9:00 pm
people now ask for justice no one is going to do it instead of them and i can rest satisfied only when justice is served for all these hundred thousand women and those a million victims thank you but to me i'm. lou this is kelly magnum are from everybody and my question is for an audience. i was struck in your book by the fact that they will look using propaganda to advertise the fact that they could rape women as as a way of. getting new recruits and i wondered. how do you think behaviors need to change in the world for people who not to be attracted by that sort of propaganda and who say if you so how do you know whether or not you find it difficult to trust men after this experience.
9:01 pm
never heard of you look up how did you know this is. what they are doing at isis isis was a very public and a lot they're doing we are here to. deal with this infidel people we don't need them anymore we need to kill kill all the men. and day with selling. and violating right paying these women we saw this more than six thousand five hundred girls and women have experienced that and the people in the believe and in the mind of i you say have a target haven't i'm. and there i am. is a way to do exactly what isis has been doing to be on their side to see what isis
9:02 pm
is doing in that region they have embarked exactly on that way to say that the is it is are not on our way so we need to get rid of them when we talk about isis and we need to make a difference between a man and i says i says we are people that came and raped us and sold us six of my brothers five thousand he is leading men who are murdered just because of their gender and because of their other religious belief. so you do some good to be too annoying and i want to ask you now know you wonder. but what can governments. governments and countries on an international level do to avoid such sexual violence in armed conflicts is this a question to both to both of us.
9:03 pm
to work. to the summer of one to raises a question or humanitarian law which. is what we are here to do. is to make sure that this law that it exists is respected full q. and that those actions are punished. we need an impartial. application of the law the problem we have in the d r c is a problem for the post conflict situation we have word or exact the head of the state and very high levels of the state and not just to see has been served after this conflict. d.v.d. player has been this a huge number of victims and no justice has been served and this is the situation we are in today and of course we want that everything that has been applied for
9:04 pm
other conflicts always also should apply to the conflict in the t r c and to the post conflict situation. but you cannot be doing of course and we also need to have the memory of those events. after the peace negotiation well do you have had nobody else no justice and the situation is the same as twenty years ago when it comes to. the murders so we cannot have a lasting peace situation if we don't worry come on one. happened during the conflict and for this just needs to be a part of the process. where there would be most of nature cut around then what we're seeing not what it has how can it is there such as a rape this needs to stop them in mass rape that is happening and i says we have
9:05 pm
seen that they have never brought to justice i want this to become a lesson too and i saw that this is not happening not a single i says terrorist person has come brought to court we haven't seen this a few years later perhaps it will be a different group that will commit this crime so as soon as there is no way of showing just as we will never see and we will see that this injustice will continue despoiled if it's not dealt with now. my name is gladys who shall be reported for writers and my question is for mrs mind is the united nations investigation into the crimes committed by members in iraq doing enough progress in your view and are you hopeful or you pessimistic that all the members who committed crimes in iraq will be brought to justice thank you.
9:06 pm
ok. can you please repeat your question. and then and that can you please repeat the question is can you please repeat the question is the united nations investigation into the crimes committed by the issue in iraq is it doing enough progress at the moment and we're hoping this investigation will lead to the. the prosecution of members are you hopeful are you pessimistic that those dyess members who committed that the dice members will be brought to justice whether in iraq or internationally. i'm leaving a million my out and yes i did not work and this is my job working on this for the last four years to say what i have been saying. to give to make a witness statement in the court and this hasn't been done we haven't seen
9:07 pm
a single isis person before the court i says is a no longer an iraq however. we still see that the rape is taking place and what isis has been done we haven't seen a single piece of justice being a brought to light. we need to receive justice one day searching the. onion smuggled from the swedish radio first of all congratulations to both of you to this price mr mcquade if you allow me maybe a little bit nationalistic question can you please tell me about your relations to sweden and what sweden has meant for your work back please. yes the support like this so. thank you for your question.
