from around the world his body will lie in state for a few days did he believe the age at the national geo cities in the capital. al-jazeera. hello and welcome to this al-jazeera news hour live from doha i'm martine dennis coming up in the next 60 minutes. the most please we can only leave the brits it on october 31st u.k.'s prime minister boris johnson vows to get on with brett said after the country's highest court rules his decision to suspend pollard was unlawful. the effect on the fundamentals of our democracy was extreme. also ahead 40 people including children are killed as an afghan wedding as u.s.

backed forces target the taliban. world leaders prepared to address the our new un general assembly will be live from new york. but 1st the british prime minister boris johnson says he disagrees with the ruling by the supreme court that's the country's highest court that his decision to suspend parliament was unlawful bought he says that he's promising to respect that verdict as british politicians go back to westminster with the 31st deadline looming there are growing demands for the prime minister to resign he says he'll fight on. obviously this is a verdict that we will respect and respect the judicial process i have to say i strongly disagree with what the justices have done and i don't think that.

it's right that we will go ahead and course upon the come back i do think there's a good case for getting on with the queen's speech anyway move do that by the way support things we get on and librax it on october 31st and this clearly a the claimants in this case are determined to try to frustrate that and to to stop that i think it is very unfortunate if parliament made that objective which of the people want delivered more difficult to get on well it certainly get a sense of exactly what was said in that supremes co-chairing this court has already concluded that the prime minister's advice to her majesty was unlawful void and of no effect this means that the order in council which led was also a little full void and of no effect and should be quashed the progression was also

void and of no effect parliament has not been for wrote this is the unanimous judgment of all 11 justices probably got 19 barbara correspondent in brighton that's in the south of england where the opposition labor party is holding its party its conference well things are in in a bit 1st so let's go to rory challenge he's outside the houses of parliament in central london and rory so with that supreme court ruling the unanimous ruling it's basically handing the ball back into the court of parliament. yes and parliaments as we know now in a statement from john bercow speaker of the house of commons is going to be convening once again tomorrow at 1030 g.m.t. the house of lords is also going to be convening again tomorrow this is

a quick movements after that decision from the supremes court forest johnson as you just heard earlier in the program a short while ago basically pretending as if this doesn't really change anything this is the prime minister who famously compared himself to the incredible hulk and it wasn't looking particularly green or angry in his statement to the press just a short while ago but he was saying that he will continue as he puts it repeatedly to get this thing done get bricks it done he's as in change anything we will still be leaving the european union on october 31st the reporter asked him well you can't do that without a deal because parliament has expressed before that unless parliament votes that that is permissible which it has not done and is not likely to do so the u.k.

is still in this quandary we have had this momentous this year this isn't handed down by the u.k. supremes court boris johnson is still trying to push ahead with getting a queen's speech through that would he said he says include another program of parliament presumably a very short one. botts we are heading towards an election if he's not resigning and the opposition parties don't want to hold an election until after the 31st of october when they've had it off and then the only option that they have is to call a no confidence. motion in the government to try and bring boris johnson down that way that's complicated for them though because they will have to decide who is going to head up a caretaker government most of them don't want terribly corben the leader of the labor opposition party to do so so that is a difficult thing for them to try and reach a consensus on and what parliament does with the time between now and 31st of

october is very unclear there is going to be a lot of talk going on and as we see stand from this moment no clear way out of the impasse all right rory outside parliament in london thank you well rory made mention of jeremy colvin the leader of the main opposition labor party let's hear some of what he had to say following that ruling from the supreme court. and i am by far is johnson in the historic words to consider his position let the big. picture they make her message and become the shortest serving prime minister there's ever been one. and nadine is there in brighton on the south coast of england and jeremy corbyn

then calling upon her as johnson to consider his position to use his words and what else is the labor party preparing to do any idea yet. martin firstly the leader of the party gerry coburn his speech was due to be on wednesday wrapping up the official business of conference but now that's going to happen in 2 hours time from now so bringing everything forward in the next few hours we were due to hear from the deputy leader of the party tom watson he's now not going to be talking now there was a. i don't expect you to attempt to get rid of his position before congress began that didn't work. let's talk of rival right at the top let's go straight now to test the un secretary general is he evidence this is general assembly isn't this peter nations people without brakes and hopes and above

a credible balanced and inclusive syria announced and syrian led constitutional committee by special envoy just left the bus after a few no lies in the last details with the government and the opposition and united nations look forward to convening the committee in geneva in the coming weeks but excellences across the global landscape we see conflicts persisting terrorism spreading and the risk of a new arms race growing outside interference is often in violation of security council resolutions make peace processes more difficult and so many situations remain unresolved from yemen to libya to afghanistan and beyond's a succession of unilateral actions threatens to torpedo a 2 state solution between as israel and palestine and in venezuela

