girls are the main groups in package to by poverty as well as climate change into interest they are the main victims of gender based violence or discrimination a phenomenon which sought to stop them from moving freely as well as from. enjoying the freedom to decide what they do with their bodies it is time to put an end to all of this. it is time. to start making women victims of love but instead giving them their due place which is one of leaders. it is time to guarantee of across the board access to education health employment economic and political decision making combating all forms of violence against women and. france intends to put forward with interested governments or rather to propose
1:34 am
a coalition for the adoption of new walls laws on gender equality and going on fifty percent of our aid to development will be dedicated to projects which seek to reduce gender inequality. this is also a time to relaunch mobilization in inequalities in health in twenty nineteen we will be hosting a conference on the global fund for combating hiv aids tuberculosis and polio. where initiating a drive against counterfeit medications and intend to take action against. sweeping pandemics here i call on each and every one of you to stand with us. finally. you go we should under stand the urgency of combat of combating environmental inequality. it is not acceptable for forty five
1:35 am
percent of greenhouse gas emissions to be produced by the ten richest countries of the planet. is not effective as is the case for solar energy that countries with the greatest capacity and greatest need be the very countries with least access to adaptive technologies. it's not sustainable for a one hundred million home to be condemned between now and twenty thirty to live in abject poverty should we not achieve achieve our goals in combating climate change or global warming. when this two year is an area for global mobilization some countries suffer more than others. we should stand shoulder to shoulder with down home. we must all
1:36 am
understand the disasters experienced by people always and even our very children the. carers agreement has stayed intact and that is because we have decided to stay unified in spite of the us is decision to withdraw. this is power and this is the way that we overcome the challenges we've been told that there are solutions but financing is lacking so let's find it. let's think out of the box that's what we did last year in paris with so many of you during the one planet summit with specific commitments and results already on the way that's what we did in the beginning of the year in delhi with the international solar alliance as that is what we will be doing tomorrow in new york with the session the second one planet summit. people say it's too late that we won't meet our goals well then let's hurry up let's adopt together
1:37 am
the rules replication of the paris agreement at cope up twenty four in december let's implement the protocol against the. gas. which could make global temperature drop by one percent by twenty twenty or one degree or other by twenty twenty let us set the goal of concluding in twenty twenty a global compact for the environment which is ambitious and bold. what now about the conference in twenty twenty there there have to be concrete steps taken and. let us also be clear and consistent. there is certainly an urgent situation so let's for an example stop signing trade agreements with those who don't comply with the paris agreement let's have that our trade agreements take on board our environmental obligations. let us
1:38 am
mobilize the. sovereign funds as well as others so as to tackle this climate challenge. france continues with all interested parties to spearhead this global corp this global fight against climate change in all the g seven we will be working to see the paris obligations going to increase on all should someone be against we shall nonetheless press ahead with your new formats is new for me because the g seven must remain a group which is firmly committed to democracy a unified one but one which should also lead to new coalitions to allow for a reforging of the global collective system let us and gauge a new forms of cooperation to make strides forward to take decisions
1:39 am
it is small but together that we can effectively push back against all of these inequalities which have eroded our society's mistrust. isolationism. are fueled by such actions all of these inequalities that we've let fester and our collective inability to effectively find solutions or. no single one of us can effectively combat inequalities as just as i described if this individual has to act alone on your own for. that case there would only be two solutions number one. always take the lowest standards and just stick to the status quo and that's what we've done for ten years of trade war fine lesson worker
1:40 am
benefits for an example. always lowering the bar where does that go simply in trenches inequality do so in our societies and that's what we're seeing now the other solution would be would be pointing the finger at the rules well the rules don't work so let's make our own let's close the doors and isolationism protectionism of people ladies and gentlemen that leads to only one thing heightened tensions it surely doesn't tackle the inequalities i've spoken of no i think it is time to establish collective mechanism and one for working together. in every one of our countries to tackle inequalities to assess but also to poor best practices so i'm proposing that international institutions united nations but also the o.e.c.d.
