a tearing through communities both to a man hunting deal complied. westbank come to to his release, killed into the palestinian town of hawaii, the. and i'm to see a newman live in key to ecuador, west fears of political violence loom over sundays, snap, the general election. the book. and we begin in this where the military ruler has proposed a 3 year transition to the power of the west. african lead has made another attempt at the plain but seem to reverse the to the statements by the general abdul, by the account, johnny follow talks with a delegation from west africa's main regional blog. echo us johnny won't against an attack on the shaft and announced a period of national dialogue for 30 days. the delegation will submit the tries to post president. it's the 1st time haven't bouncing. has been seen in public since
2:02 am
last month. been a treat takeover. so really to place a neither the national council for the safe guard of the homeland, nor the people of new jersey war and remain open to dialogue. but let us be clear, if an attack were to buttons are taken against us, but it will not be the walk in the park. some people seem to think g r i are you from here that are emission is not to confiscate power. i also reaffirm our readiness to engage in any dialogue as long as it takes into account the orientations desired by the proud and resilient people of new year. meanwhile, the hunter is continuing to evaluate the poles of the capital of the school for a bus liberalization in the face of the threats of military action button, a cost nicholas huck. how's the story? answering the joint is called to mobilize. tens of thousands of volunteers gathered outside of new year's nationalist take him to join the armed forces. so the agenda,
2:03 am
this is a show popular support for last month's coo, inactive defiance and the face of the threat of military reactions from the west african body eco box, which wants to reinstate the deposed elected president buses. for said, you know, cool, when you go to the city, oh city we are at war against it was some particular we're showing through this mobilization that this will will not be a war against these use soldiers. this will will be between the people of news. yeah. and it was so for them to engineers use territory, they will have to go through ok, so keep us. but it was delegation led by niger risk for military head of state adults. allow me a buck are met with a june tiny on me, a last ditch diplomatic effort to bring back constitutional order. the delegation also met with president by zoom. he's being held with little access to food or electricity. his health is reportedly deteriorating,
2:04 am
their intake use him of treason for acting in the interest of a foreign state, alluding to france, the former colonial power, the tempe that they need many panama, the will to act militarily, is to stop what could be seen as a contagion of cruise, there's been cruise in guinea burkina faso and molly countries would carry the echo last mandate like send a goal and ivory coast wants to stop this. but these states are seen as to close to france. the former colonial power for part of the population echo was seen as the armed branch of the former colonial power. the gentle leaders in neighbouring molly in burkina faso have sent their military plains in solidarity to new shares, coordinator general gianni. and his supporters seemed to be determined to cling onto power no matter the consequences. nicholas hooked alger 0 basketball this fall, but because i could join us though, from the senegalese capital dot com. nicholas said the general, well, johnny is in charge very clear about the way forward. come. what may to
2:05 am
well, you know, next is obvious. he's what he announced, which is this, this national dialogue, you know, uniting both members of the opposition in civil society and this roadmap for him to stay on to power for the next 3 years. what's interesting in this address that he made to the nation, he wasn't just talking to the people of new share who is trying to unite and also members of the military, many of whom don't agree with the position that he's taking, but are too scared to voice it, he's actually also trying to, to, to address those that have threatened military intervention. there was a quote one moment where you said it'd be tragic to be fighting against though is that we fought together with alluding to the numerous armies of the region from set a goal. i re coast h area that have fox army norm with the army of new jersey against arm groups linked to al qaeda in iceland. that's really a key component. need to remember,
2:06 am
this is a country that's a struggling to contain attacks from arm groups. now under present, but assume there's been a decrease of number of attacks and he's been successful in containing them, but still the threat is quite high. the issue here that he addressed in his, in his speech was really the issue of democracy. the lack of trust that there is between part of the population with democratically elected a president. in this case, mohammed buzz him. no, indeed. that's why i suppose you have elections because the threats from a cou us, of an attack run power low with that diplomatic flurry of tools. so, i mean, how has, or how important has that delegation of that costs be. and at least meeting the deposed president to be able to plants plan the way forward as well it's, it's a, it's a small success given that has been days and weeks of deadlock. remember the last
2:07 am
delegation that, that went into an easier just to weeks ago, didn't make it through the airport to general gianni refused to meet them. they weren't able to meet by zoom this time around. it seems that that they put that effort by eco us to use both the carrot and the stick, big mistake being the threat of military intervention. the current being diplomacy seems to have worked in effect the delegation led by a former and nigerian head of the military. i managed to meet mommy by the same who has been kept under quite difficult circumstances. circumstances even remember he's been accused of high treason by general gianni. and in fact, if he is convicted that pays the way for him to be deposed and pays the way for chinese to cling onto power. but what's really important is how key and strategic needs year is much more than other countries in this a health just by its location. and,
2:08 am
