9:02 pm
and has more from key to a need. ecuador is unprecedented. political and security crisis, an unprecedented snap general election. a religious ceremony flanked by special forces served as the final campaign event. publicity on, sooty thought was replacing assassinated, anti corruption and crime candidates, but none to be sent, seal put for bush, because when the request of ecuador is now a knock of state, otherwise, how can we explain what's happening? we are a country that exports the largest amount of drugs abroad that also consumes as many drugs at home. what do you see if they me pick up the reading of the polls by diminishing margin as lawyer lisa gonzales from the left wing citizen revolution party. still led by exiled former president rafael quarter, that he was sentenced to 8 years and up sent you on corruption charges that he
9:03 pm
denies from abroad. he told ecuador and said the good days will be back under lisa gonzales was buys that i see a country on it's nice for going to start to put it back on it's feet so we can walk and then run in a year and a half. we're going to control security and the countries, the prisons and the borders. but the candidate who poses to use an iron fist against crime is 40 year old gentle peak, a kyra's magic new color in politics. the media, narrow economist and security impresario shows off his tattoos, from recent military missions. he for him to french, foreign legion in somalia, syria and ukraine, and was trained as a sniper topic last off comparisons to ramble, but tells out to xerox. he admires el salvador as controversial president night mckinley goes economic bodies, and i don't agree with everything he does. but if that's something that i admire about how solve it, those presidents, which we will implement in my government, is clarity and determination. read a new form of leadership with energy. urgency is determined to do what is necessary
9:04 pm
now to the door and have a lot of choices. the winner won't have a lot of time. according to the constitution, the new president can only stay in office long enough to finish the outgoing president's administration. in other words, about 18 months after that, there will have to be a new presidential election situation, many believe will increase in stability and govern ability. here in ecuador, to see a newman, i'll just hear, i clicked on alex is joining us not from key to clearly to say that security has become the focus of this election. what's happening with the voting was that the voting has been very strong with the way you can see there are a lot of people going past me. this is a school that has become a voting center. there's a lot of security. police and soldiers are in every single holding station throughout the country,
9:05 pm
and so far we haven't heard of any acts of violence. however, overnight a, the candidate a, a. so the doctor distance would be best said that he had received a death threat from the mexican drug cartel, had least school new generation. and that the message was so deep that trembled. that's because he has, he had said that if he wins, he would send to the army to guard the ports and the borders, but violence and, and, and lack of security in this country isn't the only issue that if the doors are going to be voting on and the selection, they also have to vote in to referendums, to key referendums to decide whether or not to prohibit any further exploitation of oil in the amazonian. yeah, so need park, and also mining here in the and the intro call region of people joining me to talk more about that is quite a few espinoza hardship. thank you for being with us. you are the representative, a spokesman for the campaign to stop oil exploitation in the yes, so new. why is that so important?
9:06 pm
hello, thank you so much for this space for these interviews. well, this is an iconic referendum worldwide. this is the 1st referendum to actually propose to keep own underground scientists have said that 2 thirds of oil fossil fuels need to be kept underground. so we can actually tackle climate change. and for the 1st time countries actually doing this, we bypass seem to compassion of system. so we can protect ourselves from climate change a quarter has suffered in the last months for because of climate change and floaties and also for for droughts. these are going to get worse, so this is a matter of self preservation. let me be the devil's advocate. those who want uh, the, the, the, if we're doing to now to vote know, they say that this country cannot afford, not kind of, for, to leave that oil underground that it needs the money. and that is, if this country doesn't exploited other countries, will do it themselves and make the money. what do you say to them? where there's 2 things that we need to actually understand?
