replaced by one that represents only barbados, which now has a new president, sandra mason. we now turn our vessels bow towards the new republic. redo this so that we may seize the full substance of our sovereignty. barbados was a britain's 1st and most important slave colony, whose sugar feels produced vast wealth for the empire. it gained independence only 55 years ago, but retained the monarchy. the 3 barbados became one of the queens, 16 realms. but the many the time had come to cut the umbilical cord with the monarchy. to wayne a bayesian as by bay dns call themselves cells, tiny salty fruit that grows by the seaside, a specialty here. he agrees with the change. i feel as be a positive, but one of us is able to run the quote for, you know, it was meant from decisions. but others like 19 year old could shawna says that the

decision to break with the monarchy was imposed on them by the prime minister. without consultation, they wasn't even as this one did you see, is it probably and now was it, the new president will have a largely ceremonial role behind the prime minister and barbados will remain a part of the british commonwealth, which queen elizabeth heads this former quaker plantation has been the residence of the governor general, the queen's representative in barbados for the last 55 years. now. it will be the residence of this country's new president, making barbados the was youngest republic at least for now as a farewell president of sorts. the prime minister awarded prince charles the countries middle of freedom and then announced another surprise, the nation's hero award to the country's most famous citizen singer rianna, who is also an ambassador for barbados. impractical terms, not that much will change, but for

a great many here. no longer having to pay tribute to a monarchy that brought her ancestors here from africa in chains is a change that was long overdue. hosea newman, al jazeera bridgetown, barbados, all the still are some countries which recognized the british monarchy. queen elizabeth is so head of state of 15 countries around the world may include canada, jamaica, the bahamas, pop on your guinea. and australia is also ahead of the commonwealth as a grouping of $54.00 former colonies and really indian nigeria, trinidad, and tobago. but the have been talks in jamaica and australia, about removing queen elizabeth as their head of state. the u. s. is officially removed, the former columbia rubble of fog from its list of terrorist organizations. the decision will allow us agencies to operate and parts of columbia, where former falk fighters live and work on signed a ceasefire. deal with the colombian government in 2016. our white house correspondent, kimberly hall,

could explain why this decision was made. know the u. s. made this announcement on the heels of a meeting between a national security council representative for latin america as well as officials in columbia. and part of the reason that this designation his being lifted now is the fact that the united states continues to conduct work in this area and is having difficulty doing so, given the fact that the designation of terror against the fark organization was still in place despite that 2016 peace accord being signed and the more than 10000 members laying down their arms and particularly in some of those areas where those members are still living, that has made us peace efforts and aid efforts difficult. so that is one of the reasons that the other rationale behind the, by the ministrations lifting of this designation is the fact that it really is not a unified organization anymore in the eyes of the biden white house. and so they

felt that it was no longer appropriate to leave it in place on a sunday ramp, yet he has more from borger top on the reactions in columbia. this is something that the people, especially in conflict there's in columbia, we're waiting for because a dies allow for a stronger implementation of a number of reforms that come with the p seal that was signed back in 2016. i'll make you an example. usa, i d, the u. s. development program until today was not allowed to work with the mobilize fighters in many corner store for cornerstone programs that have started since that deal. and also u. s. n g o could not directly work with the former fica rebels in these programs as been sold of meetings that have happened, for example, here in the capital. but that where us officials of the embassy could not stay in

the same room with the mobilized fighters when they arrive. they essentially left this complicated, greatly the possibility to move forward in the placement station of these programs that can help bring real peace in this country. after many decades of civil conflicts, so definitely in this sense, this is a major step forward. frances iran must engage constructively in discussions to salvage the 2015 nuclear deal. representatives from russia, china, germany, france, and the u. k. met randy and officials in vienna on monday. the us is there is only holding talks in directory to hon, one sanction lifted in return for limits on its nuclear programming campaign for gamblers, presidential elections in its final days. the countries seen a significant improvement in freedom of speech since 2017, as many just reports from bon jovi, gambino and now demanding more from their leaders. on gumby as paradise beach
