5:02 pm
or thousands of people are ready against the shooting of 3 people at a kurdish cultural center in paris on friday. they want authorities to declare the shooting a terror attack and not a racially motivated incident thing. kurds were targeted. will police have arrest a 69 year old $900.00? she it is a political analyst and columnists for online newspaper l post. he joins us from paris. what do you make of the violence? we witness today one on the supplies for these violence. i think the most say the political mark them in during the election with the manuel macro on the far right has been clear for the french people. we've seen that way to see how they can such place in france. a racism has been normalized and bundle lies in the french psyche . so today is the kurdish community that has been targeted by one supremacist white,
5:03 pm
which is racist. but bye, believe that another day it will be others community. the all minority in france are suffering with racism. with racism, sorry, in discrimination. i believe that the french president, a vice financially how to take a new city in order to fight discrimination in france. i believe that for example, he can nominate a new minister in france that can fight to racism and discrimination any slumber phobia and anti semitism in france. i believe that it would be very important to put on the table this problem making in france rates. you didn't, has a huge roots in the french society, not today, but remember in 2020 to 2022. when a ben, the, the a former a membership leadership of the us, you're not the father of mine. then where in the 2nd round, again,
5:04 pm
just jog there was a huge protest against racism in france. so there we need really to do to fight this region and to act and to take some initiative in order to fight this way . the government might say that they wanted more to be done to protect the community. and that seems like these are unacceptable no matter what, how to respond to that? well, i believe that the government did the opposite to remember the law of the securities which are getting people and minority to their minority that does not have any place. watch how many a minister from the minority has been nominated by different presidents. there was no one look at, for example, in the british government. we've got a study gotten which is the mayor of london, which is a rich and muslim look a russia senior snap, which is as well for minority his today of premier minister in the k. and this can
5:05 pm
never happen in france. so i believe today is a time to give more opportunity to the minority and to find discrimination in or aspect in front in the society. as i mentioned previously, the could you come in, it just means i get it not for the 1st time, but it can be and others are meeting. and i'm very afraid that someone, a white premisses can goes to a mosque and kill it happen in the news, the land, remember that. so that's why i said, and i believe that today it's a time to fight discrimination. and to take some initiative for the, the french society, we more peace in our society and we, we more dialogue with others community in order to implement and to interact between us. how significant do you think it was that the shooting incident? you mentioned there was not regarded or announced as a, as a terrorist event. well,
5:06 pm
the 1st of all, these are so media that to the will not see a fight. i don't know what these when, when it comes to both far, right. a some major. they don't use a, you know, a terrorist attack, they said that it's a crazy one. it doesn't have any brain, etc. but this is, it's very important that we need to clarify the term, the terminology against the sister is attack and we need to be very clear that it's a terrorist attack and he's not a crazy, a guy. and the 2nd things that is, i believe that today france is becoming more, i mean, dangerous for the stability of the society. as i said, rated, didn't hospitalized in the french society and the, or political members, how the huge responsibility. remember that the, during the campaign, the french election presidential election that racism a place we exam will exam will. he's one of the candy. that does say that he said
5:07 pm
that the immigration, we don't need immigration in front me grants are not welcoming in france and mcclin's violence of the school to can not to be integrated in front of these. all kind of rhetoric increase rate is in, in france and discrimination. and these leaders are very reaches of which you responsibility in front. that's why our media, we need to fight and denounce these atrocities. and these are barbaric river, weak against me grants. ok, how much free at her, thanks for joining us here on al jazeera, we're going to stay with isn't cross to a some of inch of it in paris. some of the anger really has been continuing, still hasn't of sooty. and you've been seeing those dramatic pictures coming from this avenue where behind us is that the public square
5:08 pm
where protest as i've been trying to come to words and i can show you. on the other side, there is a police presence which has been able to push them back to words republic stretch from bastille square. and they're telling the protesters to stay on that and. and as you can see on the straw, there is just plenty of debris burnt. the car is trash cans. people have been coming in expressing their anger, and they've been frustrated to see how they have been responded to by the police as well. they say that has heavy handedness that has been used by the police and they've been asking, where was the police run? the attack actually happened when it took place? where were they, why did they come so late to respond to their calls? and then when they began to protest, even last night, the police came out to numbers. they threw tear gas at them and tried to disperse them. c that is something that we've been seeing as sort of a game of chicken that had been played by the a between the protesters and the police. they did try and come to words best the
