i my, my just spectrum is on the cannot, the, my judy are women are strong with my, my dear on out there. ah, ah, holding the powerful to account as we examine the us this role in the world on al jazeera. i me this is al jazeera ah hello, i'm about this and this is a new song, live from doha, coming up in the next 60 minutes. lebanon's new prime minister holds back tears as he pledges to stabilize the worst economic crisis in decades. can max the by ministrations,

vaccine mandates box of political storm in the united states with republicans. so i think legal action african regional heads arrive in guinea for total leaders of the recent to demanding the release of the president. i'm elizabeth moran. them in the indian state of ortho for they were health officials are trying to manage a deadly outbreak of a fever. i'm joining israel sco with have 2 teenage tennis. so take the us from by dorm, and we're right in layla financial advice opposites and new york to reach the women's final action coming up like this, our ah, talk to 13 months of political grid lock, lebanon has a new government billionaire business. lindsey mccarty will have the cabinet. lebanon has been without a functioning government since last year's bay route port explosion, because he has pledged to stabilize the economic meltdown to began more than 2

years ago. i don't know how to help me. i hope that we can bring our country back on its feet. i hope that this government will be able to function and at least put an end to the pleading. and we can all come together as one hand to bring back 11 on its feet proud and prosperous. then harder has more from beirut on the challenges facing the new leadership. well, some new faces, other familiar faces, but bottom line is this. the political parties that have governing this country for the past few decades. those who have been blamed for really running the economy into the grounds, blame for corruption. they are the ones who appointed these men and one women in this new cabinet. so people really have little faith that they're going to see any change prime minister me at the showing empathy with the people saying that he understands mothers cannot find milk for their children. fathers cannot send their

kids to school. he understands the situation, but he's part of this system. a system that people believe should be changed. we didn't hear him talk about fighting corruption because this is what needs to be done. they need to fight corruption. they need to agree to reform, state institutions. they need to agree to restructure the financial sector. the finance minister is a former official in the central bank. the central bank is blamed really for bad policies that lead to this economic collapse. so people are skeptical, but there are some good signs. the dollar, for example, the local currency, again, some value against the dollar. it was trading this morning at $900000.00 earlier as against the dollar. it is now about 151-6000 lire. but the bottom line is this, in the next few days, subsidies are going to be listed. people salaries are near work list. people just cannot make and meet the minimum wages now worth $35.00. so what is he going to do?

he is promising a rescue plan, but what people want to see is, you know, what is the stress to plan? robbins government has a handful of new comers and technical experts hoping to distance the cabinet from establishment politicians associated with corruption, the new finance minutes. the use of hollywood is a senior central bank official and the health minister fit us ob yet is the manager of lebanon's largest public hospital. 5 minutes in mccarty, hopes the cabinet can convince the international community that it is serious about tackling corruption and restart. bailout talks with the international monetary fund . the country is suffering its worst economic crisis. the lebanese pound is lost, 90 percent of its value in the past 2 years. now let's bring in bush auto ha, be in the stumble. he's a middle east and north africa senior geopolitical analyst for clipper data. it's a commodities intelligence from good to have with us on august here. i wanna ask you about the timing of this. first of all, given the fact that the prime, the new prime minister only find out he was getting the job back in july. i was he

able to pull together this disparate group of people or seemingly disparate group of people when it was seemingly impossible over the several months previously. well, the human ability to actually form a government kind of signals and the massive if you want a crisis that, that have been used political system was facing over the past 2 years or so. and why am i saying that? because the main, sidney leader, according to the beneath power sharing arrangement in the country, is actually sudden, had to and not as you've got the you precise over the largest parliamentary block. however, we know that in 2016 there was a deal cut, and it's doug as the presidential the in between mission on the current increments . president and ex prime minister started had 80 this in agreement entails that mission on becomes president is elected. and heidi is set to foreign governments during sharon's mandate until further notice or until the next elections,

which is set to take place and 2022. however, the october 21, 900 uprising and changed the calculations i had at the time was forced to resign. and also this is when the major structure and phishers started appearing between sudden had eating and misha owens and political picketing commenced. and a year later, once on how it was re appointed as a prime minister designate in order to form a government. he failed because the point of the world had been poisoned between him and between mitchell i was now with the problem in the country regardless of the economic situation. it's actually a particular situation. it's actually about that opinions constitution. and it's actually about the, the beneath sharing arrangement. we know that the main slogan that sharon has waved his particular carrier since 988 up until today that is duration of the christian rights and love. and on what does that mean?

