there's no way the u. s. and it's western allies will agree to unfreeze afghanistan's assets and hand that money directly to the taliban. but the un believes there's another solution to inject money into afghanistan's economy, and that's using trust funds set up, for example, by the u. n. development program or the world bank, and those funds can then be used to pay for vital supplies and sellers. already one such scheme is up and running, allowing a fund of $15000000.00 to be accessed by hospitals and health care workers. james bays al jazeera at the united nations north korea's leader kim jones says his country's weapons development is an act of self defense. he says the build up is necessary to face hostile policies from the u. s. and increasing military forces in south korea. the 2 careers have been in an accelerating arms race with both sides testing, short range, ballistic missiles and other hardware. ganga is

in 1990 bodies drug helps reduce the risk of disease or death impatience. it marks a boost in the drug, make his effort to develop corona virus medicine beyond vaccines. large scale trials show the drug kept people from developing severe symptoms. the treatment reduced the risk of death by 50 percent in patients who had been symptomatic for up to 7 days. it was tested on people who had a high risk of developing severe reactions to the virus. dr. krishna oh, they are kumar as a director at the duke global health innovation center in the u. s. he says it's new treatments are developed. the ongoing problem of access to drugs also needs to be addressed. the good news here is that we have a really strong pipeline of therapies which are going to be a game changer when they do come on line. we know that in the long term vaccination is incredibly important, but as we see, day after day,

vaccines are not going to be enough in their current form. even when we increase supply, we know that we're not going to cover everybody that needs to be covered. so increasing the tools we have to use, especially therapies are going to be really important. and what's exciting now is that we have oral medications like the one from merck that was just announced in terms of its clinical efficacy. so more and more our tools are really what we're going to need to turn the tide. yes, it really could drastically reduce the depths and hospitalizations that we're seeing. so while we work on other public health measures and vaccinations to try to reduce the overall rate of infections, we can augment that by using therapies as they become available. we know that the ones that we've had so far are really hard to use, hard to scale, and the more that we get that are easier to use is cheaper and scalable. the better off will be, of course we do have to be really careful that we don't go down the same pathway as

with vaccines where we concentrate the availability to just a few rich countries that the rest of the world doesn't benefit fast enough. over time, we have to have a more distributed global system for manufacturing. so we've got to stand up in parts of africa in latin america in asia, more vaccine manufacturing capacity because we've learned in the last 12 months that having manufacturing either locally or in the region makes a big difference. phil had an al jazeera rights group call for better protection for fishermen in se asia officer, a series of desks that see then the man said, you have one little bit the making a joke. al jazeera speaks with the winner of the nobel prize for literature. the rosa, good enough. ah

former prime minister, not a key looks set to have the next largest supposed to amongst she, off parties. now returning to afghanistan, the acting foreign minister has been speaking about what he calls a new phase in the town of bonds relationship with the world. he led the delegation to hartford for the 1st face to face meetings with the u. s. and d, u, since foreign forces left cobble latoya to cooper von would agree. a new chapter of the positive relationship with the world was opened. the door agreement in february 2020 between afghanistan and the united states of america is defined as good relationships. i believe that the full implementation of the doha agreement between us and the u. s. can tackle any problems. that is why it is important that both parties remain committed to the doha agreements. we want positive relationships with the whole world. we believe that such a balance international relations can save afghanistan from instability at the same time that of the same bus. robbie is in the catherine capital with more acting

foreign minister of the afghan taliban government. mr. mckee, here in doha, spoke during a speech at a center for conflict resolution about inclusivity inclusivity. he said is not a problem under the taliban. and he boasted about the fact of $500000.00 civil servants there worked under the former government have not been fired, have not been placed under threat, have been told to come back to their jobs and are currently working. he said that passports are being issued again and women are part of that workforce. he was asked point blank and a follow up question. does that $500000.00 strong civil service include women? and he said in one word, yes, he expanded on that then saying that they've been told to come back, those that haven't are still being paid. their salaries is a show of good faith, a 100 percent of those that worked in the health care sector are back to work. 50 percent of those that worked in the education sector are back to work. so again, the rhetoric on point it would seem that the taliban may have turned a page. the rhetoric is very different from what we've seen in the past with

regards to the role of women in a government under the afghan taliban. so these are potentially positive signals, but we have to remember that have gone on as a difficult some would say impossible country to govern from a centralized place. anti government protest as have been demonstrating across bolivia, they say propose new law is a dangerous step towards a police states. it would allow authorities to investigate the assets of any citizen without a court order. the government thinks it's essential to tackle elicit earnings and boost the economy. daniel schriner reports opponents of the government's proposed new law blocked roads in major cities across bolivia. they were met by police who cleared them to ensure workers could get through the demonstrate to see the law concentrate too much power in the hands of the state which could use it to persecute offers if i'm leaders, the strongest focus was in the eastern city of santa cruz who line by the new
