the, the, the crisis talks over the situation in nice year of ultimate and deadlines loop for the post presidents release, the retreat sheets lead to a neighboring nigeria to the side on the course of action. while locals in the crew hit country reject any part of intervention, they don't have any solutions to offer us. they should lets us evolve with our solutions. let them work together with us here and find a favorable outcome. in my opinion, it's necessary to go through negotiations to have an exchange with the rebels in order to be able to agree. otherwise, the sanctions are not up to the rebels, but they take the sanctions as against the population. an internal report by

london's foreign office submits hundreds of thousands of women's lives in the developing world of the product. risk of the new k slashes. it's global, ate something at the same time. billions continue to be poured into ukraine by the way and with the us and of china exchanging site showed up with a lucrative, semi conductor industry. we looked at how corporations in both countries see ways to keep doing business, the premier, catching the program from today across the world. welcome to the global use, run it up here on our t introduction. as we begin the, our with development surroundings nice. your defense shapes from the west african regional block equal was, are missing in neighboring nigeria to discuss the situation and the crew hit

country. well, reserving the possibility they say of resorting to force last week they issued an ultimatum to monday night. here's ice, the president be reinstated within 7 days. but the rebels, the or how so far not responded the un has endorsed the equal was grouping's actions. we are supporting. yeah. what the add, the order process is conducted by airports. and this will be the line, the decision alpha use force if necessary. it's, it's not that you and the address it's, uh, uh it was the decision of dispute that there was want me to do the transitional governments of working a fast. so and molly, one that any military intervention against new share would be tantamount a declaration of war against working a fast. so and molly denounced the persistence of this region organizations and imposing sanctions, the type of a, the suffering of the people and jeopardize this period of pan african as,

as eco at certain incentive students are made to bring posts at present by them back to follow up monday, and we'll keep that fossil of flexing their military muskets, freight thing inclusion of war. if thing spider allowed self control. and when it cool was high, totally decided to easily use your full draft extinction. where, for example, of a countries financial accounts and the closure of land and at borders book, you know, money in guinea, all countries led by leader as that came to power of to cool on heading to refer to as what google and by my corporal mise, to retaliate against anyone who attracts. yeah, i mean chief of nigeria says that's 2 steps waiting for the mission. get rid of critical situation with a key question. we leave it to face after the deadline. seems to be 1st practice

vocational trace. it isn't in these yet. i strongly recommended by the cab they'll say, basically visual assuming for as we international, that credit is on for and as colored ways. and we will up to what to do. yes, equal was sent a piece delegation to nigeria to talk with rebels on wednesday, saying they'll use military force only as a last resort. the alliance has a history of involvement in crises impacting member nations. at least 7 cases in the past 3 decades have received the u ends and door spent with piece of chord sign during those missions. seldom less than we heard from west african local to share their views on the sanctions imposed on leisure. on the early rest, the rest of military intervention this up we think is the last thing that's everywhere. there are problems at home in the west, even in front of the have problems. but the guys that don't cable their problems.

they only brought the coast always on channels all over the world. so if, well suffering from us to work to find solutions to get out of it. if they don't have any solutions to offer us, they should lets us involved with our solutions. let them work together with us here and find a favorable outcome bone for most a song. so to me, the sanctions are really illegal. in my opinion, it's necessary to go through negotiations to have an exchange with the rebels in order to be able to agree otherwise. the sanctions are not up to the rebels, but they take the sanctions as against the population. we can see it is up to the population because they are the majority who will be most affected by the sanction . some of the 3 be in group. i the to the place sanctions each time there was an interruption by the army in the democratic process. this situation shows very well that the kobus heads of state do not defend the interest of the african people only their own interests. while the journalists we spoke to who covers the region of the