9:07 pm
number one that we've seen and all these trucking country for the last 51 years when we use that is attracting oil. the problem is was that people were going to be lifted up from poverty. but this has not happened actually. nowadays, poverty has bryson and in the m, as in res region, where all the extraction happens is where people are the worst on focus and where the environment gets the more damaged. so i think we need to understand that these historical event where we have these, these promise, these false promise of, of wealth has not actually sure to equity. that number one and number 2, that it is impossible for the countries is specifically through to extract oil from these up from these yes, in the block. because there's simply not the technology so that it can extract these oil. and also because they are creating a national research right at the border. so it is technically impossible. so in many ways, depending on the outcome of this referendum,
9:08 pm
ecuador is sitting an example that was just a, somebody in the amazon needs amongst the amazon, in countries of which ecuador is one. and none of the presidents, except for one, agreed that they should leave the, the oil underground. what would ecuador have to live? what could you extract to what other ways of making money does this country have? is the oil exploration? an explanation is stopped. well, that's one of the main reasons why we shoot overboard yes. on these befriend them because these are the most by you the physical system on the planet. there's simply no other place on earth. it is, i'm on my way to buy a diversity from centers centering when one of the systems. and the reason why these plate is sold by a diverse is not only because of his geographical position, but also because the people that have the cdc for the thousands of years. and these people collect all the knowledge from the jungle nowadays over 70 percent of all the plans. that cute cancer come from the amazon base,
9:09 pm
but only 5 percent of the plans have in research. there's these, these, these human knowledge into yes and you reinforce that. we need to take advantage of us, miss pieces need to take advantage of that is one of the main reasons why we need to say yes, these are for him for the kids fitness. i thank you very much for sharing your thoughts with us. whether you'll have it, this is a very controversial issue, yet another controversial issues that will be decided in this extremely important election in which the ecuadorian. so we'll have to choose between 8 candidates for the presidency. it's still very, very unclear. which way this will go back to you and as the selection is going to be playing out over the next few hours, of course we're going to be coming back to you for updates on that. but for now let's see, and humans. thank you very much. indeed. a presidential run also is under way in guatemala voters are choosing between the progressive congressman donado out of otto and signed up to this former 1st lady and conservative candidate raffle. it was the following events. in guatemala city. anxiety is brewing over
9:10 pm
guatemala is national election. which county bank consent, guatemala city recent says she's trying to stay optimistic. i will check in to prove that whatever happens, i feel that we should take it in a positive way and extract something good from it. because there will always be something negative. scully's thoughts echo the minds of many guatemalans as the nation prepares to cast its vote. the lead up to the election between center left candidates with a man, what a bundle and former 1st lady. some victories has been marked by smear campaigns, allegations of fraud, and even concerns over the integrity of the democratic process of the upcoming national election. not only represents a critical test of guatemalan democracy. there's concerns over worsening crime, food security and climate change. but it's the question over how to jumpstart the nation's economy. that resonates most among voters. one of the greatest challenges
9:11 pm
guatemala is next president will face is creating prosperity in a deeply, an equal country. where over 60 percent of the population lives below the poverty line. i level it is okay, perfect is compounded by unemployment worse and which conditions and also the increasing price is between 20212022 the basic cost of living rooms by 12 percent. but salaries only increased by one. so these realities, generation, and immediate, and barely concerned among with them islands, i mean, they don't know what economists say, a lack of job opportunities makes guatemala, one of the countries with the highest emigration rates in latin america. with them i looked into what you're seeing, what the 80 percent of the economic, the active population disengaging for my labors. so therefore when population can find formerly employment, they typically have 2 options of working in the form of sector or migrating to the united states. just good on the federal fund or not. i meant to say begin issue. basically, the owner update goes coffee shop, says despite voter anxiety,
9:12 pm
there is hope the winter of sundays election will have the necessary qualities to stir the nation toward a brighter economic future basic and fertilizer. but they're, the people will have their see. what we're going to do is try to continue working in the best way, fulfilling our obligations to the extent we can. because the situation is also complex. much like the intricate part of brewing the perfect cup of coffee. addressing the many economic challenges facing the country will require a delicate balance of policy and strategy. but with the 0 guatemala city, i want to give you a closer look, a good amount of presidential candidates, but not the other follow is now the front runner is expected to secure over 60 percent of the vote is a congressman. the son of guatemala is 1st democratically elected, the president essential that spot. he is running on an empty corruption platform and he's facing off against sounds like the last she's
9:13 pm