9:08 pm
well i'm going to sweden has been a long historic connection with the day our seniors go. and i was in hospital that is one of the results of the collaboration between sweden and my country book would go to a show or to a minute publish number of other actions most of the people democracy for instance in education in congo comes in. also done by sweden so we are very grateful to sweden for that. my name is good my newspaper and no we do broadcasting corporation a question for both. how will this price impact on your work with your struggle a change in any way because of this price. colored
9:09 pm
that would have allowed the captain in this price one price you know and. can not remove all the violence and the attack on pregnant women and children on the women and give them justice but our aim is that this is the price and that has opened the doors opened even more doors so that we can approach more governments see that it it will be brought to court what has happened to girls so we will be more present everywhere in the world so that we can find a solution and to actually stop what is happening. participant . calls. morris the surprise is important. why is it important because we are followed throughout the world now and
9:10 pm
i think it sheds a new light on the types of violence that women are a victim of in a little worse situations i think this is a new like that is shared is really important. but. we cannot say that we didn't act because we didn't know that now everyone knows. and i think now the international community has a responsibility to act in responsibility to those women and those children in war zones so i hope that our presence here today can serve that purpose. and this prize can in no way be seen as a victory and this should really be seen as the start of a new struggle a new struggle against this type of evil this violence made to women and children.
9:11 pm
we. talked. from and h.k. japanese t.v. news you have said. you were asked to use it it's the time to. act not only to denounce but who must act now and what we did actions that this. person has to do thank you. thank you well my opening statement i said that we need a deterrent for i said denouncing is not enough anymore. acting mean. well the night has just been asked the question went on to be a good number of actions are undertaken in thirty or so minutes on the crew
9:12 pm
and no to that one crimes have been discovered to make crimes against humanity and then the glin that in certain cases could be genocide if unfortunately the international community has stopped and decided to list the other way they have decided to not take into account these reports until now we. what we see now different is that the some actions are undertaken to watch but the problem is that the reports and they go into the drawer and no one is acting upon them and this is now an acceptable action well by who is by us sued by you few members of the press if you reflect the reality of what's happening in the do your see you well then you are also. will see the lies in your citizens forced upon you and your citizens have a certain strength when it comes to those who are in the decision makers in your country so i think we're all responsible for acting here we cannot accept that one
9:13 pm
part of our humanity is treated in the way they are treated now. in the back. moments because of them from the newspaper rigi this is a question for both of you do you see and this science of the whole and the reason for optimism in your own congress. yes i do see that for myself i see that for my committee turn my people if it wasn't for the work we have done in the last four years we wouldn't have seen the justice the steps towards justice that are taking place. if you give them a quick to declare. to goodness for peace in the d.r. see there is always hope but. this is not an ethnic or that will happen in our
9:14 pm
country it's not a war between religions. or a religious war it is a war over our natural resources in the d.r. see those natural resources. are used. in the world as a whole. and i think that thanks to this opportunity we have such well then the world will know the world will know the human cost of all the machines were using all the electric cars were using this human cost is huge. and our hope is this i hope the world will not stay indifferent if now so there is a possibility to have all of those items those electric cars those devices we can have them at a human price we do not need this human cost to be so big. my name is denison
9:15 pm
jump from the. christie dog my question is not drama right now denmark has germany has a space accept the one child one hundred. calls in order to treatment do you want other countries to do something like that. if you want one because if all you did is a group then isis would have won because they want an iraq and so we are without the muslim minorities. and. the answer.
9:16 pm
it was indeed but it wouldn't work that i was one of the girls of the one thousand that was accepted by the federal state of body it helped us to move out of the hands off of isis and start a life in boston rittenberg. the violence we saw in the hands of isis was speak and a lot of girls don't have to opportunity to of these that country and to speak up if i wasn't in germany i wouldn't be able to be here and speak to you. people. when you know how his wife when i was or our son crossing over to saudi arabia from riyadh when i think speaking welcoming fellow g.c.c. leaders to the g.c.c. you know we're going to get the. back up. in it even with the kingdom of saudi arabia which is hosting the third you know and summit of the g

9:23 pm
obviously if you look around the table very of course i mean of course it's now the head of state speaking and his country's been trying to mediate this crisis for almost two years now but you don't have president is there here of not least because obviously dog has been. you mentioned the man speaking so we're just going to go back to saudi just to take a listen to what he's got to say. having with then. because we are quite keen to support and give moment to the g.c.c. it's also my pleasure. through this. summit which goes with the. in the. context of race.

