of the, [000:00:00;00] the tensions defend over news year as the regional block echo was rumps off on me think focusing on a potential foreign military intervention with the residents hope dialogue will prevail. and let's say they're ready to defend themselves if necessary. we expect acura wants to come to a census because their current approach is an anti people approach since they simply want to intervene militarily in order to satisfy frank degenerates of send that back in the mid to leadership. we've been told shifts for many years. but now we're legal rated, and one go back. 55 people are killed in scores more wounded. i'm is violent flushes in the libyan capital,

said police talk to different amount phase. the death of libya's former leader and the markets of featuring the 2011 need to intervention for all the instability to the region that continues to this day. from feeling for stabilizing. here after less constitute to they still linked to the frames country offensive. numerous failures of american foreign policy facilitated by high ranking officials in the state department are exposed to send a new article by cue. let's or prize winning journalist seymour hersh the across the globe around the clock. this is our to welcome to the news our, my names. you know, the top officials from the echo was block of western african nations, met and gamma on thursday to discuss a potential foreign military intervention in this year. it follows the crew. there

are 3 weeks ago that saw the president deposed and taken into custody by his own power start. we spoke with regional journalist, tennessee, a base, a who expounds on what was discussed of today's gathering. yes, um the meetings are back or something. it looks like she's that has just finished by today and got ice expected for to hold for 2 days to start with. so it was expensive around in saying that, you know, it stands for demo tracy in the region and that sound but 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 in participants in off, you know, a batch plan or if in the meetings you know, across minutes you to see an hour before i got out, you know, where the meeting is taking place and this just goes to show this grow in sentiment across the continent. you know, many african countries, many residents here saying that, you know,

they do not want aircrafts to april fan. and a matter of fact, you just said that they would interchange in, in the shower, we on the street from some pattern use that this meeting could be, it meets. and where of course, lead us decide on how to, you know, move forward from here. well, the possibility of a military intervention in the next year, a crisis does not have unified barking across the continent. according to french media reports, the african unions refused to approve the plan. and even within the echo was block itself. there are signs of the vision, the san as in neighboring nigeria and misery during the president to use the full listing, while opposition lawmakers and gonna argue that any military lose could go against their own countries. in fact, we spoke to people in this year and say, your 1st time how they are feeling about this situation. the news that the law i said did i say that if we expect eco was to come to its senses? because 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. last, what i'm missing to i need to gun. there is a groundswell of support for the military government have come to liberate the people of new year. they have free does from 13 years of injustice embezzlement. so we firmly stand by them and will rise to fight any intervention forces, even before the military step saying, we're here and we are ready is, and then you have to be tended loose it. and i've got the african union understands the religious of news yet. so it wouldn't be part of any major intervention we have suffered for more than 2 years, but they didn't because so the germans, i submitted back in the mid to leadership. we've been told should for many years. but now we're a liberated and one go back. well, some of the majority and we are in the new jerry and capital in the army. and as

you know, here in the share, the news has been dominated by the military coups since july 26. a cruise that saw the birth of the national council for the safe guard of the homeland. you must be said that just after their installation, the cnsp has already set up their government. governor's and ministers have already started taking up their duties in the institutions of new share. productivities continue as normal in the capital. yesterday, the new prime minister made his very 1st form 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 the crew. he made it clear that this neighboring country chad is not in favor of a foreign military intervention in these year. all in all demonstrations of support continue 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 safe guard of the homeland. another thing to keep an eye out for is the last meeting which will be held on thursday and gonna in any case, many of these ariens are waiting to hear the conclusions of that eco last meeting. will allow that to that, naomi is now at the receiving end of sweeping sanctions from many of its former partners with the youth from some the u. s. cutting off all financial aid to the country. while echo was to impose restrictions to closing borders with nature of suspending financial ties and is your is not the 1st country that's felt the economic for solve echo was it previously targeted molly burkina faso guinea with a barrage of financial functions following military coups. busy in all the united nations house call for a she monetary and exemptions to those sanctions. it's noted, even before the president was austin,

