i'm carry johnston. this is the news our live from down. welcome to the program or coming up in the next 60 minutes. it's time for the i c say to take action to send a clear message to the israeli government. and to all governments. taking its case to the international criminal court, al jazeera, major network demands of investigations, the killing of journalist sharina, who actually was shot dead by israeli forces protests against the largest gun. nobody in the u. s. there are no res. annual convention gets on the wayne, texas just days off of school shooting, killed 19 children to teachers outrage across brazil after the death of a black man at the hands of police officers detained him and forced him into a smoke filled car. trunk. china says us is trying to smear its reputation off the secretary of state, outline washington's policy towards beijing, and acoustic, or becoming more aggressive add in sports. the golden state warriors reached the n

. b a finals for the 1st time since 2019. they beat the dallas mavericks in game 5 to lift the western conference trophy for the 6th time in the last 8 years. ah, a group of lawyers has announced it will take the case of the killing of al jazeera journals, schuman, i was ugly to the international criminal court, representing a palestinian journalists who say they were systematically targeted by israel. serene was shot in the head by israeli forces while on assignment in the occupied west bank on may. the 11th international center of justice for palestinians said sharon's family gave permission for its legal action. jennifer robinson is one of the bars that she says palestinian journalists are still in danger of being attacked by israeli forces as we warned in our icey se complaint back in april. the attacks on palestinian journalist by the israeli defense force have been widespread

and systematic, and the threat of it ongoing attacks against journalists is clear. sadly showing up who are close. murder is a clear demonstration of the ongoing threat posed journalists and palestinian journalist reporting in the occupied territories and an urgent need to address impunity for these attacks. while 0 media network has also decided to refer the killing overseeing arbitrary to the international criminal court, the network says it's put together a team of international legal experts. al jazeera has decided to take should he, in the case to i, c. c, to hold her kilo accountable and bring justice to shitty. in addition, al jazeera is exploring all legal, was a bill was civilities. and is it her mind to bring justice to shooting? and we will come every initiative to follow up on this guy. when the barbara

was at the press conference in london, the key message was that there is no shortage of evidence that is ready forces have targeted palestinian journalists carrying out their job and clearly marked as civilians in press jackets who have been either killed or maimed by israeli armed forces not just him in recent times, going back to 2018 and the guns border protests in which 2 of the cases in which the initial complaint, the i c. c. a centering on. but going right back many, many years there are, there are many different journalists bodies around the world who have different figures, depending on when you start. but it runs into the doesn't since the year 2000, that's journalists who have been killed in the occupied palestinian territory. most

of them were palestinian generalists. all of them were civilians, clearly marked doing their job. and in the eyes of those journalists targeted for doing so. because as we've heard, israel does not recognize the international federation of journalists press card in effect de legitimizing palestinian journalists. let's cross now to rob matheson, who's at the damascus gate in occupied east jerusalem and, and robert palestine would hope to see some tangible results from any future investigation. they would hope so, but i think it's the best way of describing it is that they are hopeful but not really confident that there is good reasons for that. as nadine was just explaining this, these cases that are coming before they are hopefully being put forward towards the international criminal court, the by the legal team are just the tip of the iceberg. there have been so many

cases of killings and injury journalists being injured, particularly those who been wearing the the, the blue press vest clearly marked with press. and on many occasions there have been attempts to bring some sort of legal proceeding in order to get hold. somebody accountable, but on all those occasions there has never been a reported success. so yes, i think job palestinians i think are, are very optimistic to an extent because of the publicity that was given to the killing of city ob lockley and the, the global reaction to that. they hope that that is going to bring attention to this problem. but they are not that optimistic about a very eventually being and the end result to all of this later. just let me briefly tell you about the, the investigation side of this that's going on here. with regard to showrooms killing, the palestinian authority is carried out its own investigation and it says that it

has clearly concluded that the bullet that killed sharon was deliberately fogged by it is rarely soldier. now it has that bullets it says, but it's not prepared to hand it over to israeli investigators. for the simple reason it says that they don't trust is really investigators to be transparent. now as far as the israeli military are concerned, they are holding their own internal investigation. but whether or not the re also that are going to be made public unless they are, when we simply don't know the israeli military police say that they are not going to hold a criminal investigation. because as far as they're concerned, there was no criminal act. so as i said, palestinians are very skeptical about the legal, any legal process when it comes to cases like this. what is interesting is that palestinians are going to be watching very closely what the i, c c does about these particular cases. the i c c says that it has acknowledged it has of are 40 within palestine and within israel,

