russia is coming across the black sea into a turkey and greece, the g and, and that's was north east africa. so the quote from the bits in the middle isn't changing very quickly, but in places like london, it's become increasingly with windy and more of the same is true northern front and it's dried up in spain and portugal, bits of rain currently forward. and so i'm not into and surprisingly mild at 14 degrees, but it becomes delegate, but much warmer was trying to get to assess the wherever was in contrast, in athens. but when he's going to feel better, and he's going to play for the next 3 days, 14 is what you might expect. typically in february. and as i say, that cold air is coming out of eastern europe into this northeastern part of africa, generating another low pressure area, which means a spinning area of developing showers and sandstorms. you know, jerry yeah, that's the 2nd one i've seen this week at the same time. the shares are encroaching more in west africa.

controls the lake area bordering when the is always up to correspondence. telling the story from east africa inventories and not just all of our advocate lead is a meeting for the annual summit. but 1st, let's go to catherine story in nairobi who's following the developments on the ground in eastern d. c. as a cap, and what do we know is actually happening right now, and because we has the city full into them to anything well a m 23 and it's all lies. how not specifically said that they have taken cover, but all the signs that we have seen that i'm 23 flights of e and around the city they have been talking to the residents. in fact, i have just a hard eclipse from one of the command is paddling a residence in book how to go back to that homes of for a little while so that the fighters can clean up. uh and you know, secure will, uh the area and they will uh come back and continue doing business. so they was telling that uh to the residents that we also know uh, in the last 2 days, uh at, um, the government soldiers have been leaving that area so they do withdrew uh from because uh the governm

what do the talks mean for other regions such as the middle east, africa, or a or even the asia pacific? the reason this was significant for, for folks at agent or in africa and latin america is because the russia, in a matter of weeks after trump becomes president, can normalize relations with the united states is referrals the doors open, disabled. what else is possible? i think that there's a huge concern for europe that if the united states and russian normalize relations and they kind of move on without them as what seems to be happening in this conversation. it leaves europe, it varies health physician. why is that? because what does europe actually bring to the table? they don't bring a whole lot to the, to the world table, other than siding with the united states. western europe does whatever the united states wants them to do. that's kind of been their role since world war 2. the problem is that when, when the united states has lots of work with russia and let's normalize relations and let's expand drilling and foil exploration and dominate foy and markets working together. so

but we have to correspondence following the story from east africa home attached to it was an audi. some of our african leaders are meeting for an african new summit. the 1st let's go to katherine sway in nairobi is holding a little developments on the ground in a d. c. so catherine, 1st the any indication of whether or not so because who has actually been taken or whether it is still teetering, when it comes to m, trying to take control of that important location? i. yes, we have seen the empty 3 a rebels and the lines of moving to woods um because towns, so we've seen the marching uh to uh, because uh the city center. and this has happened um the last 2 days. uh, we have seen also the uh government soldiers also leaving because and because of that uh, security guards. uh, we have seen a lot of told me 6 and government offices of people's homes have been looted as well. and also aid agencies. uh who are there um, you know, the properties that have been looted as well. now we've been hearing from um, you know, the entities, we are asking people to state a cons. so the um, you know,

we will be going to the summit, the joint summit of east africa communicate with southern african development, the, the group we're looking for to this. we think it's an opportunity to, to get back on track and to fund we have a solution for the people of this region. what kind of negotiations if at all, are rolanda holding on the current situation. we want the sd lar, which is this london genesee there, that is in the d r c. to be neutralized. well, the help of the book that is happening right now with the government of deer c, financing and fighting alongside them, them stronger. now this group that they have ever been and they're more of a data to us than they have ever been. we want them neutralized, this is what the law under the toxic and i'm going to well about neutralizing this group. we want the refugees for here from scattered around the region to release the to see refugees. to go back to the homes and be safe. they're safe from persecution. safe from attacks, from the hate speech to the government of the receipt has been propagate to forego the form. and we would also like to see

after nearly 22 years in uniform with three combat deployments to the middle east and africa, i'm nowieutenant colonel in the u.s. army reserve where i serve as battalion commander of soldiers in oklahoma, missouri, and arkansas. i served in congress for eight years on the homeland security, foreign affairs and armed services committees. it's my experience in the military and in the halls of congress that have given me a deep understanding of the complex challenges that our nation faces in both roles engaging with world leaders, in both rules being privy to highly classified intelligence. so i know firsthand how essential accurate, unbiased, and timely intelligence is to the president, to congress, and to our war fighters. i also know the heavy cost of intelligence failures and abuses. senator collins, you led the creation of odni to address those failures of 9/11 and iraq's so-called w.m.d.'s, the need for the odni under strong leadership still exists today. if confirmed, i'll bring my experience and fresh eyes to leading the intelligence community, and my day one priorities will be

close attention to the meeting, but what do the talks mean for other regions such as the middle east, africa, or a or even the asia pacific? a? well, i think it means it means a lot for everyone, right, because what they see is polarized position, but the u. s. position on russia was so polarizing for the last 3 years. and really, if we go all the way back to 2014, it's been this way for over 10 years now, a very polarized position that was in direct opposition. the desire to see nato continued to in circle around russia and to isolate russia. that's, that's what we've been hearing now from our leaders in the united states for at least 3 years now, over and over we keep hearing how a rush it must be isolated financially and must be isolated from other global markets that needs to be removed from power we've had lawmakers who have made these wild statements. the reality is, is that if there is any country in the world that is more polarized, in terms of the way the us use and the russian, i wish someone would point to it on a masters part of the reason this was significant for, for folks at a

in recent months, concerns has more responses to such crises in the middle east, in africa, and even ukraine having us into presence of a pulse as to kansas. the conflict between russia and ukraine, conflicts that's raging in the eastern part of the democratic republic of congo in this don, in this a hell. and it doesn't continue to exec, heavy human tall and height and global insecurity. south africa when it comes to a cease fire agreement reached between israel and from us as a crucial success step to what the ending this of the mediterranean crisis faced by their productivity and people in guy stuff. this is file must lay the basis for a just and lasting peace in line with you and resolutions in line with international and international agreed parameters. as they do trying to, we must continue to advocate for the problem metrics solutions to conference. our own experiences south africa is that the peaceful resolution of conflict through inclusive dot is the foremost government tool of sustainable and lasting peace. and also africa kind influence discussions on the global economy a
