presences within the organization, i nearly was so like, oh, but i could not figure out where it was coming from in a 3 part series full blinds investigates, a massive scandal that raw the united states scoutmaster part one on al jazeera. ah, this is al jazeera ah, i'm lauren taylor. this is down there and use our live from london coming up, finland and sweden formerly apply to join nato. a turkey blocks a vote to begin the process. will st, closes 4 percent down, driven by rising inflation as a worn ukraine helps to push op food and fuel prices around the world. the u. s. is, is some sanctions on venezuela to try to encourage talks between president nicholas

madura and the opposition the u. n. warns key climate change indicators have hit record highs, calling for an urgent transition to renewable energy. and i'm heat assembling. bo, how with your sports? the rober league final is heading to extra time. ranges were leading before entre frankfurt equalized highlights later in the news. our aah! begin in brussels, where finland and sweden have submitted their formal applications to join nato. both countries have long stayed neutral, but russia's invasion of ukraine has rapidly shifted public opinion in favor of joining the alliance. now turkey is blocking nato from even beginning the process. the turkish president accuses the to nordic countries of harboring articles, kurdish terrorists not on dennis. them as the position of nato's enlargement would

be meaningful for us as long as our sensitivities are respected. giving all kinds of support to the p k. k into the y p g terrorist organizations, and asking us for support for nato membership of amounts to say the least to inconsistency and how you've targeted nato beat grand lake, although sure will do. big nato is the security entity hallway. therefore, we cannot say yes to deprive this security organization security gets current in a 5 nato members. chair land borders with russia include, a stone is and latvia is entire eastern frontiers. norway just touches russia in the arctic circle. while if you and your and poland flank the baltic, ex clave of kellen in grad fillings, membership of nature would add 1300 kilometers to the lances. land border with russia were doubling its length often in the prime minister. once nato members to

ratify applications. as soon as possible, i think at this stage we have to give our eyes on the ball and that is very smooth and fast ratification of our membership in every native member country. so this is what we are focusing now. and i think our most important job in nato is to defend our own country, our own region, also making sure that the whole nordic northern region is secure. president joe biden said the u. s. will work with finland and sweden, while the membership is being considered, is national security advisor james sullivan says the administration is confident the process will go ahead. we're confident that at the end of the day, feminine sweden will have been effective and efficient a session process. the turkey's concerns can be addressed from then in sweden or working directly with turkey to do this. but we're also talking to the church to

try to help facilitate i spoke with my counterpart today. secretary blinking is meeting with his counterpart perhaps as we speak in new york, and we feel very good about where this will track to and fish joins us live now from washington dc. and now on the bottom, administration seems keen to make this work exactly, even though you have the turkish president saying, there are problems. i think they're basing their optimism on the fact that he didn't see nor need never in looking at the the way that there could be some sort of movement. certainly the white host, joe biden, jim sullivan, the national security adviser. they have been pretty confident since the very early stages of sweden and finland, seeing that they were interested in natal membership, believing that they could steal through. and as you heard from jack sullivan, he spoke to his turkish counterpart, anthony blinking, having a similar sort of meeting with his counterpart at the united nations. joe biden believes that nato will be stronger. he thinks it will send

a very clear message to russia and to others, thinking that russia's plan in attacking ukraine was to try and weaken nato believing that some natal members simply wouldn't step up simply wouldn't follow the u. s. lead. and joe biden is essentially pointing to the fact that natal could become stronger with an expanded membership because of what has happened in ukraine . in fact, he put out a statement just the last few hours, seeing that he is looking forward to welcoming the leaders of finland and sweden to the white house on thursday. adding that the united states is firmly committed to nato and also the commitment to article 5. that is, if you attack one, you attack all that is absolutely iron clad, and he believes that the ascension of both finland and sweden to nito will be relatively problem free. they still have the issue to deal with the turks. the

