she ping didn't address the u. s. ad on he did say his nation would never seek hedge money or bully, others are diplomatic editor james base reports from the united nations. please, thank you'll. this is gathering of world leaders started on a some, but note the un secretary general highlighting the growing less to global problems, covered 19 the climate crisis and conflicts. all of them he said, getting worse. i'm here to songs the alarm. the world must wake up. we are on the hedge of an obese and moving in the wrong direction. our world has never been more threatened, or more divided. we faced the greatest cascade of crisis in our lifetimes. this was the 1st un general assembly, attended by president joe biden, speaking just weeks after the taliban take over and cobble a war that in effect led to a u. s. defeat. he laid out his strategy on future

u. s. military involvement. u. s. military power must be our tool of last resort, not our 1st should not be used as an answer to every problem we see around the world. we've ended 20 years of conflict gas than and as we close this period of relentless war, we're opening a new air of letters, diplomacy, of using the power of our development aid to invest in new ways of looking people up around the world. as he spoke, there was just one mid level french diplomat listening france incense file straight is decision to buy nuclear submarine technology from the u. s. and the u. k. after his speech biden met with australia's prime minister scott morrison saying the u. s . had no closer or more reliable ally in his speech, president biden didn't speak much about the way forward in afghanistan on wednesday,

the foreign ministers of the g 20 group of countries, and then the 5 permanent members of the security council. therefore, ministers will discuss how to deal with the taliban. the reality though, the international community has very limited leverage on the new rulers in cobble james base al jazeera at the united nations. so let's speak now to mike hannah, his live at the united nations mike. so chinese president, she's in ping said that china wouldn't invade in a country, and the disputes should be settled through dialogue. this is a very moderated speech from the chinese president, wasn't it wasn't d that was very restrained, given the rhetoric that had come out of china in the wake of that alliance, being signed by the u. s. the u. k. and australia. at that particular time, there been calls that this was a sign of a cold war mentality at imperial type of frame of reference. but the

chinese president stayed away from any direct attack on the us and its allies, rather counting china as a country that was seeking global co operation. that was looking at multilateralism . that was seeking to help under developed countries and developing countries in terms of providing coven vaccines. so very much, a very restrained speech by the chinese president, particularly in terms of relations with the u. s. no direct criticism, despite the fact that this was expected in the wake of that a deal go, you go up the differences and problems among countries. hotly, avoidable need to be handled through dialogue and cooperation on the basis of equality and mutual respect. one country says he does not have to mean another country's failure and well is big enough to accommodate common development and progress of all countries. we need to pursue dialogue and inclusiveness

over confrontation and exclusion. and mike, let us talk about joe biden. he call for unity amid recent pensions with allies was his speech likely to reassure america's friends after 4 years of donald trump's america 1st isolation is policies. well, that is very much what president biden was hoping. he stressed that the us had a new domestic and a global policy that it was interested in engaging with its allies and even with its enemies. he painted his administration as seeking a new diplomatic order or a rebuilding of the order that existed before the trump era. but at the same time, the way could fall out over that out could feel between australia, the u. k. and the u. s. is still having massive ramifications on the fringes here. you and ga,

the french remain absolutely furious. the you have criticized it. president biden, trying to push back against the criticism against allegations that us as operating on a unilateral basis in terms of closing on that particular deal. he's been trying to push back in, not he did it in his speech, but at the same time this disability involved, he had a meeting with the australian prime minister in the course of the day. and then back in d. c. had a meeting with the british prime minister. so this once again awakes up, the criticism that had been rampant about the us taking unilateral action with some allies while extruding others from very important diplomatic decisions. all right, so my common life is there at the un in new york. mike, thank you. the taliban as asked to address were leaders that the un general assembly this week. reuters news agencies reporting the doha based spokesman sales . shaheen has been named as the african ambassador to the united nations. the

request was made in a letter to us 2nd general antonio attended on monday. the african invoice is contested by do i fax i, a representative of again, it's down, government ousted last month. a 9 member credentials committee, including members from the us, china and russia. when meet to decide who to accept the countries un about us going forward. well the us 2nd to general and many well leaders called on the international community to protect the rights of women and girls. enough again, it's done while meetings and side events in new york discuss gender equality. there are signs those rights are being reduced on the taliban. rule to zeros, christian salumi has more. the caliban has replaced the women's affairs ministry in afghanistan with what it calls the guardians of vice. and virtue and young women have been ordered to stay home from school, at least for now. but some are taken to the streets in protest, while others are appearing virtually at the united nations to sound the alarm. telling any world leader who will listen not to be fooled by the taliban promises