4000000 people have fled the country when of the largest these placements in the world's attentions elevated in south asia where differences need to be addressed so the l o and above all we are facing the alarming possibility of armed conflict in the gulf the consequences of which the world cannot afford the recent attack on saudi arabia oil facilities was totally unacceptable in a context where a minor miscalculation can lead to a major confrontation we must do everything possible to push for a reason and restraint and i hope i hope for a future in which all the countries of the region can live in a state of mutual respect and cooperation without interference in each other's affairs. and they will be clearly that it will still be possible to preserve the

economic social cultural political and civil it would be a mistake to ignore or diminish economic social and cultural rights but it would be equally misguided to think that those rights are enough to answer people's yearnings for freedom human rights are universal and indivisible one cannot pick and choose favoring sun while visiting governors people have a right to wellbeing and dignified standards of lives with else housing and food social protection and the sustainable environments education not only to learn scenes but to learn how to learn and prepare to the future and this in jobs especially for young people these rights permeate the 2030 agenda for sustainable

development and they're among our best tools for preventing conflicts yet we are not on track inequality is exploding our global economy generates great flows of income but this prosperity skeptic by a small number of elites it is a set of old world today that wealth chances of living a life free of words and in full human dignity still depends more on the circumstances of one's birth then one's innate capacities. today's development goals summits and the search there is dialogue on financing are opportunities to ramp up and bishan including by utilizing the promise of technology and innovation as recommended by the level panel on the she told corporation that has concluded its reports excellencies

is was emphasized in yesterday's climate action summits the climate emergencies race we are losing but it is a race we can win if we change our ways now even our language just with depths what when's was called climate change is now truly a climate crisis and what was once called global warming is more acutely become global heating we are seeing and precedented temperatures and relenting storms and and deniable science 10 days ago in the bahamas i saw the ruin caused by hurricane dorian that after mass is a mere pollutes to work science tells us 1 is on its way but something else is on its way solutions and the world is starting to move not yet fast enough but

to move in the right direction away from fossil fuels and towards the opportunities of a green economy and the climate summit i lighted some of the solutions we need to scale up in order to dramatically reduce emissions keep temperatures rise 20.5 degrees and reach carbon neutrality by 2050 but we are not yet there we must build on this momento and do much more to be able to defeat climate change excellence. lipper blue blood of the libya be found among the shocked be appalled me the fear he's picked the. wrong. moment he. did while. he saw mina. it's the economy threatened reversed or undermined we see wide reaching impunity including impunity for violations of

international humanitarian law we also see new forms of authority thora terrorism appearing and the civic space is narrowing and citizens' voices are being stifled human rights advocates environmental activists and journalists are being targeted. day after day a click by click camera by camera surveillance systems are expanding their reach and encroaching on our privacy but these breaches go beyond of a breakdown in rules governing the behavior of states and businesses they are playing out on a deeper level they bring into question very compassion and our humanity. for i believe the u.n. secretary general there as he continues with his opening address to the general assembly our diplomatic efforts against bay's

a veteran of so many general assemblies james this is generally viewed as the secretary general's review of the year if you like and he started off with maybe some of the problems when told to some of the successes and then ended in the english version anyway with what now seems to be the central issue of this general assembly and that is climate. yes and clearly climate was the subject for monday here at the u.n. everyone focusing on climate but it also had to be an important part of this speech by the secretary general which is as you say his annual report because this is very much big become his main focus when the secretary general took office 2 and a half years ago i think he was trying to chart a slightly different course from his predecessor bank ki-moon who had focused on climate and development in his last years as secretary general and the secretary