1:41 am
sort of support us in the setting up of this mechanism which should be driven by the g seven to triumph over inequality. because it's the method that has to change first review the rules. in the area of trade and business as well as the social sphere instead of working towards protecting national protectionism we should work together to revise the w.t. overlords we should see how the w t o kind of better address conflict to put forth rules to deal with anti trust the rest respect of the intellectual property and the transfer transfer or transfer of technology to put everyone on an equal footing this year the g. twenty in argentina should produce a credible roadmap for the reforging of the deputy. and this is also what we intend to do in the social sphere. next year during the hundred year anniversary of the
1:42 am
i l o we also need. to reforged the very modes of action. such that those who've been left behind come on board those who aren't here today. the great non-state actors who are changing the world but i do are conspicuously absent in the drive against inequality. for an example the stakeholders in the digital field in i mean those also come batting various forms of. this field in information technology it's time to find new modes of functioning for this cooperation as well as engaging in dialogue with those from the private sector. and internet heavyweights then africa must be given
1:43 am
a central and leading role in this newly formed international order it is not just on this continent but. rather it is on this continent that we will either win or lose in the pushback against inequality. this drive must be done with the african continent because this is where we see the strongest force of regional unions. it is where we've understood that only together we can tackle the challenges before them before us in alliance with africa the friend chairmanship of the jews seven will be looking at all of these issues but together if you see i believe that in the face of these divisions and challenges we must really write. the code of conduct so as to best come back to combat current inequalities. it is the duty of france as well as all of its european partners
1:44 am
including the e.u. to. being in the frontlines of this combat to build a new world order with a human face that knows no protectionism isolationism but is entirely realistic and at the same time. building as a mediator. the new rules of the new global order. ladies and gentleman at a time where our. collective system is falling apart sadly it is most in demand. for that reason we do so we so support those working for peace and humanity unesco it's the conscience if you like of the united nations the human rights council the international criminal court and watch. to and
1:45 am
we continue to contribute as i remind you here no idea at the end of the day and is allowing hundreds of thousands of children to go to school and that's it. we intend to do that and there are broadening of the security council in the two member categories to ensure that the composition reflect on current. balances and that the council remain a place of cooperation and rather rather than obstructionism before we will ensure that by the end of the year the general assembly. two thirds of its membership. will be able to support the limitation of the veto right in case of a mass atrocities we shall defend international humanitarian law in support of those risking their lives to is to see assist civilians on the ground by negotiating. in each and every case humanitarian access
1:46 am
with on them and during the anniversary of the one nine hundred forty eight declaration we were reminded that human rights are not a cultural fact negotiable values you know they are fundamental values in trying to an international treaties as committed to freely by this very assembly we recall that they yearn of universe ality has come and had a ball with the sovereignty of peoples and is indeed but the only way to preserve. and ensure the people's enjoyment of their fundamental rights france shall remain there to ensure that the world not forget that nationalism. always. leads. to defeat and that if courage is lacking i mean the defense of fundamental principles in turn international order
1:47 am
becomes fragile and this can lead as we've seen already twice to global war and. we saw that with our very own eyes. on before eleven november twenty eighth to form an heiress will be a time for a melding of the minds to find that encourage again to find what unites us here it's to be an opportunity. to. renu. our firm commitment to the preservation of future generations from the scourge of war. when you it is my intention to take with other interested parties possible new responsibilities over the course of the forum. we should identify the actual ways and means to achieve lasting
1:48 am
peace friends i know you may be tired of multilateralism i also know. that the world is flooded with information and one becomes indifferent it all starts to look like a big show. it all starts to look likely even the worst things can become trendy. and it becomes difficult to extricate the cause from the common. cause from the effect. well this is not a matter of being trendy ladies and gentlemen. for those who brought us here we have a duty as you know we must never forget that genocide which led to you being here today. very thinly but if you figure the very genocides
1:49 am
which are even a few altered by certain divisions that i spoke of earlier and indeed the erosion of the global order which i spoke of earlier all of this happens because we turn our head we turn our heads and we remain complacent but that is not what i intend to do no that is because i come from a country which is yes we've made a lot of mistakes my country has made a lot of mistakes but it is a country which at every turn of its history and in international history has brought example of that very principle of universal ety and so please don't get used to it don't become indifferent indifferent do not accept the erosion of multilateral multi-lateralism don't exist don't accept our history unraveling i'm not getting. used to this and i'm not turning my head to it. our
1:50 am
children are watching let us address the crises let us work together to combat all of these equalities but let us do this on a human level and mindful of the principles guided by our history history and the principle of universal universality and universalism that is my commitment to you and i count on you can thank thank. me and i'm. sending a version of the quarters for emanuel mark on the french president a lengthy speech that was forty five going on for fifty minutes. but he was quite
1:51 am
fired up towards the end talking about building a new world order with a human face and saying we should not accept don't accept our history unraveling as how he described it james both political sorry diplomatic editor in new york with us listening to that is the same as a long speech james and he went through a lot of stuff but i think the overriding thing i got from it and i'd like you to talk about this is the complete contrast to the earlier speech we heard from the u.s. president he talks about international regional alliances multifaceted global mobilization it is the polar opposite. it was such an impassioned speech particularly at the end and you're right it was interesting to note earlier on when president trump arrived at the u.n. he spoke to reporters briefly went up the escalator and the first other world leader he met was emmanuel mccraw they hugged each other warmly these two men get on but listen to that speech and they don't agree on almost anything they have
