most of the analysis for the netflix and this fire power i guess as well. and even any us forces that would be explored to them at all. but that's not where the resistance access as dennis forties have also declared their engagement in the war already firing some long range missiles and drones stores as well. this one has repeated reward that israel does not stop its operating double of water regional tension. a ross assigns us such a cover version of our meeting to emerge just finally on the program. only bring to site asia where in pakistan's capital, most of the crowds fill the streets to march and condemn the violence being seen in gowns. a local reporter, i'm a do lockout send this prefix. the nissan does not

have is i think and saying this is generally consider the not just the new partners fund. we're good with the space on really the size of the country. do you want us to see what's the game? the 5th largest part hassan. right, right. so i guess i wanted to do the bread and the and not really because i've been doing a lot of basing use a lead. are to come do the heavy lifting on, keep you on top of all the big developments this and monday, lots of content to get stuck into there. do give it a check when you come, i'll see you again in just under 30 after another trip to the modus operandi studio . sticklers. the

the hello, i'm the middle of january tuned into modus operandi. summer of 2023. was all eyes on africa between the mass of brick summit which saw the admission of new members and the application of dozens more to join the block to the multiple crews that broke out in former french colonies. we'll take a birds eye view into the de facto leader of the consummate south africa. all right, let's get into the m o the . it was all eyes on south africa this summer. as the brick summit was the invite that everyone in diplomatic circles wanted to receive, had bought

a more prudent attendant in person. this would have been the 2nd time he was seen around the post address this year alone. the war cannot go on forever. for was have to be set to then come to an end at some stage. and we are here to communicate a very clear message that we would like this will to be and that putting around my post that spart as some describe it earlier in the summer. when an african delegation went to st. petersburg in june to present their ideas on a peace plan for moscow and kids. now, speculation looming on whether or not cooling would attend in person due to that questionable international criminal court arrest warrant that was issued south africa. the host nation is a signatory to the i, c. c. they had signaled that they would not abide by the agreement should vladimir

prudent attend, but couldn't join by video link. instead, to avoid making this summit about himself and focus more on the mission of the group. meanwhile, at home, present from a post that is facing an uphill battle to remain in power as he and the amc party begin to lose popularity. joining us to discuss all of this, this is clinton and zoller. he is a journalist and political analyst and commentator at african stream. he is joining us now from nairobi, kenya, thank you for joining us, clinton. so 1st let's discuss the brick summit. this year was posted by south africa. there were a lot of controversies surrounding the summit. so let's 1st start with that rumor that french president and manual ma crone was handing it wanting an invite to the summit. now france was not a member of state, was this a deliberate move by my crone to sort of put around the post in this awkward

position and obviously my cronin didn't get that invite. so was that the right move on south africa's part, especially now given that the, the recent who went to a crew to todd and other african states who were former french colonies. yes, i agree. i think this, nancy was an attempt to come up with a mental position by a, i mean that's not for me. like to say, wow, frankly, is not able to be sung by the things that i did not much to go. i think gift we shouldn't have been very strange, but i think what it is and you said i'm of the dimensions that it made for my crow to, to attend the brakes on it. you said, put, you should know that. and so this exchange policy done that puts it has to do right to be difficult for us. it's a remote res, i'm from has the direction yes, by now to that to the front, which, which i hate instead of making 2 months, which is very strange. is like your friend the i know she's have good. you're

waiting that you're waiting. i'm just on a guess. it's much easier to to the guess this, but um uh, what are the conditions you that's why don't get cousins we think by the way, shooting the attendance. so i just registered that as a guest. you in the sugar to be there. you should, this doesn't make too much, just the quotes and the other sites that came out. what did you should, the description should be more in depth watkins? now you see this out of us from the physical, you know, sort of yeah. did you happen to to, you should put it back instead of just waiting to say just when you finally accepted. but i do come, you didn't know why she'd mutual my to say i can come to the c d i things like in the shows that for like that i didn't want to do that. he just wanted to find a mentor to. but the maintenance i mentioned. ready it was

a lot of the service i need, i just throwing his boss in the stomach. so what to see now that i am getting assigned mutual decent, my interest in when should i be looking at issues that have to be discussed with besides, a number of countries make easy. uh, so the express is joining briggs items. the guys that i wanted to discuss that'd be sunny. but unfortunately, because of this drama, just onto the attendance of what i want to attend, the attendance was put in with us. so that's going to try at least you have, i think taking the focus away from the issues that you're looking for should be looking at the list of issues that we have to get done. and so now we have to focus on the flip. i need to be in so yeah, so do you by doing that? no. no, i mean i definitely just put mine has. i'm my living with the major so you can purchase nothing. yeah. so my goodness meetings with the situation equals or

