dearest quick. it was only in the morning. i was slipping, all of us on the ground. so can, i can do note is this is dog creek because it's been going to come on in the mountains age on leaving. so for income, the od green for many years i'm the latest one was in 2015. that way. and when i noticed these are great, and then i could do it on out of my mom. and when i came out to do with accordion to other people who it also assembled outside that way. and do you want to of these gaming they were getting the credit cards going that way. and we just spent a few minutes there and of the saw. so it is still there. i'm gone, was seeking, you know, of the software is thinking the grounds, batteries and there are no,

these are many casualties in the bottom. what do we get to know? many people have dining neighboring china talk to us about the 2 bed region. that is where the in that region was where the epicenter was. apparently, what more can you tell us about the situation there, or what i have a knowing is that the, it's extremely cool there. so let's go sorry, starting to reach out to my girlfriend to hear you guys. and they've been using the drawn to send the mid deals that way. thousands of people being mobilized to the objectivity areas and just to given you struggling to figure out the pain sign these to the data. yes. and the all the posts are you know, put in place just to make the risk. you keep you saying i'm time the human

side is printed and so you didn't being has any question. some student courses to read sound up into the a and that's what it is. so hard up there is screw up the sense of underway, but that being lost. yes, i do because of extreme gord. now you mentioned earlier the 2015 earthquake that killed tens of thousands of people. how well are people in the region prepared for earthquakes? if you don't care about the city as people are, uh people are a big oh wait about the citizen because they know that building cords and they want to build the super houses for dwayne, you talk about and believe it is people that are still not with the bill that way, given you still building the house, is made of mazda any stones. and the not calling the building goes that way. you solve it because of the or you can only go and do sonya is way. and we have my

experience a similar kind of last week and we started it by the end of the month. so, and it's of people that died just a few years back that way. and it's still something at the end of the 2015. so i think, but the people are not, no, fully biting the building codes, and they have to do so many things to make their houses up like it is len. unfortunately, we've been experience experiencing this sort of a week and above a diamond again. so how did a lot of goods or more focusing we started above, but this time again, they seated based on your file and send the photo. that's my new that was did you mind is a 2015 to do busted clean for many of these potters? thank you very much for talking with us today. that was barbara sharma, a reporter in come into now to south korea, we're

a course says re issued a warrant to arrest, impeach, present you, and so kill. that's according to the countries corruption investigation agency. investigators seeking to question you on allegations of insurrection have so far struggled to execute a warrant for his arrest. his lawyers filed an injunction requests to a sole court to nullify the warrant, but the court struck down that on sunday i asked journalist probably and crushed by an sole about south korea's political crisis and the newer arrest warrant for president. yeah, yeah, the district in the west and so has issued another bar and it is presumably valid for another week. so that gives the n t corruption agency who was leading investigations against you in another week to prepare another arrest. i mean, so far they have failed, and actually the situation has remained the same use. so if y'all has been barricading himself and his residencies shielded by his presidential security guard,

which is almost like a military unit who his lawyer committed it to the president. and he's also shielded by bob, why and by hundreds of them demonstrate us of the human supporters who basically act as a human shield into one to prevent interest. and that was also the reason why in the past it has failed the investigators. they arrived on the scene, they wanted to get into the presidential residents, but then it was stopped by the presidential guards and basically out of security concerns out of safety concern. sorry, they had to stop to arrest june. and now it is presumed that may be the um, anti corruption agency by tried to arrest the presidential security guard as well. but that is only speculation. i just know that the c i o, that's the name of the empty corruption agency, is very determined to try again and try to rest of your so as you say you and has

taken shelter in his residencies, refused to cooperate with authorities. he's protected by the presidential guard. where is this going to go from here? fabia of the. yeah, i mean there was so many plot twists and many spectacular events a breaking almost every day. so this saturday they will be huge and to june. so if you all the demonstrations and the public pressure is really growing by the date, of course, june still has some support to us and they are really hot cost support us every active and, and very loyal to you. and so you all about the brought majority in south korea is really outraged by the use of you all to behavior because he basically stands that both of the law and that is really unacceptable. also for the newspapers to every very critical and report very critical against him. then of course you have the investigation that i already mentioned by the n t corruption agency. but overall you also have the impeachment trial. now to give you some context,

