1:02 pm
who the rebels and the saudi led coalition are holding a large scale prisoner exchange. emotional reasons had been taking place in san hours. the 1st group of proof, prisoners arrived home, more than $800.00 detainees from each side are expected to be released over the next 3 days. while the exchange is part of a broader diplomatic effort to end the 9 year conflict, a mom has been mediating talks to make a temporary cease fire become permanent. and those negotiations come after iran and saudi arabia agreed to restore diplomatic relations and a deal broke road by china. the m and conflict is widely seen is a proxy war between saudi arabia and iran. while i was here as hush, marco bar has been covering yemen forest for many years. he's joining us live now in the studio hash. hm. this is part of a wider process working towards hopefully some sort of piece deal. how significant is this particular prisoner swap?
1:03 pm
this is quite significant in the sense that this is something that could further 1st time be conducive to irma settlement or the conflict in yemen are covered. so the key negotiations between the health is and their government in the past, particularly in geneva to 1016. and then in kuwait a year later, and then in stockholm, in 2018, the stumbling block was visited chains. there were huge differences about who should be included in the list, where should it happen? and then a final list, oh, or of the number of prisoners that didn't work this time, it was possible simply because of the deal between iran and saudi arabia, which is that in trickle down. and to get to the point where we're seeing this spectacular emotional scenes of people relating with their loved ones, both in santa and also in i did, this is going to generate further hope that this could be conducive to an end to the conflict indian. quite interesting, and i want to ask you about the bigger picture in a moment, but in terms of the time. and so this what happens next?
1:04 pm
so expected the a red cross to deploy planes over the last 3 days in different parts of yemen. and also the react because we're expecting a saudi prisoners of war to be released to morrow and for the list to continue in our den, and also inside out once this is completed, we're expecting by the end of ramadan, an announcement over tuesday is going to be extended for 6 months. now there were choices before, particularly last year. why this is very important because this could be a permanent us between the saudis and the hoses. if he happens, it will definitely give us an indication though we are moving towards a political settlement. never before had all the parties been determined on the need for a permanent says fire, particularly saudi arabia, which has somehow realized that the military campaign is launched into 1015 fail to achieve its military gains,
1:05 pm
or that the conflict continues. the health is continued to increase and expand their political influence, and suddenly the decided of finance decided it was about time to end and bring about a sense of peace and stability to the regent. and you said that this was, at least in part, predicated by the reproach monster like that's been reached by saudi arabia and iran. what are the wider implications, though, the possible repercussions of this? so it was obvious to everyone that this was something connected to the deal between saudi arabia and iran, because sarabia now are with accomplish muhammad, the cell man, launching this massive transformation of the country. he's looking forward to see the country change itself. he's looking forward to put billions of dollars of investments in the capital we are in, in new york in different parts of the country. but to do that, you need to have peace. you don't want to see your country being brain done by drugs and mislead laying from your moleck. you happened for years ago to do that,
1:06 pm
you have to have a political settlement, but you can also get indicators of this is something that is further going to expand to breach. syria is no coincidence that the c and foreign minister is in reality, it will definitely reach libya, a, in a, in a 3rd phase. this is an interconnected political process where the saudis are definitely using their political and financial my to further flex their diplomatic muscles in the region. to do that, they do understand that they have to team up with the iranians for the simple reason. iran has huge se over the whole, these have control the northern part of the country. i should for no, thank you very much indeed. as our desires hush an awful barrow. while they take a closer look at the war in yemen, the conflict began as part of the adam spring of 2011 when president ali abdulla sullen, gave up po to his deputy after years of instability, who the rebels, backed by iran, captured the capital senate in 2014 and demanded a new government. a coalition led by saudi arabia and the united arab emirates,
1:07 pm
back to the internationally recognized government and launched a military campaign against the hu. these in 2016 u. n. back talks between the jamini government and rebels began in kuwait, but it didn't stop the fighting. then in 2017 who the rebels killed former president, sir, after he broke ties with the group. that year later, you own broke or talks made progress. and last year the warning sides agreed to a truce, which lasted for 6 months. money, fire marshal or big is a political analyst based in salary, ruby, he's joining us now from re and thank you very much. indeed for being with us. our correspondent hash yamaha barra was explaining some of the background that may of lead to the circumstances that we're seeing today, between saudi arabia and yemen. what is your understanding of how significant a moment this is, and why saudi arabia has decided to take this step? no, robin, thank you for having me,
1:08 pm
