1:02 pm
the post and taken into custody by his own power, his guard. we spoke with regional journalists, timothy a base, who expands on what was discussed of today's meeting. yes, um the meetings are back or some military cheese that has just finished part today and can i put you on hold for 2 days to start with? so it was expensive. it's proud in saying that, you know, it stands for demo bracy in the region and that sounds like nothing really. it's very clear about them when or how a possible military intervention or innovation of nature would take place just yet . but that we know that, um, you know, local media reports have suggested that there's a role we could use it the same off, you know, a glass platform in the meetings you know, banquets maybe to, to be an outside governor where the meeting is taking place. and this just goes to show the grow in sentiment across the continent. you know, many african countries,
1:03 pm
many residents here saying that, you know, they do not want aircraft to interim fan. and the matter of fact, you just said that they would interchange in, in the shower, we on the street from some paddlers that this meeting could be it meeting where of course, leaders decide on how to, you know, move forward from here. still, the possibility of a military intervention in the next year, a crisis does not tub unified backing across the continent. according to french media reports, the african union has refused to approve the plan. and even within the eco was block itself. there are science of sufficient descendants in neighboring nigeria is urging the present moment. while i'll position lawmakers in gonna argue that in the military lives that go against their own country's interests. we spoke to people in this year to hear 1st on how they are feeling about the situation and is up in the i. so till i say that we expect actor wants to come through it sensors because
1:04 pm
their current approach is an antique people approach. since they simply want to intervene militarily in order to satisfy france, military intervention is never a solution. we hope that echo was, will reject the military option and opt for dialogue because only dialogue can bring an end to this crisis. left for the missing sadly take gun. there was a groundswell of support for the military. government have come to liberate the people of new year. they have free dies from 13 years of injustice embezzlement. so we firmly stand by them and will rise to fight any intervention forces even before the mailed her steps. and we're here and we are ready. and you haven't done anything in our company. the african union understands the religious of news yet. so it wouldn't be part of any major intervention that i may have suffered for more than 2 years, but they didn't speak out. so the germans, i submitted back in the major leadership. we've been told shirts for many years, but now we're liberated and won't go back. and it was something like a present in new jersey. and we are in the new jerry and capital in the army. and
1:05 pm
as you know, here in these year, the newest has been dominated by the military crews since july 26th, a crew that saw the birth of the national council for the safe guard of the homeland. it must be said that just after their installation, the cnsp has already set up their government. governors and ministers have already started taking up their duties in the institutions of new year. productivities continue as normal in the capital. yesterday the new prime minister made his very 1st formed visit to the neighboring country chad. he met with charles president who has played a very important role since the beginning of this crisis. and these year having travelled to each year as part of a mediation group. here he met with the deposed president and the leader of good who he made it clear that this neighboring country chad is not as favorable for military intervention in the share. all in all demonstrations of support continue
1:06 pm
with the new jersey and capital me on may and markets rallies and citizen visuals. people have come out to support the national council for the say sort of a homeland. another thing to keep an eye out for him to watch the meeting, which will be held on thursday. i'm gonna, in any case, many of these areas are waiting to hear the conclusion stuff that eco was meeting with just to point to at the i'm a is know at the receiving end of sweeping sanctions from many of its former partners with the, from some of the us cutting off all financial aid to the country while eco was imposed restrictions as well as the closing borders within this year. um suspending financial ties this year is not the 1st country that's felt the economic force. busy echo was it previously targeted molly latino fast? so i'm guinea with a barrage of financial sanctions following military cruise there to mean, well the united nations has called for humanitarian exemptions to those sanctions.
