how much work can really get. we still have time to an ongoing. success. that subscribe for more news like this. the crisis in brazil is going from bad to worse and i'd like other countries the virus is killing many children. some doctors blame any extreme immune response to the virus multisystem inflammatory syndrome. critics point to government mismanagement for the 2nd highest cofa death toll in the world. doctors without borders calls it

a humanitarian catastrophe it says authorities refusal to adopt evidence based public health measures has sent far too many to an early grave. fairly oh gomez starts her day early she gets up at around 4 am i worried about having enough food for her 4 children to have breakfast. i wake up with the feeling of being in agony i jump out of bed in the 1st thing i do is thank god i'm alive i look at my children and think to myself today i'll bring home some food for them i leave the house early to fetch bread there are days when i can't manage to bring them anything but they run out of the night. lives in a for valor of around a 100000 people in sao paolo here and across brazil unemployment hit a record high last year this community association helps people living in

marginalized areas to find work. we had an 84 percent increase in demand for employment after the government's emergency aid ended the number of people seeking help tripled because so many people didn't have any support anymore and if . in december government aid of around $84.00 euros a month was cut making an already difficult situation for many much worse. the number of people living on less than 36 years more than doubled many families stopped cooking with gas and started using firewood 27000000 brazilians live in extreme poverty were not attacked daily has been researching the fatherless for 20 years. knowing how to pull the data shows that the poorer you are the higher the rates of infection. the more on the periphery the person finds

themselves in the higher the death rate from coronavirus. brazil has added 2000000 more people to the marginalised areas in the past year it's not ethical the brazilians have to choose between going hungry or getting the virus it's an ethical . choice. for adults live in the home of sylvia de hayes us she's a cook and the only one still to have a job but it's just one day a week she used to cook in other people's homes but they let her go for fear of infection. this pandemic is difficult it's going to leave all of us starving and that's apart from all the damage it does to your health look at this q we're all in the same boat. that. with a shortage of fact scenes and hospitals are overwhelmed it's hard to see a way forward for people in the lowest social groups who are trapped by both

poverty and disease so life's become even more of a struggle for many brazilians money nicholai is from doctors without borders just how catastrophic is the situation in brazil. yeah the situation is really fat and so on d.m.'s if teams are working we'll why in 70 countries we have supported. facilities in the response to kuwait and in the beginning it was difficult everywhere what we see now a year after that the situation is still very very catastrophic in brazil and our teams together with the stuff on the ground is overloaded with patients they don't have for instance the drugs to into bits to give them the right and stevia so we we have images where nurses are sitting on the ground next to people dying because they don't have the best they don't have an oxygen they don't have enough medicines to treat the people properly so it puts immense pressure on the who health care

system but especially on the stuff as well and people are dying the numbers that we have that's unprecedented let's just like her entries or some of those numbers might be as out of a population of 211000000 there are about 14000000 official cases close 266000 confirmed infections every day and to put it into perspective the death toll globally has passed 3000000 of the hof a 1000000 of those in the u.s. and brazil about 375000 why such a poor record. yeah well this is the right question if you put the numbers on the screen so this is exactly why we have taken the microphone to speak out about this because there's no court immune response we don't most this pandemic in the intensive care units you have to have actions in the population as we all know are in europe and elsewhere if we have to do things not only vaccinate but we have to

go measures like wearing masks keeping physical distance. work reduce nonessential mobility. do testing and contact tracing all these things are not done in accordance with in brazil and the health authorities are not behind this and it's scientific it's knowledge that we have constructed over the last year and it's not being implemented in news is brazil's leader at fault here in this case. well we we're not 20 and one individual it's the autoroute it's the federal government and it's the health authorities mo governments we work very well look level and the people there are overloaded as well they're crying out for help we need a plan we need a good plan that is implemented and we're not asking for very complicated issues it is common knowledge now does it you need a package of elements to implement. those to try to stop the transmission

look at the numbers you put on the screen every day the number of people that are getting infected in the health structures cannot go in a country as brazil because there is not one of the poorest countries in the world that has a very good system in place normally let's call it. what's your explanation then for cover killing so many young brazilians including babies. yeah we don't have a good explanation for that so we're also looking into this book together with with that with other scientists what exactly is it that makes it of course there are new forms of the virus in brazil as well so we have new modern mutants of the virus if you don't have a collective response that we're asking for they are we see the funeral there's a collapse or places to to bury people. it's horrible if you speak to brazilians everybody has has somebody that has died or are is is being interviewed but the i

