4:01 pm
hello there, i'm this darcy, hey, and this is the news our live from our headquarters here in doha coming up in the next 60 minutes. joe biden makes an unannounced visit to give his past trip to ukraine since the russian invasion. i'm adrian finnegan, in cave, where much of the central city stood still for bivens visit air, raid sirens, blad, well as the war and ukraine is, it's one year mark, you foreign minister gather in brussels to discuss peace and security. and i'm sammy's, aidan live, will know the key, the at the center of the 1st of quite where 2 weeks on the focus is shifting to resettlement and aid. i'm devin, ashwin sports as barcelona restore. the 8 point lead in the spanish league from 11 dusky house bossa beach. how do you do at a value? right? please? second leg against manchester united and later this week
4:02 pm
cave stands ukraine, styles and democracy stands. that was the message from you as president joe biden. as he made an unannounced trip to the ukrainian capital just days out from the 1st anniversary of the conflict, the u. s. is providing ukraine with a new military aid package worth some $500000000.00. ukraine's president of a lot of his zalinski says that russia has no chance of winning. okay, he's go how many kinds to hidden awesome osama safely this is really the most important visit in the whole history of the ukraine u. s. relationship. this is a visit in this most difficult period for ukraine when ukraine is fighting for our own liberty as for the liberties of the world. and this underlines the results that we have already achieved, lee and the historic achievements we might gain altogether with the whole world in the united states with europe, spokesman was one year later, key stands and ukraine stands. democracy stands,
4:03 pm
the american stand with you and the world stands with you. key has captured a part of my heart. i must say let's go live now too hot a abdel how made? who's at the opposite end of that on square here in the capital huddle. this visit is exactly what the ukranian leadership would have wanted to be saying right now, isn't it? it is indeed, especially the timing of this visit is quite important and, and then you know the message coming out of it also being a very important for president zalinski at this juncture. this is not the 1st question leader to visit a keep since the war started. so it was long in the coming from
4:04 pm
a ukrainian point of view. now having joe biden standing in, keep talking from the center of keep walking around and keep because they, the 2 men went to were seen in front of the saint. michael's cathedral, not very far from here, is certainly could be seen as a show of solidarity. but also a show of defiance. and then the pledge is made by joe biden, $500000000.00 in additional additional defense aid. you talked about a long range missiles being provided that will be provided even more. he talked about ammunition. he talk about beefing up the air defense system, which is extremely important to secure ukrainian cities because when it comes to air to the air, really the russians have the superiority there. he talked about also increasing that capability of air surveillances. so all things that would be more than welcome
4:05 pm
by presidents landscape, but also i think by ukrainians is a lot of anxiety in the air. at the moment. the one year anniversary is approaching only 4 days away. people are hearing about, you know, more or less the same scenario. they heard this time last year, which is military build up on the other side of the borders in bella, rues and in russia. and this certainly increases anxiety among ukrainians, thinking that they could be a new stage and a war, new shift and rushes, a military strategy at the moment, most of the fighting is happening in the east of the country, but people would tell you that they still don't feel safe here in chemo in other cities. why hodder is the timing of this visit so significant i think it's
4:06 pm
significant on many levels. it comes to dave, for example, here in ukraine that today they're celebrating deaf, heavenly $100.00. this is a day where you celebrate befallen and actually just shortly before we saw the convoy of joe biden, come through this road here. well, just up a few 100 meters away from where i'm standing. there was a common ration ongoing for the fall and the fallen who, who lost their lives here and made ban square at the time when the protest then led to the ousting of victoria new coverage to then president of ukraine. the fallen after that in the fighting in the don't back back in 2014 and 15 and the new fallen since the russian invasion last year. so. so that was happening. and shortly as it wrapped up, we so that conway, very important day for the ukrainians on the 11th. very, also important day, as i said earlier, because we're reaching the one year anniversary of the russian invasion. and
4:07 pm
because of this, all anxiety in the air, and i think also quite important because a president vladimir putin has announced always has been announced that he will give a speech tomorrow of from moscow. so to have the american president here at this time, games kind of a message also to do russia that when it comes to ukraine, it is now firmly on the west in the western side, with this western pac allies, probably something that really, president putin wouldn't like to see but this very important message is coming out and certainly the timing is loaded with symbolism. out is there is other abdul hamid reporting live here from here in the central cave . let's turn out to warsaw. alan fisher is standing by for us. this island an unannounced visit, we knew about it only an hour or 2 before it happened,
