[000:00:00;00] the news you are gained independence of the 9060 since then for cruise have shaken the west african country. and yet this year in the eyes of the west remains a rare point of political stability on the content. but what about the latest crude number 5? last week, earlier this year, the us a couple of this year, a model of democracy is also a pivotal partner in america's war on here to night, the stakes their high for new year, it's neighbors. and for the security of a super pop, i break off from berlin. this is the day the, the for the forces of

a foreign power are ready to attack new share. and it's people in coordination with tech, a was an armed terrorist groups i think for now that is not a likely way to have copies of reaching out and a pre deployment of forces to participation this war has begun into countries of central africa. fact that the deadlines stopped present to echo with troops thus far haven't read an attempt to go ended essentially needs please give me sherry and come to has one. this is up to this point. also it coming up more and more africans find themselves in the hands of human traffickers. does it have to be this way? a question tonight for you or? and there's always going to be a demand for the safe havens and the job opportunities that you have promises.

the more europe tries to shots it's borders rather than manage its borders. the more people smuggling in the business of human trafficking rises to our viewers watching on cbs in the united states and to all of you around the world. welcome. we begin today with the crew inside new share and the threat of military intervention from l saw last week. the military and this year seized power, detaining president mohammed buzzing, a crew that drew international condemnation and the threat. the military intervention by echo was the west african economic and monetary union on sunday new shares military home to ignored a demand, but you called was to reinstate the president. it was has imposed sanctions on the military industry here. and it's called a summit, an emergency summit for this thursday. well, there are us and european interests at risk in this crisis. more than 1000 us

soldiers are stationed in the country. washington has spent half a $1000000000.00 training. there's very an armed forces in counter terrorism against as long as the extreme is there's, there's also a major transit route for migrant heading for europe. will this latest to change any of this? for now, the military junta is in control and it is warning the outside world not to intervene too fast and the rest of intervention being prepared and the neighboring country. new. jerry and aerospace has closed from today. the 6th of august 2023 for all aircraft until further orders and all attempts to violate the missionary and national air space will be the object of a forceful, an instantaneous response. for energy as companion, the window of opportunity is definitely still open. we believe that the addition step aside and allow present presume to resume his duties tomorrow today, tomorrow, any time in the near future,

i don't want to put an assessment on when that window would be closed. other than to say that i'm using diplomacy to achieve this objective is our top priority with respect to new share and we continue to pursue it or the one to bring in. now bureaus, you know, he's a military analyst with the foundation for defense of democracies. he was in bed with us and canadian forces in racking up dana, stan, it joins us from medford, new jersey tonight. it's good to have you read this, the us government, the european union, european governments. they are watching the situation in this year very closely. for our viewers, you may not be familiar with the situation to tell us why is instability in this year? why is it a problem for the us? and it's alex or from a keller, from a regional perspective. african, the sub saharan africa has been sliding into chaos, largely due to there's been multiple crews in the region and also some very vibrant . jo,

hottest been server insurgencies from both al qaeda and the as long as the state. and for that 2nd reason, think your hot us insurgencies me shares become one of the main hopes for fighting for monitoring and battling these groups, particularly since molly's crew. 2 years ago the french were kicked out from there . molly has descended into chaos. much of the northern and central part of molly are under just let us controlled or out of reach of the government. and the us has a major base there where it's conducting drawing and operations and other air operations to monitor these groups and providing information to the countries in the region. and with this to that, um, all of that is in jeopardy. yeah. what happens then? they'll, if we do see k, us, i'm sustained in these here what, what, what can the united states do?

