2:02 pm
to natalie. i'm the oss due to assemble into as human rights watch, the associate director in europe and central asia would see thoughts about the greek coast goss response. well yes, they actually absolutely could and should have done more. of course, there are many, many outstanding questions about what happened and that's why we need to have a full, incredible investigation. but i can already say that arguing that they were justified in not providing assistance because the passengers on the boat didn't want it is unjustified. it's not a legal argument. the boat was clearly in distress, is clearly and see where the an overcrowded and the have that it coast guard, and indeed any, any best or in the area had the paramount obligation to provide assistance. and do you have any reason to doubt what the greek co scott is saying?
2:03 pm
it's very early to tell um, as i said, what we need to see is a full incredible investigation. i will say, however, that there have been several instances in which we and others have documented misconduct by the headline at coast guards, including participating in push backs uh boats and individuals in the gmc. so there is, there are precedents to raise some very serious questions about their action. now a moment ago we had some a break for the tuition, the form a t m, of race. let's just see press that legal migration roads on needed. is that the viable solution as well? of course we and many, many others have been calling for years for creation and some of the state legal
2:04 pm
channels for asylum seekers and immigrants to reach the countries of the e. u without having to risk their lives on these incredibly dangerous journeys. what instead we see is the e, you focusing on the ceiling, it's borders on pursuing, to turn the deterrence measures that only make these journeys more expensive and more dangerous. and we've, we've also seen you advocate almost entirely it's responsibilities for a search and rescue. let's see, and do you think that enough is being done to fight the traffic is well, i think that it is actually something of a shameful to version of you politicians and decision makers to focus on the role of a smugglers and track. of course, obviously there are extremely unscrupulous smugglers and traffickers are submitting
2:05 pm
very serious crimes. but people turn to smuggler, it's because they have no other options. and the increased availability of safe and legal channels would certainly help to minimize the number of people who have to turn to smugglers and put their lives and livelihoods in, in those, in those hands. the broader of responsibility i would argue lies on e. u. member states and the institution that are failing to adopt rational and to me rights respecting, migration and asylum policy. now, greece and actually i'm on the my main passage ways into the you full of migrants from africa, asia, in the middle east. what legal migration routes that we discuss, the idea of what, what they look like as well there. all sorts of options. i mean one, uh, very obvious. one is uh, a increased re settlement of recognize refugees. there are millions of refugees
2:06 pm
around the world uh, identified and recognized by uh, also by the you and hcr. there's a whole system in place for resettling people from the countries where they 1st fled and recognizes refugee to other countries where they can really be built that their, their lives in the eu has a very poor record in the number of people had at least settled every year, another other options include ensuring there's a greater ability to apply for asylum once, while you're still outside of the country it's of the use. so for example, to cancel it and, and the seas as well as a whole range of measures to increase the ability of, of people who are coming not for international protection reasons, not because they are fleeing or persecution, but because they have skills that they want to work they want to study,
2:07 pm
they want to participate in the arts. so a whole range of, of measures that could increase the chances of people being able to get a visa and, and travel safely. judith sons with that with the human rights watch. thank you very much. thank you. a dual credit. it says it has down's 12 for us and miss also including 6 hypersonic controls of the capital key. the light is striking. the several african leaders arrived in the city on a piece mission. the delegation includes south african president obama post them, as well as lead us from senegal. zombie of the camaros and egypt stay, we expect to hold talks with you printing and president for the minute the landscape before traveling onto saint petersburg to meet with vladimir putin on saturday. and i also w correspondent, nick connelly and key florence ukraine and officials are saying about this latest
2:08 pm
strike. well, certainly this was a very loud warning here in care of lots of antique a missile systems. the to be heard of people were just going about that day, and then there was a, an error, a warning, and within a few minutes, those bangs got going sense that these were very foss, minimalistic themselves, that are harder to shoot down van cruise missiles for now they're talking about 12 themselves in total, that was shut down, but they came in. this does come with some surprise in the past when prominent foreigners does have come to cape, especially ones with good ties to russia. as the case with the african delegation, the russians have chose not to attack cube. that was the case when the chinese representative was here a couple of weeks ago. and this time very different. i think there's a real hope here in cuba that this will bring home to ality of this will, will move maybe some of these leads away from that position of noon to try to say stopped employing this conflict. get them to realize that this is a world is a sense that you're seeing these things experiencing it on your own. is
2:09 pm
a very different proposition to reading the news about ukraine for false. that's definitely the hope here that they can also get these asking me just to sign up to ukraine's efforts to get negotiations. guy rather than trying to kind of jot some kind of course of strict neutrality between rushing your brain. and you mentioned the african leaders of the visiting a team today. how does this meeting this mission today differ from previous encounters with representatives from following the governments? for example, most recently from china or indonesia, it's actually difficult to say what it is that brings the table in terms of a solution, a way to get to the negotiating table right now, both ukraine and russia. sticking to that, to mom's ukraine's no moods to make big territorial concessions. the russians to freeze the conflict, as you know, the russians of what we want them to. and the has been talk of and didn't vote as a got some information about some draft proposals that the african delegation is suggesting. some kind of russian withdrawal, not clear if that's full withdrawal,
2:10 pm
which is possible withdrawal as a prerequisite for maybe having some set. this is a rush listed as a kind of confidence building measures towards starting towards, but it is very difficult to see what it is they can achieve. and certainly there are lots of other societies just to this destruction and tactic, you know, something for coming in for a lot of prison fritz links to russia. and maybe this is just about the piano for me, commonly that reporting from t. thank you. me. that's i hope not, some of the other stories making headlines around the world today. the cycling site loan be part, joy has hate parts of india and parts of stones intends winds and heavy rain hit. lastly, deserts at coastal towns with roofs bone of houses, trees and electrical poles. while approaches in india is west and state of good. you're right. almost 200000 people. what types of the shelters head of the stone fold fonts is, has been released from hospital in rome, after a hernia operation. the 86 year old had surgery 9 days ago. the vast can cancelled
