4:06 pm
a closer look at these controversial reforms with maria up as mostly. she's a deputy director of the other in aust latin america center at the atlantic council . maria, what effects would these reforms really have on the judiciary system and mexico? thank you for having me. it's really concerning that this reform package has just just been approved without opposition. the, it's hard to say exactly what effect is going to have in the short term lopez soto load rather than being somewhat of a lame duck in his last few weeks in the office, is more like a jaguar, crawling down the jungle cementing his legacy. it will now be up to present incoming president plug of shame bomb to implement these reforms. the effect on the judiciary, i think, will be a few years before we can really see any concrete effects. but i will point out that the us,
4:07 pm
i'm say sunset clause is coming up in 2026 and the effects of this you. this sherry reform on foreign investments in mexico is of particular concern. now lopez, alberta said this was aimed of fighting corruption. how realistic is that? or he's, he's been a great at, i'm pushing through his message and controlling the narrative. the power needs to go back to the people. it's what he's been saying throughout the 6th a new. it's really one of the things that has given him such high level how high levels of approval and but logistically of the election of over 1600 judges who cools only retirement is to have had a law degree, which in mexico let's remember, is an undergrad, graduate degree, you don't have to go to law school to become
4:08 pm
a lawyer. you need to have around 5 to 9 years of experience really, but your additional branch in mexico has for the last 6 years, been the brakes to a full blown out implementation of mammals agenda. finally, finally been able to dismantle that. now another controversial point of the reforms is the, the use of faceless or anonymous judges and trials against organized crime figures . to say it's got the judges secuity and identities. but what are the risks that that is perhaps one of the more concerning provision provisions is the eventual if not rapid and perhaps given the high levels of impunity that you see in mexico, there north of 90 percent. given the, the penetration of tco stress, national crime organizations, the pulling to sation of the judicial sector is very concerning and the anonymous
4:09 pm
magistrates judges. they wouldn't be appointed to high profile crime of organized crime cases or high profile drug trafficking cases. it's hard to see how the organized crime wouldn't be able to infiltrate and somehow, you know, reach those anonymous charges. and now you have a written, it is clear that mexico's traditional revolt will have implications. fabi on domestic politics. what do you mean? we mean by that, that for investors are now thinking twice before they invest in mexico. while it's true that mexican who has seen high levels of f b, i over the last year and this year it's expected to be a record breaking amount of f. b. i that in mexico, we'll see these, these records,
4:10 pm
these levels of investment are happening in spite of the government. not because of the government, and for a, for an investor to come into mexico. they need to know that it's a level playing field that there are economists, agencies that are regulating how you trade, how you do investments. they need to know that they're not going to be this favored at a court over a local company or, or business. and these guarantees are going out the door with use reforms. we have us most do that from the atlantic council. thank you very much for sharing your expertise with us. thanks. as a quick look now at some of the news from around the world, a 1000000000 at business mountains adventure has completed the 1st of a privately funded space for derek isaac, and his crew successfully pull that yourself. the cops one ventured out into space
4:11 pm
. they were testing space. x is news space to which has been he is in development space quotes are among the most dangerous tasks undertaking biased sweden says it is doubling his budget for civil defense over the next 3 years to prepare for times of war. the extra money will be spent on health care and rescue services, boosting food and water supplies, and on transport and energy infrastructure. sweden has been concerned about its own security since russia invited ukraine. h. bells being returned to the knots of dumb cathedral in paris, often on the going restoration, the heaviest. as gabriel, which weighs in a more than 4 tons. not saddam is due to reopen in 3 months time off to be devastated by 5 in april 2090 or the social media platform ex, formerly known as twitter, has been blocked in brazil for weeks. the overnight, you know,
4:12 pm
mosque has refused to comply with legislation requiring a legal representative in the country is called it a hosted floor that would allow brazil to jail his employee if disapproved of content on the platform. now x is also facing scrutiny in europe over its practices . w, as terry shaw says x could even be binding the you, if it fails to comply with a block. so those are just 2 years ago was he was buying then twitter be a lot of musk seemed fine with the european union's new digital services act, the dsa, regulating online content is really great discussion. and um, i really think a i, bruce, everything is i really, but now muscles company renamed x is an e. u. regulators cross hairs. the 1st platform to face charges violating the dsa with
4:13 pm
