[000:00:00;00] ah, [000:00:00;00] a notice in paris, why are electing a new president on april, the 30th foreign policy matters in the fight against corruption, have dominated campaigning? the governing party has been in power for more than 60 years. could this be the moment your position had been waiting for? follow the paraguay elections this month on algebra.

ah . shells hit a hospital near the capital of sedan as a faltering si. fi allows, more people to flee. but un says the fighting must stop for good. use conflict with logs and must not be resolved on the battle field with the bodies of saddam's people. ah, hello, i'm down, jordan, this is out as they are alive from doha. also coming up to the opposing sides and venezuela. sit down together in columbia, president pedro's new initiative to end the crisis next door. and japanese start up . i space loses contact with its lander,

that attempts to make the 1st commercial moon lamps ah silence the guns and stop the fighting immediately. that's the plea from the united nations secretary general to sedans, warring generals antonio terrace, called on sedans. army on the paramilitary rapid support forces to abide by a 3 day cease fire. as a humanitarian crisis, worsens for struggling to learn is not only putting that country's future there 3. so it's a lighting, it's lighting a fuse that could designate the cross barbers caused the mouse suffering for causing human suffering for ears and setting development back for decades. excellencies, the fighting must stop immediately. we need no law. their foot piece. i called on the parties with the conflicts on generals abdel fertile bonham. and my med, i'm done, doug law a med t and the southern is armed forces and the rapid support forces to silence the guns

. it is incumbent on so that his leaders to put the interest of their people front and center. this conflict will not and must not be resolved on the battlefields with the bodies of saddam's. people will have to live to our diplomatic editor james bay's at un headquarters in new york. james at the you and 2nd general antonio terrors just recently wanted sedan is on the edge of the abyss and extremely significant warning. talk us through what more he's been telling a security council now. well he's been painting a really dismal, grim picture of what's going on on the ground of the sex general. i think i've been listening to him and we're now entering the 12th day of this conflict and it's been getting more and more pessimistic. we heard from zachary general about how this could spread. he said that all of the 7 countries that surround sudan have had conflict on rest in recent years. and he's very,

very worried about the violence starting to spread. in fact, we also heard that armed groups and tribes in dar for taking up arms now, and they believe that could suck in at neighboring countries. that's one of the concerns for the united nations. the other concern clearly is the devastating humanitarian situation in the region. and in the country, and of course, many people relied on international aid before the current situation before 12 days ago. and the situation is so much worse. now. latest figures we had from this meeting were 427 people killed and up to 4000 injured. but the you and make it clear that those figures are unlikely to be accurate. because the number, the rach, he counted is probably only a proportion of the real figures, so the real figure of dead and wounded is likely to be a lot higher than that. we also heard from a vulgar preface, who is the un special representative fort sudan, used to be the sex jerome's man in cartoon. but like many of the international

staff of the un, he's now be moved. he was part of an overland convoy that went over 800 kilometers to port saddam the main c port. and that's where the u. n is now going to run a humanitarian hub, or watch that they hope to keep a skeleton staff there. but keep trying to deal with the situation on the ground as best they can, but they know they're not going to get the food and the aid that they used to deliver before this until there is a more lasting cease far. and the word on the ground about the currencies far is that it is very, very patchy, sporadic and only holding in part. the other concern on the humanitarian side, from the united nations is about the neighboring countries chaotic per seams. i'm told, for example, at the border with egypt to sit on egypt border. and the you and hcr i'm told, are also going to be deploying resources to those neighboring countries as quickly as possible. but the, you and i think know that it's one of the areas where they got to catch up with a,

with a rapidly evolving situation. also worth telling you of what was said of the 2 generals, of course, who are not providing the lasting cease father, the international community. want mr. path as briefing from port sudan told the security council, the 2 of them are still trading accusations. neither is ready to seriously negotiate, and each think that they can get a military victory over the other. he then added, this is a miscalculation and this presents a problem for the un security council going forward. what are they going to do? i'm told there was talk of a statement they've already issued one statement. the can't agree on another statement. i think one of the areas of contention is how tough are you on those generals? what they have in their toolkit, potentially, is to accuse those generals and statement of committing war crimes potentially

