hello, this is the news our on al jazeera, fully by t ball live in doha, coming up in the next 60 minutes. but you ends top. ryan came female official tells al jazeera, the women and girls of afghanistan can not be abandoned. after holding talks with the taliban, the women are getting trodden on or they need to breathe. they need to come back. they need to have their rights and protected. and given back to them where they are being taken away. also this our, the us designate savannah group as an international criminal organization for supplying mercenaries to russia will have reaction from muslim ah, dozens of people injured in peru as police confront protesters demanding the resignation of the president. and how a growing number of hold it cranes are being encouraged to spend the winter in south korea. i'm devin ashwin sport. it's currently goal us between liverpool and

chelsea and the premier league with half an hour gone in that one and at no joke which comes through his 3rd round match out the australian open despite struggling with a hamstring injury. ah, thank you very much for joining. as the united nations deputy secretary general has told al jazeera, the women and girls of afghanistan cannot be abandoned. i mean, a muhammad has just returned from high level meetings with the taliban in cobble. she says her delegation made some progress on women's rights, but much remains to be done. or early i spoke to the deputy secretary general here in doha, and she shared how it felt as a woman leading this delegation and the dynamics she witnessed within the taliban administration. when you meet the taliban, there's a lot of hospitality. everyone is welcoming you at the same time. if you push

enough buttons, you begin to see the ideology come through. what we did see was an understanding of all of them how important it was for girls rights and women's rights and education . they all didn't have a, they didn't push back on. that's what they said. was that ok, this is work in progress and they're going to come back to us. so the new framing around which they would protect women, that would be accessing education and also the workplace. so i think that they understand i was surprised that we saw from them a need and a wants to be recognized. right. and that the humanitarian services were important . so i think you've got fractions. i think you've got the ones that afford leanings and they've got the ones that are holding onto the 13th century ideology. yeah, and i will ask you a bit more about this needs to be recognised that they have formulated. i wanted to to, to find out more about your meetings with them as a woman, a muslim woman. you were meeting with taliban along with the head of un women. see

my boy holes. did you find that that made a difference? having women in there to, to have that perhaps uncomfortable conversation for them about women's rights finishes. it was always very clear to me. i'm going in there as an opportunity to add the voices of women of afghanistan. we heard this some young women who said to us, we don't need your voice senior just to amplify ours. when you get, in essence, we don't have that opportunity for going in the house. very focused on getting those messages across, getting into the room. it is always intimidating when you're facing people who do such things in this world is we don't accept. but i think, you know, focus on the issue and push it and we did and they didn't, in some cases, didn't accept it. and try to put you in your place, but i think we were strong enough to push back. the reason i ask is, because very often there's been criticism that all too often foreign delegation send men only teams with reinforce kylie bands. conservative views of the world was

the decision to send you a muslim woman to lead this delegation on the basis of representation or likelihood of progress. no, i think you find yourself a muslim woman at the helm of affairs in the united nations. and it so happens that there's a delegation of work that you do in that. and the top diplomat goes out there being, unless the woman i think was a plus for the international community. because i know that my religion doesn't teach or preach, that we don't have a right to cation on a product so that you can on the deputy secretary general, the united nation. so that in itself, i think was important, was never guaranteed. we were going to get these meetings, some of them, and in one instance, you know, they reminded me that you know, it's hard for me to be sitting in the room with them when i push too hard. that's me with progress. because her i'm or not, i was sitting there and i was delivering messages right now the taliban leaders is as you've alluded to, have said that conditions compliant with their interpretation of islamic sharia law

. and i've got to stand conservative traditions must 1st be in place before they consider reversing some of these rules. and some of these bands. what is your thanks after meeting been of why they're banning women from attending school or working? is it all about religion or is it perhaps also about using women and girls as a bargaining chip with the international community? not either all, it's both. i mean, they've realized that this is the level that they have with the international community. it matters to us and at the same time, there isn't ideology that it is a conservative society beyond the taliban and the taliban use that. and i think that when we sat there to discuss the tenants of this, i'm not in any great depth, but just, you know, it for the 1st one on we're talking about knowledge speaking light. they will tell you, i will tell them that i'm also sydney, they may be one of the i'm really key, but i don't see anywhere that says, you know,

