1:30 pm
he wants me to even use a reminder about top stories today. dangerous and desperate scenes are unfolding at cobble airport. the huge numbers of people are trying to leave off to the taliban to go over the country. video from the airport shows crowds running alongside of us military aircraft, some even clean on the sides of the airplane. the ton of power late on sunday nights gathering cobbles, presidential palaces fighters rolled up the national flag and posed for pictures was earlier. president dani fled the country events and going to sons and sent shock waves around the world, especially in the united states military companies. 20 years pressure is mounting on politicians to explain how the country fell and fell so quickly. let's talk again to her room ra, haney, assistant professor of law at the american university of afghanistan. he joins us on skype from istanbul. harun good to talk to you again. what do you make of those scenes at the airport today? just chaos and panic. the fear of unknown,
1:31 pm
the uncertainty of what the future holds despite the call about amnesty and other people do not. don't seem to believe those promises. also, there's a very chaotic situation. americans are in the control in control of the airport taliban were large port have left the airport on its own, possibly true a deal made by with the united states government. this created a situation where anyone who wants to go to the airports can and just in face the americans there. and you can imagine it to be 10 choice. and a lot of people have blame americans for abandoning them. so coming face to face with the american protest at the airport, we're trying to secure the evacuation is a very tuition and that's why the that, that what explain the possible civilian debt that might be caused by it. i think what is needed at this point is just order on should coordinate with the american to set up the perimeters outside of it or to control access to the airport
1:32 pm
. if anyone who wants to can get to the term, i just going to turn, we just going to be more chaos. and this is not something that is going to end. well, is it possible that what we're seeing at the airport is a microcosm of what could happen across the entire country or to put it another way? do you think the taliban can bring order? not by using its road of control as it has used in the past, but behaving like a government. i mean, i'm most part of the countries are secure. i don't have knowledge if they let me just narrow my statements i, i talk to people who are all the trouble and they move the day to age and around them is relatively calm and some people are going back to normal life. there are some looters, there are some people who are attending to be tele. bond also taught about who are
1:33 pm
building some government officials, military and civilian, ostensibly asking them to hand over guns and cars. but also there could be turn, what are happening in airport is unique because they tell about how long. so they're not, they don't, they said they have not secured. they said that they are not going to be cured airport. they're not going to report offensively because they have a deal with the americans. just let the americans control the airport in terms of the weather over time, there's going to be more chaos. will choose to use, of course, to call that chaos. ordeal will be using more regular rule of law institutions and other measures of competence building kinds of combinations and to meet to be seen . but overall, what we call the airport is not what's happening around the country. most of it is just due to the fact that we have the airport to the american americans are just coming face to face with one to a matter of them. and one to get out because they are panic,
1:34 pm
they are afraid of what's gonna happen to the state. and they are afraid if they thought about the american leave, maybe had it over to the tell about. and then if they are, they are afraid of what they would be like to talk about would not let them lead. okay. they are kind of controlled the line of orders. obviously her and there is a difference between controlling a country and running a country. nobody is born into the taliban. you don't grow up just being a member of the taliban. the taliban must be made up of coach, ordinary afghans, doctors, accountants, teachers, university lecturers. people who in a parish universe would be quotes ordinary people, as i say. so does the taliban have the wherewithal to run the country from a financial point to because 75 percent of the economy of your country essentially is foreign aid. it's fiscal foreign aid. that's absolutely a concern. there are many pieces to one is the fact that no government in apartment
1:35 pm
3 has been able to function without or an assist the taller but also have before and but they might have been more or less became sustaining towards the end. but they are more not delivering services in the controlled, the government, funded by united states and other countries, was delivering services education, helping salary, the student and adopters and everything else. now they're going to be the government, who's going to fund the, where does the money come from? that's an issue that needs to be answered and it could depend on what country maintain relationship, how the country's going to be. the other country is also the issue. just it's killed does know how to run a government so far that the 1000000000 government employees should continue their work. they have put in place their people. busy at the top of many civilian institutions, but they kept the body of the government. but that is just what they want to do. i don't know people to not work because of the fear they have. but also,
1:36 pm
you have to keep in mind that people want salaries, who's going to pay for the salary, the economy, and obviously is disrupted for funds are unclear. where would they come from? they were going to have to see tough times ahead. i don't think i'll have at least a raise to the occasion yet. there is going to be in many government offices and i'm afraid the service is gonna be trust. the people are not going to be paid. it's going to be consequences beyond just law and order. okay, we'll talk again. i'm sure her and thank you so much. have room me the talking to us from a stumble, moving on malaise. he is prime minister me at in your scene has handed in his resignation, the king and a televised address. he said he's stepping down because he lost his majority in the parliament, but he won't be leaving office straight away. florence louis joyce live now from qualon to florence. this feels or sounds like an an old one. what happens next?
