3:02 pm
with feminist assisting into the early hours of the morning. the make people in america say outdoors, avoid the danger of collapsing buildings. the epi sent those who are just sitting near the town of out who's with some residents before did the remain track of the debris. and many locals are displaced. feeling a 2nd wave of from is we heard from survivors or just by the terrifying experience for who was in i was visiting my neighbors on the 3rd floor when suddenly we saw things forming from above. we were unable to sit or stand and ran out of the house along with many other residents. the earthquake was a very strong, it's going to go. he was surprised by an intense vibration. iverson and it has was moving. we did, and. a what happens when my mother told me it was enough? great. i said it is not possible. then we left the house very quickly. now was in

3:04 pm
but supply services cement, folding on top of me. and they'll forget. i live in the city of nights on a friday evening america. she's really what everybody's on the streets in this part of the summer buying food and generally enjoying the atmosphere. it wasn't predictable to and um, you know, i think everybody was, was really taken aback by it and as you'd expect a now, because a number of people worried that the 2nd one will come up when it 1st happened around $1130.00 i think 10 minutes up towards the authorities, one people, the 2nd one might be coming in a couple of hours. so that should be about. now we're hoping that isn't going to happen across. so i think probably the authorities were just coming cells and making sure that some the repeats as quite which is quite a common phenomenon. understand didn't happen. if you look behind that you can see uh, an inch of the wall. a brick who completely collapsed on to
3:05 pm
a section of my house, which had wooden suspended tools. i punched a few holes in it. this is about 3 minutes is where i slept. so i built my bedroom and my bathroom out of a double skin. wooden was kind of the same style of american houses that probably saved my life. if i have gone for putting bricks, commercial bricks around me, and they would have collapsed onto my wife and i, we wouldn't be here now. so, and we can also is pretty lucky, so we're ready to run the house in time, the tools icon. so we're just waiting to hear the rumble, which is of a weird, weird place to be as is as tall continues to arrive in laurel, co international humanitarian groups, all set being in providing much needed assistance we had from the regional director . so for north africa and the, the international federation of the red cross and red crescent societies, heezer is dealing with the points off them off is
3:06 pm
a race against time as the top priority now and we are working on multiple phones, the search and rescue to get to those trouts, to get them the medical emergency medical assistance needed and the transports to provide to provide the 1st aid, but also in parallel. critically to take care of the survivors who are homeless, maybe needing food and water. there are many people who are survived pregnant, women, children, elderly and sick. so those are priorities for us as well. so this is a race against time is always in those 1st hours. and we want to also working with them or all right, chris and now, and their volunteers will be on the street from the very 1st dollars to make sure to minimize further injury prevention further injury by making sure that people stay away from gloucester. and usually colossal building at the see copper shelter . this is an area with snakes and scorpions and so on. so sometimes we see further
3:07 pm
you know, indirect, let's say types of injuries. how think from this people on the road, badly damage roles. if we see a lot of motor vehicle accident, so we urge caution and we urge people to really be extra, extra careful. we don't want to make it worse for the medical responders. and the search and rescue teams is being a fast i same day for those as i knew the g 20 summit in new delhi and no less intriguing for our very own union. o'neill is on the rooftop. i saw special seed you for continuing coverage of the g 20 to the yeah, the opening day up the g $24.00. i'm here in new delhi. the 1st time the nation has ever held, the summit is a rump lot was decided upon today just to go through some of the main issues. know
3:08 pm
the g. 20 member states have agreed on a joint declaration that was a 9 spy prime minister and their rent rep moody, earlier on it really signals a big event change because there had been talk, it wouldn't happen the 1st time a junk communicate may not happen because the sticking points were the ukraine conflict and also who's going to pay for climate change. so that appears to have been iron died. we await the final communicate at tomorrow's sunday. and when that comes at, we will of course, bring to in detail and just go through the fine print. but it does seem to be a type of victory, at least for at rush it because it appears to been taken a neutral stance without directly at condemning at moscow. at the g 20 house called for a peaceful resolution of the conflict as well. it is
3:09 pm
a worth floating about the d. 20 may not going forward be known as not any longer because the african union is to become the latest fully fledged member. so g $21.00 maybe just around the. busy 100, that'd be promoted for some years. russia did a china, did it, not india give it sparking invited at the african union to join. and they seem to have fully agreed to that. let's have a look at the remarks from prime minister and to render moody on that. it gives me it's how did i yes, i'm, i, this period in the 21st century is the time to give the entire world in your direction. it is a time when all challenges, many new solutions, and therefore we must fulfill our responsibilities with a human centric approach. india has become a symbol of inclusion. india has proposed permanent membership for the african union in g 20. i am confident that we have consensus on this proposal.