general appointed a deputy ameena mohammed who had been working very hard on the sustainable development goals those are the goals that took over from the millennium development goals goals that look at ways to make life better for all of humanity and he gave his deputy that task while he was going to focus on conflict prevention he hasn't really had a very good track record on that so he started off trying to get a peace deal in cyprus that looked like it was a possibility but the talks went very badly and more recently of course earlier this year the effort was on libya he said of the conflicts in the middle east that was the one he felt was the most the most of all the one that we certainly have the have the most to have a chew knitty for him to turn things around and you remember he went to tripoli to try and get things going try and get that conference of all the parties going and they were going to plan to have in the desert town of good dharmas and while he was there in tripoli general haftar launched his brazen attempt to try and seize

tripoli that didn't work but clearly the situation in libya now is much grimmer than it was and it seems in recent months with some of his trips some of his trips to the pacific some his trips to places that have been hit by climate emergencies going to mozambique and most recently so the bahamas but he is pivoted back to the issue of development and climate as he. main issue interesting that he did say on conflict there are some positive bright spots to look up for example the central african republic and even that long running issue of the name of 'd macedonia north of macedonia that has been resolved but then he went through the list of all of the things that have not been resolved and it's very grim getting i think to the main headline of this beach which is very hard hitting comments from the secretary general i think making it one of the toughest comments he's made

since he's been secretary general of this idea of the world splitting into 2 he didn't use the phrase new cold war he used the phrase great world splitting into 2 with the 2 largest economies on earth so he's referring to the u.s. and china trading 2 separate and competing worlds a vision that clearly goes against the whole ethos of the u.n. certainly one that you hear behind the scenes being talked about by diplomats a lot of the 3 at tricks in the u.n. 6 concern the security council and they concern the u.s. and russia but it's the rising influence in china the behind the scenes seems to be the trend that is most concerning diplomats and there are some in western circles who see china as belton road as a neo colonial projects and these are the sort of issues i think that the secretary general is getting at he can't afford to offend any of the 5 permanent members but he is making it clear that 2 of the 5 permanent members are working in

a direction that could see the world divided right thank you for that james bays our diplomatic editor we'll leave you to carry on listening to the statements as they continue in new york here in the studio with me at director of the center of the conflict and humanitarian status at the doha institute for graduate studies up of the things that so doubt for you and for the. the secretary general's address i noticed particularly for instance that on his list of successes he included the mention of a constitutional committee for syria which he announced just yesterday i think by far is probably the most important and most significant achievement in terms of peacemaking that he has been able to deliver over the last year obviously the nature of the conflicts that we're living today have made the role of the u.n. that much more difficult and it's no longer resolved by the u.n. involvement on its own there are many many actors and nations regional powers that

are involved in a lot of the conflicts that he listed as places where he has attempted but not been able to achieve much including libya and yemen of course earlier in the year the attempt in yemen was very important and the sec regional played the part of you know a personal role in that where they managed to get a. kind of cease fire going in the head data region didn't they but it's a very fragile situation it seems now to have disappeared into thin air doesn't it because. conflict has resumed has it not and i suspect it has to come back into focus particularly after the attack in saudi arabia i think that attack has focused everyone's mind as to the great vulnerability we're all exposing ourselves to by allowing this conflict to proceed and i suspect that the u.n. and the terrorists in particular will be playing a greater role in yemen in the coming absolutely i mean make mention of those attacks 10 days ago or so on saudi oil facilities focusing therefore on the goals

and the conditions in the gulf are like tinder aren't they. europeans recently coming out and backing the united states and saying iran indeed was responsible for these attacks even though there. is of yemen claimed responsibility i mean how how far does this take western nations and in these saudi arabia down the road. potential conflict by identifying iran as the perpetrator of these attacks i think at this stage and given the whole thesis mission they need to be much more careful i mean die deal. way forward would be to establish an international commission that looks independently into the situation and comes to a conclusion given the history in the region and given the history of the war in iraq and everything else. i think would be much wiser to move slower towards were the position of saudi arabia united states and relying more maybe this is

a role for the u.n. to play rely on a commission from the united nations to go and look into the situation and publish the evidence it's very important to take people along with you in this region and without showing exactly verified evidence would be very difficult i think in the region to buy into whatever conclusion they come to what expectations should we have then for the uranium proposal known is that the whole news proposal for peace hope i think it's being known as i mean should we expect much to come from that when president rouhani unveils it at the general assembly i suspect the united states and saudi arabia would probably reject it out of hand although i again would be wise to consider it the fact that it talks about regional countries policing their own area is in a self a good way forward they've added to this layer of united nations