1:07 pm
it's noted, even before the president, who, as i said, there were several 1000000 people in dire need of food. the un, there's warning of the current crisis code worse than that critical situation. we spoke to lawyer international, political as daniel but while i, who said that from the beginning echo was pursued the routes of intervention rather than diplomacy. a lot of the drums right from the beginning of the bottle. this strategy for negotiation is to bring things that top of value to both side. you'll see people in the united states natal, i'm not taking those hot stones. so what's the do but it was right from the beginning. ready side that they went to say ministry before they started negotiating, which us about resulted in so many of the delegations that they sent to new jersey . and it's not rejected in this time by ministry, by deciding,
1:08 pm
but it has not just because at the moment usually most find it all by itself. the generally supported by 3 or the applicant countries. as you need to also understand that the board us, the, the about 6 board has these borderline julia and these are the people lead the relatives, religion of business in jersey, new jersey. so you already have a problem where the country where the vehicle was, jack comes from it that might have a difficulty, riley around their support. they gave me here in the 1st place, believed to at least the highest. they kind of do it, but i'm still for example, she has views. ready mentor, the width of a while, i guess these are the higher they gotta do is the following, this look on the list. yes. on a roof. to create that kind of a conflict situation or the lead you into hope that it will make the gym in the general parking lot. but the problem with that is that people look at after a guy who can ask somebody to use the best in the last 15 to 20 years, be happy. see the us is so just to add that service activities. so it's
1:09 pm
a delicate environment. the minute you begin to 5 possible form that it will make stuff regime on popular, you are likely to create a scenario that would escalate to the crisis. ready course anybody can in that situation, which may that's off. yeah. maybe result in africa spring just like we have the out up spring. ok, staying on the continent, but moving north all. eric flushed in the libyan capital between 2 of the countries, most powerful factions has left at least 55 people dead. breaks of violence have been a regular occurrence. there are since the nature of backed uprising caused divisions in the nation back in 2011. several large loss marked on exchange of fire between the specials that turn sports which access the capitals police force. the 400 and 44th brigade linked to libya's defense ministry and came off to the commander of the law for was arrested sheltering and already shaky peace between the 2 militias
1:10 pm
. some have called the violence. the worst tripoli has seen them a year long. at least foreign minister house from the nato is 2011 operation in libya, failure, and one which brought the instability to the region of large leap. at least i believe that it was a very serious mistake to let conducted be killed. it might not have been the champion of democracy, but as long as he was eliminated, political instability arrived in libya and africa. well, libby, a former italian colony is still a totally mess right now. suffering from the result of a french and british lead invasion that killed its leader. no marg adolphe, back in october, 2011. and what did we get out of that? a flood of migrants. it's not like it off. he didn't warn europe telling french tv ahead of the nato bombing into the top of his country. that if he went down, then italy and france specifically would be flooded with millions of migrants because would be a played
1:11 pm
a role in securing and stabilize the africa. and the mediterranean, and that's exactly what ended up happening. the flow of migration into europe is still a big problem with the death of hundreds of my friends and the central mediterranean . so far this year alone, libya has become a haven for human smuggling and slavery. and the launching pad for migration into europe and italy is really very new brenda, that as we've seen recently with all these, this capsizing in the mediterranean and drowning of migrants. not quite the freedom and democracy that nato had promised. as it's great to be libya free libya at midnight. tonight, a successful chapter in nato history will come to an end. you have already started writing a new chapter in libya's history. we acted to protect you together, we succeeded, leave. it is finally free from being causing to break out from ms rata to western mountains. and to aaa. i got sounds like he's talking about a whole other planet. we had to deal with gadhafi for olivia to serve as a sharp point of sorts for african migration heading towards europe. he promised to
1:12 pm
intercept any migrants who ended up in the mediterranean and send them back to libya before they could enter italian waters. but then it really ended up endorsing the western backed libyan rebels against biase and well, all bets were off for the libyan leader. he was like, okay, fine moran, you have you handle it for some reason. italy was just shocked that could off, he was no longer willing to play ball and i pulled the migrant intersection deal after dooley started cheering for regime change against him, putting desperate people on a boat and pushing them off to sea, sending them to die, and demanded to randy him is something very close to being another crime against humanity for which the regime will have to dance the western branding of those libyan rebels as heroes. just like the syrian rebels. he fought against president bashar al assad before detective in joining up with other jihad is against the west
1:13 pm
. in some cases or the c i. a trade and backs of solomon lighten led the taliban during the us cover oregon to the soviets in afghanistan in the eighty's that gave rise to al qaeda. we all know what happened with them. 911. that's all i need to say. or more recently like the training as our neo nazis western training and back to story. well, it's to be continued all western back and all western tools of regime change, who then became, or risk becoming still taking time bonds that could blow back at any time against western interest. no saw that coming ages ago. gadhafi. now listen, you people of nato. you are bombing a wall, which student the way of african migration to europe, and then the way of all kinds of terrorists that this was libya. you're breaking it, your radiance, and you will burn in hell for the thousands of migrants from africa and for supporting all tied. it will be so i never lie and i do not lie now. so there's
1:14 pm
another aspect to this tragedy. the french financial crime prosecutors, here in paris. i've told the french press back in may, that they will ask a judge to try former french president, regardless of prison, for passive corruption, criminal association, the legal financing of electronic campaigns and concealment of embezzled public fines in libya. and lydia, so alt, your boat is for, i was think adolphe would certainly help to explain what african leaders had said way back when about western refusal to even less than take charge of this. libyan conflicts on their own confident in the view or in light of a peaceful resolution. they'll likely be to meet you on the bike. the mission.
