1:03 pm
or dreams for justice. algebra, russell sardar, who interviewed the fact that had been hon has this update from cartoon. the protesters are, are putting the batteries on stress to block the main roads, which is slowing down the system. and which is something that definite, the army doesn't want to say because it wants to get the life back. as soon as sort of possible to get back the list to get the life back to the normalcy. but or on the other hand, there has been roughly around 80 people arrested. this is what had the teacher's union at house said look, a bit than did of the international calls also are for were hand to just restore the civilian government. there had been also some sources seen that they also prime minister of the law. hum duke has met the representatives off the appoint, tickled parties, and his he told them that he would, he would accept whatever they decide and he will follow the people in the city. so

1:05 pm
he might well step out of the picture right now. what's keeping him from stepping out of the picture. we've heard such promises from previous dictators. we've heard such promises in different contexts around the world. for us, these promises are dieted. we were asking for a complete civilian government. this is what we're asking for democratic transition since december 2018. he's also committed, however, to a smooth democratic transition. and that'll happen once elections are held in 2023, the smooth democrat, the transition that he's talking about. since he stepped in the fixture in april 2019, there has not started. it has been numerous that there has been complete address throughout with the military in the picture. so what type of added value is he added to the picture must in fact, he's complicating the seeing even more the presence of the army in the political life. incidence throughout the independence has been complicating the picture,

1:07 pm
all these dialogues and the civilian unless you cannot have the army depends if you are acting as a political life here saying when it comes to the dialogue, he what he also said is not exclusive interview. he said that talks were currently underway with political parties on figures, including the prime minister de la dock and on reaching a consensus on forming a government. do you not agree with that plan going forward? of course not because what balance call it is it to have someone under address or to have someone with the gun be part of this dialogue who is going to take you under arrest. if you say something that is affording to what, what they're going, what would they have on plan? what type of dialogue is this and what type of balance of powers it's and what type of civilian life or political life is. it's just absurd. all what he's saying is

a rwandan in cash and into east in congo. they were wondering, you know, do a denied being involved in this group. we don't know exactly why it's re service again now. and so if you haven't communicated anything, hasn't said what it demands or what it aims are, but compared to 8 years ago, the situation is very different in so far as the connelly's army is not nearly as strong as it was at that moment when it had some substantial support from un peacekeepers and them foreign support. and also this comes at a time where eastern congress is relatively insecure to other groups. the adf, another one called cadet co, just to the north of this area, have been attacking a lot of towns and villages and ambush in vehicles on the road. in recent years, the area is generally less stable. we don't know how strong in 23 is at this moment with the has any foreign support as it was widely believed to have before. thank