i mean, it's invested, bought half a $1000000000.00 in training new jerry and armed forces, and is it going? i have to just walk away from that. it's nice to speak to us options in the region unless it wants to insert it's military, which given the debacles in a rack and the last can to stand and the color, the problems that the us is having with back and recreating government against russia. he's gonna be very difficult for the us to get militarily involved in france. would have to get involved. they're just the allies in the region are dwindling. and if the new share in government decides to reject the us from that date, there's 2 bases where the us are operating from there. but one of them is a major tub for activity. i see that there's very little that the us can do and must have, wants to get his hands dirty and get involved in a war and sub saharan africa where it has very little assets and very little ways

in perhaps there. um you could. ready walk rebid, countries like nigeria and, and some others. but i think the, i think this is very, very difficult situation for the us. it's options are limited. it would probably have to leave the country of the order to, to so it has ordered that the food was ordered plants to leave. and we'll see how that plays out. this could be a foreign policy, p r. disaster for it for the united states just earlier this year. you have the us secretary of state saying that you have was a model of democracy in africa. and now you've got washington. i'm describing the situation in this year, but not using the word could. how did you read the, is this washington engaged in a, a bit of denial. it's a bit of denial and also if they do use the term code, it does trigger. it does limit some of us options in what it can and can't do inside of the chair,

militarily and diplomatically. so it's holding out us officially, the state department particularly are holding out hope that the coo leaders will relent, and the old government is stored. but i think the, the bill, the chances of this window, the l. e. and at some point if the, you know, if the crew doesn't suddenly dissolve. busy or fall apart, that us officials are going to have to recognize good faith to complete that this school is permanent. the united states has spent over half a $1000000.00 training, new jersey and armed forces in counterterrorism efforts. if there were to be military action, but it was against new share, i've been reading that equal was, would expect the united states to bankroll that with the united states. the bank would financing a war against soldiers that it just trained some of the now apparently the, the, as the soldiers and the cool were part of the presidential guards,

which were confined to the center. and many of the us backed soldiers who were us, trained soldiers were on him. the hinterlands actually doing work against your hottest groups. so it's possible that they can organize those forces that have been trained in west closer ties and, and bank roll them. but you know, a lot of money has been spent here. how far does this administration want to get involved in, in sub saharan african politics in order to, you know, i, i think it'd be very, a very difficult, very risky move for the, this administration to put possibly billions of dollars out on the line for the chances maybe $5050.00 in having success in defeating the script, the cooling this year. you know, it follows cruise molly and burkina faso, and we've seen the same time russian influence growing there. and there are reports that there may even be wagner mercenary forces. now involved in this year, i'm, is this

a scenario that are we going to see in new jersey or something that happened in molly's just repeat itself? that is certainly possible. father's has been entrenching itself in throughout africa. poor vladimir approved in the president of russia recently visited there, and it has been courting the african countries. wagner certainly has the ability to probably within the chair to put thousands of troops on the ground. at some point. i'm seeing a lot of pro russian and even pro 5 minutes and to man, even in pro crew pope right tests that are popping up throughout the capitol. so you know this, this is another layer, this is the russian expansion within africa is certainly a problem with united states and for the west. and this is something that you need to keep an eye on as we go forward. yeah. and not to mention the growing chinese

influence in africa as well as you have from the foundation for defense of democracies. bill's going to have you on the show. we appreciate the analysis. thank you. always the pleasure. thank you very much. dozens of people are missing, following to ship wrecks off. the tell you the island of love to do so over the weekend, the rescues were made even more difficult by what you see right here. rough, stormy seas and the but it's raining. the number of migrants trying to make it to europe, the number of migrants find to make it to europe, has searched over the last year. many come from sub saharan africa. they make the journey to libya or denisia, and then they try to cross the mediterranean extremely dangerous conditions, often in overcrowded boats. the people making these treacherous journeys, they put their feet in the hands of smugglers. our next report looks at what the smugglers do. and why they do a rickety boat overloaded with people in the

mediterranean images like this have become common place. and 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 reduced as 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. but most of the money ends up in the hands of international criminal gangs. how much money? it's impossible to say exactly, but european police agencies estimate revenues from smuggling a $3.00 to $6000000000.00 euros per year. that's based on tens of thousands of people paying an average of 2500 year olds 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 overland roads through turkey and south eastern europe are packed into poorly ventilated trucks. they risk running out of oxygen while smugglers drive them across borders. many countries in the region have put up fencing and petrol there borders to keep migrant 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 pool in hopes of barker with the border violence monitoring network. she joins be denied from scope here in north macedonia. and i have, it's good to have you with this. do you work for the border violence monitoring that work? just to have violence or european boarders for a legal mind? well, thank you. first of all for having me on. yeah, definitely. this is a trend that we've been observing as pretty good for a saying, 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 assign them how much was the amount,

