9:01 pm
ah. you're watching the news, our life from headquarters, and del heim during obligate. coming up in the next 60 minutes, the warrens beller roots of more sanctions. if it goes ahead with plans to host russia, nuclear weapons with us, vice president carmella harris begins a tour of african countries in ghana as washington attempts to counter a china and russia as influence on the continent. cubans are picking a new national assembly in an election with no campaigning or opposition. this election is happening in the middle of an enormous economic hardship. wherever you go, people tell you about the difficulties they have to find. medicine and food. lebanon caught between 2 time zones. the government announces plans to delay daylight, saving time, creating an uproar or,
9:02 pm
and on p systemic with your sports news. and in more than just the game, a football england host. when you create a wimbley with both sides aiming to qualify for euro 2024. ah. so we begin this news our with a warning from the e. u to about the roofs, the blocks foreign policy chief just a barrel says men's faces further sanctions. if it hosts russia, nuclear weapons, or al war and the move would be an irresponsible escalation and a threat to european security. so the russian president vladimir putin announced the deal with bella ruth on saturday. ukraine has accused moscow of holding minsk as a nuclear hostage. and it's also calling for a un security council meeting. a said bush bra gleaton houston. alexander lucas shinkel is right. he said listen where your closest allies, why do the americans deployed nuclear weapons and their allies on their territory,
9:03 pm
train the crews, pilots? how to use this type of weapon if needed. we agreed that will do the same without violating our obligations either i emphasize without violating our international obligations on the non proliferation of nuclear weapons. and last week, who tend warren's russia would be forced to react if the u. k. supplies ukraine with armor piercing ammunition containing depleted uranium. meanwhile, ukraine's upper reach a nuclear plant remains at risk. it's come under repeated shelling. the un nuclear watchdog chief is expected to assess the damage later this week. susie snyder is the program coordinator at the international campaign to abolish nuclear weapons. she says the agreement between russia and bela roost could have catastrophic consequences. it increases the risk of the use of nuclear weapons by adding more actors who might potentially have the ability to drop nuclear bomb. it creates a potential for forecasts and miscommunication and that's
9:04 pm
a risky scenario at the best of times. and a time of conflict, i think is really stabilizing and very these weapons are, if used would be, would have results similar or greater than what we saw in russia and nagasaki in 1945 there. hugely, they can cause huge catastrophic harm. and there is no recovery from any health care system they could deal with that type of catastrophe. it doesn't matter. the size of the weapon, the long term consequences are also something that we just don't have the capacity to cope with. it's highly problematic. the nonproliferation treaty is not explicitly say you cannot store weapons in another country, but the pilots in those countries are trained to use those weapons and that would require a transfer of control. and that is prohibited under the nonproliferation treaty.

9:09 pm
biden administration to visit the region and recent months. she also traveled 2 times any we are looking forward to this chin. as for this statement of the long and enduring and very important relationship in friendship between that people of the united states and those who live on continent of africa . i'm very excited about the heating about i'm very excited about the impact of the future of africa on the rest of the world, including the united states of america. she returns he's joining us now from washington d. c. so as we're saying quite a few visits the african continent recently by u. s. administration officials, what's on harris's agenda and what's the motivation behind us?
9:10 pm
or the wider says this is to build on what they call the success of the us africa summit last december. and then the message was for too long, africa has been neglected by the u. s, but now the u. s. is back and we should be clear when we talk about neglect. we mean neglect as far as economic development is concerned. but clearly of last 15 years, the u. s. massively increased its military footprint through african, through africa and flood of the continent with, with weapons. but there is a recognition that when it comes to economic development, the u. s. has fallen way back behind china. now the u. s. wants to get involved that too. but what's also part of this messages. but when are asking you to choose between us and trying to no mother or the saber rattling that, we're hearing constantly from the white us against china, not in africa. we're asking you to choose, you can do both of us. but at the same time, the messages and we have this and john kirby national security council spokesperson this week. i'm trying resolve to be trusted when they partner with you and invest to new countries purely for selfish reasons. when we do it,
9:11 pm
it will be for mutual benefit. right? so what's been the reaction of african leaders to this power? struggle then, a survey of the summit in december, there was a great deal of skepticism given what comp harris, that was it was referencing the long history of the u. s. on the african con. and then the u. s. one says, save in countries where it invests, if has a long history of popping up dictators suppressed liberation movements from many of the many of the contemporary african leaders came from and trying to get as much accessory about the nationals as possible to take as many resources back as possible about too much trickle down to those skepticism about the us doesn't want african nations choose. also that recognition that the us is desperate for rarer minerals and the, and the, the, the elements that are powering the green revolution and where, where to wired about china is the recognition that the us is desperate for diplomatic credibility. for us as foreign policy goes, no to be ukraine,