1:15 pm
also to kind of show you what are the by the go button or the blood that's needed. so what's the takeaway here? turns out that italy did not stand up against its western allies to protect its very own interest in livia. back then, and it continues to just go along to get along with pretty much everything that us lead nato dies to the continued detriment of its very own interest, and certainly those of its citizens from new year to ukraine, the latest part of the missteps of american foreign policy, how be to expose in a new article by pulitzer prize winning journalist seymour hers. my colleague, she bows dolo porter talked through the piece earlier. it's a fascinating article that course seymour hersh, this veteran and master journalist relief from vietnam. open to a more recently north stream where he put some meat on the bones of allegations
1:16 pm
that it was america that was behind us. he exposed a deep seated uh, you know, and detailed us involved with the north stream according to see march. and he's doing it again with this article entitled to as the summer of hawks on, in any sort of outlines in shed some light if you like, on the chaos in, in the us state department right now around the political mass machinations as a whole ukrainian project essentially fails that the counter offensive has been a military failure. and the sort of result of that will be ukraine's backers money that nobody really wants to continue to pour this cash in here. so it's a very detailed report. but in detail, he also talks about this piece process or piece talks or a piece meeting in jet and saudi arabia, which ed jake sullivan from the us state department who was the architect of and his source. that's a very interesting light to shine on. the then we can have
1:17 pm
a look at that right now. jetta was sullivan's baby, the official said just one more. but who's counting for the nation? showed up all but 6, looking for free food after the desk to shut down. fascinating stuff. and it is believed that this, that he has significantly high sources in potentially to see a and in the state department itself. but it doesn't say to a dump and the into z as in, in the state department at, for trouble making if you'd like. and of course, the content of africa, it seems us state department, as they do that. i've gotta stand still side of their shoes, and they're in ukraine at destroying country, essentially what their proxy war against russia. it seems that they're still energetically in africa, and it turns out that the high priestess of us neil neil con policy as a tory, a new lens. the one of the architects of the the might on to it back in 2014. she's been in the share as well. but one of the hirsch's source,
1:18 pm
it says that things didn't quite go to plan for victoria knew linda. she went there to try and safe guard supplies into your from that very resorts to which country i'm going to look at that as well. the intelligence official put her remarks to the times in american military lingo. victoria set out to save the new share uranium owners from the barbaric russians and got a huge single finger salute. yeah, so as you can see, this a front of, you know, we stop with you probably will be there till the very end. don't worry about it. it seems to be this messaging is concealing kind of chaotic. yeah. outcome building process in the us as they see that this last gasp of some of the even the western press is missing. this counter offensive. it, it, it never really took off. i'd certainly failed on these very precious resources that are being pumped into ukraine as we had into the winter as the election cycles come up. and you're finding the us, as it seems that even the most familiar face that you'd associate the us project in
1:19 pm
ukraine, anthony, blinking our tony to his friends, seems told he has sort of dropped off the radar a little bit on one of hers. she has a sources again, suggest that maybe tony and know something that some people in the white house refused to accept that things aren't going as well as clad in ukraine. and we can have a look at that. also here, the secretary of state tony blinking, where was he asked the question of the official who said the blinking has figure it out that the united states that is our ally. ukraine will not win the war against russia. the word was getting to him through the agency c, i a, the ukrainian offense was not going to work. it was a show by the landscape. and there were some in the administration who believed his what menu independent the ascend, ukraine, watchers and geo political watchers have said from the start that this was probably due to failure. the ukraine was a trojan horse, if you like to attack russia, and this has nothing to do with the welfare of ukrainians. it seems that
1:20 pm