exceeds so. so all the way i know it's not just korea, each present question is going to attend. what does that mean to attend because we have stories one day present to have a question you had mistaken, but at the end, or maybe she attended. that was the suggestions, that's what we've decided to make to china. so making all these from has taken that we focus from other issues around to see i just, i'm going to see the introduction of the breaks cutting. i'm going to see more decided to this plan election that is going to take so i can do something, munitions that, that now be pushed into this was an inpatient or outpatient. that's probably your watch that before. but i've seen that for the waste moved from from the beginning. they don't want to see we succeed, cause it's rich to that one. so somebody said that was fine with to. so south

africa is also a member of state to the i. c. c, the international criminal court. now, months ago the i c. c issued an arrest warrant for the russian president vladimir putin, over the alleged kidnapping of ukrainian orphans. we've heard from south african officials such as the foreign minister and the lady, pandora, and a and c secretary general q a. and baloo, who said they would have waived this warrant in favor of prudence, actually attending the summit. and obviously you didn't go in person. so they were not put in this tough position, but were there any repercussions to them on the international stage for this position that they took? i mean, the hague respond in any way that this was like s h one, the number 4 of that in one we're districts to see 1400 costs if you target to. so that's a lot. yeah. names to the submitting. the 1st thing is going to happen,

so like i'll say, wow, so that's definitely need to get to the solution which one is which and so, and then number 2, just like you should see this send to me, this comes from ones. uh, police. what do you guys do for giving during the winter is for sheila, north east. how they nice to see just been seen as a whole. the courts have been discredited and it has done most of the street so, so there's no set up which is good to go. i think that's good, just going to, you know, the water and unfortunately to that they've been put into position. but like i said, i think the government, which is of course, the governments get a response from the political but which is the nc, and seeking them by the easiest city to general the nc. so i can sort of a and see the bottom, the places and submitted this. i've got a couple of deals and i see that is the husband,

kitchens that you put into the dentist that you choose woke up. and so that's good . could you see my, i do not see a government budget from that position and that is important. so busy, very high chance of. i've seen you guys in snowing deep. yeah. oh somebody in this . how does that seem putting in handcuffs? and of course is going to buttress from the eyes to see if i can see what some can do. i mean like what? like, what can they do? so that's like like what punishment are they looking for so, so that's, so is going to show a little when that biased and is, and i think if they took a very nice position. so africa is but also when i talk to you quite a few minutes cuz i'm a little different. so that's a good point. and people from the calling for they kind of withdrawal form. that's the easiest way to do to just try to use like wisdom kind of sticks. some countries that the c a individual didn't receive a thing to me. so i see,

i see you this background check in this and i think i'm just going to give you the fitness to those codes for the kind of portal data to see what that means is what it does. because i work in the medium to see these coaches is distributed, each is seem to be, i need to capture the majority of the people who really died by the i c, c. i people, some of the got, i know 2 people from rest searching. they go to another place, people can see the sea level to be the width have completed the i get this done one people. but mostly you know, that for the lens we see there was actually and c deals. we yeah, the, i just wanted to prosecute certain us, so just to kind of take them to that is that you can shoot a leasing uh, info pulled by this time. would you like us to call you go kitchens? lets see people coming to see it as an expensive, they need to know how to do prosecution side becomes very difficult for this and

just want to see guys to see if airports i the cartridge it just isn't even sourcing. that's. i mean, the issue is definitely come for gifts for the inconvenience i post it solution in the global side we haven't but as you can see that it's my so i think before we go into the. ready elements of with a, somebody, it's due to not to do more questions and say, it's kind of funny enough because he does want me to this kind of friends, or maybe that's what you said you saw. first of all, that's what beats attach for the quote. if it caught the village because i didn't so, so that's we got the info so that's why don't quote you the, i'm on that one is a city sending you some useful minority of people are all just on the west. the work i'm for that is a put in, but if you're going to to honest with you, going to didn't, if you took the semester to see during the governance for the risk, which is what people say not. so i think it would be if they're supposed to be

going to be going against eastern time, but also again is what it's used. and we just looked the majority of the citizens right. coming up next south african president serial run the post was embroiled in a financial scandal. busy that had some critics convinced that sofa gate was proof of corruption. we'll discuss it when we return with clinton and salis, a type, and we'll, we'll be right back the the

