international with the latest world news updates good to have you with us. the prime minister of haiti has announced his resignation in mid round prince gang violent square thing, the cower being country, arial, andre, who's currently in the us territory of puerto rico. so he's able to fax to remain in office until a new government is formed. in my my views. yeah. after the council of ministers, tonight's acceptance to put into place a transitional presidential council. the members of the council will be picked after agreement with different sectors of the national life. the government i am running will remove itself immediately after the stablish means of set counsel, as they heard that he wants to stay in position until this interim council is set up. this is an interim council that would be comprised of a room sets and members, and that would then lead the country into the next elections. haiti hasn't had elections since 2016, so they,
12:02 pm
you've seen this been pretty crucial at this point. we've also heard mean, well from the us about more money that it wants to apply in the country. this is to create a multi national security force given this increasingly urgent need. i'm announcing today that the united states department of defense is doubling its approved support for the mission from a $100000000.00 to $200000000.00. and that brings the total us support to $300000000.00 for the separate. and i'm also renouncing additional humanitarian assistance for the people of $8033000000.00 to further support their health and food security. well, the announcement isn't like to get to go down very well with many haitians who once again, possibly feel a bit being held hostage by the international community interfering in internal affairs of the country. hate to use a form of french colony than the u. s. and they did it was that for about 20 years in the early 20th century,
12:03 pm
and it's been accused ever since. so for century being the power behind the politicians in the country wielding its influence. just to give you an example of that wiki, lynx memos mixed back in 2008, 2009 at the us state department at intervened and stopped there being an increase in minimum wage and hate and minimum wage that many people desperately needed at the time, just to give you another sense we've got over here, i'm over here who's saying he's stepping down. the us accused of essentially putting him in power. he was elected. when the former president of the country was short, he had been appointed prime minister a few days before, but there were others who felt that they were suited because they had been elected to be the president of hate. one included the senate president who was told by the us, but he should step down and allow only to take over. and it wasn't just the us. it was other western powers. you are paying countries like fonts and germany who also
12:04 pm
12:05 pm
hey, is this still missing? isn't it? when you look back and coming back to the situation in haiti at the moment, what exactly a locals saying about so we would expect that they would be happy if there is less violence. as a result of this transitional governments coming into place, the head of hopefully elections. but we have already heard from one of haiti's. main. gang bull says, this is jimmy the ball, but you it, she's yeah. who has said that once again. she's unhappy. she says the international community is continuing to essentially, uh, you know, interest in hate. and he says, if it continues down this current boat, then it will plunge the country in to even move chaos. and he is saying that it should be only haitians who decide who runs and what type of government there is in the country. and that seems to be echoed by people in the crime too. when we
12:06 pm
talk about caring home, have even done anything for haiti. all haitians need to work together to see if we can save the country. those countries always go to haiti in a situation where we end up finding each other of the kind of tom cannot do anything for us. it is like when you run from the rain and end up falling in the mud, the only thing i can say is that aerial henry is out forever. he cannot do anything for us anymore. what you're hearing, that is people saying, look, we want to control our own country. we want to control our own destiny. essentially, haitians of fed up with being treated by as if they're a colony of another country. whether that is fronts with about the us or anyone else, they would like to the salt lake that feature marianne a goes to a panama, for cont journalist on the international relations. analysts believes those advocating for intervention in haiti most fast. awesome. so that was what people that really need. the c u. s. and other countries like france and the news,
12:07 pm
