9:03 pm
factors were undeterred by an ultimatum from west african speaker wants union to reinstate the countries democratically elected president mohammed funds on the news here has suffered too much. these here has taken responsibility. it wasn't just the military who took power, but the people who took power, what we have now and here is true democracy. the speaker wants had given the one to one week to stand down and warranted has a plan for a military intervention if necessary. as the deadline passed new years, military leaders, doug in fests and i've been that's the chair is faced with this trend of intervention, and that is becoming clearer through the action of neighboring countries. therefore, our air spaces closed from this day on for all aircraft until further notice. you can move and there will be an immediate and, and energetic response. how you do any attempts to enter our airspace as you get
9:04 pm
something in. the sky is around new share, quickly emptied, as the country brace for. what comes next? a peak. a last space has immense challenges. however, it proceeds with new shares, neighbors, burkina, faso, and molly, both ruled by military regimes backing the hunter. they say any military intervention in these air will be seen as an active gore worn out and joined by i'll be able to, well d as an analyst to studies the so hill region of advocates good to have you with this, i want to talk about eco was announcing this summit for this coming thursday to discuss the crisis in new j. or is there a consensus among equal wants members on launching military intervention know their, their peers not to be otherwise. beyond the questions of readiness, cassidy, they're most likely would have been an introduction of this task. uh some. this is
9:05 pm
when the deadline for the hunter expired. i think it's clear about their subdivision within echo aust, i'm the reality is that a new job has now joined the other 3 suspended members across so out of a block of 15 countries, there are only 11 countries right now that are um that are full members so, you know, there's no, there's no clear consensus in terms of the use of force. it's only really nigeria that has been the most um, the loudest and the most vocal about pushing for a military expansion. and let me just ask you about the credibility of eco why so as you said, that ultimatum the deadline has come and gone. it was yesterday, and there has been a military intervention. so the military hunter, basically called eco watches bluff, do they, does, he could was have any leverage now. so he wants to really still does have a leverage. and the reality is that nature is a big player. it is, you know,
9:06 pm
the largest economy on the continent and it's also in the region a country does seem to have quite a lot of legitimacy. you know, niger was not colonized by friends. so the, the art, some of the arguments that we've heard advanced and in the context of new share, such as is what's referred to the alleged damage and problematic relationship that they have with friends aren't relative to major and major has a quite good trade relationship with a new job, just quite symbolic for both countries. so as a major has a lot of credibility in this context. it also is a country that has recently gone through. i believe it's 3rd democratic transition in recent times. so it's a, it's a huge loan for nigeria to prove their legitimacy on the global stage. we have been seeing images of pro cool pro,
9:07 pm
one to rallies in new share. does that reflect how the people feel about the military take over of their government? are they in favor of what's happening as well? it's really difficult to know for sure. i mean the realities that in yeah, me is in the southern part of the country, although that is where the bulk of the population is. however, a we do look at recent um yeah, uh history. is it one would i think it's reasonable to drive it to inclusion that there is a popular support for the school. unfortunately, for me here, the norm is the time when there is an issue with the government and not democratic transitions. and unfortunately, the pain of the, the economic crisis and global recession and inflation has been felt all over the world has been very acute in the share. and when we add the other crises, such as the instability of the issues regarding arm, the armed, experienced people. uh, i think probably the south desperate until well, you know this, this is a possibility of change. and i think that also, uh,
9:08 pm
russian has been very successful in africa in terms of getting people to try to endorse the idea that they are a educational uh, power jody. let me pick up on that. we are hearing that and the motivation for some of the support has to do with the end of the french colonial history in new jersey . or also the fact that the united states has a strong counter terrorism military presence in new jersey here. um, is there any validity do that as i think there is. and i think that if we look at the situation very similar to some of the products and so in the middle east, whether it be rock rock, understand, or elsewhere. when we talked about this idea needing to win hearts and minds who really discussed these, the fact that there needs to be local buying. there needs to be also government ownership in any type of antique terrace. like because for people in the chair,
