12:33 am
a 10 year old girl in the us state of ohio. the case sparked outrage after the girl had to travel across state lines to get an abortion 27 year old gosh on pointers admitted to rape in the girl at least twice. a higher laws don't include exemptions for abortions. in the case of rape or incest, the victim hasn't been named was forced to travel to indiana for the procedure. last week, president joe biden had this to say about the case 10 years old. and she was forced to have to travel out of the state to indian to seek to terminate the pregnancy and maybe save her life. that's the last part is my judge. 10 years old, 10 years old rape 6 weeks pregnant, already traumatized, forced to travel to another's faith, imagined being a little girl. rosalind golden is in washington, dc. it ros this case, it also made its way to congress today. what happened?
12:34 am
well, the democratically controlled congress has been holding a number of hearings this week to talk about what can be done to try to give women in the united states, the right to have an abortion, whatever the circumstances. during one of those hearings before a house of representatives committee, there was this exchange between a california congressman eric small well, and a woman who is the leader of l. a major anti abortion rights organization. this is the exchange and it runs a bit long, but it's worth listening in its entirety. you miss foster, you think a 10 year old would choose to carry i and they a 10 year old case. first of all, the ohio my, my question is what a 10 year old choose to carry a baby in the ohio case, the most highly, unfortunately, justified to some question, please. what a 10 year old choose to carry
12:35 am
a baby. i cannot do you think a 10 year old to choose to carry a baby? i believe it would probably impact her, her life. and so therefore, it would fall under any exception and would not be in abortion weight. it would not be an abortion. if a 10 year old with her parents made the decision not to have a baby that was the result of the rape. if a 10 year old became pregnant as a result of rape and it was a threatening her life than that's not an abortion. so it would not fall under any abortion restriction in our nation miss warbler. i'm familiar with this information . yes, i am. did you just hear some dis information? i guess i heard some very significant disinformation. why don't you tell me that? yes, an an abortion as a procedure. it's a medical procedure that individuals undergo for a wide range of stark stances, including because they have been sexually assaulted, raped in the case of the 10 year old. it doesn't matter whether or not there is a statutory exemption. it is still
12:36 am
a medical procedure that is understood to be an abortion. beyond that, i think it's also important to note that there is no exception for the life or the health of the mother in the ohio law. that's why that 10 year old had to cross state lines in order to receive an abortion. now here's why this exchange is important. democrats have been accused of not vigorously pushing back against a conservative language about abortion, essentially, allowing those who are opposed to the procedure to basically shape the debate and thus shape why. what the u. s. public thinks about abortion. in this instance, what you saw was a member of the democratic majority for strongly pushing back and making the point for anyone who was watching that hearing that what was being described is not anything except an abortion. in this case, it's also worth pointing out that on thursday,
12:37 am
the us vice president comalla harris traveled to florida. one of the questions that came up as she was getting ready to start her day of appearances, including with the group of people interested in restoring women's right to abortion, was why are you going? why are you bothering to do this in florida, which is a conservative state, and the vice president essentially made the argument that it's not enough to talk about abortion rights in states where the process is still legal. that it needs to be discussed in all 50 states. perhaps this is a sign of the bind administration's efforts to be more vigorous in trying to protect people's right to abortion. but certainly it was noteworthy that she didn't shrink when she was asked the question. and jordan, thank you very much, need the country's most at risk from climate change asking the world's largest polluters for help leaders of pacific island nations medical on the final day of the annual summit in fiji capital. and the timing could work in their favor. 2 of

a feeling the consequences and what more international assistance. china is the world's largest emitter, while the largest member of the forum, australia is one of the biggest exporters of fossil fuels. the latest fine suggests that we need to see a global cut in emissions by at least 50 percent this decade. so pacific garlan countries are calling on all major emitters are to be doing their share to make sure that old pacific island countries survive. now these nations are in a position where they can use renewed interest in their strategic value as leverage to get what they want. while there are concerns among pacific island countries about the geopolitical tension, thou happy, the issues that are facing are receiving the attention they deserve. as a result, what they don't want is to be pushed into a position where they have to choose sides. thou welcoming the economic insecurity sweeteners coming their way. but they know that often those things don't come for free. most of these old friendships remain strong,
12:40 am

12:57 am
americans can do to help griner. i think the us government has done what it can. i know there's some criticism that they haven't facilitated conversations between greiner and her wife, but i know that the government, the us government is very limited. and what i can do, a grinder is part, is detained in russia. the government u. s. government doesn't have a capacity to do much more than offer support that support could end up being important. should grinder eventually be exchanged for another prisoner. but i think the reality is that it's hard for the us government to do much in this particular situation. a, she would have broken the law, but maybe not in such a way that she would deserve to spend and potentially a decade behind bars. so there is a political element, of course, as a political and because it involves the u. s. russia, a given the strain relations between those countries not only involving the ukraine, but other topics. so there's definitely a political element to it though in a more narrow light. if she broke the law,
12:58 am
she did break the law. i think ultimately she'll return home as part of a prisoner exchange. it sounds like the u. s. government interested in doing that. it sounds like the russian government is interested in that sort of transaction. so most likely she will return home. but i think the key question is, how long will she be behind bars? is this a matter of weeks, months, years? obviously, we all hope is the matter of days or weeks. but it does take a while. it see eames for these exchanges to take place and that is your fault for now. it is back to lauren and london. thanks very much indeed. and the quick one you can always catch up with the sport and of course, or news on our website address that is algebra dot com. that's it for miller taylor for this news. i'll be back in just a couple of minutes with more. today's news like sorting
