7:04 am
people died. and that number is expected to rise as cruise search for missing people to the governor of hawaii. says he will protect the land owners from being victimized by opportunistic bias. when now he starts to rebuild. nbc correspondent j grey has moved from behind. so what the governor has reassured so many about is that we're not going to let these corporation sloop in at, at a dire time for these families and by their land out from under them at a time when they desperately need that money. how well they're gonna make sure that they have a supplies and, and, and funds for these families as they now begin what's going to be a difficult recovery. but even more, so what the governor said point blank. is that any corporation, any company, any one who comes in and, and does that buys uh, this land out from under somebody who is desperate will face a zoning restrictions will face the highest taxes possible. and basically what he's
7:05 am
saying that he's going to use everything within his power in the government to make it so difficult for them to build or use that land. and so he hopes that that will be enough to scare people off of the idea of trying to take advantage of some of these people who have lost so much here. and so many have lost so much. it's a, it's a situation that's continuing to one full and, and you really get this sense when you're here in the area and talking to a lot of those who are struggling right now that they kind of begin to see the initial shock we're off the will and, and, and are beginning to understand that it's going to be a very difficult recovery that's not going to last, you know, weeks or months. but instead years, there is a lot of work to the defense chase from the west african block eco was constitutional order will be restored, initiated by all means available, say our encounter to discuss military interventions following the qu last month. so
7:06 am
stress, it is following the, making this, the pomp and ceremony for the 2 day meeting and the crow. but the credibility of west african regional book echo us is on the line defense chief some across the region are focused on a potential so cool. last result, the ministry solution, the gains to leaders in the, the, the, every to the, the articles of with the book. this would be ready to diplomatic efforts by numerous delegations, including echo with the african union. chad, the un, i'm the us, the bids to find a peaceful solution to the crisis. that's so fall, failed a, give me the 2 liters of the cooling, the jack a full and what they say is a transitional government. and not only are they still refusing to free,
7:07 am
detained democratically elected president, holland bar zoom. but they are now putting them on trial for treason, a move echo, as in many of the international community sites, belatedly contradicts the juices pledge to find a peaceful solution to the crisis. image across sanctions and the suspension of international humanitarian aid is beginning to bind. and it's the people, many of whom support the 2 who are suffering the most of the we flood in security to come here with hyatt some days i find food of the days. i don't find food some days i can walk and other days icons. so now let's say there is no unity among eco s member states on how best to respond. now you're getting across the region, particularly from the parliament, from the people. and even from some members that not every from get visited, which is the leading democratic states that the opposed to any use submitted to the 1st. so this is
7:08 am
a project that is no longer consumption. this unity amongst west african states, political opposition within them. the danger of potentially causing a wide regional war and the risk of giving all groups like al qaeda or lie. so the opportunity to take advantage and launch more attacks despite these dangerous, it seems that the west african defense chief of fall from taking the military option off the table. yet, charles ref without a 0 across a nicholas hawk has moved from the senegalese capital because on the public response to the possibility of military intervention in these yeah, we're in downtown to card it. just a few blocks away from here is a french military base that's been there since the independence of syndic. all those 350 french soldiers are here. they say to train the armies of the region to defend their country, but also took expense west africa as a whole. and in fact,
7:09 am
the heads of these are, these are all gathered. most of them are gathered in china on correct to talk and discuss a possible military intervention to return constitutional order. we need a chair where there has been a coup, but none of those discussions are found on the heavy lines of these newspapers because the opinion over a military intervention in this country is divided up and live here. there is no need to use going on. i have to stop shooting. people just need to talk window kind of plays with human beings. when we talk to each other, we understand each other. i don't, i don't care. and i was wondering if i welcome a possible military intervention and to share as long as it brings peace enough for ken general and, and then share and particular professor we are really worried and anxious about this crisis. it's not going well here. in senegal, we want to maintain stability. there was a military intervention from west african nations, was in 2017 and the gambia
7:10 am
a country a 100 times smaller than the chair. got let me see. we've got the need of them i need you is strategically more important than the can be an easy and has uranium which is a central for our countries and for the without which it plays also a significant role in the fight against terrorism. all this means that the spike, human poverty in the country with asia is abundance of natural resources makes it a key geo political country in the region after multi for keno saw. so now news here it seems one after the other democratically elected president are being toppled in military to now the west african bodies eco was, are now drumming the beat of war on the international scene. but at home, they're struggling. it seems to garner support nicholas hawk algae 0 the car the leaders of the united states, japan and south korea amazing at the us presidential retreat of camp david's. the summit is the 1st of its con,
7:11 am
between the 3 pallets and some of the service side. this may be a possible step towards the nature of style collaboration in the region. from mcbride reports from sol. a 3 like minded lead is forging close ties, as they see growing threats common to them. old us president joe biden wants to build on the mocked improvement team relations between japan and south korea since coming to office japanese prime minister fu me of casita and the south korean counterparts. you. and so if you have set a course to overcome traditional differences, so the bar is set low really to improve relations. and i think washington and wants to sort institutionalize try lateral cooperation. and once a joint statement, in which, due to countries commit themselves to enhance security cooperation. all 3 countries have been brought close by. the threats of north korea's continued weapons