3:10 pm
5 minutes to arrange a movie? announce the visual inclusion the last for can union into the g. 20 book. what's expected tomorrow is that the g 20 will likely become g 21. so we'll have to watch out for that announcement for this big and also on the lines of what india's presidency sold for google south. remember providence and the removing had washington to heads of all states asking for inclusion rather giving out for can union full membership of the blocks. remember us. so communion is mad dog. cool thing. 55 countries we're talking about. so really a more inclusive decision, a taken by missing every new movies and then the entire block. so to say it got
3:11 pm
a strong response from the entire g 20 bill. walk in this, this is really going to benefit both sides is what i would say. and finally, all of the big news from the g 20, when you are proud to be made on your, is that yes, there will be a joint to communicate. and this is a big win for india. i really remember india is role as a mediator as a probable car, as a net goals used or was being talked about. and india finally was able to do that in a way the g. 20 itself is a, is a reflection of multiple letter to the fact that it was in a way that the, the salience of g 7 was a decade ago replaced by the salience of the g 20. i think that the total for the was
3:12 pm
a statement. now what you see before you in terms of the lead does declaration and the discussions that are going on are obviously discussions. so i'm on the very broad, very diverse range of countries at different levels of law. you cannot make development with child who's economic on social cultural composition is, is quite different from each other. so i, i think in that sense it's, it's quite reasonable to assume that, uh, there is a certain, uh, there's a spectrum of views and interest solved to which we have tried to harmonize to produce the declaration for them. of the block was divided. russia and china on one side, also the west on the other or the west. really trying to make these cell for room, which really stands for international economic cooperation into a battle ground to discuss geo political issues. so really they won an meg off
3:13 pm
major announcements by india. of course there are going to be several by law tools and sessions tomorrow as well just to point, dodge rushes for administer circular golf is representing versus interest at the g . 20 plenary sessions with more on that at let's hear from ortiz, maria flores, sir. your laura was mission at the summit and you dally was among other things to draw the attention of the participants to most coast concerns about repeated in various western attempts to pull the decides to the g. 20 global gathering again, like last year and their pressure on india is specifically coming from d 7 countries like these. a fronds in germany under the supervision of the u. s. as they sold to reflect the unilateral approach to the situation around the ukraine. and the final documents of the summits rush, i called it to you for any ization. all the do, 20 and strongly condemned the same day and also repeatedly made it clear it is an
3:14 pm
economic form and should remain as such, india refused to despise west and demands to divide the print in president all the images and ask you to participate in any of the different events here on the indian soil find that in russia has praised the results of the 1st day and the summit stickler ration, but mentions ukraine, but notably, does not condemn russia's involve nice, not a, as in stark contrast to the harshest stands laid out. in the previous years declaration in indonesia that described russia as an aggressor. here's what's russia's invoice, responsible for negotiations. pre summit consultations and advocates and most coast position told us about the newly issued document for uh, blue cross. and school i can say for these will very difficult negotiations regarding the ukraine crisis. first of all, the collective possession of the brakes, countries and all the partners probably has worked off of the 20 member states, refuse to interpret the events in the way that the west ones. we had all the
3:15 pm
accusations against russia for the whole year. the claims to the ukrainian complex has provides the deterioration of the food security situation. now the approach is reflected in a balance form that's today and you will see you tomorrow. it is the language of consensus. i'm the intention to act. it is also important that not any developing economies have come to accommodate position, but also the 7 group of countries on the entire collective west have signed up for this one. and it seems that the balanced global position on the front in conflict was not the only achievement has 320 participants were able to resist the western pressure on other issues as well. yes, the so it was probably one of the most difficult summits of the group of 20 in the history of the forum at the latest level. the approval of the declaration to cool mice, 20 days before the summit on half 5 days on the ground. the task was to resume the trend, has always existed in international organizations, small collateral platforms, working in the interests of the west. this year,
3:16 pm
the g. 20 is the voice of the developing world. from my point of view, this is the key achievement of this. yes, new delhi summit, although the declaration was published, the summits continues on sunday, rushes for minister will be speaking half the finals one future session promoting democracy in strengthening position on the countries belonging to the global majority. that's russia is a part of we have to wait and see what the 2nd day will bring us. what i'm delighted to say that there are very special guest cheap coming on. we have indeed at one very special one. joining us now at manji pure, a former indian diploma. i'm foster you're most welcome. what is the g 20 about at the end of the day, the most capable countries coming together to ensure that the goal does better, that we go the most pressing problems, immediate and long term for human pines. the not just going to not with the countries which are perhaps at the stuff of seeking their place under the global