and the fact that if it goes then the fear is that there could be a spread of cruise in the region. and then coast of the country, so they cut course the inductor. thanks very much. meanwhile, washington, which has a strong military presence, india, a sudden states new a boss of the to the capital gave me that spring and the so william and see sometimes the us invest the 2 new share. he's also a senior fellow out to university checks and school of global affairs. enjoys us life from chevrolet in maryland. augusta, thanks for joining us on the program. i just want to expand that once i asked our correspondent nick hack, which was how important has the delegation from eco s b and actually get in contact with the deposed president. and how report does that full? so you might say the diplomatic community and trying to understand what's going on . all right, well, thank you for having me. it wouldn't have been very important. had anything positive come out of that does it's my understanding is that the delegation from
2:09 am
echo was, was able to meet with president by them. however, they were only able to spend about 10 minutes with him. there were 2 members of the junta that stayed in the meeting, so there was not really liberty to speak. and i also understand that the conversation was restricted or what, but their main point was to find out how, how his health was and what his living conditions are. monday, my next question really needs really to a, another open set of questions. i mean the us now has sent a bunch of the kathleen fits given who was present to credentials full believe to the to lead is us that don't recognize the just the democratically elected government. she's that i'm quoting from the state department to support the us community. how difficult a job does she have because if you don't present your credentials, how can you either operate as a bus adult or even communicate in this case with the military regime? well, the united states government considers are the
2:10 am
a basset or den investor and she is there she has arrived. and that's already signaling that as the united states has said repeatedly, they want to use their good offices. they, they hope to have a peaceful resolution of this crisis. so she can be as affected if you mean and communicating with the, the regime as, as they decide to let her be. in other words, if they are really interested in serious dialogue with united states, that they're really interested in a peaceful resolution of this crisis. and they want somehow for the united states to help them get there. then kathleen get fits gibbons, the person they'll have to go through to talk to talk about that as we speak to a correspond to just a moment ago. he alluded to the found that there may be some relevance of the military. the didn't quite agree with what's happened over the past few weeks. we could pass expand that and say parts of the public as well in the chateau degree with what's happened on the ground. so while the general say that,
2:11 am
that going to be in charge for the next 3 years, what comes in your opinion for any opposition? voice to types of voice that to set and tell me what opposing them will perhaps in this moment in time, be accused of forward in fluid states forwarding fluids, which sort of seems to be the cover to riley and call up the baby by the generals. this hunter is throwing up everything it can possibly hear about because it's obviously not thinking very well, but um, and seeing if it will work. uh they have, profess to want uh to have free freedom of choice if they have, as you said, refreshed any of the pro, buzzing demonstrations. and my understanding is that there have been demonstrations all over the country or attempted demonstrations. um huh. they have the guns. uh we and i also have heard lots of reports about discontent within the military and you're seeing a lot of vulnerability in these year right now. since so many of the armed forces
2:12 am
had been pulled into were in the m a is and away from the outskirts of the other regions of the, of the country leading wide open. so there's this orientation, there's confusion and there i understand there's a lot of discord in the rank looking beyond the board as well. and regionally, i mean, it's all a major distraction, isn't it? from the fight to getting started selling al qaeda however it will of the regional capitals be that the i may be taken off the bowl of the regional and the beginning . that's good to also concern europe and the us there. i think that i think that everyone is looking everybody in the hell and even below this to help solve this a house looking at what's going on in the share in molly, you're already seeing outbreaks of violence and incursions, and there plus minis is leading molly? so that's leading communities, quite traumatized, and you are seeing more and more attacks with in the year proper. and you hadn't
2:13 am
really seen them as your correspondence said over the over this whole year. and the way that they were happening both in virginia also ended molly. so yes, the region is vulnerable, isis and a to i am and some other holger on the broan bodies are using this is their opportunity to expand their influence, or at least to expand their territory their, their presence over the vast territory. former bosses', that piece of williams, that joining us from chevrolet in maryland. thank you very much for your time. thank you. the sum 55000 residents in western canada of being forced to evacuate that homes. us to separate $15.00 inch closer. the mcdougal creek fine is just one of mold and 1000 that defies the raging at the moment. several buildings have been destroyed at west
2:14 am
colona and british columbia. and then all the other nice wildfire was buddy out of control around the capital of the northwest territories. the thousands of people have left yellowknife the walls i was expected to reach the city limits by sunday night firefighters are using ad time because of the helicopters to battle the out of control flames. meanwhile, british columbia was a state of emergency evacuation centers of being set up in canada and west colored h canada as west while finest season in multiple history. the situation is highly dynamic and the numbers are changing all the time. but as of now, we are currently hovering at about $30000.00 people and evacuation for border and an additional $36000.00 people on evacuation alert on the hawaiian island of bali search and recovery teams. all continuing the grim task of finding the remains of wild 5 victims crews and washington states in california. a using could of adults
2:15 am