9:12 pm
getting african support, which i haven't really got so far. for the u. s. position of no negotiations, no diplomacy. my china is saying that's negotiate. that's a popular a popular position because if africa and all the other nations in the global south who is suffering from european war with the lack of food, fertilize the fuel as a result of western sections. why do they have to suffer is what we often often hear, what we also have from what we heard from africa to certainly in december as we will choose where it will pick and choose us. what we think is the best interest. but it's a bit of skepticism about what is entails, who bring the us in when china, china says that we're not going to talk to your internal affairs. okay, thank you so much. she help return see reporting from washington d. c. we're going to bring you some breaking news now and we're hearing that the is really prime minister benjamin netanyahu have fired his defense minister. and this comes a day after you uh, guidelines called for the bill to be halted. but nathan,
9:13 pm
yeah. who's trying to push through saying the public unrest could threaten national security for a 12 weeks is really have been demonstrating against the government proposal to overhaul the judicial system. more on the breaking news story as when we get it. but back to campbell harris in africa and china has accelerated, the global push for influence on the african continent. so she was just saying, when it launched the belt and wrote initiative in 2013, it's focused on infrastructure development. moscow has increasingly looked at africa after being sanctioned by the west for its invasion of ukraine. the foreign ministers are good library, visited the content and twice in 6 months, most recently in january. he's also scheduled a russia africa summit in st. petersburg for july. then there's china's new foreign minister who went on a 5 country africa tour in january to start his term. the u. s. first lady joe biden visited namibia and kenya in february for visit was followed earlier this
9:14 pm
month by us secretary state anthony blinkin, who stopped in ethiopia and ms hare. let's take this issue a to show was ambien historian and senior lecture at the university of spell and boss in south africa. welcome to the als. is there a news our so fast forward to today? and we have the vice president common harris of visiting some countries on the african continent when you look at zambia in particular, which is going to be one of her, her stops. in fact, what does zombie i get out of this? well, i think potential benefits are you know, why need that or the hope that they need to get the support in terms of strengthening democratic institutions in terms of support production rate, phone. but also that, you know mens, i'm going to hope that they us look so open up new areas of support such as, you know, financing, you know,
9:15 pm
the chinese event using mark demarco debt title. countries including the u. s. support has lied to help get a very and i do not think that the menus ambient, if you ask an average example and your point us, i've done the country no struggle, but there was a very quickly when quickly point to infrastructure projects that the chinese have done this, i'll be in a trust the united states in this new strategy, whatever it is for the country, or do they view the us with skepticism? i think that they deal with it. they're not going to the friend marking the same way that they view the new example. you don't have to understand that the country is looking for development and they don't have the option or the choosing bush and bring that to or could be part of the country needed. so everyone can use
9:16 pm
us, china, russia, that you cannot our country. so none of these countries in new patient needs on their, on the, when the time to try to rush out to you. step one minute, i'm going to see that most not be our go by the why day to our police. believe me and just looking at the bigger picture here and tom la harris, this trip to the african continent following of course the secretary state following the 1st lady joe joe biden. i mean, what is all this really about? is it simply about countering chinese and russian influence in the region, or is there more to this? i think we have to, that's the main motivation. you know, the united states have never had an african policy work that had a national geo political interest example. you're responding to the patient,
9:17 pm
the product such as china and russia, i think what is the highest i did before. know what they one of the 5 i think what he's lacking is africa response. you know, africa actually. and finally started getting my view from managing relationships. with made up, i think, holding the night to states china and the union, and i would say yes, 3 main reasons for that. the 70 that the continent lacks a continental agency. you know how that's going to union, but i think that body, i think got continue to struggle. probably unified, a position on entity. even on this coming to example, if deleted the gotten out of town then, you know, done via should focus their counterpart in the region to have some kind of you for me to say what issues are key to, are really medically presented to these dignity that they did that so they to operate the individual countries and, and the mind party to,
9:18 pm
to have some kind of new j rotation. we do the 2nd reason i think that in the local and african leadership both b, 90 and competent. you have to remember the reading that is not the 1st time. you know, he's being positioned this way during the cold war, right? but example, we had the east which divides what you had that the time, which you don't have now. i'm african lead us leader. they won't be at a time the near who had africa policy in terms of their foreign policy, right. they also, i've been writing it as well. those things out there today. and finally, i think that the fact that we have to consider a mention in terms of why the content is really getting on do for either both the a, you and african countries as dependent on the income, the trade in terms of age and income to bring investment until they end up with begging bows. you cannot offset your policy if you ok. thank you so much. we