palestinian are going to be watching to see whether or not the i c c actually takes these cases on board and if so, what kind of conclusion? the eventually of reach, the suggestion being in bed. if the i c c doesn't step up. so the mock as far as the palestinians are concerned, then the palestinians say the icy seat of last any in all credibility a might have had in this region. okay, robert matheson live 1st in occupied east jerusalem. thank you. or so sons, i here is a human rights lawyer based in haifa and explains why this legal action against israel is so important. it is true that we're talking about widespread and systematic types, deliberate attacks, not only on journalist, but also on the wider palestinian civilian population in the west bank and gaza. which, you know, a, basically a grant,

a war crime based on rom start to but was not to mention is that there's also systematic lack of accountability. i'm systematic. impunity that has been provided by the israeli investigation system, but not also that, but also even by that is we're a supreme court. and this is very important because when the legal team gets to the i, c, c and one curry con. as the prosecutor wants to open one of the 1st questions that, that he or the i c c court will examine is what has is well done in order to investigate what are the kinds of investigation they did, what are the results and how that is where a supreme court deal with and throughout the years we see not only got the investigation system that have that, that were opened. if since that and past lead 2009, for example,

or in meet 12 in guys, a 2014 in guys, a 2018 and you just name it, including even to the case of shooting of optic is that investigations are being closed, open to more head on the news are including, oh, dude, by some fear, by others. good. who's the favorite to become president in columbia? have the latest on fighting in democratic republic of congo as tens of thousands of forced from their homes. and it okay. also, this book a spot in the conference final more in that later ah, police in texas town of evolve. they are facing questions about their response to cheese days, school shooting. oh,

$19.00 children and 2 teachers were killed that rob elementary school and an 18 year old open fire. 40 say gunman at salvador ramos entered the buildings out. any confrontation, early report suggested he's engaged with an officer outside. the building authorities say the gunman barricaded himself inside a classroom and was in the building for more than an hour before police killed him or some victims family say offices should have intervened sooner. i honestly believe it could have been a little more. gra, been preventive compared to knows that i didn't feel prepared that army surely that good for other horizon. well, just 3 days after that mass shooting, the countries influential gun that lobby is holding its conventions of protest is gathering outside the national rifle association and isn't in houston,

texas. now these are live pictures us about 4 hours drive away from involving an array. faced many queens not to go ahead with its convention. and we have correspondence covering this story. kimberly how cut is in washington d. c. she'll have more on the bipartisan pushed to address gun safety. also be life involved. but 1st, let's go to john hanjin, who's in houston, texas, where the national rifle association is holding its annual convention, weller, john, that conventions going ahead despite those who may feel it really shouldn't that's right, it's going ahead for the 1st time after a 2 year pause and the panoramic and it's doing that despite the fact that even some of the participants have called for it to be called off a country singer named larry gatlin said he would schedule the thing, but he's not going to come because the idea of having in his words a big party in the same state where 21 people were massacred just 3 days ago.

seemed like a bad idea. he called for the a to call off this convention, but it is going forward. greg abbott, the governor of this state is not going to appear. he'll appear by the video, but instead he'll be at a news conference in you valley where that shooting took place. his lieutenant governor dan patrick also will not be making an appearance in the singer. don mclean, who wrote the song american pie won't be appearing as well. however, there will be a number of high profile people here and thousands of other people attending this conference, which is happening again for the 1st time in 3 years and from the podium. we can expect to hear a lot of solutions to problems like this. you can bet none of them will involve restricting guns, the kinds of things we've heard from gun supporters or that there needs to be more mental health screening and that teachers need to be armed fairly novel solutions in the only major western country where school shootings happen on a regular basis, and this is the kind of an apologetic stance we've come to expect from the national