this is systematic process that's happening across the circle west in boca great in a way that we kind of divide the responsibility to one single country or one single member state. but anyway, that responsibility lies. but the use, the, as you said, is it's a wonderful to see 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 death as well. what we've monitored is that people are increasing the dying drowning in the mediterranean during pushed back, and he lost his own. was the latest examples by those types of conditions of 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 again, if you take it off as an example, i mean, lighthouse reports did an investigation which clearly shows that the smugglers were not the 9 objections that were arrested off that disembarking from the ship. so

actually people in libya that would lead with the eastern vivian or ortiz, 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 a way of externalizing migration control and the same the government she lives here . so while you is coming out packages of millions of dollars to countries that are willing, the perpetrators and human rights violations, they kind of say that they all have the physical will to stop forcing people to move into the hands of some of those. well, let me ask you to our top story tonight is about the crisis in new share. and we know that in africa 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?

not to 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 is 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 leave without risking that. you haven't seen headlines of smuggling guys but ukrainian stop because ukrainians have safe and legal talk, but it's not, it was possible for that done. so we need to replicate that kind of model for people seeking safety. you know, there is no unified margaret migration policy in 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 union human rights law. we have an asylum system in rights and by 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 for barker with the border violence monitoring network. we appreciate your time in your insights tonight to thank you. thank you. the cobit 19 pandemic locked down bunch of the world and it slammed the brakes on those morning and evening commute. in march 2020 hundreds of millions of workers were suddenly told don't come into the office, zoom from home. instead. the technology behind the made removed, working possible, almost fundamentally altering we're and how we work and even what we, we're to work or we don't wear,

but it may have been too good to be true now. so you can just tell us employees to come back to the office at least twice a week. change comes after a drop and demand resume services. following the end of the pin, demi zooms in news in the spring in the on hinge cliff. he's vice president, a constellation research as a technology research and advisory firm that's based in silicon valley. the honest going to have you with this. um, what are we to make of this um, has, has that, are we looking at a case of zoom fatigue here? it's no, it's certainly there that's a little bit of it, but you know, the zoom certainly brought in. i said in the remote work revolution made it very possible for people to work remotely. but they've also been under a lot of pressure by competition. you know, so microsoft with, with teams and other providers that you know, have jumped into the fray and bracket, maybe every edge they can get an executives believe it. people in the office are still most productive. you know, that the end,

it doesn't always say that. and so uh yeah it's, it's, um, yeah, it's an interesting turn of events, but i don't believe it's indicative of, of the broader shift to a hybrid work. where are we right now with that? because we are seeing, even, you know, the tech companies google alphabet, you know, they're towing workers. you guys need to come back into the office. i mean, it's almost as if the, the fundamental change in the way we work that we were talking about in 2020, 2021. it's almost like that didn't happen as well. it typically if you look at the data remote work, there's only about 5 or 6 percent of the workforce. and now it's, it's gone back down from almost half to right around 18 and 19 percent. so a change did happen and it's still here. and you're seeing the top tier companies are bringing some of the people back and they really want um, you know, written very hyper competitive times,

especially in the tech business. but 2nd tier companies are finding that they can get incredible workers for lower wages in different parts of the country and different parts of the world. and i mean, i hear from, you know, large fortune 500 companies, global 2000 firms. just saying, i can get a broader, more diverse set of talent this way. if i'm willing to accept and not everyone's gonna come into the office every day. so receive up this whole spectrum of people of companies that have gotten rid of their, in their facilities entirely. there's large companies that actually have done that . and then there's, there is a shift back, especially in hyper competitive industries where executives believe that workers are more productive even though workers where they crave that flexibility. and some of the data says that they are not, there are more productive when they have a choice to where, where, where to work and what we are seeing. definitely a more pushed back against coming back to work. and then we would have seen, you know, 33 years ago do, can we credit that? what z may possible? i mean, you, in the united states in particular,