5:09 pm
and the big push back to words there to public square. and this is where the police is going to try and contain them, so they do not carry a come forward and destruct any of the traffic here in paris. because as you've been witnessing for the last few hours, the streets have been battled rounds between protesters and police. and now they seem to have fallen back to words that are public square. but again, as you mentioned, anger is high. frustration is high because they do not believe the police is doing justice by not declaring the incident which happened, killing 3 to kurdish refugees as a terrorist incident, and they do not want to be it to be treated as a, an incident that was a driven by ration and racial motors while talking about that's that incident and the catalyst for this sounds it. well, what more do we know about the suspect in that shooting
5:10 pm
the 69 year old suspect had a long history of for racist violence. 6 years ago, he threw rich and abuse at the migrants there last year. he carried out an attack with swords injuring at 3 to needs by grants, and he was jailed for a year and a and a week after he came out he was able to get a gun, get dozens of rounds of ammunition even event. the police were captured at him, actually was the protestant, who eventually got him to do sir, is to come to the pressure that they got it were able to put on the attacker. and then the police came in. he still had dozens of rounds left in his chamber and in spirit magazines. so this is an incident where people have been trying to ask, why was this person able to go out in the streets of paris? it was somebody who was known by the police. this was a cultural center which the police had been identified as a sensitive location. and that's why this kurdish community here in paris is very
5:11 pm
angry. they do not believe that this was a non wolf than they are. certainly, as you can see on the streets, not satisfied with the answers that the government has given them with that fluid situation in paris for now, some have been target. thank you. at least 8 people have been killed in a rush and strike in southern ukraine. 58 others were injured in the attack and his son as his he was retaken by ukrainian troops last month in what was a major setback for moscow's war on ukraine. cha, stratford has the latest from keith. what we're being told is that this attack happened around about 11 am local time this morning, hitting a central area of the city, a shopping and residential area, the local authorities. they're telling us that is around about $70000.00 people in
5:12 pm
the city. as we speak, many people had returned to the city many more people to return to the city. in the immediate few days all was liberated around november, the 10th, the 11th. but then when shelling started, they moved out again. the civil administration also telling us that some of the worst hit areas in these daily shelling daily attacks in a neighborhood on the, immediately on the northern banks of the denise river population in those neighbors, around 8000 people, the authorities. they're saying that there are constant sniper and shilling attacks in there, but the kind of severity of this attack in the central area of the city is very worrying date. of course, like the russians and the ukrainians always deny that they are targeting civilian infrastructure. civilian areas, we do know though that both sides use occasionally
5:13 pm
a band in civilian buildings to, to base troops from. so this is obviously as you can imagine, a worrying development, a terrifying, terrifying experience for, for the thousands of people inside care of sun. now an arctic blast is affecting millions of people in north america. winter storm elliot is enveloping up much of the us and canada. meteorologists are calling it a once in a generation event where it stretches from the east to the west coast and north to south covering more than 3000 kilometers from the us. mexico board up to quebec or than 200000000 americans are under severe weather advisories. while at least one warning has been issued in every canadian province antenna tree. more than 8000 flights have been cancelled due to strong winds and heavy snow disrupting holiday travel plans, or the cold snap is even affecting southern states, such as texas, where sub 0 temperatures are rare. for the north it's expected to drop below minus

5:24 pm
now lies with smaller regional parties. as 2022 comes to an end, lebanon is without an executive authority state. institutions are collapsing and politicians have failed to mitigate the impact of an economy in free fall. so anyhow, that takes look back at the past 12 months. on the surface, business appears to be booming, but this is only part of lebanon's reality. income inequality is not new in a country where the richest 10 percent of the population owns almost 70 percent of the total wealth. but now the economy has collapsed, making the poor even more vulnerable. it's being blamed on a system put in place by the political and business elite who are refusing reforms to fight corruption. the state is nearly bankrupt. the public sector right now, it has no revenue. and you know, you need to pay saturdays to public employees for them to go to work. we are