did you really cannot get completely explain there are new mutants if you don't have a collective response you get the virus to us ability to create to escape the the system into some right but the new mutants do not just explain the situation if we compare it to southern africa for instance where we also have new mutants they have facts and a bit less people proportionally then in brazil but they are reducing their peak because they put other measures in place so they really tins don't explain the situation in brazil and we need a public health plan really briefly this multisystem inflammatory syndrome all m.i.a.'s which is being blamed for some of these. deaths amongst children is that what could be the main cause. yeah this is something of this is not for us to comment on it is doctors without borders this is very technical the right

research is have to look into this i would like to make any you know a hypothesis and estimations on it is it's dreadful the job children drive the disease one in brazil the whole population suffering all families are and where we are calling for is stop the disease in the communities by doing the right things and we know what we need to do let them live and my new life from doctors without borders what have you on the show today thank you. of the 2 outsides correspondent eric williams who has a viewer question about the european union's vaccination if it. why is the e.u. reacting behind in their ranks to vaccinate. this isn't really a science question but people here in europe have asked it so often in the last few months that that i wanted to talk about it for a minute 1st of all i think it's important to say that compared with

a lot of the rest of the world e.u. member states aren't lagging behind at the moment when it's countries have on average injected over 20 doses per 100 people and are currently inoculating over 2000000 people a day the global vaccination campaign has certainly certainly chugged along faster in some places notably israel and the u.s. and the u.k. but even so in many many other places the numbers of vaccinated are growing at a much slower pace still there's no question the e.u. stumbled pretty badly out of the blocks and it's vaccine campaign and that mistakes were made that will cost a lot of european lives critics say $1.00 of the biggest is what at the time last summer was viewed as a strength which is that the e.u.

negotiating as a bloc drove hard bargains with manufacturers but then neglected to get the iron clad agreements on delivery and the result was that in the 1st quarter of 2021 only a little over half of the contract of doses were delivered the e m a has also been slower to authorize some back scenes than its counterparts elsewhere and and vaccine distribution. it has proven problematic in different ways both at the e.u. level and in individual member states but there are hopes that the block is now turning a corner of sorts and and many leaders say they still expect to meet the goal of vaccinating 70 percent of the adults in europe by the summer.

finally this could win over some back saying skeptics joints for jeb's new york recently legalized marijuana so long time activist donna bill set up a booth in union square handing out plants to anyone who showed their coated 1000 bats nation cut undertook a giveaway ended with a smoking. ice to finish on the high point thanks for watching. into the conflict zone with 2 sebastian. libya has a new government of national unity which promises free elections by the end of this year from the roadblocks it faces are admits his militia groups still hold power throughout the country my guest this week is coming by libya's ambassador to the u.n. in geneva how hoover's new government succeed. conflicts are the folks. on the verge of. finally learning to read 60.

new adventures again 360 to. explore an aging world heritage sites. doubling gold heritage 360. now. there is more freedom of speech today in the view that ever was and the history of look at its unique human treatment its barbarity is the bye we have to give the government change libya has a new government of national unity which promises free elections by the end of this year but the roadblocks it faces are immense armed militia groups still hold power throughout the country they still kill and kidnap with impunity my guest this week is tommy the bio libya's ambassador to the u.n. in geneva where he joins me how will this new government succeed where all the others have failed.

coming by you welcome to conflict zone thank you thank you very inviting 3 days after your new government of national unity was sworn in that was a shocking reminder of how little unity there is in your country up to 15 bodies were found handcuffed and dumped on a cement factory in the eastern city of benghazi while life remains so cheap and murderous enjoy almost total impunity in your country there's not been much to celebrate with this new government is there well that's not necessarily accurate because we don't 1st of all we don't know when this crime took place secondly as you know transition period things tend to be. take a little time to come to more stable and far. that's why you're not suggesting to

me that there are daily killings and discoveries of mass graves if these killings go on this government will fail like all the others won't it that's the point absolutely and therefore it's extremely important for the international community the united nations and other mechanisms of the international organizations to come together and help of current governments in every way possible better facts here in geneva if you checked into this you would know that we have passed a resolution at the 43rd session of the human rights council calling for a mechanism of accountability on for the ability to hold this impunity of crimes committed to the human rights violations committed and so we are seeking the help of the international community the united nations and other various organizations to step in and help us be able to put into unity at a stop when you have so much interest in doing that in the past with previous

governments have you. this was just the latest of many must killings which i was talking about by the dozens of militia groups that fight daily for control of your country and unless your government never mind the international community but unless your government comes to grips with these groups the new government is going to be just as powerless as all the others isn't it well again we have to give the government a chance for the keep in mind that the government has not even been in office for 30 days just gets and to there's a lot of work. ahead there's a order of tasks that each gets an air of including security and stability also keeping in mind that the role of the international community is extremely important or a ship that has some part time with the international community through the united nations is extremely important for the security and stability in libya and the success of any governments so it is important for the international community to do its part let's not forget that we just came out of

