the international community does not only have the possibility to ensure international law is respected. it has the responsibility to do so regardless of the identity of the perpetrators. and regardless of the identity of the victims, had that you and charter been upheld. had the security council resolutions be implemented? these would have prevailed in palestine long time ago, rather than occupation and appetite. that is all we asked port upholding the you on charter and implementing you under solutions. mister president, we must express gratitude for the clear and in a couple cold stance of the international community, condemned condemning violations of international law and in support of just and lasting peace in accordance with the internationally recognized terms of reference . this might be the most established solid, consistent international consensus on any conflict in the world. so what explains that this consensus did not change the reality on the ground. the reality on the ground is the result of failure not fatality. because while the international community has adopted, cle

do you expect a wider involvement of the international community in this situation? well, too bad in the past, based on previous experiences, the a western community. when we talk about international community, it's mainly the west. they have been supportive of israel and had limited a criticism directed towards the israeli leadership. whereas on the other part of the international community, russia, china, where more, let's say, a reserve towards taking a stance most. so i, i don't believe that the international community can play a big role in this regard. in case israel wants to go on a flu, a full fledged aggression against lebanon in retaliation against these attacks. i believe that it needs for american support, which is unlikely in the time being. so we need to wait and see if the americans give their support for such an aggression. we might witness a scale of conflict in the region, and it might not be limited to lebanon. in this case, it might also include syria on other parts, especially the occupied territories garza mainly well, i certainly hope that it do

i believe sincerely if it is concerted effort on the part of the international community can work.antly, very important to emphasize neighboring countries have to be encouraged to maintain their open borders and to be supported in that. it is a great burden countries no matter how generous they may be to take fleeing, displaced persons and refugees, but that can be alleviated by jan egeland and others and the united nations has been done before in what we call complex humanitarian emergencies. i believe that is really important to emphasize. it is very possible, hopefully, even though most foreigners have evacuated their citizens, this does not signal abdicating responsibility for sudan. i would argue it is not only humanitarian, for those in the different capitals in neighboring countries, regional blocks, but also further in the united states -- this is a country whose stability is crucial to the stability of the horn of africa, the red sea, indian ocean, so he'll region, throughout north africa. there largest country in the continent. i think that is something that must be kind

kaouther: honestly it all depends on the international community.ecause if things carry on as they do, kais is going to run out of bogeyman to distract the people with, and i think it will -- he will start targeting the average person that possibly complains about the price of an apple or something. and i think it is become more of a police state like it once was, and possibly worse. with regards to a party like ennahdha, i personally am not from the part. -- party. i think at the moment it is about concentrating on getting people out of prison, getting back to some kind of path towards democracy. and then we can look at the futures of different parties. folly:. ok. amine let me ask you your final thought. what needs to happen to put tunisia back on the path to democracy and stability? amine: first, we need to do everything we can to get political prisoners out of jail. that is in the short-term. on the long-term, we need to be very aware and concerned about the narrative. because if and when kais saied fails, they will be a political space. and we

and i think that's a bit of a condemnation on the international community. why it's happening now? well, in the days leading up to the conflict, breaking out, there was a push from the international community and from civilian political leads to inc. final political deals that they believed would restore transition. the issue however, was that by and king and rushing to the steel who was going to leave a number of issues left unresolved. one of those issues happening, you know, mainly being security sector reform, and the state of the army and the rest. each one which feared that they would be losing power at the expense of another one and a new political deal. despite those tensions clear evidence attention is building between them in the following in the previous week's push to inc, this deal. in fact, there was a dateline for april 1st, that's when we in a lease called for to be expected to be signed. they have the security sector reform workshops, which typically would take months and months of sensitive negotiations and a lot of investment from the global community to ensure t

why do you think the international community was caught so off guard here?ghanistan. we were have supposed to have learned lessons but days before it totally exploded, no one had sight of this, apparently. know and think it — had sight of this, apparently. know and think it is — had sight of this, apparently. know and think it is different _ had sight of this, apparently. know and think it is different to - and think it is different to afghanistan. afghanistan was a long run in conflicts where the escalation of the pace of the taliban and their move uncoupled towards and was a missed but that is different where this is to people were allegedly in alliance with each other and nobody anticipated that they would begin conflicts. these are individuals what were crimes for their earlier actions and our four crimes for their earlier actions and ourfour and nobody crimes for their earlier actions and our four and nobody should crimes for their earlier actions and ourfour and nobody should have trusted them with their words towards each other or to the international

