he has running late. he wants to talk job again. when i ran for prison 4 years ago, i said we're in a band from school mirror, english to lower. the question profession is with early years ahead. we have more freedom, we're less free. we're rates are few. i know what i want to use and if he can do to ensure vite and had this, please have voters has finished his listings with by day and has been trying to project an image of strength and action abroad. he's been showing his support for ukraine in its war with russia . our support for gray will lot waiver nato will not be divided and we will not tire. biden has also been on the road at home here touting his economic plan in wisconsin. or here, celebrating a bridge project funded in part by his infrastructure plan,

observer. se biden believes he's on a role, especially after some important bipartisan victories last year. but he's also facing problems. his lawyers found classified material from his time as vice president triggering a special investigation and during comparisons to the scandal over documents found in donald trump's home. he's also pretty unpopular biden's approval ratings fell to 39 percent this month nearing the lowest level of his presidency so far. and then there's his age. he's already the oldest president in us history. he won a 2nd time. he'd be $86.00 by the end of it. republicans will do all they can to exploit these weaknesses, to portray him as corrupt, unpopular, and old. the key chest you, he will face is not clear yet who run for the republicans, but biden will have a grueling path back to the white house of his official announcement has long been expected, but is there something to it's timing?

i put that question to date of these my helicopter in washington dc. but it's very interesting that he didn't declare earlier, and that he didn't sit tight and wait until he's resolved what he has to resolved, or which is the struggle between him and the republicans in up on capitol hill to resolve the debt ceiling issue. to raise that debt ceiling. so the united states doesn't default on its debt, which could happen as soon as this summer. so now this could be used against him as a potential candidates because one thing's for sure. donald trump certainly does not want to see a rematch of that dwell between him and joe biden, that he lost in the past. both aren't yet officially nominated. they all still have to face primaries, but this is where this is headed. and the key reason to declare now and not later seems to be that joe biden needs to start lining up money. those big donors

expected to descend upon washington dc. pretty soon to talk financial strategy of what could be a very long and grueling campaign. the joe biden has been making the case that his administration has unfinished a business, but given his ratings that we saw in that report just now, how likely do you think american voters are to give him a 2nd term? yeah, that's the interesting question. well, more than 50 percent, 56 percent, according to some polls say that they wouldn't vote for him, for joe biden upwards the 65 percent say they wouldn't vote for donald trump. now, these simply cannot translate into a lecture results in the end. if both were to run, so he seems to be slightly more popular, certainly than donald trump. at the same time, there is a lot of criticism, particularly looking into the future, his age, him being $86.00 at the end of a potential 2nd term. and that is something that the republicans also eagerly

pointing out, although they have to be careful because their own potential kind of donald trump is heading towards ac pretty fast as well. but if you speak to younger policy, they said the younger democrats and less than 25 percent want to see him run again . but at the same time, in many say that he outperformed their expectations, which one that high to start with. but he did initiate debt forgiveness program for graduates here in the united states. although that has run into some difficulty. he did get this huge infrastructure package through many didn't really believe he would be able to get such landmark legislation through freeing hundreds of billions of dollars in investment, creating jobs here in the country. so he does have a pretty strong record to point out, but that really wasn't at the focus of his pitch, his pitches, he needs to defend democracy in the united states,

and that he's the only one who could do it. and it looks like his democrat party is certainly found the rallying behind him. now that he's declared, thank you so much for that analysis that's need obviously calico nor for us in washington, dc. and bivens announcement comes as jury selection is set to begin today in a civil case against former us president donald trump is one of many cases and investigations a trumpet facing. the former magazine columnist e. jean carol claimed donald trump raped her in a department store dressing room in the 1990 s. when she's also suing for battery church. trump has that in response that he has never met carol. he's not expected to attend the hearings. trump also faith of criminal charges from the new york district attorney, as well as investigations into election interference and his business practices. let's go to sudan now where renewed clashes are threatening to up and a us broker sees fire between warring parties, the sudanese army and rival paramilitaries had agreed to seize hostilities for 72

