8:02 pm
raised concerns about migration policies. the press secretary gen saki, this, that present by then is taking the issue seriously. when he is asked all of us to convey clearly to people who are understandably, have questions, are passionate or concerned. as we are about the images that we have seen is one, we feel those images are horrible and heretic. there is an investigation. the president certainly supports overseen by the the department of homeland security, which he has conveyed. what will happen quickly. i can also convey to you that the secretary also conveyed to civil rights leaders earlier this morning that we would no longer be using horses in del rio. so that is something a policy change that has been made and response or get the latest romano apollo in mexico. shortly 1st though, let's have a washington d. c or a white house correspondent. kimberly hawkins is there for us. kimberly, when you make this response by the white house,
8:03 pm
it's rather unusual. is it not for bosses or to keep soon? and then only tell the precedents and the superior is that there's a problem by resigning it's hard to, to, by the explanation what we see right. now from the by an administration is tooth 2 things. number one, there seems to be a clear decision to hide behind the policies in terms of tried to explain and defend the independent fence of all. and the other take away from the press. secretaries comment is that what the, by the ministration strategy seems to be is to blame every one but themselves. not only is the white house press secretary and the binding ministration, blaming the special envoy to haiti for not raising his concerns privately before his resignation. but also we heard from that very same podium,
8:04 pm
the press. secretary, also blaming the smugglers for taking advantage of haitians and warring them with the promise that they could cross into the united states. what we didn't hear is the president of the united states, or anyone from the administration so far, really taking responsibility for what is transpiring. what we heard from the press secretary is that they are continuing to implement the law denying that they are not applying it evenly, even as we've seen, the united states welcome in tens of thousands of afghans to the united states. we've also seen undocumented migrants from central america being welcomed into the united states, but the policies with regard to haitian migrants is that a disproportionate number of women and children we should point out. and we believe the latest number show about 2 and 3 patients are women and children being deported . this is being applied under what the administration likes to call title 42. what
8:05 pm
this is, is a trump error policy put in place to prevent the spread of cobit 19. there's no explanation about why this isn't being applied to other demographics, but instead say that they're going to continue to do what they are doing and arguing in the same breath that their policies are different from donald trump's, even as the images seem to show something quite different. ok, kimberly how could lie for us in washington, dc for now? kimberly, thank you. let's had across the mexico city where we can speak to algiers. mano rap a lot of money. you've been following many of these people who are making that long and dangerous journey northwards to the united states. get a sense of what that journey is like conditions and like for those people, making that, that epic trip holla, the fact that this is such an epic trip, the fact that this is such
8:06 pm
a long journey for so many of these migrants gives you an idea of the scale of this crisis, because on the one hand you can see these images is disturbing images from the us mexico border from the last few days. we've all seen the images of the us border patrol on horseback mistreating migrants rounding them up like cattle along the river that separates the united states from mexico. but that's only part of this larger migrant crisis that's been playing out for several months. arguably since the beginning of the year for many of these people just last week we were in the city of tampa july. this is in southern mexico. it's a border town about 50 kilometers north of mexico's border with bought a mall and what we witness, there was anywhere between $35000.00 migrants and some estimate. so just as many as 100000, my migrants. the vast majority of them from haiti saying that many of them have been stuck there for for months. so when we hear about these criticisms of us policy, the way that the united states is implementing this hardline immigration policy in the southern border, the deportation of migrants. well,
8:07 pm
there's also very strong criticisms of immigration policy here in mexico as well. there have been documented instances of immigration agents here in mexico, also rounding of migrants, basically abusing them of videos of the mistreatment of migrants by, by border patrol. and there's also criticism of the larger immigration strategy by mexico itself, which is a policy of containment to prevent migrants from moving north from that southern border towards the united states. and what this is done is create one of the largest bottlenecks for migrants on the american continent. and the biggest criticism here. and i think evidence of this is what we've seen over the last few days on the us mexico border is that this policy of containing migrants in the southern part of mexico is having a negligible effect on the actual number of migrants making their way north towards the united states. so curiously enough, what we've seen yesterday over the last few days is more migrants arriving here in mexico city. who have seen the news of seeing these images of what's happening to their fellow haitian migrants on the us mexico border. and they're wanting to apply
8:08 pm
