8:23 pm
we had improved somewhat under president micro. he said he done more than his predecessors to address frances colonial paul, setting up things like a truth and reconciliation committee in the past. but he had angered algiers recently with certain comments, including accusing the government of trying to form an anti french fence. and now he retracted those comments, algeria and paris, very much looking to move forward. there was any other major deals or announcements during this visit, though not a 30 non on energy that might have been expected. because algeria is one of the use main gas exporters, conflict and drought has less than 5000000 people in chad desperately short of food . the government declared a food emergency in the hope of receiving international help, but it's been slow to arrive to 0. have a morgan reports not for blake chad, north of the capital. often when i mean how many gave birth to her daughter 2 years

8:25 pm
but has dried up to about a 10th of its size in the past. 50 years and the presence of the militant grew book on her arm has cause of many from their likelihood. hundreds of thousands have been displaced because of the violence around the lake. fatima ibrahim and her family fled to this side of the lake for safety. but she said 8 has dwindled to nothing in the 8 years they've been here. can you come a montana in a day if we're lucky we get meals, but our lives are hard. if we have breakfast, we don't have lunch. if we get dinner, then there is no breakfast the next morning. it is extremely hard and there are no jobs for us for you to come. earlier this year, chad government declared a food emergency and urged national and international organizations to assist those in need. that in an, in a mere millsman, we need about 100000 metric tons. and the government has secured 6000 tons and distributed it to the markets with people to be able to get it in some countries

8:27 pm
helpless that so many years have passed and had given us very little information. and that little information there was, were lies for processes named 20 new cardinals. the appointments include bull candidates from africa and asia. it's seen as a sign of where the roman catholic church is heading out to zeros. adarine reports now from the vatican in a consistory is a normal part of his duties. it's one of the most political events any year. it seems more so this year for many reasons. first off, it was called in august not hasn't happened in more than 200 years. that got all that a can watchers spreading rumors perhaps that francis might step down. he's been in poor health. he has a lot of pain in fabica and he has even said he may step down at his help ever forces him to do so. but soon after these rumor spread, the 1st thing you had to do in the lead up to this conference with faith, i'm not stepping down, which he wasn't. and the 2nd thing was people start to look closer the list of 20 names of people. he was creating a cardinal, and it showed
8:28 pm
a changing church hierarchy, more cardinal from the global south countries that have never been represented before. an italian cardinal, but serving in mongolia that countries never been represented by cardinal. we have a progressive new cardinal from san diego to clear challenge to some of the more conservative clergy there who say that certain politicians who us should receive communion because they support a portion. right. you also have a new cardinal from pa, to glide. a country never represent here. so we see francis trying to push his his advisors the cardinals to this more inclusive style of leading the church. and also from the periphery, not from these urban centers, the political center is like italy that still has more cardinals than any other country. a model from the u. k. is made history by competing in a beauty pageant without makeup, clear, haunting reports. i mean, yeah,
8:29 pm
it's an industry known for glib, glamour, and lot of make up our many thousands of women compete in beauty pageants every year. but for the 1st time in nearly a century of the mist england competition, one woman took to the cat walk with nothing on her face yet. there was some, no, once you're in at once i did, i just spoke so easily. my skin, i fled as how young women and just women in general should feel its speeds when i'm so crowd i came into such a crazy day. 20 year old melissa ralph is from south london and chose to compete with a bare face. no make up. no frills the pageant introduced and no makeup round in 20 . 19. after receiving highly edited photos of contestants, they said they wanted to see what the women really looked like. but ralph has taken that to the next level nowadays. so many girls feel like they have swimming comes in to feel and look beautiful. mind is like cheap,