lord, save a potential intervention, raises a lot of questions over intent. as the west african economic block, repeatedly warned over taking up arms. right now we understand that there's a meeting going on and off the job with. i'm on the air force i'm minutes we had read expects, invited me, you know, the cool in the share wouldn't be in full costs. and also we'll see some from up slightly batteries coming out of the tv and molly book you in a past. so you know, back in these are and st. broadening any attempt to be introduced. foreign interventions of foreign military. you can be sure, i would also mean that, you know, acro, as, or, you know, as a foreign or the west and support are trying to declare a war. this is not the 1st time. indeed, the f west would be intervening and member functions that have seen pools. basically, experts are saying that there's something obviously different about the school because ad for us is, is willing to introduce for us. i think around 5 countries in the region. so

as far as members who are now lead the countries that are now led by the military ad, 888. we will not be surprising to see that these countries want to come together. these countries wants to support each other, you know, and um, this is actually boring it out for you then sees also what i said, i called the lease. and what i said was, i'm at bro, in at the west and send to man, so we don't know what might happen in the coming days. but what we do know is that there is dispense of supports. there's this stance of solely by our teach with i'm for the 2 products, you know, thousands of people saying that these are people we identify with them. we want them to carry on with what the socket. molly burkina, faso and guinea are among nice years new leadership supporters. all of them incidentally helping suspended from mika was the union has additionally introduced

sanctions against niger, including travel and severe economic restrictions. while nigeria has also reportedly disconnected the high voltage line that carries much needed electricity to measure to european states, they are evacuating foreign nationals from the country with from sir lifting hundreds of french in the use of it. since the 1st slide left on tuesday evening. and other european countries have followed suit. spain is preparing to evacuate more than 70 people. and it's elise also organizing repatriation measures several stuff i'm gonna tell you is how we were they arrived in room 5 military plane along with americans, another known european. so this will, the if i q ation efforts come just days after hundreds of people gathered in the west african countries capital to coal for leadership change. the french embassy was attacked by protesters who set fires in special windows. r, as in turn, has threatened, i hear with retaliation if any harm comes to it's of

a store. it's national interest including uranium extraction projects conducted by french fuel companies. we must, nigerians jump on the streets, the front must leave the nation about the former colonial power is the main cause, solve their suffering while i'm in the rise about the french sentiment in west, i forget president mcfall recently play the part of should show more quote profound humility in dealing with the consulate, however, that comment flies in the face of his own public mockery of the bacchanal, facile president, during a visit to the country back in 2017. sometimes you speak to me as a friends were still a colonial power, but i don't want to deal with the power supply in the universities in bertina paso . that's his job. that's the job of the board cannot be president. so on the other hand, i reassure you, oh, what's this? he's going away, stay there. maybe he's gone to fix the air conditioning. well,

i'm africa focused security ellis earlier told us he believes powers is so eager to maintain a dominant position measure. it may encourage neighboring countries to intervene militarily. this is a big loss to the french, the us, and i can cancel the, the rest of the lot in the country, you know, affect the eagles. so i didn't point the options back to the design print the citizens. there's no denying that it's no saying the french citizen hadn't been taught by anyone. no, joseph isn't, has been work their way to the trials to have some level one to see what they will do. what i say is, throws, relying on the other countries define is the reason that after

you is to view the 30000 people that they will, you know, they will need the ability to 30 and, but that will promote to west africa. countries find to themselves someone, it is a product to go and it will be very dangerous. but while a situation in niger makes headlines across the globe service, say that this isn't just another, in their words who and an african snaked. but in advance of global significance, with the nation becoming a new front and a modern cold war for a website, sales deeper into the get something else we want to bring you to a half a 1000000 women's lives are risk of the u. k. cuts it's foreign aid phones that's according to an internal assessment by the british government's own foreign and commonwealth development office. this is what was concluded before. and