evening even to put an arms embargo or sanctions on those generals. the downside is that either one of those 2 generals could come out on top and you'll have to deal with them after that. and also in the meantime, if they're trying to extend these very patch he sees fars, these are the 2 men that they're telephoning. are trying to negotiate as, as he's far going forward. a don't worth telling you what's going on in the security council right now, because the russians are giving their statement, the deputy ambassador of russian federation, interesting that russia's had its foreign minister in the seat. most of the day in its deputy foreign minister, while they were discussing israel and palestine, but they've downgraded it quite seriously for the sudan meeting. and the word i've heard from other diplomats is that russia really didn't want this meeting to happen to day when they're foreign minister, sir kayla roth was in town. and after the deputy wrote russian formulas, given the russian statement. interestingly, we're going to hear from some of the neighbors of sudan from egypt to boutique,

ethiopia, south sudan. but also we're going to hear from the sudanese representative on the united nations. and that's interesting because, so don's representative sedans ambassador has not spoken to the security council since the start of crisis started and not has not spoken publicly since this crisis started. so let's listen in to what he has to say. now. a little finally in that in and i feel compassionate celisa schoolroom and the president let me alarm, i would like to thank the secretary general. mister gladish for his efforts and for

his briefing and his efforts to install these ends with them. and i also fac mistake, both these, this mission, representative of the substitute general for his beefing. and i also thank miss reese with brooklyn, miss hoya, and that department, and observe her of the african union as well as the envoy of god. i also convey our deep condolences to the families of those who were killed and also our condolences to egypt and the president. i extend my word, congratulations to you on your country's assumption of the presidency of the council for the current month and week amendment, then ingenuity with which you have steered at the council's agenda. jordan, the month of april. i don't mean to put that he sent events and this was done and that i context based on the official position of the government of sudan at these unfortunate events which started on i drew 15, resulted from the 80000000000 of that up. it's the support forces against the sudan

is on forces in a number of locations and the capital and in some other cities in an attempt to cease the power through a military coup by launching coordinated at bax, initiated by the rebel forces on the residence of the president of the transition or sovereignty council on the headquarters of the general command of the sudanese army on the hot to international airport and on other vital and strategic facilities that back took place on the same day as the scheduled meeting between the president of the transition of solar godson, commander in chief of the army and of the commander of that, i built it up at the support forces it meeting aimed at discussing the technical arrangements for the full integration of that up in the support forces and to the sudanese army in a way that ensures the building of a single national army characterized by professionalism, unity of leadership, command and control. and that the strengthening of its military doctrine. in accordance with the established professional traditions of the sudanese army which have accumulated over more than a century,

i went on me being unknown for professionalism, ordered, guidance and professional discipline. faced with this rebellion and based on its constitution, a national and modern obligation to protect the country's national security that he thought it, integrity, sovereignty, and stability. the armed forces are defending this that the school created by that of lucian and the context of the transition. recognize that originally and internationally for youth with non when my husband will be my mom, the on forces are dealing with this in 1000000000 and a way that would restore non a c and ensure the safety of civilians and the security and stability of the country. while ending of the dual military and security presence, it is well known indeed that in a more than state that the armed forces are united under one with governmental and constitutional entity, which is the regular army. less so than is armed forces and doing so have committed to a combat strategy aiming act minimizing

a civilian casualties and damaged to private and public property. in order to end that the control of the artists f over the government positions homes and private buildings. people they had that says the or captured 3 reasons. the president of the transition of sovereignty council, commander in chief of the armed forces has issued the decision dissolving the r s f and declaring it at abil force against the state. it was announced that some of its units, such as the border guards would be integrated into the armed forces. the door is still open for the members of that. i've been forced to lay down their arms and integrate the sudanese army according to the conditions applied in such cases. how a fog exigencies, ladies and gentlemen, harmony, margaret had murder too. indeed with the spill overs of this crisis. this within his leadership has hinted the calls of the secretary general to implement 30 day chose the marcia model in line with the spirit of the holy month of ramadan and e

