more than 30 people have been killed as a powerful typhoon. battery, the philippines, leaving massive destruction in its wake. and a collection of looted african ard, has a final showing at a museum in the german city of hamburg. the benign bronzes will soon be returning to nigeria. ah, a marion evans theme, it's good to have you with us. the army kron variant of the corona virus has much of europe on alert. across the continent, governments are introducing new restrictions as they brace for a 5th wave of infections. and in the u. k, london's mayor has responded to a huge surgeon cases by declaring 8 major incident. the measure is designed to help authorities coordinate their response to the virus. the city in crisis

mode, luminous being hit hard by the omi chron variant of the corona virus. it is already overtaken delta, as the dominant strain here, driving up infections, and forcing the may of london to react. what incredibly concerned by the huge surge in the on the kron variance of the last 24 hours. we've had the largest number of new cases. since they said pandemic began more than $26000.00 hostile emissions are going up. but also stop absences. i got up by massive level. so i've taken the fission in consultation with our panos to declare a major incident today. the measure was last taken in january and allows local government to work more closely with emergency services. it's not just a capital that's in crisis for several days now. the u. k. has witnessed record case numbers in response. the government has stepped up its vaccination campaign over 3000 locations across england. what turn into makeshift vaccination centers on

saturday the u case omicron search is prompted. regional health ministers in germany do cool and the government to impose tougher rules on travel from the u . k. but restricting international travel will slow the spread at best. the world health organization says omicron has already been detected in 89 countries. more and more are responding to the new threat novels. dutch prime minister mac wrote on saturday, announced locked on that will limit gatherings over christmas and close shops, restaurants, and cultural venues. chapa's rushed both em last minute perch this before the measures came into effect. looked down on none the w h o expects omicron to become dominant in the countries where it has taken hold. scientist won the surgeon, cases could further burden overstretch health systems and lead to staff shortages across many sectors. oh, on joining us now from brussels is did over your correspondent bad regard van to

get to see you. so what exactly do these new restrictions in the netherlands need for the dutch public? i mean, we've already seen very tight restrictions in place for a week. so what's changing the dividends will come to a grinding halt again beginning from tomorrow. so far the restrictions were only in place. so kicking in after 5 pm, but now everything is closing down, including schools and kindergartens. and you're only allowed to receive 2 people in your own home and over christmas, that's for people. but that makes of course, family reunions very difficult travel will be restricted. and so the dutch government is hoping to, to stem the or on the con, a virus. but this is very unlikely because everybody now says including the german health minister car, lot above that there is no way to stop this 5th wave. you can only delayed but not

stop it and a lot about talking about a massive wave. so it seems that also measures in germany and other countries are imminent. and already trevor restrictions are kicking in in france in porterville, in italy and denmark and other places. but there's also the opposite. austria, for example, just lifted. it's locked down, but it's having more restrictive measures for travelers. so there's no common approach in the european union. right. he mentioned these different levels of restrictions depending on which your country we're looking at. i mean, there's obviously makes travel very difficult. could we see perhaps a unified european union approach? is there any discussion of this? no, there will be no unified approach. there is a prep patchwork or for restrictions and rules already at the last summit just last thursday. the leaders of the european union failed to agree on more corporation,

although there are dire warnings on the table. already. the european center for disease control warned that this on the kron of reef can not be stopped. that hospitals will be overwhelmed by the cases are kick in and come in just a couple of days or weeks. but the leaders went home and then decided to look at their domestic front and do what they like. there is no common approach in europe so far as old leaders pledged that they want at least to keep supply change and chains and delivery open over the borders. all right, well what about vaccinations? i mean we keep hearing that getting boosters is critical. getting people to at least get their 1st and 2nd, vaccines are so important is the europe equipped to offer enough vaccinations to stave off? perhaps yet another wave the you commissioner brothers tells us there's enough