7:12 am
development was high energy over in order to fundamentally go up north korea's nuclear missile threats. the republic of korea, united states and japan must closely cooperate over time since assets and shared data in real time. your draft from you, that of the 3 have taken part in joints military drills and didn't balked on intelligent sharing. raising alarms in north korea's only significant ally, china is watching this tri latrell meeting intensely suspecting the us and it's ne, asian allies of trying to restrain its growing power. at the time when say june's friendship is being equally sold by moscow, as it looks for any support, it is continuing war in ukraine. this was russian defense minister said go sure, go on a recent visit to north korea, which is allegedly supplying russia with munitions. followed by the 70th anniversary celebration of the ending of the korean rule. also attended by
7:13 am
a high profile delegation from china. of course it also goes the other direction, you know, the more the beijing moscow and, and john young cooperate with each other. the more that sol, washington into a gear we're going to cooperate with each other as well. the shifting power blocks of the asia pacific as neighbors seek security and advantage made increasing in security. rob mcbride, i'll just say era. so. well, daniel kingston is a lecture in international relations at troy university. he joins us from saul, thank you very much for being on l 20. uh, for some elizabeth here there has been suggested this summit could possibly be the 1st step towards the nato style collaboration in the region. how beneficial would that be for south korea or? well, i think both south korea and japan, a fundamental principle or pillar of their national security is the defense treaties with the us. so those alliances are fundamental. so i think this try
7:14 am
lateral meeting is taking place in the backdrop of, you know, the 3 states that a revisionist nap grievances, north korea, russia and china, military technology is changing and they're working to respond to the rising threats in the region. can you just give us a little bit of context about an aspect to this? because historically, this been tension between south korea and japan? can you help explain why and how big an obstacle that could be to ever come here? well, it has been an obstacle in the past, so japan, a governor and korea for 35 years in the early 20th century, under a harsh colonial regime. they were liberated with the defeat of japan and world war 2, which the anniversary of that was just earlier this week. so there had been a lot of grievance and resentment on the side of both careers. in fact, with a feeling that japan had not shown sufficient contrition and so forth for the
7:15 am
colonial period. so that's always been an obstacle in the past. but i think the increasing threats, the changing military technology that requires try try lateral cooperation across different domains of war fighting and so forth. it's the only way to balance against that threat. and so the incentives for cooperates are just too high and i think they will move forward for closer try lateral security cooperation. it's in the seems that way from what we thing from the summit. so i thought what sort of defense agreements will military cooperation are you expecting to hear from the summers a recording to the media reports and south korea? there are 2 documents that they've completed and that they will will release what is called the camp david principles, which is supposed to provide the guidelines in, in how the 3 sides can cooperate. and then the 2nd document will be the so called
7:16 am
spirit of camp david, which will be a vision of going forward and what the leaders think about how the met cooperate. and then there are reports about 3rd document potentially that they're working on. they haven't released any information about that, but there are some rumors about a possible try lateral nuclear consultation group in the us and in the south be a set up a bilateral one very recently, and they had their 1st meeting last month. so there's a possibility to try lateral new, their con, state of group. they will discuss the extended nuclear deterrence for the region. and we know that as soon as any military exercises or cooperation is announced, north korea is going to see that as a provocation. how much concern is there that this could really read, should attention a small little ratchet of $0.10 in north korea. of course, they don't like the military exercises, because military preparedness is a way to respond to in the north korean aggression. so exercise starts next week.
7:17 am
in fact, i think the beginning of it already started this week, but they'll be a, bilateral, a us, south korea and also a multinational uh contributors as well will be participating next week. it's an annual planned exercise. it's already been announced. but noticed that it will be very unhappy about it. we expect to hear the, the use or rhetoric. and there are also rooms that north grades preparing for a uh, another satellite launch and some other responses to that. but i'm certain certain with her rhetoric coming out can young with the exercise and say thank you so much for your time and you're inside. we really do appreciate it. it is daniel kingston lecture and international relations at troy university. and so thank you. my pleasure. it was still a head on al jazeera morning and sent it out aloud to thousands of migrants drowned in the atlantic when a boat kept sizes for in the village. many came from. plus,
7:18 am
i'm drilling a hole in the disused welsh slate mine and i'll tell you more about the length. some people will go to for the night sleep. oh, oh, the, let's get going with your weather update for the middle east and africa. nice to have you along this breeze off. these are mediterranean means temperatures will lower just a bit for places like a level you're now down to $42.00 on friday, still keeping that breeze off the golf for us here in doha. so it means another incredibly humid day on friday with a top temperature of $42.00 degrees. it is also human in southern buckets done with this breeze off the arabian sea for garage yet $32.00. this will feel closer to 40 and still some activity in the north of the country. temperatures are running on
7:19 am
the high side and ask about 42 degrees and temperatures will be going down for the turkish capital on korea 37 on friday, but over the course of the weekend, they will continue to fall. meantime for africa, we've got pretty strong winds around the red sea as well. so that's gonna lift the waves to about 2 meters high. and plenty of thunder read downforce for west africa, likely to see some flooding here. meantime, central africa is okay, some pretty big downpours around engineering on friday that extends right through the central african republic and the western side of d. r. congo. meantime, this stiff southerly wind will eventually make it into southern moves and beek. so my pluto goes from 31 down to 24 on saturday, on the board winning program 27 years and thoughtfully consignment is an extreme formalized solution. i think it's designed to break international,
