but we need 11000000000 dollars and we need to move away from the idea of charity crumbs from the rich countries. and let developing countries like south africa or india produce their own vaccines. and the only way to do that is to share the vaccine recipe and break through the monopolies of these big pharma corporations. and, boris jones really doesn't want to do that. so he wants his all to talk about donations and the large yes of the richest nations, when in fact, they're big, hugely selfish putting profit over people. but now the age of consumerism, fossil fuel addiction, things would use protest as a being kept well away from the some of the venue. but for once the issues they raise are actually being discussed. there's pressure to wave payton. so the poorer countries can develop vaccines for themselves. the u. s. and france are in favor with others yet to follow the climate and inequality or among the worlds crises that will talk the agenda on sunday. they call it the g 7, but really there is no doubt who the 2 leading figures are here,

3:09 am
accusing the interim president and prime minister of re shuffling the cabinet without consultations. all the officials have several key positions in the government led by military leader, colonel a, c. me goiter who was sworn in as president on monday. that spring and william lawrence. he's a former us diplomat onregional security officer in west africa. he's also a professor of political science and international affairs of the american university. joining us now via skype from washington dc. many thanks for speaking to us and out there. what do you make of these appointments in this new government in molly? so it was a little bit unexpected for me we have 4 key positions that went to army and fish. so in that sense, it's a more military military government following the qu. but we also had 5 positions. go to the in the are the m 5 opposition ment and even
3:10 am
positions go to for rebels. and so that signals that the government is maybe less concerned about what the international think of it. but it's trying to endear itself to the molly and people and respond to some of their demands at least symbolically by bringing these people into the government. so that was quite interesting. how much support is that domestic play for the military and going to leadership? well, there was a lot of support with the removal of the previous government and previous president last august. but since then there hasn't been too much support for the 1st. who are the 2nd who and the leaders. there isn't much competing these cool leaders are, are able to do much and they haven't delivered much, you know, other than the symbolic actions and including some of these people in the government. they haven't really been able to offer much to promote, to overcome between security and economic crisis, which is at the heart of all protests. so a lot of molly and just have a wait and see attitude to see if this government can deliver anything better than
3:11 am
the previous government. and so far they haven't accomplished much. well, talking of security issues, the french president emanuel microns this week announced plans to wind down his countries, minutes the ministry presence in, in west africa, in this a hell region. how significant is not going to be it's not a good move by the french, and a qu, leaders said, following just re shovel that they really want to let the french know that this crew had nothing to do with, with the french one. and they could cooperate with france, differential intervention. and molly was not very popular and has gotten more on over time. but the french withdrawl, i think it's even more popular and they're disengaged from molly enforce. it may make short term sense to be okay. we're not connected to the school leaders, but it's bad for the anti hottest separate molly? it's bad for the overall stability of molly. it's basically telling these pushes
3:12 am
that they have to go with a loan in an area where you're seeing those big massacre than burkina faso and an uptick by something like 20 percent of the killing of civilians over the last year . i mean, the security situation is bad and getting worse, and so the french pull out really doesn't help. and also, when the french government says, look, don't talk to insurgents, which is what most dollars, millions want to bring. some stability got to know unhelpful messages. could we see the role of russia and the region increase? now that france is taking a step back, we know the military, the military side has, has been supportive of the russian cooperation in the region. i'm very concerned about that and there's been a lot of brushing opportunism in the region in general. and molly, the cool leaders were in training and russia just a week before the crew last august. there's a lot of us, you know, unverified information internet about russian soldiers coming, mercenary support,
3:13 am
the rock and i was, i thought, really interesting that one of the reasons, protested molly outside the russian embassy asking for more help. so all of that suggest to me that russia season opportunity here. but i think the cool leaders will be, i think, foolish to go in that direction because it's really not going to help them stabilize the country. and it's not going to help them with their traditional western backers and democracy block that wants to bring back democracy to molly, having had a 20 year democratic period, i really, i think, going badly for the region and for my money. thanks for you. another william lauren's former us diplomats and regional secures office in west africa. thank you please. and still ahead on al jazeera, the punish surprised honors. the teenager who filled them out of george floyd igniting worldwide movement against police brutality. on 2020,