a provision which would give guarantees to the smaller nations and to the rest of the world that this is going to be worked out collectively and maybe there is a military to move the region has tried all other forms of security and they seem to fail one after the other side arabia has tried relying on the united states security to provide provision and that didn't work in the last few weeks so maybe it is time for them to sit together and talk about their own sea and how to monitor and protect their own interests so time barack out for now thank you very much indeed thank you very much. now we're going to continue to monitor the general assembly and we'll go back there now though let's have a look at the rest of the world in the deaths of 40 people at an afghan wedding and adding to major concerns about security just days before the presidential election there's uncertainty as to exactly what happened in mosul color region of helmand province that's in the south of the country on sunday night the government says the

army was targeting a taliban training base where they killed fighters and arrested others so the question is why so many civilians died robin wright has the latest from kabul. well afghanistan's military says the attack against foreign fighters was successful but once again it seems civilians including women and children became casualties sources in helmand province so the victims were attending a wedding party on sunday evening when they were attacked as the rescuers attended to the dead and injured a crowd gathered at a local hospital waiting for any news should be unless i give him a plane arrived and bombarded the wedding ceremony and some nearby houses including my own around 50 to 60 people in market and 5060 others are wounded 0 1 1 this attack follows another last week in eastern province when a strike is said to be targeting an iso hideout killed dozens of villages working

nearby afghan civilian deaths in coalition operations have long been a contentious issue particularly because of the sophisticated weaponry used by nato and u.s. forces even with having with all the precision. weapons and all the you know up to date latest technologies the civilian casualties were unavoidable of course the underlying. requirement for all of this is good intelligence if you don't have good intelligence often what happens is that you end up us. targeting civilians. the u.n. says that more civilians have been killed this year in operations by the afghan military and their coalition allies than by armed groups including the taliban a report just published by the ministry of health has further highlighted the problem showing that in the past year 3300 civilians have been killed and another

16 and a half 1000 wounded robert bridle just here a couple in yemen to the fighters say a saudi led coalition air strike in the south of the country has killed at least 13 people the bomb hit a residential building in clear province a session rescue operations underway on monday an airstrike in iran province killed 7 people all members of the same family they were hiding in a mosque. police in indonesia's pub who are regions say they found bodies and burned buildings bringing the death toll from armrests to at least $26.00 many of them died after protesters set fire to government buildings shops homes and cars in one manner the violence was sparked by allegations that a teacher insulted a local student that power is internees is eastern most region and shares a border with popular new guinea the indigenous people there are melanesian they

share similarities with the people of new guinea and some of the pacific islands now these places protests began last month and they have added to calls for independence indonesia confirmed control of papua after a disputed referendum in 1909 which many powerful and say was rigged grievances have been further inflamed by accusations of racism and the allegations of rights abuses by the security forces activists say local people haven't benefited from the wealth generated by the region's minerals the poverty rate is 20 percent and compare that with the national rate of 9 percent i've been speaking to damien kingsbury professor of international politics at deakin university in australia is an expert on indonesia he says it's clear papuans are demanding a split from indonesia. well it's a continuation of the situation we've seen now for several weeks and indeed really

going back to last december with the murder of 20 internation construction workers near the village of west papuan. what this river what this reflects is that there is gradual amongst the west pop once the resistance movement and they're becoming much more active and that's being manifested in protests on the straights and the security forces responding by cracking down quite hard on them in many cases taking i think it's very widespread like last year there was a petition that was actually signed by west papuans melanesian was populations 1800000 signatures on a calling for a referendum on independence of a population of 4000000 that's a pretty extraordinary c.e.o. and i think it indicates that the movement is quite widespread across the province and there's a broad desire for a change in the political circumstances jakarta there is now no appetite for having a referendum on independence or indeed any sort of discussion but they would be no

resolution to this conflict without some sort of maybe ice dialogue some external broker coming in and sitting down between the parties at the moment their positions are very far apart. the spain supreme court has ruled that the government can examine the remains of former leader general francisco franco franco currently lies in the valley of the fall of. the end of the civil war that his relatives and right wing politicians had opposed moving his remains. to the family to the moving comes as column it was dissolved and elections declared opposition parties have accused the ruling says this is seeking political gain with the exhumation. now greece is new center right government is facing perhaps its 1st major industrial action no public buses nor trains are running in athens ships to stay in their docks unions representing workers from

