10:18 pm
the united states upon our mind, columbia agreed to try and crack down on the smuggling rings that bring the migrants through the jungle. that's part of my sense that due to a lack of information sharing and have joint action, i'm part of the columbia. nothing gets happens to some migrants here, so i didn't understand how dangerous the trick was going to be. inborn others. i certainly, pretty soon as asians africans, people from one of these don't take this risk. some of us make it through an of then called is not enough to do it. so problem getting shots, everything in the general to, you know, certainly but clean conflict in the dream of a better life, remain irresistible for many migrants, ready to risk it all in a crisis that continues to grow. allison the bit, i just need a panama, a hostile, a head here on, on to 0. 74 people including adults and children die and a fire to chronic building and johannesburg nose intended for rest. searching for

10:25 pm
definitely. we were going to see it, right. so the b m, the coalition that she's presenting kids, it's food on the wide front. i guess you translate to as a holding a press conference, but we're just now hearing that she's going to be absent from that. she's in a meeting right now with the pre policy. one of the members of this coalition does tell you a little bit about how this process is going. if the opposition choosing the candidate, it's been, some people are saying a little bit box to should have been agreed on sundays to move, i would say. and it suddenly bit accelerates without a final thought. but so just to kind of is nonetheless, will be the kinds of, at the end of the day, a little bit about her as you would say. so this is a candidate right now is a senate says she's not in for being plain speaking. she's not on the surface, someone's being at paul. indigenous. she has that background, she said as go choose to sell jelly on the street. and since then she graduated from having to tech companies before she went into politics. she's also someone that's got a sense of humor. she addressed as a joy and i run
10:26 pm
a storage racks and then sort of paraded around the floor of the senate to protest against or an election were full. that she said was out. they said, so this is someone that has the popular thoughts and it was what really the opposition in mexico needed. it's been seen as a lead says they've been seen as corrupt riddle with scandal in the past. with good reason. these policies have been in power and thoughtful type of when they've been in a day when they've been empowered, mexico. so it's hard now that you'll be able to reach, bring sorts of a new energy, move genuine energy, someone else to people. and john, whichever assigned ends up winning, it seems likely that we may see mexico's fast female president. yep, that's definitely a possibility. so the rulings the governing policy. morrenda again, that holds the wrong primaries. next, the as in cloudy assigns, i was the mer refresh the city before f site in those primaries. so that could be
10:27 pm
who sorts of 2 guys who run against in the presidential elections the next. the seconds we go to wall, it's a guy, but he's going to face a real up to back to wherever the miranda policy kind of is that policy at the moment, obviously it has the president under his manual, nope, is open the door. he's very. busy he left and the sort of the leading lie of the policy, but it suicide got control of the senate control, the congress control of the majority of government ships in the country. so it's a real political machine right now and starts to go visit the presenting policies are really often in the past, have been a long it has impacts is assigned to the fact that they cool this big press conference and she's not even going to be here she's going to be in a meeting with one of them just to see how this will plays out. very interesting. yeah. for makes good. john holman, there for us in the capitol. thanks. i ceremonies has been house worldwide for the