a preliminary investigation showing x does not comply on 3 main points related to transparency and accountability and the dialogue. musk one's called a great has seriously deteriorated when you internal market commissioner terry brutal recently reminded musk he must comply with e. u la relations took a turn for the todd re does the commission of respects to eat on musk telling commission both on i'm quoting you to literally your own face. we don't comment on comments ever. we're not going to do it. in this case, commission vice president, better your of us is the you is waiting on next is response to the complaints. in europe, we have some content which is prohibited by loss, and it has to be respected online and they have to guarantee they are making enough money in the to be able to get on the legality of the content. it's not yet clear what x will do in brazil must chose to lift the platform, the band instead of complying with legal obligations. we cannot exclude it. of
4:14 pm
course we've seen them for sale. that musk is willing to go quite far. give up 22000000 users because he doesn't agree with these obligations. but it is certainly not the aim of the dsa and also not of the commission that these obligations would lead to have been off a flight from services. the idea and the goal is that platforms work better that they're designed better. that concept moderation is more accountable, more transparent, the deadline for x to change its ways is not public. but if the company doesn't, it could face a fine of up to 6 percent of its annual global turnover or b band, making them more than 110000000 current users in the u. x consumers smell. it starts, it also look at what's going on there with x and z, e. you, i'm drawn to this to do now by almost the account chief technology corresponded yellows. so what exactly is the, you accusing x and even mosque off?
4:15 pm
essentially it's comes down to 3 points of contention. so 1st it's about these blue check marks after musk took over who changed the rules so that everybody essentially can buy them by buying a subscription. and that is misleading, says the issue. then the 2nd issue is about advertising, and the uses fed ex does not provide enough information about advertisers on the platform. and the 3rd issue is about platform data and access to that platform data for researchers here in the european union. so it wasn't ex though. well, that really depends on how these talks between x and the european commission will turn out. those talks are happening behind closed doors, but they are talking x and the european commission. and the big question now is really will ex, made changes to its platform to comply with these rules, another digital services act, but this a,
4:16 pm
this new online platform regulation that we have here in the, you know, if x makes those changes the, you could decide to drop the prompt, if it doesn't, it could impose penalties, half dependents to penalties that would be painful to the company. and as a last resort, it could even decide to impose a temporary back. i don't want to use that smell at this point. it seems not very likely because i'm blocking a platform just isn't that good to look at something that's very, very controversial. i'm that being said, the e u and the european commission, they seem determined still get tough one x. this row is the 1st investigation, another d as a the digital services act. so they also determined to show that, you know, they will walk the walk and they will actually been forced those rules here in the european union. now, how much of this has to do with these on last as a person? i think that's a very good question and you cannot really. so if like detached what's happening at
4:17 pm
x from what's happening with a loan mosque as a person, as an entre per nor i'm. i think it's interesting to look at what happened in brazil, in brazil, it was kind of evident that he was willing to escalate the situation. and, you know, looking at sort of the situation here in europe, it could also be likely that he might be willing to do the same thing here that given what happened in brazil, what do you think you, if you lawmakers expect from you don't last? well, i think it's impossible to predict, but even my school do, i mean we're seeing that in the past. just, you know, let's be forget the fact that he bought twitter at the time. now x came as a surprise to a, to many, many people for everyone. so it's kind of impossible to predict what he's going to do next. that being said, you know, there are certain indications that you know, he might be willing to escalate the situation. he has said, for example,
4:18 pm
that he's willing to take this issue to the courts and it all seems like we really haven't seen the rest of it yet. that's for sure. thank you very much. did have you as chief technology correspondent, you want us to come back as it is one of the most famous us effects of actions, egypt, the bust of queen f, a t t. spent on display in a burden museum ever since it was discovered by german explorers more than a century ago. but now a prominent egyptian archaeologist has launched a petition calling on germany to give back the boss. it's a debate that's been going on now for a 100 years. who owns the famous boast of napa? t t. the diction queen was put on display for the 1st time and the noise museum in berlin in 1924. and is now in the possession of the pressure and cultural heritage foundation. over the years they have been repeated demands from egypt, vanessa
4:19 pm
t. t to be returned to homeland. now the renowned egyptian archaeologist, zaki, who was his, starts with a new petition calling for its repack creation. we are known today the user or the uh, this is the national committee as the government committee, the last 4 days of the box to visit the p. as in the past, the impression coastal heritage foundation still sees no reason to attend the valuable object. yeah, i don't. is the dispute in a traditional does our stances, of course, that we 1st of all adhere to the legal situation laga and it provides a clear basis to provide the best of here on plaza. i want to push to hear is the what is the legal basis in this complicated case. in 1912, egypt was not yet