he, it means basically that mission on once the mass, more and more words in the hands of the been, he's president because by convention this president has to be christian, according to that beneath national and this is why the main enemy and the po for the president was seemed to be how do you the previous the and we can from that perspective, from a constitutional one we can see why the crisis randy between both parties failed to fail to actually form a government which by the way and it's formation and, and it's constituent he's that not very much that re a lot from the current formation by presented by an as you'd mccarty. let me ask you about that because one of the concerns that people are already talking about is the fact that although some of the faces may well have changes, we were talking about just a moment ago. generally speaking, there's a lot of representation from, from political groups who have already been there, and people in lebanon already saying,

nothing has changed. these parties are the ones who are responsible for this problem in the 1st place. let me ask you this, the key thing, since i had to take the point about the constitutional side and you can make terms, the country has no money, it desperately needs cash. what is the risk that this is a government that is being pulled together to try to prove to the rest of the world that it is able to, to get access to the funds that it needs by saying, we're going to deal with corruption. we're going to restructure the financial system and so on. but all of that's going to get kicked down the road as soon as the cash comes in. absolutely, i mean, to start with just the names that were mentioned by your reporter in bainbridge, or by your introduction sir, are enough to signal lack of trust in the newly formed government. and of course, it would be very accurate to say that this is simply a recycling of the of any secretary enrolling elite and the country. we have new

front mens now we have new representatives. but everyone from the sectarian ruling park, it's literally represented and discovered, does this mean that real reforms will be implemented and inactive id? i really doubt so, especially that the main ministers that are represented and this government are also actually ad guardians of the tensile anyway of the been needs a political system in general. whether it is the finance minister or whether it's other ministers that are definitely playing at all as it simply frontman for the main leaders of the country. however, the main crisis and the main problem that this, that the different constituencies of the system was facing over the past few months or more accurately. since the beta port explosion is doc international donor money and loans in general or donation. we're starting to be channeled through that have been ease at the society and the service provider organizations in general. and

this was a major red flag for the different constituencies. and this is why over the past few months, we've heard the main leaders of the succeeding parties back into civil society and attack flight and funding. and i talked the new and movement are new groups that emerged after october 2019 and uprising. so the idea was given that the economic crisis has, does a major blow to the popularity of the secretary and ruling lead. there was a need to form a government in order to re legitimize the system anyway. and in order to channel, to talk with the international community and to china, at least for an aide, and doing a since through the government as well, in order to control the sources of donations and money and 8 instead of the civil society empowering itself and preparing it's also for the parliamentary elections, which is supposedly set to happen in may 2022 by hello. we appreciate your time. so thank you very much indeed. thank you. in the us,

the republican party's planning legal action against the bible ministration for rolling out a tough new rules. and vaccinations may include mandatory jobs or testing for some and disciplinary action. for those who don't comply, it'll affect as many as 100000000 people. she harbor time, she has more from washington, d. c. d v. my fellow americans, joe biden announced a 6 point plan to deal with covered 19. well, 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 unvaccinated americans decrease, has hospitalizations in depth and allow our children to go to school safely and keep 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 is 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 their schools, in all its estimated 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, the president tried of the 25 percent of americans who have yet to get vaccinated. over 200000000 americans have gotten at least one shot feel impatient. but our patience 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 a 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 has misled the public so many times in the past. others because of that political hatred of joe biden. it will be interesting to see where the button's approach this speech will now win them over kept backs. she ebert mc al jazeera washington. all this angeles has become the 1st major us school district to make vaccinations mandatory for students. those age 12 and above have until january to get their jobs. the city had some of the longest school closures during the pandemic. education officials say they want to stop that from happening again. well, let's speak to our white house correspondent, kimberly hall in washington, d. c. so we got strong statements from jo bye, but almost immediately pushed back as well. yeah, there's no question that those that have felt for a while, but this is a choice, not something that government should dictate are already preparing their legal challenges. there are millions of americans that are still unvaccinated,

roughly 80000000, and many of them are conservative. they're living conservative states and feel that joe biden has gone too far. this time. they feel that he has overstepped to the constitutional authority of president. and as a result, are really putting in place already legal challenges and the feeling is, is that particularly when it comes to the private workplace, not the public sector, which would be the federal government. this is where the president has perhaps, to overstep his authorities. now, we do know that there have been some precedent already where the bi magenta has had pushed back of the supreme court level with regard to the mandatory, sort of making sure that people stay in their homes and can't be evicted due to the pandemic. and not having to pay rent, which many argue is hurt disproportionately landlords that are not making the money that they say they deserve. so we're going to have to watch carefully to see what

