7:08 am
saudis to negotiate a reconfiguration of the heavy government, which itself would solve certain, you know, disputes between the southern partners in the internationally recognized government broadening for example, the sag council to, let's say call it 7, vice president. one of them is the head of the southern transitional council, which is a separate group of the south. so a lot of good things are happening all at once and it has a lot to do with internal dynamics. it with lots of was dropping her out 0 this morning. i'm hearing the saudi arabia was welcoming this decision and promising to support the m, the state with $3000000000.00 and now coding for an international conference. how, how might this build momentum towards the potential piece that where could this lead, you think, in every good direction and the fact that the both, both the saudis and the iranians welcome the truce simultaneously as a rare feat when it comes to the conflict and the fact that, you know, both are all the players,
7:09 am

7:11 am
violations of the fire and accusations back and forth. and i would suspect that politically, there aren't a lot of obstacles here. but militarily, there could be, and of course not every armed group in yemen is perfectly aligned with the 2 big factions. we talk about all the time. and so maintaining the truce and the developing cc prior will be really important for these political negotiations to proceed a pace. don't forget, negotiation just happen. happened outside the country, but we need no negotiation inside the country now. yeah, sure. as a complex situation, but a chink of lights, perhaps william laurence appreciate that. thank you. zillah had hair and al jazeera became a facet for president blaze. kemp yuri, is found guilty of the murder of his predecessor and friend, thomas and carter, who died more than 3 decades ago. and you were such shows how tiny particles, a plastic finding their way to people