9:29 pm
efforts they did made by the international alliance and the coalition to support these consultations and make them success in addition to the great assistance as given by the lines you know to listen to. of what is going on in yemen and the sufferings of brothers and sisters in yemen and also the syrian. crisis is there and it's a national effort and i haven't yet for. the suffering is there in syria and the threat to the whole region and to the whole world is still there we wish the new u.n. envoy to syria to be able to sort out our and this and to be able to reach a political solution based on the international legitimacy geneva one

9:31 pm
the peace process with the region up permanently lasting solution according to the arab peace initiative. to bring stability to the region and to the world we can read you can affirm again that our relationship with iran should be based on the principle as i proved by the united nations when on top of these principles not to intervene here and to others people is. to respect the sovereignty of other peoples respect the good neighborhood in all day for everyone in the region. and security and stability and peace in the region. in the way black and i think you. might say gee you're looking at our country is. our unit say and to
9:32 pm
lead us to the good and the. to be able to give them a good life. the. police uniform. and that was the key. speaking at the g.c.c. summit in riyadh is the former chairman of the g.c.c. some as addressing a welcome session of this meeting as cross back to jamal shell he's in kuwait city. making a brief reference to differences with what he called r g c c a no where was that clearer than round the table or jamal where we saw the kashmiri foreign minister when it should have been the a min. well not even the foreign minister the assistant foreign minister the fact of choosing just ranking official there and obviously there
9:33 pm
are several reasons behind it from a macro perspective let's say that you are talking about the crisis still ongoing that is the blockade imposed by saudi arabia the united arab emirates now for almost two years specifically speaking however if this summit was to take place let's say in amman or as it does last year in kuwait so very much likely that i thought it would have sent the head of states a shift in how funny how over the fact that this is taking place in the in there's been a lot of. unconventional policies put it in a diplomatic terms pursued by this in terms of the reports of them detaining kidnapping essentially ahead of states previously prime minister salih how do you do all of lebanon in the sense that there have been reports of the saudis together with our allies in fact try true orchestrate some sort of coup inside doha it isn't very surprising leadership did not feel truly well confidence in sending.
9:34 pm
head of state vera but obviously what's more significant as you mentioned there is the fact that this g.c.c. this gulf cooperation council has been doing anything but cooperating over the past eighteen months now the reference that the kuwaiti amir made there in kuwait has been the country that's been trying to find some sort of mediation true this crisis with regards to what's been happening has been one as you say very parsing very fleeting comments and what he did was trying to maybe put his influence on the only place that he had been allowed to by the saudis and others which is talking about the media campaigns the popular kind of sentiment has been expressed mainly actually on digital fronts as well as obviously state run television inside the region here if you look at over the past six months or so. there has been very harsh words something that is really very unconventional in gov culture with
9:35 pm
regards to the attacks that have been really scathing to personalities within countries and maybe his attempt there is to try and maybe at least put a stop to the division in the. emerged amongst the societies here knowing that politically speaking there hasn't been much headway made through the mediation sort of framing in terms of trying to find a solution through the heads of states that maybe at least he can make sure that the people on the ground don't fall out considering that there is so much between the different populations you're talking about into mali dreams businesses and other things that the gulf population took over in days ok jim up for the moment thanks very much now let's go over to some of that a solid crossing on that the castle sound. and some of that ball is being closed since the blockade began some eighteen months ago just give us an idea of the impact that actually has. a lot of where i'm standing just about five hundred
9:36 pm
kilometers from here is this saudi capital riyadh and this is the third this point if you are in qatar that you are allowed to travel to two words saudi arabia because the only land border that this been in has been closed and of course it's had it's come at a great cost there was about seventy million dollars per month of just with saudi arabia and the bulk of that was through this border crossing and there was also family relations not just economically but the social fabric of the societies that operate in live throughout the gulf region has also been affected badly there are families which have been separated their precious by each government to try and distance those families from each other something that has never happened in this before in this region before and something that has never happened in the gulf cooperation council since its inception in one thousand. so at the thirty ninth summit it was very much expected that you saw speeches without progressing as jamal