that foot to the one and to ensure the safe passage and evacuation of civilians. diplomatic missions and employees of regional and international organizations, as well as the activation of the one that answers and it says i'm working with on that. so then he is on for, says have a dear, that's ridiculous, despite violations by the other wanting out of the ministry of foreign affairs has been receiving since the 1st day of confrontations and throughout the us. ready and many communications from diplomatic missions, you and organizations, and other organizations, them accredited that were, that would be sudan informing us that that headquarters and residences were being at bags and ambassadors, diplomats, and employees and intimidated by the r s f on the, on, in my elation of international humanitarian law. you my, the president was out of her to do that. so then he is minister of foreign affairs to ensure the security and safety of this diploma admissions,

and align with its duty immediately informed the competent state authorities of these infringements on all the state authorities proceed, proceeded to the enforcing security around that diplomatic headquarters and life of the circumstances the country is going through. however, the activities of that had been forces that use of various weapons and residential and civilian areas. and that they had a fax with on civilians and looting of their properties represent them an ongoing threat to public security and safety in general or voc macabre waldron and, and die quickly endangered. the headquarters and staff of diplomatic missions and international and the general organizations work. these have been forces also targeting law enforcement agencies and releasing inmates and detainees, some of whom are convicted of serious crimes, such as better isn't human trafficking and murder. even this poses

a threat to public security honda and illustrates the lack of discipline at work and loss of command and control. and this force we call on own country. you said that want security stability and peace for sudan to condense these debit forces for their deployment and continued fighting in populated cities and residential areas which endangers civilians, including women and children. when you feed on the food, we would like to mention that the resident of the transition of sovereignty council commander in chief of the army. you stand enchanted, allowed the effect that had been hon. had received corps from several heads of state followed, requesting him to facilitate and ensure the evacuation of their nationals and diplomatic missions as excellency, agreeable to provide the necessary assistance that if you do a promo, the article 70 diplomatic missions and organizations normally wishing to evacuate, evacuated hundreds of employ,

awful thought would be cooperation of the sudanese authorities which counted the necessity authorizations and provided care and protection for the evacuated until they reached ma'am with other well safer cities from among not inside. so don norman, up no more were air lifted out of the country. norma, i showed that you and successfully general m. midland with the head, with people for the appraisal. fucking was, who was in the, who will on, on monday, the evacuation process, which did not witness any incident that was on normally, it's worth know thing about these. a successful evacuations would coordinated by the truth. some of this is lauren included the following countries. a lot of the saudi arabia, usa here, see china, japan and june, jordan referral egypt. we equate hopper cutter burner, spain, he thought bitterly, a number for the united kingdom, ammonia, germany, bangladesh, libya,

libya. marcus, the pakistan on france. melisha melisha, melisha, indonesia symbol for singapore, lebanon, canada, canada, within the netherlands, seaboard, liberty and india. booty to south korea, the major hungary of them. then mike, with utica, benjamin witness turnage, us referral, switzerland, himself austria, murray, medical design and, and julia with emma, we'll see. and china, montgomery global good. furthermore, residents from being national of agency and i, columbia, ireland, for to god's venezuela and mexico. turkey full of the palestine, iraq, it act was who and syria would also m. r evacuated. world universe utilize citizens from an idea gun avenue kenyatta are preparing to leave sudan with one of them. tuition processed as that into the mentor national level that's defying to the efficiency of the sudanese, the armed forces, and supervising the conduct of operations. despite the security from edison,

ladies and gentlemen is normally not be as we express our application for the efforts of elderly and friendly countries and region and organizations and to help calling the situation and the country. and in particular, the efforts of a god that the african union and that the league of ab states. we would like to emphasize that this matter is an internal matter and that should be left to best. suzanne is to find that required solutions amongst themselves, away from negative international interferences. we are deeply concerned over the insistence of some members of the security council to convene a series of necessity, council meetings, that sort of their national agendas and have nothing to do with the interests of this within his people in the vessel down to will not accept the negative pressure exercised by some of the security council members, the african union, which is the organization they're presenting, the african continent often has clearly called to refrain from interfering and this, and doesn't matter. and they're sudan is closely working with a god and african union or harness the good them offices when conditions permit at

