the the, the clock is ticking and these air after the allister of elected president mohammed by zoom on sunday, a community of neighboring countries issued an ultimatum against the cool leaders get out by next week or we'll go in. and the end of the week is fast approaching the unclear what chase a military intervention could take. but the same as to be said about a diplomatic settlement at this point. internationally, the push has caused grave concern about the security and stability of an important western ally in the house. but inside the country, many are unworried. today on these years independence day, hundreds of protesters took to the streets and the capital in the on maine to express their support of the home to nicole for elation. berlin, and this is the day the
12:03 am
we strongly support the very strong leadership of equal was on the share was i bought a lead. we were surprised by their eagerness to condemn the seizure of power by the national council for the safe guardian of the homeland. we are looking for the restoration of the constitutional order in these year. you need more people are joining and we will protest against all these echo was countries. and anyone that wants to impose thing, you mean? i don't popular measures on the chair. the work that he could watch is doing and the statements it's made are important strong and have our support. also on the day i'll be a tough choice to save. it's environment, arriving wires from the injury addict or threatening it's pristine coastline. and
12:04 am
one of its main likelihood, and i did the usual with the locals from the village used to come here and blah, blah, blah, still got tons of back, then everything was green. and you should move on to it was like a forest or so it's like the amazon i'm up. i'm in billy then, but now that you can see for yourself, yes, according to this as well. i'm gonna go fairly. it's good to have you with us. it's an independence day, like no other. and these years history, hundreds of people turned down on the capital knee on may in support of the military junta that recently allocated president mohammed by sue the crew. leaders have now moved to band french broadcasters, france $24.00 and radio friends that are national. this is one example of the anti french sentiments that has been steadily rising since the punch on the streets and in the presidential palace. many are now looking to russia as a potential partner, independence felicia,
12:05 am
that's what supposes of the military one. so say that defending on the anniversary of new jersey, independence from from hundreds gavin and the capitals main square to protest. weston and regional sanctions in response to the recent to they also denounced the threats of military intervention from west africa's regional alliance economic community of west african states. oh echo us they just as you need more people are joining and, and we will protest against all these echo was countries and anyone that wants to impose new maine and on popular measures on new share event. let me use it on sunday at cost gave the hunter rule is one week to transfer power back to the democratic re elected. president mohammed visited and asked it in last week to the but the cruise lead, a general up to rough minus jani, has hinted at a possible compromise. supporting flowed limits your buses. once the tense emotions
12:06 am
have gone, we can insure the conditions for a steady transition within a relatively short deadline that the general election and especially a better approach, you know, fight against terrorism, and saving a country from economic and social pain. the not the lead going through the duties many in new share blame fronts for that's paying their new share and shaved independence. 63 years ago, per one to demonstrate to say the former claudio power has continued to exploit and asia, a resource origination with one of the world's porous populations. the failure of sciences nutri presence image at the end is limited. insurgency has also left some dissolution. now, many supporters of the queue, hoping the country will turn towards russia in the hopes of finding a new allies. we can now speak about these developments and these air with alex
12:07 am
finds he's the head of the africa program at the chatham house thing tank. welcome back to the w. it's good to see you. now we just heard one protest or saying that the country was, and i'm quoting him, they're breaking free from the grip of colonialism. is that really what's happening? and these are right now says plenty anti french sentiment in these yeah, it's wipers spread across the saw how. so that's not a surprise to here. and um, fake news and, and, and trolling, including 5 by russia has been encouraging it. but um, even without it that as a result of skepticism about the front, so, so the, that, that's for sure. what i'm less convinced about is that there's widespread support for russia. i, yes, there are flags being brandished in, in demonstrations. but i don't know if that means that there's a toilet ground swell, wishing russia to be involved in this, in this situation. then why are we hearing and,
12:08 am
and seeing people with russian flags and saying that, you know, this is something someone that we would rather turn to is this the consequence of misinformation? how do you explain that as well as a better, but it is tied to anti west and ism, and particularly anti being anti french. and so one way to, to, to be on to french's, to, to, to, to be opposite and therefore, kind of advocate russia. but russia hasn't invested into an inter needs. yeah, it has invested in trolling and misinformation. and i think what this is more reflective of, of frustration over many years of the kind of friendship engagement. so again, i, my analysis of this is, this isn't necessarily a groundswell, a support for, for russia. it is more about protesting at the, the, you know, the failures of, of, of west an engagement in the past and looking for,
