president scientist foundation takes clear lead, following the campaign, overshadowed by the drug cartel violence, and the murderers of the dozens of candidates, the air until berlin. thank you for joining us. we started in south africa where presidents around the force that has called on political parties to find common ground. as the ruling african national, congress lost its longstanding majority. the party has dominated south africa since the end of apartheid. but most now seek new coalition partners. some of those rival parties seeing they will only deal with the agency in front of the foster stand style. they left the commission of south africa, declasse, the results of the, of the 2024 national and provincial elections as free and fair

for me. the end of the election period and the start of a new era in south africa. an era of coalition government at national level, while the ruling african national congress has secured more votes than its rivals. it doesn't have the majority to lead the country on its own. we have yeah. what this election has made play is that the people of south africa expect to their lead us to work together to meet the needs. they expect the parties for which they have voted to find to come on gong to overcome their differences, to act and work together for the good of every one political parties. we'll spend the next few days discussing potential coalition

agreements, meaning recent photos will have to become fost frames. we've heard about to, to scenarios in that is the n, c, d i s b as the most favorable one in terms of the, of stabilizing the country. and stabilizing markets, and we've heard about the a and c s s i m k. but remember in case going to peak condition note, i'm a pause. if you don't, if there's, if there's around the close of day, we don't talk you from forces not then we talk to the n c. many parties have already made it clear. they'll have strict terms and conditions before joining hands with the a and c. i said 10 fundamental things that you will, you will know that this to break us putting says the issue of lent and is not something that you can compromise on. yeah. but will end in gauge of open minded kind of and engagement. and then for the ticket from the political analysts say the amc will also have to consider

what impact a deal would have on both domestic and foreign policy inside the body to lead. as i agree on the direction that the parties should take or the post just that the part issue that dropped on the other side. the what you made, tim, nation of the interest of an extend that'll play as will carry quite a, you know, way to legitimacy such as business and civil society international community who will be putting pressure to political parties as the electoral commission reps up. it's what political parties into the next phase they have of just 14 days within which to form the national and provincial governments. some say this is a very short time for parties who have significant ideological differences to reach an agreement is to been mixed 13,

regardless of who gets the upper hand. the general feeling in the country is that the africans democracy is the main window. in this election, international mediators are calling on both israel and homos to greet, which was proposal put forward by you as president joe biden is really prime minister. benjamin netanyahu is under intense domestic pressure at home is really protest her is want him to reach us these far deal and secure the immediate release of hostages. but as far right allies are threatening to bring down the government if he does. since the beginning of the war, netanyahu has insisted on the total destruction of homos. he has carefully avoided defining any clear timeline for ending the conflict or any discussion of the day of the in gaza. but now his hand may, has been forced by a truce proposal forwarded by us president joe, but the deal would bring

a permanent ceasefire in gaza in exchange for the remaining hostages, held by him a crucially, the us stresses the plan is not this. this was, is really proposal. we have every expectations that if a mazda agrees to the proposal as was transmitted to them and is really a proposal, that is where it would say, yes, well, how much is the abuse, the proposal positively. netanyahu's file, right allies of feelings. he's got it as a reckless deal. there was no total victory except the total the feed for him us. i mean, i say that if prime minister netanyahu continues to lead this deal, we will dismantle the government to have some the ultimatum has left to the prime minister facing a stock choice. and the clock is ticking. okay, last month, one of the members of israel's 3 man war cabinets when it gets delivered to an ultimatum of his own. den scapes the government until june 8th to come up with

a plan for the future in gaza. or he'll withdrawal from the government. the pressure is mounting on netanyahu, and it's coming from all sides. mexico's ruling party has declared leslie or claudia, showing them the winter of the presidential election on course to become the nation's 1st female leader. i suppose give she moment a double digit leader of her nearest rival. it's mexico's bigger selection. with more than a 100000000 voters able to make their choice. however, the campaign was marked by violence involving drug cartels with at least 37 candidates murdered bullen all. it was a quite peaceful day after this whole series of assets and nations ahead of the elections. it was one of the bloodiest election campaigns that the country has seen in its history. but now as the night goes on, i think very soon we will have the confirmation that claudia st. bottom is uh, the next president. if things go like the way that they go now. all right,

so let's go back to those results if we can for a moment, a landslide victory for she also makes sure the 1st single present for mexico. so how significant is this? when actually for machine gun this is his story cuz this is really historic because mexico obviously never has seen a woman in charge of the country as president. and this actually ends centuries off and male domination in this highest office of the country. so it also gives the women in the country hope and sort of a sense of pride and confidence that these things are possible for women and mexico . we're looking at the country with a very high rates of crime of gender based violence. um, there are around 10 women per day that are being killed in mexico. so this is a country where violence against women is really one of the topics. all one of the some, some people also also say there's one of the illnesses of the country really. and

that needs to be obviously tackled by somebody who then is a female leader in the country. it will be interesting to see how cloudy assignment goes around that because she has promised that you obviously will spend on the side of the women to try to improve things in the country. not everybody is sure that you will be able to do that. she is a direct candidate that lopez over at the order here the current president still has been presenting to the public and has been supporting. so it would be a piece of continue to that. we're looking here as well. and as we can see, the lopez over that little government hasn't basically tackled the issue of violence and also not the tackle a pick up the issue of gender based file and see it in the country, which is huge because of the growing power of criminals. and organized crime in the country, which impacts all layers of society really also the political

a us and therefore shapes politics here in mexico as well. it's a huge problem. right? that was the w. nicole res, reporting for us from mexico. thank you very much for your reporting. here's a brief look out some other stories making headlines around the world. a police officer has died 2 days after being stabbed and attacked. the german city of mannheim. the sealant target right wing and date is lum riley. several other people were injured before police shot and seriously wounded in iceland. ukraine's president has urged top defense officials to attend an upcoming global p summit to meet the people in front of defense ministers at a security conference and singapore. so lensky said he wants to put 4 proposals to end the one ukraine, but for someone from switzerland, in the june assignment we will in south korea, says it will retaliate against its neighbor, north korea, for sending trash from balloons over the border north. as part of the scores of balloons of the past week, authorities say is as it is in retaliation for activism,