a former 1st lady and conservative candidates. she's chase the president the presidency twice before and both times she's lost. a party is running on a campaign to bolster social programs to address properties throughout the country . i know raffles joining is not from guatemala city. what is the mood like ahead of the boat? they're good to be with you rob. the boat here is pretty good. i would say a, we're at a voting center in guatemala is historic center. it's starting to pick up after a kind of a slow morning. we just spoke a few minutes ago with an electoral observer who says that until now, there aren't any reports of any voting or ledger. it would regularities or any signs of, of a novelist sort of activity regarding the body itself, somewhere around $8000.00 different electoral observe. observers have been deployed throughout the country to ensure that this is going to all go very smoothly in the
9:14 pm
mood in terms of how people are freely how what people are saying. we do get a sense that there is this eager eagerness for the voter anxiety to just be over. this has been an election season that's been marred by plenty of controversy. the threat of a political crisis moving uh, ever since the 1st round of voting was over, we should know. one thing that's been raising our eyebrows this morning here in guatemala is an interview that was done this morning of reporter that was trying to catch up with the more conservative candidates. and that i thought i was asking her that if she were to lose the election, would she respect the results of, of, of, of the election? she failed to answer that question against. that's just one of the things that people are talking about here. but dent everything seems to be in order. people appear to be in a good mood. and if anything, i would say that the number of voters that we've seen at this point station today is starting to take up a little bit. we saw that di avalo is running on to corruption platform, told us is running i did on our platform to address poverty. but from what you were saying in your report,
9:15 pm
it's the economy. that is the biggest problem that the country is facing. and that is going to be not till the struggle for whoever gets in isn't. so that's certainly the case. you know, there's many challenges that the next president of guatemala is going to face from climate change to mount nutrition, to extreme poverty. it is the economy, it's the lack of opportunities. it is that poverty level that hovers at around 60 percent in um, in guatemala, that's very much at the forefront of people's minds here in the country to each one of these candidates as a complete, as has their own strategy as to how the plan to tackle these many different economic challenges. on the one hand you have assigned to that daughters of the party who's betting heavily on the near shouldering trend. united states relying less on manufacturing from china. this is something that we've seen in, in mexico that's already sort of benefiting from near shoring,
9:16 pm
and the creation of jobs and the manufacturing sector. this is something that's something that the risk is bidding heavily on says that that could work very well for guatemala giving, given this country's geographic proximity to the united states. on the other hand, you have of the center left candidate. but on that of the idea about the was betting heavily on fighting corruption, identifying the problem of corruption in guatemala is one of the main driving factors that's preventing economic growth that's preventing job creation in the country. but as you said, there in your introduction, rob it, when you're asking the question, and this is a sentiment that's shared by economists and political experts, here in guatemala as well jump. starting the economy is not something that's going to happen to overnight. and it, and it's not something that either one of these candidates is going to be able to, to possibly even achieve in the 4 hours. and is it 4 years that they are given in the presidency? so this is some, this is very particular case of needing a strategy for long term prosperity, the countries because there is,
9:17 pm
as far as we're able to tell from the economist that we've spoken to no short term solution to this problem. i know you're going to be covering things for us as those votes come in, but for our money right below in guatemala city. thank you very much. i, a tiny motor head on the news are including the political stand off in august on continues as a close advisor to focus on spa. i'm a prime amazon. amazon khan is arrested view and peacekeeping missions, speeds up its withdrawal from molly is a security situation, deteriorate, staff, and sports. the players who the adoption team, that's a glory in the man's world south has won his 1st trophy with his new club. the moscow says ukraine attacked for separate russian regions on sunday. then course 5 people were injured when a drone has a railway station, other area of attacks, but reported in our stuff a near moscow. the russian defense ministry says 12 jones with shawn done outside
9:18 pm
belgrade, near the ukrainian border. denmark is to donate 19 fighter jets to ukraine before it's ongoing war with russia finish probably minutes. and there's a frederickson said she hopes to deliver the 1st 6 of the 16th around the new year show. and i'm assuming this is one more step and strengthening ukraine's air defenses. we will use f, 16 jets to keep russian terrace away from ukrainian cities and villages mock and i have agreed on the number of f sixteens that will be provided to ukraine after our pilots and engineers have been trained as honorable thomas as the editor and chief of the swiss ministry review, and he explains how the supply about 165 digits will impact 2 trains war efforts. you can imagine that the situation is going to change in the coming weeks and coming months because russian air forces have become emboldened by the facts that's
9:19 pm
a less and less ukrainian aircraft. we're able to take to the air and intercept and fire miss miles at that. so without a sufficient number of airplanes, the ukrainian air force cannot maintain its size, the territorial. it's the air space integrity. we're going to see in the coming months, more ukrainian airplanes, and therefore this will probably push back the russian air force strength. these airplanes are multi role and because they are stitches with a very comprehensive electronic sweets and even the older generation of sixteens that you're talking about now has been modernized repeatedly. they are capable of air defense. they are capable of recognizance including electronic suppression,