3:17 pm
sun development and after cost wise for huge amount or development. if they are fox nerves in this game, where there's not really be a great help, not just to be africans, not just of the global thoughts part in fact, to the entire humanity. let's understand. the word today is vastly different from the world of 1945. if i may use a simple expression drawn set long think was the how to day. whether we like it or not. it has moved to the indo percent. whether we like it or not, a shot is perhaps one of the most dominant plans in the way things are happening. so i'm afraid the word an international government says do funds also have to change to deflect, contemporary to gather the adding insult to injury. that is how an
3:18 pm
e u representative at the ongoing g. 20 summit has the trade russell's promise to provide african countries in need with free grain. not only have you decided to pull out of this agreement on the black sea, but at the same time you're taking the port infrastructure to add insult to injury . russia is offering 1000000 tons of grain to african countries in a parody of generosity, what cynicism and contempt for african countries. for a most good decision not to renew the black sea grey initiative. russian president vladimir fulton offered franklinton numerous in countries, the u. n. and soon as here previously for as an agreement between moscow and the last few permits in green supplies to be shipped from you for any input. however, from the crime name claims that is conditions such as facilitating russian agricultural exports have been neglected. oscar stated that it would not be joining the agreement unless the west side of spies of previously agreed upon them
3:19 pm
as that was alive to the ceo of diary hills limited. i'm public affairs alas, kelvin emmanuel, who's doing this from nigeria. calvin, thanks so much for joining us. the up to now, what were your initial thoughts on the statements made by the delegate on russia's promise and to live a free grain to africa as well. thank you so much for having me. i have us always, to be honest with you, i was a be picking up back. i don't think we come in and sign the statements by the representative was fair. i am was in for lifetime diplomatic. so the russia, honestly, the thing that russia has a points, especially when you can see that, that the, because rush, i was sticking out of sweets, rush, i kind of settle payment as to if i get to. and russian bonus carries out fuels for export. so firms seems like a ripped off with us. so all the parts of the world that's used to blend for it's
3:20 pm
likewise i'm on several or that. and very key commodities are shikes plus are on the wall as they do like a we just costing fish on the west on your bad enough. and then the western africa and so many other parts of the world. so, you know, to be honest with you, russian government saying that you said that if it makes sense for you, really, russia is not the types of suites and calories and, and this thing that appeals to do exports. it makes sense for restaurants. such lives are all mirth, a whole dash. i'm also that key. commodity is a good for bell hours all the way through the parts saying the and, and need to are not the, you know, those is bundled, which is why the restaurant below represent the where you turn on government said that the low risk i'm uptake such lies are true and the fits all the width or made the black see and then other parts of the world. so i almost the thing that came in
3:21 pm
the nickel sessions for bringing these greenville back to the table is a tough time. that's as much as the other fox, the whole world wants to solution to these deals, to ensure that 15000000 tons of brings comes back to the global markets. highly flu shot. you skip that b as in full sense. that's the source on the side of this also head. that's the key commodities that green screw bellows to the tops to the black sea crude. both for shut out and sort of fox will do that because i honestly believe that the same for that to be rolled on holistic solution to the conflict in the baltics because of the back. because on the flu shot filed on the upsets in the global lab and chain of key commodities around the world colon. the thing that
3:22 pm
sort of struck my mind was, is the, uh, yeah, sure, the, the data. but basically you said that the f one countries would be offended. the thing that the applicant nation wouldn't be offended if they got grain directly. because, you know, you may remember the reason, one of the other reasons why russian president put them pulled out, was because the grain was the st getting to applegate was stopped. that many, it's of your opinion countries. i'm amazing to the advantage of this. so she grade, but differently african countries will be offended the world to be honest to a, you know, the, quite the number of african countries that impulse grains from russia that's kind of afford to buy the grants. listen, the $1000000.00 metric dollars or 5 is not even is somewhere around 20 percent of
3:23 pm
what major outcomes use, for example, on a yearly basis, and then direct consumes anywhere around $5000000.00 metric thought for a week, for example. so you, you kind of understands and nigeria currently has food inflation of 26.89 percent efficient on officially, my estimates of that nature as good inflation is anywhere on the as the 3rd 65 percent. so you have a new supply, i in this whole situation, this fund or is going to need to for the information i refresher. right? you know, the more inflation goes up, the more the central bank suffers to raise the up arrow and then the fix everything from the pendency on the existing. the loans for commercial bands from this unit or the government has, i'm a little bit of government's are in a very bad position themselves. and that because of that solution of inflation and bone, use spreads and existing debts that the house. so to be honest with you, i, i didn't see 1000000 metric tons of green is going to move the needle in any way.
