4:02 pm
legitimate or for c. and we can get more from b, lou, our den, an international development consultant, and a political analyst focusing on east africa. and these the health region welcome to dw the phone. the ruling policy in new jersey says that the one to has now arrested 4 bits of ministers. tell us how significant mrs. i think that it is pretty significant and it's also a sign that the hunter i still in the process of um i would say re, i'm really enjoying the tactics as a rapper. t. they're trying to, to use these people to a certain extent as bargaining shit because they are getting quite a bit of pressure from eco us, uh, to move to a democratic transition. they also are specifically uh, trying to get the credit lines ran as
4:03 pm
a potential stakeholder and any negotiations. so i think that the moves are actually, there's a, there's a level of sophistication to discrete data in the fact that they have not automatically announced that they will move to a democratic transition. and most likely holding that as a bargaining chip for late for later down the road. mm hm. you mentioned the pressure that the, the, the, a one to is on the, we know the west african states already agreed on a number of functions to, to pressure the phone to. and from, from that you have now suspended ties with media. will any of this make a difference? do you think, or i think here, what will be interesting is to see what happens in terms of russia and other books countries as well. no. the, the fact was this. so could you talk or the same week as the russia african summit in which russia re, uh, re accelerated and reinforced their attempt to for training themselves,
4:04 pm
nancy colonial power in africa. so the fact of the matter is it russia, uh, the other, the route or the rest itself, or even a country like, for example, so that uh, in russia is able to, from relatively quickly the operation of the government. perhaps in terms of loans, uh or, or other um assets, uh, exchanges. this will make it so that the government will most likely be able to stand up quite a few months. and i think the other thing that's important to point out is that these harris is quite aware that the european union and other non e u countries, likely u k. and so that's why i'm very concerned about these are because it is one of the largest migration areas. you know, it's a lot of essential ministry en route that takes people out of central in west africa to europe, goes through these here. so they, they do have quite a few uh,
4:05 pm
they do have quite a few points in which they can try to put some pressure as well on eco, los and on the friends and the you. so i think that the, the, the one size really trying to see how far they can go, how quickly russia can, can give them some money. and, and after all, we are in the context of the close to print crisis in which in general, humanitarian and development a, uh, to the i can confident has it has significantly decline. so the threat is, is not as strong as it would have been say 5 years ago. i've a little dying, international development consultant. thank you so much for your time in your analysis. this is now investigators in pakistan are trying to find out who was behind a suicide bombing at a political rally that killed more than 40 people and wounded. as many as 200 hundreds of mourners have attended the funerals of victims. police say at least
4:06 pm
a 1000 people were crowded into attendants near a market at an election at raleigh for a pro tell a bond cleric through sped suspects, have now been arrested, but no one has claimed responsibility for the attack. hundreds of follow was of the drum yet lemay. islam asked spotty, turned up for this sunday afternoon. raleigh. so many that the organizers put up extra 10 to the crowds. as they were announcing the arrival of the apache official, the boma detonated his device directly next to the stage where the leadership was sitting. close by when the blast occurred to when i arrived at the scene, i was met with a devastating sight, lifeless bodies scattered across the ground. people crying outside help amid the bloodstained surroundings. we'll see the people we're picking up the bodies on that road. well, i'm not sure what i did. victims of the bombing would take him to the local hospital and to a nearby to shower. no group has claimed responsibility for the attack,
4:07 pm
but officials pointing the finger at the local so called is lubbock state. great. although the gem yet they may is lamb as is a conservative islam is spotty. i us the keys. it's lead us. first of all over mom of hypocrisy for supporting the pakistani government hostile to the islamic state. last year i said it was behind a tax. so i'm really just call this link to the potty. officials issued this warning. it's almost as much as we can time is today's blast. an issue in the future, jeremy network has should again be targeted. we will be free to have our own protect ourselves. our value on the cd elite is set. the bombing was intended to weaken the potty head of elections expected lights. it makes you insisting that the tax of this nature will not den, that resolve pressure is taken to expand its armed forces by an estimated
4:08 pm
$2000000.00 troops. they'll make cars have approved a new load that will raise the recruitment costs of age from 27 to 1st, he is now official, say new recruits will not be sent to flights in ukraine, but some expects a new wave of men will try to leave russia to avoid being drafted, russia needs more experienced, meaning colder soldiers. at least that's how it's parliament justified raising the minimum and maximum recruitment ages for the army. until now, men between 18 and 27 were enlisted. in the future, they say louis centers in between 21 in the old world called upon military service easily. that was the plan a month ago. but the final law, the past only raised the upper limit. the minimum age will remain 18 years. the parliamentary defense chief called the necessary steps to create a better force we considered all the advantages and disadvantages and