1:52 am
a completely different vision of the way the world should work you heard the vision that of a manual mccraw let me just remind you that president trump says we need lots of strong countries and national sovereignty everyone getting stronger and acting in their own interest well that is not the way that the french president sees it he said there is a crisis in the entire international system he said it's not a passing moment he says he does not believe in the law of the strongest and he said the system the situation now is like the one nine hundred twenty s. and thirty's with the league of nations that was the pre-disaster to the united nations that was founded by will woodrow wilson the u.s. president but the u.s. congress never let the u.s. actually join it and it was unable to act in the days before world war two and we
1:53 am
had world war two he said the u.n. is now like that facing a situation where as a symbol of powerlessness and he said they we really need to change he says that radical ideas may be trendy at the moment and multilateralism isn't trendy but multilateralism is the only way to avoid genocide he said it was genocide at the end of world war two that created the united nations and that's why he was same passion in the end saying what was at stake here a really very strong speech by the french president at one point when he talked about the united nations he listed important things as you now. sco the international criminal court the human rights council and the part of the un that deals with the palestinians. interesting those are all bits that the u.s. doesn't like and has pulled out of and he named them all in this speech also worth telling you he was at one point he said who's to blame for all of this for the
1:54 am
problems of the crisis in the system and he says they are present today they've already taken the floor and then he added they are us i think including himself but that was a pretty clear reference to president romney that's point isn't it james just more broadly i'm just looking at the notes i've scrolled here one of the first things i saw was saying it's time to take a fresh look at today's world and then towards the end he says we need to build a new world order with a human face can you sort of sum up what he's saying there because it's it's it's very big picture. it's a very big picture and he is aware that there are these trends of populism and nationalism and there's a change in the media it's not about traditional gate keepers of the media telling people the news yes. people who know about things watch channels like this one al-jazeera where we can go through all the details but a lot of people don't get their news from curated channels like this one anymore
1:55 am
they get it from social media from people putting out things that look interesting even if they're just a wild rumor so he he made that point i think that the world is a different place and they have to find a way to make the multilateral system that has kept the world from world war for more than seventy years now to make that fit for purpose worth also telling you kemal another thing that i have where i see a clash coming with president trump president trump speech referred to the u.n. funding and saying perhaps we should reconsider the way we from the u.n. and made the point on international aid that the u.s. will reconsider where it gives its international aid because the u.s. doesn't get in anything in aid will of course the u.s. doesn't get in i think it's the richest country in the world president macro has a very different vision he says he's increasing france's overseas aid by forty percent to one billion euro and here's where i see the clash comey he says he's
1:56 am
going to make this the centerpiece of the g. seven for the next year because in twenty nineteen he is going to head that g seven body of the those powerful seven nations of course president trump every year goes to the g. seven summit if it's all are going to be about increasing aid and tackling poverty big clash coming up james bays is out diplomat again is here at the u.n. general assembly thank you james tremendous talking to you and getting your insight there. well in the down time times it's been a busy man but he has put together a report for us on what happened a little bit earlier yeah and that was of course the speech from u.s. president. president trump second speech to the one hundred ninety three member countries of the united nations started with a bold claim and it was met with gospel and astonishment today i stand before the united nations general assembly to share the extraordinary progress we've made
1:57 am
in less than two years my administration has accomplished more than almost any administration in the history of our country. america is so true. i didn't expect that reaction but that's how. this was a speech that followed his america first theme he said the world would work best with strong nations working in their own national interest raising the question of whether the u.s. will now give up its moral leadership on issues like human rights america will always choose independence and cooperation over global governance control and domination i honor the right of every nation in this room to pursue its own customs beliefs and traditions the united states will not tell you how to live or
1:58 am
work or worship on north korea his tone was very different from a year ago he thanked kim jong un for his courage in meeting him iran was though once again targeted for condemnation iran's leaders so k.-s. death and destruction. they do not respect their neighbors or borders or the sovereign rights of nations instead iran's leaders plunder the nation's resources. to enrich themselves and to spread mayhem across the middle east and far beyond that was perhaps to an olive branch though to the iranian president has signed rouhani in a tweet trump said i'm sure he's an absolutely lovely man and when he arrived at
1:59 am
the u.n. he added this we look forward to having a great relationship with iran but what happens now trumps speech was markedly different from that of the u.n. secretary general antonio good terrorists he stressed the need to return to an international rules based order the u.n. will also be worried that the trumpet ministration is again talking about reassessing the amounts it gives in international aid and the money it pays to fund the united nations and the us so time space reporting from the general assembly vat and tara she saw him open the session we had donald trump and immediately after donald trump maybe five minutes later it was the turn of turkey's president reach up type and. valar cause you can imagine it's very easy to create chaos but it's difficult to really establish order and today unfortunately some countries are persistently trying to create chaos there's no
2:00 am
bigger danger than a world order that has lost mercy conscience truth and hope and that is the danger that we're facing now let's check in with hashem for a bit of analysis on this he started quite big picture hashem talking about this idea of chaos and a lack of mercy in the world and then focus more on turkish issues that mean syria and a really a call for help i think he said we expect more support. and did come out. a lot of play of basically said that his country has to bear the burden of the influx of more than three and a half a million syrian refugees into the country and that the country of turkey has been looking after those refugees provided to them with the basic services and that despite reassurances from the engine.