9:20 pm
jamming missions, and of course, a striking capabilities, so air to ground capabilities as well. the rush as far as measurements of the moon and almost 50 years has ended in disappointment. it's lynette 25 spacecraft lost control and trash 12 trying to land. marshall space agency says across moved and then on predictable orbit. before colliding with the surface of the moon. a failed attempt is a blow to most of the emissions and the global race to reach the north side of in the space agencies as it's moving bound, spacecraft will land on wednesday is scheduled, attends. i am 3 is also aiming for the lunar subs pulled. the region is believed to hold large deposits of frozen water into a space agency. it says it successfully completed, unimportant operation ahead of the landing area. and thompson is a science journalist, and she says moscow's mission to the moon has great significance, other countries, space program. this was the 1st mission in 50 years for russia. it was
9:21 pm
also the 1st mission under the flag of just russia. because the last time they went to the moon, they were under the banner of the soviet union. so this was really a mission to prove themselves and say that they could, you know, handle interplanetary mission. and they were originally supposed to do this mission with the european space agency. but after they invaded the ukraine and everything sort of fell apart with partnerships around the world. so this was an opportunity to stay relevant in, you know, this versioning field of everyone wanting to go to the moon. china has a lander on the far side of the moon. the united states has been to the moon countless times and are planning missions to go back. but in terms of other countries, you know, access to space is more readily available than it's ever been in history. so now all of these countries are trying to do the impossible to do the great things of, of getting to the moon and they're realizing that it's more difficult than what
9:22 pm
they expected this year as military leaders proposing a 3 year transition to civilian rule in iceland by general on the monkey, on a father's tolts, with a delegation from the west african block eco was members of the delegation also managed as deposed. president mohammed by zoom was under house arrest and yummy, nominated race reports from a booster in neighboring nigeria. 3 weeks of to have the cool is yours, military is under pressure. the sanctions enforced by the regional block echoes of cut off imports of food, electricity, and medical supplies. and the leadership ease in type. it may not those who have imposed these cruel sanctions and threatened to kill thousands of new jerry and are hoping to divide and impose their will on our people. they think they can force us to accept what is deeply unacceptable because this country to our interest and to our cardinal value. they want to isolate our country at a time when our people mostly community and solidarity to better face terrorism and
9:23 pm
insecurity. with public 7 sellers to learn, paid on shortages are financial goods. the military risk losing its support base. for now though, it can count on these people in the capital thousands, riley, during such a day, volunteering to join the army to fight against any potential intervention by equis forces. to our moods you need, i guess that backdrop identification from echo is how talk to the coordinator general of drama and china. and then they also made president mohammed buzzle from the june to accusers of treason for acting in the interest of a forwarding state. i referenced across the form of colonial power we met and we heard from him what was done to him. he told us about the problems he's facing, that we will take to the lead is sent us here. the visit is seen as a potential breakthrough as the june to has agreed to dialogue and announced that
9:24 pm
the transition to democracy with molly guinea and book uniforms are failing to deliver on their transition promises. it's not clear how it course will respond, sustain fee, that doesn't even mean to get them off the will to act militarily, is to stop what could be seen as a contagion of cuz there's been cues and guinea burkina faso and molig. countries who carry the ecos monday, extend the call and the ivory coast wants to stop this. but these dates are seen as being too close to france. the former colonial power in nigeria, people are divided over some portfolio regionally, intervention, the impact of sanctions. i also felt the businesses estimate the losing hundreds of millions of dollars a month says the board is what is your what closed the coordinate his primary concern is to have those sanctions lifted. something that's only likely to happen if that course accepts john chinese propose timeline for transition to democratic rule i. degrees, i just need a couple job. well,
9:25 pm
here's how this has been playing out on july the 26th. the military seasons by attains presidents by the regional leaders and the united nations immediately condemn the takeover on july. the 30th regional block echo was ones the crew leaders that they've got one week to reinstate the president or face potential military action. a few days later, august, the 6th, nearly 30000 support is that the crew hold a rally in the capitol. the army that demonstration coincides with the deadline set by echo was for both of them to be reinstated. on august, the 8th is going to a point in my home on mean is zane as prime minister. and on the same day aca was imposes most sanctions on the military. ever having to hire you abraham is a senior. so hell on the less of the international crisis group needs joining us now from dock. thank you very much. indeed for being with us on august the, the president by zoom, had been democratically elected. why do you think the crew leaders are intent on waiting 3 years before going back to a democratically elected government?