and this is what the international community is worried about. so 1st of all, the, to the main, amos from every for foreign or international community is to put pressure on both parties to main, remain with the ceasefire. and then the 2nd row to go under countries beyond these 2 groups that they don't support these groups in there are in conflict furthermore . and then of course, we have to bring back to health again. this sounds like a dire situation that you expect to escalate just to be clear. how long do you expect in germany will be running evacuations from stan? this is a technical question that i cannot answer. i'm very grateful that our support is running. that well, that the operations that are difficult as such, you know that the airport was under fire until the very last moment. so this is a very dangerous situation and i'm happy that everything went well so far. and as we are going people in the country need more support in the future days to also let's talk about political possibilities here. and who do you think has the power and th

and he also calls on the international community. do more to a vice a farm in plus thousands of people of $40000.00 people actually have died in the last one and a half years. i have the secretary general also held talks with the president about the, you know, of the security, the security situation in the country. we have been talking to many somalis, or who is saying that beyond the aid beyond the help that they need. they want to see more in terms of measures of resilience because a lot of somalis are saying that they need to brick away from the side of violence and dar and drought that we have seen for so many. yes. all right, thanks so much, katherine. so i, russia's parliament has approved legislation that would allow socrates to issue electronics summons to draft these and reservists. current rules require military service notices to be delivered in person. many russians have avoided the draft by moving away from their recorded addresses. the legislation will now goes to the upper house president vladimir putin, final approval

and what could be international community maybe do to solve this crisis? well, the international community, i mean, you know, sudan was taken off of the terrorist list under handbook and things were bidding to normalize to done was beginning to be able to access a through international financial institutions such as the i met and the world bank . and, you know, things were, were starting starting off on the right foot in order to repair some of the damage that was brought to the economy by this year. and also by the loss of south sudan, which, you know, oil rich and provided quite a lot of money for sudan. the, the issue is that both generals decided that rather than have a real civilian transition, they want to make sure that one of them was in charge. and so they allowed the economy to suffer. i think the international community has done its best to try to ensure that there is some financial punishment for both sides. but right now, in order to who to stop things, i think it, it's 2 steps. wonder absolutely has to be a fire. i've spoken to people who hav

the international aid community has a long history of providing assistance in sudan, but the places whereing active fighting like khartoum are places that they haven't historically had to have an active assistance presence. and remember, khartoum has never seen fighting on this scale before. and so it's taken some time for them to reposition their personnel and their assistance to places like khartoum. but also, as you mentioned, port sudan, the sudanese egyptian border, where we're seeing tens of thousands of people make it the difficultjourney to try and leave the active fighting zone, but find themselves desperately in need of assistance when they get there. we're also seeing the places where humanitarian aid is very active, in places like darfur. aid organisations are also being targeted. yesterday, msf reported that one of its hospitals was targeted by the warring parties and that limits their ability to provide assistance, even in places where they have the logistical infrastructure. marty, i wonder if i could just say that it's fair and well for the international community to be ca

although the international community had been putting tremendous pressure on the two military leaderso start the civilian transition again. at the end of the day it was the two generals that started the fighting, despite whatever the international community was doing to them. they were the ones that made the choice. we have seen fighting around the airport in khartoum. as a former us ambassador in this region, what are your instincts and experience to tell you about the potential for that to happen, how it could unfold and when? i personally think and unfortunately the fighting will go on for a long time. i don't believe either side will have problems being resupplied. if one or the other ran out of munitions, that would be one thing but they both have international partners that they can be getting resupply is from. i remain very pessimistic that general al—burhan will prevail and general hemeti can retreat to western sudan, to die for and continue the struggle from there. i hope i am wrong but i feari there. i hope i am wrong but i fear i am may be right. there. i hope i am wrong bu

the international community. we've heard the usa department expressing alarm over the rest of ration. i know she do expect any significant action from the west if this crackdown intensifies in tunisia. and why do you think that the candid condemnation from the west hasn't been stronger, hasn't been louder? because it has been said by culture and by elysium site is the perfect. i'll let you for the far right. europe and we are seeing how the foreign gaming influence, imposing a research agenda everywhere. and i side has made it very clear that the own when it comes to immigration, he lives with the interests of the european, her rights. he wants to do border control them. so really that's something the far right is looking at. and the forest has always been vocal about supporting even to the coop. they are, they, they, they took position publicly in the, in the, in the are appealing problems and support sides actually. and so when, before i gain that much influence in europe, it's obviously lead to political figur

that the international community recognizes the region as a part of russia because as we know at this point in time, only 7 countries has recognized crania as apart question. i think this international recognition is inevitable, rather rather than particularly important for us because the peoples of donors, republic and blue guns can public and people the peoples of those up our osha and harrison regions. they have made already their choice to rejoined russia a choice that was a result of a free referendum and free deliberate voting by the most majority of the voters in the above mentioned areas. so from this point to view, we don't need any additional particular international recognition because the choice was done, the choice has been done, it is reversible and nobody and nothing can change it from now on. but at the same time, we are now doing think the special military operation in ukraine. and as soon as the goals of these special military operation are reached, i mean demilitarization of ukraine. dennis, if occasion of ukraine neutral non block stages of ukraine and others there