supply. there's enough vaccines, there is enough booster shots. and to get everybody a vaccinated or boosted in the coming weeks, maybe there are some shortages are late in february, march, but you can take care of that. and it's, it's very difficult because the e, c, d, c, the european center for disease control said it's too late already. who cannot hold the 5th raised by boosters or vaccination. you have to prepare otherwise. and that makes it very difficult for the countries to react accordingly. he w as band are eager to reporting for us from brussels. thank you so much. let's get a check. now some of the other stories making news, this, our thousands of people have protested in barcelona against a court ruling mandating that 25 percent of school lessons be taught in spanish. demonstrators say it will threaten the education system, which is help bring the local catalan catalan language back to public use. after

gillen. i had a panic attack. finally got that. mach booked reconstruction costs are estimated to run into hundreds of millions of dollars. but president rodrigo, to tattoo has warned that disaster relief funding has been depleted by the pandemic . ry was the 15th typhoon to hit the philippines and 2021. the disaster pro nation typically sees 20 each year cleanup efforts are already underway. but for tide filipinos, there's little end in sight scientist, walnut climate change is making storm stronger. a hamburg museum is displaying a trove of looted african artworks before handing them back to their rightful owners. the benign bronzes were stolen from present a nigeria by british troops at the end of the 19th century before being housed in various european museums. it is beautiful art with an ugly past one that germany's museums want to turn the page on. ah,

these artifacts are regarded a secret in their land of origin. many are looted art brought to europe during colonial times. now hamburg is showcasing its daily 200 but in bronzes one last time before returning them by come by these an object. these objects were taken by force, so it's only right that they should be returned now says on as a full collection to their place of origin, the stiffness, busiest, cause i'm tough to look, give them a delegation arrives at the museum from nigeria. the visitors are seeing many of the art works for the 1st time. well, it's emotional for me because this on or not, it walks a lot for them. these are pieces that actually touches on all aspects of their life rigid from ritual religion, political, historical, so many other things. visitors to museums often see

a history that's been stolen, asked exhibit points out. awareness of that injustice has been rising, including in germany. some $1200.00, been in bronze, us can still be found in museums in berlin, leipzig, cologne, and bremen. what ended up here and how research on the pieces origins, hust gained a new importance as he could and from the aden or b as you can trace, each object who brought it here and what that person's relationship to it was. that means that one hot, that the idea is to gradually of re treat art. that's proven to be a fluted origin, an act that benefits both sides, then des, it'll be acted. so it can, the return of these artifacts will have a big effect as it has huge symbolic value for all nigeria, because it acknowledges that suffering was caused here. she, we also want to express that this is an act of reconciliation and justice being done. if a soon or is it may be

a new era for cultural exchange. some of these objects might even returned to germany sometime in the future, but only as loans from their rightful owners. and would dislike a soccer gland. but we're hoping to slow their slide down the table at halftime, but despite leaving for most of the match, they could only draw $11.00, a 35 minute corner, bounce to an unmarked rail envelope, who tampa balls home and put a glove ahead. oftentimes responded by piling on the pressure and snatched a dramatic equalizer in stoppage time. thanks to kevin aku mas fast feed in the box . glover go into the winter break on a fine game. windless streak will. meanwhile bonus league, a leader is by and munich, beat volves for, for nail and their final game of the seasons 1st half. and it was a special night for their tom score. robert, living off ski, bang to the final goal of the match and the dying minutes. and one ago it was,

a dress rehearsal for next year's world comp in the gulf country. well now as we wrap up the show, let's go for some festive cheer in per room. christmas has come early for these zoo animals in the capital. lima giraffe tigers. and lions were paid a visit by father christmas. and these camels feasted on festive wreaths reasonably relax. corona viras restrictions mean that visitors can return to watch the sous activity and those kids are very happy. i'm marrying, i haven't seen you're up to date on dw, thanks for watching with welcome to the dark side where intelligence agencies are pulling the strings. there was a before 911 and after 911, he says after 911, the clubs came off. where organized crime rules

were conglomerates make their own laws? what's true, what's vague? it doesn't matter. the only criteria is what will hook people. we shed light on the opaque world who's behind the benefits. and why are they a threat to whistle o peak worlds? starts january 5th on d, w. more than 4000 companies worldwide collect and analyze our online data with the help of algorithms google, facebook, amazon, and apple lead the way. but how well do the data collectors know us and what happens with our data? that's our topic on shift today. ah,