i have to decide it's a great troll in as far as the instability and gigi's concepts and not just in case you, we could mention that attaches as well. with such interventions have only left more cares. instead of finding solutions, because some of these interventions i'm not done with the locals in mind, i'm not done with the priorities of the people in those countries in mind. usually the, the interest that pushes them that motivates them. the kind of a counsellor country where there's nothing for them to gain and so full of a us, i think it cannot escape responsibility fully by the history of the ashan. uh, you know, just in terms of the instability this as the initials but you've seen before, even before the destination of given them wasted that happened. that should be close to this country to another, kill us. what does the people pay you to what these types of batch before you come into this interventions? and maybe just, maybe we can have a, a jennings of lasting solutions. not just in case each but in other countries that
12:08 pm
he's seeing some of these western powers for you, the, the costing instability in the name of going you there and intervene. europe is on and get self as a you weapons impose nitty double with french and do as i expose continuing to rise . so the and president, alexander vintage say 0, it's close. is one of the militarization. what is happening now is madness. they all thought the booting would be easily defeated. now they see that this is not so the current trend is toward total militarization and a 5 fold build up in all respects. firms. president, a measure in my call said that western troops and ukraine could not be excluded. he also said that he wanted to maintain strategic ambiguity, also known as bossing, which only actually works if you don't announce right after the boss that you could
12:09 pm
be bluffing. but apparently a menu and not cold, treating the international stage like a local community feed or production and cause playing is in it eyes. their goal was enough to inspire a bunch of other european officials to take the safety officer own miles and fire off some belligerent rhetoric of their own. sonya is the soldiers of nato countries are already in ukraine. and i would like to think the ambassadors of those countries that took such a risk, they know who they are, they are replacing. the president did not say that the russians would advance towards odessa of ok of the way i see it. he's preparing public opinion for friends to intervene in this conflict by telling us. and if the from to moves towards odessa or kid, what are we going to do? that should be no limits to our intervention. this is how he presents things, but we should not play on the fear of the french. the time of peace is over. the post war era is over. we live in new times in the pre war era. for some of our
12:10 pm
brothers, this is no longer even the pre will era, but the period of full scale war and it's most cruel version. we cannot continue to feast on illusions. no one will take away all responsibility for fighting for our security and the future. we ourselves of the best guarantor about security and the unity. we need to turbocharged our defense industrial capacity in the next 5 years . and at the heart of this must be one simple principle in europe must spend more, you must spend, veterans, and europe must spend europe in europe should strive to develop and manufacture the next generation of battle winning operational capabilities. so what do you do when you've devastated your own normal economy for ukraine and have nothing to show for us value? announce that you now sell for that defy as a war time country and attempt to scare up some cash from your tax payers. for the
12:11 pm
transition, sure, work for zalinski, we need to change the paradigm and moving toward economy mode. this also means that the european defense industry must take more risks with our support. so now what we're seeing is european countries wrapping up defense spending. well, the same time saying that they don't really have any cash, just bear for things like social programs or to sufficiently compensate their own farmers for being screwed over by the use free trade policy favoring ukraine's farming industry over europe's own. don't like it. well then, do you really want russian president vladimir putin rolling right up to a left bank freezing cafe in a battle tact because they're talking like that's exactly where he's literally going to be ordering. walked off from the mid day menu. if the european tax stairs don't start wrapping their heads around, the idea that making weapons is now suddenly europe's big priority. so how's that cell job working on the tax payer's? well,
12:12 pm
76 percent of french citizens are against french troops fighting russia and ukraine . that's according to a pull from just a few days ago. within the 50 to 64 year age group. that number was markedly higher at 85 percent against. it's all like, even the french establishment is all in lock step on this either from a french prime minister, dominique de paul, who warren washington about the risks of invading a rock 20 years ago. sounds like he's giving a dad lecture. you said you will play out of it would have 1st been necessary for us to be able to answer 5 questions. 5 risks associated with this escalation, who would be taking this step? so if we were to send troops, send fighters 5 risks. while some officials are sounding right now, like they're hosting a telephone for the european military industrial complex, other c spin off opportunities for all this war talks in other industries like
12:13 pm
