their demands all diplomas that they can't keep so that's why the international committee too had not through the local authorities but the international community and even though one that comes to the explosion of the heart but i asking for international investigation because they said that they don't trust the local authorities anymore and that's that's one of the issues that my client talked about a little bit but today that is the confidence. of the political. leaders that will take place. on video to help lebanon that's by the by he asking that old the international community all be internationally just. very hard on the current political authorities to make reform one of the main reform political reforms that because they don't trust the system anymore after 30 years too for they can't think that they didn't use the most. thank you very much and keeps ace thank you. now to some of the other stories making news around the world survivors of india's deadliest plane crash in 10 years say the jets waved violently before it skidded off the runway in heavy rain in the southern city of

he's president and ceo of the international rescue committee which helps people in humanitarian crisesormer foreign secretary of the united kingdom. welcome, david. let me ask you to give us an update, because when it -- when covid first hit, there was a bit of almost a paradox, which is that it was hitting the richest parts of the world very forcefully, but in the poorer parts of the world, it seemed to be what was called a very slow burn. what does it look like now? >> well, i think that we're at a pivot point now. the disease is going from a rich country's disease, which is affecting poorer people in those countries more to a genuinely global pandemic. we've seen the exponential growth in latin america, mexico, colombia, but over africa over the last two months a 500% increase in the number of recorded case, and certainly in the health centers that the international rescue committee runs in conflict zones and in refugee hosting states around the world, we're seeing an uptick. i think the critical point to understand is there's so little testing that too often, we're flying blind in

to be, and this is something that macron said, making sure that the recovery aid that the international committee to the corrupt hands. that's what macron said, making sure that the aid goes where it is needed and that the people who knew about this risk and did nothing or held accountable in some way. and a spotlight being shown, the situation economically very difficult, very high unemployment. grace, you touched uponin unemployment. grace, you touched upon in the previous edition of the papers... for lesson on that was a. lebanon has been in a deep economic crisis for at least six months now, but really it started to take its toll at the beginning of the pandemic, when, basically, and lebanon was indicating it was about to default on a huge amount of its sovereign debt. obviously, when that happened, that catalysed a degree of... part of a much broader trend that we have seen over the course of the last several months of a lot of money fleeing many countries in the global south, particular those perceived as a high credit risk and flying into the united states, which is thought of as more safe

they had no prior knowledge of that statement which also indicates that some raj there the international committee the prime minister did not coordinate with his local allies before he took this step on the other hand in top of the. house of representatives which is affiliated to the world khalifa haftar says that it cinequest think it's all military units to hold military operations across the country it also says that providing that the oil production will be resumed in one condition that all. must be deposited in a separate account to be a frozen there until political settlement based on both elin and k 2 initiative being reached in libya on the other hand we can also read several points of difference between the lines because the government of national accord the opposite said that the oil. exports it should be it is you want providing that the national oil corporation this is the state oil firm here in tripoli should be the only institution in title to war on and monitor the oil export patient and oil revenues meanwhile. international reactions also have been coming and the present of the cit

or the international committee that was just before disaster and now you get this disaster and i don't i'm not optimistic that lebanese government would be able to deal with that and this aftermath we need we need more response of the leaders and we need the engagement of the international community to deal with this kind of disaster and i think this is what's needed until we get to that point i think believe in his people by that also for their own ways of and i've been following him and been part of some of these initiatives at the moment and they're they're working you know since that explosion happened by the minute to support each other unfortunately this can take place for katie forgetting for the immediate you know needs but i don't think this would be would last when it comes to rebuilding measure parts of the city or the major part of it which you know the major for this is the major port of beirut that was almost totally destroyed and part of it also the grain silos where the. of the grain and the wheat that actually live mini's and people who live in lebanon need and that's

path forward nor can he convince them that it has a set of reforms which will satisfy the international committee. the french president will be in lebanon offering support. and in a statement from paris, he is meeting the lebanese counterparts to discuss a path forward? >> i think the government is paralyzed. they cannot deliver on a plan. they cannot agree on a reform plan so they can get help from the imf. i believe officials are unwilling or unable to move forward. i don't see a way forward given the history, the first years of how things have been handled and this new government for the past six months has not advanced on any reform. nothing has been introduced. i wonder whether the french president, which is our last hope, whether we can have a deal somehow and move forward. >> do you consider macron's visit, is this a positive move and is the government and given the anger and outrage, is the government at this point in a position to cave i guess is the term we should use? >> well, from what we have seen in the past six months, i doubt the government is going to grab that opportunity. the p

we'll talk about this next conversation like how to moderate, but when we look at how the international committee can really ramp up coordinated action to isolate the maduro regime is-- what i'm hearing, it's really the action against some of the state actors, the russians, cubens and others that are helping to keep these illicit flows moving. would you agree with that? >> i think that the center, as we look at things, what keeps maduro in power, what allows him to operate unchecked, what allows him to continue the strangle hold on his population, why has venezuela turned into a virtual paradise for narco terrorists and thugs of all types and there's interests that are running counter to the interests of human rights, democracy, and i think that those one of the keys is to shift that center of gravity away from maduro. and there's a lot of people working in this space and i think the u.s. whole government efforts have been quite well-knitted. certainly the results haven't gotten to where we want them to be, but there's been great partnerships, with the folks that are on the screen here today. >>

we're having to persuade the international committee of the importance of having iran the leading state national of terror from purchasing weapons. it'll arm terrorists and proxy groups across the region. we've seen more weapons will likely flow. despite the terrible consequences many experts believe that any extension of the iranian arms embargo would be vetoed by russia, by china. what would they want it to expire, and is the chinese communist party really willing to betray global security in order to be iran's arms dealer? >> i hope not but i suspect so. we're working with our e3 counter parts as well. we will submit the u.n. security council resolution in the near future where we will offer to extend this. this was one of the central failings of the jcpoa was to have only a five-year ban on the iranian capacity to purchase weapons systems to build out air defense systems to protect a nuclear program should they continue down that path but also to sell weapons around the world and become again as they were before one of the world's largest arms dealers. we're going to do everything w

the house of representatives has spoken on this, the international committee for international religious freedom has spoken out on this and we in the senate should speak out on it and the time to speak out on it is when we just had an american citizen murdered overseas because of these laws. it is prime time to be able to move this. this is something that i believe should be able to be passed by unanimous consent. how would we oppose the movement of something like this? now, i have heard that possibly we should slow this whole thing down because resolutions like this should have a full -- fulsome committee process. they should be heard and marked up and read and reread and eight months is not enough time to be able to review it. the problem with that is last week a democrat resolution on elections in belaruse was filed, was never heard by the foreign relations committee here in the senate, yet it was discharged, was placed on the hotline yesterday morningnd and cleared last -- yesterday morning and cleared last night. so for democrat bills, they don't have to go through the committee pro