shoot, i have nothing to hide. when it comes to data privacy, everyone has heard that phrase before. it's a bit naive though, considering companies definitely know more about us and we like using google as an example. a group of artists from berlin and vienna shows just how much information our data profiles provide. in an experiment, the art is collective law. com reveals how much google knows about us. and we want to have a closer look at the data that big companies like google and facebook alignment every day and facebook you had take us your book. so i thought about how to conduct like an artistic data experiment were leaked us enough, where we can try and seen that if we could reconstruct an entire person's life, couldn't. i'm just their data is that means that says without ever seeing the person owner, that's what is meant to be able to try the in hub on the somebody else will be it.

ringback their documentary film shows how the group started out by looking for potential test persons whose data they could anonymously analyze on google. ringback ringback ringback ready about 100 people applied in the end, the data of an austrian was selected high. oh, it was from the data. the group reconstructed the test person's life movie knowledge, viennese actress natalie koobooley stars as the test person's doppelganger. bringing the data to life in this film where she reacts lisa's life, or finally the to meet face to face. hello dee, had me done. then she started telling me what kind of a person she ever leave out. i am that's. it's been as a so i was born in a little town into oil on the bio pick from leases. google data includes fond

memories, her 1st job or training to become a confectionary. but her data also contains very private details, anger and eating disorder, depression crises, upon being confronted with these memories, lisa has to take a break from the landscape as we'll take a short break for me a little that feeling well. it's this intimacy that makes the art project me to measure highly political well, we thought it open books, depression eating disorders and crises. this is what google knows about us. perhaps there really are some things that we should keep to ourselves. but the experiment goes further. the ok, an artist also focus on me. during the film i need to answer questions. this may

seem basic, but the algorithms from may to measure also process other information. at the end of the program, we show you what else they look out for. and while the results about me are google, it collects my data as soon as i start searching for something online or what's the youtube video? the same is true for apple, amazon and facebook. the magic word here is cookies. cookies are actually tiny text files that are saved on your device. in homeless cases, cookies contain information such as you'll use a name or the language the website should be displayed and but data brokers and advertising companies so called 3rd party uses. also use cookies to gather data. as soon as you allow cookies, your data is collected. the online forms that prevent them from doing so often long and confusing their regularly ignored, and people pay with their data. and it's not just your i p address or user name

that they collect, but your browser history ups and devices to this can make quite a difference. companies like amazon are able to use data such as a person's location or device to give customers different prices. individual uses online behavior can likewise be tracked on many websites. data collect is paid to use cookies on thousands of website xml tenuously. from all this data, they create individual profiles and the more detailed they are, the more profitable in meal time bidding data brokers sell user data profiles to the highest bidder in real time was the uses are still on the website, advertises by them to create a personalized split 2nd ad to pay this means that when i search online, the information collected is instantly sent off to companies,

which can then target me with ad words as a result, online services or anything but free. i am being monitored in real time with my data sold for profit. so could i avoid this by browsing anonymously using a vpn to hide my ip address? unfortunately, no. the company's was collect our data still recognizes from our digital fingerprints. for example, they know which operating system i'm using, which plugins i installed, what resolution my screen is and which fonts i installed on my device. this information is enough to identify me online, but our data is not only used for advertising, banks and insurance companies. i also keen on having access to it many online banks use machine learning algorithms to conduct credit assessments. they use massive amounts of data collected from different sources. how quickly does the user complete their credit application and how many mistakes to they make?

were there facebook friends? and what sir, google search history like? all this data is combined and then compared to that of existing customers. see a user has searched for online gambling site before and is installed a font on their device that is also used by online casinos. this could lead to their credit application rejected even health insurance companies are interested in data like from fitness trackers or exercise ends. sharing this data can get you benefits. and even a more affordable health insurance offer. digital monitoring could have positive sites, for example, you can receive a bonus for exercising, but there's a fine line between this digital surveillance in china. social scoring systems have

been introduced in some regions, algorithms observe and evaluate citizens behavior. if someone smokes to much or played video games too often, they might not be allowed to buy 1st class train tickets for example. it sounds very much like jobs or will speak brother in 1984 algorithms play a large role online. facebook take talk on youtube. our personal data is used for content recommendations. this means every person sees something different online. some scientists are concerned that this could lead to the disintegration of our digitalized society into factional groups. when content includes fake news and alternative truths, this becomes especially problematic. radical vaccination skeptics and corona virus deny is often claim to be living in a dictatorship comparing themselves to the jewish population in nazi germany. as algorithms keep feeding them more of the same, they believe in conspiracy theories is encouraged, right?