bunker construction, there was an urgent need to put the commission to bunker's back into operation. and we need to build a new modern shelters in urban centers. underground car, parks, and subway shaft can certainly be used. we are currently seeing this in key of where people are seeking refuge from russian missiles. we also need to plan for such a scenario in germany, not a bad time to resurrect the bunker industry. actually, with energy costs and interest rates becoming a problem for europeans. maybe everyone can just save some money and, and crowded, move into government funded bunkers and hang out while waiting for pollutants for the types appeal to you. trained to negotiate a peace settlement with russia has been met with fish backlash with the head of nate. so rejecting the coals thanks, increase military support. the key up is the only way to end the conflicts. you can find out more on most sco and key ups was closest to the pipes, comments as one has plenty more opinions and analysis on our website. on
12:14 pm
the more than $200000000.00 in american text pay dollars will be strong next year into trying to maintain us influence in africa . the amount is laid out in biden's requested 2025 budgets for next year to combat chinese and russian influence across the continents. according to the documents of the $2000000000.00 requested by the government to combat china, $220.00 miss in dollars will go to the development of opposing to nivia as a critical investments across town for a kind of a $65000000.00 will be provided to boost staff because digital economy of $25000000.00 will be given to a new funds to cross down on russian o either. so quote, malign act is in the region as well as improving that responsiveness of security forces and promoting democracy. earlier we spoke to nigeria and full my presidential aspect adante golf. but he said that america isn't concerns with us because problems as it proceeds only its own interests and the region. and i think
12:15 pm
it was late in africa. i think the in town with us is for the opportunity and also got that done. i believe. so what is happening now? who was on china? you know, who is it decision also comes from the when to push it was the system that fabled in c shows and yeah, spatial as opposed to the way some places i post on the account that we anticipate your approach. you'll come with your money just to protect your interest in offer cuz it doesn't react on the problem. these are coming with this. you're wanting to fight blue spots and of the having g. you want to be the provide, listen to the platform to do also your your program to find out because they have the site working partnership with or shot chain. i think the who is the best
12:16 pm
one to be starting to ship it out for condition. come on, just close it out for comes about what are the needs for the coastal africans. i will be just problem is infrastructure one secuity. i'm introduced to these to me for our young people job creation and boost our lives issue. not some. and you want to because we're, you almost somebody to help me find the body and soul dropped to distribute communities. i think i think a full, a boeing employee who blew the whistle about safety concerns over the companies that claims as being phones dead. throwing up on that report to the guy to be self inflicted wounds just days off, the giving testimony and a major lawsuit against the company onto correspondence don't hold cause they gave us details of the case study of the circumstances surrounding the death of his whistle blower john barnett are quite strain. she was found dead in his truck just shortly after he was supposed to attend an important interview. connected to the
12:17 pm
law suit, he filed against the following company. the coroner said that he died as a result of a self inflicted wounds. even though in days prior, he was actively collecting evidence to bring to the court. because according to barnett, the boeing company has been pressuring its workers into integrating a defective parts into its aircraft. let's take a listen. i was in charge was pushing back dfcs to our suppliers and what the amount was i'd say to a group of inspectors and actually go to the supplier and inspector product before they sent it in. well, i'd take an insane before inspectors. spirit arrows systems to inspect the 41 section before they send its charles. and we found $300.00 defects. some of them were significant, new to the engineering of intervention. when i return to charleston, my senior managers only weird found so many defects and he was going to take the next troops southern extra or you went on because of 2 of my inspectors. and when
12:18 pm
they got back, they were given accolades, vonage line and 50 dfcs. so old that a specter side has a despair really clean up director squared. don't sound right. she was mad. she said, no, said the 2 inspectors were given 2 hours to inspect the whole $41.00 section that we picked up there on. this all comes after a number of recent dangerous technical failures associated with boeing planes on sunday. 50 people were injured during a mid flight technical emergency aboard a boeing triple 7 headed to brazil, a friday saw a boeing, a 737 max, a plane run right off the runway in houston, texas. and on monday dozens of people were injured. as a result of an accident on another, boeing $737.00 plane again, due to technical problems. and this is just to name a few of many actual technical emergencies that happened to associating associated with boeing plains. just last week. there were others connected to tyre falling off