towards a solution but it's one of the delegates seemed to be satisfied with as they came up with a blueprint for a temporary emergency mechanism in order to resolve the migration crisis in europe certainly seem to be optimistic that they would present those plans on the 8th of october at another interior ministers meeting in luxembourg now the challenge for this would be in order to get other member states to try and take in more of the asylum seekers that have landed especially in malta and italy there has been a great deal of pushback from countries such as poland and hungary who refused to do so and certainly the migration policies have played a part in that but there is also another solution and office certainly of taking in a higher quote from france and from germany they said they would be prepared to

take 25 percent of any asylum seekers who landed here italy would also be prepared to take 10 percent but that is they say because they've received tens of thousands of people on their shores nevertheless trying to persuade other member states to take in more people will certainly be a challenge and also will no doubt rile up our. voices in other countries throughout the european union. kenya's government has ordered a nationwide inspection of all school buildings a roof collapse killed 8 people injured 64 others in the capital nairobi the 1st floor of the building gave way trapping the children below to remain in critical condition. we are going to go to this report from katherine sawyer or are we going to go to the 2 new york we're going to go to new york at least because i think you . know the brazilian president is about to take this let's listen to him. you bill

pointed of presiding over brazil and also for the opportunity to reestablish truth which is of course a good thing to all of us mr president of the one general assembly mr to johnny mohamed monday secretary general of the united nations organization and when you go terrorists. heads of state government and heads of delegations ladies and gentleman. i come here before you today to introduce you to a new brazil a country that is now reemerging after coming from the brink of socialism a country that is being rebuilt on the ideals of its people under my administration brazil has been working to regain the world trust and also to lower unemployment. and business risks by

reducing iraq received through deregulation and especially by leading through example my country was very close to socialism which led to a situation of widespread corruption serious economic recession. high crime rates and. continuous ceaseless attacks against family and religious values that are part and parcel of our traditions in 2013 in agreement between the former workers' party and the cuban dictatorship brought to brazil 10000 doctors who had no evidence of professional training they were prevented from bringing in their spouses or children and 75 percent of their wages were confiscated by the human regime and they were further prevented from enjoying fundamental rights such as for example the right to go and come. truly tantamount

to slave labor believe me. supported by human rights organizations both in brazil and the united nations organization even before i took office almost 90 percent of these cuban citizens left brazil as a result of a one sided initiative by the cuban government those who decided to stay in brazil will undergo proper technical eligibility criteria to allow them to exercise their medical profession brazil has therefore. stopped contributing to the cuban dictatorship by no longer standing to have an a $300000000.00 this had been the case every year history has taught us that already back in the line things sixty's cuban agents were sent out to several countries to collaborate towards implementing dictatorships in the region. a few decades ago they tried to change the brazilian regime and the system in place in other countries and latin america they were defeated brazilians civilians and

military were died were killed and so many had their reputation fully destroyed we have nevertheless overcome that war and we have upheld our freedom. in venezuela these agents of the cuban regime introduced by who go charges also made their way into heaven as well and today there are 60000 cuban agents who control and interfere in all areas of the even as well as society especially in intelligence and defense venezuela. formerly a vibrant democratic country currently experiences the cruelty of socialism. it is fair to say that the us socialism is working in venezuela. they're all poor and deprived of freedom of. brazil has also felt the impact resulting from even as well indicate a ship of the more than $4000000.00 venezuelan citizens who fled the country

a sizeable portion migrated to brazil fleeting hunger and violence we have done our part to help them in the system through the. operational welcome carried out by the brazilian army and praised the worldwide we have also worked with other countries including the united states of america to ensure that democracy will be established in venezuela. we have also. endevor their very best efforts to ensure that other south american countries will not experience this harmful regino this all paulo forum a criminal organization created back in 19051905 fidel castro lula da silva and chavez to disseminate and implement social as a latin america remains alive and must become better. ladies and gentlemen. in the quest for prosperity we have been put in place policies that will bring us

closer to other countries that have achieved development and consolidated they are democracies there can be no political freedom without economic freedom and vice versa a free market concession projects and privatization opportunities are already a visible part of today's brazil the brazilian economy is now responding as the distortions and chains of nearly 2 decades have been overcome more than 2 decades of fiscal irresponsibility yet many people ation the ideological many place of the state apparatus and widespread corruption economic openness capable government management and productivity gains are immediate goals of our administration we are opening up the economy and we are integrating ourselves into the global value chain . you know more than 8 months we have successfully completed the 2 most important