9:37 pm
called it the elephant in the room the blockade that qatar faces right now again by these three are the troika of the six members of the g.c.c. countries who we've been speaking to and also part of the government officials have been speaking out against the blockade it was very tough for them in the very beginning but they seem to have come out of it they feel that they are more self-reliant they have gone the route of trying to stand on their own feet without relying too much on these two major countries saudi arabia where the land route was associated with and the united arab emirates where a lot of pork shipments used to come from ok. joining us now from the cattle saudi border thanks very much. let's turn to some other news now and the outgoing u.s. ambassador to the u.n. has made her first public comments on the murder of sana janice jamal khashoggi the halley's hold the atlantic magazine that a saudi government doesn't get
9:38 pm

9:39 pm
assessment now we also have this new york times article about jared cush news current relationship with the saudis it confirms what we already know gerrard mom had been someone are in very constant what's app contact and text each other a great deal that's continuing since the murder that jarred the new york times says is advising moment been someone on how to weather the storm and is his biggest supporter in the white house in addition the new york times gives us extra information on how that relationship developed the new york times says the saudis targeted krishna two years ago the reason their opinion that jarred knew very little about the middle east. it was one of the fastest turnovers in u.s. a presidential history and now another member of senior staff is leading double leaving donald trump white house chief of staff john kelly goes at the end of the year retired marine general has been in the job for sixteen months kelly is one of

9:51 pm
over saturday reports of the perhaps thirteen hundred fourteen hundred people arrested the amount of economic damage that was caused in the city but elsewhere also the point to make here is there is a distinction that the newspapers are making between the number of arrests made yesterday made on saturday compared to previous bouts of violence because the people there the newspapers talking about a change of emphasis by the police a firm approach perhaps in seeking less provocation to go into groups of protesters and to make arrests which explains perhaps in the view of some newspapers why there were many many people being arrested on the streets here on saturday the point regarding president trump and the foreign minister if the deal well it's the political mess that's been created by this story which by this movement rather which is making the government respond the way that they have been the point here is that they feel particularly it's a tense situation right now for the government they feel they have an electoral

mandate the people don't seem to agree so what happens now well what happens politically to have cut back on speaking sometime this week but what can he do. well the suggestion is the president called will speak on monday and touch upon these issues to show that he understands the concerns of the wall of white a society but his problems don't really end there because standing in front of the parliament building here in paris the someone else you know well tomorrow members of the opposition parties the left wing movements in this country will put down a motion. of center of no confidence in effect in mr macro's government now they have very little chance of winning that vote which would be held on wednesday but it is a it is an example of the anger of the left wing here and clearly they wouldn't be able to even if that folk were to go through that wouldn't bring the macro himself down formally but obviously it would cause very serious trouble for his government
9:53 pm
so you have a really clear sense here as i was saying a gap between the electoral mandate the old forward see that mr macro feels that he has as president and his government has given that it has an absolute majority of seats in the parliament behind me and yet the yawning chasm that's opened up between him and his government and wider society his party's known as lott who become the the the republic rising moving and yet there are newspaper headlines today talking about it being left out of the republican inflames that gives you a sense of perspective of the mess that is that france is in right now the authorities can clear up the mess the damage from the violence can't seem to clear up the mess left politically ok dominic many thanks for joining us there from the streets of paris. now the outgoing u.s. ambassador to the u.n. has made her first public comments on the saudi janice jamal khashoggi he haley avoided assigning outright blame to mohamed bin solman but she did say that as
9:54 pm