commonwealth development offices on assessments. critical support to take on mon nutrition will not be deliver programs aimed at to reach and those photos behind including women, gills, and people with disabilities will be caught hundreds of 1000 small women. once again faced unsafe abortions, citizens will die. and pregnancy and childbirth. how familiar to women and children and young and will not receive health care. it may cause a loss and damage to health systems in the admin. if all the dullness unable to fund the move will hinder women receiving much needed access to a central health care with the report stating, thousands of women may die during pregnancy or childbirth due to the cuts. the lack of funds will also prevent another quick response to violence against women and girls in particularly sites to don in somalia and cause lasting damage to the health care system in yemen. again, according to the internal study, well, not a lot of our country, it comes as the you and food program suspended

a mug nutrition prevention program for him and this month over a lot of funds that could potentially have a devastating effect. and some 2400000. yeah, many civilians who are ready suffer from severe, malnourished the largest food and nutrition prizes in history. not today process this year. $345000000.00 people have continued to be acutely food and secure, while hundreds of millions of people are at risk of worsening hunger. why do you believe that the funding is drawing up this year? um, well i think you would have to ask uh the donors uh that um, but it's clear that a budget, steve, anytime budgets, both in europe and united states is not where they were and 2122. well, those same donors continue to pour their citizens money into ukraine, according to the data from the german global research team institute,

the us. so since $179000000000.00 and financial military a to keep the european union followed sports in concert, donating over $59000000000.00 with the u. k. also one of keeps big sponsors helping centrally funds military and 8 equivalent to $9000000000.00 so far. while a former south african national assembly member, we spoke to save the western countries, are trying to beat african states and eyes into submission by taking away much needed help. these moves by the u. k. is there one put nice ation of a in piss. when's the input of these interests? basically, what do you do with this? patricia throw such see this in needed? it is to send that message to the oxygen categories which are putting away from the whites. s we see in the countries like popular fi,

so any j and might be which open be a line with actually it shows that these are the god for gas. we can lice cited so by the western countries. and it also shows us that. yeah, because then how about the was a cream and cartoon, unaffected. the russian simulation had enough? i mean, so yes, shifting resources to, to you, i do set front page of the african people. definitely showing us all slide meta, carry our lives as africans done with it. so they believe that the most pop up the easiest to make government of the change and then did you meet all i gave the russian people and i only at a certain time is a we stories that russian federation is that item off $23.00

b on you as dollars worth of debt of the african people the seo of american multinational chip company, a m d test called china, unimportant trade partner while offering opportunities to develop an a. i said the conductor that would comply with us export products as we think about certainly the accelerate to market. all plan is to of course be fully compliant with us export controls. but we do believe there's an opportunity to develop products for all customers, such in china, but he's looking for all the official intelligence solutions. and we'll continue to work in that direction. we'll try to restrict the export of to materials that are essential for the production of semi conductor as well as some obtaining as the accusing washington of at disregarding free trade routes. now, beijing's restrictions came in response to us sanctions on the export of the semi conductor chipped to china. washington saves the laughter,

was intended to prevent the asian power from potentially using a tech for its military sector. a gosh, dana, for some time the united states has been of using export control measures. stepping up at suppression to contain china is semi conductor industry and deliberately dividing the global semi conductor market transfer. this is a disruption to global free trains or a disregard for international economic and trade rules and the trampling of the principles of fact competition changing into the gym comes as the white house adviser on like rich interior design. recently as the bind administration changes its policy from high dependence on ty, with these semi conductor reduction to its own industry development. the same time several us lawmakers are calling for more export restrictions on the artificial intelligence chips. and those innovations are widely used for different types of technologies from laptops,

to drill and engineering on developments that's across to jack ross, miss jackson, professor of economics up the st. mary's college of california check. always good to see you. thank you for your time today. so we're witnessing and an escalating, i think it's safe to say us china mike would ship more with the 2 parties restricting export to prevent the other countries technological development. what's the consequences of, of this, perhaps not just for those nations, but the globe is a whole. so your report, thereby, am d a here represents a significant crack. and if the side of the binary strategy, which is really about the a chip war going on with, with china, which is part of a technology, a bar, and a growing economic more over the next several years between the 2 uh, 2 countries. this whole world was launched in august the 2017,

