9:07 pm
to one and resolve as a major step towards the escalation and the region. he said that a new chapter is unfolding and that we were there will be no place for the was a unilateral policy. and instead, a new multi polar world system is taking form. the united states is losing its foothold in the region, and many and more and more countries are turning away from the united states on even we see that countries such as france is starting to think that it would be better if they remain independent from the united states and we see that countries like brazil columbia are jumping on the bandwagon are joining the new unified front formed by russia, iran and china in ditching the u. s. dollar, and instead using their own national currency as their economic transactions. so this is why nasr cannon, he said there's not gonna be any place for the us and for the washington or unilateral policy any more. what's interesting is the role played by china in this
9:08 pm
regard. as you know, it was 1st, china, which abroad the 2 sides together, sat and talked and decided to bury the hatchet after 7 years of frosty relations between to run and re all the tucson are attempting to reopen their embassies before the arrival of b. as la mc hat season do in the next 2 months. so these developments are very significant and have positive impacts on the regional developments and under regional crises. we see, we know that iran is saudi arabia used to be arch rivals. look at the you have any war for example, lead you have any war has been widely viewed as a proxy war between your want and saudi arabia. and now we see that this longstanding war, which has been ravaging for 8 years, is nearing its end in line with the prisoner exchange deal reached between saudi arabia and the subtle law movement to day 104 year many prisoners of went back home
9:09 pm
. and all of these practical steps are being taken in that direction to end the crisis and the war in the region and witness a region free of war and free of conflict. and what's interesting is that all of these developments are being marked on inside the region by the regional countries, and without any interference. by the way, i stand by the so called the united states helping hand. of course, when it comes, the a to washington, washington is a beneficiary of the any war. so the united states is reluctant to see that war coming to an end as the end of this war, me is the end of the united states. money making process. china as a close ally of saudi arabia and a close and effective buyer of iran's oil and iran is number one. economic and trade partner has held the 2 sites come together, bury the hatchet after after 7 years of frosty relations. it wrong method of a new middle east comes amid the latest development in the push. the peace in yemen,
9:10 pm
as saudi arabia has released more than 100 heathy, where the prisoners of war. the red cross says that while the exchange is a positive sign, many more families in yemen are still waiting to hear from their left ones emotions . i would describe it overwhelming joy. it has been amazing to witness this beautiful moment. of course, i saw a feminine hanging each other friends kissing each other on the forehead. children seeing their budget sometimes for the 1st time and the local hears could move into the joy. it was really beautiful to witness. and that should be sure that when purchased to the coast, they put you money before anything else. it does alleviate civilian suffering. this happened of her course. in the 60 two's we had more than 15
9:11 pm
flights that were able to to we need to facilitate to reduce however we the knowledge that more families we answer a lot of them don't have news from their loved ones. they don't know if they're detained. he's doing a good health, who, if they're even a life and family also the answers, the war in yemen. discussions with one of the what well was my harry and disaster started in 2014, between the rebels and the government, which is backed by a saudi led coalition on, by countries including the u. s. u. k. according to the united nations, more than 20000000. yeah, many people require humanitarian assistance with 80 percent of the country lacking access to food or basic services who had cross spokes person. fatima sasa again says that one of the main problems in the conflict is the lack of global media coverage for 2 men. for the 1st time and 11 years has been under funded
9:12 pm
for the international come each of the rest across the way. now all appreciate all of the word are currently underfunded. sure, of course it doesn't mean you know, it's a very dangerous cocktail to have humanity in the need raising and funding be creating . so we're hoping that the international community doesn't forget about chairman. there is a positive momentum and a pollution like this one. do send a big message, a hope and jimmy to very leaving to see it's very beautiful moments of happiness in such a syringe. crisis. however, you know yemen. he's not making the headlines anymore. and we shouldn't forget about yemen because even if the conflicts and today they need the immense church. she, we, we to keep working here together. we partner from the human suffering of the you back there to sit down,