you can. so if you all um, was impeached or voted to it to be impeached by the parliamentary and after he to clear up martial law. but that decision has to be reviewed and decided by the constitutional court. and that is exactly what's happening now. we don't know how long that will take, but given the power of s u m. and to really the concerns and also economic concerns security concerns for the country. the constitutional causes, under immense pressure to make a past decisions on that method because self career really wants to go back to normal and wants to overcome this government crisis. probably. and thank you very much journalist, probably on crossfire there on the streets of sol. let's take a look at a couple of other stories making headlines today. the 1st international flights of landed at syria's main airport in damascus since the over throat. a long time dictator shaw i last on 2 flights from damascus international airport to part in for the united air them are it's in the morning. and the 1st incoming fight,

once from customer friends, is commemorating the victims of the deadly assault on the charlie of those satirical magazine, 10 years ago, 2 mast el coyote linked gunman with assault rifles. storms, charlie of those paris, off paris, news room and killed 12 people. the attack settle a space that is almost militant attacks on the con. shown the pen, the founder of the french power rights national front party has died at the age of $96.00. the pin who blended aggressive nationalism with populace christmas shook the french political establishment when he unexpectedly reached the presidential election. run all vote against junction ok. and 22002. he was succeeded as party chief by his daughter at marie le pen who has since run for the presidency 3 times and turned the party now granted, the national riley into one of france's main political parties. i spoke

earlier about this with philip mother, a professor emeritus and political communication at the phone from the institute of political studies in paris. he told me more about john lucas, the drama, the, the pens political legacy to well, i would say, i'm joking this. he's probably gonna lose he's, he's still throwing away because i would say that his main achievement was a to a, to uh, run of the election. but afterwards he gets, uh, i would say having such an extreme most be kind of speech that he couldn't get probably elected the need at any time. and he's the completely understood it. and she even expense him from his own thoughts you 10 years ago. exactly in august the 2015 and uh, because he even kept saying that may be the, the mexico of jews, injured,

denver side of jews in germany. had been the incident of the 2nd good. well, he wouldn't commit to say that it was a genocide. so he's not the warranty to be elected drug, and she understood that she had to expend him somehow and to get 3 does, this is the duration. and so say that he's lucas, he's also a noise person. okay. can you explain to us the, how strongly me some of the depend went about establishing the far right as a political force in, in france and by extension to some degree, europe. totally do that. but the 1st you have to understand that he was helped, strangely enough of a false when he deal uh, in the mid eighties falls for me to always afraid to lose power. and he decided then this was now has been improved and improving afterwards to hedge. i might have been to establish a political as that you and then one of the,

i would say the biggest achievement of somebody that then is the fact that he has it taken to the common grounds the far right. uh, these are species functions. uh, longevity, zation is it, well really she use the 1st uh the, the fee of, uh the, the outside world. uh the things in english connections these, this is his, uh, i would say he's older legacy. he was the one who, who's the head of having the extreme right. the speeches become common language. okay. how would you describe the party that he founded now, of course, has a different name spelt the national funds, national rally, but how has that party changed over the past 10 years? so well, it's it so he's familiar with bins doing and uh she wanted to have the uh

what we quoted here uh, legally categorization of uh how about tea. and she started to even uh, help defend a people against anti semitism, which is good news for us. all right bout teen falls. and so she's now one of the keenest, a supporters of he's reading the, in the, in the current to meet or the situation the, and this is very interesting. he's going to move. and now it's a fall left in false, which is a on the card for we are having the, the strongest. i would say you can meet them into the police scene. and so it's going to move she, she shan't apprised. and uh, i would say the bed was a pretty happy with what you did then the they hadn't, even though they didn't keep the very good relationships either. since he expend team and he even went to court to try to remain in the about to because he had the data from the replacement, the bulky. and she also been him from,

