ninety's $99.00, just that madiba was taken of the lives of those are put in that this table is and yet they wouldn't do a plus on would you call give me a well, i called. that's what we i so that's because we, we, we, we, we add the leads it to some and when it suits them would become the allies. but what one to remain is to be on the side of the money. thank you so much for your time. we really appreciate it and to the the

motion of the nuclear above seeing those words as the muscles do. if you look on the initial do while significantly post on zillow, while it be almost getting used to put value, what do you do? origin buddy off this to was done the newest frame on the belief systems to good you do what i see these the buses. the little gear limitation says this and uh, tutorial on both of the

the breaking news on our team, the u. s. u. k. take a but you haven't had a new round up on boardman, a spokes person for the who. the group health, i'll shoot you an exclusive interview to the west and campaign wouldn't make his group change quotes. the strikes which have occurred more than once. have had no impact on her decision at all. we still adhere to our firm position on palestine. iraq recalls in baset a to rodney following to ron's metal strikes against the cold valley supply center and tara groups in the right. the and the idea of trying to solve those guys are leaving comfortable to is in the streets.
