4:33 pm
and your tweets you're offering free, decide these old policies towards the gather strip. they again, for see on the stand of. so i've asked god concerning this issue. now, what do you think we should expect the conflict, the and on when we, when are we going to see the 1st results all the area? i see j meeting. well, we would like to see the consumer end as soon as possible. we would live to see is royal, comply with the provisional measures that have been ordered by the court. that is why was going back to the courts to us for this threatening off of those orders. um, so that we prevent what is now imagine as a segment crisis with a lot of people of projected to die from starvation. we would live to see the association of hostilities we would live to see the affinity
4:34 pm
of, of humanitarian career, those to those who i need off of, of humanitarian aid. that is why we would always as a country, and this is something president, remo 4, so we'll continue to chat with you want to use every legal means of instrument to ensure that we see an end to the genocide that's currently taking place in guys that we see and, and to the brutal punishment and the team of, of people who are seeking aid like this. so recently in russia now the us has continued to support these role since the beginning of the conflict is likely to change the us of africa relations. given that your country opposes us, box is ready actions. we have a very strategic political and trades relationship with the united states. within
4:35 pm
the context of that close political then trades relationship. they easing appreciation that we defy. on the vin number of issues, one of them is the issue concerning the palestinians as, as you particularly aged, we in engagement and in discuss ongoing discussions, ways of various counterparts within the united states. and we will continue to do so. um, the teachings that the president boston really fast to a former president, nelson mandela, and those that spend coverage, ongoing dialogue and engagement and windows that you disagree with the most. and so within the context of that political and trade partnership with the united states, we will continue to voice our displeasure and our discomfort,
4:36 pm
ways and the stage of this role and this behavior to us to furnish the needs and to do so in a constructive manner. in a robust manner within the confines of the partnership and the trades relationship that we have with united states. now, how do you assess the media coverage? all the conflict in the gaza strip? what are your main problems that you see if you to see any, because it seems that the narrative that is in for what i'm seeing on the play as outside of the mid least start as we can see. but let me hear your view on this. as well, you, you do have obviously a quite a concentration of focus for boston media globally with respect to developments in the middle east, particularly what has been happening. and guys that you do have some international
4:37 pm
media outlets, particularly worse than outlets that has chosen to present had to present a sort of some more school is riley perspective with the coverage and you both so it has lows to teach you that the media houses that originated from parts of the middle east and other parts of the world that has chosen to be balanced in the coverage as well as for trail also that conflicts. and that has allowed people around the world to then have the ability to inform the views and to inform their starts with respect to what is happening on the ground in, in, in further study, we noticed that when we presented our arguments, is that the 1st application that we made to the international court of justice.
4:38 pm
some of the most prominent global, most indeed outlets chose not to provide coverage and live coverage falls that presentation to, to the court. and we observed that the next day when these well presented, it's arguments and they will have quoted low to all of coverage if you lot. and so those are sort of most of biases that people say at the end of the day, each media house as a, his own brides and longitude to detect. and it's a total of decisions and to 10 main was perspectives for trade. decision you observed that. and the kind of that is given to the finest in in story, particularly 5 worsted media houses, is not to say
4:39 pm
a treatment that you see elsewhere. where these, where the, these past conflicts as a, as a media houses referred to better, for example, on the coverage that they provided. related to some incidents that are less just taking place in guys and, and as the results also goes biased. so we encourage you to go to the lights of the functions and add when to, to add, reflect the situation as it is on the ground, disturbing and painful as it is. we still have those cottages, generalist men and women of the use room that are committed in relating the truth and in the name, the facts as they are with respect to what is had a ride that is still talking get by the media because this is really very critical
4:40 pm
to understanding what the opinion and understanding what the issues really on the spot of what we had been trying to lay back for the well to see when in now coverage archie coverage. all of this issues wall to wall, like like you say about still talking about the media. why in the old opinion are a number of advocate in crisis. which of most of that consequences done the ukrainian one ignored by the west and media, while the ukrainian prizes is on the fund pages. now the, there are issues and so down the issues in somalia, the central african republic, the comb go even the ones that molly and so one how does the advocate in public react to such west and disregard as well? so for the longest time um within media outlets has a search to portray the after 10 content and in