rain that we have across southern china into north vietnam. the monsoon range now to a quite nice to the south west the monsoon, driving those showers in all way across into the philippines. usual scattering showers there across sir, malaysia. it's indonesia, but the heavy rain will be around thailand and across the bye have been goal. the black one that i've drawn on the chart here, that is the progress of the south west the monsoon, the summer range. so little ahead of schedule across western parts of india, more heavy down pools here. but this large massive cloud that we have in the back up and go. that's a circulation red warning, same force across the northeast of india with heavy shouts for a dish. and much upon the dash sponsored pay cut on airways. the demand for low price is accelerating at high speed. that's absolutely great by 2030, the industry will expand by an additional 60 percent. i'll just be, we'll take a detailed look at disposal fashion. we handle one hour,

3:18 am
yeah, it's important to put this in a little bit of context here. this all goes back to around 2018 under president. then president donald trump and the justice department that he essentially oversaw them. what the allegations are is that the trump white house ordered the justice department. perhaps the allegations are to get phone records in meta data e mails and what have you from political rivals and journalists, as part of the white house's attempt to see who was leaking damaging information about donald trump. but the problem with this is that the justice department is an independent body. it's not supposed to be doing get involved with political things such as this at all. and the trumpet whitehouse no secret had it had always made no secret of the fact that it was using the justice department to do some of the
3:19 am
bidding if you will. that's not necessarily a secret. has been all sorts of allegations for a long time. but these are just new and democrats right now are outraged on capital hill. that these new allegations coming to light that perhaps in 2018 to 2019 that the justice department was seeking records e mails, phone call records, and such and alike from to prominent democrats on the house intelligence committee, or 2 democrats that were particularly vocal against donald trump, this just goes completely against the norms and perhaps even breaking laws. and so that is why there is so much outrage about this by democrats right now. and that is why. on friday, the justice department said we're, we're taking our inspector general, who is essentially an internal auditor, if you will. and we are now going to look at how this happened if it happened, if you will. and if any rules or laws were broken by the justice department at that
3:20 am
time, so perhaps it won't happen again, but certainly a lot of outrage particularly by, by democrats about this. so what could the potential ramifications be as a result of this pro gabriel? well, it all goes back again to the former justice department, run by bit will william bar and perhaps jeff sessions before him under donald trump . they're all gone. of course, as we all know, trump's out of office, there's a new attorney general in place. so it could be very embarrassing though for william bar or jeff sessions, if they are called in front of congress to testify about this. what ramifications they could face beyond embarrassment? it's a little unclear at this point, but the real question is, how much and how far do democrats want to pursue this? knowing that it was from the previous administration that is going to be the big question. moving forward then he thinks that gabriel alexandra there for us in

washington dc. us attorney general merritt garlen has told staff that within the next month the justice department will double the number stuff, enforcing federal voting laws. and they've comes as republican politicians push a raft of new laws to ties and voting walls in several states. there are many things that are opened to debate in america. but the right of all eligible citizens to vote is not one of them. the right to vote is the cornerstone of our democracy, the right from which all other rights ultimately flow. ukraine will receive another $150000000.00 in military aid from the u. s. this month. it's a 2nd package of, it's kind from the biden administration, which provided $125000000.00, and $8.00 in march follows an escalation and fighting between ukraine's army and

3:25 am
was a national disgrace and that at the, the pressure to produce high that kill counts backed by president. would you be wise to blame saying that the military should ask for forgiveness as he has done today? by going through that, i mean i sincerely believed that the goal of ending such a degradation of the war with the fog was achievable, but i live with the remorse, the deep regret that during my ministry, many, many mothers, mostly children during this ruthless practice. so many innocent young people should be alive day. this should never have happened from the depths of my soul. i recognize it. and i ask for your forgiveness center say that when he 1st heard rumors about the killings, he did not believe them. but as they became a clear, he did everything in his power to end this practice changing protocols and