from the date of feeling malick, professor emeritus and political communication at the front of the institute of political studies in pers. thank you very much. thank you. as well. french president, a manual nicole has found himself in the center of a diplomatic storm after recent comments he made defending the presence of french troops in africa. today, france began the process of withdrawing troops from chubb permanently by con, sparked a backlash from several african leaders accusing them of failing to say thank you. to french troops battling as long as insurgencies in several african countries. most of what assume we have a secure relationship and it is in truth, it was in 2 parts. in one part was our commitment to fighting terrorism since 2013 we were right. i think some of the forgotten to say thank you, but that's okay. it will come in time. i'm in a good position to know that in gratitude is

a disease that cannot be transmitted to humans. but i say this for all the african governments who not have the courage and the face of public opinion to barris that none of them would be in a southern country today, if the french army had not been deployed in this region. frances, in the process of withdrawing troops from chads, set a goal and ivory coast and has recently left molly's new share. and burkina faso is a closer look at how france is grappling with waning influence in the region. moved them 60 years after chad gained independence from from french troops of finally packing up to leave for good as a growing number of african nations force. they form a colonizer to withdraw its millet train last month, ivory coast joined chad and seen a go in causing millet tree ties. following announcements from molly,

the keen of fossil and media on the move dumped. the brick set comes amid growing local resentment towards from the french troops stayed on and we stand for camp after it ended, it's colonial rule in the sixty's and french soldiers have been fighting alongside local forces for decaying. the critics say they've had little effect in detouring security threats and militant groups in recent years. i couldn't get enough to non military cues. and molly, the keen of fossil and media heavily so speed up the withdrawal. the french forces true numbers, uh estimated to have dropped by around 70 percent since 2021 from still maintains a large military base and get booty east africa with president emanuel. my chrome visited last month. but it's, it's,

it l suite has seen countries look for of the international support with russian. this sum range is now operating in the region. strange forces and likely to be almost entirely out of waste staff for ken, by the end of the year, signaling a significant shift in its influence over its former colonies. more let's bring in beverly o chang. she's a security analyst and joins us from car. probably present my call is getting a lot of pushback for his statement, suggesting a lack of gratitude for francis military involvement in africa. a chad top diplomat says mccaul and has to learn to respect africans. does he have a point? i mean has to happen range some of the options and even from some the goal was the prime minister said that there are no talks of funds annually. the memory of west african forces did find with strong stream to world war. so it does feel that they

are returning my cons, comments back action. the african forces should just make significant sacrifices during the world war. and france was merely giving similar support to the african countries that have called on it to come in. some of the things i'm recording has been seeing over the years approximately once. have you, i'm to friends, comment teachers, for instance. they use comments which is about $3.00 and $4.00 ideas from continues to have what is seen as approximate listed attitude towards math, become an advocate and he does have made some sovereign choices. as we have seen that statement by putting the wires into the tax and the goal, and even the saw how, despite the acrimony behind, the french soldiers had been deployed to help fight against j. hottest in the soho in the whole region. how, how do you see their withdrawal impacting security in the region?

well, at the moment with, or across the regions, these have not been adequately replaced and the level of training and intelligence support that they were given has also significantly reduced. the 3 countries have and box and that one separate campaigns to recruit into the security forces. and also for me, what is called the lines of health states and such and see. but bottom has continued to spread to anecdotes, but just reflect this is in the last 2 of these, one of the subjects at the top in the moment telephone is a company, is the yes before to talk experience in the 2nd space and even near the border with the jet and lots of jump up models, capital, obama 14 under thomas. this is a progressive 2 year period. wow. i've been moving towards itself. so the sato on the right stretched. and the french forces was quite southern and acrimony. yes.