3:24 pm
and i think it's important, like i said earlier, so you can, you know, and for the united nations for the present thursday, they may have to go on for heavier. busy stick with that, that's just negotiating with the credit, being with the present team to come together to the different i've been asking the president team to come back to the game. do they also given something that we thought? i think that's sort of the part of the argument that as not always, you know, being kept. look, if you're asking for the good thing to come back to do, you're giving something back every don't. what the asking for is asking the key rochelle exports even the brush right out of the sweep network and pack it to for 15 minutes. kind of go. troop probably embellish, doesn't make any sense that they are asking, rush out to come back to the table without allowing russia to explore. so i have just commodities, keep them with these 2 companies spending. when they find the resignation,
3:25 pm
they pretty much accept solution to distinguish on it as collected between our show you great. so in my own, my own view, i think is a time for us to, you know, be pragmatic. when it comes to this, these are realize that won't be the metric tons of greens, africa, i wave are good in a, in a discharge. it just doesn't need one in any way to solve is demand for, for bringing style for can you find the response of developments? so i, i will tell you categorically that the statement that was made by the easy representative . so he was taught to beat them on this expert and them and them, it wasn't diplomatic. and then m d 20 and 50 was an opportunity for do you for japan on for the other members of the jew, several to actually sit down with the restaurant for them. and as i said, you loved road and cost this solution to these green do so many other solutions. that means you could get too much, of course a new shot. so i'm not gonna change the for them to true and i'm very care. let's take minds are not,
3:26 pm
not the way to feel much too sure. she'll speak from to some. yeah, sorry, it says in data. so that's uh, the afternoon confident it gets as much going as it needs as quickly as it can to reduce the face. and that's really, really helpful. part of your 5 dollars kelvin m i l. thank you so much for joining us today here. all right, so you were having some cold whistleblowers conference have kicked off in washington to raise awareness about the struggles of those who report wrong during, in the us government, the disciplines gavin, to discuss their own experiences and offer each other support. all these kind of move in as the details, as if workers observe on ethical conduct, foul play or illegal activities on the job. they have a responsibility to report it well, at least in theory. but we all know that the consequences where an employee speaking up on the job can be serious. u. s. law has been written in
3:27 pm
a way that is intended to protect employee whistleblowers and allow them to report any wrong doing they become aware of to the proper authorities. but what is their employer is the u. s. military or the national security agency? american politician say they want transparency, but when individuals like edward snowden and chelsea manning stepped forward, it didn't go so well. here in washington dc, a conference has been conveyed to discuss the rights of whistle blowers and providing them with the protections that they need in order to report malfeasance among the speakers is c i a whistleblower john kerry onto this conference in my mind in my view since it began has taken on even more important because it is easy for us to forget the challenges that whistle blowers are up against. it's one thing to blow the whistle and then lose your job. it's another thing entirely to blow the whistle, lose your job, lose your family, not be able to work again. and in some cases, as we've heard today,
3:28 pm
commit suicide or attempt suicide. so this is one of these opportunities for a variety of different whistleblower groups to get together share best practices and then figure out ways to make the transition for whistle blowers easier, easier to accomplish. one of the most important examples, i think i've hit pock proceed in american legislation. surrounding whistle blowers is the fact that we actually have a whistleblower protection law in the united states. but it does not offer protections to anybody associated with national security. so if you work for a bank, let's say, or for the department of agriculture, then good for you. go ahead and blow the whistle and you're going to be protected in the those cases. if you are at the c, i a the say the f, b i the pen and gone. you take your life and your career into your own hands and nothing good is going to come of your wisdom blowing. we had an opportunity to speak to some of the guests about their workplace, transparency, concerns and protections for those who come forward to report misconduct. i was at
3:29 pm
the pentagon, i was the director of the defense suicide prevention office when i felt like there were some conflicts of interest over the contracts and i made a disclosure and that forever changed my life. so i became a whistle blower, very unintentionally, because i thought i was just following the federal acquisition regulations. i ended up and removed from my position. and then it took me about 5 years to fight my case, and i eventually was able to win my retirement benefits when i started this journey and i was feeling very alone, i ended up per se, cuz my attorney said, i had spent about $7500.00 by then, and there was about to be unemployed. and she said, look, you're a smart girl, go figure this out. so i thought, well, the best way to figure this out was by talking to people that have also been through this experience. and so i started to look for people to you. i was in charge of coping 19 public data in surveillance. i was asked to post misleading
3:30 pm
data to give the false image of the say things to say to reopen. i refused, and i was fired. and then became public enemy number one of a, of a sort of governors seeking to be president has been relentlessly stocked, harassed by members of the sanchez's staff, both on the government payroll and in this campaign. and although i've received a lot of international recognition and awards, it doesn't help you get through those really hard times. i think we'll have covered a lot of really important topics. it's to me, especially important to have that focus on the veterans affairs agencies and whistle blowers within their because we made promises to people who signed up to serve and we haven't kept them. and it's a very under appreciated, under acknowledged area to whistle blowing. attendees to the conference, had a march to the white house where they had a ceremony unfurled roses and called for the white house. the oldest ceremony in the rose garden.