a lot of this has been, you know, essentially proven now. but this is coming from significantly high level sources within the us administration as well. sweden has raised its terrorism threat level after authorities in recent, and i'm so load copies of the car room to be burn publicly. those incidents which the courts rule were protected under freedom of expression ignited andre jamal, muslim communities, both there on the run, the world, the head of sweden's national security service at the terrorism risk was specifically because of islamist activities without mentioning the crum desecration . or the, during the years there has been a progressive change in the threat situation against sweden, or we have gone from being considered a legitimate to prioritize target for violent is limited in globally. that means
1:21 pm
the decision to raise the terror alert level is not the result of a specific event. yet while the security service chief stop short of naming any specific incidents, the head of the national center for terrorist threat assessments that the crumb burnings probably contributed to the rising danger level. but so we've been civil defense minister appear to shrug off any potential link saying the public should disregard that speculation. nothing's confined here since right. there is a risk that the current, this information campaigns against sweden could jeopardize the situation of swedish citizens and companies abroad. and pose a threat to national security. in light of this, the government wishes to clarify that we all have a responsibility to not spread information and messages that are clearly incorrect, or several copies of as well as holy book, were burned or otherwise destroyed in public demonstrations, permitted folly authorities in sweden and also denmark, the incidents ignited major protests in some predominantly muslim countries,
1:22 pm
including syria, unpack us them. and i can remote even stormed into the swedish embassy and iraq. they bring around, said the scandinavian authorities were fueling religious tensions. both sweden and denmark have tightened their border controls and the rising fears of possible retaliation. lay palestinian writer who lives in sweden mohammed, the bodily se stuff. abuse of freedom of speech is what appears in his view to be the court issue. a hello, who is this? the, i believe the real problem is the taken advantage of freedom of speech laws as legislation, doesn't currently classify the burning of secret holland books as a crime. when addressing the issue, one must look bartlet, freedom of expression, laws and take a portion from freedom of speech. though in sweden, we have a separation between what's acceptable and the political level versus public. so one moment because requested to burn a cron that initially been refused by swedish authorities. their refusal was at 1st justified,
1:23 pm
citing the act would bring about tragic consequences. political unrest affect national security as it did in denmark that contributed to sweden's refusal, and was followed with the suite of prime minister saying that the nation is considering amending the law and criminalizing the burning of holy books, especially the koran. but as we know for sitting since we didn't take a long time, and the subject of amending it may take more than a year, i just wish this wouldn't police would take a stronger stance against the supreme course. the refusal to reject so long as requests to burn a cron or give a statement saying why they don't think that such a fence are going to cause any security express. i also would have liked this british police to put more effort into explaining what the concerns were when they were rejected 1st time. and if the future event will affect the security threat level in the country. africa as quotes on top potentially in global high tech industries. that's the message from a key report by the us department on trade um development, the paper stage stuff,
1:24 pm
the african continental free trade area, offers rate opportunities to countries on the constant, on the lowest for a key role in the global supply chain. more over i forget, has a unique advantage on the green energy market. so it's a vital source of coal, both on the field essential for both trades. the region also both a rapidly growing tech ecosystem. we heard from nigeria and politician, i do new garbage who believes the current international system does not allow, i forget to exert its full potential. what do you got? all those kind of do the oil and gas like my going through united. you know how one of the largest of it got deposited. you also want to look at all those do to see the up to go. it's a potential for a book from the international system to look at this book, which i'm sure, but i really just kind of report that it's coming from us is trying to explore the
1:25 pm
potentials so that we can be able to explode just what is on for the benefit of africa, so the ones you know, defense them for the mobile. so the come stay with, you know, to mean disease will start visual, hold up the, do you know, the supposed to be because we, what are the distribution for? we need the global, we did, you don't want to have time. the terms are, you know, it is like where we are, but the doctor does all sort of return the supply supplies the distribution when i try to go out the door and put me in the type of thing they use, we crush the bottle. but what is that is, what are the, what i was on the show, but it's what is the, is going to show up to go to the, you know, the,
