7:02 am
would africa needs the solidarity and co operation, not confrontation? no country, no people have the right to force african countries and their people to take sides . africa should be a platform for international cooperation, not an arena for competition between major countries. africa refuses to be seen as an arena for competing influence. we're open to cooperation and partnerships with everyone as long as their respect our principles, our priorities now interests. the partnership we have with china is built on this principles. the chinese i talked about has stopped 1st and ethiopia, next table visit. i got bon angola, benign and egypt. he's basically highlighting the importance of the partnership between beijing and the entire continent. now, africa correspondent, catabolic tattler has more on this. what is a high level state of a meet and greet? well, as you know, he is a brand new foreign minister of china,
7:03 am
and he follows in a long line of traditions for chinese foreign ministers, especially with berry, with their relationship to the african continent. now this is mister keane's 1st visit and is an opportunity for him to, to outlay some of china's plans and also strengthen economic ties with the 5 african countries that he will be visiting. but of course, he kicks off the trip if you will, by by 1st least begin to the chairperson of the african union. mr. mohammed 14 mohammed, he is particularly looking to strengthen africa's position, especially among the calls that have been made for african union to be included as a permanent member of the g 20 group of nations. and of course, this is an opportunity to speak about other modalities with regards to africa's place in international fora, such as the united nations and the world trade organization. but of course,
7:04 am
the vivid is really more than just a symbolic visit if you will. there's an opportunity for china to engage with the said countries, namely at the opium. kane has played a very important role there with regards to bringing about peace, a use of their soft power if you will. and g o p are following the, the outbreak of conflict in war in that, in that country will be looking for chinese investment to farrah, solidify and rebuilds. the country. and africa wide really has been, has been experiencing a credit crunch. following the coven 19 pandemic. and mr. king has been really at the eo at length to say that china will and remains a very important partner, is very much trained to counter the american narrative that says that china is using what they call a palace. diplomacy where using investments and debt to accept african countries.
7:05 am
and as they, it's very cynical because we know that african countries owe more debt to, to private fund managers, to private institutions, all of which come from the west. and that is the largest denominated foreign currency that, that africa still struggles with china is reading my, trying to, to say that the united states should not be looking at china as an enemy on the continent. and he should not be using the african continent as a platform for competition, but rather development in the name of africans and african states. and that's how they see their relationship. these of the, the americans who are very conditional and come to the continent with expectations before they even put down any kind of traumas. and wow, cooperation between china and african nations is certainly on the rise. the u. s. says that cooperation is actually destabilizing the continent. the us defense secretary made those claims last month that a summit of african leaders in washington were witnessing the purity,
7:06 am
expand its footprint, ah, a on, on a continent on a daily basis. and that creates problems that will be eventually destabilizing if they're not already. or we see russia continuing to peddle cheap weapons, employing mercenaries across the continent. and so the combination of those activities by those 2 countries, i think for that bears watching. and certainly i think their influence, again, can be the stabilizer. and according to our chinese affairs expert, after long, he says his country's approach to africa is more holistic than that of certain western professional partners. thomas engagement with africa. it's very different from the west and looks at the relationship in a holistic way. he emphasis is always been on building infrastructure and it was capacity building for development help the these countries that develop and also of
7:07 am
course the workforce. ready closer ties between china and africa, their so called democracy as defined by the united states is only a facade channel to excerpt, americans in france to impose the americans more go on on other countries. regardless of the m, the stages of development, the internal political situation, the geography and so on, so forth. the african countries and other developing countries. they are more in debt to weston, commercial lenders, multiple times more than time. thomas become much more a prize and allow, in some sort of that relief, but also taking into account all the stakeholders interest. but overall, these loans are here, as i say, it wants building infrastructure within the country and connecting these countries
7:08 am
to other neighboring countries. it would bring a lot of economic progress and as the multi polar world continues to blossom, china and africa are not the only ones challenging the current global order. but india is a finance minister, believes it's obsolete to divide countries degree in the 1st world in the 3rd world . and all nations must be treated equally. now she made those comments at the voice of the global south summit. it's a 2 day event based in new delhi, with more than a 100 countries represented from asia, africa, and south america. we strongly believe that this should not be any 1st word or a 3rd word. you missed contingency. but just one word with a shared understanding. what a common future you know, firstly, why is india hosting on this today?