4:08 pm
where the streets went quiet here, road blocks were put into place. when was all of this set into motion swell? live in planning it for months and we got that information just in the last 20 minutes or so from jake sullivan, who's the national security council adviser to president biden. but the final decision whether or not to go was actually made on friday night. joe biden was out in a restaurant in washington on saturday. he went to church as he normally does. the white house on sunday put out his schedule and which suggested that he was going to receive his daily briefing in the morning. and then on monday evening, he would fly to moscow, but when that was published, he was already on his way. here he boarded a flight at andrews, the joint base andrews at 415 on sunday morning. he arrived at close to the polish porter. the decision was then taken to get him on a train. now there is a very small footprint. we've all seen the convoy that travels with the president
4:09 pm
of the united states. they decided to keep the put footprint, very small. he travelled by train into keep itself following the same pattern as antony blank in the secretary of state and also lloyd austin, the defense secretary, when they visited keith last year. it was on a train. the windows were blacked out. the carriage was just for the president and his team, and then he arrived and keith, it's something that he's wanted to do. he knew that his 2 senior cabinet members had been there, joe biden was there as well. and me last year, when biden was here, almost a year ago, he was very keen to go to ukraine at that point. but there was the secret service that said that that was not a good idea. and we always knew that joe biden was going to make some sort of announcement of an additional aid for keith. we had that in the last couple of hours with an extra half a $1000000000.00 to be spent on a munitions and artillery, but also providing how it serves and javelins which approved so successful. and he said there will be no new weapons for ukraine. that's important as well,
4:10 pm
because you'll remember when president zalinski at was in washington dc in december and just again in the last couple of months, he's been asking here support from the americans and from others. the americans have invented a lot to do that. so by seeing that there will be no new weaponry provided. that's essentially joe biden. at this point, seeing no more that we know that joe biden is going to make a significant speech here in warsaw on tuesday. and he will also meet the members of nato as eastern flank the 9 countries that are closest to the russian border here in warsaw on wednesday. but again, it's joe biden, seeing that the united states is very much it ready to support ukraine. he's going to announce new sanctions on russia later this week. and all this, despite a growing concern among some republican members of congress, just a few. not a majority by any means, but you have the likes of marjorie taylor green, seeing that she wants to impeach joe biden,
4:11 pm
for the support that he has given to ukraine. well, joe biden has actually gone to ukraine to say that not only is he going to continue to support ukraine, that support is not going to disappear from the united states any time soon. i'll be there. as alan fischer reporting their lives from warsaw, let's get more analysis now of president biden's visit to cave from australia and santa changing. well, you've had all the lasers from key of that's now get the view from moscow as on an engine and trans us from the russian capital. as on the biden's visit really comes around a sensitive time for the content. it absolutely does. this is a time there. the company is getting ready for the address from the commander in chief present, flood to me. fortune is about to address the state of the union tell his comrades his countrymen about what has happened in the year since the last time he spoke to them in the state of the union, where
4:12 pm
a russian tanks rolled into ukraine. a short operation as lasted for over a year. so this visit is going to probably both still what the, what the russians have been seeing all along that they are not just fighting ukraine. they're not just fighting what they call nazis, but they're fighting a ramstein. the lions of all sorts, which includes all the capitals in the west from washington to brussels. and this is something that we expect that the foreign ministry, as well as the russian president, will tell his people that this is something that was inevitable. this was important that they have insisted that they had to secure their borders from the threats that was being imposed on them from best and countries. so, so far, no official reaction, but we can all guess what the reaction from the russian capital is going to be. and in the last few minutes, it is interesting that we've also heard from the associated press saying that there was some sort of communication between the americans and the russians to avoid what
4:13 pm
they called quote miscalculations. oh, very interesting. well, you talk about this western alliance, as i say, moscow itself is hosting a rather important guest of its own. the chinese state counselor, one ye, he says, the chinese have a piece plan of thought to present it is quite interesting, isn't it? that these lines are becoming more clear as we inch closer to this one, the mark, where you see the president of the united states in keith and china's top diplomat . in moscow, we've heard in the last 48 hours in brussels, where the united states has been accusing china of bolstering moscow and warning it against providing weapons where the chinese have retorted back. seeing that the only country were just supplying weapons to the water, rena, are the americans. so it is interesting to see that when you hear the top chinese diplomat, china, which has been stating the position that at once, and to hostility that on both sides to come to