9:26 pm
and i think the, what we saw in the analysis mississippi's a strategy that the whole has gone up to the, from the beginning. of course, just to of faces the national community, it was actually a home page. the 1st one watching it stone i munition of the prime minister's 2nd, the cognitive numbers. 3rd, that all start ident died 3 years and before i know them and also one of the one of the agenda would it be to, to organize that my in the next a down by the so i think this is, this is a really resolve what we saw in my book, you know, household, which is the military, you know, plan to not reach or a power to so do this. i'm going to be the organize, a continued to come backward uh, organize a national dialogue to do. do use the terms for a new constitution, then the back,
9:27 pm
the country interest, the dns. i think this is what we're seeing now in, in new jersey. dan osmond by the time of yesterday, and i'm just going to, i came off to negotiations with the delegation from echo was and of course echo was, has been coming under increasing pressure over its uh stripes to use military force if president presumed, was not reinstated to what extent does this 3 year deadline actually take pressure off? echo was and i think some of this is now up to the course of the bottom of using the parts of it. of course, besides, i think that that transition has defined the terms of this novel solutions. now if it was like steps that, that this is a transition i'm done by, you know, go ahead under the bullshit with the notice. what would be the control of this uh, transition. then we might see, you know, so what did you find to be coming to our office? and we'll see agents by your courses assist in the idea that they have to be to
9:28 pm
governments back just to be honest and don't want to use that for the don't know who then way i like the way some face. um, i mean, it's not a russian by him or somebody in new or used to be taught and used to talking about the community does as a group. but is there anybody within that group that we should be watching to see how those negotiations are going? if, as there is an individual that's going to be acting on point for those talks, it's so difficult to say that are a lot of more liable fractures within the home. but um i, i wouldn't so venture into that a form out as for now. and then also, and i'm going to the dns on the coordination of the unit to be to themselves my, we really shouldn't so too much so that way it's into, into those lines. so factors that are worried about me we have seen as we were mentioning before, the splits that have been amongst echo was members in the run up to in the negotiations. and it was regards to this, whatever the outcome of happens. and these are what kind of state do you think echo
9:29 pm
was, is going to be enough to this. and i see that it of course can, can, can, uh, you know, um save, you just go to the village and despite or the crack of this. so my situation but is but put it into the, into a very top, my corner. i think that it's b r to what are your initial willingness? i'm going to work with the generous. i'm a towards one of the nice and you know, i transition them the shots and, and that will just focus on all the time and back to kevin was a new ticket prostitution, son, organize a new criticism, actions. i think that way, in fact it is going to be easy. otherwise i think come it's b r to go with the freight ultimately conservation that my and i'm really bucks not what do i need for the entire vision and that would be bad for the individual to cause it's really interesting to get your thoughts on this ever him,
9:30 pm
you're hiring able to him as always. thank you very much indeed for being with us and i'll just here i appreciate that. thank you. on peacekeeping mission and molly is speeding up. it's withdrawal is the security situation worsens. the management government pushed the un mission to leave the country before the end of the year. and model reports. the un peacekeepers in their in northern molly are rushing to pack their bags, dismantle equipment, and shut down their operation. some are from ivory coast others from bangladesh. their objective was to protect this dark city of tim book to from iso and all kinds of fighters, but they're being forced to leave before completing their mission. in june, molly's military lead government cold for the withdrawal of the un peacekeeping force known as mendoza saying, there was no peace for them to keep accusing the un, if in action to the face of attacks and blaming it for the deteriorating security situation. the head of the mission disagrees. let me show the manufacturer and i had left the on the mission did a very good job, of course is not perfect,
9:31 pm