we don't have the right to education. so i think that, you know, the conversations were helpful in that we were trying to hold the ground that it was not acceptable. i had a number of consultations going in. right. and the, and there is a consensus in the muslim world, of course, in the international community that women's rights and goals, rights and the rights to work the right to be part of the, an economy or not. so not for negotiation. in the case of some edicts, i'll give you credit, you've brought back some edicts for women, but then you're giving with one rights and you're taking away with the other. that's not acceptable. we want all of them because they're just fundamental. so i think engagement is important. we have to push and pull on this until we do point the west because of what's happening to these women and girls and i've gone is found today that the international community should perhaps reconsider. it stands on, on recognition, and even the united nations would the un recognize the time eventually, i hope there is a day that we do recognize this government,

provided it is based on the principles that they need to understand they have to uphold as part of the international family, but i do fear that what we are doing is having women and girls caught in the crossfire and it's really important we don't do that. we heard the stories of many african women who because of this, i'm not able to see their children. this is this painful stories of women don't know where the next meal is coming from. there's a level of depression. i think no one has ever imagined in afghanistan. what is, what is horace to us, if slum is suicide, and yet we're hearing the rise of that amongst women. i just, you know, we just know and i know that we can't abandon the women of afghanistan. we lost the parliamentary and was just recently. that's not acceptable, they may have this band that they say, there are no repre recreation responses to,

you know, killing so or revenge. but you know, there are disappearances. there are women, you know, who are in living in fear every day. a deputy secretary general of the united nation say now abdul ca ha bulky is the spokesman for the taliban ministry of foreign affairs. he claims they have not impulse blanket bands on restrictions, and organizations that align with the nation values have been allowed to operate. it is important to realize that some of these restrictions placed on foreign angels a part of this decision making was to curb the activities of some and jose that were trying to social engineer change in atlanta thought. and as the cardinal principal of andrea work is impartiality and neutrality to that, and those in jose who were really involved in humanitarian work. and we're

committed to this principle and not interfering in the local customs and norms. they were given exemptions in some areas including health. they have resumed their work and we welcome that. as for those who are unable or unwilling to stick to this principle, they have only shown that perhaps this decision was the best interest of a son and india. and we will continue to prioritize the stability and security off of amazon. i mean, this idea that there is a ban on education is absolutely incorrect as part of a particular narrative and agenda that has been driven by some actors who again have taken hostage to you and in sense of helping the people of science

instead of working on areas and in a way that empowers the government to take the needed actions to help and provide the basic needs of atlanta, son when it comes to again, these restrictions. this is a suspension. i mean, we are working on finding a solution to this. this is not something that is a blanket. ben, it had never has been, there was schools open, there was universities open up. there have been again a suspended and we are working on finding a permanent solutions to reopening this. but again, other institutes are open, educational, instrument dressers, online learning, homeschooling, i mean these are open, this is not a ban, or a war against education for girls and women. one less, sir, now speak to michael simple, who was deputy to the e. special representative for afghanistan from 2004 until 2008 and is currently

a visiting research professor at cleans university belfast. thank you very much, michael. for being with us. we're gonna try and put all of this together and try to get a clear vision of an understanding of what's happening in afghanistan. but i wanted to ask you thought, 1st about the un sending this high level delegation led by a woman. i mean, i'm mohammad to try and convince the taliban to reverse the span on women working. and for angels i for air and women attending secondary school. do you think it helps? this certainly was a very significant mission. the are highest ranking diplomat available to the your end. so it's very important that she went there. the brutal reality is that the taliban showed no interest whatsoever. and compromise, they didn't budge. and in fact, the, the key decision makers are explicitly refused to meet to the,

the mission. the mission wasn't able to meet either the supreme leader or even a governor while fi b and the governor of kandahar is also close to the supreme leader. and i'm sure that no deputy secretary general anna will take back to new york, a very clear message, probably tougher when she talks to colleagues than am she put out publicly that the taliban are not turning on that these bonds and the other revolutionary decrees which the taliban have imposed in recent months and that they are very much still in play. but as you heard, the spokesman for the a foreign ministry say there, he said that there wasn't a blanket ban. i'm trying to understand here what is going within the taliban movement? are they all united or over these restrictions that they've at that they've put in place? why they perhaps the sanctions and divisions within the movement about the way forward and how to address this issue? well 1st of all, as, as for of the car, the spokesman,