4:14 pm
a negotiating table and the so called peace plan, which we haven't seen so far is going to be discussed with the officials here in moscow. so very important, not just from beijing's perspective, but also from moscow's perspective, as well as the world has been listening to various leaders from the rest of the thing that russia stands alone. russia was not able to achieve its objective. russia wants to the world to see that it does not stand alone in the last few days, we will so seen the bell russian president arrived in moscow. and now this was it from china just to day ahead of the russian president's address. and just a couple of days before we reached that one year mark. very interesting indeed are some of innervated there for us in moscow. thank you so much for sama. well speaking of alliances, e foreign ministers have been missing in brussels to discuss the war in ukraine. let's speak truck there for magic at james bass. now he's out that meeting for james as we've been saying, show of solidarity that on so many different from yeah, absolutely. i mean, obviously the trip by president,
4:15 pm
by nova there been lots of rumors that he might be going to ukraine. the details were very tightly held. so it came as a surprise to the you for a ministers when they sat down for that meeting. the news that he actually was on the ground and even on the ground with president landscape, had some reaction since we had a short time ago from the dutch foreign minister, who said this said the sense of very powerful message to president putin earlier on . i also spoke to the deputy prime minister of foreign minister moldova, that that's not a new country, but as a country that says russia is after it. next, it says that it is under a hybrid war ready? russia trying to destabilize it. and he told me that he believes that this sort of visit, again shows president putin, the unity of the western allies. and he felt it was, it was supportive, not just of ukraine, but also of moldova. clearly the ministers here are discussing where they are now
4:16 pm
one year into this war. certainly they have provided a fair bit of support to ukraine, but ukraine once more, they're also concerned about where russia is going to get support from going forward. clearly, iran has been helping it militarily, but no other countries. and there is this suggestion that came out in recent hours from the u. s. secret state antony blinking, that china might start giving weapons to russia. certainly a number of foreign ministers i spoke here were very concerned about that. on the e, you hi, representative for foreign affairs, joseph burrell. he told me it was a red line if that was going to happen, but he said he'd had a private insurance in munich in the last couple of days from his chinese counterpart, wind e. who of course is now in moscow that this wouldn't happen, that china wouldn't supply russia with weapons, but it's something they're watching closely here. also, the other thing that some are mentioned that chinese piece plan supposedly might come out on the anniversary or before the anniversary in the coming days. that's
4:17 pm
being watch very closely. here are all the developments we watched by these a you for a minute. ministers who still are trying to send, i think, a message of support and unity to ukraine, and another meeting involving the you and nato, and the training for minister in the next 24 hours. and that'll be specifically on the issue of ammunition and keeping the ammunition supplies flowing to ukraine because that scenario, or a real concern right now. the fact that perhaps there is not particularly in terms of artillery shells, enough for ukraine to keep up. it's kind of mental, the battlefield came out of america with all the latest from brussel. thank you, james. well, so again, markov is a former spokesman for a russian president vladimir persian. he is now the director of the institute of political studies. he says biden's visit won't change anything, job. why don't come to keep on. there was some guarantee or security for all of
4:18 pm
like a metaphor that it will be no rock at. and i've tried doing zap visits all but it doesn't go by them. it's exactly what's happening caused it in ski, switch on our show, wait information, what possible say, but everybody was here, owns a tv that, that it's all the people who got that round. but as it and by the observation about tenure sounds, because they sure if like you can say something, it's a 100 to true and russian. i'm going to put them all on the promise, the rest of that extra what i just kept going to change. you go policy or you bring in the government and the american government. i where i must,
4:19 pm
didn't expect change. united states will continue with more fast. you're going and the government will continue to be pop it and proxy army or the united states of america and terror. give russia and people in your game will continue by keep it is in the, in the now been 2 weeks and 2 powerful earthquakes. hit southern to kia and northern syria devastation. both countries hold and 46000 people have been confirmed dead and tens of thousands of buildings have been flattened. rescue efforts have now been cooled off and all of the effective tax provinces, except the 2 hardest hit that's carmen. rush and hot die. and a convoy from doctors without borders has entered northwestern syria where millions have been left homeless. the u. n. has been criticized for slow response and delivering aid to series most effective areas. meanwhile,