1:37 pm
well, he's going to stay in on in power as can take a prime minister until a successor is appointed. now under malaysia constitution, the king will appoint a person he thinks is likely to command the confidence of the majority in parliament. but at the moment there is no individual, no party, no coalition, that is an obvious success at them can come forward at this point in time and say, yes, we have the numbers to form the majority in parliament. and some analysts are saying that this could take possibly weeks even for a success to be appointed. now the palace in a statement released on monday also said an election is just not an option at this time because nearly 80 percent of parliamentary constituencies in the country are in corona virus read 7. so an election is out of view, is not an option at the moment. now in the meantime, political uncertainty is probably going to drag on in malaysia. and then the
1:38 pm
question now is, what will happen to the economy? what will happen to the countries plans to curb to search of krona virus cases malaysia, the moment is dealing with really high number of current of eyes infections and kona virus death is one of the highest in the region. it sounds like we're heading into a period of months of political and therefore financial uncertainty. that's right. and so it's really important for a successor to be appointed as soon as possible. but there aren't really very many . i mean, there's no obvious answer at the moment. annoy bro, him the opposition leader certainly will try and jostle for the top position. but he doesn't that the moment, even with his coalition of 3 parties, he doesn't at the moment, have the numbers. so some enters the saying, we're likely to see new alliances being formed. and we don't know what that's going
1:39 pm
to look like at the moment now, but at the same time, i think some of the saying that what's going to happen, what could happen is it could really mean that a politician from, i'm know, and that's the united malays national organization could come back into power as the prime minister of malaysia. now if you remember, this is a party that had rules malaysia for decades, and it was voted out in 2018 because of a corruption scandal in a state investment fund. but we didn't, yes. and when he came into power last year, he had aligned himself with no. and in that, in doing so, he had brought no back into power. and now i'm no, i'm stronger than ever position to even take back the position of premiership in malaysia. florence many thanks. florence louis the talking to us live from color that he saw palestinians had been killed during an operation by israeli forces in
1:40 pm

1:41 pm
leaving 4 men at least 4 men dead. janine has become a flashpoint, it's a place where palestinian resistance to the israeli occupation often turns violent . the large refugee camp there has many people who have weapons and there are members of groups such as hamas. earlier this month, another palestinian was killed during a similar raid in geneva. turkey's defense ministry says 4 of his soldiers have been killed by explosives in northern iraq. the blasts in the hook province wounded . 2 other soldiers. turkeys military blamed the attacks on kurdish arm groups. official say, troops were carrying out cross border operations. the death toll from saturday's powerful earthquake in haiti has now jumped to nearly 1300 rescue teams of digging through trouble in a desperate search for survivors. the under growing pressure as a tropical storm gets close, thousands of people are injured,
1:42 pm
leaving the hospitals. overwhelmed? are really these. i want to tell the population that we are going through a difficult situation. this is the moment to unite to have a greater national unity, a greater solidarity with the victims. let's forget our quarrels and come to the 8 of those in difficulty. at m, you is an economist and professor at the keys, car university importer prince. he says, strong leadership is critical for a t right now or you can to, to, to earthquake. and those 40 coordinates stability very difficult. we, i mean the haitian people really need to break and why we think is good time for us to really ring, you know, better leadership, you know, people back can really make good planning and also raise a wireless. and then in the preparedness of the country, you know, you can prove with those exhaustive who happen to prepare that that can
1:43 pm
help you to minimize the damage even before the disaster the economy was terrible. actually to using the roll was negative, come into grow and was around 40 percent of the population in for insecurity lack of jobs and other people leave the current be leaving the country for the last 2 years. i because of the games activity. so it's going to be more difficult in the south. but if we, you know, make sure that this time, we're only going to do many quickness firms that are going to build capacity, trend people, and then give them the resources created to type business. give
1:44 pm
love, i couldn't make activity that could be different. does that celebrations in zambia, where the opposition leader candy had sure lemme has been declared the winner of last week's presidential election. the tycoon successfully campaigned on using his business, experienced the sent around a struggling economy, or a transfer has more for us from the soccer di they will worth a damn be an opposition, need a hug i in the heat. lemme has waited years to hear what they said, his m to be a president, the leg on the republic of zambia, his defeat of incumbent, president edgar longer came when 6 try for the top office and support his are ecstatic. i the candidates when an outright majority wouldn't move,
