security council resolution yes the credibility of the u.n. is at the play now locally what we have is an international in the government i will not sing in your presence the praise of the government i will not do that because of course the government has made my life extend a difficult to push the government to work together instead of quarreling within the presidential council i have wasted a lot of my time still. you do not want to produce a vacuum you have your endurance when you should what we were working for was a replacement of the presidential council and it a placement of the present cabinet by consensus among the 2 large forces in the country that's what we will get away i think for 1st by bringing the 2 assemblies together but they failed to agree at the end on the mechanism then we brought mr half that and mr severs together and the most crucial point was supposed to be the national conference in that is where in number of issues concerning the constitution the election there were 3 distribution with to be solved by the libyans th

tell you so it was a security council decision and the security council is the present that they will have the will of state. of the united nation as an entity but also the collective security thinking of the states including the major states at a certain point and. therefore don't ask people who work for the u.n. about their thoughts sometimes are not too happy with what the security council produces or doesn't produce well the reason i'm asking it about this is because i know that you've been very disappointed by general haftar you over to alluded to that essentially uprooting the result of your own work of trying to bring the parties together but wasn't his offensive on tripolitania in a way the replay of events back in the spring of 2011 when calls for pilot a call dollop were ultimately used as a prelude for you know lateral military action no i think the situation is very the in the sense that. you have you had the regime established for 4 decades and you had some protests against this regime and then you had an external intervention military intervention by the middle. i accept

to react because the security council 1st does his duty to look after the peace and security in the word and does now contain conflict in libya expand to the best of libya possibly to a neighboring countries therefore it is important that the security council takes care of it but on top of that this him by you have a relation that we are witnessing hitting the hope of the security council credibility so when i said yes to the security council your arms embargo is becoming a cynical joke i meant it because if people not only important but so it of brag about it and the security council does nothing what would be left of the multilateral collective security council it will die but don't you think that this multilateral security council has already effectively rearranged itself because you've been very critical of tears advances on tripolitania but not of the un security council members including russia made very strong condemnations of his move in fact general have to. received almost a presidential treatment last month in in paris which i would say suggests perhaps all the maj

security council couldn't agree. that's absolutely it was a 2 hour meeting of the security council away from the cameras at the end tacked on to another meeting about central africa and in that closed door meeting they were briefed by nicholas hayes the secretary general's special advisor on the situation in sudan he came out of the meeting and as the ambassadors continued to talk among themselves and said he hoped that there would be a common international position that could come out of the meeting that though did not happen and so as you saw the e.u. ambassadors came and gave a statement the statement i think that they would have liked the security council to have made but we got division in the security council why well after speaking to some of those who were in the meeting it's pretty clear what the dynamics were the europeans and the african nations were supportive of a statement by the security council the objections seemed to come mainly i'm told from china who made the view that this was an internal matter

countries the current 5 members of the security council of the european plus some recent ones that have gone off the council. and that's the statement i think they wanted the security council to make or something very similar to that around security council table it was clear from the south african ambassador what's happened and that's when they came up with the idea of coming up with a security council statement one member state one very important member state as a permanent member was completely opposed to the idea of the security council getting involved and that was china they said this is an internal issue that china is representative and we do not want the security council to make a statement i can tell you though also in that closed door meeting the russians seemed to back that idea although they weren't as adamant as the chinese and also that the current president of the security council kuwait didn't object necessary to a statement but certainly when there was some draft language presented i think by the europeans kuwait said it would have some amendments to that language the a

tell you so it was a security council decision and security council is a present that they will have the will of state. of the united nation as an entity but also the collective security thinking of the states including the major states at this point. therefore don't ask people who work for the u.n. about their thoughts sometimes are not too happy with what the security council produces or doesn't produce well the reason i'm asking it about this is because i know that you've been very disappointed by general haftar you over to allude to that essentially uprooting the result of your own work of trying to bring the libyan parties together but wasn't his offensive on tripolitania in a way the replay of events back in the spring of 2011 when calls for pilot a call dollop were ultimately used as a prelude for you know actual military action no i think the situation is very different in the sense that. you have you had the regime established for 4 decades and you had some protests against this regime and then you had an external intervention military intervention by the middle. i accept or