4:41 pm
a negative and kind of stereotypical manner. when the menus falls over t hung uh, repairs as well as general perceptions of the inability to gather and effectively portrayed as, as, as the sort of override in defining. so you choose, falls, falls north of the african funding assessment typical by period of time number o, as in a math, africans has thoughts to push backs of games that portrayal of all supposed to come to an end add saw to tentative age. and a lot of positive features as well as developments that are taking place on the, on the african continent. and we've also observed that the coverage that we've seen in some of the worst and media houses that next the
4:42 pm
appreciation of the complexity is on the ground. and, and also in those complexities, you'll find behind or the close of some of the countries and the challenges that, that we face on the continent. i guess this is going to be an ongoing task. um and it's ongoing challenge that as africans we will continuously confront and work on to change them. and then we try to come to an end is portrayed where these conflicts and always ensure that that conflict is presented in a box man. so that both sides to that, the conflicts presented, but also that days, appreciation of the complexity and the issues behind that country. and so now that the countries on the continent that are being remarkably well,
4:43 pm
some of those countries have come out of a history of conflict. and, and they pulled themselves out of that history. and they led, if you like, the development of the own people and that has an image that has an impact on regional communities across across the continent. and we would like to see more of that for trail of the african continent as a growing, advancing continental continental, that increasingly has embraced democracy and democratic principles. a content and says over time has shown a strong ability to govern itself and able to add resolve as phone issues. that's that kind of for training. we would like to see both of our content and, and what is encouraging is the emergence of various online platforms. that is
4:44 pm
allowed people to, to raise the own stories that is allowed 2 people to read for themselves and the phone communities in the various sections where they operate and, and that's likely advance to the imagines of the various digital and on demand channels that allows people to be able to share the content from the hospitals to the neighborhoods in to the countries as old. and so that has created a diversity of, of the content that can be consumed above the content that is a lot more positive than what to see right now today we, we, we see how in the countries of africa as to how redone the number of western media outlets are being shut down, which according to local authorities spread towers propaganda. now, where should we look for the line between freedom of speech and protective national
4:45 pm
security? yeah, it's a um, it's a very um, um, cheap abundance to, to mentee, but it's one that's less than guided by each country is constitutional principles. i guess if i just sort of slides on my own country side africa, the constitution guarantees of freedom of expression that and sees the media and as well as access to, to information. we have a very robust and very engaging and media. so to web, from the president to officials to business need is no, it is a problem, is about a new formal school to needs all producing for, for that matter. and that's something that we accept to be part of our democracy to
4:46 pm
be pods false while consist no democracy or democratic features issue large. and that's something that we appreciate as part of a growing and evolving democracy. somebody, the countries will say differently based on, you know, they've kind of constitutional guidelines that they have. and basically generally up to standards will say, to have a society that's bolted that can engage openly. that can and gauge boyd criticism as much as it engages where it's positive issues that reflects the performance of government and that reflects the leadership off of government. all right, you spoke earlier about the way west and media covers the african continent and how, assuming by us this is always waved into the story lines and all of that. but
4:47 pm
basically, if, if the story has to change as to the new rules of engagement, what do you say needs to be done for that to change as well? we have to continue um, advocating full full furnace. we have to continue pushing the boundaries with respect to how we, as africans reflected in various global platforms, we have to continue adding the voice with respect to positive developments that we're seeing on our continent. and we have to continue celebrating that humans and the advisements that we're witnessing across the continent. we cannot allow us else to this false, to forwarded lined into a narrative that does not aid uh or support or enable
4:48 pm
the attainment of a us be racially, just continental in individual countries across the continent. for example, um you have the reset and adoption of the after the free trade agreement, which is going to be a major post to a number of after 10, including them. is that outrage of signatures uh to the past to that's a very positive development. it bogus wells for us, we can, you can amazed for domestic businesses just as it is positive for, for direct investments as well as international investors that are going to have different types of profile content. and that's something we have to continuously talk about for dean was to celebrate. and something that we have a very strong conviction that it will deliver the envisage economic benefits to millions and hundreds of millions of people and young people in the continental.
