8:07 am
confidence among the shanghai cooperation organization member states. the past pandemic and the crisis in ukraine. of course, series disruptions in global supply chains. and the whole world is thus facing an energy and food crisis of unprecedented proportions. therefore, the shanghai cooperation organization needs to make efforts to develop reliable and diverse supply chains in our region distribute survey. the world is in the state of turbulence, and in the face of this challenges, we need to strengthen all unity. it is necessary to strengthen mutual support jointly strengthen or develop paths to ensure security and jointly resist tabs by external forces to interfere in the internal affairs of the shanghai corporation. organization member states. the shall, hi, corporation, organization to day unites 20 countries with a combined population of 3 and a half 1000000000 people which ease half of the world. literally, it is
8:08 am
a superpower that just can not be ignored. and early on friday was announced that the process started to include 5 more stay seem to be as seo under the status of a dialogue partners. and at 1st actually say a, the current summit is a lot to, bout showed and they to the outside world that the countries all the yes he or i spending together following hard years of the been dam make and are ready to work closely to achieve their mutual goals, malnutrition, and hunger have risen by almost a 3rd in africa in the past 2 years. that's according to the latest report from the international monetary fund. food insecurity is escalating across sub saharan africa countries in 2022 at a minimum, $123000000.00 people are projected to be acutely food insecure, suffering from high malnutrition and unable to meet minimum food consumption needs
8:09 am
. we spoke to the i, c. r c's, director of operations for africa, patrick yusef, who says that the issue is much deeper than just food shortages. well, 1st i think it's the magnitude, you know, we've never seen as much catastrophic or environmental shocks that we've seen like in somalia. if you're in sudan ward in mild your book, you know, fossil and i think the combined impact of on conflict, economic issues like the ramping insulation across sub saharan africa, but also the political environment as well as the climatic sharks are unfortunately showing imperfect store that needs indeed, an international effort, but also the local effort to integrate locals resources and solving local problems . and that requires indeed african solutions to african problems with the help of the international community. again, keep putting food on people's plates is not the solution for today. this will
8:10 am
certainly save people's lives. but what if we are truly and reasonably serious about finding short and long term solution is by investing heavily in the agricultural sector in the food production sector in the c multiplication facilities. it's indeed by joining hands with the private sector development actors international financial institutions and state themselves to find these solutions. international committee of the red cross says that the hunger problems facing the region long predate the ukraine conflict. united nations has also sounded the alarm over famine like conditions in northeastern africa. we're up to 22000000 people are at risk of starvation and more than 7000000 have been forced to migrate. international red cross director patrick use of again says the consequences of economic sanctions for africa may be irreversible. i think increased prices
8:11 am
globally even mean means a decrease and remittances from abroad to those economies that really rely on them . and this deals with demands a should tailored response, started getting those at most fris. i think the latest from, from ukraine, the ship that as dr. india booty, that indeed will hopefully feed the needs in, if you can. and g booty is indeed commendable, but truly not efficient. not enough because of the magnitude of the issues that we face and africa, the imposition of sanctions as a political decision. but one that can also have serious you any getting consequences which must be taken into account. so an as an independent and impartial, neutral organization. we always have concerns over the humanitarian consequences of sanctions, as they may adversely affect the medicaid situations. so considerations of humanity
8:12 am
must be prioritize and states must indeed take steps such as humanitarian exemptions to mitigate any negative impact for the delivery of impartial, neutral humanitarian action in the fields. ah, now staying on the african continent, at least 10 people have been killed in ethiopia, northern tiger region, and to air strikes this week, as violence has resumed following a 5 month low. the drone attack hit a residential area and the regional capital called mckelly. and at least 13 people were also wounded, armed conflict between the federal government and the ty gray people's liberation front began in 2020. the rebels accused soldiers from neighboring eritrea of joining ethiopian government forces in a coordinated offensive. the recent attack follows an air strike that had a kindergarten in late august that killed several children and journalist and independent analyst. samuel get a true, says that residential areas are increasingly coming under attack. the fuel pen

8:14 am
a 1000000 people have died from war and famine in ethiopia as ty, gray region. over the past 16 months, the united nation says that 5200000 people need emergency food assistance in the countries northern regions and nearly 2600000 people have been displaced with some forced into neighboring countries. humanitarian catastrophe has received little attention from the international community as the world focuses on the ukraine conflict. and the world health organization is among those groups that have raised concerns. no one can do this. it has the means or is as the world came together 2 weeks ago and did a very good job in helping ukraine to export its grains. okay. that's a good job. but why can't we also push as a global community so that the 6000000 people can get
8:15 am
put to it. medicines to be treated in telecom, to talk to their people bank to access their money and media so that they can speak, and then the wooded can norbert there, there are problems, samuel get a true again, says the conflict will have long lasting consequences and may drag the entire region into chaos. you know, this conflict once again, i can't highlighted enough how much it has truly of baked it. if you're there, no, just in the to gray region, but i'm far enough far and far beyond. there are no minutes of people not. and even the un has been saying they don't have the resources to really help us until it goes back to an era of, you know, conflicts of famine. if you don't stop, if you don't slow down this conflict in ethiopia, it would truly change the region because it has
8:16 am
a population of at least 115000000 people in what happens in it, you're back to the affects its neighboring nation. now another news, a high rise telecommunications building has caught fire in the south central chinese province, a few non. according to local authorities, the blaze has been brought under control and no casualties have been reported. the put it shows fire, engulfing the 42 story building owned by telecommunications company, china telecom, according to media reports, 35 tons of fuel was stored there. man, because anti china stance is highlighted in a new bill that could radically reshape washington's taiwan policy. if adopted the