has been assaulted inside his home. and cartoon that's according to e, u foreign policy chief at u. s. a burrell, who provided no further details of the incident a few hours ago that you and bass that are in sudan was assaulted in his own residency. this constitutes a gross violation of the vienna convention security of diplomatic premises. and staff is the primary responsibility of sudanese authorities and an obligation under international law. and clashes between the sudanese on military on the r i sat group have left more than a 180 civilians dead and 10 times more wounded since saturday. as, according to the latest figures from the un. some fresh footage from the sydney's capital costume shows on t aircraft guns firing volleys of rounds into the night sky. and at about for the cities and forwards, which has been heavily contested by the warring sides for days with no confirmation on who controls the size of the moment. amid the ongoing chaos,
9:14 pm
some footage is shown military jets firing missiles at grounds. tockets with other images, highlighting massive destruction in the vicinity of the country's capital. consume . the rival military forces attacked each other on saturday with both sides, blaming the other for striking 1st neighbouring chance. has closed his border with sit down with several countries, including russia, indeed, ships calling for a ceasefire. the league of arab states has also urged an immediate end to the fighting and of his mediation to resolve the crisis. despite the ongoing military violence, washington insists that now is the right time for a transition to civilian rule incident. it's a fragile situation. there are other actors that may be pushing against that, that progress. but this is a real opportunity to finally carry for the civilian la transition. and one that we in and other countries are trying to are to bolster leslie lincoln is not the 1st
9:15 pm
u. s. official to weigh in on the situation in sudan back in 2021. following the latest who in the african country usa department spokesman ed price called for the restoration of civilian rule in sit down. with that statement defined a transitional period announced by the sudanese government of the time or currently the international community including russia, the e u, and the arab league, calling for an immediate cease fire in sedan, while the u. s. pushing for a handover of power. despite the military conflicts with disgusted with ortho and historian gerald hall, now many thanks for joining us on. the program is good to see you. now the fighting in sudan has been waiting for 3 days now. no cease fire inside was your assessment of the current situation there. well, it's on a knife edge. i'm afraid to say that is to say, scores have been till particularly civilians. the dispute arises from the fact that
9:16 pm
you have the special forces, the so called r s f, who have been accused of being implicated in human rights violations in the dark, poor region. the region of western sudan that is larger than spain. recall that the international criminal court already has call for the extradition of a former student. these leaders speaking a mr. alpha sheer and there is some fear amongst the rest of that some of their leaders, me wind up in the doc. keep in mind as well that sudan districts teach at least slighted its neighbors include egypt, which is a close ally of the united states and terms of military alliances. it is also a butting libya, which was the subject of the nato and us sponsored bombing in 2011 recall as well that and the central african republic, due south of sudan,
9:17 pm
washington has become quite hysterical about the role or the lead role. i should say of the boston or group, which is, you know, has headquarters in russia. united states is not on par or referee secretary of state lincoln with see me to suggest in the remarks you just played. but it's more like a player. recall that it was the state under us president george w bush that push for the secession of south sudan, which is a wash in petroleum. it successfully seceded, seceded from the water to dead, and it's been mired in unrest ever since. i recall as well that some decades ago in the aftermath of suit leads independence of the mid 1950. it was the united states that pushed for the isolation, if not the bludgeoning of the sudanese communist party, which was seen as a nickel to washington's cold war ambitions. and was
9:18 pm
a powerful political force in the wake of the marginalizing of the sudanese communist party. like a 5th law, you saw the arising of a certain religious zealotry which manifested in the 1990s, particularly when the late or some been lawton, was said to be residing in the capital cartoon which led then you as president. mister clinton to send cruise missiles in sudan supposedly in retaliation, but actually destroying sudanese manufacturing facilities. so this is a very dire situation that's unfolding. and i think that washington would be well advised to bow to the influence of the african union, headquartered a neighboring addis ababa, the opiate, the 4 dozen plus numbers of the african union, headquartered in order for baba rather than interfering and suit sedans, internal affairs, confessing that washington is calling for charles for civilian. wal,
9:19 pm
everybody. i was just calling for a simple si, fi is a transition to a suit, to civilian will. even a possibility now, and those who don't actually have some sort of government in waiting will obviously washington's diplomats either or not advising the secretary of state properly. or there are some sort of hidden agenda, which is often prevalent in the us state department. perhaps washington, as newspaper headlines have suggested, is seeking to cut a deal with one or another faction within the military. and thereby help to further isolate the sudan prim it's natural allies in the african union, not to mention its friends and international community, including russia and china. really appreciate you speaking to today. thank you so much for your time. ortho,