to respect women's rights. yesterday the taliban band woman from working except they can clean bathrooms, fema, back to day. day ban goes from going to school. and tomorrow they were trying to shut down the internet the you and has demanded women be allowed to deliver humanitarian aid in the country to capitalize on the taliban call for international assistance. but the high commissioner for human rights as women are being progressively excluded from the public sphere that prohibit that some appealing in public spaces without the male garden. in numerous professional effects, those women faced increasing restrictions. today go over the age of 12 have in effect, been prohibited from attending schools. gender equality is a founding principal of the united nations. the universal declaration of human rights is supposed to apply equally to men and women,

and yet efforts to make protection of women's rights in afghanistan war central part of the un mission. there have been resisted by some members of the security council. other say it's not for lack of trying as tonia held crowd the language for the mission, the countries foreign minister, even marie lehman says the 1st priority is a unified council. and i mean that being already 6 months, we come back to the mandate and my job. the next next mandate will be more forward looking and give a stronger mandate to afford united nations to be bound to college in f. kennedy center. supportive project conscious development and for women in particular in girl? yes, absolutely. african women say they need all the help they can get and it can't come soon enough. kristen salumi al jazeera, the united nation. there's going outrage often out there. a news crew caught us

and other cities, their supporting police. they fight a wave of violent robberies. the increase in violence coincides with a full reopening of the economy. after months of cobra, 900 restrictions, i was sandra pet reports now from arm soldiers on the move in book. but rolling crime hotspots in the city checking identities, and frisking passers by freely to deployment of hundreds of soldiers in columbia. the main cities followed an appeal from mayor claudia lopez to the national government, an english class on emily. that is, as you know, with that this is not a military is asian of the city, but it is convenient for the army to support the police in to tass, dissuading climb, and searching for weapons. while critic say the measure is dangerous and unconstitutional, some believe it's a necessary evil. it's a difficult situation. there is lots of a lack of security. so i think it's good when the robberies in violent crimes have

seen a sharp upward spike since the economy started to recover after months of corona, virus confinement so far this year the city is registered. $754.00 murders, a 15.7 percent increase. and more than $65000.00 robberies. but what worries the most so tory, this is the level of violence. 15 year old loud, i'm what alice was shot in the legs at close range by a t. despite giving up her phone. is, can we low he carried out the car. it's crazy to attack a defenseless child. i can understand mugging an adult, but now they are shooting kids. i can't understand how anyone could do that way, but i need, jeff. the situation has become so dangerous that some banks are offering insurance to protect atm withdrawl for less than $2.00, you're protected for 2 hours in case of robbery. it covers the money, but also violence that domestic military deployments remains controversial in

a country just emerging from decades of war. when soldiers were deployed with the police in may, in response to anti government protest, it's parked the international condemnation. when dozens were killed. look it up easy. experts say that repeated studies in latin american cities show that deploying the army does not improve security. it's lame waste that course as well. that what it shows is the inability of the local and national government to manage security policies properly. and it shows that nobody prepared for a wave of crime so strong as the one with dealing with them because increased poverty levels in columbia to more than 40 percent in nearly one in 5 people is unemployed. a desperate situation for many and few believe soldiers on the street is anything more than a temporary solution. allison that i'm the i just gotta now for taking and enforce brake for the pandemic. the united states international motor show is back

the cost of getting folks had a logically advance now that penalty was also being shown off at the technology event like see yes. so the experience was kind of being diluted. few people were coming to this event, so they decided that they would try to reinvent themselves, they would move it to the summer, try to avoid this kind of weather. and then of course have a head. so they had to completely oppose it. so then they said that most developers for now, the idea was that rather than just having thousands of people endorsed exhibit, you have them outside and they get to do real things. like, for example, we've had runtime selling like now since they were paid and vehicles going from north to 60 in 3 seconds. we've been on much try to very immersive events because they said that is what people really, really was. ah, i talked to chris, i got the headlines here on 0 heads of state from around the world are addressing the un general assembly in new.