but to let me clear. one more thing. the swab, it's not between the show did a b and it's between legitimate government men and also the conflict. it's between the legitimate government here, man and dad. of course it's, it's a quite significant step. it's the bidding and then which one is trust between the legitimate government and data ot and also her parents the way to beat a plan in yemen. one of the, yeah, many of which are told i shall close up on a b, b about that. that will be a piece to plan. a consist still for 3 faces. that is phase will be that toss the cease fire center eyes is that central bank open up the air board for c port. it's the old of the old lift,
1:09 pm
the sanctions. and i see on that as and also the 2nd page will be the political dialogue for to reach agreement between all the parties. what will be there for a form of a state of the men in the future. the 3rd page will be the transition period, which was expected to be 2 years. but we have to mention that the complex, it's not a bit to get a b i. i'm hoping it's between the legitimate government and then over the outside that a be a support digital government by it was in march of 2015 to a hub. them to it. and the cool, you know, did it by and i understand what you're saying about the structure of it, that it is a swap between the legitimate government of yemen as you describe it of which is of course, supported by saudi arabia, which has of course, it helped to facilitate this prisoner swap, that has, that has happened. however,
1:10 pm
the next stage of course, is trying to find some sort of lasting piece in yemen. what do you see as the potential hurdles or the stumbling blocks or the problems that might be faced ahead of reaching some sort of final solution to that issue? i think that is 2 factors. why we are kind of optimistic to re chair. but the last piece to any i meant the 1st i think it's a matter of butter which is started in february 2020. 1 of the odd that is belie, expected, this is a bottle, would change the cost added the with the would have about hon. negotiation care, but they didn't succeed. it's that time one of the office called prosperous, that number of casualties. and 2nd,
1:11 pm
i think that iranian so d packed air, which is a product called by china play major rule to to, i think, to expect from the, to go to regression shed tables. and that's the same the same way he did it in 2014, when he went to national dialogue of the i met. and then he did the cook, i think into fact that if you will accept this time to go to negotiation table. and i expected this is the piece will be the last, but we have to give it for a transition. i think we expected 3 to 5 for you to see how that all parties of you can handle it. and you state the new form of the spirit when the out of going to
1:12 pm
have election with it as they have to have a new constitution. you mentioned before that this bad least in part was but was motivated or at least predicated by this deal. that was done by this arrangement that was done by saudi arabia and iran, which was broken by china. as you mentioned, up until now, saudi arabia's relations on the international stage have been very closely tied to the united states. are we seeing a re focusing of saudi arabia's foreign policy in a different direction? now if i call it, i call it a positive news. hello, this is g of the policy of the united states is the strategic ad security bottom. so there may be, but at the same time, the large, the largest trade barton bob sort of showed that a, b i is china and more important part. so i would showed that a been obvious blockage that i shot it showed that it'd be it now. they have to
1:13 pm
start their relation with the waste with the washington london buddies by lead roxanne, the plot. some are the same time they have too strong relation with jean with moscow with the new delay. now we, we out and cons fall out of transition. we are not in the same situation, 26. so for new, somebody 1991. when the soviet union collapsed, united states, the only sub holla, and we expect now if it were for him or william berry when he said united states, it's not the only shop on mike merely the chairman of the joint chiefs w. that should also say, actually not the only support bala, we are an apollo transition. and this time we showed that a bad to be in new trouble to have struggling alicia doesn't mean that it will be a lie only with the united states. it will have
1:14 pm
a strong relation with china with the, with out, with europe, with the latin american morning of how much we appreciate your being with us and i'll just do so. thank you very much. indeed for your time. any more had on the new, sorry, sitting argentinians, blaine, the international monetary fund for growing poverty and rising prices and stretched fin and losing public support. we're going to look at the challenges facing the un peacekeeping mission. and molly ah, health workers, mozambique, or warning people of the dangers of color as it stops the disease from spreading the country, suffering its worst outbreak in 20 years. you comes up to cycling. freddy stark twice in february and march. at least a 1000000 people have been affected. well we can i speak to our zeros farmer to miller live from my put it in mozambique. how are the efforts to try to contain the
1:15 pm
color outbreak going on where you are while it remains an ongoing concern and that's especially off to cycling pretty. as you'd mentioned, while there was great to preparation a head of that cyclone and tropical storm and so lives was saved. there was a significant impact on infrastructure, health services, sanitation and water facilities. and that's what's causing the current problem. now mozambique is prone to cholera outbreaks, but as you said, this is the worst in about 2 decades. and that's because of how flooding that cyclone in the service is such a sanitation and water were impacted. and the greatest concern for aid agencies is how it will impact a young children who are most vulnerable. and they're also worried that they'll be a great occurrence of various water board diseases like cholera and malaria and things like that to one of the highest causes of death of 4 young people in a region like this. so they are ongoing efforts to make sure people are vaccinated