when social media 1st started up, there was widespread concern that algorithms might recommend content that keeps uses in the so called filter level with breaking news quickly spreads. but that's not quite how it works as you tube shands, that. gov was wondering if there was this filter bubble effect and the public pressure on youtube was increasing. so they kept adjusting their algorithms. and in a study, we were able to show that the content that you can find on youtube and that is recommended to you. one has become increasingly diverse in recent years, most a tom, it's not the full to bubble effect seems to be less influential than previously assumed you. i'm a guy, a study shows that you tubes algorithms recommend a diverse range of content with on the other hand,

for most experts and feel can you know how to trick the algorithm in a certain amount of wrong information will always end up on the platform. a performance, an italian study from 2021, analyzed millions of tweets about political issues, and found that people who often click on content containing fake news of conspiracy theories usually had extreme political views to start with. and they also often actively choose to read posts containing similar themes. i believe they're still way too much fake news on social media, but algorithms alone are not responsible for use us becoming radicalized. back at the start of the show, we introduced you to the experimental made to measure which aims to show how much personal data is available online by closely monitoring the participants. so let's see what the experiment was able to find out about me. me

and now watching the metal metal of him on the website. the special thing about it is i'm being tracked myself by watching and i will get that personality profile generated for me at the end. let's have a look 4 times as many searches aesthetically the film is great. it's also interactive. sometimes you have to interpret all the collected data yourself to guess what happens next. but watching a film at work is not as easy as it sounds. and we'll let's keep going alone, sitting in my room in england, i learned about an online fitness program that i won't forget anytime i think that sometime. so that was it. interesting that now i'm really excited to see what the oddest group on has to say about me. after spending only one hour on their website

. here is the psychological profile. you have a critical by your mac. now, we're at an average speed. you should read more trivial stuff. i think you reached only 35 percent of your potential. what you want. i was really surprised to see what conclusions about my character can be drawn from the data. the data even includes my mouse movements. it might seem absurd at 1st, but it's exactly this type of information that data brokers used to analyze. i'll precisely, and it's not a pleasant thought. what are you most concerned about when it comes to data privacy? let us know. i see you next time. ah, a

into the conflict zone with sebastian on come pick this week, ethiopia, civil war, no more than a year old and showing no sign of end o sites are accused of unspeakable atrocities that are deborah the minister of democratize asia and joins me from the capital a. com please. on the next one on d, w. they breathe. mm. they have body and soul is then daniel lee biskin construction more and more than just buildings is. architecture is

a celebration of democracy and daniel and architect motions in 30 minutes on d. w. a global ideas is on its way to bring you more conservation. how do we make seniors greener? how can we protect habitats? we can make a difference, a mental series that can go to $3000.00 on t, w, and online. on conflicts on this week, ethiopia civil war, now more than a year old and showing no sign of ending all sites are accused of unspeakable atrocity. that is, abraham is the minister for democratization, and he joins me in the capital, addis ababa? what we, once we have been playing it,

it turns out your troops have committed just as many war crimes as the other side. are they ordered to do that, or are they out of control? which is it? no, we, we aim at all new york with the countries. prime minister abbey act read, won a nobel prize for making peace with neighboring eritrea. this time he's promised to bury his enemies in the northern region. the gray while they fight more than 2000000 people have been displaced and thousands face famine. will ethiopia government stop the math detention of the gray and will event the humanitarian block h t. great. and how does the government justify its found on the media? all that and more on conflicts on for the welcome to complex zone. would you see your

