7:02 am
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, 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 need me to express their support of the home to nicole fairly chamberlain. and this is the day the
7:03 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 safeguarding of the homeland. we are looking for the restoration of the constitutional order. indeed, here you need more people are joining and we will protest against all these attributes. countries under anyone that wants to impose then you remain until him popular measures on the chair and the work that he could watch is doing a hand the statements 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 adrian to or
7:04 am
threatening it's pristine coastline and one of its main likelihood. and i did the show with the locals from the village, used to come here level plausible. that sounds like the end. everything was green and you should move on to it was like a forest for foods like the amazon and really then, but now that you can see for yourself, yes, quite a bit. there's a lot of people 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 out on the capital in the 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,
7:05 am
independence felicia, 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 the share event that may use it on sunday at cost gave the hunter rule as one week to transfer power back to the democratic re elected president mohammed visited and asked it in last week's crew. the but the crews lead a general up to rough minus jani, has hinted at
7:06 am
a possible compromise. supporting flowed new mushroom buses. once the tents and motions are gone, we can insure the conditions for a steady transition within a relatively short deadline. 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 and new shad blamed france for that's paying their new share and shaved independence. 63 years ago pro, when to demonstrate to say the form acquire new 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 que, hoping the country will turn towards russia in the hopes of finding
7:07 am
a new allies. we can now speak about these developments and these air with alex finds he's the head of the african 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, 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,
7:08 am
in this situation. then why are we hearing and, and seeing people with russians 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 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,
7:09 am
the failures of western engagements in the past and looking for, 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. it says that's a lot more significant. and i think in that the, the crew leader 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 the by from the cross sanctions, the pulling out of, of international supports of, of these. yeah. and the threats of military action by the economic community,
7:10 am
west african state. so regional body and to be honest has been part of the plan, was to look at a way of giving a off rent 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 root 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 co was the regional body is to try and find some sort of
7:11 am
a friend negotiated settlement. um, the, the, the, the, 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 jump into, i think understands the eco was, is different now than it was i, uh, 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
7:12 am
the juices in west africa, all united together saying that they would stand in solidarity with news. yeah. the frightened then 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,
7:13 am
coastal slipping bolt, probably sent a goal. that's not something that the purchase and news you would wish to confront . hence why i think we're beginning to see a softening of that position, talking about the transition, the 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 weekend. i
7:14 am
directed after a top accuse is little mess of shooting dead. one of its military generals in the 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 in lebanon and joins me now. mohammed what is behind these classes? this was, this is not the 1st round of classes, and most probably won't be the last since dr. a post. any and militants have been fighting over the control of the largest and most crowded senior effigy capital findings, henry in south and living on plus, was broke out over the weekend between the main stream function for the had a hard line just almost it was old to goes by a freight between the militants and, and as long as they got. and that was followed by the summation of
7:15 am
a major front of that security official and 3 of his companions in an ambush and the fuel, the violence, at least 11 at, were killed in more than 40 insurance in the fighting 11. on his issue, a warning to the boss, now does he have much or any control over what goes on in the count? well, this is just sounds like a strong statement from the bodies, a government, but it's, it's hardly applicable like us at the, for the, the end of the needs or thought 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 in, in depth on where there's already a deep political, a divide. that the statement from the government came off to a just outside the walls of the comm shop. now,
7:16 am
the injured at several of the many soldiers where the army set check points to control access for 4 people. and even though the army warned that it would respond and the boss will be fire back, that the geography is so complicated. the comp is so crowded, it is controlled by a have on the, on. i'll just in the, in the functions of any confrontation of this, not a window require a huge political decision and would destroy the comp and put a tens of thousands of that stuff against a danger. let's talk about these tens of thousands of civilians. we're already in a vulnerable position. what is happening to the refugees that have already started fleeing the violence in the camp? or well, according to the united nations relief and work agency owner, well, who supports palestinians and provide basic services inside the accounts,
7:17 am
at least 2000 people have been displaced by the fighting. and i've been at sheltering in many marks inside and right outside the cons. now, some of them lost their homes and that will not be able to go back as well. that has not yet committed to rebuild the distort homes and the economic crisis in, in live on, on, that we make it difficult for the august indian refugees to finance reconstruction independently as 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 bay. rude. are the victims any closer to seeing those responsible alto account when they call the the, the short answer is no. on the eve of the 3rd anniversary of the beta report
7:18 am
explosion that there are no at us these, there's no investigation. and those difficult interference 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 this magnitude maybe in the rest of the world, but not end up going on. well, i'm gonna try to our 11 and correspond, and thank you so much. i a sore 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. el
7:19 am
salvador, as government has attained over 70000 people since declaring 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 of our work 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, president kelley says that they've erected what he refers to as a security fence around the department of combined. yes. which is constituted of about 8 the of $8000.00 troops in total, $7000.00, and those military and about a 1000 police officers as they are ruining the streets of the various cities and candles. trying to read out game members. el salvador has been under
7:20 am
a state of emergency now since last of march, 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?
7:21 am
yeah, i think this is really a challenge for those of us who are analyst and looking at solve it or politics 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 fact 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 at 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
7:22 am
or has to fall from a multi party state to where we is really now, largely a single party state. because his party in web us ideas controls almost all branches of government, meaning who 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 the 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,
7:23 am
are still leaving el salvador, really for mexico and for the united states. despite his much touted successes under his state of exception, christine wade of washington college, we appreciate your input. thank you so much for your time. thank you. are all being in southern europe has become increasingly popular with torres are drawn to its picturesque lakes and beaches, but up to one 3rd of the coast is now affected by a rose and driven by both climate change and human behavior. locals worry that the rising adriatic sea is slowly destroying the landscape and their livelihoods dw funny for star reports from the qu, navina tyler reserve albini, as the goons in the north of the country seem like paradise. the demo says she comes here to work. he's been a fisherman for 40 years, inquisitive find the fish population has started to decline. he sense it's just
