they lacked investment and now they're seeing that these brand new apartments. very, very nice looking, a partners they be given the case, these free, of course, and there's been schools and hospitals redeveloped, of course, ukrainian forces were, are using those as military bases. the schools they had soldiers placed in them. they placed military hardware in those residential areas. now this comes, of course, as the, these leak documents from the, from the pentagon. allegedly, we have to say that we haven't had the confirmation of this at this stage, but there was a lot of speculation on the spring offensive. now the news week, the u. s. publication, newsweek published over the weekend said that the m, the spring offensive was planned for april the 30th. and this was backed by a disappointment. she hardware from the u. u. s, but whether that's happening now, nor is open to speculation, a number of the international volunteers. these mercenaries that have been fighting on the ukrainian side, i monitor and observe very closely on social media. a large number of those have
9:08 am
returned back to the u. k. and they're saying that spring offensive is now not taking place, but for now, russia's military operation continues. i'm president putin's visit to the from i'm will be very welcome to africa. the soon is army, and a para military group called the rapids of ports. forces have reportedly agreed to a 24 hour humanitarian to st. evacuate civilians and tend to the ended. the un says that a 185 people have been killed and another 1800 wounded. miss surge in violence. in recent days. earlier the ar assess leave to announce the commitment aunt with and said that the decision was directly influence. why a conversation with the you offensive state and appeal from other countries. the conflict broke out the 4 days ago and had left residence, dealing with how cuts,
9:09 am
food shortages and closed hospitals. the international red crescent, humanitarian group has warned that now it's quote, almost impossible, to deliver any humanitarian aid to the national capital. we managed to speak to a local journalist. nurses have been intensified actually day after day. so as we need to know the 1st day this new morning, the last is actually in its height at the moment the us, if just this one is a, is on the facebook page saying that it has control. for me, it looks as it has moved in advance actually in this world around the office though, you know that a patient
9:10 am
that was okay, that was shut down because of where i'm because of a, a, a victim of the injuries. and if you go by and out of those companies that indicate the international and local and it went to 3 and it goes to, you know, we didn't do by the way, the injuries and the dangerous situation on the ground. an american diplomatic convoy has been attacked, as well as the european union ambassadors to cindy. you have only condemned the incidence of their state and they've been fed that initial intelligence reports point to opposition forces being behind the attack on the americans. i
9:11 am
can confirm that yesterday we had an american diplomatic convoy that was fired on all of our people are safe and unharmed. but this action was reckless. it was a responsible and of course unsafe a few hours ago that you and bassett 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 a primary responsibility of sudanese authorities and an obligation under international law. we spoke with a specialist on african affairs gerald horne, who says that the ongoing attempted to incident may have a western baccha 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 whereby you,
9:12 am
us back civilians will be catapulted into power in heart tomb. and somehow the military forces will be sideline. i think this is a very, a ill advised maneuver if that is in fact what's happening recalled that it was united states under u. s. president george w bush. the push for the secession of south sudan, which is a wash in petroleum. it successfully seceded, seceded from the lot of sudan, and has been marked in unrest ever since. recall as well that some decades ago, in the aftermath of sudanese and dependence of the mid 19 fifties, it was the united states that pushed for the isolation. if not the bludgeoning of the sudanese communist party which was seen as inimical to washington's cold war ambitions and was a powerful political force. perhaps washington is newspaper headlines that
9:13 am
suggested as seeking to cut a deal with one or another faction within the military. and thereby help to further isolate the sudan from its natural allies in the african union. not to mention it's friends and is the national community, including russia and china. and i would urge mister blinkin to bow to the influence of the african union, headquartered a neighboring ethiopia, which is much closer to the ground and much closer to the forces who are now fighting each other in sudan. ah, miss wrap up now, all african so it was doing business in africa and needs to and will become easier . so say well than either of the ongoing african continental free trade area. business forum. now, breaking down that to an mo, from cape town event, his artes close wanted, caribou was at the the africa continental free trade agreement. business forum
9:14 am
is in full swing, giving a chance for africa to reflect upon his current position, as well as the pressing challenges that are still holding back the movement and freedom of trade in goods and services on the continent for africa to truly realize the full implementation of the promise of the free trade area, more countries need not only sign up, but also have their parliament rectify the deal. there are $47.00 african countries represented at this forum, but only $37.00 out of the $54.00 have signed up and rectified the deal. a lesson that south africa and madge area. i still coming to terms with we working on a project with that, with both governments in south africa, nigeria and private sector on how we work more closely together and leverage more opportunity. and what we've really found, the big a deficit is, is information and also relationships. we don't have both countries are heavily
9:15 am
regulated that our regulators have not met each other, even though a lot of our businesses are doing are invested in nigeria. so we're looking at actually high starting, and a lot of it is starting at the base level and it's getting people to meet each other in the 3 years since the africa, continental free trade agreement was in, acted only 13 percent of the commitments made by countries have been implemented, but now the focus shifts to the private sector and businesses to give for momentum to the trade agreement. free car has got potential because the african population is going to quadruple by 2100. because africa is the fastest growing continent because we're sitting with 1300000000 people, 60 percent off, which i young people, you know, so the market is right. it is absolutely the right market for the african businesses to actually see how they never really actually cultivate, to leverage is opportunity. business needs to speak as one formidable voice. even
9:16 am
though trade amongst african countries is currently at 60 percent. it's still leaves much to be desired. one of the main goals is to create more jobs. for the hundreds of millions of africans, still out of work, we would like to see, i forgot to become one of the preferred to investment destination. and therefore, we believe if we really put our energy together as africans, we can be able to, to create more jobs. the continental free tre deal is coming into its own, on the. busy edge of the 2nd brick summit to be held on the african continent, south africa will as chair, bring in more african countries into the breaks family wide out conversations and africa based be ready to leverage the opportunity. terrible. it has a lot of tea in cape town. if i'm better to russia,