a proxy war. yes i mean you can turn it over to the international community as much as you like but it's got to be done on the ground and this is a government and it's a weak government and it's going to be very difficult for it to gain control of those armed groups that have been allowed to capture so much of your state over previous years certainly and it doesn't look from what abdul hamid has said your interim prime minister that he has very much of a strong commitment to either justice or poor accountability does it well here you seem to be judging the government before it even has a chance to be able to do it in terms of it by what it said or what it hasn't set of laws was judged by what has taken place in the few weeks that it has been asked let's look at every efforts that have already been done to fight institutions let's look at the efforts that have been done into stabilizing the security situation

through the joint military commission which lets it might again they ended a war in the last just a few months ago we would not be chopping. it's a cease fire and it's a shaky cease fire so it's a bit premature to talk about the end of the war isn't it. it's not a solid cease fire agree it is nonetheless it's those cease fire stop hostilities and there is a chance for peace today so let's embark on supporting this chance for peace. we've seen that there are there are 2 major advantages in the government for the armed militia groups firstly he's weak and secondly for the time being he has the keys to the safe so it's in their interest to do business with him but for how long they want a chance to get their hands on money and i see that he's already promised local

government a flurry of construction projects in various regions as long as he continues buying off these groups they'll go along with him if he starts getting tough with them they'll get rid of him whether. well again indonesian you should pose these precious to the prime minister in know what his plans are but let's keep in mind that when we had a concert war countries that were involved supported some of these armed groups and in libya which caused much of the of the destruction in disarray that we had been in number 2 keeping in mind that we had been calling for a d.d.r. program a ceasar program keeping in mind day our immediate rb what videotape or think if we basically taking these young men out of these armed groups militias environments and here and in training lead to a more constructive and positive elements of society this is going to take a long time business is more short term this is really

a short term measure this is only a government that runs for 8 months that's that's not forget that's an interim government doesn't it absolutely so let's not hold the the government so accountable for resolving everything with a magic wand so we have to meet up unless we can hold it accountable for certain things and in particular for the very corruption it should be promising to fight because even before the vote there were documented attempts by the baber supporters to bribe the le gets to support him that's pretty outrageous behaviors and it well those those are allegations and that's not made by the un they're made by the un so they're not based on nothing of it well the un is the same is the same entity that supported the dialogue and hand supported the coming of the government in syria ourselves but they didn't support the debate or supporters who were trying to bribe delegates to vote for him did they know when support that that that well again

these are allegations and has not been proven of any sort than that nothing has been stated by the un to that effect but the un inquiry said the pm supporters offered bribes as. $200000.00 to induce people to vote for him u.n. report was quite specific it said at least 3 such bribes were offered although all of them were apparently turned down well again let's say as the u.n. about that and why they supported the outcomes of the of the dialogue and in having the paper government coming to them to ask let's keep in mind again it's a new government it's a very well representative of the entire libya it managed to break the entire country together this is the 1st time that we have one government one of the german recognised internationally and nationally and given the trust by a chore which has not been able to do so for previous governments the house of representatives that is correct as represented so we we are seeing some positive

steps in the right direction the bishes not rosie we have a lot of work we have a lot of things that we need to address it is not something that's going to happen overnight but we need to build on the positive blocks that we have measured and we've been able to accomplish so far you say that one of the worst aspects of these bribery allegations is that the baby was interim office described the claims as fake news when they clearly won't fake a tour and that doesn't say much for the levels of honesty or transparency that he says he's going to adhere to does it is his response to these allegations suggest that his government is going to be as dishonest as all the others have been doesn't it well i'll be happy to connect you with his spokesman and he can address these concerns from. mr the baby has reputation is pretty checkered isn't it he prospered mightily during the dictatorship of moammar gadhafi he ended up running the libyan investment and development holding company which itself was rumored to have been

involved in corruption and money laundering why should people trust him now especially at this critical. let's let's let's talk about libya here because you're focusing on an allegation that you have one particular individual who can address these allegations and sell the geishas of the company the company in particular that he. has that he has a libyan representatives the united nations let's talk about what positive things are been able to do let's talk about and the resolution that was passed there in the rights council count very out of dili for her rights violations and the mass graves and the crimes that have been noted and in libya let's talk about the resolution that has been passed or repatriation of illicit funds that are rightfully oma by the state of libya let's talk about the initiative that was ordered peace initiative that was supported here in geneva the letter to the