i think he's very good at his job. he communicates very clearly. it's what an english we call a spin doctor. it's his job to come up with some justification for any policy and place. however, ridiculous or harmful that policy might be in terms of the issue of whether there are as splits and divisions inside the the taliban movement. we also heard deputy sector general. i referred to this idea that you know, perhaps only a few people actually support these bonds. and there are factions inside the taliban movement. the political reality is that the taliban have imposed what they call and islamic emerett. the underlying foundational principle of that islamic emerett is that the mere shay hyper, tula has unchallenged authority to pass any decree which he likes. and every one is obliged to implement those decrees whether they agree with them or not. potentially, at the pain of death. i have absolutely no doubt that there are many men inside the

taliban movement who deeply regret the decrees around education who deeply regret many the other things that the taliban are doing. they are powerless to do anything about it because they basically have been told if you want to stay alive, certainly if you want to stay a member of the movement, you must our abilities, decrease unquestioningly. why do you think michael? the taliban leadership has ab put in place these decrees and these bands. is it really about religion or is it perhaps a way to use women and girls and an issue that's very important to the national community as a bargaining chip demand negotiations? well, i think it's right that out the, the taliban leadership's vision of religion and their ideology that they do, of course enter into this out shanghai, but to law and the, the, the cluster of people around him out believe that it is their mission to impose

their vision of a muslim society on afghanistan, irrespective of the point that most afghan wisdoms disagree with this vision, they think they got it wrong. so i think he definitely, i'm sure hybrid toola is driven by an ideological and vision of transformation society. i'm not sure that they're really trying to use women as, as bargaining chips. i to thought that totem is probably the here and the words to, to use. i think that they, they like to use and their stance on women as being symbolic of a radical transformation that they're doing and they're quite prepared. they would be delight to frame these things in terms of us afghan muslims against the western world. and they like to ignore the point that most other african was limbs actually oppose what they're doing. so it's not just women that are using like this. for example, the last week or we saw the taliban carry out the, the 1st public amputation of the,

the limbs of alleged thieves. they were using the hands of those men that they were cutting off of totems as symbolize what they're doing, a radical transformation about understand, michael, what one of their arguments has been that the absence of international recognition of their all along with the sanctions is, is hindering their ability to govern afghanistan effectively. what do you think at this stage the international community should be during? should they perhaps meet them half way and ensure that the afghan population, the afghan women and girls are protected? should they be some form of recognition? when the united nations security council responded to the forceful takeover off on the stand by the the taliban in august of 2021, they focused on to 3 main areas. the i the idea that there should be a restoration of a broad base government that the, the rights of women should be respected and that there should be space for the,

or for the operation of a humanitarian actors. yes, women are being excluded on this right. that the taliban should be pressured on this, but the problem is much bigger than that. and i think the idea that somehow if the, if the taliban where to come up with some new education curriculum or some re, a rigid enforcement of segregation, which them allowed. allow them to expand out some access to education for women, that that would be a path to recognition, i think is absolutely wrong. i don't think it's going to happen. i don't think they don't think that the deputy secretary general would have given them that message. and they have fundamentally let down the afghan people on the promise which they made in cutter. that they would be part of a broad base administration and not enforced. the kind of power monopoly which they are currently asserting. michael, always good to get your thoughts and insight on this. michael simple joining us there from belfast. thank you very much for your time. thank you. sent in morehead

on this al jazeera news hour, including germany refuses to commit to sending tanks to ukraine, despite pressure from its nato allies. incredible pictures as one of skis, greatest attempts on one of the wealth of his courses in the dark that's coming up with the germans. ah, the u. s. is designating russia's wagner group as an international criminal organization that will allow it to impose wireless sanctions on the group. the white house is about 50000. wagner mercenaries are fighting in ukraine. my cana has more from washington, dc. i a 3rd force on the ukraine conflict. soldiers from russia's wagner group, essentially hired mercenaries, many of them hired from russian prisons. the group is controlled by you have guinea,

prego. sin, a close ally of vladimir putin. and this week featured in a video made by his own media service, visiting injured fighters in st. petersburg clinic. you must not pity a soldier a war. you must take care of him. therefore, each soldier should be unique. with more than 50000, deployed in ukraine, the wagner group has been on the us rate, offer a number of months. and now it's been declared a significant transnational criminal organisation in coordination with this designation. we will also impose additional sanctions next week against wagner and its support network across multiple continents. these actions recognize the trans continental threat that wagner poses including through its ongoing pattern of serious criminal activity. at the same time though, the u. s. maintains that a mounting rivalry between the bod group and the formal russian military could impact on russia performance and the ongoing war. we are seeing indications,

