and parliamentary elections will continue to register the names for the presidency through the 22nd of this month. and the nominees will be registered for the parliamentary elections. the 7th of december, 2021. well, we have our libya correspondent malik train here today with us in doha molig. so it does seem like these elections are on track to go ahead as pans. well, i think if you listen to the high national electoral commission, they definitely seem to be, are there moving forward in there a plan to get the elections asked to happen as scheduled a but you know, there are other questions that remain on, answered the legislative body there's one piece in eastern libya, the house of representatives, and the one in western libya, the high council of state. are there supposed to agree on a constitutional framework for these elections to happen,

or that includes who can run for president, or what kind of powers does the president have? are those questions remain to be answered? and so, so, so there's the questions as to if the elections can happen or scheduled. but i think a strong and a strong board statement by the national electoral commission saying they are moving forward and they're accepting our candidates to register in the coming days and weeks. and like you and i were talking earlier about the invite saying that appears to be taking place ahead of these policies and there's no way more obvious than in the case in the foreign minister in yeah, that's right. you see, you have to understand the government of national unity came through this long and difficult process, bringing the various actors of libya, various stakeholders together. they came up with this government of national unity to lead the country to elections. but really, it wasn't about qualifications, really they brought in people from various, various parts of the countries and at times with very different different political

views or where they wanna move for or how to move forward in the country. so what we're seeing now is, you know, you know, the presidential council, which is the highest power in the national government of unity flexing their muscle, telling little among goose that, you know, foreign policy is something that we're responsible for. and you have to coordinate with us she, you know, she, they say that she overstepped her boundaries. so that's really, you know, trying to put her in place and letting her know that we're the ones in power, the president's council. we're the ones in power. you have to coordinate with us when it comes to foreign policy malay, china that are libya, corresponded with that analysis for us. thanks so much. malik ali i also spoke to use of one, though he's a professor of political science and international relations at catholic university . and he says, the foreign minister suspension illustrates that risks we were talking about between competing interests and the run up to these election. i think it said that the decision to respond the deemed foreign minister for the b. that's not forget,

it's punctually, and it has been taken by depletion. does a do business with council, which the government rejects that shows a deep division between the political actors in libya, especially given this international conference in paris and also the elections the scheduled before the 24th of december. i think the, the, the statement that she would collaborate with us are over the handling of this particular little, i suspect, for the lockerbie bombing. in my view is not too deep for the main reason why as she was, and he moved from our office pump. what only for about 14 days pending investigation, i believe. but although a decision pertaining to the record of

a number of ambassadors like the, the been ambassador in the us and in all man and the arab league, a, she claimed that delicate dungeons of expired. but as far as the libyan law is concerned, she does not have the authority to appoint 02 at he called in a battles on. so she has been very vulcan against the turkish presence in libya and doug angled, a number of a conservative move islamic groupings in the country. while stella had here on out their fears of renewed conflict, an indian is going to kashmir, families warner's course in the violence security stepped under. you and buddy investigating the actions of me and military tells al jazeera it's found evidence that may amount to crimes against humanity. ah,

this obviously increases the violence and complicates our work. there's issues about what violence is lawful on both sides. and the situation simply gets more complicated and day by day. now the mechanisms role is to collect co, late, preserve the evidence. you have no pounds a prosecution. how important is it to retain this evidence and collected over a period of time? evidence will degrade over time. memories will fade witnesses, will die. graves will be the bodies will degrade over time. so it's important that while the crumbs are fresh, the evidence is preserved. but also, i think, aside from whether any court ever handles the material, it's very important for it to be preserved. it's important for victims to know someone cares about what happened to me and someone is, is collecting this. they believe me, they want to know what happened,

and it's very important that potential perpetrators know if you commit this act, someone is collecting evidence and hopefully that will act as some type of deterrent to further horrendous violence. you mechanism started to her 2018 the year after the events of 2017 you mention what the us has described as essentially genocide. is there a process in which having acted with virtual impunity at that stage, the military is enable to continue to up its game so to speak, resulting in the, to in february, you know, mike, after the coo and after the uptick and violence against peaceful demonstrators and me in law, we received a daily wish, of communications from people largely in me and mar, wanting to share evidence with us. and also asking us, please, we need accountability please when you need to hold people to account, bring us justice. how important is your collation of evidence in terms of bringing

this to a halt, stopping the cycle. i think it's critical. we want to be the central repository, collecting all relevant evidence. because some day this may be used, we're going to collect it. we're going to analyze it and we'll prepare files that will facilitate prosecutions in national or international courts and purchases and georgia, calling for the release of former president mikayla sock has really he was there last month when he returned to the country after being convicted in absentia of abuse of power, he's currently on a hunger strike and demonstrate as a demanding to be transferred to a private clinics because he's getting weaker. but authorities say the 53 year olds and vital signs and normal homey, while thousands of people in poland have also taken to the streets that and renewed protests against a strict abortion law. the rallies response by the death of pregnant woman doctors