sense world war 2, united states as fostered extremist and 2 russian prejudices and hatreds among the ukrainian. the ask for, and at least in canada, the united states and countries in eastern europe probably everywhere. and it doesn't matter what these groups say or do they will support them. if it is, the groups are causing hatred and chaos within the target country. joe again might done on the choose the guns k w instead of do well as low as one of the way. so if it just means that

the printer was using just 50 dollar when the 1000000 other ca uses anyone at any time if there's a religion the the welcome back to the m o m l a chance. so every year, millions of people lose things in the couch, cushions regularly, do your spring cleaning and you'll find, you know, a cell phone remote controls, loose change old snacks. but how about half a $1000000.00 in cash? that was just one of the fights, serial rama posts was facing, losing big money in the sofa, a clinton ins all

a is back with us to discuss it. thank you for sticking around clinton. so let's get into these domestic affairs within south africa. 01. the post i was not that long ago charged with a corruption scandal more than half a $1000000.00 worth. he was recently cleared of any wrong doing. but can you, can you tell us more about that case but many outlets have called so fund gate. ok . yes. so these kids you from us in the us, canada, so by the name of from that to then suit i'm a one is the, the book is which is not all joins big. so. busy that's what a gift card to do to kind of 2020 by the 20, came to the public edition incidence to so it is a story that's something we can cause we find on the dement wake of the funny story about $500.00 and i put in trying to push these to

$582000.00. that was the best. so i the phone. so i get to the reason for the giving today. ready i think i vision, i'm afraid the reason for my doctor comes to get into it and he blends us. what we did was studying the same as mine. oh yeah. and it was supposed to be something like you said this week. i mean, you still have money. i don't know because i discovered that she did not report to the police, but she instructed when you put it into he said, oh, security pulls out all kinds of i had those criminals or those individuals rounded the charts and images some of the money in the web page, some money to add, they will be getting the most of the case so that it can give you the support from the public keys after 6. so what did you want to say that the money then you also want to say he put them in the private provision. what do you say?

why don't you, not you most every time we go into details and we just somebody and you just a 2nd us and then also these up to say and money check keeping for me just give me just a moment. did you try to do my initial impression to see how did you in mind it was manufactured into the judgment seat? yeah. when to deposit to find out the money to seize having to texas. well, the money i saw, the venetians, that's been up for that to push them apart. so the inquiry that was conducted the project always get clear to me. so they said it was not on me. the said on my part i, when he discovered it to replace it to keep 0 secure, excuse digital security was a police officer for the state by default of that it was security. and unfortunately, the 2nd does not get to the doctor told me, it looks like you said you previously, maybe 2014, which is higher. so,

but oh yeah, it does from a processor position. was helpful. so once you, once he's, when well set up as a jump, it smells impeached, was impeached, or did i lose scratch activities? so the, tim, whenever i come to see was when to reach the inside it tags. but just think of, you know, being associated with a bunch of more like almost every, every month, the new horizons kind of sort of opposing $22.00. and he kept the head of the n. c . i've been public and president. he drove unemployment, which is from the judge, see the instant i'll be attending that, but i don't do it. i don't know if this is a nice you used on the line. just a simple vision as he's teaching lessons to think what else and additions. yeah, mr. run my posts as party the and see still maintains a majority in the 400 seat parliament. but it appears that the opposition party f f is gaining traction among voters in the country. did the money scandal that we

called sofa gate impact party popularity at all? and, and can you explain for us the fundamental differences between these 2 parties to yes, so 1st of all, i think the, the model is kind of the sofa keeps going to get is going to the didn't individual some of the didn't see. but unfortunately, that's actually true. that's well, this is already as a student, so much production. that's people i don't know when they feel such kind of like most people they, it's kind of conflict strips to see what options, very someone westbridge in nancy. i'm just the for the success of all this stuff which has been displayed in the previous, i mean for in the recent convictions. so for instance, the last elections that the incident was going to 19 and if i just put 57 percent of the initial for that it was about 5 percent because i'm 5014 that pulled

down 62 percent. so even that 6, you put them into the truck from uh, 249 seats in 2014 to 250 seats extension 19. so it shows that it pops up. we do a lot of support losing support and the people that have been living in the nc and is there a reason why the moving towards the bottom it you don't fight us the is if you see as the. ready well, so that the provision of the n c, you have the ability to see that you, the big him from the decision was if i have friends used to be the dnc and many other people, listen to the people to that the industry has moved from dispatch a couple of issues, it's a start, it fits into the center, i can fix it, whether it's safe not to do the right. so they have to make us a provision will be mc you said partridge to 6 today,