when the us trade administration issued a report of targeting next generation technologies being developed by china. specifically a i, cyber security, 5 g, and so forth. that resulted the very quickly in the trade war by a trump, which is really about trying to block a chinese technology. and that trade war fails, obviously. and now we've got to buy ministration using a different strategy, more a direct strategy, you know, and buy goals and sanctions and so forth. but it's not, not working as well as they wanted they made in us and by an administration. and this chip back is a $52000000000.00, a flash one subsidy, 2 or countries. the companies rather of particularly in, in taiwan and asia and china, back to the u. s. production. but it hasn't having the full out effect of worrying

other tech companies in europe and in japan, back to the u. s. as well. we're just setting off a trade war, i mean, a tax winery or race to the bottom. so it's is getting complicated and there's a reverberations occurring that aren't always very positive positive for the us policy. and is that a m, the statement as polite as it appeared on the, on the i'd said is not a, not so subtle big washington saying, look, you're standing or we're trying to do business. and one of the most important sectors right now across the globe. and we're going to find a way to over set up because you, you leave us no other way. no other choice. well, i am day. is this tip of the iceberg. a lot of other companies, us companies doing business in china, see the chinese market for a i, chips is greater than the slush one subsidies it may get from from the u. s. and what they're really saying is we're,

we're not going to leave. and they're going to wait out a, by the administration to say, which is only a year and a half way. uh, to see, you know, whether or not the policy continues. it's a sudden significant statement and decision by very important chip company in the us that really reflects a ish shot across the bottom of the us policy that the us businesses aren't gonna necessarily go along with that. because there's more money to be made in china when there is a tax or subsidies, whether us, if it isn't. the 1st thing is that they do think that there's a connection between the white house top semi conductor advisor, leaving the office out on a change or a hope to change in the countries chip. production policy is that helpful. thank you as well. it's hard to determine whether he's doing for personal reasons or political raises probably

a little bit of both because it's going to get pretty messy from this point out. and he's probably a leaving, you know, while you still ahead of the game. but it's hard to hard to know exactly why is, is leaving, but it doesn't for by the very well for the future us policy here. so in this critical area, because a i a chip said that support a i r as you your statement and for earlier have significant military implications here. it's not only industries or the future here, but it's the military technology of the futures that the ai is going to be extremely important. and we'll be watching this crucial space and i'm sure we'll, we'll talk with you again soon on a check. rosalyn is professor of economics opposite mirrors college of california. many sites my pleasure. in all china, tesla,

i'm the us. so brand new weapons aid package to tie one saying not breaching the walton china principal. well, that's a red line to define question is the very core of china's interest and the 1st red line that must not be crossed in the china us relationship. we urge the us to ernest the abide by the one china principal and the 3 china us towing communities to stop in hudson military context with the time one region or a minute by any means or under any projects to step creates and factors. that's good heights, intention seeing the time on trade and stop colluding with and supporting disabilities. attempt to seek type on independence by force. no one to under estimate the determination result and capability of the chinese people in saved crowd funding or solving t and territorial integrity. well,

this comes after the us and it's $345000000.00 in the 384 time. one is the 1st time to buy the administration to send its own stock piles to the region . the white ice promises that package will include, or defense systems, as well as intelligence surveillance capabilities. while asian differs expert, victor go believes the us wants to use the situation over taiwan to initiate more friction. as well as seeing the united states is practicing the maximum form of hypocrisy and double standards. because on the warehouse in the us government, the recent months has represented again and again and again to the japanese government that it continues to follow the lines on the policy. it continues to view title one as an integral part of china. on the other hand, if we look at what the united states is doing in view actions, for example,