these legal challenges go. but the bottom line is, there are already many conservatives in this country that are digging in their heels and they're saying, look at not only are we going to challenge this legally, but what we're telling others is do not comply. in other words, they're encouraging civil disobedience. one would imagine that policing, this is going to be a problem because there are threats, of course, for companies to be fined. if some of their, if they some of their stuff don't get vaccinated, then so on the, a variety of different things. but actually enforcing that particularly i thought the local level is going to be extremely difficult. one would imagine that could equally slow down the whole process of the role. i, particularly if there are legal processes that you're talking about being put in place. yeah. and that is the frustration not just for conservative, but also for liberals in the united states or democrats. their feeling is that the president should have done this a long time ago that this is too little too late. as we see,

the numbers of covered 900 searching due to the delta various and we expect that this virus will continue to mutate, that these sort of heavy handed measures should have been in place much earlier. so that's the frustration from the president supporters that it's going to take so long to implement this is likely to be legally challenged, but this should have been worked out much sooner is going to have very little impact. so it doesn't appear that the president is really satisfying any one right now. and the other been criticism is that he was supposed to come in and promised to be this united or after a very device of 4 years under donald trump. but what many critics are saying is that he's doubled down on divisions and even vilified those that he should be trying to bring on board in terms of trying to convince them to get back to native . kimberly, thanks very much indeed. that's kimberly hall. good. talking to us from washington, dc. tony motor had on the news are including afghanistan on the brink of the universal poverty be un development agency issues. a stock warning solve those

president retires. a 3rd of a country judge is driving the routing out corruption or cementing his own power. counting down to run out of manchester, united return. joe's going to have all the details later in sport. ah, i remember sammy has been held at the pentagon to honor the victims of the 911 attacks saturday, march 20 years since attack has few planes into the world trade center in new york and the pentagon. in virginia, nearly 3000 people were killed. us secretary of state and we been can paid tribute to the victims and their families in a separate ceremony held in washington dc. some members of our community, last family and friends, that they are hard to go out to. all of you. every one of those losses sent

ripples that radiated outward the stories of those who died. we were told around the world restaurant workers on breakfast, kids flying to disney land, firefighters and police officers, who, as we all know, ran into the building after the plains hit. people for more than 90 countries lost their lives that day. i've got a fan could be less than a year away from a 98 percent poverty rates. that's the stock warning from the un development agency as it calls for urgent efforts to bolster communities and the economy. it says there's the risk of a total breakdown without international health to keep money flowing in christian salumi reports from the united nations. the security council began its day at the $911.00 memorial us organized event included, a tour of the museum documenting the attacks and served as a reminder of the horrors that led to us to invade afghanistan. but the

international community is now dealing with an afghan, a stand without the united states being governed by the taliban. many of whose members are on a global terror watch list. the head of the u. s. assistance mission in afghan. a stand pointed out that will require some uncomfortable choices. billions of assets and dollar and donor funds have been frozen by members of the international community. the understandable purpose is to not is to deny these funds to the de facto taliban administration. inevitable effect, however, will be a severe economic downturn that could throw many more millions into poverty and hunger. may generate a massive wave of refugees from afghanistan. and indeed, set up get a stand back for generations. pointing out that the leaders of the new in term government remain under international sanctions. she stressed the importance of the

un and delivering aid, and also ensuring human rights, particularly for african women and girls. noble laureate malala use of sy reminded the council that education is a universal human rights. are united security council. speaking with one voice, vegetation can compel the thought live on to make a confession. this is vital and not only for women and get them. so what for long don't security in the region and know what the cow hollow is currently reviewing the u. s. future role in the country. the mandate for the us assistance mission in afghanistan expires in just a week. while council members debate the mandates renewal, they'll be grappling with matters of life and death including human rights, humanitarian access and the protection of civilians including women and girls. christian salumi al jazeera, the united nations charter plane has taken off from,

i've kind of stands cobble airport. the 2nd flight since evacuations ended last week because they always play me left with passengers out in the delivering aid on thursday. more than 100 people were on board the 1st flight to doha. the flights are being seen as a step forward and coordination between the united states and i found the stones lose. a delegation from the west african economic block. it was in guinea meeting, qu, leaders, they're demanding the president off a candidate should be released and a civilian government restored african union has become the latest regional block to suspend guinea, following sundays. qu, they use says it'll exclude guinea from its decision making bodies. will lead to speak to an address in the getting and capital consecrate. there was a meeting that was going on in the last few hours. do we know any more about what's come out of that? when rob basically meeting apparently and just 2 minutes ago, the convoy of colonel and military officers escorted him into the venue of the

