9:32 pm
known as swaziland activists, are demanding an end to the monarchy thing in swati. the 3rd has ruled since 1986. brazilian senate committee has recommended the present viable sanara be charged with crimes against humanity for his handling of the coven. 19 pandemic. it's accusing balls narrow of pushing brazil's death told to the world's 2nd highest. while let's dig into this a little more with gustavo rivera. he is a political analyst and also editor in chief of the brazilian report. he joins us now via skype from sao paolo gustavo. let's start with how present burleson arrow is now perceived by the brazilian people. there have been protests, which he's seemingly brushed off. he says he's bored of questions about co, the death isn't now. do you think just a matter of time until he's voted out in elections next year? well, it seems so as far as schools show right now, his re election bed is an uphill battle and if the elections were today,
9:33 pm
a former president, lula silver, the senator, left icon in brazil with handedly when the election of course tell action ers, are not today and he still has one year to try and improve his approval ratings through cash transfer programs is what he's trying to do in order to create some sort of feel good factor cur, heading into next year's election. but as far as i know, we compare his approval, regents with every single, no other predecessor carrying into written reelection. he faces a much problematic scenario. busy than any other incumbent has face had before on account, be helped by their senate inquiry. i understand there was talk of the phase genocide or homicide before the draft report. then settled on this board a crimes against humanity. how independent is this inquiry process itself?
9:34 pm
well, the inquiry has been quite independent. it is for my 11 senator 7 of which have no affiliation and no association with the government. and he has been able, throughout 6 months to raise a lot of evidence showing that the government deliberately boycotted lockdown. se faxing deals in pretty much every single measure. that's a scientific consensus creature. even though the government knew, according to health ministry minutes, that these measures would help presume avoid deaths. and that would be more would make more sense economically speaking. also that would allow brazil to go back to closer to normal, quicker than this sort of hard immunity strategy. that seems to have taken place in brazil, gustavo, just, how far could this inquiry the guy could we potentially see criminal charges? could this end up in, hey well it's quite difficult to. busy predict
9:35 pm
where. busy this is going to go because the committee has only the powers to recommend insight with in the has recommended indictments on multiple crimes. busy against president wilson out of in 68 other people. but i know the decision comes to prosecutors and the prosecutor general is a lie and has been aligned with both. so now the seems wilson and named him in 2019 . and in the case of the president was even more difficult because of the several legal hoops that an. busy busy indictment would have to clear, the supreme court would have to authorize it, and then the house would have to vote on this indictment request. and 60 percent of congressman would have to support the indictment. a dance would suspend bo, sonata from office and right now go. so that has a solid enough base to avoid that. it doesn't mean that when both on the leaves office which as. busy we mentioned could be on january the 1st of 2023,
9:36 pm
and then he would be for a game for our regular prosecutors. very interesting, gustavo rivera, that political analyst and editor in chief of the brazilian report, always going to get your thoughts from out there. thank you for joining us. gustavo . thank you. now, moving on and a haitian gang is demanding $17000000.00 for the release of 16 americans and one canadian who are abducted near the capital. put a prince on saturday. instability in haiti has been getting worse since july, when president of anomalies was assassinated. and you recall and august a half will earthquake, also killed more than 2200 people, an engine, 12000 more phasing poverty and a humanitarian crisis. thousands of haitians meanwhile are trying to flee to the united states, but washington has aggressively sent the majority of them back. meanwhile, on haiti streets, criminal gangs appear to be filling the political vacuum. reason estimate,
9:37 pm
say they now control half of the country, man, you're a palo reports now from the capital. puerto prince. ah, brutus in haiti's capital, puerto prince o. demonstrators chanted liberation as they marched on the streets, just north of the city, calling for the release of christian missionaries. this borders as we made for the americans that did not come summer jim because they can not them. because of them, we can do everything like they build their school night abuse. so they do everything for now, right now, did you not get there with the kidnappers, or demanding $17000000.00 in exchange for 17 hostages, which include 5 children, the abduction of the aid workers, one of whom is canadian, is the largest of its kind in recent years ah, we on tuesday, you are secretary of state antony, blinking, told reporters washington is doing everything it can. ah,
9:38 pm