are we going to see a similar statement coming from the whole security council, read out by the presidente council, which, from this month, the last few days, has been kuwait? that is not clear. it is really not clear whether all of the security council are so critical of the transitional military counsel at this stage, whether the three african members of the security council, where they stand, they have certainly in the past have said that the african union should take the lead on this issue, but the african union had endorsed the previous timeline for the handover to civilian control. the military council has now dismissed. also, where, for example, does russia stand, which has put out some noises, some diplomats suggesting they are quite favorable to the transition to the military council, and, remember, very complicated regional dynamics, with countries like the united arab emirates and saudi arabia, we know, having been in close contact with the military in khartoum. thank you very much, indeed. ♪ the u.s. president has promised a phenomenal trade deal for a post->> it -- a post-bre

security council that i think is for several reasons of course any member of the security council can call a meeting but it's partly at the discretion of the president of the security council and clearly that as it's kuwait is an ally of the u.s. so that i think is an important factor in this all the wealth we're telling you that most of the ambassadors of the security council just happen to be going on an unofficial trip to one of the member states which is the dominican republic and most of them have now got on a plane that doesn't mean that they can't be a meeting deputy ambassadors remain here so i says think it's possible if this thing escalates further that we could see the security council meeting ok james meigs thank you. so let's take a look at the type of drone that was shot down the r a q 4 a global hawk aircraft system is one of the u.s. military's most sophisticated pieces of hardware it provides intelligence surveillance in real time and can reach an altitude of 60000 feet that's 800000 meters much higher than a commercial aircraft and it doesn't come cheap industry expe

one of when cases come to the court is where the security council refers it. attaches to the court because we call them situations in respect of countries that are not states parties of course when you have the possibility of somebody blocking that possibility of dream justice. where the court would naturally not reach but i wear a pigeon on the ship it is a matter of concern it is a let's give you a concrete example you want to investigate the abuses suffered by the right injured people me and mine that's that's already china has warned you off your claim of jurisdiction last year in the general assembly was based on an appropriate interpretation of the clickable legal concepts and might make the i.c.c. is work in the future more contentious undermining further its own ferrety and credibility this is a certain. this is the kind of resistance you're facing among the permanent 5 members of the security council russia and similar criticisms accusing you of subjectively interpreted what it called the standards of international law it doesn't matter if they're rig

them trying to get this straight sure nobody likes ones like that and when they voted in the security council to refer to the 4 situation to the i.c.c. they said they voted because they did not like the idea of impunity and for that reason that there were a flurry notwithstanding the reservations about the court this is not just a refusal to cooperate this is a threat to take punitive measures against anyone even daring to investigate the actions of americans on the club or their closest allies with a view to holding them accountable in an international court i.c.c. judges and prosecutors who investigate americans will be barred from entering the u.s. and their friends in the u.s. would be targeted i think that's actually or a question you should. koskinen what that means under rule seriously no known seem to take this seriously you seem remarkably complacent about the fact that the most powerful country on the you sent it wants you dead why do you think is complacency it is taught complacency what i am saying is leave plant and we are getting them to reconsider their position and join the co

i'm not sure the security council has the effective way to count whaer the human rights council does. the actions of course there are subject to consensus with the p five if we don't have the permanent members in agreement we can't get action on security council. i'm not sure that's a substitute. i think using security council is critically important. but i would urge your understanding of recognizing we're going to be dealing with nations that don't agree with us in forums sometimes we can't control the outcome. should we participate or walk away? >> senator, there are members of the human rights council that are the very members that are committing these horrible human rights abuses. >> no disagreement from me on that. >> i mean, i find it just appalling that we have members of a council that are supposed to holding accountable. >> let me go to a second subject. you gave athought views that i strongly agree with in regards to climate change. and then you said you don't want to assume an outsized burden on behalf of the rest of the world. so i want to drill done on that for a moment.