meeting in the building behind me was of course officious. has just ended, it lasted last about an hour or so. says the arrival of the course team. we couldn't gain access into the meeting whole. the military was strict preventing, generally from going in. and when doing way i came in. they also were trying to stop people from accessing the whole and even taking pictures. however, the way i came out of the meeting without saying i was just the way he came and he drove in in an armored personnel carrier, probably signs of the times. yeah. but he loved to be echo is delegation in there, continuing that dental braces. they didn't say what exactly it was discussed, but we know and understand that issues of stages the return to constitutional order . 2 the release of depos president on for conduct as well as meeting with stakeholders like the civil society in this country,

the opposition leaders and all. so it's under intense pressure, like you said in the introduction from both from home and abroad. basically the you want the echoes pressurizing him for a quick return to constitution order on, on the domestic front. a guinea is looking for a quick fix to that can make and social problems as well as security. and thanks very much indeed that sound that address and to get in capital a kind of cream. let's take a closer look at some of the biggest challenges vehicle was, has faced. the group 1st showed a willingness to confront d, stabilizing governments in 1990. when a deployed 3000 troops to liberia, to end the civil war, and how long, st. free and fair elections? in december 2016 echo was organized talks to persuade gumby in president ja ja janice to stop down after he refused to admit he lost the election. the blog threats and military action which eventually led to some as exit. in october, last year, echo was helped mediate molly's transitional government after

a military coup when the government was overthrown. 8 months later, the block suspended money's membership, but it did not impose sanctions. well, let's speak to adama gate and casablanca. he's a former information director for echo was thank you very much indeed for being with us or on i'll just 0. 1 gets the impression even from that brief timeline that the attitude of echo was to dealing with with tough situations is changing somewhat . initially. it was prepared to take very tough action, and now it seems to be stepping in only after people are either on the streets, all the has been a crew. why is that? because they have been sleeping, or do we use of the organization instead of really be brought div addressing the challenge each inside its members. 15 members think they have been really artisans with those. what has been breaking the nose within their countries

conveyed to what i, you know, could you, what are you in phil mucky feller and be a regular be less than me expecting disrespecting the rules are broke. all those problems at the end of the b. b to the issue where she and somehow it was, is coming like what we said in french met up in a whole doctor after that in which case all we reaching a point that there are going to be serious questions asked about the future of echo was whether it actually functions in the way that it was originally intended to part of which of course was the defense of democracy within african countries in african member member states. we're reaching a point where echo was should goal and something else. if needed, should be put in place. i don't think it will go away anytime soon because it is a powerful brand. don't really regional organization. when you talk integration

organization in africa, what comes to mind? you sickle us and maybe to call us as middle name? 40 because it has to be one of the best institutions in africa, decided to wage into the peace process, fixing corporate africa record, and not united. when they did the 1st piece approaches in liberia, it was the time when the world was content with the good crises generated by invasion on august 2nd, 1990. 0 wait. bill. african countries realize that we the end of the week if they don't think they have problems, they will not be any, but it went out and what made it easy for you just because of that. but generally, i don't think it was what creative is making organization in 1975,

not me. when it was created before in the midst of the world, the countries that made us could get up from synagogue nigeria deal or not, or in the thing because they were companies other than capitalist. so they couldn't agree on political. i don't want to interrupt you because i want to ask you about one key element of this. if the changes are not going to come from within, it was but as you say, echo was, itself is a significant brand. what is the tipping point? do you think at which echo was, is going to realize that it has to change the way that it is reacting to these situations and it has to reform in order to live up to the ideals it originally was formed under ok. i recall the cost was a particularly obligation for the economy in addition to promote economic development in west africa that was on the basis on which they can agree. now that

he's, that many of the people in west africa yearning for governance wrote us. but on the piece of the community, we know order is going around in west africa, terrorism viruses, you trafficking and other challenges, including most the respect of law and demo. no, that's the big problem. you know, it was during this time, the nice would say they want to work and the vision you 50 bed frame to promote a new what would be a nickel, one of the people and it was of the stage, but you really rather the action at the end of the, the you won't be up because of the coming like an indian is what it says, live pretty bill of duties in order to poll their peers,

leaders who have been numbers, but to horrible. so what do we have? you know, when last year in october, when i was going to get to getting hundreds of people who were given the entity. so it doesn't make sense for us to come out and try to get in what they should do because even next door money day. but truck, they ended up realizing that they're moving, gone, and the end of the, the if you go, because you report, i mentioned the african union. how come the african union? one to both. it says 2 countries like mother you or when the chairman of up you can use me, the fucking was that we checked, it was so sucked when, who was up to do this in a for the late so definitely questions of course that we're going to be asking in the coming weeks.
