6:03 pm
taneesha as so, the thing inside isn't resulting in the real problems. that's nation is facing, which is shortage is grain and an economic crisis which is getting worse was rising prices. but what he seems to be doing is ramping up the sort of populace narrative that he's been pushing that it's, yeah, all the correct politicians fault. and he's, he's racing that gender again and appearing to do something by pushing for more prosecutions and mold jail senses. says boy, what's he saying is that the corrupt people that have caused the problems? i. so i think that there will be an intensification that there will be more protests, i know be i sort of pushing back between the pro side and the anti site movements and things again to heat up in the next and a 6 to 7 weeks. as we run up to the referendum, which the protesters don't believe will be fat. and i think it's just
6:04 pm
a gateway. so opening to news, you're up to presidential system that so thorough tearing and dictatorship. well, it said take a look at what led people engineered to protest against the referendum on a new constitution of presidents. i eat it psyched his government and froze parliament last july. and what his opponents called acute in september, he gave himself power to rule by decree. and in february this year, so he dissolved an independent judiciary council and appointed a replacement, a month later. he says his actions will preserve the state. i'm its institutions, its takes on johnny's now from tunis. is a political unless, i mean it's new. see, i mean, welcome to the program that you see. this is an attack on democracy or a war on freedom to what degree is your view supported around the country or not? well, my view is not supposed to be around the country. hello and thanks for the invite. what i just trying to do is deflect the responsibility so it doesn't assume any so
6:05 pm
he can vote well his great display school skill is always on the new schedule because the problem is then it was just this, then the n g o. and now it seems to be the union and it built his whole campaign. i only got the fusion. so for the average canadian i cited cannot govern while being the most powerful president. we have 2011 and freezing the fall and having a strong hold of justice holding strongly, holding some really important justice. so it seems to me that the emptiness is project will be seen once. there will be no one left. and that's the, the moment will realize that he has no project whatsoever for social issues or economical issues. right. exactly, because at the moment he sees me acting, the student freedom to dissolve this as you say, dismiss that too much power you would say will did by one man. how does he gone of
6:06 pm
the support? how does he managed to get away with your view? well, he gets away with it because he's always acting like he cannot govern. he's always saying in his his words that he says that there is so much influence that you cannot exercises while having, having everything around him. he has no, oh no, he doesn't have a followers. he has a government that you can bypass at any time he has all the oldest invoice event. so that's just a communication. actually a d r. busy nicely done by that may seem responsible of any economical or social issues. and as far as the upcoming referendum is concerned, you would say that it will not be free, fair or what your position. well,
6:07 pm
it's only fair. find them even the most waste of direct link between the people and the president, the president will use that to justify on democracy. absolutely. you say that the people gave him permission to do that while they did, and they just gave their opinion on one single issue. and then opinion vote can thing between and yes and no. now we are only hearing what i was offering. we are not hearing the opponents are not hearing any political opponents. we are only hearing the presidential side. you're with the so i was just going to say you're in your early twenties, that you are a child goes when the arab spring began. there's years ago. what do you and your generation engineer feel about where we're at now to be cared myself. i'm the students in journalism and voice. ready compensation and i'm scared of. busy this country will be hearing me and we are leaning towards the new so we

6:10 pm
across the board, but it is several nets that remains the point of fiercest fighting at the moment in this war. that is still the case. it's been the case for several days now and what we're hearing is that ukrainians are very concerned that what's happening there is what the russians have done in mario poll, which is they are trying to completely erase that city. and if they can't hold it, then they will make it an occupy level for anyone trying to come back. and that is the main concern right now. but in, despite that what we've heard from president zalinski, even though there are reports of russia, is pushed back against a counter offensive with the latest information from the ukranian side is, is that they have managed to push russian forces back from the city center and have taken back 20 percent of separate done. that's kind of that was a very different from the reporting that we heard just 24 hours ago. that 80 percent of the city was in russian control. and a fall of that city was eminent within weeks with ukrainians. are now saying, is that that fall now is far less likely. this is the city that has been contested
6:11 pm
for a month. and ukraine says that it will remain contested. and every inch of space will cost russia more lives and more material in terms of armaments and ammunition. what we are also hearing is that $100.00 days into the fight with the latest intelligence reports from ukraine's western allies. the british defense ministry says is that there's been a noticeable optic in the amount of air power being used by russian forces in the don bus region to support its ground troops and its artillery units. it says that the use of air power includes both guided and unguided bombs, which is causing collateral damage and civilian areas, and crucially an estimated high number of civilian casualties. now even if this, as this concept goes on, there is a small glimmer of hope. there does seem to be some negotiated settlement between the ukrainians and the russians. we're just getting a report from the printer inside of there has been an agreement to exchange bodies
6:12 pm
of those killed on either side. overhearing 160 bodies from the ukrainian side will be traded for 160 bodies on the russian side. or they live in there for a minute. thanks very much for that update numbers roughly reporting. well, the war is affecting commodity prices around the world. senior analysts from the us food and agriculture organization told down to 0, the developing world is most at risk. kimball has this report, the more than a 100 days into the war in ukraine and the fighting is intensifying in the east. far from the front lines, the conflict impacting the global food supply, especially in africa, which imports 40 percent of its grain from russia and ukraine. the chair of the african union traveling the so cheat to help get deliveries back on track. of course i spoke to the european council and i told them yes, there is a war the crisis, but there's also sanction we should work together on resolving these 2 problems.
6:13 pm
and make sure that everything concerning food and green supplies and outside the sanction there's his meeting, president putin ended with a promise easy export of grain from russian control ports. putin blaming the west for using moscow as a scapegoat. now it will show you of course, now we see an attempt to shift responsibility for the global food crisis to russia . this attempt, as all people like to say, is an attempt to shift from a sick head to a healthy one. food prices have shown up across africa since russia invaded ukraine with fears of famine and the un warning of mass migration. if food doesn't reach african shores, russia is played hunger being recently to put the blame on crane and others. ok ukrainians. you ah, so basically they are saying that the imminent hunger in africa elsewhere
6:14 pm