12:19 pm
the plane and the engine caught on fire and even a failure of the planes control system. and it's even lead at least one travel a search engine, kayak, to start helping its users avoid boeing planes altogether. cool. yeah. makes it easy for consent travelers to avoid 737 max flights. we've increased the prominence of the max fuel to on site airlines, the open substitute equipment. so travelers should double check before departure. on top of that, the new york times recently published an article showing that boeing's 737 max plane had failed. 33 audits conducted by the federal aviation administration. apparently, there were dozens of problems with the production process, but this isn't actually the 1st time that boeing's production line has received negative attention back in 2014 out, 0, conducted its own independent investigation into the matter. and it found that a worker is that boeing's production plants have serious concerns about the safety
12:20 pm
of these planes. the 15 work is almost randomly 10, so they would not slide on the dreamliner. the 1st part, boeing denies any wrong doing, but with this mountain of problems associated with its aircraft and the untimely death of this key whistle blower. there's no doubt the boeing company has a lot of explaining to do while joining me now in the studio is a sale. the launch radiation expert and you have political analysts hopefully to shed some more light on this situation. many thanks to come in, it's always nice to see it was a pleasure. so this is so, but in news, as the death of this uh, boeing whistle blower, john bonnet over the weekend is also going to raise some eyebrows given the timing
12:21 pm
. well, can you tell us about the ongoing lawsuit against the boeing company when it comes to safety concerns raised by not just missed a bonus, but a number of wistful bluffs? it's true that there are a lot of whistle blowers and deviation industry, which is strange is that john barnett was going through the 3rd days of his edition on the $21.00 program, which is the american program. but it's supposed to cover the american whistle blowers on the, on the f, e, as in industry in the us. now, it's not the secret, the old manufacturers, they have problems. the problem is that we hear too much about boeing's, actually the 737 max was a be problem still have flows. it's do forbidden to fly in russian federation for example. and if you listen to the news, you can hear about it almost every weeks. the 787, it's also the same thing and it's been brought to lights. it's been brought to
12:22 pm
daylights also. but in boeing factory, the manufacturer, they have a process is that not that i'm not done correctly. and they just covered some flows in the design of the problem by itself that would require a lot of maintenance and correction system. so it's, it's linked also the money because any ition is money. and if you have to run the complete seat of one model to restore the system and correct the flows and the l, and i'm not going to be able to use them. so for boeing and the in regard to the competition between boeing and abas, it's a, it's a huge, huge problem. so when it comes to the accusations being made by the end isn't even age ation experts. do you think that it's highly likely to be legitimate? yes, it is legitimate to of course it is legitimate and reason wiggs. we've witnessed several cases of the technical malfunction. we were just talking about that video where we see the types of forwarding from the, the play and when it's mid
12:23 pm
a. and what do you make up the response in measures taken by the company? and they often us, well, as i explained, one has to make the difference between the design of an aircraft, which is the responsibility of the manufacturer. boeing and then the maintenance that is applied by the comp, by a, by the outline that is using that aircraft. so basically when you see an aircraft taking off and when you see that will fully know if the crap you cannot say all of that's the fault of boeing. but of using the maybe not related to a design problem that might be much more much more related to a maintenance problem before to get you covered prizes. so we have seen the flow is in manufacturers into us after the coveted cries, as a lot of people have been laid over and those qualified people, they found a job in different areas or somewhere else or different manufacturer or different
12:24 pm
airlines. and now since the covered prize as it is finished, the flying program in the us just thought it to be the same as it was before. and they, they have maintenance problem because they need people to do those maintenance and they need qualified people. and that's the problem, i mean, you cannot be qualified like this takes time. um. so the only thing we can hope is that the boeing will find a solution for this, but make no mistakes. it's not on the boeing. i mean, we hear about boeing because actually it's boeing. but at this we have some problems. also, we haven't been able to recover some of those problems. boeing as promptly, it's much more complicated. but like you said, we, we, we have boeing cause that's probably the most highly used and take some as well known company when it comes to aviation. it's an aviation dot dying off to war, but these things are in wide usage around the world. so how quite of an impasse