there were several 1000000 people in dire need of food. and the u. n. is wanting, the current crisis could worse in the critical situation when we spoke to nigeria and attorney on global policy almost done here. but while it is that from the beginning, the west african regional block pursued the routes of intervention rather than diplomacy. a got it runs right from the beginning part of the strategy for the boost each of these to bring things that a value to both side. as you'll see the book of the united states, i need to, i'm not taking those hot stubs. so what's the do but it was right from the beginning. ready sided that. ready i would just say minutes we before decided negotiate which us about resulting so many of the delegations that is sent to new jersey. and it's not rejected at this time by maybe to, by deciding whether to have my just because at the moment, usually most funded or by itself needs to be supported by 3 or the applicant

countries. and you need to also understand that the board us the, the 6th one of these borders that julia and these are the people lead the religious religion of business in jersey, new jersey. so you already have a problem where the country, where the vehicle with jack comes from, might have a difficulty, riley around their support. they gave me here in the 1st place, but it's only the highest they can do it bordering state, for example. she has views. ready mentor, the west i or i guess these are the higher they gotta do is to find this, look on the list. yes, i'm groups to create that kind of a conflict situation or they need, you know, hope that it will make the gym in the general parking lot. but the problem with that is that if you look at alfred kite s of each of you see that in the last 15 to 20 years, we have the see the us is so just to add the total reflectivity. so it's a delicate environment. the minute you begin to 5 possible form,

do i know that it will make stuff regime on popular you are likely to create a scenario that would escalate to. ready crisis, it was or course anybody to join in the situation which may that's how the baby is or to ask because spring just like we had to add up, speed ok to another over a headline stories today, a class in the libyan capital between 2 of the countries most powerful functions has left at least $55.00 people that are breaks of violence have been a regular occurrence there since in nature backed uprising calls deep divisions in the nation back in 2011. several lloyd bloss marked in exchange of fire between this special, the turbans force, which acts really as the capitals police force. on the 400 and 44th brigade linked to libya's defense ministry. and came after the commander of the latter was arrested sheltering l. already shaky. peace between the 2 militias, some of called of islands. the worst tripoli has seen in a year. while it please,

foreign minister has bounded nato's 2011 operation and it will be a failure. and which brought instability to the region of large. 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 and 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 kills its leader in the market alfie. back in october, 2011. and what did emily get out of that? a flood of migrants. it's not like it off. he didn't warn europe telling freds 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 that with millions of migrants because would be a played 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 migraines and the central another trade in so far this year alone, libya has become a haven for human smuggling and slavery at a loss in pad for migration into europe and italy is really bearing the brunt of that, as we've seen recently with all these, this capsizing in the mediterranean and driving of migrants. not quite the freedom and democracy that nato had promised, as it's great to be in 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, believe it is finally free from being causing to break out from this rod. so it to western mountains into tripoli. i got sounds like he's talking about a whole other planet. we had to deal with gadhafi for libya to serve as a show point of sorts for african migration heading towards europe. he promised to intercept any migrants who ended up in the mediterranean and send them back to

libya before they could enter italy waters. but then italy ended up endorsing the western backed libyan rebels against the dolphin. and, well, all bets were off for the libyan leader. 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 billy 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 answer the western branding of those libyan rebels. as heroes. just like the syrian rebels he fought against president bashar al assad before this afternoon. joining up with other jihad is against the west, in some cases or the c i a trade and backs. so solomon lighten led the taliban during the us. cooper, oregon's associates in afghanistan in the eighty's that gave rise to outcry that 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 me to your bombing a wall which student the way of african migration to europe, and then the way of all kinds of terrorists. this was libya. you're breaking it, your radiance, and you will burn in hell for the thousands of migrants from africa and for support me all tied. it will be so i never lie and i do not lie now. so there is another aspect to this tragedy. the french financial crime, prosecutors, here in paris. i have 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 to her motives 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 be due on the 3rd if i need to go back to the mission also to kind of show you what are the by the go button of the bloods libby. 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 libya back then. and it continues to just go along to get along with pretty much everything that us lab nato dies to the continued detriment of its very own interest. and certainly those of its citizens from nature to ukraine, the latest part of the missteps of american foreign policy, helping exposed in a new article by pilots are prize winning journalist seymour hersh. my colleague, shambles, i don't know, quarter talk through the piece earlier. it's a fascinating article that course seymour hersh, this veteran and master journalist relief from vietnam. well, put 2 more recently nord stream, where he put some meat on the bones of allegations 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 teamworks. and he's

