this is how is citizen gen listen, we played in the story, the listening post. i fixed the media. we don't cover the news, we cover the way the news is covered. all of latin america for most of my career, but no country has a light and it's my job to shed light on how and why the and shakes, but no promises. yes, they tell us diplomats or is in china in the latest bet, to stabilize relations. the, i don't know about this, and this is obviously life of doha, also coming up a new sweet spot in so done this one seems to be holding so far overhauling the constitution, people and molly begin voting on the future of the nation. the monitoring crisis

gets worse in haiti as gang violence cops off communities. the, the secretary of state is meeting china is foreign minister invasion. it's the highest level us official visit in 5 years on to me, banking entry and gang are expected to have a working dinner off to the talks like lincoln's trip was initially planned for february, but it was postponed after i suspected the chinese bible and flew over us air space, while the head of lincoln's visit evasions, foreign ministry spokesman has said the us needs to respect the china is cor concerns. that includes tie one tensions with china escalated last year, informing us how supported speaker and nancy pelosi visited the island on china health, 3 days of wall games. so the time when he's present sign,

when stopped over in the united states in april, the 2 are also locked in a buffalo on technology, b u. s. as in post sanctions and export controls on major chinese manufacturing and technology farms. beijing has also buying products made by some us tech companies in recent months, the buying, the ministration is trying to show up in military alliances and the asia pacific, including japan, india, mistretta, and the philippines. gotten a moment to, we're going to speak to bonnie below who's standing by for us and new type a city. but 1st we're going to head to katrina. you who's in beijing. this is all about what can be delivered to let you take aside from all the rhetoric that we're going to hear. what are the 2 sides trying to work towards katrina as well. staging is really looking for a syringes that washington is not going to interfere and what it says, it's domestic, physical interest, including taiwan and use of your state as we blinking has said that his goals of 3

full firstly to develop the crisis management negatives. and to promote us interest to find some areas of common ground. now, it must be said that expectations for any concrete breakthroughs during this visit, very low, but it doesn't mean that this is significant. many of trying as naep is a worry that things have gotten so bad between the us and china, that tensions are in danger of spiraling into some sort of open conflict. and so that really hoping that during this visit, thinking will really help just to establish some blog rails with st. j. they're also helping it's such as god wrote that they discuss those areas that they can be worked together to achieve. some people work ration that productive. so in the areas of climate change, for example, a global health and in other areas is for example of stemming this was a pendulum. it's a really interesting relationship, isn't it? because a lot of the stuff that we cover and all just 0 is of course to do with the diplomatic fall at the military stuff. strategic changes that are going on in disputes and so on. but the economic links between china and the us remain very strong. one would

imagine that's going to be a key element of these thoughts. absolutely. did you find during your space, you talk to each other you through the law just didn't want to be in the world's face from trading ties. and that relationship does impact also with the global economy. now that has also be rocky, that during the g 7 a president blades, excuse the choose train of economic, where is it? one of the countries to the risk will essentially rely less on chinese supply chains that jury ace in china is also traded. bob and accused of us itself is economic collision. also on the areas of technology, there is a strong rivalry that we seem to us with a number of export controls on chinese technology. companies including wall way in the name of national security in china has said that the time is that washington has really tried to contain staging economically. now, despite this crusty resurrect trade between the 2 sides is extremely robust. in

fact, it's better than it's ever been. so the will be certainly told about stabilizing and improving even i'm also that relationship to, to, to thank you very much indeed to the you bring us up to date from beijing. we're going to bring in bond to below. he's a new type, a city one gets the impression from the outside that the future of taiwan is essentially being decided between 2 other countries. what are people in taiwan hoping far from these talks to rob expectations are pretty low here, given that the pensions have been rising in the past few months. and so people here are just happy that the 2 sides are talking and they're hoping that this would be escalate pensions. now having said that, of high one does prepare for any eventuality. it holds annual military drills. and right now we are in a new type, a city. and right behind me is a type, a hardware. that was the mob enemy target last year,