9:19 pm
appreciate your time. thanks for joining us from south africa. thank you so much. we're taking you back to our breaking news story that the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu has fired his defense minister. we have iran con, who's joining us on the phone for more from b. so iran just about 24 hours ago. the defense minister spoke out again, but i didn't have a question, but i can tell you on was really expecting this to happen. no room at scrolling around all afternoon, but it my m are on, are you still with us? 15 or 20 minutes? now? you're going to her has been a critic oldness and you know, who's pushing of the judicial over whole bill and we're on, are you still with us? alright, went to apologize. we apologize for that audio connection out of telling people try
9:20 pm
and get him run back a little later on the news. our just to remind you are breaking news story that the is really prime minister has fired the defense minister moving on to honduras and its formerly broken off decades long diplomatic relations with taiwan and switch to china. so this comes after the honduran, foreign minister to travel to beijing to discuss establishing ties. and this leaves taiwan with only 13 diplomatic allies. china consider itself rural taiwan as part of its territory to be retaken by force if necessary. has been how many reports old friends make way for new ones? that's the result of the latest round of diplomacy for under us. as the country establishes relations with china, the foreign ministers of both countries, putting on a display of solidarity shortly after signing a joint communicate for china,
9:21 pm
there is more to this than just to endure us to the republic on juris 7, the so called diplomatic relations with taiwan as of his day and undertakes not to have any further official relations or exchanges with taiwan. endures. foreign ministers confirmed a break in relations with a one saying the decisions based on the comic needs of the country. men and women defend, generally speaking, they are interested in how the countries moving forward and how to continue working together based on mutual interest, defense, and security, and the fight against organized crime. these are the themes that are normally on our agenda. say, once president, however, hinted china has been luring away its allies through financial diplomacy that they said the yacht and way here we will not compete with china in the meaningless checkbook diplomacy would. in the past years, china has been trying every need to suppress day,
9:22 pm
once international participation escalate the military threats to us and impacting regional peace. ah, they one is now left with only 13 countries officially recognizing the island as independent from mainland china. do united states being its main backer? even though washington hasn't establish official relations with the country gather at stake, is china's growing footprint in latin america, where it has so far poured more than a 130 $1000000000.00. as salvador nicaragua, panama, and the dominican republic, have already switch allegiances from the u. s. honduras. his announcement is also a blow to job biden's administration. assign washington could be gradually losing its gross and latin america. with that, that made of j 0 sodas in cuba are electing a new national assembly. there was no campaigning leading up to the election and no opposition challengers. voters ones that endorse nominated, candidates,
9:23 pm
countries facing rolling power blackouts. and the cost of living is a major concern for voters series above reports from the cuban capital. we're hearing a polling station in havana where people having companies whose very early in the morning to cast their valor that they're picking, the members of a nation assembly hall will eventually elect this country's next president among the candidates, i former president by we've got the, the current president, me in the mail and people we have to pick among the candidates in their district. you can see right here, some of them in this case is mighty like after she's the daughter of her will get them once they go inside this building, they'll have to select in a ballot like this one, whether they would vote for everyone, for some of them just for one and they can also cast a blank, a blank of rolled up, but candidates had chosen by a commission that loyal to that communist party. there's $470.00 candidates for $470.00 seats. and that's why critics say that humans do not have the possibility
9:24 pm
of choosing members of the opposition are not present. among bills, candidates and attention has been on the rise into recent years, especially if compared to the times of fidel castro, where a q or every q and a voting age will cast at ballard. this election is happening in the middle of an enormous economic hardship. wherever you go, people tell you about the difficulties. they have to find medicines and food, long lines of people trying to get gasoline and constant blackouts. all the economic turmoil in cuba has meant a record number of people are leaving the island in 2021, 39000 sought entry to the united states. that number jumped to 224000 last year. rennie fly to south america or mexico, and then they try to cross into the u. s. cuban american population is estimated to be about one and a half 1000000 and growing cubans in the usa. they're skeptical that sunday's vocally to any real change from the caribbean nation. reynolds reports from miami

9:26 pm
against that backdrop, many cuban americans and recent migrants scarf at any notion that cubans legislative elections represent a step toward democracy. we find that funny, ah, when they talk about an election, when the candidate have no opposition to have been had paid by the party, to run on oppose the issue of the elections of cuba for the majority, a loss here and soft flora is irrelevant. cuban officials blame their country's economic woes on us hostility and it's decades long. cold war era, economic embargo, casanya says the elections won't alter the basic realities of life in cuba. we feel as q on people is. this is a dyno for a theater play. at nothing is going to change with the selection ah, as cuba votes for the 1st time in the post castro era,