7:09 am
we're sure some it ways of global south. it's essentially because india wants to take forward the ideas and views that it gets from the countries as a global south and take it forward on the g 20 platform. i went in there, of course, so we'll be hosting will lead as i later in the year in september. but when we're talking about global south, which is largely the developing world, also largely under representative on the global map. so to see i went in there wants to do is it wants to take ideas and views from that and take it on the bill. the platform. and of course, india feels that it is at a unique juncture at this time, considering it will be of course, hosting war leaders. the to the c. r often becomes very important because as far as the global south is concerned, it has been impacted by the conflict and ukraine and the subsequent western sanctions. more than perhaps the rest of the world. and which is why it becomes more important, in fact, feminist or 9th or more the spoke earlier to while ago. and then our little session
7:10 am
listening in bed. nonsense, judy. these subordinate each other in our fight against foreign rule. we can do it again. and this is judy the grid on your work order. baghlan shaw, the very brown abra, our cities. that was mr. moore, the talking about creating a new world order where the voice of gilba salt should also be given equal importance. in fact, as far as the summit is concerned, we are seeing participation from several countries, also the prime minister of long, long beach as well as the president, she lanka ran to become a saying he will be participating in the studio. summit are also, as far as the other countries are concerned, that i'm going to be several sessions at ministerial levels as well. of finance
7:11 am
ministry as well as education and environment, other sectors that we are talking about. but it becomes extremely important. this particular summit, the today summit wise of global south and that india has taken initiate, evolve also because india feels that as a developing country, each can be present. the voice off the global south, largely at the world map. citizens big developments now from the front lines of don boss or the head of the russian power military company. wagner has confirmed that around 500 ukrainian soldiers were killed as russia gain control of the strategically important city of solar doubt. in the don't ask republic, i confirmed that so the door has been cleared of ukrainian troops and is now under our full control. civilians were evacuated, ukrainian troops refused to be taken into custody, were eliminated, or on 500 people were killed. the wagner group has also been combing through
7:12 am
underground mines previously used by ukrainian troops to store ammunition, taking a solid. r enables russian forces now. so basically, yvonne's on nearby to the next major city of trauma, also known as black moves. and that is a vital transport hub that would theoretically pave the way to other key cities and full rush and control over that of the don't. yet, republican well, meantime, far, far away from the front lines. russian forces have been removing land mines left behind by ukrainian troops and the once in battle. city of not awful as those explosives still pose a threat. it's all corresponded. roman cancer. listen metallurgy plants in the mario pole. golds a lead shower was fried back in spring. however, russian sappers are still finding mines, say here ads. this plans are right now. they're working on discovering lowe's mines . people continued to lose their lives here as their words and whining according to

7:15 am
throwing away their military clothes and they were changing into civilian at sire trying to leave the area unnoticed. from here, as i understand, many of them have retreated into us or sold where they consequently surrendered to the russian forces. it will take a very long time before the entire plan say, here it's elijah and as of thought, are completely of free of all the minds that were left by the ukrainian military people. the russians sappers will continue working here on the daily basis risk in their lives and a successful day for them when they discover all of the munition and destroys at this field. now these things are happening on a daily basis from on quarter of artie. murray walden ask republic a

7:17 am
w. e. one of germany's largest energy companies from mining the coal underneath this village. and because the climate activists have been here so long, they are very well organized, very well prepared for a police intervention. steven put up barricades and brick walls and some of the doors and the windows here. and when the police operation started yesterday, there was some violent escalation with some of the activists throwing stones and even molotov cocktails towards the advancing police forces. since then, the situation has been more stable with the police officers picking off these climate activists. one by one or from the rooftop thought of the 3 houses that they built or whatever other places they decided to glue themselves too. but even though the police has said that they are advancing faster than originally expected, they will be busy for at least another couple days because the climate activist
7:18 am
showed no sign of leaving their positions voluntarily. and the police is actually working here 247 because they know that if they were ever to leave the side, other climate activists would come and retake the positions that were already cleared out. all right, dominic right now that are corresponded at our sister channel artie deutsche. thank you there also be no more anti government violence and protest and per room is processed in a resort city on the cusp of the and these mountains are portly left. now, 6 police officers and more than a dozen demonstrators wounded, a protest just tried to take over the cities airport is very often used for shuttling tourists to the ancient income side of much you, peach, you. now they have been an anti government demonstrations throughout the country in recent weeks, they've largely been in support of the previous president who was ousted last month and taken into custody after he attempted to adult parliament. more than 40 people reported having killed him at the chaos we heard from our local journalist

7:20 am
proven to be pro regime actions instead of independent citizen acts. despite all of these, the number that continues to make goals are teeth and dialogue which contradict her actions. and actually the statement of her prime minister by that which is we will not let them retiring to the broadcasters around the country. the executive power hasn't taken any responsibility for all the killings and the people who have been hurt by the armed forces and the police as well. in the meantime, the congress of the republic still legislation in favor of the interests of the corporations and big companies. in detriments off the peruvian population right now, this seems to be the actual background and reason for the massacre that they do is experiencing 20 past the hour here at moscow of frogs has insisted that it's
7:21 am
