4:31 pm
ah, 1330 gmc heated over here and, oh, how you top stories voting. it's now underway in iraq to elect a new parliament and a poll brought forward and response the mass protests. the prime minister must offer alchemy was among the 1st to cast a ballot and an attempt to encourage the turn out thousands of generations of back on the streets in the capital tunes protesting against the president they're accusing. he said of orchestrating a qu after he suspended parliament and assumed more powers in july and talks. but in the u. s. and the taliban officials in doha, have entered a 2nd in it's their 1st in person meeting since the arm group seized power in afghanistan, security aid and women's rights are on the agenda on day one. staying
4:32 pm
with our top story the elections in iraq. let's bring in, ran out, man saw he's a senior research fellow chatham house in london ran i'd great, have you back here on the news out. if the turn out is so low, we think it might dipped maybe 30 percent, and people are worried that it's a case of out with the old in with the old. what's the point? well, that's exactly the question that many iraqis have been i for the last die year while you know the un international actors, iraqi politicians have all been trying to make the case get out to vote. they've been saying, wait a minute. we've been here before. we've seen different types of electoral laws we, we haven't seen reform, nothing has changed on only that. many of our leaders, many of the active list, many of the leaders of civil society has been assassinated and there's been no. ready legal procedures for that. they've been killing with impunity. so i'd say, you know, as you ask, they're all asking, what is the point? it's going to be the same cast of characters,
4:33 pm
the same. leach coming back together and splitting the spoils. busy of. ready the very wealthy bridge or oil, the rocky states. we've been reporting today with our team out of mosul in northern iraq, about her, the people there feel they have virtually 0 representation because of the, the split between different aspects of the muslim faith between mosul and baghdad. and if people around the world are engaged with that part of the narrative of what it means to be an iraqi voter in this day and age and 2021. what is it about the government in baghdad that makes them either by accident or deliberately ignorant of that? well, i think, i mean there are few points to raise here. one, this is not a story. the problem isn't one of our che, or identity or sac or ethnicity. what it is is an elite which includes different
4:34 pm
sex in different ethnicities. becoming incredibly wealthy, incredibly powerful, but not sharing that well with the people. so in mosul, as you say, it's not just the buckeye, the leaders who failed them, it's the most likely lead. there's failed them as well as the social leaders. so we, we have, we have a crisis representation. the leaders of iraq don't have much ideological capital anymore. they can't convince people, they also don't have economic capital because before they could provide jobs, they could get people into the public service employment. they can't do that anymore. and so what we've seen because of that because of that loss is of the ideological and economic is born. more of the leaders are forced and happy to use coercive violence means to stop our position. the iraqi elite views the biggest threat to the political system as these protesters. and what we seen in the last years is the system is resilient and has been able to squash descent,
4:35 pm
able to squash protesters. and these elections might look like democracy, but they're really just reinforced card system, but is harming so many here are part of the dynamic behind the mass process. the kicked off in 2019 was the fact that people was sick and tired of allegations alleged. i should say corruption up and down the country from all the regional centers into and including the capital city back that why is it consecutive administrations have not dealt with those allegations effectively? and why is that they don't want to be seen to be dealing with them because those allegations that the protest started in 2019, but the allegations predates 2019 by good few years. that's right. that's right. and i think, you know, when we talk about corruption, iraq, we're not talking about a small group of illegal, you know, performing illegal activities. corruption is the political system. the way to play politics is corruption, corruption, as politically sanction. so of course the leaders can't fight corruption because if
4:36 pm
they went to fight corruption, they would all have to remove themselves from office. of course they can't do that and instead they've all come together. they, they've, they've agreed with each other. how to share? well, how to share the state were amongst each other and, and it's not with the people. so it's, it's hard to talk about corruption because corruption is the political system and that's exactly it. then the protesters from october 2019 had it had many demands that the root of their demand was to change the political system. the leaders couldn't deliver that because they have to retire. so what they did instead was focused on early elections. so they're excited about these early election, but many people are not because the roots of problems, the roots of grievances has not been tackled, neither by iraq leaders nor the international community that has spent millions of dollars trying to these issues. an important story that needs to be understood and discussed and told ronald, thank you so much. great to get your thoughts as ever. and i've months were there

4:47 pm
colombians and peruvians are flocking to chile. huge numbers of haitians are actually leaving on the us mexico border. hundreds of haitians have discarded their chilion id cards as they risked their lives trying to reach you assures the question is, why would they leave chile the country with the highest per capita income in the region and throughout the north? didn't know, but i love me in, on the faith, yelton's, religion and the treatment that haitians receive here from chiles. current president is indecent. that's why they decide to journey to el dorado. even if they die on the way was because they are sure they will be treated better. lisa must. the death of a young haitian mother shook the community to the core 2 years ago. 27 year old john flawed well, who did not speak spanish was arrested and later taken from the police station to the hospital in a coma. her sister says that fraud will had been accused of abandoning her 2 month old baby at the municipal office, when in fact,

4:49 pm
discrimination is based on class. it's poverty that makes a difference in the room when at a migrant assistance center in santiago, we meet another haitian migrant who asked not to be identified for fear of reprisals. she says the main problem isn't racism. it's the government refusal to issue or were you working documents for most haitians handled with us about hollywood, one from polk county. if you want to work, you have to have an id card at to have an id card you need to work on. so if you can't get papers, how can you work? you can't live decently. that's why the majority of my friends have left the country. i have no friends. luckily, i approximately 90 percent of patients in chile don't have valid residency papers which makes them open to ramp and abuse from landlords and in scrupulous employers and ineligible for social services. in his current government has become more hostile towards undocumented migrant, especially those for example,