4:20 pm
wild health organization says 26000000 people in both countries desperately need help. while sammy is, i don isn't no doubt have for us that's not far from the syrian border. semi you say the focus there is now shifting that's right. indeed. we can break it down into clean up, contain the cities and care. that's where the focus is now, because in the last 24 hours that hasn't been that no one has been rescued from the rubble alive. so the rescue, the search and rescue missions of pretty much ended now with the exception of 2 areas where they're still going on. and that focus now is on what the help to give to people. of course that has been started in the very early hours of this earthquake, but there's more of a shift now in terms of reassessment and putting people into you know, better places to live to. they can resume some kind of normal life on that point. i'm going to loss control operator here. now, to get the drove off in the end,
4:21 pm
we can start explaining to visually what's going on during bush liability. ok, i think we're on the drone now. so as you can see around be here the plenty of destruction in this area. and because of that there's plenty of tents. this is the center of the 1st earthquake that struck. they put up 4 and a half 1010 container cities in places like no dar and his last year they want to get that number up to a 100000 in the earthquake zone within the next 2 months. why? because this far too many people out in the tense, it's cold at night. it's not the ideal location for people to spend extended periods. so a lot of people come out intensely, they want to get in some more sort of stable living situation. there's a lot of focus on aid. we saw doctors here delivering a short while ago. interestingly, one of those tense,
4:22 pm
an interesting thing that caught our attention is for psychological counseling as well. these people don't forget, have suffered. they've lived through an earthquake. they've seen or heard the buildings collapsed. some of them were in them at the time when the buildings collapsed with damage. so there's a lot of psychological needs that need tending to as well. and there's a big focus on clean up. there is a loss of rubble which you might be able to see on the drone right now. that is going to take a huge effort to clean up a lot of work to be done and clean up a lot of work to be done in getting people back to something approaching normal or talking about helping people last week. i accompanied one of the 1st turkish military aid mission to a remote village up in the mountains very difficult to access by road and impossible to access by road. if you want to get a very quickly over lieu, we went down
4:23 pm
a military helicopter. we witnessed the aid authoration live on al jazeera. we brought you live coverage on that, but we will heartbroken because there wasn't time for us to get out of the helicopter and speak to people and find out what they've experienced to find out what their needs off the helicopter had to move on very quickly. well that prompted us just a few days ago to get back into the car and make the very long and difficult journey to reach those people and find out the story. mountains, snow, and freezing wind. the road towed so has little comfort to offer. it's long winding and climbed tiring lea, i'm not sure to row to total devastation should look like. but the scenes along the way give plenty of ideas for villages nestled on a mountain peak and south east into a kia it's a hard place to reach by road. a few days ago, we briefly visited the village on board, the military helicopter,
4:24 pm
sent to deliver aid. the military, i'm taking the hall will be where people soon appeared, but we were asked to stay on the helicopter and not delay the mission. we left with many unanswered questions, really an emotionally ha moment because i want to get out to vote. so we've now come back to the village by road to find those answers. as soon as we arrive, we find out lu in morning. as if are going out is receiving condolences after losing her daughter and 3 grandchildren earlier stick and we were terrified. we couldn't escape. i fell down the stairs, it was shaking so badly. wherever you look, the earthquake has left its mark on the landscape on houses. and of course on people's minds. authority say they're going to start reconstruction efforts in a matter of weeks. or clearly, it's going to be a long process. i assume same for elephant baton. cache time is in short supply. we
4:25 pm
caught a glimpse of baton the day we flew in on a helicopter. we tracked him down to hear his story. m o h dash it. what do i do? where shall i go? ha, early as my blood pressure is rising. i am ill. a liana boy, distractor was my right hand. it's gone her li, i build this house. i invested in this house. it's all gone. i'm 8 years old. senior barbara dora, just her. the elderly couple live alone in a tent supplied by the authorities for her home and her sense of security lie crushed outside. it's difficult to imagine the terror people felt as their homes came crashing down. unless you mohammed shaheen, the 16 year old miraculously survived not only the earthquake, but 2 days trapped in the rubble of his own home. if papa monsieur, i heard