not meddling in the internal affairs of its former west african colony but keena fastened after his ambassador was expelled. a senior french diplomat in visiting the country has emphasized the importance of maintaining a partnership despite those concerns. well, he is what some of the locals have to say about this. reference to something i see france feels threatened in burkina faso. that's why it's sent to minister here. i believe that relations between burkina and france are no longer in good shape. and paris is trying to catch up. but i think it's a bit too late. the call is quite normal, that france believes that the keena faster is its property, but it's no longer like the cane. a faster is independent front, understands that it can lose influence over became faster. on the anti french sentiment this here, it spread in day by day, and it's a concern for france. but in a foster called the french ambassador had leave the country last month and made
7:22 am
a rising anti french sentiment. the african nation experience to cool within the past year, and currently more than a 3rd of the country remains outside of the control of the government. of france. meantime, has a few 100 soldiers based, but also to help fight against insurgents. meanwhile, in iran, there's was have been interruption of outrage aimed at france. hundreds of demonstrators in the nation nations capital have spoken out against the french magazine that insulted best supreme leader. demonstrators gathered in front of the french embassy into iran, burning flags, and calling for an apology. that was in reaction to the french political magazine. surely, abdul publishing a caricature of iran's ayatollah how many are frances foreign ministers, shrugged off the concerns, sang. the satire is protected by freedom of speech. meanwhile, inter on some of the protesters have demanded. the french embassy be closed. the paris is special apology. well, my niece,
7:23 am
this is not the 1st time we demand that officials closed this embassy. they can return when they learn to respect iranian laws. there is no need for them to be here while they insult islam, our profit, and our leader that is not acceptable for us. we demand the authorities and this, and give them an ultimatum. huh. the french government has insulted our leader and religious authority through that publication. it shows that they are angry with our lee. then we come here to say that we're said, ordinarily there are the photos i am here because the shirley of door magazine has insulted my country's leader. and among the closure of that magazine's office by the french government, i demand an official apology by the french president healthcare workers. in garza, i have driven a convoy of ambulances along the israeli border blaring their sirens will in protest at israel's restrictions on medical imports from palestine. a israel has imposed bands on goods that it says can be used for military purposes. palestinian
7:24 am
officials say that includes x ray machines and other diagnostic devices and violation of fundamental human rights to medical care. we heard may a senior official, the palestinian health ministry who says the embargo has put intensive care patients at heightened risk. and um, so be on it on with the letter. these really occupation deprives patients and garza of the rights to treatment as it blocks the supplies of x ray equipment and prevents access to westbank areas to obtain treatment. israel presents itself as a civilized society to the world. but as a criminal law, it uses all means to harass the people of gaza and make their lives miserable. and of a sam on the high pseudonym, it's okay, there's now treatment or medication for this illness and gaza. i've inquired at every hospital, all the doctors told me that they can do nothing. they said they don't have the right equipment. they advised troubling abroad for treatment, but the financial situation and gus is miserable. responded to steve. so say
7:25 am
b who heads the palestine children's relief fund. if a decades he's helped finance treatments with thousands of children with cancer in the west bank. he says that that situation in palestine presents an array of challenges for the local residents and not just regarding health care to very difficult situation when you review it from all aspects. whether it's a political aspect where there's a lack of any progress in bringing any type of resolution to the palestinian israeli conflict. it's a complicated and challenging issue for palestinians economically with very high unemployment and the challenges of trying to support their families. living under extreme economic and political conditions and of course on a humanitarian level, the lack of resources and the lack of freedom of movement may make it very challenging and difficult for people to have the type of treatment and access to treatment that they need. we have as an organization, provided a huge amount of humanitarian aid to palestinians by the millions of dollars that we've built to cancer departments for children who are suffering from this terrible
7:26 am
disease. and we've trained dozens of doctors and treated thousands tens of thousands of children with all kinds of medical conditions that they could not get locally. well, it's already been a tough year as 5 palestinians, including 3 kids are reported killed by israeli forces. a 21 year old palestinian man was killed by gunfire during an israeli raid on a west bank. refugee camp. and residence of god are also complain. they've been left with a lack of water, poor sanitation, and therefore higher exposure to disease. meantime, one is ready, human rights group has said that at least 150 palestinians, what killed in the west bank, just lost ya help the israel, the new israeli government, where any government in the world can distinguish between helping children get medical care and humanitarian support and politics, obviously not all governments do that, but i am hoping that any new government in israel or anywhere in the world will be able to make this distinction. plenty of americans and people over the world who
7:27 am
support freedom for the palestinian people. i don't let the government policy of any government give you the impression that this reflects the people. and therefore it's important to remember that the us government policy or any government policy doesn't necessarily reflect the will of the people. it's a very complicated issue. people don't get accurate information about what is actually happening on the ground. i can tell you that when we bring doctors from overseas, particularly from europe and most particularly from the united states to come and work as physicians. but then they also see what are the conditions that palestinians live under in the west bank and gaza. they always become very moved from an emotional point of view and also very, very concerned that their government and the media does not give an accurate description of what the real conditions are that palestinians live under. that will just about wrap up this i was program, had life from moscow, an ot he international from all of us here. thank you for sharing
7:28 am
7:29 am
a lot of, you know, what if i told you talk to was more than just a sport. maybe even an art for philosophical, even a came, is the professor and we came to ask them why they want everything, the hockey messed up with a game is incredible. it's all about creativity. so again, so because everybody later so as the patient want to be a normal one to back ah ah