saudis crown prince he is technically responsible and he also told the atlantic magazine that the saudi government doesn't get a pos you can't condone it we can't ever say it's ok we can't ever support thuggish behavior and we have to say that let's go live now to hijack castro she's in washington d.c. a resume is strong comments there from haiti how they're being interpreted. well or you can see how she often has said that she agrees with trump's goals when it comes to foreign policy but not necessarily with his style and we saw her navigate that fine line throughout her tenure as u.n. ambassador and in this article two she states how she thinks saudi arabia is a vital partner to the u.s. but that if in her words this thuggish behavior continues then that partnership is in jeopardy now when asked by the interviewer whether mohammed bin samon the crown
9:55 pm
prince of saudi arabia should be held responsible for the killing of jamal khashoggi she didn't you are saying that determination is up to the administration as we know trump has defended the crown prince he has said there is no direct evidence that he ordered the killing of. that is contrary to the conclusion of u.s. senators of both parties who were briefed by the cia last week their determination is that the prince is complicit in the murder in fact in the words of one republican senator that the crown prince would be convicted by a jury in less than thirty minutes laura ok many thanks for putting that story in some context for us that speak to film a u.s. diplomat matthew bryza he's in istanbul why do you think nikki haley is making these comments as she leaves the office of the u.n. ambassador. i think it's probably pretty simple i think it's genuinely what she
9:56 pm
believes i would guess we're speculating of course but i would guess she feels. unfairly restricted and that the trumpet ministrations approach the president's approach has been unjust and on truthful and she's unburdening herself you know was this isn't the first time her tough public line has diverge from that of president trump it's happened before with regard to russia also on issues sort of having to do with moral justice so i think she's she's also reflecting the opinion of what a few people at senior levels in the trumpet ministration who end up be muzzled by the president himself so what do you think at the time that wasn't present trump or make of these comments how is it that italy acts you know probably be angry and i think he's he's getting houston to being angered when sometimes says u.n. ambassador sometimes the secretary of state sometimes is secretary of defense say things that again that diverge from from his line from his attempts in this case to
9:57 pm
sweep this whole issue under the rug if i were he i would probably be reacting internally with a lot of turmoil as well not simply because he's angry at one of his subordinates but because the pressure is really rising all around president from. particularly with regard to former f.b.i. director mueller's investigation of president trump's and present trends campaign russians but also i think president trump looking down the road and he sees that when the democrats take over the house of representatives many members of his administration are going to be subpoenaed many documents will be subpoenaed to dig deeper into the should be let me look at. that constant whatsapp message is to the saudi crown prince mohammed bin salam is anyone that in washington surprised to have that's. i think people probably are not surprised because you know it's i think one of the worst kept secrets in washington recently was the report today
9:58 pm
in the new york times saying that when gerry visited riyadh and the crown prince he was there to coach the crown prince on how to weather this storm of the show you murder until people forget about it so i think in general washington people believe that this is to be expected and i think it's only a narrow circle around president trump that behaves this way that wants to see the question be immersed left under the rug do you think we're going see any reaction from well any accident that's taken by the white house when it comes to the kasam team outta i think only if they're compelled to do so so who can do the compelling well these sorts of our broadcast can over time as long as there's political heat that political heat i don't think is going to come from the american electorate you know this issue as morally repulsive as it is is one that's far removed from from
9:59 pm
the center of normal debate in the united states the case has has garnered a lot of attention i think it's really going to be up to republicans republicans in the senate who have already begun to turn on president trump at least the most senior republican senators and then it will depend on the house of representatives how much how much pressure can they put on their appearance one more factor is something and before the motor russia investigation that investigation is i think going to lead to some very serious consequences perhaps from the trunk family itself so there may come a point where there's so much pressure on president trump that he tries to relieve it by bothering to the political realities with regard to the show your fare in the rest of washington outside the oval office already and saying speak to thanks very much matthew by have taken time to join us. thank you. as one of the fastest turnovers and u.s. presidential history and now another member of senior staff is leaving donald