hours beginning at midnight on tuesday. residents have reported ongoing gunfire and explosions in the capital. hard to many civilians are still trapped there with food and water running low. so don's capital cartoon has been a battle ground hundreds of lost their lives and thousands wounded. with the army and paramilitaries battling for control of the country, those remaining in the city of finding basic supplies like food and water, a becoming ever most gas power cuts and communications disruptions, and now commonplace hospitalizations, thrown into chaos with medical supply chains disrupted impatience. miss stranded this kidney, dialysis patient hasn't received treatment for 9 days. we are very tired. we hope that god helps the country and protect. we are so tired. my potassium levels are high. my kidney function is high and there is no dialysis. we're calling

on the authorities to find a solution for those who need medical help. and i can tell you. meanwhile, phone governments continue evacuation efforts. this un convoy carried around $700.00 staff from cartoon to port sir don on a 35 hour journey to safety. un secretary general antonia could terror as since the dawn would not be abandoned, allow me to let me be clear. united nations is not living. so then our commitment is to the sudanese people in support of their wishes for a peaceful and secure future. we spent with them at the sterile time and it's not just foreigners fleeing the country. tens of thousands of sudanese across the borders into neighboring countries. a great fear, a refugee crisis, would put further strain and already stretched humanitarian supplies. and for those remaining and sudan, they can only hope that this time the ceasefire lasts for more on the story,

i'd like to welcome abby all while doing back to the program. she's an international development consultant who's and following what is happening in sudan . we have to us mediated ceasefire in effect, but i want to ask you whether your contacts have told you whether the fighting has really decreased. well, i know that was one of the contacts, the actually a relative of mine who is in under mon, which is the twin twin city of cartoon that this morning there was no fighting around 1039 and downtime, but around 30 to 45 minutes later there was apparently some some, some fighting going on in the area. so i have spoken to different contacts that. busy are preparing to leave. a lot of them, you know, these contexts are either, so the needs or they are trusted in need or from other nations that don't

necessarily have the capacity to evacuate them from the country. so they're looking at different options in terms of which are the easiest land borders that they can make it to. and you also have experience working in the area of humanitarian aid. i want to ask you what you think should be a priority to ensure help reaches those who are unable to leave the country. well, i think it's incredibly clear that 1st of all, there, there has to be a ceasefire. there has to be at least some areas of the, of the city of cartoon, which is the most dense city in sudan that are left free for military personnel to operate. and especially those in the medical field. it's clear that there needs to be some sort of durable fire so that there can be a, just a general assessment in order to, to see where the needs are. because right now there are, there are people who haven't been reached. and moreover,

beyond the urgent food and water needs, there's also the danger with the fact that the public utilities are disrupted and also lot of buildings have been destroyed. there's also the, the issue of sanitation and the fact that waterborne illnesses could be a real problem coming up. so i think that the main issues are obviously food, water, shelter, and medical supplies. and moreover, there are also a lot of refugees in sudan over 1000000, many of the refugees and sit on our women and children. and a lot of times these are people who are themselves already quite fragile, quite on the fall. and so there is a need for them to be able to access humanitarian aid. thank you so much for bringing up to speed there. that is the well done, really appreciate you taking the time speaking or israel is marking its memorial day to honor fallen soldiers and victims of militant attacks. people

across the country came to a standstill as sirens sounded for a moment of remembrance. military flyovers also marked the occasion. memorial day comes ahead of the country 75th independence day celebrations. this year's events are taking place and an escalation and violence between israel and palestinians, and deep divisions among israelis over controversial judicial reforms. prime minister benjamin netanyahu delivered a speech at the official ceremony in jerusalem. yes, but normally go together. we will stand as brothers and we will secure our independence from generation to generation. together we will stand as brothers and we will bow our heads and endless gratitude for the heroism of the fallen, the crew of them. so as israel prepares to also mark the 75th anniversary of its foundation to abuse, israel correspondent tanya kramer met 2 women who had very different experiences of the 1st independence day. and what followed? come on, darling ben,