to search for hundreds of people who are missing of the one size res. much of the historic town of the height of the remains of at least $114.00 people are being sounds a fall, and most of them have yet to be identified. an investigation is underway on what spunk the most lethal one finds in the us. in a for century big search area, devastating fire. i've not seen anything like this in my entire 30 years in the fire service and been just some pretty significant incidents of intensity. the population density. all those things combine southern california residents overpowering for what the us weather service calls catastrophic flooding. hurricane the hillary is rowing tools mixed because baja california peninsula in this hour, downgraded to
2:16 am
a category to store is expected to become a tropical storm, as it makes on full bringing heavy rain to the south west and us. the millions of ecuadorian solved, preparing to vote in sundays general election and at the shutter of violence and the assassination of a presidential candidates. the army has been deployed to deliver election materials to paulding stations. the winter sundays, faithful face and overwhelming public demand, full security locked in america. i totally see a name. it is something buying for us live in cheats. i hardly see. i mean, what benches all the authorities taking not to show that voters won't be a risk called the mounting violence as they come to the ballot. high the government has ordered $96000.00 for the lease and soldiers throughout the country to guard not only the upholding stations, but to all the areas around the folding stations, all over ecuador. but this does not guarantee that in the neighborhoods where they
2:17 am
live, there could not, there will not be more of the kind of violence that has been plaguing if with doors, especially the low income ecuador ends in the cities, like why a key and it's made out of that from also being at risk. and so we have also seen a number of hit and run attacks by gunman and the they, in the days leading up to this election. it's not clear whether or not it's linked to the infection. that was one just today, but it certainly doesn't help to make people feel very secure about going to the polls, which is something mandatory in this country. was it? why has it sort of equitable? it's going from being one of those sort of peacefully, a nice types countries compared to it sort of places, naples to one that is being described ready as sort of a narco states and fully get to advocate as well. it is quite extraordinary and it is a very complex set of issues that have led to this. but one of the things that is
2:18 am
a common denominator in countries that have experienced the same sort of thing. and an invasion by organized crime is that the criminal groups, especially the ones from abroad, are always looking for the point of least resistance. that means going to a country where they can operate with impunity and in ecuador, 1st of all, they find a country where corruption is rampant. a country where there's the borders with peru and columbia, which of the world's 2 largest producers go, gain are absolutely unguarded. you have ports like the winning y yeah. keys which is out on the pacific coast, which is a perfect place to send drugs out in banana crates and flower shipments are uh all over the world. and then you have, of course, a population that is unemployed or under employed at least 70 percent of the population in the case of this country, which means that there will be a large pool of foot soldiers for trip to organized crime. and then finally,
2:19 am
you have a country where the institutions, the demons, the democratic institutions are absolutely crumbling. and that of course, is why in this election, most echo doors will be thinking about security and violence as their main priority . when they go to vote. or the people's former mirror quoted to you today. radio broadcaster says he still traumatized the nothing the shipping company on the van in to fit me in my thoughts as we were leaving the tunnel i use and 5 people got out of another vehicle on to have to flip them in. they grab my daughter from the driver's seat. i tried to run in vain is, i mean was it bring them, you know, totally off to 30 minutes a letter out and said god, we have the wrong person. 4 they were exceptionally lucky and it was or to not being extortion and murder to become an epidemic. when presidential candidates
2:20 am
into congressional candidates, when murder this month, underscoring why the number one electro issue is violence, i'm just outside of the electoral afar. the headquarters here in key to my head of sunday's selections. you can see that security has been increased, but when you talk to ordinary equity orange, they tell you that they don't make them feel safe, that they're not part of the solution. but often part of the problem in ecuador is penitentiary and security forces are in lead with criminal gangs, and drug leaders, corruption and penetration of organized crime and to state institutions specially, security forces is undeniable. this man who didn't want to give his name says everyone knows that even the justice system is corrupted every day, more body to peer somewhere decapitated or dismembered, or hanging from the bridge. what has happened to this country? your god with violence isn't the only problem.
2:21 am
70 year old established somebody general sales dispense in the city center, but he has a lot of competition everywhere people are selling whatever they can to survive the year. no one will give you even a piece of bread. if you don't look for ways to buy a piece of bread, no one will give you a crumbs mounted unemployment. poverty and crime are connected 50 because obviously what the will be went blue for a month, 7 out of 10 people don't have form of luck. so how can we expect that a country living in acute poverty they won't be violent? that's impossible. there's little expectation that whoever is elected will be able to solve the crisis, which is why more of the doors than ever before are leading their country in search of the work and safety
2:22 am
doors will be able to choose between 8 presidential candidates, but incredibly, the latest polls show that a whopping 50 percent of people still haven't decided who to vote for and that certainly will make predicting the outcome of the selection. especially difficult. of course we following events with you, lisa, and even though lots of edits to america in keats, i thank you. are still head here all out. is there a russian missile hits the northern euclidian city of china? he's getting at least 7 people who will take home. the biggest prize in women's full, full account begins for sundays was cut fine. who between england and spain, the the, brought to you by visit, cut off a lot of ground to cover in this weather report. so let's get going with the