5:25 pm
witnessing increasingly closing down off public institutions. professors at 11 is universities are no longer going to work. people are desperate. some have stormed bank at times, armed, demanding their own money. their savings have been trapped by in formal capital controls. since the onset of the economic crisis, 11 or financial crisis entered is 4th year with losses amounting to more than $70000000000.00. the world bank says the countries current and future states on the assets public real estate potential, but i'm sorry, an oil and gas revenues combined are worth only a fraction of that. the political paralysis hasn't helped a fragmented parliament, hasn't been able to elect the president since november. and without the head of
5:26 pm
state a government can be formed. it's an unprecedented vacuum that delays efforts to revive the economy. at the shop, there are people who are sleeping without dinner. they don't have money to buy food . there are no jobs graduates or trying to find a way out of the country. there's little to show for the billions of dollars spent over the decades. that's, apart from the chronic mismanagement. remember that nothing will change, even if the elective president, because the same politicians responsible for running the economy into the ground are still in power. there's been no accountability for a crisis that's destroyed the lives of so many. instead, lebanon has become a failed state senator there. osha zita, beirut, 50 veney. ram booker has been confirmed as fiji is new prime minister, ending days of political deadlock parliament nowadays voted in favor of the former crew leader after an inconclusive election earlier this month. and who has served
5:27 pm
this prime minister twice. his last government was toppled by outgoing the the frank miranda, who had been in power for 16 years. and lucas now heads a 3 party coalition. well, they say move, know is the fiji correspondent for a b c. news, australia, she explains what people's expectations are from the new government. the hope now. so most people is that this will be a stable government given that the last 2 years has been one of the one that most people here in fiji. see, as having been, dictate your, with human rights records that were not exactly admirable and with a history of not really comes out to the public or the other side of parliament. so there is a lot of hope amongst the genes here in the country as well. as outside that this will be a government of national unity, one that has more than one party, which already makes it very different from the really the 1st party that had the g
5:28 pm
. i'm under it some for 16 years. he has said to australia and media as well in international and you deal in media that he is likely to go with its traditional partner with b, just traditional partners are across the street. and then by extension of the united kingdom and united states of america, he did, however, say at the end of a very long explanation as to his foreign policy, that he is likely to hold on to our sovereign power. which should be a little bit disconcerting for those watching the geopolitical development here in the pacific. i jerry has one of the world's largest film industries. productions have steadily grow and scale since it started at $960.00 s. well now it produces thousands of features every year, but it's one that young filmmaker told al jazeera, it's more about quality and quantity. i am towing again. you 31 years old and i
5:29 pm
am a filmmaker in lagos, nigeria. i think that some right from when i was very young, i've always liked the media. my father was a journalist, so i mean a print journalist, but then i you, i would watch the tv and, you know, tell myself i wouldn't be on tv like this person. none of us, i should go for few making. then it's about story tennis. i always get inspiration to tell stories and they come to mean different formats. so, you know, there's some stories they'll come to you and you know that this can work for radio, for example. he has to be on t v, or he has to be a documentary that some stories they'll come to you and then, i mean, it will just be a feel. so it was, that was how it started. the europe as i one of like the like to stick holders under major and film industry. so i think that the europe as ah, it's, it's a cultural thing. we have this very beautiful culture. we have dads, we have drama,
5:30 pm
we have. so it is natural that's, you know, would want to do films. if you look at how the current industry developed, it was just about volume people just kept creatine, and creeds, and people, loft, entertainment. people wanted to watch it. you have a lot of filmmakers as well now, who want it to be standard, like we want it to go places we want it to have, you know, to, to have the proper structure. but then we also have few makers who think that or who want our fields to cross, you know, to the tilt. so the global or north and you know, for the war to see because we now need the, the exposure. we need the film industry to be developed to that will have, you know, people can actually get paid and be able to leave off their earning, asked creators, for me or my hopes and dreams for my career in the industry would be that festival . to tell stories that very, you know, genuine to me it's very important for me to tell stories. i feel it to be seen by the world.