1:22 pm
thank you so much ronald, i'm the law had reporting from baghdad. iraq ah, leaders will use the 2nd and final week of the cop 26 climate, some at to see consensus on financial help for developing and vulnerable countries, previous commitments by richer nations on a longstanding issue remain unfulfilled. the 1st week saw pledges to curb methane emissions phase out coal fired power, stop overseas fossil fuel financing, and save forests. active as guttenberg has labeled a talks, a failure, and an exercise in green washing. and are simmons following the talks for us out of glasgow. andrew, what's on the agenda for today? we'll, as you pointed out, the issues of adaptation, lawson damage sales rather worthy. but it is a really key part of whether or not this summit is going to be successful because
1:23 pm
small, a poor countries, some of the worst affected states in the world are desperately needing good financing to replace up the energy that they're using. if they're using fossil fuels, for example, that they'll need to adapt and that is at holly expensive, and certainly the performance of cop to date a has been very weak on this pledges made pledges broken. i'm sums of money that haven't been enough that will all millions of dollars on the table right now, but still that's a long way to go with me right now is cassie flynn. now she's very well qualified to give us an overview of what's going to be happening in this. as we're past the half wasted, your a united nations development program head of climate policy. so tell us this week's crucial. is it not? it's absolutely crucial. and right now we're really at the halfway point of these negotiations, we saw over a 120 heads of state arrive last week, having
1:24 pm
a lot of things to say lot of pledges, as you said, pledges made, sometimes really questioning whether these pledges will be actually fulfilled or not, but at the same time, we have a number of issues on the negotiations that really have to be resolved. when it comes to the pairs agreement, there are a number of rules of the road that are being negotiated right now. and over the last few years, we've been negotiating them sort of one by one, and we're at the very end of the list. now. things like lawson damage things like article 6 and carbon markets. negotiators are hard at work trying to find areas of compromise on this. these are the stickiest issues, but they are critical to the parents agreement and we have to make progress on them this week of the buyer's agreement. we're talking here about sticking to this limit of 1.5 degrees centigrade, crucial. but please take us through this cuz a lot of people just don't get it. this is a bit like the security council, one member can veto whatever it comes. people come up with here, there's
1:25 pm
a very powerful lobby for the fulsome fuel industry. we're hearing now and it's much big of the actual presence of delegates here is much bigger than some of any other states represented. tell me, where are we with this? and how does it, how does this mechanism work? will we get a clear picture? well, something that's really important about these negotiations is that they are consensus based. meaning, every country has to agree at the same time. and this poses a lot of challenges operationally because it means everything that comes out when that gobble goes down. that all countries have to be on the same page. and to think about, you know, getting your family to agree on what to have for lunch is hard, but getting nearly 200 countries to agree on one of the biggest negotiations of one of the biggest crises the world is facing really takes a very complex, intricate set of negotiations that really bring everyone to the table. and this idea of consensus is really important because it means that every country is equal
1:26 pm
footing at the around the table of the biggest emitters are the same as the smallest emitters, those that are really, really vulnerable. but it often means that progress is not as quick as people want or that science needs us to be as his. then i'm afraid that so he goes on for and that situation cassie is highlighting it. can i take only one state to ruin a progress on an overall decision, an overall weight forward a cope so much concern? a lot of concerned about how this is gonna go this week and okay, thank you so much. andrew simmons reporting from glasgow will ask you when climate summit enters its final days in scotland. many activists say they're disappointed its commitments haven't gone far enough. and the climate change accelerates. people in some coastal cities are taking action themselves. and gallagher reports from miami, miami set to become the most vulnerable coastal city in the world,
1:27 pm
according to the economic organization, resources for the future. and it's not hard to see why the city faces a constant barrage of storm surges, coastal flooding and rising sea levels that is not addressed. threatening future if we get a coastal surge from a storm or even a high tide, they can flood this area, their challenges that miami's chief resilience officer works on every day. dozens of projects have already been completed, but the challenge is a huge. so that illusion in the way we occupy this land and how we deal with the water making room for water that we didn't think was going to be up on the land. i think we'll be here. i just don't think we'll look the same. that's a hard pill to swallow in the city that expanding and known as the gateway to the americas. but they're all learners of hope. for decades, miami is being considered the city at the forefront of tackling rising sea levels.
1:28 pm
and there's no question it is vulnerable. but many people point to this building the present museum of miami as a picture of what the future might look like, sitting over 3 meters higher than current storm surge requirements, the museum incorporates the latest in poorest materials, water management techniques and drainage. okay, well this is fine. let's do more of it despite the cost of construction of well over a $100000000.00. it's an example of what can be done. we knew exactly where this building was going to be. we wanted to make sure it was here forever. and it starts right there, what are the needs of an art museum, but what are the needs when you are on the water in miami, florida, like many coastal cities, miami city planners of finally taking action. some architects envisioning a very different relationship with the rising sees designs like this may be revolutionary, but experts say the alternative is unthinkable. we have an opportunity, hopefully to innovate and to think of ways that we can live with water and,
1:29 pm
and still not have to pack and go right cuz you know, displacing 6000000 people, you know, in an urban area is no easy task. the challenges in the costs involved the monumental, the sea levels continue to rise. the city could soon run out of options at the gallic rogers era. miami, florida. stella had on the news hour. folk counting in nicaragua, president her take as expected to win a poll that the u. s. is falling, a pantomime will tell you why people in mexico are excited to be back in queues. like these in the premier league, liverpool suffer, their 1st loss in 7 months. why not later in school? ah that was is too restless as it should be,
1:30 pm
it being autumn. so that's really windy weather is probably the thing to focus on the media future. and this low in the western meadows thing that's in place winding itself up and causing some pretty nasty weather. in fact, there's a strong wind blowing across into the norton formation coast and then wrapped around the low itself. is that normally gail from the knocker? so 2 aspects to look at really the strong winds with the rain to hit the north coast, algeria, and this wind of which there is a red warning at the moment. lasting through monday and into tuesday. the range, the size of that is still falling in both it has a government in exactly the place where it costs flooding only a couple of days ago. now that does tend to improve in the wind, will eventually ease for this low. if anything gets worse, lose back through the valley, our acts towards the east coast despite not be there on wednesday as well. it's not a place to be at the moment. in the lower part of europe, it's was a cease already the cold as.