it is 3 and just the opposite for the united states that his face wants to use the situation to initiate a walk across the 2 sides of the file straight, which eventually may even escalate. it really breaks out. it's not initiated by china is initiated by washington, by the united states, by those decision makers for people promoting the tension to escalate the attention long to per bolt, a multitude, the 2 sides of the taiwan straits. us officials on the telephone have held talks for the 1st time since the militant serge, back to power enough chemist on 2 years ago following the american military pull out among the topics on the table during the meeting and cut. tar wasn't notorious narcotics trade, which the us failed to come by. really during its 20 year occupation of afghanistan, pop up on this, the cracking done on the opium business without straw on some unexpected criticism

from washington, as ortiz, rachel $116.00 stores. when us troops invaded an occupied afghanistan in 2001 opium production store to record levels with the country cementing itself as the world's largest producer of the narcotic substance. now that the taliban is back in power, when did strict anti drug laws, cultivation of the poppy place has fallen by nearly 90 percent. but not everyone sees that as a good day. for these reasons, the taliban should not be praised for or encourage to for system it's drug. bam. certainly no diplomatic recognition of the taliban regime should be awarded for it . so in this mainstream argument coming from the west is it taking away opium production removes a vital aspect about dennison's economy. as in 2020, the total value of opiates had a larger share and ask in trade than legal export. the drugs also contributed to rampant corruption and addiction, which is why they've always been outlaw under the tell about the piano stamp paper

. it's new to the u. s. military official struggle to address the epidemic in the country. i'm in the power vacuum, their presence created in 2001 washing to spend an estimated $9000000000.00 on anti drug programs. yup. reduction continued to spiral out of control if we're trying to stabilize the country, we don't want to turn the populace against us. they've been growing pop peace for a 1000 years here. and if we rip out the fields we are in publishing them. even the united states institute of peace, which is the federal organization to promote conflict resolution, has changed its to back in 2009. it published an article titled, how opium prophets the title event. then this year is article on the topic was titled, the taliban successful opium band is bad for adkins and the world. notably, it's not just the lack of opium production that is impacting afghanistan's economy . it's also the crushing thing ship that replaced billions of dollars in

a from the us. combined with divine and ministers has moved to freeze around $7000000000.00 in central bank reserves. when the taliban returned to power 2 years ago, the i. e. a reiterated that it was crucial for confidence building that blacklists and reward list to be removed and bank reserves beyond frozen so that afghans can establish and economy underlined on for an 8. when joe violent announced that he was freezing. the atkin beings reserves back in february 2022. he claimed she was doing it for the quote benefit of the people, but it has only served to contribute to one of the worst humanitarian disasters in the world. i find that the preservation of certain property of the afghanistan bank held in the united states by us financial institutions is of the utmost importance to addressing this national emergency. and the welfare of the people of, again, is done in the same way that the us government says one thing and then does another enough to understand the also appear to have double standards when it comes to

where they support opium production being allowed back in 2003, when the us was allowing the drug trade to run rampant in afghanistan. then senator joe biden was counting the importance of eliminating poppy cultivation in columbia for the united states at eliminating coca production in columbia is a longstanding goal of our national drug control strategy. opium poppy cultivation is a more recent development, but it's illumination is also in our strategy that has now been set in motion as us officials met with the taliban this week for the 1st time since they're takeover of afghanistan nearly 2 years ago. while the talks were start dividing in ministration has yet to say whether it plans to lift its sanctions on the country or to release the remaining $3500000000.00 worth of atkins, central bank reserves. it continues to hold hostage in an effort top and the economic crisis that is based on much more than just the lack of opium production

as afghanistan struggles to recover from 20 years of us occupation of the. okay, before we go, just an update on the story we have been following in washington, d. c. local police say they've called officer alert over a possible active shooter on capitol hill. all of the buildings in the senate vicinity have been searched with no suspects, find a no gunshots reported. the situation folded earlier on wednesday, after police responded to what they called a concerning 9. 1. 1 call around $200.00 officers were involved in searching the premises. after locking done, the senate, police have advised civilians to stay away from the area for now until they decide to reopen access. the reminder for up to the minute developments during this the 1st week silvo is to give our twitter page a follow. i promise you will not be void stories by the minute there catch you

again.