which meant that there wasn't a t. i handle bob's services, intelligence for training and supports ok in some countries in africa though, we're friends, had a military presence. um they, these companies still maintain relations with paris was less acrimonious. the departure of french troops talking the ivory coast set a goal child, for example. how does the departure of french troops fit into their geo political calculations to? i mean, for some a goal, it's been very clear. they are promoting nationalism policies. find the president sending over the last year, but the presence of french forces does not sit well alongside serenity and nation. i was calling to voice a bit more. it's the implications of much more than having an election this. yeah, i was fun with tara has, in many instances, been seen as being too close to france in making that announcement. that's about what you want isn't a good position to take over its security despite the fact that that happened and,

and such and seem to file. it's a vote of confidence. relations will probably continue to be quite wrong, particularly with what you want in france, commercial security, and even diplomatic would send them on. there might be some tensions given the statements that came from both sancho and by with todd less. so because we have seen the statement from the, from the point that it still was quite spun and the increase in the incremental statements from the government. so that there might be some strange relations which might be some challenges, especially for friends commercial operators. we're looking to stay or operates in china. now, some countries in the west of some need that night, state europe have concerns that other international players like china or russia particularly could end up filling the gaps left by francis withdrawal. what do you make of that? i mean, as it stands, they have come from the region are in building new partnerships,

some of those present 5 said that he will be working across east west china. i've talked to you last year trying to establish embrace from tiredly, united arab emirates, russia. hungary will be sending the forces the region was hoping to support from the us. so it will be a diverse vacation. russia will take advantage, definitely not just in security, but even a commercial need. but we'll see a broad range of pardon those. imagine a very jump over the coming. yes. definitely. thank you very much for taking time. talk with us today. that was beverly o g. i a security analyst in doc. com sketch up on a few other stories making headlines. they donald trump, junior, the son of the us president elect has arrived in greenland for a private visit. donald trump has on several occasions, suggested that the united states by or amex, the autonomous danish territory. greenland officials say no meetings are planned

with trump junior. the 1st human death link to birds live in the united states has been reported in the state of louisiana. health authorities said the patient was our elderly and suffered from other illnesses, almost 70 people in the us of contract. it bird flew since april. most of them farm workers in the us at least 5 people have been killed after a powerful winter storm, brought freezing conditions in heavy snowfall to the midwest and east coast. so marius have seen their heavy snow fall in decades of the united states as being pummeled by a mass of winter storm system ice and snow, but a deep freeze on this highway in ohio as traffic ground to a standstill for 7 hours in kansas city. elbow grease was the only way be stranded motorists could get back on the road. as the snow continued to pile up, forcing the governor to send out the national guard in some regions. further south,

the snowfall caused travel chaos for states not used to heavy smells like here in louisville. kentucky is airport. across the us, over 2000 and flights were canceled and 20000 more delayed. and some locals have already lost patients within your records. no fault can be worse, and with more snow on the way it's already back to the shuffle. i got to work tomorrow, so making sure i get there. even the nation's capital wasn't spared from the arctic blast. much to the delight of this former olympian by athlete. yeah, we're so happy to be here and we're so grateful that we have this beautiful public space that we can enjoy in all weather. especially this one. the winter storm advisories remain in effect for many parts of the us until tuesday. urologist

matthew continued. she told us more about the impact of the winter storm on washington dc. it is a really well anticipated winter storm. so a lot of folks ahead of time are reaching out to me saying, hey, what do we do? should we change our travel plans that said roughly 90 percent of flights or reagan national airport, the main airport in dc but were cancelled. and i think as a result of that, so many folks me kinda scrambling to change our plans. i think these next 24 hours will be really rough for people in the city. not only do they have, you know, roadways that are really tough, but all the planes, the planes that should have been a reagan national are sort of not in the city. they're down in charlotte throughout further north and boston. those wants to take time to kind of get back into the city so that we can have flights out of the city. so it will be a little while for folks to sort of catch up here at least me aviation sector. but that said, you know, it once in a while, the city needs to kind of slow down and i think this is one of those times do you and how cold the air is. we won't really see any melting anytime soon. and until we

get we really late into tomorrow and early wednesday, we won't really see much improvement. so you're watching dw news up next global last looks at the effects of climate change and the philippines. i'm terry martin. thanks for watching. the