4:26 pm
a terrible sounds like an explosion yet i fell off my beds and it went dark nightstand. there was a lot of dust in there was a concrete block on me as i could not feel my feet from the cold. and i thought i was going to die. memories like that a hard to a raise from your mind. this is a teenager who dreams of a little piece of mind and a little more food in his tent. it just savages. we just need a little more grains and water and give it sheila lesson for forty's or delivering food tense and on this day. firewood to a moment of relief for fun, for the kids much harder to deliver on the back of a truck though. the blades of our helicopter did the trick a few days earlier. it's heartbreaking to look down on these kids. why aren't waving out on that day. we couldn't do more than exchange away from the window amara was, but to day we exchange hugs on the same spot. a smile, a laugh,
4:27 pm
and a little light brightens up the horizon. a lot of stories, he knows so, but a lot of stories in each of those tense behind me of people who suffered loss to well, we've got joining us here. now, 2 people with from 2 very different worlds who suffered losses because of that. quite one of them is a turkish gentleman here with me right now. lots if chitter, the other person is a theory and who is living here in turkey. he was displaced, of course, by the fighting in this country and then by the earthquake, mister hammered, as i am going to stop. first of all, with mister la teeth, bay offending also send us info to susan. it's you know, going to ask him, 1st of all, why, what happened to him that brought into this tent now the boy i killed in his, i'll be dep, terminate any and get dick there, let him go. don't you dare let him is that he catch him? is a cautionary?
4:28 pm
can you manage for each be joke. ok. so he said that when the earthquake happened, the house was damaged and they had to come and live in a tent. the government has given them a lot of supply, so they taken care of. let's hear the story of a syrian refugee displaced twice, but living in the same area. next to mr. le, please. i know a southern baker. ok only to be there. and i said, look, i'm going to ask him, 1st of all, his story about why his head the matter into a, than it's been very me, i live in that or done, but i know, you know, and one of my, any lazy mckenna can eliminate the root job is to get the a couple that it will help to sort of like sort of manage it, but again, we have not. ok. so he said he was 1st displaced from his homeland in holland because of the war they came here. they settled here,
4:29 pm
but then the earthquake has destroyed the home and they had to come and live in these tent. so kind of a story of p all being united in grief. let's ask them now what their situation is. what kind of condition are they living in? abi looks and i'm going to ask 1st of all, latino here. a child that ne, the arch in his lodge, him the shoe and h. b, a casual, graphic, lavario mcclurg, of artwork, j. u. man, mr. devlin, from his chad there. but danielle alchemist, but their name is evelyn yardley made you to under viagra, missouri. ah, there he jen nozzle, you wish he jen, he jen time is leak. not so appeal. ok, so he said now, well taken care of. we've been given food, we've been given blankets. the place is often about hygiene about cleaning. he said, everything is in is in order. he's happy. i'm

4:31 pm
come to term with the new reality that they're going to have to put up with for a while is going to take a while to fix, all of this coming to terms with loss is something that bernard smith has been looking at in talking to there's no expectation now that this kid is rescue team will find anyone alive under the rubble of these apartment. and on top of that, trying to do is at least give relatives a body to bury men at glen. last 5, members of his family. it has been 14 days. i'm waiting for my dead or alive. what matters? we get it from here so we can bury her and give her a place on the soil. moment. moments aren't is classified as missing amidst the constantly updating statistics on the 10s of thousands of dead or injured or homeless. there's one number, the turkish government can't provide. it doesn't know how many people are still
4:32 pm
missing. the scale of the disaster and expectations of the survivors takes its toll on the more than 35000 turkish and foreign rescue was working here. what part of july, we have psychologists in our same offering support to help us get over stress and depression. i've never seen in a quite like this in my whole life and you have to shut down your emotions when you do the job. it on takia, survivors have access to food medicines and 10. but the government wants me somehow to start rebuilding as soon as possible. at least 345000 department buildings have been destroyed according to the turkish government. of course, every one of them. somebody's home, and now the search and rescue operation has effectively ended. the task of demolishing and rebuilding the beginning. it may prove impossible to calculate exactly how many people are missing or dead. following the earthquakes here. but in some places they know. every balloon here represents the life of
4:33 pm