not park for military drills. civilians themselves are also prepare you preparing for the possibility of war of the time when these people from all walks of life spending their weekend learning 1st aid and survival. during the past year, the coma academy has held classes for thousands, for wherever you book, potential chinese occupations. i'm very afraid that next price it will be our turn to be like hong kong. so if they're a new, some lecture like this, to teach how to be fun, some sort of like from china all just try to just the threat of an invasion, may not necessarily be imminent, but organizers of a training camp. and those taking part say, don't want to get caught unprepared to the there's a lose the possibility of an aren't going to these. what should, of course, there's no certainty when or if it didn't happen. but it's got to be that the to

that end, the government is also playing it's part recently released and updated handbook and civil defense to teach us how to distinguish between time when needs and chinese soldiers. and it has a link showing where a bomb shelters can be found. this subway station in type paid doubles as an air raid shelter there, more than 5000 of them all over the city, from car parts to basement. anything under ground combined, we can accommodate about 12000000 people. the rising tensions into taiwan street aren't just between china and taiwan. however, earlier this month, the us accused the chinese worship of an unsafe maneuver. after nearly collided with an american destroyer, china told the us to stay away from the region in mind its own business seems sites here in town when he's on us who overly worried about the possibility of a premeditated calculated attack from china. what tony's all worry about however, is the possibility of accidental escalation from all of these trying me 3 assets,

airplanes, and ships in time with neighborhood pilots, president chain one has increased engagements with us officials to counter any threat. the annexation by china, china has responded with more military activity. now taiwan will be looking to the us to ease these tensions. barnaby low, l. g 0. type a. new 3 days fire has begun to ensue. done choose, brokered by the us inside of a be a follows the kenning on saturday of 17 people in an air striking the capital cost to the warning sides have repeatedly broken previous these fires. so the enzyme has been battling the part of military rapids support forces since april had been logged into boats from under my the people here say that the whole thing a ceasefire, or holding out an ending or halting, fighting for 24 hours is much easier than 72 hours,

especially with so much attention between the parent military rapids support forces and this with the new army. but the mediator has made it very clear that a loss is a take at best on best ceasefire to that should any sides violated by carrying out any military moves or artillery strikes or as strikes or using drones or throw bait surveillance on the other party. then talk in the side of the city of just that which is hopes to achieve the permanent ceasefire between the parent military rapids support forces. and this is the new army will be agend. so people here say that they are hopeful that the 1st 24 hours would hold because they've seen the last 24 hours and they saw that it did hold and that's listened. aid was able to come in to those who need it. and in some parts of the capital, at least, but they say that they're not sure if the 2 sides would be able to hold a fire for a period of 3 days. it's been 3 hours just over 3 hours now into this latest these fires so far, many people say that it seems to be holding. there's been no sounds of as trucks or

heavy artillery or gunfire being exchanged by retirement through rapids with forces and the sudanese army. so people say that once it's 24 hours and they going to see how the remaining 48 hours go. and then they would know that the ceasefire has also been successful agencies on the border between sit down and chat and say they're over found by hundreds of when did escaping the fighting in westdale for many children. but not the parents are dying with no food. english rocket reports from the board. a ton of audrey. let me give you a warning that his reports contains distressing images. they survived the violence and today, in chad, another struggle begins. 8 organizations say they were not prepared for the humanitarian crisis to become this big this quickly. the people who arrived with gunshot wounds, one woman gave birth in this open field, they tell us men, boys, even young girls were taken prisoner one way. but for some the journey from west

our floor was too much. when land has the boy scouts and people, the baby was sick and she died on the way here. the baby's mother left her here to search for her other children. her family and chad is seeing her for the 1st time. they don't even know if she had any of those who make it, try to find friends and relatives. there are reunions. the precious to you and hcr is here. they are doing assessments and someone told us that they have never seen it. this bad that they are incredibly under funded. they do not have enough money to help people here with anything. and the, the international community simply doesn't care enough about this price is that it is just pure chaos. summarize only to bury the children they flag here to say in the smallest graves, 2 girls and a little boy, none older than 3. their fathers did not make it across. the

