6:01 pm
ah hello, this is in use our own al jazeera. i'm fully bathsheba, live in doha, coming up in the next 60 minutes. the u. s. becomes the latest country to consider imposing restrictions on arrival from china. as concern grows over the size of the current of iris outbreak that russia intensifies, it's a tax on ukraine. a maternity ward is hits in the city of care. so on. also this our emotional re, unions in ethiopia as the national carrier resumes flights to the war torn region of tea cry. first a brutal winter storm and now floods more bad weather in the us this time on the west coast and in sort, elling, holland gets ready for his 1st from nearly game in more than 6 weeks for manchester night city. ah,
6:02 pm
ah. thank you for joining us. so we begin. this is our in china, where surgeon corona virus infections is wearing several countries. it thought there could be more than a 1000000 new cases daily. after b jing ease restrictions, the u. s. is considering imposing euros of passengers arriving from china. it says it's because of a lack of transparency about the size of the outbreak. anyone traveling, traveling from china to taiwan, japan and india already have to show a negative coverage test. but hong kong is moving the other way. it's canceling requirements for p. c. r tests for people arriving in their territory from thursday . quarantine for passengers testing positive will also be abandoned lloyd. they all more visitors coming from overseas. the mainland mccaul, anti one do not have to do mandatory p c r test when they arrive at hong kong. instead, rapid entered and test will be required all the way through the 1st day. or the,
6:03 pm
the jump in infections in china and the potential regional impacts have been keeping investors on edge florence lee has more in that from hong kong. if you look at the performance of the stock indices in hong kong, i think it mirrors how people feel about this decision. the hunting index rose, 1.6 percent. and i think that the business community is largely unhappy and also confident of hong kong ability to cope with rising coven cases. remember when hong kong had the very strict rules, it was seen as something that affected the cities reputation as an international financial center. now it's a rather different story in china. however, it's main induces the c as i 300 index, as well as the shanghai composite index, both recorded minor loss losses. and i think this overall reflects just how investors feel about china's ability to cope in the short to medium term with the explosion. in covey cases on the mainland,
6:04 pm
china's health facilities are under immense strain. it's hospitals, it's medical stuff ah overwhelmed, there's a shortage of medicines and some medicines in some places. funeral homes are full, the not accepting appointments until next year. so and the modeling that some health experts have have them have used, predicts that they could be $1.00 to $2000000.00 deaths in china the next year. and so i think what we're seeing in the stock market in hong kong and china really reflect how people feel about these 2 places. ability to cope with crone of iris in the coming months while signed is worldwide a monitoring crone of irish development in china. dr. patrick tongue is a division division chief of microbiology at cedar medicine hearing doha, he says, a new variant has not been discovered in china so far from what would be experiencing and the evidence that we have so far about how to handle the pandemic . it would be embed maybe q abrupt of
6:05 pm
a change from the 0 corporate policy here to allowing no, pretty much ramping spread the virus now in their country. so what we worry about is the right new, more, you know, a more transmissible barrier of 19 as well, and having very spread to other parts of the world. but the theme time there is a lot of the unity in the rest, the world, and especially immunity. for back the nation as well as community from infection. so it's really hard to say what the effect will be if you knew that when in the variance that arrived in china, would they have that much of their act on the rest of the world, which has gone through multiple ways of colgate, including the recent on the way, i think from the success the way the different oma cranberry, and we'd been around the world where we're getting close to the point where they're
6:06 pm
going to be equal librium, where we're going to reach some level of and de misty and not quite there yet. and especially for china, they're definitely not quite there yet. they're, they're going to be are in large, former conway, just like the rest of the world bid back in late december, early january of this year. and then the subsequent additional ways, the different on the bearing ah, the ukraine says russian forces are continuing their bombardment of the recently liberated city of care san he says, dozens of may files were launch in the past 24 hours, some hitting a hospital maternity ward official say staff were able to evacuate, and no one was hurt. ukraine's military has also resume, did counter offensive in the eastern region. hans, to launch cities, there are still under russian control. child threat for his falling developments

6:08 pm
approximately 70000 people are living in kennesaw and in some of the surrounding areas. many of them having returned since ukrainian forces took control again, and there are reports of many of those people now leaving in particular neighborhood called antonia, which is directly on the west bank of an old bank if you like, over the need for river that is come under heavy shelling sources, they're saying around $8000.00 people are living in that neighborhood. and they say the neighborhood is very susceptible to snipe of russian force. he's only around 700 meters across the river on the opposite bank. yeah. russia has dismissed the ukrainian president. 10 point piece plan for me is lens case proposal includes the withdrawal of russian troops and the restoration of ukraine's borders. and the criminal says keith has to back down on legions that russia has antics before talks
6:09 pm
. can take place, run a treaty has more from moscow. vanessa to luciana the russian situation has never changed. this situation was clear since the start of the military operation, the kremlin, deny to day any plans for peace in ukraine, and such plans will never be on the table if they don't put into consideration. the developments on the ground developments on the ground means rushes annexation of the 4 ukrainian regions, namely low hands, the nets, separate sheer and co phone. i'd like to mention here that the russian foreign minister, sir gay lover of has said that if he crane had agreed last march during talks in istanbul that talks now would have only been a battle. handsome demette scroggins. and now we would never talk about the other 2 regions. moscow has always been the u. s. for influence in camps decision and says because of ukraine's refusal, russia in the future will proceed depending on the military developments on the
