republic. i. i i i. i'm in solidarity with those who think there is no place for this kind of lawlessness we saw in august the 9th 10th and 11th. it was the most racially because you are here because we want to stop the choices that have been taking place in this country for a long time. space correspondent went to a productive shanker rally and sent this report i did but just some people are protesting while others are protesting against the protests i happened to meet my university friends here i asked them did anyone make you come out here they said no we are the organizers and i asked the same question to other people at the rally they said they wanted to be heard because those red and white flags are being shown everywhere and there is so much anger at the rallies in support of look at shankar

happening very spontaneously to get approval from local officials literally the day before gatherings like this are not so much for a look at but in support of stability and maintaining good relations with russia. european union has confirmed it's drawing up sanctions against the russian officials who are suspected of election fraud and violence against protesters the bloc hasn't disclosed yet whether or not alexander lukashenko himself is on the list in fact brussels lifted penalties on him 4 years ago meanwhile if you weigh near as band lukashenko and 31 other better russian officials from entering their country. the us stress that there should be no foreign meddling in the belarussian crisis moscow points out though that vilnius is doing precisely that with its sanctions on the. when saving the opinion held an emergency video conference on the crisis the block you know mostly rejected the results of the disputed election and expressed its full support for the opposition at least on a quarter looks sits with the in use declared neutrality. for the west bank it was

always europe's last dictator the european union never liked the guy but they did try to play nice not anymore we stand by the people of belarus their european union student in so we don't retreat was a piece of better research by schools than most benefits should on its own choose plain dependant path to the country will follow there should be no outside interference in the situation they're understaffed and things could no longer continue as they are in belarus now it's about when a dictator has come to the end of the road it's best to find a way forward for the violence to suspicious in the western powers throw around words like dictator and regime usually it doesn't and well no wonder it sounds pretty alarming to moscow but it's good you should be able to see you can just as we are deeply concerned about what's going on right now in better roofs we are concerned by the attempt to exploit the internal challenges facing bellaver to

interfere in them from a brutal it goes without saying belorussian president alexander lukashenko is also concerned with those incidents you know when you see western countries are openly without hiding it raising funds and sending them to work we cannot track all of that as much of it is in cash but we see it we know what's going on and we will focus on this issue. the european union isn't just paying lip service to the ballarat opposition either the millions of euros in aid it promised to the belorussian government are now being redirected to so-called civil society an independent media and the european commission will mobilize now an additional $53000000.00 euros to support the belorussian. people are in these challenging times we can't forget the e.u. states neighboring valorous which seem to have their own agendas for one the polish prime minister seems to think belarus is close ties with russia make it incapable

of democracy and there is a plan to change that of an economic plan should be presented to the ruse because now it is highly dependent economically only russia poland has already presented a plan for intensive calls. in the areas of independent media the economy investment and international trains of the poland's plan involves spending a leaven 1000000 euros on scholarships for media and academics that it deems to be independent warsaw is also generously offering to open its doors to belorussian workers just think what the loss of balance the skilled workers would do to help democracy. actions were not since a few with the name used in tone and the fact is we can and should extend a helping hand to the russians it's a similar story in lithuania where the opposition leader svetlana to kind of sky is in self-imposed exile and other belorussian anti-government n.g.o.s are operating from it's also where a fund raising initiative called freedom 1st to go bella reuss is being organized

intended to encourage the creation of a democratic state aside from the fact that its director provided direct support to the ukrainian uprising in 2014 little is known about who is involved or where the money is coming from combined questions surrounding the opposition's shady sources of funding with the e.u. is cold shoulder to lucas sankoh and you have to ask yourself who is going to really come out on top from the rest and valorous is an important russian everything will be here in the western media but we know the news of. egypt. and that of mir the speech of both. the. really what you think is one of the least of the e.u. they've made the 1st steps of the all lethal interference in. the russians so far. they've been very patient and look please who are in charge

you. believe that we all are why one train one direction so what is it you that's done a lot of thinking ever since. mr preamble wrote is this true. back eventually to. the body of a 16 year old sudanese boy has been discovered on the beach in france the authorities say that he drowned attempting to cross the english channel u.k. same secretary has blamed traffickers for the tragedy pretty patel says that the boy's death is a reminder of how brutal criminal gangs and smugglers exploit vulnerable people u.k.'s main opposition party labor has slammed the government for its lack of compassion and for incompetence in its approach to the rise in migrant crossings. french british authorities will hold talks on how best to deal with the situation paris is demanding $30000000.00 pounds to help police the channel but london says