1:45 pm
which means there will be no one. but now the door to the task of turning around the economy begin. this country has got a lot of challenges. the challenges wish to be, and people in their collective wisdom have decided to lump on the show does of this one man. but we must be quick to say that this one man is equal to the task that was more than $12000000000.00 to external companies. and linda's, the high cost of living, rising unemployment, and poverty will be concerned for vote as president. it is promising to turn around the economy, saying he can attract investment, tax and corruption. the majority of registered voters will young people and they turned out on election day. and in some areas, the tunnel was even higher,
1:46 pm
90 percent. and this is really a cry out by the people of them that they want to be noted. they don't want to be sidelined by any government prisoners, london. so the legend was not free and fee off incidents of violence against the ruling. patriotic fine party agents in 3 provinces. he's the limit supporters reject that. they want the president elect, sworn into office as soon as possible, hot water or desert the southern. ok, let's bring in spanish and i do senior research fellow at the institute for global dialogue, a south african thinktank. joining us on skype from cape times. anderson, i do welcome to the news on such a big turnouts, almost 90 percent in certain regions in areas. what does that tell us about the demographic and also about younger people's enthusiasm for change and real change? a good day, peter. i think it tells us that young people are hungry for change. i think they, they really feel that the time has come to turn the tide in many african countries
1:47 pm
because the youth dividend across the continent is really quite a powerful factor. and right now i think young people are voicing that concern that the older generation, the 1st or 2nd generation of leaders that have been in power, post the post colonial state and post colonialism issues. i no longer make a veritable change in their life. i mean, unemployment not just in m b, i think across the country to take my country for example, but africa, the youth unemployment is so massive, over the 60 percent 65 percent off. so i think as the end of the day, when you look at them via has done with young people coming out to vote for a young president elect, 59 years old, who has the business acumen. he has an m, b, a from the university of birmingham in the u. k. who is been given the tough, the daunting task, and challenge of turning around the economy, particularly creating jobs not just for, for people across the divide,
1:48 pm
but for young people who can feel confident that their economies, when to change their, their livelihoods in life. how does he turn around the economy? how does he reposition it? because you can clearly one should never try to spend your way out of massive debt like that or borrow your way out of massive debt like that. it's never worked. it never will work. but when we were on the election campaign trail, people were saying to our crew on the ground, day after day. look, it's very nice having a fantastic road system. but if health care doesn't work and education doesn't work, what the government therefore i think the real challenge for the president he left is trying to make sure that the debt that them has wrapped up around about 12000000000. if not more, that is basically dependent on a single commodity, which is copper. and right now the depressed the previous depressed couple prices in terms of commodities was a real drag on the economy. it wasn't invested in the kind of human development
1:49 pm
initiatives in health care, in the provision of education in the h d and the human development initiatives that were really book the economy because we got to see the economy, not just about market. it is about the fact that there is a symbiotic relationship between health care, within education, within the sanitation water. just the idea is that exist within an economy and the social economy. and i think that's what the biggest challenge is going to be for the president is how does he get out of that depth trap that they've, that, that'd be, it has gotten itself into. it's one of the close concrete in the pandemic to default on a, on, on his debt. and i think really it's about understanding that the commodity boom and, and boom and bust cycles that we see in the commodity prices is something that is sustainable. but i think it's also about creating a community of an economic development model. moving up, entrepreneurs on the ground was to find the economy,
1:50 pm
making sure that the economy is open to small, medium businesses, the key things because a lot with a lot of the countries that are resource dependent suffer from the kind of then seeking that we saw with corruption, the this investment or the divestment of the money from the country, into offshore cars, and just blatant capture of particular industries and production. sanisha great to get your thoughts on that developing story of them. we do appreciate your time joining us here on the usa. so it's come here on the news for you golf pga tour event in north carolina comes down to a record equaling 6 man. cleo joe will tell you who came out on top in sports when we come back a
