was the 1st un general assembly, attended by president joe biden speaking just weeks after the taliban takeover and cobble a war that, in effect, led to a u. s. defeat. he laid out his strategy on future u. s. military involvement. right? u. s. military power must be our tool of last resort, not our 1st, that should not be used as an answer to every problem we see around the world. we've ended 20 years of conflict, gas and and as we close this period of relentless war, we're opening a new air of lenders, diplomacy of using the power of our development aid to invest in new ways and lifting people up around the world. as he spoke, there was just one mid level french diplomat listening france incense while straight his 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. well, let's think now to mike how he's lived for us at the united nations, mike. so chinese president, she she pings that china wouldn't invade any country, and the disputes would be settled through dialogue. this was a very moderated speech, wasn't it? it was indeed, it was very restrained, particularly given the height and rhetoric that had come out of china in the wake of that alliance between the u. k. the u. s. and australia,

at that particular time, chinese spokespeople had described this as cold war mentality as a throw back to the days of imperialism. but nothing like that from the chinese president. he chose his words carefully. he portrayed china as a country seeking multilateral global engagement, willing to denay vaccine dosages to under developed countries, and no direct reference to the united states or the recent alliance insisting that china regarded diplomacy as regarded a dialogue as the most intense form and most useful form of diplomacy, this is what he had to say. go, you go up the differences in problems among countries. hardly avoidable, need to be handled through dialogue and corporation 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 taliban and say they want their new representative to address the general assembly this week and how is the year and responded to that request? well, this was an interesting target was initially reported by a number of views, agencies, and now the us has come out with a formal statement. according to that statement, on the 15th of this month, the former government in afghanistan said it would be sending this list of delegates to the united nations general assembly. however, 5 days later says the un, it got a letter from the bon, giving a list of new delegates insisting that the gun the government no longer existed and that the taliban should be regarded as the formal government up counties done and

be given representation within the united nations that nominated mohammed heed shaheen, who is presently in law as the new un representative. but the un has got a protocol in dealing with matters where membership is disputed and that is a 9 person credentials committee. that committee has to sit and look at the various parties involved in the dispute and rule on who is viable for membership of the united nations. but here's the rub. is simply not time, it is believed for the credentials committee to meet in coming days. it takes much longer to set up, so there's no chance. what's the weather that tell about representatives will be arriving before the un general assembly period is over. all right, my kind of life of the, at the united nations in the oh might thank you. now there's going outrage from al

jazeera news. crew caught us border agents on horseback, appealing to a so patient migrants in texas to 0 particle. haines. the latest now from capitol hill. the. these are the al jazeera pictures causing outreach across the united states. desperate and hungry haitian migrants trying to make it back to a makeshift camp with food and water met by for i. 6 don't know the men on horseback work for department of homeland security secretary alejandro. more acres. who promised in the senate hearing tuesday, there will be consequences. re, i directed to the office of professional responsibility be present on site in del rio, 247. to ensure that the conduct of our personnel adheres to our policy, to, to our policies, to our training and to our values. i was horrified to see the images and we look forward to learning the facts that are reduced from the investigation. the u. s.

vice president, also way to what i saw to pick good about those individual, non trading human beings the way they were horrible. but republicans in congress are making a broader political point saying border security is broken, and president biden is to blame this committee. all i can say is secretary, is that sooner or later, this administration is going to have to take responsibility for the crisis that you have committed, that the board that gets worse day upon day. but for the thousands of patients who hope this would be their 1st step to a new life in america, they are now being moved to other processing centers and are expected to be flown back to haiti in the next 10 days. the by the ministration is continuing the policies set up by the trump administration, which says because of the panoramic, they can support people right away without even giving them a chance to ask for asylum. now that is a to many in the president's own party,

but so far it doesn't appear that divide administration plans to change the policy . and if it does, would likely come too late for the thousands of patients on the border. political have al jazeera washington b, u. n's top refugee officials. filippo granby has said that the united states is mass expulsion of patients without hearing their asylum claims may be against international law. let's bring in. brian can cannon in marshfield, massachusetts. he's a human rights lawyer and founder of the institute for justice and democracy in haiti. bryan good to have you with us. so how significant then is this statement from, for the program, the and all these forced returns, even legal on the international law. the force returns of asylum seekers or not legal under either international law or us law. it's a violation of the refugee convention, which is one of the most broad li, signed and broadly respected instruments of international law. it's. it's

a violation to send anybody back to a country where they're fully persecution and are subject to more persecution. many of the people being deported from expelled from, from texas, are people who have made a claim for asylum. they have a right under international law to have those claims adjudicated before they are sent back. there is no process indicating there simply by pointing and sent back. let's just talk about title 42, brian, because this was only a cdc guideline. it was a health guideline used to prevent novel diseases entering the us. it was never if i'm right and saying an immigration policy, but there's nothing novel now about kobe 19. it's been in the us for nearly 2 years . so is it time to throw title $42.00 out the window? the administration is always know that it's time to throw title $42.00 out the window vice president campbell hires when she was a senator co signed

a bill saying that it was illegal and did not advance public health. the administration knows a promise in february to review it. it announced in june that it would end it, but it is still keeping the rule and really to cater to white supremacists in the united states who make noise every time. there are people the border, especially people of color. last thursday, a federal judge rule that the use of title 42 is the legal. the judge agreed to withhold enforcement of his order for 2 weeks. and it's, during those 2 weeks at the administration is now rushing to to deport as many haitians as it can, even though it knows that the go. those goes expulsions are easily brought us to national law. yeah. and brian has been a huge backlash in the out there. a video went viral and us officials have said, whipping migraine some horseback won't happen again. but what does it say about the way refugees migrants are currently being treated at the southern border?

because this is a big flash point, isn't it? it certainly says a lot about about how they're treated the with being was an aberration. but there's been a long history of races. miss treatment of patients at the border and complaining about the whipping is really low hanging fruit from a moral and illegal perspective. if people are serious about being against grace's treatment of of immigrants, they would stop using title $42.00, which is, which was a walk established by donald trump's immigration advisor, steven miller, who's an avowed white supremacist. i mean, he has, he is trying to keep america with a white majority. that's part of the plan in the organizations that are brian, just a final point you can push the time. you as president joe biden has come on the increasing pressure from rights groups and members of his own party over the for 6 potions of

patients. but is this like it to, to, for the administration to rethink its immigration policies? do you think? because that's the big question, isn't it? i hope it does. and i hope it's just what biden is worried about is that the, that the republicans and otherwise the promises are going to make a lot of noise. and i think he just needs to, it's good that people are making noise on the other side to get the administration to obey the law. and he's just going to have to say, decide who he's with the people who are completing, who don't like immigrants or the law. alright. or brian can kind of really good to get your thoughts. thank you very much indeed. children's roger sarah, thank you. thank you for a short break here. now just 0 when we come back. so down the government says it for the qu, attempt who they believe is behind it. and police in the u. k. charge a 3rd russian with the attempted murder of a former spy on but your soil 3 years ago on the table. ah!