your government has promised to hold accountable any of your forces that violated human rights, especially those who committed acts of rape. how many of your soldiers have been tried and sentenced for these violations? i can come up with a specific number before then the fusion has stopped. and since we haven't, we haven't started. you say it hasn't stopped, hasn't. hasn't people haven't been sentenced, have their id number of people have been go to court of law. so the census has yet to happen, but in this case, you don't want more. people will need more more data to discuss. so nobody has been sentenced. so 5 is what you're telling me what i'm saying, and i'm telling you after the corpus government has committed some, as we're going to the committee are going to change the process. and the government

has also explicit scrutiny of your commission. so income that i wasn't asking you about the process i was asking about the resolved whether any body had sentence but now i'm not, has any sentence. i don't even need the number i have anybody being sent so far? yes. and are we talking about 5101500 roughly. how many come up with the speaking number and can you tell me what the range of penalties has been? so far? you have a number. i don't have the permissions. yes, that's, but it is, it is because we have very transparent processes. it's miss barbara, it's transparent as well. it is, you can't even tell me how many people have been arrested, detained, prosecuted, it doesn't mean i don't have it,

but it doesn't look well, we have shown by the group. so i don't think transparency. then if we use just permission, i don't know. well, it is, according to the office of the human rights commissioner. she liked up considerable concerns about your judicial processes. she said disturbingly that your court proceedings lacked transparency and didn't meet international standards. what's your for that? you tell me there's transparency. she says, there isn't any, we haven't reforms we've been making up after the promotional standards to making them transparent ones and we have gate. we have gone in a number of steps when it comes to that. i think one of the things where we can say when it comes to our processes for the saint, happy is what happens when the number of people have you seen the company? and if you give the person, i'd say that, why don't,

why don't these trials take place in public with the press free to report on them. you know, some of these things. so come, come on by one, watch the courts. and when it's when, if you haven't seen by, by, by the car, but we have no problem. it's the macro. i pads. yes. having an interest on these things are very interested because it's not any important that has to be seen to be done as well as government has shown high level in the company and again and, and making it to and yeah, can, it's up to the court. it's a joint report by the un human rights office and the p o. p. as human rights commission,

was released last month. it turns out your troops have committed just as many war crimes as the other side of a order to do that. all of a out of control, which is it, know we, we aim at one of those. and, you know, you have the number that you accepted the report. you accept. yeah. we have, we've got we have, yes. we have to implement the recommendation indicated by the, during. ready the investigation by organized by so out, and i mean when you we've been exhibit, it's not, it's, it's, and that there are some of less than that. how do you

think that's what it is indicating and we are committed to make sure that we get was brought up. and if you sent this as not, not only have the trustees been committed minister, but michel bachelor, the un chief human rights officer says it appears your forces along with those of eritrea committed the majority of the violations for the 1st 8 months of the conflict between november 20, 20 and june this year. that's. that's a hugely damaging observation for your government. isn't it? isn't. that was we have just been comes to the number of it's for me and hopefully, but it was all that we don't want to debate. i'm on intensity or whatever that may have happened when one person on it doesn't matter. we don't want to have

that. if you want to know that i didn't, i mean, hasn't been so as well. the number comes in and example of shifting and defensiveness and that does not be present but once that was brought to a quote and it went to so you say your army is here to, to. busy high standards, but there are a remarkable variety, a huge variety of serious crimes listed as having been committed by your forces attacks against civilians and indiscriminate attacks. for instance, november 28th last year. the report says, your army shelter, civilian facilities in mckellar, killing at least 29 people, an enduring 34. doesn't that shock you when we don't read these kind of mileage, but it doesn't change the fact that adam has interesting to be

a member of yours. you can mission, so i think it's looking it's people's exhibit passivity. and that shouldn't be. let's see, these kind of mission backs you where, why don't you go and get the lab just because i don't have a plan that we foods we feel within has been pushing for me. i want to, i want to come on to the question of a little bit later, but before we leave these crimes, 11 of the categories highlighted by the report was sexual and gender based violence . and the report says, your army, along with other forces was implement implicated in multiple reports of gang rape. used to degrade and the human eyes victims. so these crimes multiple,