turks are deeply concerned about some of the stances that finland and sweden have taken in the past, particularly when it comes to the p. k. k and turkey. but it's clear that this white house doesn't believe that those obstacles are insurmountable. and fisher, thank you very much indeed. or who? yeah, georgia is a former advisor to nature. she was a director at the middle east institutes frontier europe initiative to us now by skype. washington, thanks very much indeed for being with us. so what do you think it will take to, to bring turkey on the side here for the so nature session of finland and sweden? well, president or airline has already hinted or actually directly said some of the issues that that turkey has since 2019 sweden and finland have joined the arms embargo against turkey due to some of its actions in syria. and so president or dawn has already said that he can not accept new members off nato that are

sanctioning turkey. now that's one of the demons. and there's probably further issues that turkey has and would like to have resolved. we've been, it's complicated. no role in nato as a balancer, as having dependence, the high dependent on russia when it comes to energy when it comes to economy and when it comes to the war in syria. and so it's a matter of un arms embargo that is, that turkey would like to be lifted. and also off you sanctions. this has not been set directly, but nevertheless must be on turkey's agenda. you sanctions against turkey drilling in the mediterranean. so it seems like turkey is trying to bargain from its position right now to be able to get some advantages to its national security with, with the entry of sweden and finland in tomato. and this issues are resolved. what

do friendliness we'd bring to nature they bring a lot, a thing to the whole alliance. we are now facing this major russian aggression and invasion off ukraine. and 14 has always said that a falsely, that nato is a threat to the alliance and dead to, to russia. sorry. and that the alliance is in, circling in, circling russia with the entry of particularly finland with a large order to russia. but also sweden, or indeed the, the alliance gets a lot more strength and more to terrance when it comes to russian aggression said something that he wanted to prevent in the 1st place when he issued those letters to nato and to the united states. back in the winter and it seems now that he is getting the contrary with a very cool response, by the way,

a very calm one saying this was never an issue kind of denying initial position. so there's a lot to gain for, for the alliance as well. because both countries are very good in, in their ministry, in their national security. and they would bring also geographical and geopolitical strength to the baltic in the northern region. you mentioned putins reaction that just in passing, what did you say to you? the fact that it was quite muted in some ways, given the fact that she originally, as you was saying nature management was one of the big problems that he seemed to be identifying and giving an excuse to, to invade ukraine. yes, it is quite paradoxical to i've been in on, on this side of the atlantic, but it is a classic called manner off russian negotiation. something that the prime minister of estonia also points out very well. the russians are always maxima in their

d mass without offering anything in exchange in this is what they've done in the winter. and so because they've got nothing in exchange, it was impossible for the west and for the united states to just give up the sovereignty of other countries like ukraine. they have, they have invaded ukraine. now they are minimizing their demands when it comes to nato with been in sweden. and so have we seen the same pattern with ukraine winning so far as this conflict? in the early months, they have retreats, retreated from the position of demilitarized being so called, need not to find ukraine, and we see that on the ground as well. so with more resolution on the western side, and particularly the alliance in its response to russian aggression, the more we will get when it comes to peace and security in europe unions. georgia, thank you very much. need for talking to thank you. thank you for having me. are

discuss mexico's insistence on every country in the region invited to next month summit, and repro has more from mexico city. the summit of the americas is only 3 weeks away, and the united states is essentially scrambling over the deathless. now, all of this begins with the president of mexico, essentially saying that he would not attend the summit of the americas unless every country of the americas is in attendance. specifically speaking about cuba in his willa and nicaragua, now since then, other leaders in the region have expressed similar sentiments. this includes the presidents of brazil and of guatemala, who also said they would not attend the summit unless every country of the western hemisphere is in attendance. what's been surprising to many is exactly how much influence the mexican president is able to wield on this topic so much so that the

united states has already sort of sort of ease certain restrictions and policies toward cuba and toward venezuela. now, mexico is also going to be hosting a 4th round of negotiations between been as well as government and the vin as well . an opposition here in the near future. the position essentially that mexico's president is taking right now is that the region is in desperate need of multilateral solutions. specifically to the growing number of migrants arriving on the us. mexico border specifically migrants that arriving from countries like cuba, venezuela and nicaragua, the president of mexico saying that these solutions are unattainable unless everyone has a seat at the table has more still to come. this hour from schools on libby is rival prime minister, is defined a political solution to stop and not a civil war. we insult. why a path between the solomon islands and china has become a major security issue in australia is upcoming federal election and they transport