you hear people now all the time talking about this work, life balance and, and was wanting to have a healthy balance either 3 or 4 years ago. you know, no one talked about that as well. and i think what we're seeing is, is there is some splitting of the difference in that a lot of companies are adopting a tuesday and thursday must come into the office or beginning 2 days of the week. come in. instead of giving workers that flexibility and especially, you know, certain certain demographics, especially women who have a lot of responsibilities outside of the workplace. uh for care giving and health care and things like that. they're the ones that been on fairly penalize and data shows that they were, they were dramatically impacted compared to other demographics. and so i think it's really important for companies not to go all the way back. and we're seeing that there is, i mean, a lot of flexibility is staying much more than we had before. 2020. but yes, there's certainly a push in certain quarters to go back to the office, but it's not going back. it's never going to go back to the way it was and all we

have been created. it may be a hands, it have not work for us because the have central workers that we talk about people who work in the grocery store as people who work in the post office to mail delivery. know that these people, they, they can't work from home. they have to physically go to where the work is carried out. that is not going to change. they haven't benefited from any of this to me. um they're going to benefit, i believe some, some of the more flexible policies that we see. but you're, you're absolutely right. there is, this is very much a story of equity and inclusion and remote workers are never going to be as included as on site workers and the on site workers who has to be there, the health care workers, the front line workers. those also are losing out to automation in many cases. so really, the message is, is a lot of, if you really want a long term career, you have to start looking at maybe not so many frontline roles more,

more of those are in the active process of being automated from fast food to health care and more and we're really looking at a world where do you central ization more do you central ization is really going to be the trend and buddy. but what's amazing is the executive leaders don't believe that the data says because it shows that. i know that during the pandemic we, we heard from a lot of analysts, you know, warnings that if people are at home and they're not going into the office, they're going to lose this human interaction. people are or less creative, maybe even less productive when they're not. they are there's, there shouldn't be oaks as they synergy taking place. but, but what about career climbing of the fact that people are being forced to come back into the office at least a little bit. isn't that if, if you're in vicious, if you do want to have a career, isn't it in your interest to at least show your face? i mean zoom could actually be your enemy at the end of the day. i or yeah, well i think that spot on got younger workers are just unfortunately affected by my not having the skills and no one doing this. how to teach them how to be very

effective in a remote situation. and so it'd be missed out on all that sir, and deputy, and you can get in a physical office and i, and i don't think i'm not saying and i think the research and it says that we're not going to go all remote what we're gonna see is much more flexibility to coming and going uh, you know, uh on demand work places where workers can meet in a certain city if they all work for the same company. and this is where co working, they have spaces. it becomes a big deal where you can store extra birds can still get the energy they need from the crowd running into birds, which, you know, always wanted to work alone anyway. i can get what they want because there is no one size fits all. and in a more flexible, more hybrid environments, the more the best employee employers can support that. the veteran worker workforce, they're going to try. and we're still waiting here in europe for the for day work week. our fingers are still cross. that will become a reality. we have to wait and see the unhinge cliff from constellation research. we appreciate your time today. thank the

the, you're watching the day. we'll see you tomorrow, the a pulse, the beginning of a story that takes us along for the ride.

it's about the perspectives culture information. this is the, the news w. mine's pretty clear through their own actions. their ultimate goal is to wipe out an entire city doing these through the week or the week of this in china and oppressed minority. the international community has no right to stay silent, because silence is always the torture is accomplished. the on the

door and 6 because my child is free and if you don't take mommy to my son, your mommy's not coming back. over february 2022 russian troops invaded the ukrainian city of computer. it was recaptured. 6 months later the occupation was hard. how can lives go on after all the terror? not everyone can do with the fear we felt every day. when russia comes start to august 25th on dw, the 15 sigma of seduction indicate which trying do you belong to and express your attitude to life. yet try as we might. we all have bad hair days, not