doing it again with this article entitled the as the summer of hawks on, in any sort of outlines and 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. of 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 put 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 that. then we can have a look at that right now. jetta was sullivan's a bit so shall said. just one more. but who's counting for the nations 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 have dump and the infuse e as in, in the state department. as for trouble making, you feel like in the course the content of africa, it saves us state department as they do then i've got to stand still sign in their shoes, and they're in ukraine at destroying country, essentially with 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, neo con policy and victoria newland, the one of the architects of the the might on to it back in 2014. she's been in the share as well, with one of the hirsch's source, it says that things didn't quite go to plan for victoria noon. and then she went there to try and safe guard supplies into your from that very resource which country is 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 start with, you probably will be there till the very end. don't worry about it. it seems that this, this messaging is concealing a kind of chaotic, a 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 head into the winter as 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 ukraine. anthony blinking our tone to his friends. he's 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 to refuse to accept that things aren't going as well as planned in ukraine. and we can have a look at that. also here, the secretary of state tony blinking, where was he? i asked the question of the official who said the blinking as figured 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 dallas, and 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 a lot of this has been, you know, essentially proven now. and this is coming from significantly high level sources

within the us administration as well. the sweden has raised its terrorism threat level coming as a thirty's and recent loans. a load copies of the crown to be burn publicly. those incidents which the courts ruled were protected under freedom of expression ignited outrage among muslim communities there. um the need around the world, the head of sweden's national security service said the tourism risk was specifically because of islamist activities. without mentioning that chrome distribution of 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 and globally, that means the decision to raise the terror alert level is not the result of a specific event. wiley, security service chief stop short of naming any specific incidents. the head of the national center for turf threat assessments and the crown findings probably

contributed to the rising danger level. for the senior figure in the swedish government appeared to shrub off any potential link saying the public should this regard. the speculation names can find you, since i use to describe 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 . in recent months, several copies of his loans, holy book were burned or otherwise destroyed in public demonstrations, permitted by the authorities in sweden. nearby denmark, the incidents ignited major protests in some of them. the muslim countries, including syria, packet spelling, as well along re, mom, also storm. the swedish embassy in a rock that a neighboring a rum said the,

the scandal leaving authorities were fueling room that just searches both at the sweden and denmark of titans, their border controls, and the rising fingers, if possible, retaliation we heard from her listening writer mohammed of a bodily who lives in sweden, he said he's the abuse of freedom of speech is what appears in his view to be the cornish. 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 a political level versus public. so one moment as requested to burn a cron that initially been refused by swedish authorities. their refusal was it 1st justified the citing that 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 garage. but as we know for a 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 within police would take a stronger stance against the supreme course refusal to reject so long as requests to burn a cron or give a statement saying why they don't think that such offence are going to cause any security express. i also would have liked this, which 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. okay, and other story to bring you today, the presidential office in nigeria, africa's largest economy. how's the sure the current petrol prices will remain on change for the foreseeable future. that statement came in response to the warnings from oil market unless we predicted yet another price increase. in fact,

it would be the 3rd since the president took office just around 3 months ago. those forecast cited the foreign exchange prices as the main clause. for years the west african nation has been juggling multiple currency conversion rates that one is dictated by the country central bank. while another far higher, unofficial rate is driven by the price of imported. i think law commodities. restaurants live now to nigeria as capital to calvin. among you and calvin is economic alyssa, and ceo of the food and beverages for jury hills. thanks for your time today. what do you think by the assurance is by the presidential office that the federal price is going to remain on change now going forward, but that's despite of course, exports winning, but the opposite will occur. right, thank you so much for have a good evening to you. as you see the,