4:20 pm
a sofa in states and not to petition control. archaeologists from britain, france, and germany was scowling the land in search of the treasures because they museums, according to the lowest and fullest. at the time excavation teams were allowed to take half of the objects found. while the offer have had to remain in egypt. when f a t t was excavated by the gym and off fuel to just literally boil hard to 1912, the antiquities department decided that the cost would go to germany, while the wind ulta piece would remain in egypt. so from this legal standpoint, everything was about food, but the laws of the time who made under the conditions of imperialism. for many egyptians, the return of the past is not a question of what is right in little bit of what is just the museums state for that this the entity is because our heritage was taken out of
4:21 pm
egypt by the page. and then this petition is not the 1st and probably want to be the last. there are currently no demands for restitution from the states of egypt. but the moral pressure on the pressure on cultural heritage foundation is growing and dw matthew moore is currently near cairo and he told us know about how the egyptian government sees the call to return this artifact. it's officially the chips and govern doesn't want green, never teaches boss to be returned. however, this is a ritual refrain from a well known archaeologist, someone who is a former minister of antiquities. and what us done is, it's really when you'd focus on this question, this whole debate, but it's where he put the focus on that again. and it's an emotional motional to be and it's an important topic for widespread contingent of egyptians who believe that it's important that, that in the kind of working through the history of colonialism that these really important artifacts are returned. and this archaeologist believes that the queen
4:22 pm
never teaches boss, was taken illegally that it was offensive, essentially stolen, thought is denied by the cultural depression and cultural heritage foundation in berlin, which has taken legally. and that's unlike other cases. and so what it is is this is really kind of kind of spotlight on the issue. again, there's not been a topic of discussion among political circles here. but another really interesting aspect to this story is this speaking to people who handle these ancient artifacts . physically see that the last is 3400 years old. these are significant questions about how you return it without damaging it. and for people whose job as a life as to restore a took to take care of these off the flux, that's a big, big question that hangs in the air. however, this is a political question. so the more pressure that is generated to you in the egyptian society that could in effect, put more pressure on the government. and we could see a change in the future about some mon, using very for you, us through the president a that's
4:23 pm
a full team already has died at the age of 86. he government proved for 10 years until the year 2004. he more as term was a mock by new liberal economic reforms and the violent suppression of a mile was insurgency. he was life in prison for human rights abuses, spending 16 years in jail before his release last year and brazil. wildfires was still burning in the state of south portal as obtained blazes raging near 12 cities. there are growing concerns about the economic impact of football fast and the effect on residence house. the leader of bangladesh entering government has an ounce plans aimed at restoring order and stability. also, the countries long time prime minister was topples by protests and forced to flee last months. the measures include new commissions to reform the electro system and establish good governance w's. our full is lum,

4:25 pm
police administration on for just the system. and so that's the topic leadership i've seen. i've also accused of making amendments to the constitution that benefited hurt, but a degree unit is task to get that in order to so it's a complete consecutive drake. this is one view this and then here's don't do the whole thing just and then the most important thing that we need back now, we have been these ident that constitution. so this is the only to see the differences in our own view is that we should not go to that these i think of when you're going to citizen, we should be focusing on the major issues of good institution and build a consensus. we cannot do anything without a gonzalez's because out a student comes from the consensus as head of the interim government, one of the most important task for you in this is to hold elections soon as possible. that's sort of mandate. we want to come to day like some, and have
4:26 pm
a decent election, beautiful the election and celebrate the victory of a particular party or whatever body, which comes in hand over the the power to the newly elected government. so this should be as brief as possible. we cannot give you data and time right now. there's only one month. we don't know exactly how much time each one of those reforms will be needed. because everybody agrees that we must complete the phone procedure 1st and hold the election around 1000 people for the student the weeks leading up to have seen this ouster on august 5th, making it the speed it in, but not the history since it's 1971. independence as the countries and get them leader, unit spaces and list of don't think tasks in a country that is still reading from violence and uncertainty,