that it will only offer extra money friends takes back more migrants almost 5000 people have received via the channel this year alone among them unaccompanied children correspondent he spoke to some of those who made the crossing. it's all guess the heights of summer with families fucking to the beach the sea being these children's playground but it's another battlefield because over on the other side of the english channel many people are trying to get to the united kingdom these are the kids who survived a life threatening journey crossing the english channel on boats made for just a fraction of the passengers this is mahomet's and up to their names have been changed for their protection the 16 years old intercepted at sea a few weeks ago by the u.k. border force and taken into care all of them came separately and alone off camera they told me how scared they were and how relieved they were to finally reached after years of travelling from sudan here's what they had to say their words have

been voiced by an actor. from france from libya it was scary very scary to 2 years to make it here from sudan we all cable road so these are the small boats and dinghies that been swept up by the u.k. border force carrying migrants across the english channel as you can see they're very small indeed usually would hold around 10 people or so but at least double that are crammed onto these tiny boats many people are not even wearing life jackets across the world's busiest shipping line at least 20 miles long so when people say it's a life threatening journey it's not an exaggeration we've met a lot of the young people have come in on these boats they say that the journey was really traumatic they thought they were going to die a lot of the times they say that when they saw the size of the boat and how many people were in it they tried to refuse to go in but they were beaten and told that they had to get in and go while chatting with the boys they told me of their hopes

and dreams of getting an education and eventually working in the u.k. but while they've made it to the u.k. it isn't a safe haven they expected with kent under pressure saying it's unable to house anymore and with 4000 arriving in 2020 alone the council says it needs more support to accommodate behind this fence is one of the centers where unaccompanied asylum seeking children get taken once intercepted on the english channel and brought to the british the millbank reception center in ashford near dover holds around 50 under 18 year olds and anyone under 16 is immediately placed into foster care but the fate of these children in places like this is not known as their health care until they're processed or even sent back it's like a prison we are not free some staff told me that in a few weeks maybe i will transfer but you don't know when we don't know anything we must wait maybe 34 months i've already been here 2 weeks but don't tell us what happens next how many campaigners have long criticized the home office for failing

to provide safe humane and legal routes for them so they aren't forced. to make such a perilous journey because i know for a fact that a lot of the trafficked it will go into drugs ours is counted as farms and eventually find their way through the system but it would be at the hands of traffickers and in the hands of gangs and exploited and also that which is quite a lot or so why and and those same hounds of gangs and traffickers and that's what we need to sort the system out is we need to limit what these gangs and traffickers are able to do by making safe routes these boys are among the lucky ones making a terror life but despite surviving that perilous journey across the channel they and many like them still face an uncertain fate and one that could ultimately mean being sent back. was spokesperson for the home office says it's doing all it can to support young refugees providing extra help with children services and provisions

for unaccompanied minors. in other news in a surprise move canadian prime minister just intruder has suspended the country's parliament in a week already marked by an unexpected cabinet shuffle justified the decision with a need to reassess parliaments and gender despite vowing in the past never to make use of his legislative power critics are accusing the canadian need of trying to dodge scrutiny over his government's role in a growing ethics scandal that also involves his family i have asked the governor general to probe parliament which must happen before any government can present a throne speech starting a new session of parliament is about creating sustainable ways to support you moving forward that has always been our number one focus and it always will be. justin trudeau amputated his right hand to train safe himself when he forced his finance minister to resign now he's shutting down parliament and locking out the

opposition m.p.'s to prevent us from holding him accountable and getting answers and he's w e scandal shutting down parliament in the middle of a pandemic and an economic crisis with a plan sitting next week in committees working hard to get answers and solutions for canadians is wrong the canadian parliament will be suspended for 5 weeks several of its committees have been investigating the government's actions involving a student grant program and there's independent ethics watchdog is separately investigating trudeau as well as his former finance minister both are being investigated over alleged breaches of conflict of interest laws and after the government awarded a $690000000.00 student grant program to w e charity which has ties to the p.m.'s relatives trudeau is said that he should have recused himself from that cabinet decision but has dismissed allegations of preferential treatment w.-e. charity and the government have since ended their partnership. this is not the 1st

thought trudeau has been in the hot seat the prime minister has twice been reprimanded by the country's ethics watchdog including last year after breaking conflict of interest laws by pressuring his former attorney general to help a major construction company settle a corruption case out of court journalists public says that this latest groundless unlikely to go away. a number of high ranking liberals including the prime minister were connected with the charity his family members as mother and his brother received close over $300000.00 in paid speaking opportunities with that organization i do think that over the last couple of years his character has as being damaged by his own actions by his own words by his past and how that is present by the things you see versus the things that he's doing and the recent use of the probation as well as the we scandal are things which are continuing

amounts of that i do believe that when it went on like she does little in the near future that the liberal party could perhaps be looking at somebody else to lead. the military in mali so that they will pave the way for new elections in the country and insist that they will set up a civilian transitional government in the meantime this is after soldiers have staged a coup to oust president brought him. to step down on tuesday while these former colonial power and friends has condemned the coup but the saudis reports paris is track record in the region in quelling violence and unrest is open to scrutiny. forced to step down the president of mali has been detained by the military after months of protest.