the patrol price is going off. the market is a normal thing, but pro price up to it. uh, cheap compared so in international, private, spectral price going for about $0.78. but anytime in major countries in africa you folks are allow for guys in by way. utah patrol is a dollar 50 cents um by the time. uh well you, you have to understand dodd's dig to do it, like you said is the biggest factor. and you don't mean federal prices. now, 2 months ago with the central bank of nigeria, historically was the last 3 decades decided that it was going to try to unify the extra ingrid. and to be sure that there's only one action or it's a manager, there is no more official or given by the central bank. i'm officials booked for it, which is a river dog funded and supposedly to collapse the official region to the bar, a little market for it to make one spot for it. but you've seen the over the last 3 weeks,

there's been like on increasing the man block market premium. different agenda sat by you on the spot rates. i'm just currently somewhere between 1819 percent of the government. it's under by the government. ok. my one that's the government is planning to make a caution fusion into the economy that is going to reduce the duct market premium. but you see the problem we have with the exchange rate that the company is the price of petroleum major. i'm what you did send out a few days ago last week. central bank published just what he did, reports for spending like 70. yes. that shows that nature as far as that is actually 50 percent. what you've got said about 4 weeks ago, weeks ago, the central bank said major as far as that, as well as the 3rd point, $6000000000.00. ways, actual fact the audit report shows, and now you're as far as, as a team $1000000000.00, the central bank of measure is going to be fixed on all of that money to give you

more patches and roll my socks 7 and a half $1000000000.00. and it's also us to fix boards for everything. fine. if you didn't uncomfortable roomies policies from the i'm not sure. let us upgrade about $6800000000.00 is you have to provide security for yeah. can i, can i just to seek some, some clarity on that if you code to money? well, because just to simplify their being too significant. petra price, like since the president took office just a few months ago. does that suggest to you that it's not the top of a priority list of the presidential administration, or is it more to do with as you're leading? i a lot of other factors a play. how well do you rate the government coping with this issue, right. not well, to be honest, the 2, this government as compared to the immediate past government that was a complete disaster. and these are looking at some of the kids here every day, very,

very affordable and bucks to wish i had the dental somewhere around the $170000000000.00 like major has never having it as far as history of the what you see would increase the price of petrol is because in 2021, the government of 9 year a possible, they quote, the petroleum industry. and the section is to $51.00. it's safe to go to my grid from government control prizes, way, provide a subsidy on interchange with their budget. it was due to provide anywhere around $12000000000.00, a subsidy petroleum major, because it is broken, explained so much money. i'm trying to become from the government of that for removing this subsidies on a line to market forces to determine the price of the tree. so that's what you've seen in nigeria, and that's why the appraisal patrol has gone from somewhere between $2.00 and fees on that defense to somewhere around 70 it sites. yeah, garbage is not 0. okay, how does that affecting the people save yourself?

you're a business owner, you, you employed people, is this, i would imagine the margin for a particularly small and medium sized businesses could be way for a scene in a particularly hard economic done turn right now, not just in nigeria, but, but across the world. so how does that affect people when, when we see issues like this, that play as well as the fact that these efficient as bruno in fact i, i don't believe the official official numbers up to the manager. i'm groups. that is, the good news is um, headline and specialized 24 points. are it besides putting fish on somewhere around 26.9 percent of i'm not mistaken. i believe the official numbers are much higher. i think for the vision is anywhere on 30 percent, every 3 bites and the people, because disposable income has really reduced the shelf for what they spend or to what the guess is gone from. so somewhere around 61 percent as compared to or the developed countries where the share of what you spend the filter disposable income

is only 600 percent. so basically we bought and is equal not seeing the entire economy because you have a situation, for example, where us inflation goes up because of the rising energy prices of surprises. and on the central bank, what is your point is coming to you. so you get that to revise. the money to point is the rate all you see and the commercial endeavor to go up the non performing low ratio measure on box. go on. yeah. about form a drum funds that i've already indicated in traveling good thing. but to get rid of that, they should not come with all the shop is balance sheets. unfortunately we have to end it there. but very interesting indeed to go. so in depth and to that. thank you very much, calvin. i'm on u l. c o. at the nigerian food and beverages for dirty hills enjoyed talking to you . thank you so much. now i finally just time to fit this. an indonesian pride least celebrated on thursday to mark 78 years since they're so