6:10 pm
ground. therefore, from russia's perspective, the more ukraine refuses, the more loss, as it will incur. masika has warned ukraine and has confirmed that it will go one until it achieves this goals and objectives. any vera, some russian conditions mentioned by putin earlier in order to open doors for any future negotiations. like recognizing this for regions as russian lands. in addition to other matters, like stopping the supply of weapons to ukraine and paving the way for foreign messner is to go. the in moscow says, a sovereign of right to ban oil exports, the country's upset price caps on its energy price products at present proteins decree will come into effect in february and will last for at least 5 months. it's after the e u. australia and group of 7 agree to cap russian could at $60.00 a bow. earlier in december, the kremlin, called the meshes illegal aim is to restrict moscow's revenue while self supplying the global market. ali contact you is founder and ceo of rich management and
6:11 pm
investment advisory firm. he says, while russia and western nations are feeling the volatility of the oil market, other countries are reaping the benefits. i think the big macro a scenario that's unfolding is that emerging nations or getting discounted energy from russia, from the situation ukraine. and this is a significant tale when for the economy, they're able to negotiate better prices with the russians. because the russians are trying to pivot away from the old longstanding markets and the china in particular and india are extracting significant discount from the situation of the countries are not benefited to the same degree but are, are benefiting china and india are the biggest beneficiaries of the situation because not only are they buying in cheaper oil and gas for their economies, they're also sending back a lot of oil and gas, turning it around and making
6:12 pm
a profit, sending it back to those economies. which of put in the price gap. so it's a double wind for these guys. and for the west, the problem is really that it's becoming very expensive. you know, you hear the german politicians say with 85 percent fall, we got good storage. but what is the price they've paid for that oil and gas, it's been egregious to the upside is put significant pressure on the industries on the european industrial base. b s s s is moving its biggest facility from journey to china, and this could become quite a deluge because you can legislate on this price. but unfortunately you have to replace the oil and gas. and currently we're paying a very high price for that. and the worst in other world news authorities in kosovo have released a former police officer who was arrest earlier this month. height intentions between the government in pristina and the ethnic said minority. protestors have
6:13 pm
been rocking rhodes in the north, demanding his release is now under house arrest. officials hope his release will ease tensions. nato's mission in kosovo said a supported dialogue between the 2 highs. elaina glue shadow has more from the border village of year in year than pottage. either our former police officer from castillo or he left his job in november when all the serbs are withdrawal from coastal institutions. and he was arrested here in yachting across singleness everett. then and he was accused on terrorism as since then, he's somewhere here in the police camp in yard, in yet summer, near this crossing. and he's there a lawyer confronted others era that he has been released under her house arrest her . but now i had, there is a logistical problem for gustavo police, how to transfer a band teacher to his house because of the barricades. and i remind you that
6:14 pm
a vantage arrest was the main reason for the very good. so now we're waiting to see if the barricade or some of them will go remote santi, morehead, on this news, our including, we look back on a year of escalating conflict in democratic republic of congo, and the prospects for peace and in support. we'll show you a record breaking performance in the n b a that's coming up later with joe ah, israel small amounts, vanessa has passed a law named after a far right politician, known for his anti arab and racist remarks. it grand st. coming security minister, e to mar been giver. unprecedented power over the police, has been appointed as prime minister designate benjamin. it's now prepares to form a coalition. government is regarded as one of the most right wing administrations in decades. so high right has more from west to slim that's never really happened
6:15 pm
before where the police come underneath the government. now this is a new government that has already been causing a loss of control to see it. so most orthodox a right wing government and israel has ever seen in its history, and these decisions are being made fast and furious. they made decisions a couple of rules put together yesterday, new knows made this area and want to know where is giving full my party members and party members in the coalition or politicians. an opportunity to have jobs for example, lunch was given a role within the ministry of defense. and that means that it's giving these, this coalition party, more authorities sweeping powers across the military, across the, across the police. and it remains to be seen what's going to be happening next. this was all part of the coalition feel if you like with her. so i know he's going
6:16 pm
to be returning as prime minister again, and he has been in a position where he's needed this coalition to be able to advance forward and creates a new parliament. now, the ultra orthodox right wing coalition has made a stipulation that for them to join and partner with needs and guidelines and agreements, cemented ahead of being sworn. and they want to guarantee that moving forward. they can go ahead with base decisions that they had clearly been in the works for. 1 while now the coalition has been until now, so to see like on the fringe, but now they're on the main st. and they want to ensure that they could pass in this. and y'all who put, sees stipulations ahead of anything else. easy up in airlines has resumed flights between addis ababa and our northern te grey for the 1st time. in 18 months. the airline suspended the road during the conflict between government