including an intelligence, the tensions between wagner and the russian ministry of defense are increasing. wagner is becoming a rival power centered to the russian military and other russian ministries, the russian army has a very little moral. so the only way to spike moral and to bring victory if to bring this people who get a lot of money will basically professional mercenaries and also professional criminals released from jail. that's what stalling actually did as well. the us has also accused north korea of arming the wagner group, displaying images of what it says are russian rail cars being loaded with north korean weapons systems. potentially putting the group in a position where it could change federal field dynamics and ukraine. something the u. s. clearly hopes it sanctions will help prevent mckenna, odyssey era,

washington and the al jazeera valley hush, him has a reaction from moscow. the ration of the wagner groups reaction from moscow. there is no official response or reaction to of this designation. however, the head of wagner group precaution boasted on his telegram channel. what to what, like action to this and saying that now we are colleagues with the us and we can come back to gather the what he described as transnational criminal clans. then he posted a letter that he directed or sent to the us national security council. addressing kirby and, and asking what did bmc wagner do so that its designated criminal group. so this is, this is the reaction from, from precaution himself. from the wagner group itself, you know, nothing that's had from the russian foreign ministry or from the criminal. and we

don't really expect to hear anything any soon. now, it seems that the wagner is taking more role and the water in ukraine, or the special operation at the school here and, and russia. and we'll see that in the coming weeks and days nato allies failed to get an agreement to send battle times ukraine. germany won't commit to handing overlap at 2 tanks to keep, nor will it give it permission for other countries to export them. defense ministers from more than 50 countries meant in germany on friday to discuss the next stage of military support for ukraine. fed lawson report from the ramstein at bass us defense secretary lloyd austin was hoping to deliver platter news to his ukrainian counterpart at the ramstein air base. but it was to be no commitment from germany that it would send its lap tanks to ukraine. we don't feel anything, we are just do a responsibility before our population in germany and in europe. and we have to balance all the pros and cons of the 40 reserves. decide things like that. just

like there is nothing else. and i'm very sure that there will be a decision in the short term, but i don't know why, and i don't know. wow, how the decision will look. this lack of a concrete timeline is despite germany's nato allies and ukraine itself, pressuring heart for the tanks to be sent. i encourage you to make such decisions that can deprive rational evil of, of any power. you can start this policy today. it is in your power to mega ramstein of tags not to bargain about different numbers of tags that to open at principal supply that will stop russian evil. some fear attending napa tank could mean an escalation of the war and rec nato, into a direct confrontation with russia. the tanks have been sold to dozens of countries around the world. those who want to export him to ukraine need permission from

germany 1st, after weeks of international pressure, germany has made it clear that it will take a decision on whether or not to send lap a thanks to you crane in its own time, president landscape, please that time is not a luxury his country has had little effect because germany says it's a decision that needs to be carefully wait. despite the sat back to happy promise, one of new military hartwell for ukraine. you as the plan secretary austin urgent countries not to waste too much time. this is a decisive decade for the world. this is a decisive moment for ukraine struggle to defend itself. so that contact group, walmart slowdown. we're gonna continue to dig deep from based upon the progress that we've made today. i'm confident, but ukraine's partners from around the globe are determined to meet this moment

against the us dollar, instead of implementing much needed reforms. the political elite is accused of creating a confusing exchange rate system that's hurting the people who rely on it the most . as in a hoarder has our report from balte goods, services, hospital fees, insurance, they're all priced in. foreign currency, lebanon's economy has become dollar rise because the local currency is nearly worthless. can she unassailable we buy everything in dollars? our goods, our rent, electricity? yes, we should price in the local currency, but it's not possible because it's value keeps fluctuating. trading is dominated by the black market exchange rate. it's hovering around $50000.00 lire to the dollar, causing even more economic difficulties for people already struggling to get by. but it's not the only rate. politicians and bankers are accused of creating

a multiple exchange rate system to cover up losses in the billions of dollars solvency problem. because their money public sector at the central bank government, the public, is unable to pay them back. they have this major gap and they are trying to shift it because it is through the haircut. and how do they do the have got through this multiple exchange rate system? it's known as the lawler, lebanese dollar, or bank rate, and it is used to withdraw trapped foreign currency deposits. and while the official rate has been pegged at $1500.00 leader to the dollar since 1997, the government says the fiscal situation means it has to collect taxes and fees at another rate. and then there is the site for 8. serrato is one of the policies introduced by the central bank to protect the div valuating lira. it involves pumping dollars into the market from its dwindling foreign currency reserves