1:16 pm
at least 720000 vaccinations with distributed in the last 4 or 5 weeks. but the government does aim to target about $2000000.00 people in the coming months, hours, the rebuilding effort going off to the, the cycle and the level of damage that it reached over the country was very significant. as a government managed to get some sort of hold on that well, the government is also relying on the assistance of agencies and unicef, in particular, has said that one of its areas of concern is education. children in areas like the zombies or region, which was hard hit by that psych loan are out of school at the moment. they say at least 134000 children aren't able to attend school and continue their education because the infrastructure was damage. we've also seen damage of a certain of roads and people be able to travel from one area to another. and again, very key all those health services, which is very important at the stage when the government is trying to tackle the
1:17 pm
issue of disease. farmer, thank you very much indeed. as farmer miller talking to us from moto a member of the u. s. national gods been arrested on suspicion of leaking classified documents on line. include sensitive military intelligence about the warning ukraine 21 year old jack to sheila was taken into custody from his home in massachusetts. no questions about how he got access to state secrets as rosalyn jordan reports surrendering without a fight. 21 year old jack douglas to sharon was of rustic by federal agents on thursday at his home in massachusetts. he's the air national guard member accused of sharing images of classified military documents in a gamers chat room material that ended up circulating widely online. today, the justice department arrested jack douglas to sherif in connection with an investigation into alleged unauthorized removal, retention,
1:18 pm
and transmission of classified national defense information to share it is an employee of the united states air force, national guard f. b i. agents took to sure and to custody earlier this afternoon. without incident to shera is expected to be arraigned in boston. federal court on friday. his case is important because the documents he allegedly shared include detailed pentagon analyses on the u. s. lead effort to support ukraine and its war against russia. evidence the u. s. was spying on its ally, south korea, and reports accusing the israeli intelligence agency, most sod of stoking recent anti government. protests reports most saw denies at the pentagon. u. s. officials say service members get security clearances based on their job duties. not on their age. a policy maintained across the u. s. government look again, we have procedures. we have protocols in place. we receive regular training on the
1:19 pm
proper, a handling of classified information. as i mentioned, we sign nondisclosure agreements. so those rules are very clear. anyone who has the security clearance knows that anyone who violates those rules is doing so willfully . earlier on thursday, the u. s. president appeared to down play the importance of the material leaked. i'm not concerned about the ladies and i'm concerned it happened. nothing contemporaneous with that said by arresting to shera. the u. s. is making it clear, making classified information. public is illegal. rosalyn jordan elder sarah washington. i'm who is jack to shed a while. the 21 year old join the massachusetts air national guard. it's a reserve of the u. s. air force. in september 2019. it was a member of the intelligence wing. the shadow was reportedly the leader of an invitation only discord chat room created in 2020 members chair, a love of guns,
1:20 pm
racist means, and gaming reports by the belling cat investigative journalism organization suggests the files imagine discord in march, but may have been posted as far back as january, glen calls a career cia officer and a former deputy national intelligence officer for trans national threats. he says the leaks are serious and damaging. and i agree with president biden, that the information shared is not particularly center sensitive in the context of what kinds of information the united states knows. however, as we unfortunately all can now see that is quite extensive and in depth on honor. dizzying array of subjects, the consequences are grave. the reports show certain kinds of information that the
1:21 pm
united states is obtained. and the russians will probably identify their, i fear that they will, i hope they know who the specific sources were really some. and then they're probably going to be killed. so that's great. the loss of the capability to obtain information is grieve and more broadly that all of us can see what the united states knows how it thinks, what it doesn't know, what who is interested in. it is only a help to america's adversaries and hurts american national security came rules. and it's a chronic problem for the united states to distribute people classified information too widely, where the national security establishment is huge. there are dozens of thousands of people, and there are many channels that one can use to say, this information is wrong. we shouldn't be obtaining it. but we don't do that on your own of your own volition without creating frankly, an act of treason and
1:22 pm