we have in the administration. ah, been relentlessly focused on, on this, including a sending a team to haiti from the state department in constant communication with the the haitian national police. the church of that, the missionaries tom belong to as well as to the of asian government ah, following the assassination of haitian president of nell marie's in july and then a devastating earthquake in august. crimes like kidnappings, extortion and violent attacks have intensified. ah, more than $600.00 abductions were reported in the 1st 3 quarters of this year. though a joint effort by u. s. and haitian authorities continues issues like the worsening security situation. widespread fuel shortages, a lack of clear government leadership and growing social on rest, are proving to be major obstacles against efforts to free those kidnapped man
9:39 pm
whether apple al jazeera, puerto prince, last vote, alexandra phillips, as he's a senior staff attorney with the institute for justice and democracy in haiti, she says haitians are fighting for safety and opportunity and the country's problems run very deep. indeed. patients have been demanding that the government respond to the insecurity. there was actually a national shutdown on monday and tuesday of the week that had been called for, even before the worst people really demanding that the government stop and, and address the insecurity. i think it's a major question mark of whether the government does able and willing to do so. so the gangs are really have gotten out of control and he's police report and increasingly that it's going to demoralize there many allegations of corruption. we've certainly observed police violence, suppress, peaceful protest, and there are widespread allegations, even though some police involvement in gain massive curves against civilians. a
9:40 pm
justice system isn't complete disarray as well. and that's a result of some actual active interference by the government in the justice sector to prevent accountability for things. the government has been complicit in and what you're seeing is patients really calling for a haitian life solution. there is a commission for a haitian search solution to a crisis and that call for a haitian my transition that really try to address some of the structural drivers, the stability like drastic some of the corruption and some of the institutional challenges that i've created. this systematic instability and insecurity. now, scientists are one step closer to saving human lives with animal transplants off the temporarily attaching a pigs kidney to a human body and watching at work the procedure involved using gina that animal to
9:41 pm
raise the sugar that human body is normally reject surgeons were then able to attach the pigs, oregon to blood vessels outside of the patient, the kidney was able to filter waste and produce you're in for 2 days without triggering a rejection in the host. that's free and dr. dominick wilkinson. he is the director of medical ethics at the university of oxford. he wrote center for practical ethics . he joins us now by skype from there. dr. wilkinson, this is obviously being held as a huge medical breakthrough. and we'll get to the implications of that in just a moment. but it's also a rather provocative idea for many people, the idea that an organ growing in a pig could then be attached to a human being. or are we waiting into an ethical gray area here? we're transplants like this. rage familiar. and there is sometimes difficult, ethical, human ethical challenges and they combine them with animal ethical issues. and of course, the combination of a sheer human and animal organ inside
9:42 pm
a human body raises concerns in some people's minds about whether this hybrid an existence is natural, whether it goes against the natural order. and so, so there are a variety of different consumes. oh, this procedure, well, once it's developed a little further, could potentially say tens of thousands of lives. but i imagine this is also not something that everyone is keen on. how wide spread did you think this practice could become? do you think where there's been a desire for a long time to look for other sources of transplant people organs, there are many people with organ failure, particularly kidney failure to wait for a very long time for an organ or sadly, di, on, on waiting lists or need other forms of treatment for a long period of time or your ride that that some people may choose
9:43 pm
not to have this form of organ and indeed in the short term transplantation from a pig. is it likely to be much more risky than transplantation from either a deceased or living a kidney human donor? so it wouldn't be many people volunteering to this in the short term. but if it is, say, and if it's an available option for those who, for example, can get access to a human organ. and then i think many people would be keen for, for this to be available at the idea of animal organs. dr. being used in humans isn't to new and i believe it's been going on for decades. rice. so that's right. there's been interest for a long time. of course. one thing that many people might not be aware of is that pig hot vows have been used, are still used very routinely in it for patients who at heart valves are no longer
9:44 pm
working. there's been since, since the beginning of the 20th century actually attempts to trans bland animal organ, the humans because human organ fail. and they've been an attempt in the 1960, to put pig to put chimpanzee kidneys into humans. in one case with a patients a human who survived without problems for a number of months. but it's been very difficult because the human body rejects things that it regards is foreign. so the prospect of genetically modifying animal organs as seemed like the only way to make this possible. very interesting and huge, huge possibilities that dr. dominic wilkinson from the university of upset. thanks so much for sharing your expertise and insights with us. and joining us here on out there, a doctor,
