12:05 pm
at the moment is, is, is a those horrific statistics we've heard from the un predicting 98 percent of the population. this country could be in poverty, 18000000 people that rely on humanitarian aid on a daily basis here. and i'm going to start from a population of 38000000. so it's in a dire situation in this country. we know that there have been the beginnings of a convoys coming across from pakistan. we know also that some a jose have been using domestic apple sales, sorry. apples in other cities, places like muslim cerise to try and get aid in. we know that they are ongoing discussions with the us on, on how to increase the amount of a to accelerate it. but of course, there are some very real problems chief of which one could argue is the political situation. here. there are many tale bond officials in this interim government to

12:07 pm
ping to speak with joe biden, and that it was an in depth and extensive strategic communication on issues of common concern. now, where yet to see whether there was any home create outcomes or actions to come out of this phone call. but it is a very positive sign, the relationship between the u. s. and china really has hit an all time low and it started to really worse. and under the administration of former us president donald trump, we have the trade war. and we had the pandemic, and we've had a lot of criticisms around, alleged human rights abuses, been committed by the chinese government and she's young, it's cracked out on democracy and hong kong. it's increasing aggressiveness towards taiwan. and china has not been happy at all with these criticisms, and this relationship had not improved under the current president, under the biden administration. so what we have seen though is this continuing tension and it goes into other areas as well. just this week, we had an incident in the south trying to see where chinese coast guard said that they had to expel a us massage, destroy,
12:08 pm
which was sailing around the mischief reef in the spotlight islands. territory claimed by china, but it's actually disputed territorial so claimed by chinese neighbors. so these tensions are continuing to bubble in the background. now, tough new rules are being rolled out in the united states for workers who refuse a curb at 19 vaccine. they include mandatory vaccinations or testing for some and disciplinary action for others who don't comply, president, job buttons. republican rivals meanwhile are planning legal action in response. she returns he has more now from washington d. c. d v. my fellow americans, joe biden announced a 6 point plan to deal with code 19. what the white house called a puff out of the pandemic. if we implement, i believe, and the scientists indicate that the months ahead, we can reduce the number of on vaccinated americans. decrease has hospitalizations in depth and allow our children to go to school safely and keep our,

our economy strong by keeping businesses open. federal employees will no longer have the option of regular testing instead of vaccination. they and government contracts will have $75.00 days to get vaccinated or face disciplinary action. all 70000000 health care workers work. institutions that receive federal funding will have to be vaccinated. all employers with workforce over $100.00 must ensure their employees are vaccinated or regularly tested will face a $14000.00 fine for each violation. 300000 teachers who take part in federal programs will have to be vaccinated. and the president urge states to insist on facts, native stuff in the schools. in all, it's estimated that up to 2 thirds of the u. s. workforce may be affected by the plan. however, legal and union challenges may delay some of the provisions. the washington post reporter for the us postal service would be exempt from the mandate some 500000 people. but this wasn't just a clinical outline of the administration's aspirations. throughout his address,
12:10 pm
the president tried to be 25 percent of americans who have yet to get vaccinated. over 200000000 americans have gotten at least one shot even patient. but our patients is wearing thin and the refusal has cost all of us whole so that the majority of americans are blaming beyond vaccinated for continuing con demik restrictions. but they also show waning confidence in the president handling of the pandemic. this was a clear attempt to firm up his base and the clear message. it's not my fault. what you heard from president biden today was clearly the growing frustration that we have, the tools we have the science, we have the incentives. and yet we're not seeing necessarily the behavior that we would hope from a large minority of the population an all american summer. but critics contend the biden administration has been confusing the public with its messaging. for example, it was joe biden to announced a summer free of covert in early june and held a large july 4th party at the white house to prove it. just as the delta variant

was taking hold in the country, since that announcement, daily infections have risen by some 300 percent. there is no doubt that more americans have to be vaccinated if the u. s. is to return to any normality but study shows a variety of reasons for vaccine hesitancy. some say it's because of a distrust for the u. s. government that hasn't misled the public so many times in the past. others because of their political hatred of joe biden. it will be interesting to see where the buttons approaching this speech will now win them over to the fax she ever times. the al jazeera washington. while, meanwhile, los angeles has become the 1st major us school district to make vaccinations mandatory for students. those aged 12 and older have until january to get their jobs. that city has had some of the longest school closures anywhere in the country . during this pandemic education officials say they want to stop that from happening again. well now's, and bob way is government is making coven 19 vaccines mandatory for all government