cheerful, think died from weak is because they had no food, and their mothers didn't have the milk to feed them. that because of hunger caused by the war and not just them, probably the numbers will go up in the next few days. they tell us their government to their country and the world have abandoned. their situation, they say, is hopeless zane bus route. the ultra 0 audrey on the track to the end border chimes, transitional presidents, been meeting local officials in audrey. the government says 20000 uncertainties. refugees of cost in to chat since friday. in the past week andres registered around 45000 refugees. well, how much interest debbie's using his visit to highlight the scale of the humanitarian crisis to? i think a leaders have been in russia urging president vladimir putin to end the war in ukraine. the delegation arrived as in petersburg on saturday, $24.00 after told for the claims leader in keys, but put in is told the visitors that ukraine is responsible for the continuation of

the conflict from moscow. caution reports. this is where the delegates from 7 african countries on vanes that initiative to end the war and ukraine. 24 hours after meeting ukraine's president of all domains and skiing teeth, they travelled to st. petersburg, hoping to convince presidents document put in to accept their piece done. the particulars, i want to emphasize once again, we are open to a constructive dialogue with everyone who wants to establish peace on the principles of justice and taking into account the latrice of interest. as of the policies that africans, integration is offering a detailed initiative starting with the escalation and ending with negotiations. we're here to communicate a very clear message that we would like this will to be ended. we say so because this will is having a negative impact on the african continent and indeed

on many other countries around the world as a continent we are being negatively affected in terms of why economies. critics doubts whether the african initiative can work saying it lacks both the leverage and wait to push forward the solution or the see it as a step in the right direction. the not someone to do it or yeah, a real settlement on this issue can begin early if there's a clear winner in the ground for there's a deadlock early in this case. can we talk about a 3rd party? and here the african initiative will have a huge cumulative effect hold the previous initiative. the chinese african under brazilian will come together after certain states that form the basis of a supplement to do that. then at 10 thought i expect it to continue to bring both sides to the table. it's very rare, that's african lee,

that's all for the mitigation to solve such and. busy they look twice for the water . ukraine is having a major impact on the continent, especially with the threats exposing different supplies. it's almost listed that even if the piece that doesn't go through, it's ideas could have a positive impact on the company. i'd be ashan, i just, you know, that's good. a start heading out, does it have we're gonna have an update on a school attacking uganda that's killed more than 40 people, many of some students. and bridging the gulf side, there may be as fodder in minnesota officially advisor randy and president abraham . right? you see to be at the color, we have something of a fine with a sandwich across europe. now clear skies into the central pos at long last, got

a few shots every towards the east and plenty of shelves towards the west. and they are big. they are fun very, some big heavy storms making their way through frogs pushing up across and leaving them well. see if i should push going into island as well. we all got to see a few showers standing down the ashes crickets as best and for the race. we've got some very heavy rain. this line, the storms that just around the eastern side, if you 195, when the beat has a frame in bulk area. as a result of that, that was a while i'm trying to push a little further east, which will say some very heavy showers possibility of some flooding. it's east composite grease. nothing across to was the kia and the shell was continue study for sunday, right? the way i closed the good part of the central little cross pushing up into england to move west of england as well as we go on to the close of sunday by monday, a similar piece of what to where the company is discussing. and at that stage, kind of just shows their cars, northern parts of the space isn't back into the western front. flood into central

areas once again, but a few sat with sadie, possible dest central parts of here, for those that's got to be fun and try, hey, be sure i was right across the west. the facing liliana, teens. the un fits the purpose was like many critics sites just pub solution doesn't get anywhere near enough done to the amount of money that is poured into its hard hitting interviews. you think look to their lives on washington enough for money to go on its own and built it's on a thought provoking on for centuries, people have been taken care of are. so i have every confidence that future generations will do it as well via the story on told to how does era the, the