the hot to an airport, which was damaged as it is on the of the repeat that that backs by at abil forces on this would on believes and the principle of african solutions to african challenges on which as and line of where that chapter is not on the 8th of the un charter and the security council must uphold these provisions off the charter. and respectively, the employer sovereignty of regional organizations and the good on sudan, and it's eddie gentle neighbors leadership in dealing with the current situation suitable use. madam president of nestle, don, is committed positively and on the highest level of the their own of the secretary general. and that his own from good offices, one of them is based on his integrity and push ality and pull it the good experience with the hunter for in good, okay, disagreements, not when armed conflict,

forget damages. i invite the council to adopt the secretary of generators approach and examine the underlying causes of conflict. the following was, you know, in line with this bit of the founding fathers of the united nations. and this context of this woman is committed to enforcing the political transition process engaging in dialogue and committing through the cessation of hostilities and is bonding positively to reach in and mediation efforts. we therefore hold while that's loaded vote, all of the security council will be harmonized as so that its contribution. one of them does not constitute an obstacle to the good offices of the sector to generate my, the president, one your did the committee for missile dan has been on the, on the agenda of the security council for the past 18 years. we have made a great effort while we were to engage with the counselor more positively than before. rather, united, including by attending meetings of the international criminal court with all after it was the local to do,

we have also tried to limit the designation of sudan under chapter 7 by ending the sanctions. you and wisdom inquires that sudan should not be subjected to any further resolutions. therefore, i call on the council. i don't deserve the positive engagement officer done. mm. and a to deal with the develop plans. and so don, i through irrational approach sort of the yahoo of the, of the suit in line with our narrative of what i as autoclaved that suzanne is still elicited. and the hell the prisoner repugnant vessel, done escape of an of defending against national interests for you. and to add that you've been with, with the council ny lemmings, and it's current division. we have explained why the boycott from so imposed in the aftermath of the 25th of october 2021 was in read events with we thank you and system for positively engaging with the sudan nominate we should indeed work on containing the current situation and give this with the under chance to engage with

at each in an effort such as a gods. and how did they you done on that the arab league and endeavors were so hard to find the solution to the conference room she with on. so worth mentioning that the sudan, despite her it's hardships, she could walk, walk to people. and despite the positions of some states managed to get 157 out of 195 votes and the elections of the human rights council, which back likely means that the boycott has ended. now she and i called upon the counselor, to strike a balance of between sudan scolding situations which cannot be described as a civil war or wide spread or still it is october is i'm considering its commitment to it and you with an extended humanitarian truth is on working and the commitment of the on forces to manage the evacuation. welcome over all of it could edited that diplomatic love and you and international love on the one hand live and the

responsibility of the security council in maintain aimed on a certain international peace and security on the other hand. and this case loses from the security council is it presented by the peace and security council of the african union and e gun which also have their own. we've come on of experience and conflict resolution aligned with the charter to which defines that all of reach in an organization's industry, gods. my city that the african union has adopted the principle of african solutions . the african problem. last yes we're down should be given the opportunity to it in your home model site and collaboration with any channel and godly bhakti mom. so that should not be pushed into dealing with the emerging national security threat alone and will face a boycott that and some of the parties seek to impose there. so down favors and interactive and positive engagement with the un which intern enhances its ability to adapt and go with the most difficult circumstances. and the current events

wouldn't have happened with her had the international community shouldered its commitments and provided the financial support for finalize. the did the, our process usually we audited them. if you go in dot 4 is current, which would be an example to follow in the household on what we are. we're at the base buildings process and i was short sight denford. you heard of some parties through the who tried you ha, mom earlier to include the end of the integration process. inputs not work relevant to the armed forces, leilani, undermining the principle of national ownership that i have on from the heritage of the sudanese army and its well known contributions to peacekeeping operations. since the sixty's within the united nations, michelle's and sony, you've all been with us was on the humanitarian situation, has deteriorated as some cities as a result of the clashes. these glasses have led to the feeling of a large number of civilians from their area as to other safer cities and areas within suzanne go home and have resulted in