to largest trade agreements in the history of my country i'm talking about the recently signed agreements between the mercosur bloc of countries in the european union and those will be. when workers were and the european free trade area the f t a we intend to go ahead and enter into more such agreements in the next few months we also stand ready to start out our process of access to the organization for economic cooperation and development the o.e.c.d. . we're well underway in that effort and have adopted the world's highest standards and best practices in all areas ranging from financial regulation all the way up to environmental protection. madam. indigenous representative a leader is on the color. green indigenous spokesperson is here and we will now speak about the amazon in particular 1st of all may i say that my administration

has solemnly committed itself to environmental preservation and sustainable development to the benefit of brazil and of the world at large brazil is one of the world's richest countries in biodiversity and mineral resources in a region is larger than all of western europe and remains virtually pristine and untouched which is evidence of the fact that we are one of the countries that most protect the environment during this season of the year the dry weather and winds are conducive in favorable and favors spontaneous forest fires and also criminal burnings it should be highlighted that there are forest fires are burning is that are part of the ordinary practice of indigenous peoples and the local populations as part of their own culture and means of livelihood we all know that all countries health problems yet the haitian alist attacks that we have suffered coming from

a large part of the international media due to the fire outbreaks and the amazonian region have aroused our patriotic. and. it is a fallacy to say that the amazon is the heritage of humankind and a misconception is confirmed by scientists to say that emma's own forests are the lungs of the world well using and resorting to these fellas is certain countries instead of helping work on the media lies and behaved in a dis respectful manner and with a colonialist spirit 5. they even called into question that which we hold as the most sacred value our sovereignty. one of these countries during a recent g 7 meeting. suggests applying a sanctions to brazil without even consulting with or hearing brazil i think those

countries that did not accept to go ahead with this absurd proposal. in particular . i think present donald trump who very aptly summarized this period that should prevail among united nations member countries i.e. respect. for the freedom and the sovereignty of each of us as nations currently 14 percent of the president territory are that marketed officially as indigenous lands but one must understand that our natives are human beings just as any one of us here they want and they deserve to enjoy the same rights as all of us. i want to make it plain and clear brazil will not increase the 20 percent her area already the market of officially has indigenous lands as some have of state would like to see. in brazil there are 225 different

indigenous peoples in addition to about 70. try living in isolated locations nationwide each indigenous people are tribe has their own chief their own culture their own traditions and customs and above all they have their own way of seeing the world. the view of one indigenous leader does not represent the views of all brazilian indigenous people oftentimes some of these leaders such as tribal chiefs. have been used as maneuvering tool box manipulated by government or foreign governments in their information war too advanced they are interested in the amazon but unfortunately. some people both and outside of brazil supported by n.g.o.s have covering only insisted on treating and keeping our indians as if they were real caveman. brazil now has a president that is concerned with those who were there in our territory before the

portuguese arrived back in the 1500 the indigenous people do not want to be poor in large land holders sitting on rich lands they do not especially sitting on the world's richest lands that is precisely the case of the low money reserve in the repos a sara the soil reserve these reserves are home to a vast deposits of gold diamont the rain and the obion and rare earths among other resources and these territories are here. the no money reserve alone numbers approximately 95000 square kilometers an area equivalent to the size of portugal or of hungary although only 15000 indigenous people live in such a vast area yet this goes to show clearly that those who attack us are not at all

concerned about invasions as human beings but rather are concerned more about the mineral riches and the biodiversity that exists in these areas. as evidence to you. of the fact that there is no single authority among the indigenous peoples i wish to read out to you a letter. drafted in representing a substantial part of the indigenous communities in brazil addressed to you the united nations assembly open letter to the indigenous peoples of brazil the group of indigenous farmers of brazil made up by several different ethnic groups and found in all states of the brazilian federation and inhabiting an area of more than $30000000.00 hectares of the brazilian territory here by respectfully addresses the brazilian society to express its total and unconditional support to indigenous spokesperson and representative is and you call up or who is here with us from the