a child that lived in this apartment. building bernice smith al jazeera. i'm touchy . well, obviously the situation receiving a lot of international attention from a lot of agencies and from a lot of officials among them. antony blinking view a secretary of state who met with these turkish counterpart mucho shallow and very promising to increase the aid from view as to turkey over this earthquake united states is here to support you in your time of need and we will be by your side for as long as it takes to recover and to rebuild yesterday, as my 1st stop on this trip, i visited angelica air base, which, as you know, as the hub of the united states efforts to support the disaster response with the foreign minister with my food, i had the opportunity to fly over hot, i had province to look at some of the devastation firsthand. and as i said
4:34 pm
yesterday it's, it's hard to put into words. all right, so obviously there's a lot of focus on the human suffering. the human lawson the needs to get aid to help those people. but in addition to that, there's also the question of the heritage which has been lost in this earthquake natasha. when i am takes a look at that in this package. it's the 2nd sunday since the earthquake. the antonia protestant church is resuming services. but the pastor now balances the top. what used to be the wrought iron gate about with bible in hand? well, you know. busy we walk 5 minutes along deserted street to find the greek orthodox church. we stop rare pass her by to ask where it's gone. and the happy b l new jar mosque believe to be built in the 7th century was one of the oldest in
4:35 pm
the country. now in ruins on talk, yet known as antioch in ancient times was one of the biggest jewels of the roman empire in modern turkey. a, it's a city, celebrated for its diversity, were the because of this, there is brotherhood here, not discrimination. we all live together. here are churches here. a mosque is here and they're all next to each other. we are one nation, one fist. it's not just religious history that's been lost at eyes house of parliament built before the area became part of turkey. is now tilting, precariously booklet i was. i be shaken. it's impossible to describe scenes such a beautiful city like this in ruins. i hope will return to our good old days. this is a beautiful city and i love it so much, and i'm not going to leave rachel, the minister of culture and tourism says on takia and had tie province or a mosaic,
4:36 pm
a place where historically and until to day adherence of the 3 monotheistic religions found a home to worship the government is promising to rebuild damaged heritage. sites like this one within a year introduce regulations for reconstruction and provide financial assistance to private building owners. you not the case? get on. thank you. i will return to its diverse community until in days we will return and continue to preserve the cultural fun, takyo discussion. one of them people here are put to mention that an takia has been decimated by multiple earthquake since the 2nd century. each time it was rebuilt, they say history will repeat itself. natasha name l. jazeera and tuck ya takia. while history repeating itself must be a sentence that is too familiar,
4:37 pm
sadly, too familiar for many syrians, of course, living from tragedy to tragedy. we saw the aid operation get off to what was described as a slow too slow. a start for many syrians and a this now trickling through. we can get an update from the source of the he joins us from a border crossing russell. what is the situation with the flow there in the body or covering it and talk here? while the international aid here is still pass in it into syria, however, it is very much insufficient. so we have a coming from saudi arabia, turkey, and also the international organizations such as united nations and the world health organization. and this how is passing through june that gives a border crossing here. however, as of now, it is quite inadequate yet i just recently have been inside your area and i went to
4:38 pm

4:44 pm
a piece of legislation. it's not just or for me to complete judicial. busy overall, to dramatically weaken the court system is wrong, whose role is to be a check and balance on the government. and this will completely put out a portion of the different powers of the different arms of government and reduce the judicial power so that the government will have an absolute power. and there will be nothing to stop to any kind of a legislation that they want to put forward to more. i want to ask you about one piece of legislation. what new calling the override clause. i believe it sounds like it means politics will always then take precedence over the court. does that right? yeah, it is, but the overall quote override clause, even though it's had a lot of media attention, it's one of the series of pieces of legislation. so actually the rating today is 2 pieces of legislation that we've, right, but all of them are at the same to the same objective which is to,
4:45 pm
we can call it. and so as you say that the government will be able to pass whatever they will have absolute power. while i believe that netanyahu himself isn't involved in this initiative because he's facing criminal corruption charges himself . now, if this is all version 3 and what impact might this legislation have on his own personal case? well, i mean when you say he's not involved in it, he's not the minister of justice. he's not at the head of the committee that discusses the law, but he is the prime minister and he is the head of the party where the justice minister comes from. what impact doesn't have was he said, the government pos, any laws. so for example, they the law say, the prime minister or any other member there can't be charged with the prime. they say the court has no authority to, to, to hear his case or anything of the sort really, that would just make a fade away tomorrow. we've obviously seen these huge, huge protests. we've had