12:25 pm
could these continuing technical problems have on travel around the world? just say i could either have an impact of traveling that some people could be fuel, could be pure and buying on those aircraft. maybe maybe not one, even those. uh but um are you know, nature, it doesn't light, it's empty space. it will be feels by something else anyway. um, but what you said is right. boeing is of giants in the industry like habits is a giant in the, in the, in the industry. but the competition between those 2 manufacturers is sonya which, but sometimes you have security flows in the manufacturing process. i think an example for a very quick example. the 737, max and the bus at 320 neil, when others decided to solve the meal program. then boeing, i had to make
12:26 pm
a choice between using an old aircraft like the 737, and redesign something to be competitive in regard to what was doing add those. or they had to the other choice they have is to say, no, we're going to designed a new aircraft brand new aircraft. and then in research and development, it's going to cost a lot of money. it's going to cost a lot of time. and if they have chosen this path, then they would definitely have lost the competition in regard to what abas was doing. so decided to update an old aircraft to put some new engines that are bigger, that we require a modification on the frame for ira dynamical problems. and computer system and so on. and what we've seen also is that the more we're going into time, the more will using computerized aircraft. mm hm. uh and who says computer
12:27 pm
means program. right? and for example, if you take the electric system, which is on the how this, you have not to me, my total law, but you have also entail. and those system are programmed into different languages to have complete redundancy and different things. it's 787, for the guidance mode, you'll them to fine a model, the 3 computers, the old program, the same way. and what happened the last time between sydney and opens is directly related to this. and that's a problem that is nonsense 2016. and that it should be, that's another fluid that should have been corrected. the system on the 737 max, which is called the m cast, was badly programmed, badly designed, and the if a gave to boeing the, the hand on the certification process, which makes bullying becoming judge and party cannot work as the means
12:28 pm
that the boeing 737 max is one that comes up alone, isn't it? when it comes to complaints and criticisms, and a lot of, and we, we know whistle blowers coming forward with that stories. now a lot of people might be reading these stories and say, well, i'm not going to use that particular model of play. do you think that it's um, just having these stories out that will have an impact on the reputation of borrowing could be at least a as a pilot myself, i'm sorry to say this, but i as a paid up myself, i don't fly on the max. i don't want to, or is he that's enough to make me the same? so i mean, if, if it, to be very honest, yes, if i can avoid, of course, because i love the flow is because the flow is because of the, because of the training and because of a, it's not on the, the flows, but they do every aircraft as flows, every single aircraft, we have flows at the beginning of the 320. that's not the point,
12:29 pm
but we correct them. right normally as a pilot or as a manufacturer, we should learn from our mistake and move forward, right? it's, it's called pro active. i have some cold, some can call this we activity, but we called also call this pro activity. what should be done not to be in this situation. that's proactivity reactivity, is that oh we have that problem. what should we do to correct that problem, right? um, but the thing is that unfortunately everything is linked to it is linked to money, profit and benefit and it will always be more expensive to run a complete fleet of aircraft to correct the problem then to base i mean daily peace to the family of the last one in an act craft accident, especially in boeing, wouldn't what it would want to protect its reputation that has enough money to pull all these 737 max is that have been widely criticized and you know,
12:30 pm
safe space it. yes, that's if i am not the head of budding, but this is what i would do to break the problem. i personally, but i'm not ahead and they will setting up the don't ask me what i would do. so it's yes, this is exactly what you would be done, correct? the problem and project your reputation. you know, sometimes accepting that you have a problem is or really finding a solution to it. we have a problem in the, in the design. we correct the design, can we corrected these on? yes, no. what can we do for that problem? yes, this is what should be done. exactly. this is what you'll be done. but the problem is that some of those problems have been hidden. and we discovered this just because we haven't, we solve lower and those we solve lower, i mean you just disappear. so what is the message.
