a vice president and now functions in the role of president of the committee representing the national parliament which has the active support of more than 60 percent of the m.p.'s elected in the last election so it is very significant that he's come out with a war crime understanding that the committee that he heads has already been very active and actually has more legal standing under the constitution then the illegal hunter well years in hiding and you say it is a war cry so is the war crime more about keeping up for the protesters rather than physically at this moment in time being over be able to overthrow a powerful military. well the his his committee his acting government has the support of the anti coup protesters who are active in 95

percent of the country and in fact it's not just a figurehead government various regional and state parliaments have already sided with the c.r. ph with his administration in fact the myanmar permanent representative to the un as well as tens of thousands of senior and junior public servants are standing on the side of the c.r. ph government you say that you have there are many people standing with this group but they don't have the military hands which is hard were the fighting the this this upsurge of public anger towards with tear gas a bullets a girl a dozens of dying every day how. does the time hope to actually challenge them on the streets of. we are already seeing that even in

yangon on in the yangon region which is the economically most vibrant and most population dense area in the country the c.r.p. has already c.r.p. supporters have already set up alternative local administrations in 44 out of 45 pound chips we're not just talking about protesters in the street we're actually talking about a functioning parallel government right down to local government level in the country could you just give us an idea about the sort of the small ethnic groups that have always been fighting the government people like the ira kind of be the chain other. ethnic groups around the country who've always been looking for some sort of autonomy or have a quite able to see eye to eye with the government and they put all how do they fit into this rather complicated equation about the civil strife in the country at the

moment the c.r.p. age government has actually signaled a very strong departure from the status quo as far as relationships with the ethnic nationality groups are concerned we've seen them do make a public commitment to the abolition of the 2008 constitution and the development of a constitution that recognizes the equality and inclusive beauty of all ethnic groups but we also have to understand. acting president mind when kind time is an ethnic qur'an and the qur'an have been in assists in a situation of intermittent conflict for more than 6 decades with the central government where we see what happens certainly the coming days now is for the moment that we start our thanks so much for joining us from bangkok thanks to hell with you. her name became a rallying cry for the black clive's mass movement and thousands of people in the

u.s. have marched to ensure that brianna taylor is not forgotten every year ago she was shot dead in a botched police raid on her apartment in louisville kentucky mike hanna has more on the continuing fight for justice. protesters once again gather in jefferson square park just as they did a year ago following the police shooting of briana taylor among them a mother still grieving every day still mice that don't see. the anger no less than it was in the wake of the shooting but for me. personally the palmer my guess is that 2nd in matters when the project has remained on raising a. number and there are. no no i think. get away with.

me. after his investigation in kentucky attorney general had this to say about 2 of the 3 police officers involved in the shooting for him to be in touch with. use of force by mattingly in cars were justified to protect themselves this justification for a search pursuing criminal charges in this reality which. the 2 officers were fired from the police department and the 3rd bret hankinson was also fired after being found guilty of firing blindly into the apartment brianna taylor's killing sparked off a nationwide protest and govern eyes the black lives matter movement as it became a major force in forging an ongoing debate about how to curb extralegal police action. president biden has marked the anniversary by tweeting out his condolences briana taylor's death was a tragedy he says

a blow to her family her community and america as we continue to mourn her we must press ahead to pass meaningful police reform in congress i remain committed to signing a landmark reform bill into law. the reform goal is still being discussed in congress but has substantial opposition from republican members in particular mike hanna al jazeera washington as it brought an executive director of the u.c.l.a. blank policy project he says more work needs to be done to prevent other deaths at the hands of police. the changes to come at all levels as president joe biden has mentioned congresswoman karen bass has a tremendous bill in congress that is passed out of congress and moved over to the senate the george forward justice and policing act but also the d.o.j. needs to get involved we need to start talking consent decrees they were not a popular to the trumpet minister and they need to be a popular tool of the biden and ministries and then locally we have to hire we have

to elect we have to support we have to defend progressive prosecutors we also have to elect progressive up and down the ballot we need folks we're going to fight for justice with a history of fighting for justice and we need to be bold and the leadership we choose to represent us black lives matter movement is one of the most powerful engines in organizing our country and our planet has ever seen more folks took to the streets last year than at any point in american history and it pains me that folks. try to detract to try to splinter off that movement except when we see another murder on our t.v. screens right except when we celebrate the anniversary of another loved one or a soul loss too soon black eyes matter has been around well over 7 years that organizing is going to continue we're going to grow but even beyond the black lives matter movement we need progressive elected officials who are going to fight for justice up and down the ballot on all levels of government all across this globe too many folks are being oppressed by systems of harm systems of subjugation and too many folks have lost their lives in the cold in 1000 pandemic and all of its

aftershocks we have to be mindful of that and that's not just the burden of black lives matter organizers it's the burden of elected officials and communities who care about the issues that impact our lives. bolivia's for president. is that it's an absolute outrage that she's being accused of stage against her predecessor eva but alice and has been charged with terrorism sedition and conspiracy to be arrested on saturday night she took interim leader one neurologist in 29 teams following violent protests against his reelection ralitsa is calling for all of those who've been detained to be punished and it's under impunity is following developments from bogota in neighboring colombia these are very very serious charges and based on what is in the warrants and there is no strong evidence so far no smoking gun i'd say at this point to avoid this suspicion that this is

a politically motivated process and the arrest warrant the. prosecutors talked about local media reports some level of testimony but nothing particularly strong there is a though the fact that at that time the head of the army did publicly request a moralist to step down but again i think it's fair to remember dad from when she was president and also. when he was president that times have used their tradition against their critics against their political opponents so in many ways this is nothing new it has happened before in believe if indeed it is a politically motivated process about the current president and he said when he overwhelmingly won the elections last year he had promised to turn the page on the old way of doing politics in the country but now dead he is and there are

increasing scrutiny and pressure due to his response to the coronavirus crisis the worsening economy it seems like he might be doing this same. well still ahead here on al-jazeera a meat market in becomes the focus of attention worldwide we look at the investigation into the origins of coronavirus and why women worry bookers are being singled out in st lanka those stories after the break. it's time for the perfect jenny the weather sponsored plan qatar airways i don't in the states the cherry blossoms now but that storm system has blown through honshu in its back which is cold enough for snow in the mountains a bit of rain otherwise and this is sunday's for kasich least tokyo warming up in the least side and most of honshu and beyond in the sunshine same is true of the