the un security council in the african union to now did moland an immediate transfer of power from the transitional military council to a democratic civilian government led by the forces of freedom and change as well as an immediate end to saddam's internal wars so i think that is a very clear developing from that i think has. your reporters also made clear the protest movement regards what happened this morning as a major betrayal of trust of the sudanese people who were ready to regard the military council as partners in a process of democratization but that trust has been now very severely shaken that has been betrayed you know on the issue of saying we see the value and we can see it apologies apologies are rosalyn but on the issues of the civilian led government even a german official is saying that the violence greatly in danger is the process of handing over a governing powers to a civilian led government is that even still possible at this point or is the solution now in a transition to a civilian government further than ever before. well i think this is being a major step back

a security council meeting because some council members weren't sure whether it would be useful at this stage but certainly that council meeting jus to start any minute in fact the council was in open session discussing central africa they've now gone into closed session is joining that closed meeting going to discuss the situation in sudan as i say the u.k. and germany called for that meeting and at the start of the meeting the german ambassador spoke to reporters. we need urgently a return to the negotiating table legitimacy cannot come from the barrel of a gun but has to be achieved again in the process it's a long one maybe sometimes a painful one but there is no eternity but to this transition to a civilian let is to civilian let government so in so far we do. we do support what to secretary general what also the african union has asked for and again we want this in the security council to want to race attention on the situation we find quite worrying. the german ambassador speaking in his national capacity now clearly the security council have to decide whether it can issue a stat

you have a lot of criticism of the security council, that it is not doing the job it was set up to dofor the maintenance of international peace and security. you do see the rise of many more countries on the world stage, which in itself is a good thing, but as you suggest, it means more computing equities that need to be taken into account in every issue. shery: when you have all of this criticism and undermining of these multilateral organizations, whether the united nations, nato, or the wto , and you have increasing geopolitical trade between the u.s., china, europe, mexico, japan, how does that affect the purpose of mediators? can they play their role as mediators in these conflicts? i think they can. i wouldn't say nato has been undermined or that the u.n. has been actively undermined. you have a great power dynamic at play at the moment with a more aggressive russia and more assertive china, and that exerts its own control. we like to think of ourselves in britain as a free trading nation, so we go about the business of dealing with countries who don't play by the rules. we pref

security council and i've spoken to i think most members of the security council about this they say yes this is a breach of u.n. security council resolutions they've decided though not to call a meeting of the security council not to try and get a resolution a statement by the security council that's because they want to make this diplomacy flourish and they feel that any other pressure on north korea could completely suffocate this process a process that itself looked like it might be petering out if we see this handshake which we think we're going to see and if we see president trump step over into north korea which will be a historic moment. then this process has new life and i think president trump who looks very much things through the optics of how they're seen around the world this will be the perfect photo opportunity and how things are seen domestically well he can say i think you could certainly say you can you can test this assertion you can say this was a great trip i met chairman kim it's all back on track you can say with regard to the g. 20 i had a great meeting with

security council and it's interesting that he's making the stipulation that he needs the security council to get involved because we suspect that on this issue the security council would be divided and they would never give him that instruction so the secretary general very much limiting his role going forward james bays of that diplomatic editor at the u.n. thank you. now a military spokesman for yemen's rebel group is warning civilians to stay away from airports in saudi arabia and the u.a.e. the rebels have already targeted saudi arabia's airport near the border with yemen . is on airports and military sites will continue as long as the war in yemen goes on well hussein. the journalist who we heard from the believes attacks on saudi arabia's airports are a way to get attention from the international community they believe this step was taken after 40 years of. war on yemen and they believe now it's time for airlines those. airport as they stop using airport after the saudis started the war against them and i think it's time because if there is any civilian casualty in the coming days o