rifle association in 1999. after the shootings in littleton, colorado, at his school there columbine. the interview held its conference in denver. not far away, so 20 years 23 years and a real similarity with what's going on today. and john, we understand that the former president, donald trump, is likely to speak there as well. that's right, that explains that heavy security. you may see around me. there are police on horseback, there are barricades all down the street in the irony here is that at this silly ration of gun rights, no one's allowed to have a gun today. that's because the secret service is taking over security here so they will be stopping people from entering that building with guns. whereas normally you would see displays of weaponry inside. and the exhibition all you would see people carrying openly out in the street that is not allowed to day on this 1st day of

this 3 day convention and from president trump. we can also expect to hear an unapologetic support for gun rights in the past. he's hedges back a little bit. he suggested at one time that there should be a limit on bunk stocks. those are devices that will turn a regular gun into something more like a machine gun. he backed off of that and since then he's been a pretty proud unapologetic supporter of gun rights and in just a few hours this afternoon. i think we can expect him to expound on that thing. okay, for now, john engine at that convention in houston, texas. thank you for staying with this let sat now speak to n b c. news report at wendy woolfolk in evolve, texas and wendy community still very much in well shock and grief. it is, it carry good afternoon to you, this shifting timeline and the emerging details from the texas department of public

safety though are making a pain and suffering in this small south texas town. even worse. one of the heartbreak and broken mothers who lost her 10 year old daughter told us she couldn't imagine why a brand new skill school building would have been left unlocked. and that is how the shooter made access to the school and other parents you ran frantically to the building when they heard that there was an active shooter on campus. they can't understand why it took an hour for a tactical team to be cold in. and then ultimately shoot and kill the suspect when there were so many other responding officers on this campus and, and ready to go in. what is important, though, to note carry on the other side is the situation was very fluid here. if they had to secure the perimeter, so no one else gets hurt and

a lot of those officers were going in and breaking windows so that other students and teachers could get out of their respective classrooms. while that gunman was hold up inside, there is another, another press conference scheduled with either the texas department of public safety basically in the next hour here local time. we're hoping for some more clarification. yesterday's press conference, got a little contentious and it absolutely made people have more questions despite all of their answers. so we are crossing our fingers that we get a little bit more clarification. the sad note here is this community is embarking on the 1st of 21 funerals. think about that number 21 next week. they are bearing 19 children and 2 aerobic teachers. this community has a whole and its heart that will forever be open. that's the latest here. live in the valley, texas. i'm wendy. will folks back to you, wendy?

thanks very much indeed for that update. i. whitehouse correspondence. kimberly how could join just now and kimberly are the signs of any kind of legislative movement on this. there are some signs and this is a hopeful sign to many of the united states who have felt that past tragedies have really resulted in very little change. and so when this tragedy in texas occurred, there was a lot of shrugging your shoulders and fear that this was going to be similar to many other past tragedies. in other words, that nothing was going to prevent the next one. but what we're seeing are some hopeful signs in the u. s. senate that a handful of republicans that previously had blocked to efforts in the house of representatives to get some gun control legislation through that could prevent similar types of tragedies the, this time they're actually talking. it's

a bipartisan group of both democrats and republicans. it consists of about 10 members. and why is this important? well, in a 100 member senate where basically you've got a 5050 split of 50 democrats, 50 republicans, and you need 60 to pass legislation. you're going to need at least 10 republicans to get on board with democrats in order to push this legislation through. and that's been the big obstacle in the past. now some republicans are entertaining ideas such as potentially red flag laws that would keep guns out of the hands of the mentally ill or those that could harm others. and shouldn't have a gun. potentially. also some expanded background checks even more funding for school security. and there is some discussion about reviving something that had been in place in the ninety's worked very well, was allowed to phase out unless the assault weapons ban attempt to revive it in 2013 that failed. and now there's some discussion that maybe there this could be

revived. so this is all looking promising for those that are hopeful to try and prevent these types of tragedies. we're even hearing there might be a vote as early as june, but again, this is just from the discussion phase. so long way to go. kimberly, how can live at the white house for us there? thank you. mexico's foreign minister says gun companies must also be held accountable for the texas school shooting mexican government launch legal action last year against us weapons manufacturers accusing them or being responsible for the flood of illegal guns into the country. i mean, if use them, if there is placement negligence on the part of this industry and we are not going to give up, we are going to persist for a young person to be sold. an assault weapon at the age of 18, leads to this kind of tragedy. the killing of an unarmed black man by police has led to outrage across brazil. a video of the incident went viral on social media. a