a deterioration and the living conditions. in general. the affected area suffer a shortage of food resources and insecurity due to the hostilities of it have been forces and a lack of health care when we have extra city and drinking water. well, i'm because i was warranty. you wouldn't have been with the government addicted that rules for another 3 days, that the competent authorities and sudan, ours bearing no effort to improve their humanity. a situation by providing assistance to those affected restoring and improving basic services, such as healthcare electricity found on drinking water with a visit and in housing security her, the son, i think the opportunity here is to thank the friendly and brotherly countries that took the initiative to provide humanitarian assistance to this so that his people through bilateral engagement with competence within his authorities. and specifically, is that the bank that you eat, which has provided $50000000.00 to support the humanitarian apr going to conclude

later visit denton video. i do not need physical evidence to prove the scale of the damages and suffering caused by the rebellion, and it's devastating consequences. but despite all of the above that, so danny mays remains united states. are you assuming it's functions with the responsibility? i'm, you know, and it did not declare the state of emergency and the events of non did not have any channels spill over warehouse who got has in there. so donna will defeat these difficult circumstances and how soon we hoped to end the rebellion when she's ugly . and we call on the counsel is to understand the exceptionally birch and situation and the ground. so down the time it needs dakota for us to say you're watching live pictures or from the you end, the sudanese ambassador addressing the un merlots crossover. back to our diplomatic editor james bay's was been watching proceedings. james, as you say, the 1st time we've heard from sedan at the un since his crisis talk us through what the ambassador has been saying. well, the ambassador describing this as

a rebellion, saying it was a rebellion of military coups by the rapid support forces, making it clear, we didn't know which, where he stood exactly on this, but he's very much supporting the army. he's very much supporting general bo hon, which is important because what's going on in sudan right now is not just a battle for control. it's a battle for legitimacy. and if this becomes a prolonged conflict, them the country that or the party that holds the seat at the un, that's an important diplomatic card. having said that, i'm not sure who's going to win that many friends because there was criticism there of the un security council. he said they shouldn't be calling meetings about this. there should be the african union that is taking the lead. he also said the international committee was to blame for what had happened here. are talking going back to dar for the conflict there, the peace building process. i see me referring to the change. we'd militia that eventually got subsumed into what is the r s f. so interesting that we now know the position of the sedan government. one of the bit of news for you, darren,

and we've been hearing the secret general sneaking of this, this meeting of the un security council. little earlier on. i will, i can tell you the un secretary general is shortly on his way from here in new york . he's heading to washington d. c, where he's going to have meetings with the u. s. t extra estate. antony blinking, who along with the secretary general, has been trying to, to negotiate these sees vars patchy, sees files and trying to extend them. so i'm sure sudan will be top of the agenda and the secretary of state and the secretary of general meet in the coming hours. so that i think is something to look forward to not here in new york, but in washington d. c. as the security council meeting here in new york wraps up with the regional countries, the neighboring countries speaking now. all right, i didn't get it to james bass there at un headquarters in new york. james, thank you. well, i think from me, darren jordan, you can find more news on our website, al jazeera dot com. there is on your screen next inside story examines european

plans to find more green energy sources. stay with us. ah, ah. it's rainy again in japan, when i say again with increased wind, that probably means the cherry blossoms will be blown off the trees. having had a good early season. it means toe cares about 90 degrees in the mostly wet wednesday. but everything to the west is fine. reasonably warm temperatures are coming up again in china where they came down febreeze out of mongolia and the gobi desert, but it has dusted it does little effect. beijing, i would say to thursday, you'll see some rain, some light rays developing the young c valley, but otherwise, boylen has gone up to a reasonable $21.00. having dropped right down a couple of days ago in the sunnyside in japan. nope. to keep us in the philippines, very wet in thailand and me and ma,

she's taken bankcorp temperatures right back down below where they normally would be for average for certainly well below the reco. breaking heat of light more heavy rain possibly in potentially malaysia. and also in bornea may be in java and increasing likelihood of showers in the sun, half of india. the knowles is still quite hot, but not as hot as it walls, bangladesh. you'll notice that goes down to about $35.00 degrees. does not reco breaking me hold? this could be interesting though, developing showers in pakistan coming in from the west could be quite significant white lot, quite large and flooding. ah . but the climate has changed every year for millions of years. decades of talk, a little action is all about distract, create confusion to pay, smoke and mirrors the shocking truth about how the climate debate has been systematically voted the. busy oil industry was