6:17 pm
forces and rebels. they signed a ceasefire in november. if you've been airline says a technical team was sent to the regional capital of to grey mckelly to ensure the airport was ready to receive flights. and he was on the list. this is a joyful moment because me are going to meet our relatives after a long time. i am very excited. i pray to god that the remaining things will also be resolved soon. but of this, i came here to see my daughter who was giving birth at the time. my plan was to stay for 2 weeks, but everything was shut suddenly. it has been more than a year and health already, and i'm very happy the pieces returning and excited that i'm finally gone home. while a delegation from the ethiopian federal government visited rebel held areas on monday, it was a 1st high level trip to try since war broke out 2 years ago. they were there to work on implementing the african union, broken p, steel to end the conflict. fighting began after the federal government accused c. t gray people's liberation front of attacking an army base outside mckelly forces
6:18 pm
from am hara and neighboring eritrea, supportive ethiopian army. the 2 year conflict has killed thousands of people into space. millions, under the deal, the t peeler fighters must disarm and allow security forces to take control of mckelly. m hara and eritrea and forces will leave the region that now speak to her son. can n g about this, his director of the horn international institute for strategic studies, and he's joining us live from i will be in kenya. thank you so much. her son for speaking to him on al jazeera, so it would seem a step towards normalization in ethiopia. but do you think there is enough trust today between the 2 parties that would allow this b seal to be successfully implemented? one thing, but only especially up to the truck to complete this trust. what do they extend to the government? you know, saying the high level delegation that was one we received mckelly. i think it's significant impacts because i think it's based on other measures that are being
6:19 pm
taken by both to ensure the implementation of what do you see as the big sticking points of this agreement? critically you had to being restored, such as restoring mikaela the national grid, allowing you might have been a mentor and axes, but also critically both parties agreeing that you should have unlimited access to the mentation process. this is significant in parts because previously there was a lot of resistance when it came to transparency and accountability as well as open this of the process. do you think the p p allow for live up to its promise to, to disarm and allow the field, the national defense forces to be the sole army and you feel like you could have been concerned, especially because of the terms of that remain withdrawal or and that's why i left my bedroom buses on an incentive saying that being written them out in relation of
6:20 pm
course this hadn't been done yet, but that is being made now to the extent that is going to be done, i think it's been timing the extent to which the tv itself is going to be willing to talk a bit more about the rhetoric role here. eric n troops, of course, were fighting alongside ethiopian government forces. but we know that president, i say i stuff where key wasn't exactly excited about the speech deal between the t p l f and the federal government. do you think he will accept it eventually? or is he going to oppose it at some point and even undermine it? of course, and while i've been doing instrumental causing beast war and a bit tricky, and you know, there's been accused of causal human rights violations. and to the extent that i think the patches seem to be reaching some critical understanding and especially within the african facing of the entire community. i think ultimately as the model will help choice. but the,
6:21 pm
the draw outside that you'd like you to try to compare condemnation, not just african peers, but from the, from the entire community. of course. and i don't think that is something that he wants because he's already one of the most heavily sanctions country. the world half, and the thing this agreement is likely to bring an end, the political divisions that gave rise to this conflict in the 1st place. what else do you think needs to be done to address the divisions of root causes of a conflict? this agreement is going to contribute significantly to there is a leash, but he's not going to be and now the patient mental issues when it comes to the nature of this state of the need to be addressed. that contradictions within the main major, by that of call and also of the current conflict. and so the state has to be negotiated. and perhaps you can see on disposition going to be needed to be able to create the kind of society and the kind of nation that perhaps many bookings, uh,
6:22 pm
what about the other groups the higher for, for example, do you know, will they agree with some of the aspects of this deal rarely do you have a peace deal that was going to please everybody. but i think the mental to be going because the government said that to be the main players once they do that to me. but so be able to be brought to the table. i think other parties, sometimes it can be this role and that's where the, the allies can be contained in the sufficient way from the making practice, as well as the guarantee that the secret. thank you so much for talking to her. her son can n g director of the horn international institute for strategic studies in nairobi. we appreciate your time. thanks for having me. a conflict thin a democratic republic of congo is escalating. many african countries are deployed

6:24 pm
and perhaps even some states actors who need this to, to, to be going on so that they may got, you know, with their traffic 6 months ago, east african leaders agreed to send a regional stabilization force kenyon soldiers of the latest to arrive under that banner, uganda, perone, and south the dawn of said they'll also contribute troops. the risk is there that the different countries that are intervening will pursue their own narrow interests . and many of these countries have in the past, particularly the neighboring countries of burgundy. wonder uganda have supported proxy groups against each other, but also against the commonly state. more than 20 years after their mission began, the popularity of un peacekeepers is an all time low. many congolese blamed them for failing to protect civilians. demonstrators of burn, some un convoys encamped in recent months. many people say they tired of foreign