some say those missile tests north korea engaged in violated security council resolutions.e productive diplomacy? >> yes, we do believe those missile tests reached resolution was normally we would not let that go. after talking to americans and the rest of the permanent members we decided not to react to the security council at this time so is not to give in any undue attention between 2 things need to happen. one is if there is to be diplomacy, the chinese and russians are claiming, they need to use this time to persuade north korea to come back to denuclearization talks was the second thing that needs to happen is implementation of sanctions particularly the maritime enforcement and. out in the region, helping america and forced maritime sanctions, transferred ship to ship on the high seas as a way of getting around those sanctions. >> the north korean ambassador blasted donald trump for seizing that ship alleging it violated sanctions by exporting coal, as a predictive measure that should be active on enforcing sanctions. >> the president has been clear about the sanctio

security council could britain again join with the u.s. and france in bombing syria because nato nation media is again full of news of alleged war crimes being carried out in it live in the northwest of the country one of those calling for urgent action is the chairman and founder of the syrian network for human rights for their loved will ghani he joins me now via skype from istanbul in turkey have at all thanks for coming on the show what is the situation in libya right now is i think the people being is continuously taking to play you start getting a lot of financial centers and this in which are we documented more than $360.00 civilians being killed including about like 100 children and $65.00 woman so this is a very high level of his religious actually it's taking place since $26.00. of april so they know lots of people have been injured all 1000 civilians as well docking all of the meeting maybe go facilities we did it we recorded 27. and 54 schools have been targeted 34 place all of warship as well that's pretty i.d.p. camps that's

site and he is alarmed by reports that security forces have opened fire inside medical facilities the secretary general reminds the transitional military council of its responsibility for the safety and security of the citizens of sudan he urges all parties to act with the utmost restraint. that was the statement from the spokesman of the secretary general of united nations now also here at the u.n. today the high representative of the european union federico greeny in fact short time ago i watched her leave a meeting she's having a meeting here on venezuela i asked her a question about sudan she didn't reply but her office have issued a statement saying that they deplore the loss of life they say there is no justification for the use of force or the transitional military council is accountable for security and rule of law in the country and have the responsibility to act with restraint so very loud calls coming from the international community for restraint the one body we haven't heard from yet is the u.n. security council currently no member is asked for a meeting on this there are 2 reasons i think for that one we're at the very beginning

security council says a lot about a lot of things but can be regarded as toothless ultimately. well the u.n. security council is ultimately completely split and myanmar knows that it has the backing of china china. basically protected myanmar from the kind of sanctions it should have faced from the u.n. security council you know there should have been refer all of what happened in rakhine state to the international criminal court but you know trying as blocking that to so i mean trying to is defending crimes against humanity and genocide by the burmese military and unfortunate because they're a permanent member of the u.n. security council they get away with it they do say that since then you could terrorist took office as secretary general it does appear to be read renewed recognition of the crucial importance of improve coordination so it sounds as if lessons are being taken on board. well i mean we thought the lessons were going to be taken on board after the debacle that led to the crimes against humanity in sri lanka and there was a bet much better report written about tha

security council meeting i just finished briefing the security council as secretary upon pales request. the previous ambassador to the u.n. nikki haley initially appeared to act independently of the state department and from her 1st moment in the u.n. building signaled a new and tougher diplomatic posture by the u.s. this is a time of strength this is a town of action this is a time of getting things done there appear to be little consultation with the then secretary of state ricks to listen ambassador haley unstring directly to the president. but this all changed when my compost took over the state department and began to play a prominent role in directing the activities of the u.s. mission we think these sanctions would bite as did the new national security advisor john bolton a former u.n. ambassador who was quick to stake his own claim to control we've imposed very stringent sanctions on iran more are coming. and what we expect from iran is massive changes in their behavior i think. it was clear nikki haley's time up for tanami was over and many within the un were concerned about w