. they broke out when the prime minister appointed by the eastern parliament fatty by shaka, tried to take over the capital. he was forced out and says, you will base his government ensued. olivia split between rival powers in the east and west in 2014. but last year there were hopes of progress towards unification with the rival powers cooperating. i've had to pay that was installed in march as head of the us back government of national unity in tripoli. in the west, he was tossed with leading the country to national elections in december. but the post didn't happen. eastern base parliament declared the government invalid. and in february this year, to pointed fatty shaka, as prime minister, a minister baber, and the western based authority have refused to recognize a shock is government. they say they'll only see power to a nationally elected leader. the 2 legislative bodies are supposed to agree on a new unity government. those have fighters loyal to them, and their fears. and if

a political solution can't be found, there will be another civil war. and that is the founder and director. they said i can sit here, which is the 1st public policy, think tank in libya jointed me now from london. so what about a child situation again in libya? why did i decide to get chippy? because he knew he could. and i think we've seen this part of the film before. i had to have a shot behind the scenes car deal with a long time spoiler, a long time war criminal for after and after was not powerful enough to enter the city himself. he lost the battle for tripoli, in fact, against him when he was the ministry of interior of the last government. but since making a deal together in the east. and so the bank ozzy and so brook they have now polluted to try to creep into the city of the dead of night. 3 in the morning a spark, a war in the knowledge. the international community won't do anything about it. number one, because that consumed all the bandwidth is consumed by ukraine,

the number to recent history shows that they can. i mean the last time this happened and tenure gets errors was interpreted, un chief himself on april 4th doesn't one scene. and under a barrage of bullets did not come out and can them sleep after because the permanent members of the security council wouldn't let him, including russia and france. and then later france wouldn't allow for a statement to condemn him or sanction. so once you've joined that side and you've rehabilitated someone after the sky's the limit, and i think that's today where the civil christine lies. the emboldened by western or international inaction and this hope of doing it. and that of nights or this callous kind of disregard for human life is something that they're unable to do because international. what do anything about it? or there are talks going on in egypt. what if anything, can we expect it to come out of those? we have a date where we have any progress, like do you think very little. i think that the competitors in egypt and addressing the conflict. those 2 institutions that are sitting in egypt were elected 10 years

. 8 years ago, respectively. they have extended the mandate for several years. if they come to a deal to continue rehabilitating themselves and extending them and rejecting elections, then they will do so they don't care about the big ticket items that libyans care about. and let's be clear. libya is covered in crime scene type. that's the reality . the end of the wars are not. these words that we use to describe events that don't take place on earth. there are war crimes or a body still being exempt. kilometers from tripoli. there are land mines that still continue to kill. could of the last human rights which reports $136.00 libyans like this year without bullet b r land mines. this is the reality today, libya and the and the individuals responsible for it name the helicopter narrative shows connecting with them. russian mercenaries your thousands in the numbers who are still in the country. they are the ones responsible and no one is talking about them, including these 2 bottom instead of sitting in cora, been discussing extending their own mandates or years, if not by decades,

if they can. whilst the rest of the country is include many of triple immune system . so the population lives in triple tamia. they want that they, they want these individuals to have their day in court. they don't want to see them rewarded with an extension of them. and they, or, you know, old wine in the bottles the with is we have to offer. and this could be in a children's playing games with new governments. really. you mentioned in passing, that proxy forces that have operated in in libya in the past. and get what you say about the kind of lack of progress that you expect from with, with it, with the international community. i mean how, how do you say you see it playing out in the baby? is there ever a chance to, to have a centralized government then? and if so, what does the international community need to do to, to write that? and is that the right thing to, for, for libya, was searching that needs to be done here. and it's clearly, you know, libyans wouldn't be able to do some stuff. and when we talk about libyans, who do we mean if we mean this political elites that are interested in power any course, then you know, so, and it doesn't know then, so it's a gauge. the groups on the ground that have been forcing the number of libyans that