warning now you may find the following images in victoria getting these report disturbing that it's still got a thing to police officers pin down jenny valdez to hey, so santos, a black man. they say with resisting arrest. they then trap him inside the smoked fil trunk. of their police car, a real look at the man there. oh my god, that killing him inside the car says one witness. video of the incident went viral on social media. her tests have been held in his home town of m bow, but in ne, in brazil, and shock and outrage expressed across the country for years. human rights activists of accused police in brazil, of discrimination, brutality and excessive fools. on tuesday, the day before santos died, thousands of people was shot dead during a police raid on a criminal gang in rio de janeiro. yes. oh gosh assumable left of update. yes, another massacre and if a valid truly shocking,

we cannot allow it to be normal that the state enters of her valor and lees with 20 or more dead relatives of santos say he was unarmed and suffering from heart problems and skits, of freeney the federal highway police have opened an investigation into his death in a statement. they said santos was actively resisting the officers who pulled him over . they immobilized him then used instruments of less offensive potential to contain him. santos was taken to hospital. doctors say he was dead when he arrived at the emergency room. the officers involved have been suspended, but many in brazil fear this may be another example of institutional brutality and racism within the police. victoria gate and be al jazeera or the latest to on this were joined by 1 o'clock innocuous in rio de janeiro. so that is your thoughts. his response thus far, lock you to satisfy it to given the number of previous cirrus instance.

well our know, in this case particular case, it's very obvious by a, i mean the footage just shows that it was a very brutal our reaction and necessary and cruel. he was stopped to jenny about the was stopped because he was not wearing a helmet while driving a motorcycle. so he wasn't a threat to where he was. he was tied, he was thrown in the trunk. the police officers that were involved in the kids admitted that they threw him in the trunk and used pepper gas and tear gas, which just makes no sense at all. so this case is being investigated, but it's a pretty much, ah, obvious case of, of police brutality. whereas the shootings that happen all we are quite frequently here in brazil. ah, those happen because there is a lack of government presence in the poor neighborhoods. so drug gangs have taken

over and also a former policeman who act as a mob of gangsters because they charge people for security. they like here in rio de janeiro. there are, there are occupying like 60 percent of the territory and, but that does not justify in any way the police going into these places and shooting, having these shoot out because many innocent have died last year, 6000 brazilians were killed by police by the police whereas 183 police officers were killed are during these are shoot outs. ok, thank you. want to clean our kids at large 1st in rio de janeiro in let's get some more on this now. loaders here, dora is a poet, psycho analyst, academic and black rights activists in brasilia, the brazilian capital. and she joins us from there. thanks for being with us here on the program, in your opinion, how widespread is police violence there?

oh oh, well, how wide spread do you think this is? i think how wide i think all over the counter in her we are having a great and important her reaction against this cruelty in this survivor. he has a really and it's a kind of for extreme violence that, that come upon us. because i think it's 1st to you, we're getting very used to be to, to see a policy or a higher thing or black people, mostly young people on not only in the lands on very 50, but also believe the center of the child that kind of frequent you mediation by almost all times answering what are the,

are water p a for it center as if we went a allowed to be everywhere, as in the city, brazilian city and today with violence. i think it's a kind of showing us how far they can go without being punished, officially in legally punished for their crimes. because this is not a lot of a loyal it. hello. hello. is this kind of a level how to say without long as if we were account without laws to protect our human rights, that is not protection of black people rights in review at all. and at this moment, i know that the home is someone does not the now does it 2 months from owner that has been in brazil recently has appointed se the loss of the

level of violence by police against black people. ok, let me move on to that. give me for interrupting. let me just ask you, to what extent would you say that minorities seem to be targeted and, and why is that? ah, this is a race. it's a real reason above all, which comes from a long way from now, from slavery to now i think there are 346 years of exclusion of blood neutral from this side into our find all this time. or we're having all right, respected not to want to can see now is the wide spread cautiousness off need of been together and frightened together against the girl was off is all full wireless in brazil, originators or g

