4:08 am
almost 2 weeks. and this is a huge economic law. so you know a mountain sir, no less than 900000000. myra. so this is just the ongoing business and is the same weight loss is being and kid daily and partially because rocks in a way, hunger and square se might be the reality over on these urea ends. annual leave on this as well. the actor was buddy is looking to achieve, you know, to avoid using force as well. the push by echo was to resolve the crisis, has the backing of america and needs as form of colonial power of frosts. washington himself has been actively involved in the situation. all of a sudden, a pointing a brand new ambassador to new jed this week. and the recently dispatching the my don midwife deputy secretary of state victoria neutral into the country for as we understand you have very difficult towards with the leaders that want to and i, you know, jerry and john list of research we spoke to any of those things that washington,
4:09 am
at the end of the day, could have all terry of motives. here's what this journalist from needs. yeah, that's a tennis. i mean this, this house has become a g, a political issue for the west, especially since countries in the region, not diversifying the international partnerships now completely leaving these are in a french in fluids. it is also noted that his power is just getting kicks out with other powers will certainly fill in the void and us just seen rush and trying and making such attempts. so the west might lose its positions in the region. and in this context, the us is trying to make friends revise its regional strategy, except the crew is afraid to complete and move towards a compromise with the new military authorities, which would include organizing new elections within a reasonable time frame. what essentially compromised doesn't happen. these will have no choice, but to come on to russia's security umbrella, just like molly did before. because security threats the country is currently facing our immense uranium also remains an important issue for france and other powers such as the us. because the energy crisis has expired,
4:10 am
they've done varieties, they need additional resources to beef up energy resilience and withstand ruptures . and the global energy supply. yeah, curious i go, you can read more about on our website, is that the situation in egypt means that the washington is having to have tickets . words casserly officially brightening the events. that's cool. would mean under american law, who would have to cut off old military and financial ties, but the country can read more about the, a very tricky diplomatic dialogue for the white house. it's on our website right now. the in the program, a seemingly on stumble force, which keeps on growing just ahead of next week's breaks summit and solve africa, morocco, which is the latest country to submit a bid to join the economic and strategic alliance. the north african nation, joyce saudi arabia intern easier and such a host of others requesting to join the group. meanwhile, brakes which is kind of at the brazil, russia, india, china, until the africa. they are inviting 60 world leaders to the summit,
4:11 am
starting on tuesday and key issues likely to dominate the to ok. so the blocks gross and trade in low coal cochran c. so in other words, they are cutting that box on the dollars of cards. and we spoke with economic and policy analysts, the, i mean i, you breaks down why the bricks finally continues to flourish. so morocco is not the, is looking to new economic partners who are actually, again, uh, health and morocco, uh for its uh, economic future. after the cold with the outbreak, many western countries actually changed their comic objectives by actually bringing back uh and trying to bring back the industries back to their country. so many of these countries who have a historical partnership with the, with us and the other listing countries are looking into joining in the birth. and
4:12 am
this is basically for economic reasons and to protect their, their, their feet each are expanding. because as we can see, the western world and especially us is not given a voice to, to, to these are through many of these 3rd world countries in morocco use of dollars. he's not to. so right now we have a, we're historical partners. they're using the dollars, but if we move to other partners, morocco is always open to do using the other courtesies breaks. we'd be focusing more on using local care season, the next and then the next meeting during the meeting in south africa. also they're going to be looking for the creation of us payment system other than the international. uh, okay. the current swift system. i think it's michael jones, this bricks, and there will be a member, and i think we would have
4:13 am
a great political impact. morocco's bricks. membership bid raises the question of the western sa har. joining of the economic lines once a spanish colony is now a disputed territory in the market of region bordering algeria and morocco. the last of considers an integral part of his territory, whereas algeria supposed to suckle out a independence movement, we spoke to a guest who believes morocco joining breaks must have no effect on western so high was right. the self determination. nissan didn't notice. i mean, undoubtedly a new world order is being shaped before our very eyes, brazil, russia, india, china, and south africa, part countries with strong economies and huge populations. the old world order which followed the interest of western countries is no longer valid. and as it cannot respond to newly emerging global problems, challenges and crises. brooks is the hope for the creation of a more just world order countries, such as algeria saudi arabia,
4:14 am
venezuela. any ron have already shown their interest in joining brooks that would contribute to their strength and independence. however, morocco's southern bid to join bricks appear strange because morocco was known as an ally of the us, france and israel rock who is also violated international law by occupying western sahara. the issue with western so her pertains to d, colonization morocco. joining bricks must not affect western so hard as the right of self determination should still be preserved. for that situation, we would rely on international law. the dozens of christians and the representatives of various civil society organizations and practiced on have come off in protest against muslims who have been accused of pocketing the christian community of the eastern part of the country. a on job the we are ashamed are had spoke down to people from different sides of face and injustice in violence. we

4:19 am
also cause market approaches to the climate change issues. which i think uh we, we, oh so we are concerned about the conflict my guess to the foundation, to be the united way that is on dishes under. so who seemed to have a be got all of in in, in this i'm, if you have this saw me, it's present to the claims is a, is enough to come sunday itself the solutions and there is a solution and outcomes of his stomach. and from that that's kind of voice the coming of us of practicing by november. so how authentic sees this, how many people have organizations like making ski and other private entities? one of the comfortable whose agenda is unclear are having a big about the same. the agenda outcomes of the assignments. the suspended head of a central bank in nigeria is set to face