but we worked with devotion, sincerity, and coverage. and we paid a high cost. 300 my colleagues have lost their lives and 700 were injured saving molly? so we feel we have done a lot of products, not enough says delete or a seem equally to he believes the country is better off without the international peacekeeping force. but with the help of russian mercenaries from the wagner group, human rights organizations accused molly and soldiers and russian fighters of war crimes, including rape, torture, and the killing of civilians. they're meant to protect number yeah, a lot of mean money in the body and state and the body. and we will try to take over those you in positions which appears to make sense. but given the context and the soul and piece process, the presence may increase existing tension, also, as the un forces pulling out all kinds of fighters attack the compound and bear injuring several peacekeepers. since there's been fierce fighting armed groups

. wrong call and him back earlier today, right before the arrest, he held a press conference, demanding the elections be held on time. now what on time means of course is very nebulous at the moment. that's a bit of a constitutional gray area. because once the government bows out the electric image in a box that has about 90 days to conduct elections, but under another part of the constitution, once a census has been published, that being the digital sense of the box on that was recently published, what impacts us population at 241000000. in that case, the limitations model occurred immediately and then elections must be held, in which case you might be looking at a delay of additional 3 to 4 months. so here's the rest of the day. it seems a very coincidental given the demands that you put on the current virginia in this press conference for yesterday. hm. what kind of impact do you think this is going to have on the back? a sense have you find yourself policies? certainly in the run up to those elections of course, i mean bucks something again, some political parties are hard to dismantle and particularly the one that was as
9:39 pm
popular as the bpi. and especially one that has the kind of public support. but the media did enjoy at one point, i mean in the last regina they did to them documents for you before the provinces and held the government in the center. but what they are going to face now, and especially with china, but i see the risk is a serious surprises of leadership. because the top view leadership, since the american, we have been dismantled within the p d. i need them to affecting the other parties and several members leaving politics altogether. i see what might happen to show them, but i see you are very savvy stephen smart politician. he's been following us or twice, as i've said once, with another energy, and even mentally popular in his own constituency. both a lot of political courtesy. that being said, the frank down on the b. b, i hasn't been very relentless and very inconsistent. so what will happen to me now, all the ways, anybody's guess, it really will come down to how well sounds good actually is really able to
9:40 pm
negotiate his position. and how serious the current political powerhouse embarks on is about continuing to track down a, b, b. i and shutting down all the sense what described to a view was around about what the popularity of the p t i is at the moment because obviously it has taken such a box spring and all the parties have as well. of course, particularly in the last few months, where is it standing with regard to the people of pakistan to be the very, very popular party, especially before the events of may, 9th, may, 9th, before spring, when i'm wrong, hung up, arrested for the 1st time, which liked the wide ranging protest of some of which also started a military installation which has become the point for the parties downfall. now the point is we look at how things are on the bully right now. the compared to get set up that has been brought in is perhaps to me, powerful the box on has never seen and visit principally because because of certain amendments that have been made in the national assembly, they are now having power to make your moment decisions. despite being in power for a very short period of time. secondly,
9:41 pm
wrong made media leadership being taken off the board. and thirdly, the release of the digital census, which requires a be dealing with the process and also pre, if this piece will bring any of the photos i would imagine with the public. and by this time is especially both, it's going to be quite doesn't franchise. and i would not be surprised, robert, this is going to turn out for the elections, which i would predict would be sometime around march of 2024 in the old time to start low, because those that would come up to support the p d. i would not necessarily have any bible candidates left to boulevard. obviously we're going to be covering the build up to those elections if they do happen whenever they happen, perhaps and march and 2024. we appreciate you being with us each on sort of again, thank you very much. indeed. thank you for a nearly 80 people have been killed after flash floods trigger lines lives in india is kind of late in the states. so i michelle, for dash,