9:09 pm
it's not necessarily just for an elements that are coming and creating these problems and their communities. they might be people within their own communities. i mean, our decisions that people make perhaps because they are not feeling like the government is providing them the services or the future that they hold for. so this is, this is in fact, one of the reasons why when, when populations and much africa begin to look at a country like russia, which did not have policies in africa, did have colonies elsewhere in the period of the u. s. s. r. and some might say it has visions now, as they are not in africa, at least all extensively in africa, there is a feeling that, you know, i may said russia, it's a fair deal. it's something different and they feel like to, and maybe even bathroom group to some extent have been quite frank about the type of relationship they would like with the subject. populations give a perception here it is. um, it's remarkable that's for sure. i'll be on the wrong thing. we appreciate your
9:10 pm
analysis tonight. thank you. thank you. bye. sorry. let's take a look now at some of the other stories that are making headlines around the world . ukraine supposedly bought them is zalinski, has shared video and social media that he says it shows the aftermath of a russian missile attack on the city of park roles in eastern ukraine. at least 5 people died to destroy it, and dozens more were injured. so if you said the missiles did a residential area that included hotels, restaurants and shops, the philippines has the keys, china's coast guard, and spring water, cannon edits vessels near the sprightly islands. the islands are disputed territory and the south china sea. manila says this footage, released by its coast guard, shows a chinese boat blasting water towards a filipino military supply. the south korea says that they will evacuate about $3600.00 people from the world discount jambert. read because of a looming type food. the scales will be bust off the camp site to alternative

in northwestern slovenia. the flooding m. lance lines have const enormous damage. the entire communities have been devastated. the raging waters almost completely wiped out for volume in northern slovenia. have apparently, it's an apocalypse, a total disaster o. c. we. unfortunately, since we're dealing with the same trouble more, there's nothing we can do. me is all, it's very sad. on monday residents, we're busy clearing away the mind revealing the full extent of the destruction a to so we've just looked severe damage and the enormous financial loss has ruined for the damage amounts of the 10s. if not hundreds of millions of years, it will take a large amount of money to restore everything, maybe on no error. even though the rains have lit up, rescue workers i know struggling with the threat of lance lines,

not just in slovenia, but also here in the southern austrian village of south nick when i m. samsung. the risk of mud avalanches is now especially high sewage. i've sold the balcony side collapsing, but we are powerless to stop it. it is hope that plastic tarps, like these will help prevent moorland slides. hundreds of people have been evacuated and brought to emergency shelters, just in case slovenia has asked the u. s. nato for aid, especially with technical devices and military helicopters, as well as several pre fabricated breaches up to 40 meters long to help access regions that are now cut off by dozens of migrants are missing, feared dead after 2 boats capsized off the italian islands of y producer at the weekend, the rescues were made difficult by the rough stormy seas is the mediterranean. as you see right there, the number of migrants trying to make it to europe has searched over the last year
9:16 pm
with many coming from sub saharan africa, making the journey to libya or tanisha to try to cross the mediterranean in extremely dangerous conditions. often in overcrowded boats. and the people making these treasures, journeys put their faith in the hands of criminal migrant smugglers. our next report looked at what the smugglers do and why they do as a rickety boat overloaded with people in the mediterranean. images like this have become commonplace in the last decade. as the list of tragic mass drownings continues to grow. why so many people on such old boats in a word, money smugglers charged people thousands of heroes for a place on a boat crowding them on means more profit. using old boats reduces costs. the revenue from a single trip can be in the millions. many of those who do the dirty work of smuggling or migrants themselves,
9:17 pm
but most of the money ends up in the hands of international criminal gangs. estimate revenues from smuggling at $3.00 to $6000000000.00 euros per year. that's based on tens of thousands of people paying an average of 2500 years per person, so much more up to $7000.00 euros each. the crossing is just one piece of the puzzle. smugglers provide a range of legal services before and after all at extremely high prices. the risk is assumed by the passengers. smugglers are very rarely caught. from many migrants from further south, the trip can start with false documents. an arduous desert crossing often follows by the time people make it to the next stage, they are often out of cash. criminals exploit them as they try to save money to go on with their journey. some migrants who make it across or who take the