a national security problem. brazil's president luther nothing lives silva has been given a state welcome by china's leader. she didn't think of phasing the 2 leaders that are expected to find ways to further boost political and economic ties. china is brazil's biggest trading partner on the war, and ukraine is also likely to be discuss, going to speak to richard campbell, who's following the visit from hong kong. what is going to be top of the, the agenda at this meeting? richard, what was the whole raft of trade deals that are likely to be discussed? first and foremost, president lula has brought with him a delegation of some 200 business representatives in the hope of catching him as much as possible on this trip. some of those trade deals will involve semiconductors, someone and both agriculture agreement also involved carbon credit. so the climate change targets. there's also expectations president lula will try and make the most of an appointment made just yesterday of the former brazilian president dillman
1:23 pm
roost to head up a new development bank that will oversee investment projects that will manage all the efforts being made in developing countries that are part of the bricks framework, that of course, being brazil, russia in the china and south africa and for brazil to be heading that now at a time when president lula is in town, is again seen as a great opportunity for him to make the most of the broad and again, it's important chinese economic relationship. yeah, and richard, as you say, i mean brazil is a partner in bricks with russia and china eighty's. fairly reasonable to assume that are going to be some discussions over the war in ukraine. that's right, the expectation is that president, leader is going to propose to president she to build out. china is own piece proposal for the russia ukraine situation by setting up what's being dumped as a league of nations effectively to work together on trying to make that peace deal work the stuff in speaking to him. today you see the benefit to brazil of doing that is it will give president lula and brazil global cache to be part of some kind
1:24 pm
of international effort to try and broker a p steel. the benefit to china, they say, is to try and give china international credibility for a piece of it, which is so far, not really had the backing, specifically of any large overseas nations. instead, it's just felt scrutiny and suspicion from the part of the us and its allies, largely because of china's very close relationship with russia. the problem for trying to perhaps is that while it might get the backing of brazil and other bricks nations with this piece proposal, it might be hard to sell to get countries outside of that bricks framework to come on board. but nevertheless, this could be a way for trying to advance its efforts to put it so food as a global mediator on the russia, ukraine conflict in a way that beijing says the west and particularly the u. s. and nate, so i've just simply not been able to self so far. so because he's an interesting developments on that front too. richard, thank you very much. indeed. that's what your temper talking to us from hong kong.
1:25 pm

a lot of water to go under the bridge. and it's, it's still controversial. you know, a lot of people haven't forgot what a side has done. however, i think many in the arab world, especially the ruling elites, are looking really into the future. and they're looking at reintegrating, syria into the arab fold, in order for them to, you know, for their regional projects to continue. so while there's going to be turbulence in their re entry back to the arab league, i think in the long term there was going to be a, a reintegration somehow. why with saudi arabia, for example, feel that it was beneficial to the out of the to have syria returned to it? well, i think firstly, when we look at what the sally discourse is all about recently, you will hear a lot of vision 2030. it plays a very salient role or central role,
1:41 pm
not discourse. and i think vision 2030 cannot be achieved. and i think this is what this algorithm saudi ruling elite kind of deduced is that these lofty ambitious plans for the region cannot happen unless there's a stable region and reducing this competition between regional actors, mainly iran, turkey, and others over spheres of influence such as syria and lebanon, so i think they're trying to create a more, a environmentally a investment, friendly environment for foreign direct investment. and that's really at the core, i think of what decide you willingly have besedia and there's a decision setting president bashar al assad is of course, facing accusations. war crimes are members of his government. if sevea becomes part

of the out of leave, i much difficulty could that create for the league itself. well, it's going to create a lot of difficulty, of course, but you know, it's, it's going to be a new avenue for at least discussing what, how they could overcome these challenges and what kind of re repercussions can i sat pay to enter back into the, the arab league, now, i don't suspect aside will enter into the arab league ah, free from any stress. i think there are going to be things and concessions that he has to make. and i think it's going to be a process of re integration. i do, i see this as a slow process of reintegrating, syria and inevitably be, i said we're here. but it's going to be conditioned and it's going to be something
1:43 pm
that will be somewhat palatable for some you know, what a sad has done is something back can not be for gung, i would say and is going to be very difficult. but that's going to be part of the fabric of the arab league on we have iraq, for example, invaded kuwait for the region and somehow recuperates and rehabilitate itself. and i think with time this will be very, very beneficial. i would say time time time is will be a good healer of these things. really interesting to get your thoughts on this. abdul aziz al gusher and thank you very much indeed for being with us. my pleasure . thank you very much for having egypt. and so kiera said they're going to as soon re appoint ambassadors as they seek to men ties after years. attentions, egypt fallen. mr. summers shortly met his turkish counterpart. mother couch of