signing of the peace agreements and the cease fire in libya but a lot of positive things that we need to focus on and we need to build on the this is the direction the need to go for want to get a chance for the to have a chance and let's not forget things have perspective and this should be the benchmark one libya for is younger the country that it is it's come out of. has been an military dictatorship rule for over 4 decades then it had a revolutionary and vicious periods where meddling in foreign countries of the there's a libyan and willing to capture and state captured by the armed militia groups that were just against close to power and still are. in power now that you talk about passing resolutions passing resolutions doesn't change the fact that you have indicted war criminals promoted to powerful positions in your country haven't you

and they're still there and there are plenty of examples of them up there abdul ghani i'll kick they also known as guinea we're now head of a new entity called the stability support or 30 he reports directly to the presidency human rights groups have documented war crimes and serious rights violations by his forces for more than 10 years the european un reported these troops have previously opened far on civilians none of that prevented his appointment and is appointment is still in place how is your country can you tell me this how is your country to move forward when these people who are suspected of serious war crimes are in these enormous positions of responsibility. suspect you know i'm not here to be important to judge on these individuals i'm here to be able to unify the international community's decision of the libya situation and we need to arrest many issues some of which are the ones you

mentioned but we also have to rest and that some international scope the interventions in the interference of other countries into the affairs internal affairs of libya if we were combatants as far as i'm concerned my position you're geneva that is a major accomplishment yes we need to work on a lot of fronts but this is the problem we need to focus on and we need to work hard to unify the international positions. we've talked a little bit about accountability and justice amnesty international described in a report 2 months ago the justice system in libya as dysfunctional and ineffective judges and prosecutors said risk assassination and abduction for doing their jobs is not a fact then the virtually every check and balance every restraint on illegal power and criminal activity has now been removed in libya hasn't it how do you put all

that back together again. well it's a process it's a complicated process enterprise of our org recognize that we do know we have problems we do not with that we have major issues that we need to deal with but we need to help with that internship do that and how do we do that we do that by stopping vention and meddling into the internal affairs of libya we stop the the computer it's a violation of. the security council resolutions or the violations of arms embargo by many states some of these sanctions talking about. we do that by helping control the borders of libya and libya has been calling for for a long time the support of obama shares or it's with our neighbors as well and. our partners the european partners to come and help with you to do that through the you ben agreements we need we need to activate our arms things we can it's

a domino effect. business that miss the by this government is only designed to last until december the 24th that's the date when libyans are supposed to freely elect the next administration that's only 8 months away what chance does this week government have of organizing those free elections with the massive human rights abuses that are taking place in your country day after day well there are threats and hate and they recognize that and they recognize what their agenda is but it's a process it's building process it's a process we have to start somewhere we can see a realistic process or it isn't you know you have the u.n. special envoy for libya young telling the security council last month that his office continues to document a horrific catalogue of brutality in your country killings inforce disappearances sexual violence including rape attacks against activists and human rights defenders and hate crimes the international responsibility international community isn't

responsible for that. the meddling that you've talked about isn't responsible for that that's coming from people your own people inside your own country isn't it you think that sets the right conditions for a free and fair election in libya in just under 8 months time but again it's a building process we have to take measures steps in going forward in the right direction positive direction all these issues must be addressed the international community does have a role in this matter of fact as i stated earlier the international community and some of the countries that have metal into the internal there's a baby or are the primary cause for some of these things are you talking about we need to be able to make a start to that make sure that we give looking at chance to address its concerns its problems but we do know that we don't have is this going to take how long how long do you want to chance for well you are you have a government of national accord before that didn't do it it was

a government of appeasement you know if it prioritized. paying off the groups in appeasing the armed groups over justice that is this government going to make the same mistake the last one did let's let's be fair and let's get down to the conventions rather than what you just said could be said about countries who will be paying off our troops in libya who are causing much of these problems that you're talking about. we need to be able to address the issues as they are so let's let's let's control the situation where lives can handle the ringback process internally and then we can judge and hold accountable the government and what it can do and cannot do well i want to match the situation in the country to the prime minister's rhetoric if that's indeed possible the new prime minister is on record francis as a he wants to spread

a culture of freedom of opinion and expression how exactly will he do that when journalists have to work in constant fear in your country the rights group reporters without borders says for instance that the toll of abuses against journalists the media outlets by armed groups associated with successive libyan government has grown steadily we're talking murder we're talking abduction we're talking torture here you're focusing on the crimes that we recognise of crimes and we do understand that there are there to fight them the bigger ones then they're pretty important ones aren't that good of course they're part of that's why that is going through a transition that's why we need to get out of this 'd violence violence aids and be able to get into the restoration of a country institutions be able to set into a civilian democratic state and be able to give the human rights to the libyan people keeping in mind again if that's the benchmark the established early on of the conversation then this is