multiple reports of gang, right? these crimes are just the work of a few. roque soldiers out there, some of your colleagues have suggested that systematic that practiced and repetitive. i wonder what would lead your troops to think those violations are acceptable. you know, we are wanting to have this vision and you know, we put any money to get them to fill out our people. our army was there. but if you could answer the phone, if you go from there, we can hold us. and we want to be so much, it is only the apple dv adam. and we are making sure that people are for you. it doesn't mean it doesn't. it doesn't that are out of one can push. it would be so much out of our if you, once you that if you see someone there wasn't,

there was an opportunity to speak to people what we now know, minutes that we now know minister, that terrible crimes were also committed by your allies from eritrea. you told this program last december that you were a 1000 percent sure. but there were no changes in your country. in fact, they've been there since last november, according to it, right? actual investigation. why? why didn't you mention that? what i said? i so right now i'm in my life regina and for a 2nd, you know, we have to be, was in december. it's eric try and tramps, whether in november, months before, you know, when they, when they came, when, when we went out in the show, it has been added to the payment that has come up and talked about it. and then, you know, we may have your permission which you september, mine was right before december. that's why it was not said of an issue to me.

it was said business information. we have the graph. but it wasn't until march, that prime is the abbe revealed, but every train forces had entered ethiopia. he said to support him, up until then your government was dismissing all the reports as hostile propaganda and in a pro your information minister. your money, deborah, my scout said the report about a retry and troops raping to grey and women was simply fabricated stories fabricated by the party in power and the great that the grand people's liberation front. that was nonsense. the stories were not fabricated, they did right. people and they rate a lot of women, didn't they? well i think that i get to say when the information we had on the ground was come up already booked about it while we inflammation. and

we come up, you're doing and came up with said to my own talking about my district in may, your attorney general admitted that your area, tray, and friends had executed a 110 civilians in cold blood in a place called acts. who what do you think of your return friends now? you know, following what we have come up with a 40 points that maybe keeps ever on evans and that has changed situation. 10 civilians murdered in cold blood. are these people to be held responsible by your government? we, we have a good relation. we believe the government. we will also be part of this effort to

bring to justice. and we have new, i'm trying to prosecute eritrea and soldiers are you, are you telling me now your government intends to prosecute? i mean, what is it for me by whoever you should be prosecuted? where did, where, who was originally. ready or different that's another way i can, you know, kind of i try and force is still in ethiopia. your prime minister said in march that he got an agreement for them to leave, but i hadn't left yet. have they come? when did they leave? we're to seek time and can you give me a month? can you, can you say, well, i'm not sure. i don't want to see what i can have

and you say that with the same kind of authority, as you said was a year ago and you said they weren't in the country based on the information i had on my end. i have told you that now my information we have into we have we have and i'm sure that the minister part of the reason for a lack of transparency and ethiopia these days is your crack down on the press, which is something that you vehemently denied on this program a year ago, your denials haven't held up very well. have a the committee to print tech journal a said a week ago. but since the start of the war, they documented multiple violations and press freedom by your government. we have not gone in personal and came up with a new port richey personal. we haven't, we have the following form. the 1st week in the new york, it has increased in bows in terms of number 20 something on december. the 1st at least 9 reporters,

wherein custody if they committed crimes charge and if they have because that's part of the information. you know, we have the problem be about the condition of not even going to be working towards putting an offer on the trying to cause i will look at the, at the end of october, give you an example of what you've been doing at the end of october, you forced the closure of the, our low media center and online news out that that was critical of the prime minister before that the committee to protect journalists says media workers were arrested in late june and detained incommunicado for several weeks. at the military camp in the east of the country, you detain these people incommunicado. this is my fear style, thuggery by your government, isn't it? me tell you that you're not a crime. and if that's the case,

will continue to make sure that even when it comes to this yet claim that the bunch that we have we have for the past. forty's, we have thought this lead him because you're, you finished, we have that, you know, he's gone. this report has to, because i have to come up. i have to give the names of the mission because we're coming up with a number that i give you or give you specific information. minister court orders for the release of 2 journalists were given at least 2 cases where court orders were given to release them from custody. and they weren't released came from walk who, a radio journalist and testify, alarm tech lead correspondence foundation, media group. they were still in detention earlier this month, weeks after they were granted bail. now you present the picture of