b. i actions have been, are being taken or are taken now against these and asking for justice of course. and i think the court least coalition black coalition for right on that is real. but all over the country we have a minute then say some of the like movement in brazil, it can really season into, you know, giving form to us to help from international organizations that can help to us to defend our rights in brazil. because i don't think we can anymore count on brazilian state to protect our i. okay, we have to leave it there. load as tier door. we do very much appreciate your time . thank you very much for attention. we're still ahead on al jazeera

over the past 2 months, an estimated 6000 refugees have crossed this border into the gambia as fighting players again inside senate, all we need to some of those forced to flee and japan tests to return to terrorism on keeping its borders closed more than 2 years, and they transport the golden state warriors some 1st team to reach the any a fighters. ah right, well the wind is still blowing in the middle east quickly down the gulf. it's been doing it for a few days now. it gets stronger, it backs off, it's always all one. and sometimes it's full of dust. it's full of dust the moment, but not as full. this is the picture of just a, so we got to forecast. it's not limiting temperatures, it's $42.00 in the forecast. the hottest probably in q 8. same is true and our

little bit less because the on shore breeze in dubai. and the average darby. they're mostly raping sir. no, all the radio to it will be dry. i am ignoring this you shout in the only mountains could be very few of them and the breeze is still blowing, but becoming lighter. what showers they were in turkey had gone away. temperatures are rising in turkey too, and they are rising again. i think in the bill of iraq and afghanistan having dropped down recently, you know, so changed monday above the increase in the breeze and dust or sand of the atmosphere. once again, nothing much has changed and knows you expected to. but with the incoming monsoon rain heading across the raven sea for india, you might hope to see more and where shout in the horn of africa. not much, but some, but i'm afraid the drought does prevail. we don't expect a great deal of rain here. there is something coming in to cape town though. a significant rain in wind, i think for sunday, and monday, possibly tuesday, ah, ah,

for over a century american parents have entrusted their sons to the boy scouts of america, hoping they would gain skills that would improve their lives. instead, countess young lives were ruined by predators within the organization. i knew there was so much, but i could not figure out where it was coming from. in a 3 part series full blinds investigates, a massive scandal that wrote the united states scoutmaster part to on a just either examining the impact of today's headlines yesterday. our electricity was talking to francisco pol alive setting the agenda for tomorrow's discussion. if somebody comes to gonna from europe, the never called an immigrant, the always known as an x path, international filmmakers and world class journalists bring programs to inform and inspire. we live one people on this one planet and we've got to work the solutions

together. on al jazeera lou ah, the watching out as a reminder of our top stores as a group of lawyers has announced it will take the case of the killing of al jazeera journalist should be in activate. the international criminal court in was shot in the head by israeli forces by the assignment in the occupied west bank. earlier this month, the testers are gathering outside the national rifle associations, annual meeting in houston, texas. and our a has been criticized for holding its convention just days off to gun and open fire to school in the building, texas 19 children and 2 teachers with

those been outrage in brazil after video emerge of the lease, killing an unarmed black man. i've seen the forcing him to the back of that smoke feel vehicle and hold me died just the governor of ukraine's the hands creed and that says, 2 thirds of the city of severity on the exc is now surrounded by russian forces. 90 percent of homes that have been damaged by shilling. ukraine admits russia has an advantage in the eastern region. more than 40 towns have been shelled there and in the neighborhood from yeske. while ukrainian forces are engaged in a fierce battle, incidentally, on the esc pro russian forces say they've taken control of the strategic town of women. ukrainian, russian forces have been fighting for control of the town for several days now.

with a massive de mining operation is underway in ukraine, russian forces have left the minds behind or to retreating from towns near keith. same was raw. the reports from boucher, the united nations estimates that ukraine is now. one of the most heavily mind countries in the world and not just because of the most recent russian invasion that's been going on for months now. but from a conflict that's been raging in the east of the country since 2014. since the invasion began, russia has left so much an exploded ordinance, and so many land mines all over the country. experts here in ukraine estimate that it could take as much as 5 years to clear the areas that have been re taken by the ukrainian government. the mining teams like these ones are carrying out regular sweeps on land in farming communities in residential areas, as well as bodies of water, all around the key region, as well as all around the country mines, unexploded ordnance, all these things remain