a new culture that we have to go into that we are not so well experienced about we do need the help to be able to accomplish that and the will is there the the goals and the objectives have been sat since september 17th 2011 and wanting to is to set up a democratic state that is based on freedoms that's based on justice that's based on the ability to prosper and do well and the current problems knows that there's a great words but how do you get there how do you get there. and you have these enormous roadblocks in your path i mean can't there you know it without a free press you don't have a basis for democracy you don't have a free press there's no law in libya guaranteeing the public's right of access to information is that what was the chances they'll ever be one in libya where you know once again there are more t.v. stations in the view today than there ever were before you know what are. the

people who are talking about wanting to sell of freedom of speech in libya now knowing that there is more freedom of speech today in libya that ever was in the history of libya they are really not doing even passes that reporters without borders says libya has reached it's a lowest ever position in the groups world press in that once 164 out of 180 countries that's worse than during the gadhafi era that's a huge step backwards isn't it. well again i don't know what if mission they're basing their their their reports on but we do do we do need to recognize that there's more of a chance to be able to set up a civil state set up on democratic values on freedoms and justice today than we ever had a possibility to be able to do so in the past history of libya and we need to be able to capitalize on that we need to be able to support that we need to be able to work on that and we recognize that the order is fall but there is the will and

there's a commitment to want to go down this path and we need to get the commitments by our libyans and others the international community through to support that effort even before libyans get to the december elections this government is committed to holding a referendum on a new constitution. again how you do inform the public without a free press is is up to you but what if you miss the deadlines what if you miss the deadline for this new constitution and the new elections it's pretty tight isn't it see stuck around gravel if you don't get that. it is it is very tight and you know the possibility of missing the deadline just as possible as a matter of fact she kind of nations has but has missed many deadlines in the past in the process of coming to this point so we do need to work for the commitment against their will is there and the efforts are underway keeping in mind the

process has already been. established with some other that last there's the july 1st that month to agreements on a constitutional basis to passing a legislation to ensuring elections law and the preparations for the high and thorough commission to do its work to allow for the 24th of december elections but there is also another very important deadline there's a deadline that we have already passed the international community has passed the united nations has passed the exit of off foreign fighters and mercenaries out of libya. that has yet to happen that is an extremely important because stability and security and again to your point is extremely important to be able to do these elections in a stable and secure environment was by we've heard a lot of ground rhetoric from the prime minister about libyans being one unit one heart that heart hasn't been much in evidence these last few years has

a look at the shocking way migrants have been treated in your country in the last 2 months hundreds of them have been intercepted trying to flee libya in small boats and head for europe do you know why they're so desperate to leave libya and you know what happens to them when they're brought back to libya these migrants many of them do you know that yes i do as a matter of fact some but let me correct you what you're saying is not accurate our number one these migrants when they left their towns and their villages from the various countries in africa they set their mind and going to the northern shores of the mediterranean they were not coming to libya libya's a transit country everybody knows that forcing or for the u.n. reports everybody knows that but also any action and yet in libya they continue to be systematically subject to arbitrary detention and torture in both official and unofficial places of detention you proud of that no not proud we do have problems

and the libyan government has recognized and continues to recognize the violations of the problems that we have with might because even government has been associated with these violations has been directly associated with these violations. it's in that meat let me just finish this point it's extremely important what you are referring to the constitutes a crimes or alleged crimes on a population of about 4000 migrants in detention centers or what's called a gathering and and departure facilities it's in the human if you have human watch treatment it's bob barassi is the. inhuman treatment we're talking about sexual violence abduction for ransom extortion forced labor unlawful killing it doesn't matter whether it's 4000 or 4000000 why why are you cheap what does it say about your people that you are treating migrants in this way that is not correct to

your formation is not fully accurate reporting half of that if a mission that has been out there let me also repeat to you as i was stating the the a legit crimes you're talking about which the libyan government has been dealing with and continues to work with and deal with with the various u.n. or it is a chanst is concerning some of the solutions where there's no more than $45000.00 at the most migrants that happened to be in these facilities because they're supposed to and the u.n. are ization also know that these are migrants that are supposed to be limited to another country the rest of it of the migrants that we have and we have about a 1000000 in libya live freely and safely among all libyans throughout libya all right. i mean by we've run out of time thank you thank you for making our point thank you very much for your time.