issuing go indigenous park mato grosso est so that she may attend the un assembly of the un general assembly in new york in the us and their voice and explain the reality experienced by the indigenous peoples in brazil and also bring to the fore the current situation of the lies this emanate in propagated by the international and national media that they have insisted on turning brazil's indigenous peoples into an endless market reserve serving the interests of foreign countries that still. view brazil as a colony without rules or without sovereignty. 14 percent of brazil's national territory are duly and regularly established as official indigenous lands many such communities are thirsty and eager. and hope that the development of this portion of the country will finally take place without ideological chains which will in turn enable achievement of

a higher quality of life in standard of living in fields such as entrepreneurship health care and education a new policy is needed for indigenous peoples in brazil and time is of the essence here bold measures can and should be encouraged in the pursuit of autonomy economic empowerment of the indigenous peoples quite certainly if a serious of the seizures are taken to that effect we will be able to envisage a new approach to the brazilian indigenous agenda in new period of time a new chapter of hope is needed currently for the indigenous communities the situation of extreme poverty in which they find themselves. surviving on nothing but a family stipend and basic baskets of foods the us has never delivered dignity or development radical extreme environmentalist and outdated approaches to the cause of indigenous people that are out of sync with what indigenous peoples truly want are tantamount to bet war there's marginalization an absolute lack of citizenship

the reality described here requires that the world leaders attending the un general assembly learn and become familiar with our wishes and there's be rationed through the voice of indigenous spokesperson is on the color part. who will convey to you all the real situation regarding the brazilian indigenous communities and the environment spokesperson in is on the color of their 4 enjoys the trust and prestige of the indigenous leaders that are interested in further development empowerment in a higher profile role and voice in this that's fully in opposition to represent 52 ethnic groups listed in the attachment here to the monarch of tribal chief roney is over. the united nations organization performed a key role in overcoming colonialism in the past and cannot possibly accept that this type of mindset to be allowed to come back to its rooms and holds no matter

under what pretext we cannot forget that the world needs to be fed. france and germany for example use up more than 50 percent of their territories for every culture by contrast brazil uses no more than 8 percent of its own lands for food production. 6161 percent of our territory are preserved. ours is a 0 tolerance policy towards crime including environmental crimes. i wish to again affirm my stance in this regard and initiative to help or support preservation of the amazon forest or other biomes must be treated in full respect for brazilian sovereignty. we also

reject the attempts to excell or exploit and use the environmental agenda or the indigenous policy agenda as tools to further a political economic interest of foreign countries especially those that are disguised there is good information. we stand ready to work together in partnerships and by adding value to our resources so as to sustainably develop all of our up with a shell of. brazil here by reaffirms her. compromising unmistakable commitment to the highest standards of human rights to advocate in democracy and freedom to include freedom of expression religious freedom and freedom. the press a commitment that goes hand in hand with our efforts to fight corruption and crime . which our society urgently cold war we will continue to contribute

both within and outside of the united nations framework to build a world where there is no impunity there is no hideout or shelter to criminals and corrupt people under my administration. it 10 and here is your chance that he but these 3 fled brazil was later arrested him believe and then extradited to italy. 3 other terrorists from paraguayan the one from chile who used to live in brazil up until recently as political refugees have also be returned to their countries of origin. terrorists operating under the guise of politically persecuted individuals and will no longer find refuge in brazil. not too long ago socialist presidents who preceded me in brazil. and misused hundreds of billions of dollars to buy a part of the media and the brazilian parliament all in the name of an absolute

power agenda they have been tried and punished thanks to the sense of patriotism perseverance 8 and courage of a judge who has become a symbol of my country i'm talking about dr sears your moro. incumbent minister of justice and public safety. those presidents who came before me. also transfer the sizable amount of these funds to 3rd party countries with the purpose of fostering and putting in place similar power projects throughout the region. now that source of funds has now dried out and those same top ranking government officials used or would. come here to the us year after year and make this an gaged speeches about topics that never ever served brazil's real interests nor did they ever contribute to foster greater world stability still they were all

applauded. in my country and we had no choice but do something about the virtually 70000 murders and countless violent crimes that used to massacre the brazilian population every year life after all is the most basic of human rights our military police officers were the preferred target of crime up until recently in 2017 alone about 400 military police officers were cruelly murdered. however that is changing now measures have been taken and we have succeeded in the lowering by more than 20 percent the number of murders in the 1st 6 months of my administration drug seizures including cocaine and other drugs have reached record record levels so far today brazil is a safer country and even.