but. the former leader has been accused of mismanaging the economy corruption and worsening the situation when it came to the fight with jihad just groups in the north however he did enjoy the backing of france smalley's former colonizer and french troops have been in mali since 2013 to keep terrorists at bay the results in the country has been rather modest the security situation in mali has recently deteriorated. the security situation in the sahara countries has deteriorated considerably in recent months conflicts prevailing in the region are have an unprecedented humanitarian consequences on civilian populations face an insecurity and displacement the french president in my new prime actually believes that the operations are successful because of all i mean you little to

think we've improved our effectiveness in information exchange and the fight against terrorism and succeeded with our unique information center in niamey we have achieved strong results especially in recent weeks. france recently raised the number of troops in the region to 5000 but locals say they want them out. the reason we are protesting is that france has been here in our country for 7 years but people die if we had 10 difficulties when france arrived we now have 90 friends came to help us to fight terrorism but now each of us is questioning if it has indeed been fought. our impression is daily suffering it is as who called friends to help we called it to help us fight terrorism thing god friends cain that they came to help but they came to destroy us don't know when you look if our leaders do not tell them to leave we will tell them we won them out of the country . many analysts don't point the finger at france for the situation but actually

point to nato as intervention in nearby libya which are least a torrent of terrorism in the region if you want to look at the west it. one is scarier to develop all northern africa and 2 is the fact that the obama administration a friend precipitated the even slightly reaching change against president about 3 and then in 2012 the twat writes out of libya of course out of jury room large shipments of on syria hardware and dated more than mali and this led to the collapse of the government 2012 and now it's never recovered so this invasion which was precipitated by people new obama administration's powers seems right. to get on with french president.

now many observers are wondering if the situation will deteriorate even further if toppling the president in mali lead to further terrorism and violence well if france is record seems to point to anything it's that the presence of foreign troops doesn't really help the situation it will pop an artsy new york. the only energy plant in the girl's a strip shuts down israel stops fuel supplies in response to cross border fog by hamas will more or less after the break. join me every 1st week on the alex simon sure and i'll be speaking to us from the world of politics sport i'm showbusiness i'll see you then.

welcome back the only power plant in gaza has closed down after israel stop supplying fuel that was in response to cross border fog must be to girls or officials the amount of electricity available to residents has been drastically reduced the population of $2000000.00 people relies on the israel for most of its energy needs they currently get around 6 hours of electricity a day this could now go down the hall but it's heavily affects the main services in the gaza strip including health care. either. why does only gaza have to deal with this problem it could put 75 percent of patients lives at risk patients will die if there's no electricity here. times will have to be cut. muscular could be another one of the machines will not work and staff will be forced to shorten the duration of dialysis this will cause suffering for patients and some could die

so we need to provide the treatment for 4 hours every 2 free days it will be a disaster and many people will suffer this is totally wrong it's put in the health of so many people at risk people might not survive. when i get that i could lose i feel bad and i can't sleep i used to ask my daughter to help me without electricity there will be no dialysis or health officials in gaza say that in addition to the patients who need regular procedures surgical operations and intensive care also risk in coma 19 testing labs may have to hold their operations because services need hundreds of thousands of liters of fuel to provide normal levels of care in the city of health urgently calls for a resolution to the issue. cutting off electricity to hospitals will have a dangerous effect on all health services provided in the gaza strip and we call on all relevant parties to intervene to solve this problem and save the health sector in gaza by restarting the power plant again. human rights activists say the holding

fuel supplies amounts to collective punishment targeting people's basic needs. these really decision to close the crossings and block shipments and the resulting power cart off marks a dangerous escalation in the collective punishment of gaza it is against international law and basic human decency it is political blackmail. lebanon is said to enter a 2 week lock down from fridays it struggles to cope with a sharp rise in cope with 19 cases the country's health care systems been pushed to breaking point after a catastrophic explosion in beirut put 3 hospitals at half the capital clinics out of operation new video has emerged showing the destruction of some of those facilities the warning you might find some of these pictures upsetting. according to the red cross the transit left at least 200 people dead more than 6000 injured 300000 people lost their homes it's believed that a fire in

last 30 to 40 years the inequality has become x. even more extreme than it ever was it is destroying the community of the united states it is making the country extremely divided the government has done nothing new or different to support the manners of people the overwhelming majority of support is going to the big corporations the big banks and that's what's fueling the stock market which keeps going up and because the top 10 percent of the people own 80 percent of the shares of stock it makes the rich richer and the mass of people remain in their difficult economic circumstances so the inequality helped produce the crisis and a crisis reinforces the inequality. and finally
