12:05 pm
as well as its allies, is stronger than ever. if there is a situation the international community can not condone such as any large scale attack on civilians, massacre or serious violation of the laws of war. it might be difficult for us to insist only on humanitarian or financial support. these hostility is still escalating. washington seems determined to ring its allies for weapons. no matter how reluctant they may seem. ayesha as always takes its own steps. there are new people willing to help our enemies, south korean president you and suck your said his state is ready to supply weapons to the key of regime. that's as until recently the south terrains fervently assured that the possibility of supplying lethal weapons to key of was completely excluded . i wonder what the residence of this country will say when they see the latest samples of russian weapons at their closest neighbors, are partners from the dpr k,

12:07 pm
was behind the cummings. mister prosecutor general of the appellate cause of bungie . i instruct you to initiate criminal proceedings. elements of the cbc are presumed to be responsible for murder, terrorism, crimes against humanity. attacks on state security, looting and destruction of property to be punished in accordance with the stipulations of the criminal court. while the justice ministry really did not leave any stone unturned, they saying that following a month in quest to look into the deaths of the 9 chinese nationals which worked in the chim bowl or mine, in the central african republic have really found themselves in jeopardy. and this follows a series of incidents such as this one with regards to foreign nationals with mining interest in the central african republic. when the said incident
12:08 pm
happened back in the 19 bag on the 19th of march earlier this year the the c p c. as it were, this rebel conglomerate came out with the statement earlier that day saying that they believe that the russian private military group wagner was behind such. now that of course goes contrary to why the 2 are there. are government hired wagner to begin with. it was to bolster the security within the country to train some of the a soldiers within the national army of the central african republic, but also to god and the mining interests that have been secured by various companies around the world. now this was purely disputed by generally everybody who had known this to be the modus operandi of the sad rebel groups within the country which have traditionally control de vos swedes of land and have continued
12:09 pm
their incessant a text or an international mining interest in that country. but the russians were also quick to come out of the state, been that really echoed along the lines of what must the she, she ping, the president of china. had ilia said that these perpetrators must be met with the fullest extent of the law and must be punished accordingly. we strongly condemned the criminal actions of the militants of the legal armed groups whose victims are civilians. we hope that the perpetrators of this barbaric act will be identified and punished. we express our sincere condolences to the chinese side and the families of the victims. this is all part of the great us a hell story if you will, because you look at where central african republic is. it's surrounded by countries such as sudan, which point in case has become hot again in terms of its own internal conflict. and in the south, it is bordered by the d r. c, which has of course not known pieces,
12:10 pm
are the movements of the m, 23 rebel groups, particularly towards the east of the d, r c. and the fear here is that really africa could move from a position of securing stability, at least with in, if you appear to having another hot conflict around the central belt of africa becoming a new area where guns again ablaze and pushing further the idea and the goal of the african union to silence the guns on the continent by 2030. and that is where these revel groups, if you will come into the fray. the real question is, who continues to sponsor these revel goods? and of course, you know, if, if that guess interest is really to secure these mining interests of the gold mines of the diamond mines, why would it be in their interest to,
12:11 pm
to really bring upon bloodshed on chinese foreign investment? particularly when one looks at the closeness and coordination that must go and beijing have continued to have the last month i. li, says the insurgents, i've been trying to bury the truth under unfounded accusations against the wagner group. haven't. we don't know who is leading to make up the government out of the a position to put into government. so they wanted to become legion of what they have done. what we can do that might have done just thing and they. busy wanted to let us know what we like, what like other countries in africa. what's happening whenever direction is to try to think to make. busy good things,