1:26 pm
just in for the machine it is, are the one of those we need to be able to follow up with something else to tell you if i today i'm buying that unites the bricks, grouping of rapidly growing economies was issued a new bond in south africa, one of the member states that's become one of the highest valued on the domestic market. let's go through this because the new development buying place, the obligation in 3 and 5 year trunk cheese in south africa's around current cigna . the issue is part of a major effort to boost the national economy. specifically, by increasing trade turnover, the bank has been strengthening its presence among emerging markets around the world and encourages the use of local currencies to the brakes. that good thing has also been discussing a unified currency across the block as it moves away from traditional dollar. the nominated that trade us, the reserve currency, essentially brooks,
1:27 pm
which includes the economic powerhouses of china. russian india has emerged as a country buttons to western who gemini, as it promotes a more multi lateral world trade and national currencies is endorsed by brakes. members, especially in view of the heavy functions that the u. s. and other western powers of impose an arrival economies around the world. so many reasons. one of you said there's a, that's a good financial marketing is what liquids needs. and it's a very easy to use your bonds in south africa. in fact, there's a significant capital all good. he's probably use some of the mostly put capital markets self only merging countries in the world. so it's on that point of view, it's easy to do that. you can use any step is capital market a 2nd. the of course it's much bigger, a good, but also do you see both in your own currency as a b because you don't run the exchange rate risk of for example, you could use your name dollars, you'd be issue dollars and you've got a 2 week and then you're running an exchange rate risk as well, and i think 50, yeah, i think of the biggest countries should the modem, i might choose what they are going to see more know,
1:28 pm
especially when it comes to say, for example, bones and everything comes to trade as well, so i think there could it be that there could be a number of reasons and the reason is all make sense to me because that's a good economies all the growing to. so that's a good economies, by far, the smallest of all the big countries. in fact, if you look at their relative size of the various economies, one can argue that so that because you've been being bought it, but it's a do start off with this, i'd have to get economy this year. it's probably not going to grow, grow very, very slowly. and if you're going to be that to the indians or even through the chinese and the chinese economies slowing down being fed. but still they are right much, much for us in the south african economy. and of course, the much, much bigger economy. so now i'm gonna try to, so that's a good economy. we are simply not putting a weight and the vision in terms of gravity. so the, not the finally ethiopians have received much needed medical treatment, but not enough, as violence continues in the northern hard region. that's according to the country's health representative in florida. now it says idle supplies and oxygen in
1:29 pm
the still a few days of the flies and many patients and intensive care died because we could not do any major surgery. it has been difficult for a team to move or communicate in the region a to be able to coordinate with the most affected health facilities to overcome some immediate shortages. ethiopia is currently facing a dire humanitarian situation due to a variety of factors including on conflict, climate related events busy some the impact of cobit 19. those challenges have resulted in a significant number of citizens fleeing the country seeking asylum abroad. specific regions such as the grey afar and apologize. i've been particularly affected with approximately 9000000 people in severe need of food assistance. according to health officials, earlier this week, 26 civilians were killed in
1:30 pm
a drone at like some, at 200 kilometers north of the capitol, outside of a local esick militia. the federal army which previously for the long side of each other, i've not been exchanging fire for 4 months as violence and the country continues to escalate. a state of emergency has been declared by you t o p as council of ministers. the layman's illegal militancy in b i'm, however, a national regional government is causing humanitarian and material damage. for instance, the killing and suffering of innocence. citizens in general, it has caused a threat to the safety of presidents on the regions related peace and security issues. shake the constitutional order presented danger to the silver and t of the country and public, the sun safety. therefore, just of the situation, declare in a state of emergency has become necessary. it's a good i'm looking to solve this issue justly. the solution is not to use mitre