8:17 am
u. s. would interact with the islands authorities like a recognized government and provide more financial aid. trying to foreign ministry said that the move would escalate tensions between beijing and washington to get on to the bill. seriously. breach of the u. s. commitment to china on the taiwan question and violate the one china principal. it constitutes interference in china's internal affairs, violate international law and basic norms, international relations, and the census seriously wrong signal to taiwan independence. steppers is forces chinese firm. we posted this and has launched a serious petition to the west side. indeed, with more on the bill and the current state of us china relations. here's our t caleb martin. now you would saying that was tensions rising in the pacific. all parties involved would be doing everything possible to de escalate the situation. however, that does not seem to be the case. we have a new bill passing for the senate foreign relations committee and that bill is seen
8:18 am
as a rather intense escalation with china. it provides a $6500000000.00 to taiwan in military aid. it names taiwan is a major non nato u. s. ally and it expedite arm sales to the government on taiwan. now there were 5 senators who did oppose the bill. the most vocal of them was us sen, rand paul, of kentucky. this is not a time to radically change longstanding policy without an appreciation of the consequences that may follow. now this 5 senators were out voted and it appears this bill is moving ahead. it is laughed the senate foreign relations committee, now it'll be up to the rest of the u. s. congress to determine whether or not they want to pass it into law. and then joe biden will have to decide whether or not to sign it. now it meeting is taking place of the 5 eyes and this meeting, you can bet we'll have beijing on the agenda. now the meeting is taking place at an
8:19 am
unnamed location. probably a luxury resort, somewhere in new zealand in which security in the pacific region is being discussed . and a number of us officials are playing up the idea of tension with china, of opposition to china. we have the head of the u. s. naval command, talking about how a major focus of u. s. policy needs to be opposing beijing in the southern hemisphere. we can say plainly that the united states has neglected its relationship in the south pacific and were accounting for that by engaging more deeply. the hoping concerning actions by the peoples republic of china have in the region, including the secret security arrangement with the solomon islands that have been concerning for the united states of america. and i think a concerning, also for new zealand as well. yeah, it states is also talking about putting preemptive sanctions on chinese officials in order to deter military action against the island of taiwan. we also have other calls from us officials for more sanctions and more efforts to curb beijing's
8:20 am
influence around the world. now, many are looking at china and admiring the great restraints that the country has shown. when nancy pelosi visited the island of taiwan that was largely seen as a provocation. many are now wondering how far the united states intends to go in trying china's patients on this issue and others. it's adding an extra $6000000000.00 to over the heavily armed taiwan. and it means that we are of a signal to china that we're preparing for war against to. so it's a very dangerous situation. it's an escalation in anybody's terms. what it is is using the taiwanese people bursting there is having china, an angry reaction, which of course, they will, it's actually interference in the southern part of chinese territory. but like the people of the ukraine, the united states wants to use the people of the taiwan as pawns. and it's dragging
8:21 am
other countries into it as well in the periphery to, to the area, into heighten tension. that's where the pressure comes on and to claim that they will defend taiwan when it's actually american regression board. oh, almost regression against china, which is the problem is, apostrophe of the greatest. quite a delegation of a russian med lead military alliance. the collective security treaty organization has arrived in yerevan and in an effort to de escalate tensions between neighboring former soviet republics. that's following deadly clashes between armenia and other by john r. corresponding eager donna is in your of on to follow the meeting. we've just heard from the joint staff of armenian, they have shed some light, they have shared details as to how extensive, how significant the azeri territorial games have been following of who was the
8:22 am
latest clashes on the border between armenia and the sarah. by john, i was there by john the official bark, who they have had the most success in the north eastern part of armenia, that they have managed to come into the territory of the neighboring country by about 7 and a half kilometers. according to the armine as joined staff, they are now stationed, basically the as airy forces. they have managed to gain a foothold are within about 4 or 5 kilometers away from armine as major town of jetta moke. now theory forces they have also are made into the territory of armenia on a few other parts over what is now basically a front. but there, the gains have been lesser ranging from about 500 to 1500 meters. now armenia has indeed reached out to its military allies at the collective security treaty organization. now this is an umbrella military alliance that is made up of
8:23 am
several post soviet republics and led by russia. and so we are in did, here with a mission are led by a high profile russian general. it's a monitoring mission so far. they're here to assess the situation. and indeed they have their hands full because quite frankly, speaking to the locals. here they're quite hopeful under they well they expect that they can rely on the big brother or rather big brothers who make up the collective security treaty organization. and that they can bring peace to these lands. and basically, to prevent from the skirmishes from evolving into something greater and scarier, we've also seen clashes take place in the same region along between kirk it's 10 integer. stan. so what are the latest developments there? ferguson, again, it is. it is an ally within this umbrella group so they can expect the i c s t o to solve its problems as well. and so, yeah,
8:24 am
in date they have their hands full. the leaders of both nations of project is done and carry just on. they have, they have met essentially they have agreed to deescalate so far it has, it is yet to reach the front lines where skirmishes have continued. again, these 2 nations, they have been well clashing with each other repeatedly and sporadically for years . again, again, this has so far failed to escalate into something bigger, and so far they have resorted to just boarded pleasures. but nonetheless, the situation right now is concerning, as both nations have resorted to using heavy artillery like for example, the grad miss our launch systems are so it is a significant development. and again, the so far the diplomatic efforts, they are still in the process of welling the physical tensions on the border. and again, all of that is being made within the mechanisms that are embedded with the collective
8:25 am
security treaty organization. and that's the way the news goes for this hour. thanks for watching our to international and have a great day. ah ah, ah ah ah ah, with all ah, when you get