9:32 pm
he actually issued the statement unilaterally. this apparently angered benjamin netanyahu, who then applied to book it, one of the reason the benjamin netanyahu is because for the member policy back to you of deland. now this was going to pull the strain on the coalition is going to push strain on the government. if that is for the condenser, decided that they weren't good, then the prime minister would lose a majority on the bill would not be passed. now he's actually been replaced now by a guy called avi dix. i was a former head of the ship that is really intelligence agency. he's a lawyer left to that to know who and he's already come out and said that he will back the judicial overall bill. this is a very crucial time, israel, where hope we're going into the parliamentary recess. and about a week's time the protesters are out on the streets and large, and they're protesting every single day. now, there's a large protest to,
9:33 pm
to take place outside parliament on wednesday, incorrect. so appearing within the coalition government, like i said, these full members of the politics, they would have been able to kill any attempts to pass this bill. getting rid of you of the land is a bold, bold move for prime minister benjamin netanyahu. but it's boldly that he continues to play. he always goes for loyalists y'all, gland to a theme by many as being a compromise candidate to that job. he was seen as an adult in the room and a voice of reason. well that voice of reason has now been removed, and so this paved the way for the judicial over whole bill to be passed before the policy the holiday that's coming in just a week's time. okay, im ron, we'll let you go for now. thank you so much for that update from tel aviv. let's bring in a political analyst at keith elder. he's joining us from tel aviv as well. so what's your reaction to this mr. elder? did this come as a surprise?
9:34 pm
i believe that the, the game is not over yet and we're having to words is, was worse ah, pollute to go and the joy digital prices. i think that it would and die in a head on collision between the government and technicians. on one hand and g, a judiciary, and the high cost is already being challenged by an n g o. they're asking good to declare the prime minister, incontinent incompetent of leaving the country and actually abusing his power by ignoring the conflict of interest agreement between him and the supreme court. and i,
9:35 pm
i believe that we're looking at the kind of a word conflict between the ahead. so the secret service, the only the police that will have are but we'll have to make up their mind if they follow the orders of the government all dental. so what do the next sort of 24 to 48 hours look like in your opinion. i believe they're really called the majority of really good fraction in the commission will stand behind that danielle, not because they are not the situation. it's just because there is a kind of, i would even say a kind of genome in really good that i know is not just the prime minister. he is the king got really good and that he can fire any minister and i can do to
9:36 pm
appoint someone else. okay, thank you. a keep elder and thank you for joining us from tel aviv on this breaking news story. let's bring it al jazeera sarah. hi, right now, she's joining us on sat and sorry, or you've just gotten back from palestine and israel, you covered these protests that have been taking place against these judicial reformed. i mean this, this, as iran was saying a moment ago, it's a bold move by netanyahu. what did the protests tell you at the time, the ones that you spoke to, and how do we expect them to react to this announcement? well, throughout these few months since this new ultra riot government that's come in, we've seen huge process and we thought they might go away with that. and she didn't happen. they're coming back in large numbers. and initially it was just the protesters, members of the public that were protesting against this, but slowly over the weeks, is that been going by? we've been seeing not only just people from the civil society, but also within the government themselves, ministers,
9:37 pm
we've had people within the business world that have even been taking their money out of the country for fear of these judiciary reforms because they're worried of what will happen and what those implications mean for investment, for example, international investment. and we've seen teachers that been taking part in these processes, seen people from the tech industry. we've seen people from the agricultural industry. so when you go to these protests, you see lots of groups from a cross section of israeli society that are there. and in the last few weeks, what we're also seeing is people within the military, we now seeing ministers being outspoken opposition or being outspoken people within nathan, y'all, whose party. so we're seeing a large discontent. and this moves now is a big move because the question we've always been asking since this new ultra right wing government ultra nationalist government come in is who has the upper hand? is that prime minister benjamin netanyahu that was almost forced into a coalition with a very fall right? fall right ministers we have, it may have been given who is national security minister. he has
9:38 pm
a conviction of racism against our when we say are the palestinians. we also have smart church who is the finance minister, but he's been given a special role within the fun of the ministries to allow for expansion of westbank settlements. inigo settlements now that was part of the coalition agreement to bring this and yahoo back to pearl. so, so with this move and the continue discontent by some over the judicial reforms, what does this mean for the coalition itself? we're already seeing some cracks last week. we are seeing some cracks and you have when there's been attacks by palestinians against israelis. you've had people like been given much issue, a very vocal who've come out and contradicted, or only stood against netanyahu. in many ways. he thought of been playing a dance, if you like, between the 2. he doesn't want to upset the coalition, but at the same time, he needs to stay in power. but at the same time,
9:39 pm