a serious and imminent threat people have set them off as well as tractors and fields, cars on the roads, even after russia has retreated from a lot of these areas, there continue to be losses of life and property from the things that they've left behind. in fact, every single national park and forest area in cuba is currently off limits because of the threat of mines that might be there as well as us. so one explode ordinance . the government says they have $500.00 d mining experts that are currently operating and that's for the whole country. a country that is one of the largest in europe, and they need to train up 500 more. still a drop in the bucket for what needs to be done. they need more experts that can be mine areas and deal with unexploded ordnance. they need more vehicles as well. that can then carry those mines and explosives away to areas where they can carry out controlled explosions and, and get rid of the threat. the slow pace of this work means that it is taking

longer for people to return to their homes and towns and cities that have been re taken by the ukrainian government. this, as russian forces that have re mobilized from areas like this on to the east and the south continue to gain ground and population centers, other towns and cities continue to fall to the russian advance, the president of better. ruth has announced plans to send the troops to an area that borders southern ukraine. alexander lucas shanker discussed the move with the officials on thursday, but a roost is considered a close ally of russia and has often been blamed for helping the kremlin carry out his invasion of ukraine, which began earlier this year for you. and it says 70000 people have fled that fighting in democratic republic of congo. in the past 4 days, government forces are battling rebels from him. 23 group and he conquered ease of sort, refuge in neighboring uganda are come. web reports, the 10s of thousands of people in the east of the democratic republic of congo

have fled their homes in fear of their lives, environment and it was m 23 rebels. that's what chasing us. the n 23 rebel grief is taken. several small towns, some of the residents have fled to neighboring uganda, others towards the regional capital goma churches and schools like this one over run with people seeking shelter. luna merger. we saw people being killed by stray bullets and those who could save themselves here. the congo is ami launched a counter offensive and be taken some of the territory. congo government says neighboring veranda is behind them. 23. supporting it with weapons and soldiers. rwanda denies it. the post. so we have the government. don't believe that the m. 23 rebels themselves have the military equipment which they claim to have on the grounds, according to the reports from our soldiers. this is why our suspicion of foreign

support is confirmed. 10 years ago and 23 took control of swathes of eastern congo . you and investigators said it was backed by rwanda. congress army eventually defeated them with military support from the un and other african countries. this time, congos army has struggled to contain the attacks launched by n 23 over the last 6 months. both uganda and rwanda have been accused of fueling congo conflicts and looting mineral edison. they invaded in the $990.00, a recent attempt to get the 3 president's together for talks and kenya's capital. my roby failed to produce results. the violence in humanitarian crisis a growing and the un says it's deeply concerned malcolm web al jazeera armed conflict. in the custom answer, regional center goal is sending a steady stream of refugees into the gambia authorities say tens of thousands living in the border region have been displaced and its fear. the number was rise

as fighting escalates and interests reports from the cynical can be a border. with in less of 2 wins. the gum being village of jack has seen its population swell by 17 percent. oh, if it's just 1300 meters from the trouble senegalese region of cosmos. it's one of the 1st point, of course for refugees. whatever fighting flows up on the wrong modulus, camara didn't want to leave her home at 1st. she was 9 months pregnant. but as fighting intensified, she changed her mind now to take a full mouth and i had no luck when the drones started dropping their bones, i decided it was time to leave everything behind to save myself and my unborn child . i'm tired of running a pie, a boy junk now once to make the gambia, his permanent tool, having been displeased 4 times since 1982, you will not alma, there's nothing to go back to them. i just want to have some peace in life before i

die, lou. running back with very few resources new arrivals, look up to refugees like momma nessie who's been in the gambia for nearly 30 years . we can write about any and a by deborah, we make money working menial jobs. it's would that income that we support ourselves and newly arrived. arguably, my just workers speak of unexploded ordnance is literally the border area between cumbia and san diego. it's not, it's safe for us as that now for both living within the body. so it's not safe for them to place on it. and what about, as well as most cost, what are my parents, who i, we didn't amendment to also go back to the casa, the cousin was cancelled broke out in 1982. when rebels launch a sufficient campaign to break away from senegal, the conflict has forced more than 10000 people from their homes. hopes for a peaceful resolution came, one rebels declared