12:09 am
for alternatives. not necessarily russia per se. yeah. what's the saying? the enemy of my enemy is my friend. i want to move on to something that we heard the cool leaders say today he is signaling a willing us to talk about a transition towards democracy. now if it's not power, he's after, what is his end game here, or is he's and we lying. i said that's a lot more significant. and i think in that the, the koolaid and general she's son has been indicating now that he may consider a short time table. and so i think this is a reflection of the pressure that he's on to buy from the ico boss. sanctions, the pulling out of, of international supports of, of news. yeah. and the threats of military action by the economic community in west african state. so regional body and to be honest has been part of the plan,
12:10 am
was to look at a way of giving a offer i'm for this military jump to and so equal was, had been considering that some shows a very short transition period printing election might be the route forward. now the key issue that remains is what happens to the current president present resume . does he remain president of a short transition period and then stand for mandates again for an election, we'll have to see the deadline for the junction. so to make a definitive move uh, in terms of supporting a transition ending the who is this sunday. so the clock is ticking. what do you think is going to happen? come sunday as well. a plan in a, in beef as a car wash, the regional body is to try and find some sort of a friend negotiated settlement. um the, the, the, the,
12:11 am
the plan see is military intervention. but i don't think that's how i got to happen immediately, but it is being planned for the magenta, i think understands the eco was, is different now than it was last year for example. and, and that the military intervention and very sharp sanctions are very much on the table and find the sanctions already starting to affect the new year's economy. so i think the next week is going to be really critical. but the honda also knows that a cause is not necessarily on the same page when it comes to this specifically also when it comes to a military intervention, are they taking this as serious as it was? would like them to but i think it was yesterday that
12:12 am
the juices in west africa, all united together saying that they would stand in solidarity with news. yeah. the frightened, they're not used to the economic community or west african states saying that they will military intervene, the countries of a cross need to fulfill and, and, and a by the protocol and governance and security of the region. and i think they have miscalculated because present to no boot the president of nigeria, he's also the chair of equal was, she's allergic to purchase. he has been detained by miller treat dictates as he does not like them. and nod year is the regional military power in the whole region . and so if it puts a my mind to it, i think you can see a coalition of nigeria leading the governor being involved cooked at bar ivory coast. also, being boat probably sent a goal, that's not something that the purchase and news you would wish to confront. hence
12:13 am
why i think we're beginning to see a softening of that position. talking about the transition was alec find chatham house. thank you so much. thank you very much. i for days now, while and confrontations happened, rocking lebanon's biggest camp for palestinian refugees now. lebanon has issued a warning to the palestinian authorities, leader. most of us bring an end to enter factional finding in this camp, or we will send in our troops and the last few days, the classes between members of a boss for a task party and to as long as the organizations have claimed the lives of 13 people and dozens more have been injured. the fighting began in b a. l. chill where refugee camp in the lebanese city of seemed on the weekends, directed after a top accuse is little mess of shooting dead. one of its military generals in the
12:14 am
camp about 50000 people live there and several 1000 or estimated to have taken refuge from the fighting in a nearby mosque. in a few way is the largest of the 12 post indian cams, in lebanon. when i tried to is our correspondent and lebanon and joins we now. mohammed what is behind these classes or what? this is not the 1st round of classes, and most probably won't be the last. since dr. and posting in militants have been fighting over the control of the largest and most crowded senior effigy comp. i'll find it henry in south and live in a class just broke out over the weekend between the main stream function and the hotline. it's almost, it was old triggered by a freight between the militants and, and it's on this pick up. and that was followed by the summation of
12:15 am
a major front of that security official and 3 of his companions in an ambush and the fuel, the violence, at least 11 were killed. and more than 40, injured, into fighting lebanon has issued a warning to the boss. now does he have much or any control over what goes on in the count? well this, this sounds like a strong statement from the been, he's a government, but it's, it's hardly applicable, like without passwords for the us, the live. and he's old sort of these years ago and in many occasions, to take any necessity, measures to control the security inside the palestinian refugee accounts. but this has never been really a discussed an in depth on where there's already a deep political, a divide. that the statement from the government came off to the just outside the walls of the comm, shopping of insurance at several of the soldiers where the army set check points to
12:16 am