4:49 pm
and it will leads to the industrialization of content. and so those kinds of developments i was talking about over and over and over and over again. and what time we will be able to, to change those negative perceptions about our continents as we continue to subsets to build resilient and sustainable equipment. all right, we're talking about mutually productive, all beneficial, a alliances, to what extent of african news outlets involved in cooperation with russia and media on some of this issues. that means so much to south africa and this of africans as well. generally they the levels of cooperation across the board, not just with russian media. they, they levels of cooperation with chinese media, for example, with the russian media. and the uh, engagement is when some media houses in, in, in the middle east,
4:50 pm
my clinics in the media can give you more details than i'm able to gauge. but that is part and paso, for what we call cultural exchanges, people to people's lives changes, as well as institutional changes that we encourage through the execution of foreign policy where we seek to build strong, the bones weighs our global trade and political partners. and it's something that we will continue to to encourage it, offers opportunities for skills, acquisitions, and offers. it offers opportunities for strategic partnerships, as well as various commercial fraternities that include about the accessible it'll open up as a result of those exchanges. and we'll continue to encourage those exchanges. all
4:51 pm
right, now, recently, many african media outlets have been trying to focus on the war with a sedan which has been forgotten in the western media. how do you assess the interest. busy of the african public in topics that are not raised in the west. the media, the fight against new colonialism, for instance, the position of apply made the agenda by the west, as well as coverage of local african conflicts. and he, many to and prizes a well, we have a own media houses and enough that, uh we, we do loves as a note how was that media houses also in the flags or issues and also and projects as there is developments that take place in content and, but it's equally important for me to stress that we have our own home grown media companies that cause the continental to extensively. the platforms like radio for example, still remain very popular. and they still reach
4:52 pm
a lot of people in edwards centers in rural areas. and so we're not always concerned about how west and media houses that are flags paso project asked, because we do have our own channels, where we are able to exchange information, provide information, consume information, and be able to share perspective and views. and so we've very much in touch with the continent and we're not necessarily dependent on west and media houses to tell us about assets. we know a story, we knew ourselves and in the conflicts that to you last friends and not all know interested in the past. following at those conflicts, but they kind of relaxed. so that's the case involved in, in supporting dialed in supporting for measures that can be puts in place to
4:53 pm
ensure that those constrains come to an end. recently present from a closer match, which one of the leading parties in incidental, which is the section may change and they'll be future and spread the engagements that, that, that he will have with various little players. add to that conflict, as you will know. so that's we could, is quite involved in, in bed pursuing a peaceful and to the consumer to the dfcs. we are saved in know that most of the big where was contributed at soups to the side. that 1st quote in the dfcs engine, mozambique. so for me, so that's a good perspective. we quite engage with the quote. and so what western media houses say or not say it is not a major concern to us. what is important to us is that you are able as
4:54 pm
a continent to pull mormillo correlative means and results is to and show that we assist will cease the country, isn't brother, countries with processes and other enabled meant to come out of those devastating countries. so that we can save lives so that we can develop economies and we can advance as a clinton all right. shared with us here, does the south africa prohibit some media outlets and, and besides that, how do you assess the policy of the, you and the united states with the band, international media like archie and all the rest of the media outlets. how does that fit with the west? suppose a desire to protect freedom of speech? what's your assessment as well? so i sort of design as a consistent or principle this fits in the constitution and it's embedded in the constitution. and that will go as far as saying it's even embedded in uh, so side,
4:55 pm
so dna and so, so that's it. so we're not a band. and the media house, it would be a gauge the prescript both the constitution to do so. and so that's the kind of practice that we do not engage in the it is unfortunate that some countries in the region of blogs have decided to do that. obviously, if is that we will always be open to engaging in with those that are critical to us, to engaging in with those with disagree with. and that is a fundamental principle that informs our constitutional democracy. and so we, we find it unfortunate to that's the media outlets that up and in some instances and in some other parts of the world just as was find it quite important to see general is being killed in the manner that they've been killed in this conflict and
4:56 pm
gaza to see the man of the gentlest. i intimidated them, they prevented to do the work. and that's because that's something that close gains um upgrade as a nation and goes up gaines, old constitutional principles, as i've said with believe in been ongoing engagement and died of it with those that disagree with us. and even with those that are critical of cases and, and so the banning of the media house does not contribute to does not contribute to the wide understanding of issues. it does not provide for diverse said to voice is on, but a sheet or matches and, and it's limited in terms of the perspectives that, that i should episode of the lease is bad. and the media anywhere in the world needs to be allowed to both are age to express itself as freely as
4:57 pm
possible, so as to allow that diverse search of views and, and to afford people as much choice as possible to a wide array of information. all right, now, how do you assess the 5 best some provide as in south africa had stop showing the r t news channel, for instance. well, the reason has to do with the, you know, commercial interest and, and how and those commercial interest tie do with interest outside of philadelphia care. and as well as a shareholder dynamics that, that could be, that could bid place. as i said, it is unfortunate that for example, your child is no longer available, all 18 by 10,
4:58 pm
and a. so that's a good company that, that carried a huge, i know we would have said that you tell me it was still available. so that in the public has that diverse sets of voices and, and then the day best besides falls content that they can choose. it is rather unfortunate that that's been the past, but we also understand that they may have been as um, as a commercial interest that it played. that is put price uh and of let's to, to, to that decision the, the, [000:00:00;00]
4:59 pm