4:09 pm
came to the decision that it's better this way. we always need to well prepared them all by mobilization, was of critics reading between the lines st. moscow needs more soldiers and in a hurry to push them in the system with at the moment of the russia is lacking troops was not because it's too much, we can go, but some of these resources need to come from somewhere. uh, zip us for examples of min over the age of 27 shippable for you. well now they're the ones who have been chosen as victims. i should've distributed the if i need to practice the shipment. the new law means russia's army could grow by an estimated 2000000 officials say the recruits will not be sent to fight and ukraine, but many are afraid. that's exactly the fate that awaits them. as reinforcements for the front line, the kremlin hasn't commented on the new law,
4:10 pm
referring questions to the defense ministry instead. but some parliamentarians are clearer to even refer to the fighting in ukraine as a war and not a special military operation on it. but this law was written for genuine mobilization and large scale as well for you. it already smells like lock scaling with i know it goes up up market with more which rights organization say more and more russian men are trying to escape should pieces should deal or is there more than a 1000 cases against disorders since mobilization began much element below the at the same time combined, it's clear that by no means are they all being investigated. i would look at them instead. for one thing, it's very costly. and also, the whole mobilization mechanism is running quite badly in the blow was in reality, the number of disorders is much higher and you guys could cut as boys. now even
4:11 pm
more men of recruitment age are likely to try to get out of russia as soon as they can. because once they've received their conscription order, they're required to stay in the country. since those orders are now sent out digitally, there's no escaping them anymore. sarah pod gong is a rush, the expert who what so the club foundation. so think tank here in berlin and sarah, thanks for your time today. russia says that extending its construction is what about recruiting more experienced slices? do you believe that? i think it's more in general about enlarging the group of possible got these versa is certainly preparing for a long term or so it definitely needs to find conscript draftees not only in the weeks a month, but possibly also in the upcoming years. and we're seeing now with this last x, this is just preparing for s hm. how will this go down in russia?
4:12 pm
i mean, we're here and you know, the likelihood that many russian men are likely to push back against this. and so what the law also does is just reducing or reducing the possibilities for adoption, the draft by increasing the fines reduction to drop. this is something that's pretty good down badly with a lot of fresh assemblies as touching, construction and drop has been quite common in russia. however, the draft maybe structure that have we have seen over the last one of the year in russian. it is something that is particularly targeting not the big urban centers are fresh or like small stores in petersburg, but more remote regions. so they have, i kind of trying to avoid a greater um, dissatisfaction since the really crucial ever as a freshman with the russian government. okay. so, so let's say that this is a fax is that they do recruits more soldiers. but even if russia has most soldiers,
4:13 pm
does it have enough military equipment for the soldiers to use? so probably yes, but it depends on, you know, how good or how will we will not find the so, which is what we've seen and exotic leads to last. we're healthy here is that russia has a lot of equipment that is probably not re, suspicions to equip everybody well. but as we see at the moment now, it's still enough to, you know, form a good word to defense and it's in the rushes fight against do crating and offensive. so i do think that there is enough equipment to basically hold on to wordpress at the moment have passed. if it's really you know, refresher, we have enough equipment to maybe go on the account to expensive after rush the prince of kansas. now i think that was a different question. i would be more skeptical here. okay. and what about to training are full of these near recruits? i mean, just because they're a slightly older,
4:14 pm
it doesn't mean that they going to be experience soldiers. so is that going to be something that will take a while? i honestly speaking, i don't really think that this argument is about recruiting more experience. so this, i think this is more in just a frame that person petitions tried to use to justify this law. because if we look at new, the structure of how russia is recruiting soldiers. the point where they were recruiting experience. so just because there were still experienced people that haven't been dropped in or come scripted to uh, the rushes um forces are actually over a lot of them already know within the armed forces or other term military structures. so i think it's more about, you know, marching in general and really about targeting for military experience groups. all right, and just very briefly, we've got 20 seconds. i mean, is this going to impact ukraine's ability to defend itself against russia?
4:15 pm
in the long term may be because of this, conscription level work over the long term of the next month and year. so probably won't affect the current onboarding and you've written counter offensive. but it is certainly a sign that ross has not ready to to bow down and really plans for a long term for a new crane and to really push for it for it's worth of check chips and ukraine. all right, sarah, problem from the club of foundation. think tank thanks so much and your up to date thanks for the interest the global economy, our portfolio dw business be here's a closer look at the project to analyze the flight for market dominance.