a government that ignores the rulings of its own court. know that the country may know what, what happened after the next novel and when, when i'm not free, as you know, minister that your, that your own and human rights commission has also expressed grave concern about the detention of thousands of people in the capital under your state of emergency, and the difficulty of gathering information about the treatment of those in detention of a wrong, of a wrong turn. when a window and we are looking into a night, or if we don't let you're in charge, either you're in charge of the country or not, you're ordering these detentions not, not to be aware of them. is it? no, no, this is a package for this. and we have, we have, we have a chat,

you know, the last thing is we haven't put it in borrowing that was, has picked it up for me in data now under the roof. no. that is, that being prosecuted in this process, me to be wrong with your injury and what that is taking. do you know? that's why you don't want to have someone coming up is issuing the standard report, which is explaining even our wrong the results of the it doesn't come to me just pick, you know, you've also taken measures again senior un shows you throughout 7 of them in september you didn't like them telling the change the expulsions were ordered 2 days after the u. n. a chief war that your restrictions on the flow of aid had probably forced hundreds of thousands of people in the grade to famine. do you throw out the foreigners now? because you don't like what they're saying about your government. not. we've been working with a partner. we are a member of the union. so we have,

we have, we knew we worked in under any circumstance that doesn't mean that individual tompkins and their own, their own, their own bibles. and they're putting, you know, in terms of that, that's sticking in. the government has explain. the reason why you have the white house in washington says that you have exhibited a pattern of obstructing the delivery of food medicine and other life saving supplies to those who are most in need. i presume you are aware that blocking food and medical supplies without justification, violates international humanitarian law. what don't you can? that's one. that's what this war is looking increasingly unwinnable. will you negotiate or are you only interested in outright victory?

you know, we have, you, we have lots of in and we have a lot to lose in depth. and so what we want is, is we have been trying to secure a piece. so for money and hormones game or the ever you, that's why we are here. and you know, we have way to couple of least for these things to either themselves. miss the very joint investigative report issued last month calls on you and the other combatants 2 immediately, and hostilities without pre conditions. and any measures that are exacerbating, they already acute humanitarian crisis. will you do that? we don't we, we clear that to you and we don't talk today, but if it is, it's a joke. that's how our initial 4 pieces look.

you know, we have a, do you think you've all done unspeakably awful things to each other. how can there be reconciliation? now we have moved. it has to go back to where it is now is occupying a number of inquiry or cities that has to be stopped. we have the didn't have committed atrocities as well. let's be honest. you know, we are looking to do that. we have taken a number of meters to correct that. let me, you know, leave you will happen to go to a number of you know, she just had to try to get on the women's ripped out of the road. to go there

again, you have also been implicated in rapes, you have selected, you seem to be very selective. when comes we are taking and picking it number for ricky where we're bringing the part of know where to ensuring account but it is so much minimum. so why, why did you reject a plan by the you and human rights council to discuss what it called the grave human rights situation in your country in geneva, on december, the 17th? well, that's coming up on discussing the issue. you know, i'll be happy to do that id and then african countries discussing about i'm pretty can and the 2nd thing is we have our company and we have a so that they can be yes, we have mr recommendation by for me in the community. and that's not where we have

taken it. why, why now? why not? what have you gotten too high and has given you this is not, you know, whether and you might think about it, it has to be it, it has to be put on and, and without discrimination where we don't want to happen. you know, if, if there are with about courses and we allow life either because we have doing that on a part of that is not the way you tell me call. please understand that we have accepted some of the due diligence and we haven't been in

touch with him. and the same time, i don't know because i will the fact that even if and number in a number of cds and what it is, the situation is, is that doesn't sound and part of that. so this is not something we had a well i guess this number of african countries definitely that would have to submit your code on everybody to reject this meeting. looks like you have something to hide. minister know if you had something, we didn't have it just coming in on my commission that didn't happen. we, you know, we have allowed them to come on now in our i, the city madison has added ministers that are gabriella, i'm afraid we're out of time. thank you very much for being on conflict. so thank
