5:15 am
emetic humanitarian and human rights consequences, and the impact is being felt far beyond the ukraine. previous votes of the general assembly have demonstrated that any sort of more coercive language against russia will have difficulty getting even half of you. and general assembly delegates votes and the russian ambassador did scoff, what equal the hollowed out resolution? as always, we'll be looking at what china and non align countries like brazil have to say these countries have expressed that concern of a flouting of the un charter. but of also pointed to the selective application of the un charter, the selective outrage from western nations when the un charter isn't abided by. so we'll be looking at how weber's on thursday. seattle is become the 1st to see in the us to buy discrimination based on cost those from the city, south asian communities who back the low. so people facing cars,

5:18 am
for city globally to win this kind of ban on cost is commission outside of south asia. so this is genuinely historic and you cannot possibly overstate the significance of it. and i know that working people in other cities absolutely want to win something like this. i would just warn them that it's not going to be automatic. if you can go to the democratic party council members and say, please do this in our city. we will need to build a kind of fighting movement that be built here in other cities as well to win this slats. on the al jazeera new day to show that a woman dies every 2 minutes to you to pregnancy, your child best and pack this shocking statistics with a regional director from the red and an astronomical discovery sciences. get a glimpse of huge galaxy state back to the coast spin. ah,