google. yon reads out the declaration of independence into levies. this state of israel is born ah, you did as cana was a teenager at the time her parents had left nazi germany and moved to television. then part of the british mandate, palestine. ben, go yon's declaration seated independence from the british in 48. what i, what i remember is this, the curation of the states and the i remember the pictures with, i saw in the newspapers in england, still watching at that time. and they were happiness in the dancing and is this child i am felt much less the beginning of the big war which salted immediately afterwards.

that hall was launched by military alliance of arab states against israel. the fighting would last for 10 months. glued it, hovers was also child at the time she lived here with her family in west jerusalem that had left before the war even begin an uptick and violence and a bomb exploding in their garden men. the family fled 1st to jericho and then to jordan. from prior to 1948 the life we had, we would happy happy. and we had our own home, our own garden, our friends, family, friends, cousins or and out. and it was a beautiful life. and then it always became throw matic. very hard, very difficult. during the war, about 700000 palestinians fled away,

expelled no 75 years later, no matter where they ended up. many palestinians still are displaced and without their own sovereign state. claudette hubbard no lives and is rarely occupied east jerusalem. but like many, she cannot claim her family home bags that were not many of my people assisted living in refugee camps at aunt that a wood. and i'm the word all out of the word, and they still whole that that it will be the chance to return home, but there is any ality off to thee, but there will never be peace if there is no justice. justice, 1st of the piece for you did it come out to this unfinished business at the victory demonstrations against the traditional overhaul? she and some crimes demonstrate against israel, military occupation of the palestinian territories,

and the governments controversial plans to curb the supreme court's powers. nowadays, i'm very pessimistic because this the way because we are not going to get in we, i mean, the ones who demonstrate that for sort of their life and more and more than that. and it's my to me to super war because no side will give in for her. these demonstrations are as much about the past as the future of the country. mm hm. i'm joined now by robbie, dumber than a member of a joint israeli palestinian initiative. that brings together families who have lost loved ones in the conflict. it's called the parents circle families forum. thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us. i want to ask if you could tell us 1st how and why you joined to this organization. my son was killed by

a personal soccer in 2002 when the army end to tell me one of the 1st things i said is you cannot kill anybody in the name of my child. and so it was very clear that i was going to do something and the framework that i found was the parents circle families for a. how do you go from morning such a devastating event in your life to then sitting at the table with others to try to seek reconciliation? you know, one of the city in killed my child, not the whole palestinian nation. and once i recognized sitting around the table and looking into the eyes of palestinian mothers and realizing that she had the same pain. and that if we could stand up on the stage in talking the same voice for nonviolence and reconciliation, then wouldn't that be an example for everybody else? and that's how i cooked. and that's why what i get up in the morning is to do this

work. and the message is not local, it's an international message. and your organization has also arranged an alternative memorial day event. can you tell us what the idea behind this as well, it is a nice way, but it's not the organization we're 2 organizations. it's also combatants for peace, who is really the senior partner. and this is an opportunity to bring her because most of the ceremonies around memorial day are just about mystery. but for us, for israelis and palestinians to see that there is some hope and that people can go through transformation is the most extraordinary thing. and actually last night, nearly 15000 people came to the ceremony, which was one of the most moving. and i think it's close to 300000 people all over

the world today. you can actually find the ceremony on here too. and do you feel that there has been increasing support for your organization and for this kind of event? well i think what really happened. so see the minister of defense. i try to stop the palestinians from coming in to the ceremony. and so we went to the supreme court, which in fact is the best you know, democracy. and this of course gotten no coverage in the media which created the hearts of many people a desire to come and stand together with us. and this was such a warming, the whole, the whole feeling of democracy is at stake here. and so i think that this year would be what so you know, because this is what's going on in the country we are facing a fascist government,