the, the watching all just didn't remind them. i told stories this out your secretary and say time to be bring to this meeting. china is fine, i'm not assessing guy. and visioning is the 1st touch visit in 5 years. a meeting of february was postponed after a suspected chinese island flu over the us. thinking to jane are expected to discuss the taiwan as well as trade on the south china sea and a phone call last week she said the us should stop interfering in china's internal affairs. new 3 days, east fire has begun. it's done pictures real quick by the us. the saudi arabia follows the killing on saturday of 17 people in an air strike on the capital. the top 2 holes of opened a monday for a constitutional referendum is the 1st and the series oppose the menu to enable the transition military to civilian rule. but opponents and the proposals would give

the president too much power. the military seems to control and 2021 for more. and this we're going to be joined by nicholas high in the capital obama. coal, you're outside of pulling station there. how confident are people that their voice is going to be heard next? well i'm at this pulling station and the few people that i've spoken to are really excited to get their voices heard. i spoke to mister cc, who came at 8 o'clock this morning. let me show you how this voting is taking place . people come here, they look at the list, they find their names, and then they come inside this pulling station were inside a school that has thrown into pulling station. and they pick up 2 of these, the one that says we yes. and the other that says no and the take this in an envelope and are taken to the voting booths. right behind me.

cast their ballots inside here and get their finger printed just here. it's a hugely significant moment, formality until up until now have use the streets demonstrations to try to get their voices heard and know what they're finally going to get to have a say on how would they are governed with this new constitution? it's a important moment and significant because if it's a vote we're supposed to take place in march, but it's 30 years in the making. it's been 30 years that governments have try to change this constitution and have this referendum. and it seems that assuming going that the leader of the modern military june, has succeeded where previously elected presidents have failed in organizing this vote and organizing conversation around this referendum the pulling station where

you're talking to us from seems very well organized, but this vote of course is taking place across the vast stretches of knowledge. what are the difficulties and challenges of holding this vote? that's right rep. there's a 1000000 molly ins. they're expected to vote today, but many of them will not be able to cast their ballots because there are large swath of land, the north end of the center of the country that are in the hands of arms groups linked to al qaeda. and i. so add to that there are those arm groups to, to our groups who disagree with this referendum. so we know that in the northern town of keep out, there is no vote taking place in tim book to there's been threats made by our groups and that they would attack pulling stations. so there is an element of fear, but here in but my go, there is an element of defiance. and in the face of this year where i sense, but molly and really wants to get their voices heard and really want to push

forward in distress that referendum. and this change and constitution, the reason being is that many millions feel that the rules, the way that volumes are gover, a concrete conflict. and they believe that changing this text will be a step towards peace and, or return towards democratic rule and are constitutional order. so i see me going to says that once this referendum goes through, is people vote yes. then in february 2024, there will be a presidential election and they'll be a return to civilian rule under a new constitution that would give greater power to the president, but also greater autonomy to the regions. and that would pay the way for this a piece of court that was signed in 2015 between the armed groups and the government and bring back some elements of sovereignty for molly. and this is what

this vote is all about. it's about trying to create legitimacy and sovereignty from all the ones that have felt torn with the violence in a country that's been under attack for almost 10 years. rob nick, thank you very much. obviously is the vote cavities on over the next few hours. we're going to be checking in with you to see how things are going certainly in biological, but elsewhere. but for now, nicholas hoc in bunco. thank you very much. indeed, as to whether you are in the secretary general has condemned the awesome and gun attack on a school in western uganda, at least 41 people, most of the students were killed when the schools dormitory was set on fire in important way in the congress. these border, others were shot or hacked to death. and you've got an army is hunting fighters from the allied democratic forces who were being blamed for the attack. catherine, sorry reports. apollo black house had left the boat, a town of pondering in darkness. an on demand, a talked student said they was sleeping, went online to democratic forces,

forced their way into hot stells store food from a store and burned a dormitory. some of the students will have to, to desk with marcia to use and boxes. others were killed when the rebels designated upon some survive by hiding under the bodies of the dead fellow students. what's the trouble of getting ready to sleep? when we heard people shouting, we saw a man wearing down at green clothes with guns, axes, and machetes. they wanted us to open the too much, we do, then they started shooting. they also went to the goats hospitals. you've gunned on policies opposite the rebels who are believed to have fled into the room, got national talk in eastern democratic republic of congo. adf is based in benny territory in norfolk, you will province that both as b. r. campbell, and west and uganda. the monday to kayla,