or is the decisions at the end of the meeting? so to do that, but it seems like you, the solution was you if i can just assist you because it comes with uh uh, the rest of it isn't this of interest in the position. i didn't want to just throw 10 percent of the lot in the country. so these are the issues with the n. c has committed itself to him. so, but i think being of, for now it's ridiculous, but much of up and i need looks like a bunch of strategies street. so i can do that agent. that's if i choose from the, from the energy from the yes is that the n c has furnished for the producer unable to meet you in such a search to the position who supported them to what to do. the device has trouble starting the to the end so you have to divide that person over to the. ready which they threw that based on sense, i guess positions so yeah. so lastly,

on the topic of energy independence for africa as a continent. so despite south africa being the continents largest economy, it to suffers from many rolling blackouts. energy is perhaps the biggest single driver for our economies. there are a lot of infrastructure projects being worked out between the african union and china. how do you see those various partnerships panning out in the years to come in this, in this pan african view of it or android? so i think like, yeah, so why don't speak english? i wanted to highlight to say the division between china, and that's the kind of goose by this you. i think you get financing 2000 by china had been nothing much and i think one of the areas, projects that took me to stick it in some guess you meant to submit the transactions on good evidence. well yeah. title when you had a budget and so the government consume up,

we sat there which is definitive logistical it's using, but we went through so that's it got to be support needed to be today to the, to tennessee. i'm doing well to from that jack in 2000. yeah. to the put up the i'm from yeah. first and that was listed on the oil change done because these agents and feasible, i need to know i was looking for a ticket project. it was china that this event you for channels you can just choose to do for just going to the color each just viewed this in the right from the into the color inside. i need to go to put it back in. so that's under key presses. oil or fill out the support of the data because of the situation to then southern virginia from china due to getting plus the 2000 you typed in there. and if you can definitely, what do you see is that you never took it to go. that's in the country, it's not going to be to be now. and then you have all of these, but it's just like,

does it look like to the total sum? yeah. the taking over the up, which is sort of the, i mean, china sticking over the importance of just do it by. can you see this must be i not, fortunately, the little china agenda i'd be giving you the media on something like people. let's see what i wondered about the cypress plants when it comes to this issue. it's china. we have to wait for me. and i think that this too and the other thing that to do with time. but i can get to see the can. what on the bass for the indian, it's an issue. it's a snake in your house during the been the whole house to get rid of this next the find these. ready getting this nick from the house or i'm intending to have. so like as it goes, trying to do that. you have them and this is shina. you should find these are what this in austin and you just seem to do this as you go like what, what happens when punch is able to access. and then to find those from china to find these project each really to give some readings best. instead of getting my

net, which was the electrical, it's additional for yours. didn't get that money from china to view for the at the the good. and that's to be able to find that you, did you get your budget? we should, i mean, it was because they are actually not be getting, you know, like to do the, the efforts i'm sending judgments just so we develop, tentative for me that just gives the sake of only someone who is not even someone who's dishonest with just to get used to this is the present that we need it. i think for the country to be able to leave the most of the people from 4 to become between kind of postage 520205500. 50. it needs to develop is what is what incentives. so i'm the only way that, like i said, if you do double digit finances, it will be going to the cost of judgment,

which was meant for the need to take that. are they going to? yeah. as they say when the chinese com, you get a road or a bridge. when the americans come, you get to lecture, clinton ends all a political commentator at african stream. thank you so much for your analysis today. all right, that is going to do it for this episode of modus operandi the show that dig deep in the foreign policy and current affairs. i'm your house, manila chan. thank you for tuning and we'll see you again next time to figure out the m. o. the take a fresh look around his life kaleidoscopic isn't just a shifted reality distortion, by how us to do vision with no real opinions. fixtures

designed to simplify will confuse who really wants a better wills. and is it just because it shows you fractured images, presented as, but can you see through their illusion going underground can so i see the do not want to do this tomorrow the,

[000:00:00;00] the israel bombards gals that with some of the heavy at strikes and i'm not fast communication networks in the enclave. stall operating ahead of the as old 3 children are among those killed in an idea of striking southern 11 of those furious minds of the conflict spreading, wider and also a head to anyone who might seek to take advantage of the conflict and gas. but to threaten our personnel here or anywhere else in the region don't do it. the us secretary of state visits parked out as part of the middle east diplomatic tour