will placing a municipal police is trying to stop us from talking in schools and we are facing so many other problems i had to get permits for purchase unions to company and so we don't do that because how it happens to be a very big part of the equation of looking for peace. and yesterday it was just one way you bring and showing people. there is an alternative to the giving. thank you so much for taking the time to speak with us today on d w. that is the timeline. we really appreciate it. thank you. well, every year, malaria kills more than $600000.00 people. most of them are children, but it says the world health organization is marking world malaria day a new vaccine is raising hope that the disease could one day be eradicated. nearly half of the world population is at risk of contracting malaria,

but 96 percent of deaths occur in sub saharan africa. the new are 21 vaccine produced by oxford university is still in the final stage of trials. but gonna, and nigeria have already given it provisional approval am so pleased to welcome the app on regional representative for the epicenter africa. it's the research arm of doctors without borders. he joins us now from y'all one day in cameroon. i thank you so much for taking the time. can i ask you 1st, how significant of a development this new vaccine could be in preventing the spread of malaria? yes, thanks for the me leaving us more correction. i'm dealing with a piece out in the board, but i'm currently the director of the pastor in bunkie, which is just nearby cameron. i have some of these things. i do not work with no, no problem. so the vaccine, it's a great hope and i've,

you've mentioned some can't be on the pretty no results are really pushing to roy or countries love central african republic. cameroon, and many orders are also currently pushing garvey, we use the robot alliance with, i've seen you should chief so that they can be in a good position to receive those function. why? because it's going to bring a tremendous change in, in protecting children, especially, and more than $600000.00 people die every year from malaria. as we've pointed out, most of them in africa, do you think this vaccine could really work toward achieving the goal of 0 malaria in the region? yes, you've mentioned it. africa has more than 95 percent of the deaf of malaria. so the vaccine, it's critical. but it is not the tube we still need to invest, to innovate and to implement. what has been walking the most mosquito bits that for

example, every single child africa most beat sleeping under the business. we also have to make sure that the community engage so that you have, i think what they need for malaria. we need one hour is what can be launched today by the president of car. we've been important community engagement where the community is really key. that's how we might need to get to the 0 money. so in addition to things like mosquito nets and community engagement, are there other measures that are also necessary toward combatting malaria, even in conjunction with a promising new vaccine? definitely one of the most we could, you could, could be cutting is the diagnostics children and the population mental job because other must have been able to choose a country and they must have it whenever they have fever within one hour to have access. so we need to keep on working on the research to make sure

that we have the most performance that which is what it does that you're using. but also from non value weight. we don't actually picking that's critical. we need more diagnostics. we need more treatment that has to be near by the children and the family, and then to vaccine with come on top of that who drink us goes to the mother and i want to come back to something you mentioned earlier. do you have a sense already of what the production and distribution of this vaccine would look like? or should look like in africa? i mean, how it's related to look like we must take advantage of what happened at the end of covey. you have cop copper of countries in a gallery with the bottle of the car we have for africa. you have to use all those countries of short interest on building on the rocker production of vaccine. i

think we should really take advantage, maria, it's a huge you know, for the other vaccine, 98 percent of the other vaccine are important. you know, these hostage, i think my leader is under porcine team, which we've not money. cuz coby, but he's still fortunately to have the vaccine codes, you know, kelly for the disease that is a leverage guntee these when we talk about 94, like you've high percent of the dis, happened in the continent. so we need to have duck autonomy. we need to have that independence and being in the body shop to produce locally those boxes, even also due for the gap on thank you so much for taking the time to speak with us today. we really appreciate it. pleasure. while harry bellefonte, an entertainment giant, who became the appeared in me of the celebrity activist, has died at the age of 90. 6, bellefonte began his groundbreaking, acting,