a unilateral cease fire. but expectations were dashed when hospitality resumed in january. this year, cousin month lies behind this bush. over the past 2 months, an estimated 6000 refugees have caused this border into the gambia with fighting flaring up again more i expected. but after 4 decades of conflict, resources are overstretched, along with the patients of some of the host border communities here in the gambia or the current bill trip build up and fighting in because a mouse, many refugees, t a things could get to far in the coming months before they get any better. how many degrees? algebra o, but on the come be us any got border? un security council has a fail to agree on tougher sanctions on north korea. of the china and russia oppose . the move cancels at 13 other members voted in favor of a resolution put forward by the u. s. penalties sorta to reduce the amount of oil at north korea can import in response to recent missile tests. but they jane and

moscow called for renewed dialogue with john young. we will not allow this vote to be set back, however, we will not stay silent. we will not ignore these threats just as we will not ignore the horrific human rights violations and abuses happening in the dpr k, including the abduction issue. officials in beijing are accusing washington's top diplomat of smearing china during a speech to outline us policy towards beijing. secretary of state antony lincoln, one that beijing is a threat to the international order. she had returned c, ripple's. this was a speech that secretary of state lincoln had been scheduled to give before the u. s . president trip to asia as a cup and razor. but it had to be postponed because he contracted cove it in the interim confusion was sewn by joe biden. when he gave this answer during his tour.

are you willing to get involved militarily to defend taiwan if it comes to that? yes. so in part, the secretary of state's task now was to explain whether us policy towards taiwan had shifted. our policy is not changed. we do not support taiwan independence and we expect prostrate differences to be resolved by peaceful means. i'm going can read out the portion of us law of encapsulates washington's position of so called strategic ambiguity to maintain our capacity to resist any resort to force or other forms. of course, that would jeopardize our security or the social or economic system of taiwan. the problem is, joe biden wasn't ambiguous at all, and this isn't the 1st time he spoken at all with official us policy. so the question does remain, how's policy changed quietly behind the scenes? or is this just a matter of a president giving his personal views off the cuff, the rest of lincoln speech presented a stark geopolitical framework of china versus the international order. lincoln

insisted the u. s. does not want a new cold war of opposing regional blocks. yet, at the same time, he talented the new alliances, the u. s. was making in opposition to china. this is not about forcing countries to choose. it's about giving them a choice. the speech is likely to be viewed skeptically. in beijing, the speech will be seen in beijing, us, hypocritical, and be ruling that the fight and administration is picking a cold war mentality to deal with the problem. in spite of entity blink and saying exactly the opposite, china is clearly crept to the international order as governed by the rules set by the united states and it's western allies. but it's not yet clear. if none of 9 countries feel this geo political change is necessarily a bad thing. she ever time see al jazeera washington colombians add to the poles on sunday to elect a new president for candidates vying for the top job. for the 1st time

discontented those outraged by the countries widening inequality. before the protests had been very inactive politically, but with all the injustices and killings, i could not remain indifferent. it was the desire pink to be different for us. both that it is backed by many poor and working class colombians, but viewed with alarm by business men and some middle class photos. they fear his plans to fault oil development, already tribute pension funds, to put economic stability at risk. this letter sent by the manager of one of the biggest mail companies in the country, urging suppliers not to vote for petro went viral last week. it says, pay through with put that risk private property and the freedom of enterprise in the country. a federal clause has also been added to a number of contracts this year, allowing the parties to scrap the deal. if the former get comes to power,

40000000 arrival in 2020. when the pandemic happens. ironically, the start of the pandemic that decimated the tourism sector was heralded by an outbreak on a cruise ship that had docked in yokohama. the olympics were delayed by a year while the country virtually closed its borders. the area which was the athletes village is now under development as memories fade of those ill fated games . and japan can look ahead to reopening to tourism once more cautiously and okay. okay, there are other reopening will happen gradually. and 1st with packet stores organized, but the travel agencies, though, are fears that are rushed. reopening might see a resurgence in coven 19 cases. don't seem to bother a population, apparently. suffering pandemic, fatigue, gnashing, but of course i worry about covet, but overall it's a good thing that almost i'll continue being cautious,
