5:13 pm
very difficult for many of these countries. food crisis, energy, try phase sports. eliza crises are, of course something that these countries happen for you think much more than the rest of the world. but there one says on not being heard and that's what india is doing. none of this is called the attention that it dissolves in global costs. whether or not the nations is consult of frozen 1945 invented mechanism, is simply unable to articulate the wider concern some both of these singularly focused on their own little bondage to the exclusion of the well being locked in a minute. so the view was concerns perspective and priorities, all of the global se, developing countries that india has quality the in the today's session, which is organized will be little presented at the g 20 summit in september with

year's bathing winter olympics. for it's part of the world, the anti doping agencies say it's concerned with such a decision by russia and might appeal to the cause of arbitration for sport. why the idea that it must fully review the case before it can provide any additional comments on the matter? camila valley ever won a team gold medal in beijing, but the awards ceremony was cancelled after the figure skaters doping tests taken weeks before the olympics. it even started was deemed positive. sports columnist alan moore told me that water will put up a fight against russia is not guilty. verdict. it's a very well reasoned decision decision was taken with all the facts i wrote hand. especially the fact that time when she had the boy ration, you have to go because she was on the age of 16, which puts the owner's responsibility on to emily tardy and parents and cultures.

5:19 pm
a tool of british propaganda where the country doesn't actually apply such standards to itself. because the good old fashioned pretty standard when it comes to human rights is never apply to yourself. that which you seek to apply to your enemy. and the doctrine of human rights, particularly human rights, as applied to the international relations arena, is always one that is only going one way when it comes to the standard supply from the british government. the british government is still somewhat so we say saw having to give up hong kong all the way back in 1997 with the disturbances in hong kong, which the chinese authorities blamed on outside interference from the united states and britain with a degree of justification, human rights is just a language. it's a, it's a piece of branding. it's a piece of propaganda that we never apply in britain. the british government never

5:21 pm
this comes in mid escalating tensions between washington and to wrong issues that spawns several regions. the us past suspended talks to revive the international nuclear deal with iran. so i think the islamic countries test him on the negotiating table plus the u. s. has previously seized some iranian tank as sailing to venezuela. and the white house is even the keys to wrong of meddling and giving us elections. so it is already professor of political communication to wrong university believes it's time for the us to change its attitude towards iran. so the fact that the navy is actually capable of doing this is a sign that no matter how much pressure, according to that country can survive and also succeed. the fact that this is where much and a good international water raise your own in the russian navy. chinese navy navy

5:23 pm
am hara and a far region following nearly 2 years of brutal, brutal conflict that broke out between the the t p. a left which is the t gray people's liberation front, as well as the federal government of ethiopia. the peace process itself broken down into steps that will be adhered to on a certain times. and this time, as you said in your intro, it was the turn of the t p. i love to honor that part to hand over the heavy artillery to the federal government. now comes in an interesting part. when you see the foreign ministers of both france and germany, which are ordinarily some of the biggest, most powerful members of the european union coming into the fray and the 2 foreign ministers calling for, for a peace process that will not be without accountability. they're demanding that part of the use of re engagement with regards to the relations with the addis ababa
5:24 pm
is that there must be accountability for crimes that have been committed during this period. now, the relations between the european union and the government of the of yogi, i have been strained to following what, what we've noticed the line was taken by the federal government saying that they believe that the e you had taken aside with regards to, to this war that was happening in t grey. the ear itself has put a lot of pressure with regards to, to the ethiopian government. and has even gonna fight to say that they believe that the federal government is guilty of these human rights abuses. and that they suspect that there might even be more atrocities that have happened as a result of this france and germany themselves, individually. they have been using a rather soft language, considering that i think they've been banking with the idea that there will be
5:25 pm
a peace process ultimately. and it remains one of the major highlights of 2022 for the african continent in leading and, and re guiding their own problems and solving them in an african way as they say. but every stand right now, they call by the german minister for accountability and then it's only seen according to that leave her and colleague through translation. all justice. here is the german foreign minister eileen, be a book the she said i got it all. it is particularly important to prosecute the violations. we, germans, and french know this from our own experience. that reconciliation does not happen overnight, but with the prospect of justice for the victims of crimes reconciliation and lossing piece and not possible. but because this has been a bruised law and you don't have to take it from anywhere else because it's further exacerbated the feminine crisis,
5:26 pm
that has been all to buying that pod 2 of you. but of course, there's another factor to this story, which is the role played by foreign forces. and in particular here, we're talking about neighboring a retreat which fought alongside the federal government of if you now, aaron tree, i have not moved it's position even though we have a piece of chord in exit. and as the t p l a hand over heavy machinery, they still have to contend and do it at a tree and a soldier, we filled out, you pi, some of the federal areas. you cannot deny the pain that has been inflicted, particularly on some of the civilian life that has come out of the gray as they look to other areas even neighboring eritrea is the scene for safety. but paths no voice encapsulate the pain that has been there for the last 2 years than the world health organizations direct hedgerows. gabrielle says. the humanitarian crisis in
5:27 pm
te gray is more than ukraine without any exaggeration. and i said this many months ago. maybe the reason is the color of the skin of the people in te gray. this is the worst disaster on earth as we speak. i am from t grey. it is not because i am from t grey. i am saying this, that is the truth. i believe find it very funny that both the german and the frenchman, if the claim to have been very involved in the war considering what they were doing around that time last year. that was a huge focus by both governments to try and ensure energy from the continent. and that looked like something they were leading with. but apparently, now they say that they did a lot of work behind the scenes, and that they were not seeking any limelight, but in this, by the feelings of european union, they cannot portion that much of the fact says of the p. vil to their efforts only, and he theory p a base journalist on political commentator told us the west is only interested in its own economic andrea political goals.
