10:05 pm
information is, is it a pretty patchy as to what exactly is going on there for the time being. your heart is here in america, haven't put out a distressed school for international health, although not these on stand by. the government of turkey has put its disaster management agency on high alert, their cost price from important work in the recovery efforts for the february. they have a lot of important experiences. the international committee and federation of the red cross of red crescent. similarly on stand by, but they can't move until they're off to and they haven't been as americans trying for the moment to do this by themselves with their on policies. landon c assets put to work to try and reach these remote areas. we're not hearing the extent to which they are being successful as yet lots of impossible roads across a very, very large mountainous area. 8 to 10000000 people live across 6 provinces. effective by this. like, it may be some time yet before we have a clear picture of the scope and scale of this disaster or join

10:07 pm
but of course these are the initial i was, this happened the nighttime when most people were maybe sleeping that beds or thinking about that. and so it was daylight broke this morning. we really are already starting to see the same types of the quite on the phone right now. and the next 48 to 72 hours will be critical in terms of life saving, search and rescue efforts will be absolutely prioritized in power. lot of calls with making sure that those that did survive all taken care of in terms of the basic needs. so i think you'll see that nice age, a industry channel that will be able to support that will, uh, that will already be arriving across through the american go sometimes on the needs of internal agencies on the ground. but more or more as the needs start to unfold, i think we'll see quite and must is 8 assets also being required here. the,

10:12 pm
for our under developing countries move away from, from fossil fuels. of the this funds can actually help do that. there's suddenly a strong case for transfers of technology. i'm actually there's a very strong case for international consortiums of sanchez to work together to see what are the most cost effective ways of finding alternative sources of energy levels. prime minister has told the palestinian president that fighting between vaudeville factions and the on on how do we cap dozens of the palestinian cause. mccarthy says the estimation of volumes between the hosting and the and the most and use is a great risk. and 11 on the 2 sides had agreed to receive 5 at slight interrupted again on saturday for people have been killed. the father has moved from outside

10:14 pm
a struggle for power. last months in the previous about the violence of, you know, people were worried that it was, it would just be a question of when not if the classes will renew. because, you know, the core of this conflict has not been, has not been resolved. tens of thousands of people are now trapped in an urban battle ground. 5060000 palestinians, living in a densely populated camp where fighting is no street the street at close quarters. people are worried that some of them are trying to get out, but they haven't been able to make their way out of fighting has spread across the camp. so these people are worried and these people are poor. if they do not work today, they aren't able to put food on the table. so it's a dire situation that humanitarian catastrophe in the making. if no, a solution to this conflict is found. center for their algebra 0 on the outskirts of item hideaway to the head on knowledge is 0. still waiting some job of this

10:19 pm
let's bring an alessandra rom p. i see who was at the summit in kelly. and i understand, or you've been listening to what the leaders have been saying, is there any more information available of what the host president style will petros new drug policy could look like? is yes, the detail of that product policy have not been presented. yes, we expect this to be presented either later today or in. that's the coming days. but we understand that you're saying that that policy will focus on ending the criminalization of the farmers. the grow, the co kelly if the wow instead is increasing penalties on their leaders. under the chief of the big drug, matthews, that's here, but also we heard about we got the final or, or starting to get the information on the final statement coming out of this conference. and for more on that, i'm joined by a candidates welsh,
10:20 pm
the regional representative of the united nations office on drugs and crime. many thanks for being here with us. first of all, i would like to ask you, what do you think are the main takeaways of this call? i think it was an important opportunity for all the countries of the region to come together and it talked about this important issue when the declaration is released . we'll see more details, but it's clear that it will focus on how to ensure that there isn't such a penalized approach to fighting drugs in the region. so they spoke about protecting the account base, the knows about how to ensure that they can transit to the listed economy and have opportunities for the future. as well as the importance of fighting, organized crime that are driving narco trafficking in the region. one thing that all the countries that have been here seemed to agree on his that that were on drugs at least the way that it has been wage so far has failed. i mean, particularly at when you look at the consequences that it has and countries i'm
10:21 pm
producing countries in latin america. we heard from president pits are saying that that, that the consumer countries in the develop more or need to do more to fight the demand. and that, that with how to reduce, i also the offer for drugs or the needs to produce drugs. what do you make of that? that, do you think that that message will go down? well in those countries? i think the importance of biting demand of is bringing the prevention against the use of drugs and also the availability of effective treatments to drug addiction is something all countries agree on, particularly in this region. there's also the important incentive alternative development. so working with local communities where currently crops are being grown and were organized, crime is controlling these territories to give them better options to be able to provide a future for their family without the risk of narco trafficking in the, in the region. what do you think a common voice coming from last in america and the caribbean could do to try and
10:22 pm
change the the direct policies across the globe. drug policies are agreed to by all countries around the world. and i think there's a lot of value in having an effort of the countries in this region that had been so impacted by drug trafficking over years to come together and articulate that common voice. so i think this conference was a very important 1st step in that process, and then they intend to bring it forward at the international body such as the commission on narcotic drugs to then defy the international drug policy amongst all of the members. perfect many thanks, kansas you and so this is what we found out so far. and this the conference that as i guess was saying it will be the 1st step. but the idea is to create the roadmap for the future to continue working internationally to change the way the the, the world, the needs there ask for against the drug traffic. yeah. really looking forward to

10:27 pm
the system is full and who it's look for. chris was so in the head execution spies because he was black. you tell me anyone else thing in my car because that wasn't his i didn't, he was not a suspect of any crime can be and something needs to be in. so in the head that wouldn't happen to anyone else. so we know as a community his family let this happen because there is a wide context for all of this. because since 19911800 people have died in police custody or shortly after many of the young, black man and 91 serving police officer is ever being charged in relation to these tabs. chris compass finally say that these figures simply don't add up the bulk around to 0 london. as a selection goes of paper, the u. k. will have one less that of the universal declaration of human rights tattooed on them. as part of an international project is meant to celebrate landmark document and spotlights regents where human rights is

10:29 pm
a scratch. so oddly, it is about how commitment to helping young people and empowering them to know about the human rights. working for them with young people is kind of a specific passion of mine as the future and we need to support them. so the idea that i'm kind of infringing, that message on myself feel is really sly, important, and helpful. it is the biggest project of its kind for the past 11 years artist and found the sons of imbecile has towards $77.00 countries to raise awareness of a declaration and to meaning. we connect those taken pods. it is partially so funded, sometimes growing so donations. if i pay as much as you want the system go back to the projects so it can take place some pennies, but can't cover the cost. it's also a reminder of a message at the house of the document. we are carrying this declaration together
10:30 pm