an historian gerald horn. across in nigeria ation, employees have launched the 2nd slide this year in protest says, poor working conditions and low pay countries, airports will be closed. 42 days. on friday, the unions announced they will work on monday and tuesday due to unpaid risk. the union represents pilots, engineers, control town operators and other key industry workers. the organization is also threatened to an indefinite strike if their demands are not met. me, walden, i, jerry, a employee as consultative association or an e. c a. his will in the countries government against heating the advice of the international monetary fund. that's also the i m. s, suggested nigeria should raise taxes to pay back the country's foreign debt, which is expected to keep rising. any attempt to consider a tax hike with great more burden. some taxpayers each may defeated any attempt to
9:21 pm
wait in the tax debt, as taxpayers would consider tax avoidance measures. there will be massive capital flight and the drive for direct foreign investment could be defeated. the i m f also suggested nigeria phase out its pet tool subsidies and redirect the funding to targeted subsidies like health and education according to the any c c. a. however, the private sector in nigeria is already overwhelmed by multiple burdens. the director of the graduate school of business at the university of zombie as a z i. m. s. advice stems from expired economic books without consideration for africa's economic struggles. the i am, if already has been, is being received. we skipped to them in africa, africa. we'd say i am if policies on the lead eighty's and the ticket, the main to maintain that structure. deafening program left you know,
9:22 pm
a lot of countries in debt. so raising taxes for nigeria now is basically sending them to the grid because it's as difficult for businesses and also i included to be able to afford to do business and also afforded living, i mean, to, to say, because of the high taxes. so the, i miss, you know, dimensions are quite, you know, out of an expired because it's booked book, those places member which, you know, in african countries because they do not take into us that isn't the burden of doing business and trying to construct landlords by households in africa, and while the i m f once money back from nigeria, the fund is dishing out must have some fee ukraine. last month the i m f agreed, a $15000000000.00 support package for kias. ukraine has thus become the 1st war
9:23 pm
torn country that the i m f is lending funds to. it would also be one of the largest packages ukraine has received since the conflicts began. they've been the hub both again. so it's unfair ukraine to be given such large sums while africa remains neglected. there monday, monday, that tells me not to do without any conditions whatsoever, which is 15 be on us dollars. and when you look at can do, for example, like we said, simulate, did, or didn't be done by the way, external did, which they declared by monday for them. i'm going to be given 1300000000. so it looks quite unfair for us are going to be to be lumped on a lot of clinicians that have an executive impact on both businesses and also. but other than just getting payments, that's an input driven balance. the balance of payment for the money is intended.
9:24 pm
so across the continent from south africa to moral. there is a huge, just disgusts and discordant about their unfair judgements that your group has received compared to countries. for example, exam as the us led invasion of iraq marks as 20th anniversary this spring. we recall one of the most controversial events off of the war that will reveal with bi weekly leaks, co founder julian, a songs and april 2010. a video named collateral murder showed footage of a group including 2 royces journalists being shot by us helicopter 12 people were killed in that incidence ortiz, steve sweeney spoke to a man whose relatives were among the victims. they was here, the 2 royces jernace were among those killed. as the u. s. apache helicopter open fire were unarmed iraqi civilians. the crew laughed as people lay on the ground
9:25 pm
dying. at least 12 people were killed and 2 children among the wounded in 2 separate attacks. a estimator with, that's a weapon. with yours, 18547 sales children became orphans. some people lost their children and others lost brothers and fathers. we know about this because a wiki, big founded judy or assange, who published footage of the attack in 2010. but it was an inconvenient truth for washington, and the sound is paying a heavy price, locked up in britain's high security by almost prison. he faces 175 years in american jail under the espionage act. iraqi say that is bush and blair that should be behind bars instead of judy and sounds. that sounds very well. assange is
9:26 pm
innocent. he simply revealed the truth. he should be released from prison. it is blair, and bush should be behind bars, danbury, the u. s. move to cover up the truth making excuses to justify the attack. the pentagon issue device to adjourn this to identify themselves and inform the military of their whereabouts effectively blaming the royce his crew for their own death. members of the press to be encouraged or required to wear, identifying vests or distinctive body. alma coalition forces to be notified when members of the press are operating in their area of responsibility. washington's efforts to hide the truth about the crimes committed during the iraq war continued today. the u. s. claim to be fighting for freedom and democracy can any, must really be free as long as the sounds remains behind balls. while the war was based on the false pretext of weapons of mass destruction in the country and lead