for asylum, seek legal paperwork to remain here in mexico, instead of running the risk of deportation. take a look waiting outside an immigration office in mexico city. these haitian migrants have decided it safer to ask to stay here, rather than risk crossing the us border. i'm hearing people are being deported to high 3 and right now high t, it's very bad. they don't have a president. there are many things so we can't go there. that's why i'm afraid, and i want to live here in mexico. in recent days, the u. s. has been sending more migrants back home following the arrival of thousands of haitian nationals on the us mexico border. but not all are being repatriated. many who have crossed in the state of texas have been given paperwork and a day to appear in the us immigration court. though there's. ready confusion about how authorities decide who goes and who states. right now, it's not clear how they are being process. what criteria border patrol is using
8:09 pm
to say, who should have access to parole? who is going on the deportation flight. they got to go off this week. images of us border patrol agents on horseback mistreating haitian migrants provoked international outrage. agent captured on video by al jazeera, have been placed under investigation human rights observers. more than that, conditions for migrants on the mexican side of the border are even more challenging and immigration agents here in mexico have also been accused of abusing migrate. more haitian migrants are expected to arrive in mexico's capital in the days and weeks ahead. there are many are going to abandon the north and come down here to the city in search of new opportunities. so i think that migration will continue to increase and we, the 30s must do something to provide the solution that the case requires elsewhere in northern mexico, people are rounded up in immigration rates and sent south towards the border with guatemala, where more migrants from haiti, and elsewhere,
8:10 pm
enlighten america arrive daily. and these last month, the number of haitian people arriving and mexico has increased drastically. this is interesting because haitians are not arriving directly from haiti and said many are traveling from far away as brazil. and sheila, international observers ward that nasty partitions could overwhelm haiti as thousands, return to the same cycle of violence, poverty, and political instability that forced them to leave in the 1st place. manuel, up a little al jazeera mexico city. the u. n. faculty general has warned climate change is escalating. the point that it threatens to intensify the world's conflicts, antonio could tara address, the security council meeting on climate and security? he said dwindling resources like water will exacerbate high things in regions that are already unstable. we have to stop debating whether the climate crisis belongs in the security council. and instead ask how the council can leverage its unique
8:11 pm
powers to tackle the negative impacts of climate on peace and security. that's an argument that should have been settled a long time ago. look at almost every place where you see threats, international peace and security today. and you'll find that climate change is making things less peaceful, less secure, and rendering our response even more challenging. well, that's a special un session on the climate crisis, and it's actually blinking, met the french foreign minister showing literally all the u. s. and french president spoke a day earlier to smooth over a diplomatic rift over the new american alliance with britain and australia. here's our implement account, sir james bay's. we understand from what has been released by the, by the french side, that mr. deal met, sexual state blinking, interesting, where the meeting took place. it took place at the french mission to the united
8:12 pm
nations. so the french, i think, made, made the u. s. come to them, which i think shows again a little bit of contrition, which we saw in statement that came out from the white house 24 hours ago after that phone call between president biden. and president macro, yes. that meeting they're talking again. these are close allies. they have to do business. they were both in the un security council, iran for that meeting on time and conflict. but i think they'll be some mistrust that wasn't there in the policy. and that's why you're going to see another beating a higher level, perhaps more important meeting between president macro and president biden. they're both supposed to be in the same place anyway, the end of october because it's the g 20 meeting. and they're both members of course of the g 20. so they will be meeting we think, in rome, more effort, i think, to rebuild this diplomatic relationship which has suffered, i think, some serious damage and i think it will be lasting damage. it'll take some time. i think for them to get back to where they were before the last week. millions of

8:28 pm
and undoubtedly most of us have a drawer home or a box full of unused cables, gathering dust, most of them obsolete because we've bought a new device. and this streamlining of cables is incredibly popular with consumers because it's estimated that we're throwing away $51000.00 tons of cables in europe each year. so common charge is the 1st part of that proposal. the 2nd part is that new charges aren't going to be sold in the same box as a new device anymore. we bought separately. and the 3rd part of the proposal is that the charging speed within the cables is also going to be standardized. the proposal needs to get the green light from you countries and lawmakers, and then when you counsel in parliament can agree and identical text. the bill could be become law in 2022 and then companies will have to use to adapt the devices. now again, apple is pushing back saying they feel like they're being deliberately targeted
8:29 pm
because obviously that cables will come will become obsolete. but the e u has pushed back against them. hard saying they have given tech companies a decade to come up with a common solution to this problem, but they failed to agree on one. so now is the time for legislative actions. my poles in germany are pointing to a tight race in federal elections. this sunday political parties have a last chance to persuade undecided voters when the candidates face off in a televised debate, which takes place in just a few hours time. before the sets of vote for members of the german parliaments and those alexis will then choose a new chancellor at replace anglo marco, she, steph, in vain. after 16 years at the house, are much more on that story and more on our website. the address as ever is al