6:34 pm
to accomplish what he's about to do, but really is being sort of oppose by the entire political class. almost all of the political parties are really opposed to his project and saying that they, they disagree with the way that he's, he's conducted things. launching a national dialogue that they see is not really inclusive in which they have not been consulted. also people have raised alarm bells about the moved to say that they're concerned that the referendum vote and even maybe grab parliamentary vote later in december may not be as free and fair as the previous election. on top of the fact that the president has said that he would not like to be international observers. international interference and sneezes affairs has also certainly raised alarm bells in international circles about the potential about elections, maybe not being quite as prepared as been in the past. and certainly even the fact that there's a very short timeline for electoral body to get done just the referendum, but also the parliamentary lectures that people have called also for
6:35 pm
a postponement, at least at the elections. so they'll be time to really have a debate on the issues and to have a better registration. are you an expert on human rights and sudan has condemned the countries continued crack done on pro democracy, protested a dumber dang is roughly up. his 2nd visit to the country is called for the release of those detained under a recent state of emergency and an end to the use of excessive force against demonstrators that had been near daily rally is against military since it sees power. last october, a london is preparing for what's been dubbed the platinum party at the palace later on saturday. it's going to be a live concert and it's the latest in a series of events mocking queen elizabeth 70 year reign as britons monarch. the concerts are set to feature celebrity guests and performers which include dyna ross in the bands, duran, duran, and queen full brennan. as more on the celebrations from london. after the 1st 2 days, all the queens, platinum jubilee celebrations,
6:36 pm
which were more formal occasions, the troop in the color, military processions on thursday and the saint. paul's cathedral service of thanksgiving on friday. now we're into the we can saturday, sunday, the kind of that the celebrations turns are more informal leisure, lee kind of party type of atmosphere. we're going to have firm st. parties on sunday. and the main focus of today's celebrations and uncombed amaray sions i'm thanksgiving is, is a party here in central london on the mouth just outside booking, and pass where a galaxy all talk pop and rock stars are going to be performing in honor of her majesty and some of the names include queen the band at now fronted by the singer adam lambert. we're also going to have alicia keys. the proceedings are going to be brought to a close by ad sharon, singing the song perfect. there will also be spoken interludes. i understand from the famous naturalist, as is to david acton bra and the football a former for paula david beckham. 2. and what's interesting though, is that the queen herself won't be in attendance. so she is going to be at windsor
6:37 pm
castle. she has been feeling quite frail after the exertions of thursdays, events, and so she will won't actually be here, but that doesn't take away from the sense here in central london of glorious sunshine feeding into a sense of well being and a sense of thanksgiving for the work on the sacrifice on the ship. it just just her giving that the, that her majesty put in over the 70 years that she's been on the throne. emergency workers say the death toll and fridays train crush in southern germany has risen to 5. local police say several people are still missing, and at least 44 people were hurt in the accident. some of them sustained serious injuries. officials are still investigating the cause of the derailment. non con through sagas. we can say that of the 4 earlier confirmed fatalities full of female . as for the 5th, i can't make any statement at the moment. among the injured probably also young

victims, because the train was on its way home after school after school from home depot, the u. s is set to host the summit of the americas in los angeles on monday, where leaders will discuss regional problems. but while the white house is hoping to bolster engagement with latin america, the event has been clouded by threats of a boycott. as after washington decided to exclude cuba, venezuela and nicaragua, or latin america editor, lucy, a newman. as this once every 3 years, leaders from all over the americas meet at the only gathering where all $36.00 countries sit at the same table. the summit of the americas, but less than a week before president joe biden is supposed to host his regional peers in los angeles. it's still unclear who'll turn up neither mexico try to leave. i threatened to boycott the summit. he after biden decided to exclude cuba, nicaragua and venezuela are doing. they don't meet the required democratic credentials yet. no, he didn't. in literature,
6:39 pm
no one has the right to exclude anyone. how can you call it a summit of the americas? where are the excluded countries from another continent and other galaxy, another planet? what a mala, honduras, and the caribbean countries as a block are also threatening not to attend wild. many of those who will plan to protest the reasons very mexico's president novice or would have on for example, says that this is a matter of respect to a national sovereignty. while here in chile resident gabrielle bodied says that ice and nation and thank since don't work and instead calls for dialogue and engagement with the leaders who are accused of human rights violations. saying that they must be brought to the table and brought the task face to face. for this year's agenda focuses on reaching a region wide agreement on migration, but with mid term elections around the corner. biden doesn't want to antagonize conservatives by inviting leaders from countries that are viewed as authoritarian.
6:40 pm