certainly not going to be welcomed from the international community as you can imagine.ear and we've talked a lot about oil but this does seem to be an escalation when it comes to literary partnership. i have heard that it is going to be no limits to this and they are going to engage militarily when it comes to sharing information as well as completing joint exercises. they say this is already happening, the kremlin does, in europe as well as far asia and that this is occurring when it comes to naval exercises on the ground as well as an area. vladimir putin for his part has lauded the relationship. we heard for example yesterday from russia that they are now collaborating when it comes to the economy, social issues, even education, social issues, even education, so this is really a stepping up in this relationship which has been so feared by an international community. it is a very interesting visit, it is the first that li shangfu has made since he was appointed defence ministerjust last month and it's the fact it's the first foreign trip he's made is really quite symb

so we're hoping that the international community doesn't forget about chairman. there is a positive momentum and a position like this one. do send a big message a hope. and jimmy could very leaving to see it's very beautiful moments of happiness in such a spiritual crisis. however, you know, again, my name is not making the headlines anymore. and we shouldn't forget about yemen because even if the conflicts and today, the immense, i chose she, we, we to keep working here together. we partner from the human references to suffering of the you back there to sit down, has been assaulted inside his home. and cartoon that's according to foreign policy, chief burrell, he provided no further details of the incident a few hours ago that you and bass that are in sudan was assaulted in his own residency. this constitutes a gross violation of the vienna convention security of diplomatic premises. and staff is the primary responsibility of student needs authorities and an obligation under international law. and clashes between the sudanese and military and the r i sat group h

potential conflicts the outbreak of fighting or did catch the international community by surprise. the fact that the framework agreement was not being implemented on schedule was certainly an indicator that things were not going well. and that there could be difficulties. but to have this, this kind of significant fighting and various parts of sudan all at the same time. i think those clearly surprised the idea will be to go back to the framework agreement, whatever pressure they can on all part is to return to the framework agreement. and ideally to implement it to the point part eventually results in a civilian government and the country. that concept has been pretty much over the short term been destroyed. i don't, i don't see that happening anytime real soon. when you get there, the rapids support forces. i guess most of. ready support from witches is western song all western sudan. in addition, they apparently have a significant military presence at merrill way on near the injection border. that could pose horrific problems even if the situation could be resolved in and around

that's the international community of russia. because as we know at this point of time, only 7 countries has recognized crania as upon question. i think this international recognition is inevitable rather than rather than particularly important for us because the peoples of donors, republic and blue, balanced public and people, the pupils of those up our osha and harrison regions. they have made already their choice to rejoined russia. a choice that was the result of free referendum and free deliberate voting by the most majority of the voters in the above mentioned areas. so from this point of view, we don't need any additional particular international recognition. because the choice was done, the choice has been done, it is reversible, and nobody and nothing can change it from now on. but at the same time, we are now deducting the special military duration in ukraine. and as soon as the goes of the special military operation are reached, i mean demilitarization of ukraine, dennis, if occasion of ukraine neutral non block status

the international community says it won't bailout a political class accused of decades of corruption. it says the financial lifeline lebanon needs will only come through an agreement with the international monetary funds. and that requires economic and fiscal reforms, improper oversight over public finances. but decision makers back by the business elite have not shown interest. so far they've made the public pay for an estimated $70000000000.00 in losses. there is a clear path that has been taken that has seen most of the deposits in the backing says the sector liquidated or near a fide, if what one can say at a very, very discounted rate. and we have seen that for, you know, $3040000000.00 donor. so for all the while the economic situation is worsening with inflation and triple digits. and the reason why you work with the government has been absent, it's done nothing. the economies in ruins and unemployment is high. analysts say, and i am have program would unlock billions of dollars in funding, and also gives investors confidence the country is reforming and many worn without that

the ukrainian foreign minister said, this was a slap in the face to the international community. aid this was another blow to the rules—based system of international relations. since the beginning of the war, ukrainians have criticised the fact that russia has continued to be a permanent member of the security council, with veto power. russia has been using this power to block resolutions related to the conflict. the united states, which has been a key ally of the ukrainians in this war, said there is no legal pathway to expel a permanent member of the security council. in the last few days, the ukrainians have tried to block russia from taking over the presidency of the security council, but the us again said there was no means to block moscow from the post. the authorities in iran are vowing to enforce the wearing of a headscarf by women more rigorously, despite months of protests. a growing number of women have been seen unveiled in public, and hardline politicians are giving judges ultimatums — to punish those who ignore the rules. param ghobadi from the bbc persian service ha