9:18 pm
overland roads through turkey and south eastern europe are packed into poorly ventilated trucks. they risk running out of oxygen. well, smugglers drive them across borders. many countries in the region have put up fencing and petrol. there borders to keep migrants out of the smuggling is profitable. precisely because it is illegal. the people crossing with smugglers have no legal option to immigrate. if they did, they can take a flight for a few 100 years. last thing a matter of hours. instead they pay thousands for a journey that takes weeks or longer and costs many of them their lives. of the pull in hopes of barker with the border violence monitoring network. she joins be denied from scope here in north macedonia, and it's good to have you with this then you work for the border violence monitoring that work just to help violence. our european boarders for
9:19 pm
a legal mind. well, thank you. first of all for having me on. uh yeah, definitely this is a trend that we've been observing as proliferating. i'm less today since 2017, which was about people being picked up being in many cases, torture strip naked, a 1st degree back across the borders, but not being able to claim asylum, which was not. this is systematic process that's happening across the so called western vocal. great in a way that we kind of divide to responsibility to one single country or one single member state. but anyway, that the responsibility lies. but the use, the, as you said, is it's a way to put us to this was the name of the situation of smuggling. because the, it is impossible to move safely, which creates the humanitarian situation. the smugglers all profiting from. i thought to be causing that as well. what we've monitored is that people are increasing the dying drowning in the mediterranean during push, fast appeals to learn what the latest examples about those types of conditions of
9:20 pm
being uncovered. do you think that european union authorities do you think that they have the political will to stop these human traffickers? or i think identities like pete also has an example. i mean, lighthouse reports did an investigation which clearly shows that the smugglers would not the 9 objections that were arrested, often this involved from, from the ship. but what actually people in libya that would lead with the eastern vivian or ortiz, and who had facilitated arrival from syria, had licensed the boat to navigate in vivian waters. i'm actually connected to a leadership that the us funding billions of years into as way of externalizing migration control and the same the government to this. yeah. so while you is coming out packages of millions of dollars to countries that are willing the pub traipsing human rights violations, they kind of say that they all have the fiscal will to stop. the whole thing keeps going to move into the house and smugglers. well, let me get you to our top story tonight is about the crisis in new share. and we
9:21 pm
know that in africa and you have states that are failing their publics. one reason why people are willing to, to migrate and leaving and come to europe. what is your message to the political leaders across africa? what should they be doing so that their people don't want to pick up and lead? and that's a very complex question. i think people will always migrate, i think, regardless of crisis, i mean this crisis might be happening now, but the climate crisis and as incoming and people will be forced to move. so the plan is really what can we do as a european states to create space and legal parkway. so people can be without risking that that you haven't seen headlines of smuggling guides, but ukrainian stop because you creating and such safe and legal talk. but it's not, it was possible for that done. so we need to replicate that kind of model for old people's eating sites. do you know there is no unified margaret migration policy in
9:22 pm
the european union? that's been a problem now for for years. what do you say the, to your opinions you say i'm, we also have a right to expect countries to protect their borders. a dozen line to protect the vote isn't and that's violating is national and you need a human mind slow. we haven't asylum system in rights and black like people have the right to have. so individualized assessment to appeal that decision i to have the right to remain in the country until the appeal has gone through. and that is the system that is in line with the international and union human rights. no, i'm not what we need to respect. so protecting board is needs to come in line with respecting fundamental rights of people seeking safety. who barker with the border violence monitoring network. we appreciate your time in your insights tonight to thank you. thank you. let's take a look now and some more of the headlines around the world. britain has begun moving asylum seekers onto
