8:20 am
how full some it should be? and i think our view is very clearly that we think it should be a very short form, a not for a very long period of time so that we can get this mandate done and hopefully help, you know, lower tensions in the region. so that's kind of our, our perspective, but it's still very much of work in progress. positive ukrainians have in order to evacuate the eastern city of across the russian army. it's only 10 kilometers from inside skirts across, cuz one of ukraine's main defensive strongholds and key logistics, helping the denette screeching because governments are lot of 1500 more civil society groups. president general ortega's intensified crackdowns on those accused of breaking the law following antique governments protest in 2018 john home and has more on the product on from mexico. sitting on monday, the nicaraguan government, out of the $1500.00 non governmental organizations. what it said is that

8:22 am
but also in terms of information on the situation, especially as independent media, like how cells are effectively banned from nicaragua at the moment and cannot any report from countries outside like here in mexico and it seems with announcements and decisions like this, the situation is no getting better. and because i with, with the government and president daniel take out already coming down more and the situation is getting worse. john home. and i would just say to mexico city us side talks to end the conflict and sedona still going on in switzerland. the delegation from the putnam, illiterate roberts support, forces is attending the discussions in geneva. but sedans army hasn't been present since talks began last week. that we are very concerned about ongoing attacks, also on very credible reports of abusive civilians. and we will continue to push the rabbit support forces to apply to accept and abide