pot too of a special investigation. one when a visitor western astrology is only youth detention center and travels to the remote town where many of the indigenous inmates come from 10 to 0. the taliban has taken control of afghan. 20 years after it was the whole from power the country now facing a new reality. how will that impact the people as events on falls and the world stay with us? the latest news and analysis from us going on now to hear me . ah ah,
12:17 pm
hello again. i'm to sell your home. that's remind you about top stories. the salad i've got on is on the brink of universal poverty. that's the warning from the un development agency. it's calling for urgent efforts to bolster local communities on their economy. president biden has spoken directly to chinese, the decision being for the 1st time and nearly 7 months. a phone conversation was initiated by the us president biden told she both leaders need to ensure competition doesn't via into something. i'm president biden as also now announced mandatory vaccinations, a weekly testing for a large section of the workforce and disciplinary action for those who don't comply . the move comes as kind of in 1900 cases such across the us. a delegation of west african leaders is due in guinea following the crew. then the group from the economic community of west african states who echo us is that to meet the military leaders who overthrew president of con day the expected depress guineas new rulers
12:18 pm
. to set a deadline for returning to a civilian government, the organisation has already suspended guinea and as demanding con days release. well, let's speak to on the address he's in the game and capital can agree for us. on the do we know what's happened to condo now and what's likely to come out of this business? i apologize. there we appear to have lost the audio from annette. we'll try to get them back as soon as we can. but meanwhile, the u. s. government is suing texas after the stage approved to the nations most restrictive abortion law. the legislation contradict decades of legal president bonds, texas politicians have managed to avoid having it struck down so far. john henry, the 4th, the u. s. attorney general says a new texas abortion law violates the constitution 5 decades of legal decisions in
12:19 pm
common sense. the act is clearly unconstitutional under long standing supreme court precedent. so the us justice department is suing to overturn the law which benz abortions in texas. it's 6 weeks before many women even know they're pregnant, texas is so far avoided review by the court, enraging, and pro choice activists. that's because to block a law from going into effect, a plaintive usually has to sue the laws enforcers, say the governor or state attorney general. but the texas law empowers any resident to file a civil again, anyone involved in facilitating an abortion? even a taxi driver. it allows them to collect a $10000.00 bounty from teacher live judge guilty. so until that happens, there's no one to sue to block the case. that was apparently enough for the u. s.
12:20 pm
supreme court, which is declined to overturn the law. this leaves women in texas unable to exercise their constitutional rights and unable to obtain judicial review at the very moment they need it. this kind of scheme to nullify the constitution of the united states is one that all americans, whatever their politics or party should fear. the law clearly contradicts the supreme court. 1973 decision in roe vs wade, which found that a woman has the right to an abortion until the fetus is viable outside the womb. usually about 24 weeks. sort of creates a vigilante system where people get rewards to go out to you. it just seems, i know this sounds ridiculous, almost america process. kevin,
12:21 pm
greg abbott, defend the law which makes no exception for cases of rape. so goal number one in the state of texas is to eliminate rape so that no woman, no person will be a victim of right. but in it. but in addition to that, we do want to make sure that we provide support for those who are victims of rape with other states now considering copycat laws. the u. s. suit seeks to force the supreme court to act the right of women to make decisions about their own body is not negotiable. the right of women to make decisions about their own body is their decision. it is their body with the texas law in full force until the court at a woman's rights in the us, depend on where he lives. john, hindrance al jazeera. well, let's now go back to that military through and guinea and its implications for the country and the region. we can now again speak to on the address he is in the
12:22 pm
canadian capital con. agree on that, i was asking you earlier, do we know what's happened to former president of a condo now and what to like you to come out of this echo last visit? well, basically, when our condo was overthrown, he was kept in a hotel, cold hotel salumi in the center of corner cree. now he's been moved to another location and military god we expect when the military, when the course mission arrives here, that will insistent seen mister condit, just as was the case in molly, but in the military. yeah, i'm trying also to copy the money script last year when president what kind of cater was overthrown. and they used to me as a bargaining chip, although of course did not impose sanctions immediately on guinea. the 3 are here, if that they well, and the military will try to extract as much concessions as they can use in mr. condo. that's the feeling here. on the other hand, the military will the course commission will arrive mid them a new military rule us. yeah,
12:23 pm
civil society organizations and of course the opposition which in the past, especially last year, what angry that was to bobby deposed president when he was trying to tweak the constitution dreadful at that time. so that's the situation right now. we expect the course delegation to arrive in the next one hour or 2. well, i'm at. i see in the meantime, the military leaders of all, so frozen government bank accounts. how's that all playing out across the country? exactly. it's not only government accounts or ministries, departments, and other agencies have governments accounts that have been frozen by the military following the announcement yesterday. even the account of the post pressed and con day has been falls. and remember, earlier in the 1st days of the call, there was a meeting between the military leaders as well as for my senior official of the con, the government, where they met in the center of the city. and doug, point that meeting point to the military rule,
12:24 pm
as you seized passports of those officials and also banned them from traveling out of the country. remember, one of the key reasons they gave for the overthrow of mister comedy is that there's been monumental corruption in this country. and the government resources have been stolen by ministers. and they want to put a stop to that. and that's probably informed decision to freeze all government accounts, by the way, the money activities have continued. economic activities are progressing quickly. now the question is, why will the money is due to the government from this mining companies and they can make active, it is going to, well, the money is be stopped for now until when everything is salted or they will continue to flow into government coffers. very interesting indeed, i'm address then again a and capital for us with all the lessons. thank you. i'm and protesters in columbia demanding justice for those killed by police and street protests there. one year ago, the september 9th victims group one charges to be brought against the police officers who killed 12 young demonstrations in boca time. the colombian government