send me that of what we have sent helicopters to look for the rebels and bring back the children who have been abducted. the group had its roots in weston, uganda, in 19 nineties, where it was fighting for more rights for muslims. it was pushed out of the country by the military, changed its name and has been in benny for more than 20 years. and recently pledge allegiance to i, so the uganda government went back home with this partners, have a is top is what they call locations to job, which is emily to joint meetings. you ok, so i guess the idea of i'm in the past few months we have seen a manual onslaught by all patients who don't know why the car by the, i guess the idea of when they are and that these kind of plays out. they didn't start to start attracting civilians. when most of the talks have been on, kimberly sewing you've done that has seen an increase in adf activity in reason is

that included a suicide bomb, a talk in a business district, all the capital compiler 2 years ago that killed 3 people and injured others, attacks such as those have prompted both governments in uganda, n d r c. to do more to present, i repeat. after you saw you all to 0 runs, president obama rice has been officially invited to visit saudi arabia in the latest sign of improving relations between the gulf. rivals, society, father, minister, prince 5400. are followed. may the invitation during the 1st high level visit to, to find and 7 years side is, are planning to reopen their embassy. uranium capital radians reopen. fair embassy . re add earlier this month. kind of remind level that is a former us diplomats and she says that our security implications associated with the changing relationship between around inside peer review. it certainly is good for saudi ready to be a good free ron and good for the region. is it good for the united states?

well, the agreement to china brokered back in march just a couple of months ago between iran in saudi arabia has the potential to completely transform the way that security operates in. because in the middle east, from a, from a, an architecture we might say, a security architecture that is right now, based in the us dominated military set of military alliances against certain countries. especially iran, what china has done with saudi arabia and with the ron, is open the door to a completely new security architecture that would be based on cooperative security, cooperative security with its main pillar being economic interaction and integration. that is completely against us policy. and the us approach to the middle east for decades. so is it good for the united states? i hope it all does work out. but in terms of how the policy makers,

as far as looking at it here in washington, they're, they're in a bit of shock. for people who have a food is getting harder to find on gangs or typing their grips and talks to end. the crisis have failed again. john home and reports that have been moved. civilians killed in heights even ukraine in the 1st months of the 2023 according to the united nations. well, food program, how for games that battling over much police in the street to the cap to pull the prints in the middle, the population, expand it, but as our lives in city slay. in epi center of the violence, a step of what we show they don't have doorstep. now she's worried about her doing so. so it would them look at all the peanut toes that my to and my ceiling. i ask for help, so my daughters can go to the school. i don't want them to be at the streets exposed to the criminals. they are goes sexual violence is royce, in height. the gangs use right to count and control the population and the domains

and the group is only tightening the united nations estimates the 80 percent the cap to is run by criminal groups. it's affecting access to food possible haitians now face a cute food and security. moving in somalia and they've done this done since the world food program 5 minutes. so is arrived and city. so the right on the tape indicates that this child is severely malnourished. i would say that people have been starved in quarter prints. it's definitely been the case here that i'm groups have been isolating parts of puerto french. they've been using speech tactics. and that's entirely unacceptable. in rural areas, what's going on is that the, these guys are fighting for farm land and they're fighting, fighting for the food sources that includes hate cheese bread, both people need affecting the food supply. even more merchant done the a p. s. was kidnapped on hawaii to market will put on. i play me the, my mom,

one of the children as they were going to kill us. they didn't give us do to watch at the days and they blindfolded us. it was so tight that it has a rise. the money that i board is now worrying me. a lot of people who lend me money asked me now to pay them back. they took a loan at the bank for me. now i stay at home. i didn't know what to do. recently, heavy rains of also struck how you to tending thousands out the homes are fresh blow to a country already suffering john home and i'll just say the passengers and crew helping rescued from the burning ferry in the philippines. a 121 people, but on board and the central problem is a bowl. the coast guard was allotted. 31 people died in a similar fire 3 months ago. and is it is like this. a common be often because the vessels are getting older, all the overcrowded, the.