control access for 4 people. and even though the army warned that it would respond and possibly fire back at the geography is so complicated, the comp is so crowded. it is controlled by a have on the, on the finest in the, in the functions of any confrontation of this, the window require a huge political decision and would destroy to comp and put tens of thousands of civilians. a danger. let's talk about these tens of thousands of civilians who are already in a vulnerable position. what is happening to the refugees that have already started fleeing the violence in the camp? as well, according to the united nations relief and work agency owner. well, who supports palestinians and provide basic services inside the accounts? at least 2000 people have been displaced by the fighting,
12:17 am
and have been at sheltering in many mosques inside and dried outside the accounts. now, some of them lost their homes and will not be able to go back. i was wondering why that has not yet committed to rebuild the destroyed homes and the economic crisis in, in live on, on. that will make it difficult for the august indian refugees to finance reconstruction independently as an an economic crisis that has, of course, been exacerbated by that huge blast. 3 years ago we are approaching the 3 year anniversary of that explosion in the port of bam. rude. are the victims any closer to seeing those responsible held to account when they call the the, the, the short answer is no. on the eve of the 3rd anniversary of the beta report explosion that there are no added fees. there's no investigation,
12:18 am
and those particular defendants in the judiciary has blocked the problem completely and paralyzed the work of the investigating judge. whether you might think that the political disputes of a stand at the limits off an explosion of that this magnitude maybe in the rest of the world, but not independent. well, how much right to our 11 non corresponding thank you so much. i are the 3 days in el salvador haven't conducting a massive security operation as part of a crack down on gangs in the country. thousands of troops and police officers have been deployed to the province of calvin. yes, where the government says members of 2 gangs are hiding out the battery, all the seo tool and m as the basic gang control, much of the country and the substantial part of its basic economic activity. salvatore's government has attained over 70000 people since declaring
12:19 am
a state of emergency a year and a half ago. that of seeing the countries to spend some constitutional rights and set up courts for mass trials. we can speak about the situation and now salvatore with dr. christine wage is a specialist and international and comparative politics of latin america and has focused much overwork on el salvador. welcome to the w. net. what exactly is president kelley doing income by us? thank you for having me. nicole at present presentable. kelly says that they've erected what he refers to as a security fence around the department of combine. yes, which is constituted of about $88000.00 troops in total, $7000.00 and those military and about a 1000 police officers as they are roaming the streets of the various cities and condones, trying to re out game members. el salvador has been under a state of emergency now since last of march,
12:20 am
if i'm not mistaken. how is that affected life in the country? yeah. well, i suppose it depends on who you talk to. i mean, some people know it's a significant reduction in violence and their municipalities and the neighborhoods that they live in for other people who have been caught up in the dragnet or have loved ones who've been caught up in a dr. net, or people who oppose the kelly's policies it's, it's been quite a different story. it really likes to present himself, not only inside the country, but especially on the international stage as a young disruptor. but really looking at the details of how he governs. he is a modern autocrat, he's intimidating depress, purging, judges, shrinking parliament. and still he seems to be incredibly popular. do people not mind the crumbling of democracy as long as the gangs are off the street? yeah, i think this is really a challenge for those of us who are analyst of looking at solve it or politics
12:21 am
because of course the deterioration of the rule of law is incredibly disturbing. that backsliding of democracy is incredibly problematic. but i think one of the keys to understanding his incredible approval rating is understanding the continuum of violence in el salvador and really talking about a population that feels that they've been played by back game violence for the past 2 decades. and this also on the hills of an incredibly violent civil war in the 1980s as well. now that democratic backsliding comes, you know, with, with some sort of a more stable security situation. but the fact that he's chipping away of democratic institutions and, and all that, how dangerous is that for the development of all, salvador? i think it's extremely dangerous for the development of el salvador. i'll solve it or has to fall from a multi party state to where we is really now largely
12:22 am
a single party state um, because party and website is controls almost all branches of government meaningful kelly controls of effectively all branches of government. and the legislature is legislative agenda is on checked right because of his legislative majority. and as you mentioned, he's been able to use that to pass the number of laws onto purge um, you know, public officials. and this is really dangerous precedent for all solve a doors democracy. the insecurity in the country is driven millions out of el salvador, seeking a safer haven north has become his heart hand against the gangs on anything to stop this accident. what's interesting is that we are seeing still large numbers of salvadorans leaving el salvador, right. i think i saw a report today that said that salvadorans for the 4th best populace refugee population and mexico at the moment. um and so we know that people are still coming are still leaving el salvador really for mexico and for the united states. despite
12:23 am
