they want to lead the global south and they want the global south thatd china and support chinese interestse ambitions on the global stage and you could see it some way that china deals with the global south and certainly china offering the initiative china offering the program and other countries are expected to kind of sign up whether it's the belt and road initiative and because the way this relationship is unequal relationship is developing i think what you're also seeing the other voices within the global south that don't see it in their interest to have china lead the global south. you see, for example with india which is trying to exploit some of the new tensions and divisions that china is facing within the global south. i think going forward what chinese aids are globally in terms of remaking the global order and local confrontation with the united states and the west that this change in nature between the relationship with china within the global south and the role of the globa be increasingly important. >> so it's fair to say that you would say and i think others that china now

south africa icj case against israel. hello, i'm mubarak kenya and welcome. to africa today and this week we are discussing the ongoing south africa's genocide case against the israeli regime at the international court of justice icj. now the case has drawn the admiration of all freedom seekers worldwide. we have a special guest to discuss the topic today. he's none other than south african ambassador to iran, his excellency dr. francis moloy. thank you, mr. ambassador for your time today. thank you very much for inviting me mubarak. it's a pleasure to be here. as you... many freedom seekers worldwide and people who love peace, they have welcomed south africa's case against the israeli apart regime at the icc of his genocidal law against palestinians in gaza. now first can you tell us what was the motivation or the factors behind south africa's move uh to initiate this very historical case? well the the people of palestine have been under occupation for over 75 years and they have not enjoyed the rights and freedoms that

in he says, you know, we welcome you to the south, the south thrilling with new and imagines the south as a and we first start to see the south as a kind of female character. the south needs capital. the south is thrilling with you investment and and in fact what he's offering is women he's offering lots and lots of white who have lost husbands or fathers during the civil war. so there's a, you know, a very large number. white men are wiped out, black men as well. but a lot of white men who are wiped out by the itself. and so there are all these unattached women. atlanta is a city of women, black and white women. and are going to be the hands that going to work in the cotton mills. and so rather than growing cotton, we're also to see industrialization and urbanization and industrialization the urbanization in the south is not actually all it's not what we see here. it's these 20 story buildings. it's taking cotton and turning it into cloth and it's taking timber and turning it into furniture. it's taking tobacco and turning it into cigarets it's taking the raw materials and going one s

south africa icj case against israel. welcome back to africa today and this week we are discussing the ongoing south africa's general side case against the israeli apathide regime at the international court of justice. welcome back mr. ambassador. now uh israeli regime officials have accused south africa of working closely with the palestinian islamic resistance movement hamas and even say that south africa is the legal arm of hamas. what's your take on these uh claims? we had that and that was one of the first uh accusations that uh israel made when we took the case up to the icj and uh well that is in the strategy of uh uh the israeli uh government uh those that it doesn't agree with it will always label them uh in our case now the are we have been labeled as the legal arm of hamas, we have been labeled anti-semitic, anti-jewish and and all this, and this is a strategy that they use to delegitimize, to pour scorn over the principle to course of action that that we have we have taken, and these insults uh really and thes

behavior of the klan in south. we are seeing in the south a massive political insurrection, guerrilla war by another means the klan. as i implied earlier, kind of adopted the cavalry techniques that a bedford forest employed during the war. they attack in the middle of the night. typically, they attack helpless and unarmed people. there's no bravery in anything the klan is doing. there's they are always attacking, helpless and unarmed people. and i'll talk a little bit later about what happens when they finally have to face federal troops. so congress has passed really powerful legislation that gives president the executive authority to to go after the klan to the klan. he does. we're talking now about ulysses grant grant figures very prominently in the book, as you can imagine. it's in the title grant evolved greatly from essentially not very political man before the civil war who briefly owned one slave of a man whom. he gave his freedom. he could have sold him. he needed the money. he didn't. he gave him his fre

you tell us more about these, the reason why south africans are also the people of south africa have come out, to express their support uh to palestinians? yeah, first of all, yes, as south africa, we support fully the struggle of the people of palestine, and the people of south africa on mainstreet, supported that, however, i will say that, yes, it is true, we have... called our ambassador uh from tel aviv since i think 2018, yeah, we have uh recalled all our diplomatic stuff in tel aviv and we have also closed our embassy uh there, and it's not that we have cut the diplomatic t as such ties as such, but we have just close our embassy in tel aviv and it was very clear decision, parliament, which was also followed by the executive decision, yeah, that one of the reasons why we decided to close that was to ensure that we could force in one or another the issue of uh of of the cease fire, but if i may just say pretty briefly that you know south africa, we are the beneficiary of one of the most coordinated, solid international solidarity movements. since the second world war, the anti-a

south dakota, we just kept working. other states were experiencing record high unemployment rates we broke the national record for the lowest state employment just last year. we are creating opportunities for people to get into the career of their dreams. last week we announced an effort to expand opportunities for proportions across the state. we wanted to give workers an opportunity to get trained for a career while still bringing home a paycheck to their family. we wanted to give businesses the support they needed to start and understand apprenticeship programs. in the first two quarters since launching the effort, we've more than doubled the amount of apprenticeships from recent years. and we are just getting started. i knew that if we could to tell our story that freedom loving americans from across the country would want to be a part of what we are doing here. i knew that we needed to celebrate our success and then take the opportunity to capitalize on it, to build on it. i knew we had to show all of america that

south africa icj case against israel. welcome back to africa today and this week we are discussing the ongoing south africa's genocide case against the israeli apathi regime other intern accusations that uh israel made when we took the case up to the icj and uh well that is in the strategy of uh uh the israeli uh government, those that it doesn't agree with, it will always label them, in our case now the we have been labeled as the legal arm of hamas, we have been labeled anti-semitic, anti-jewish and and all this, and this is a strategy that they use to delegitim nice to pour scorn over the principle to course of action that that we have we have taken and these insults uh really and these labels are usually the refuge of someone who does not have a case and and therefore these don't don't mean anything to us indeed and i imagine that we are being labeled. the legal arm of hamas, because in the eyes of israel, hamas is a terrorist organization, so it is regarded, but we do not regard hamas as as a terrorist organization,

interest in the global south and what we call the global south is not new.s back to decolonization movement. over time it has evolved obviously during the reform and opening period of china's in focused on economic developments and getting resources, raw material from the developing world, and also using it as a way to asphyxiation eight taiwan's diplomatic space. but for the past ten years really what has changed is a vision that's much more strategic, much more comprehensive, that is looking at multi domains starting with the economic one, and interest in developing the markets for its companies and the diplomatic area, trying to build coalitions with the t developing countes and international institutions to align with china's political and diplomatic interests. and politically, o partnering, shaping the way countries in the developing world are helping china maybe shaping norms on the global stage. strategic vision where beijing looks at these a a vast area which they can't expand its power, expand its influence. i should maybe start by also saying that

in late 2023, south africa file the case at. international court of justice icj over the israeli apath regime's genocidal war against palestinians in the beseged gaza strip. south africa stated that the telavive regime has failed to uphold its commitments under the 1948 genocide convention. south africa filed the loceit against the israeli regime at the end of december, noting that israel's actions in gaza that started last october are genocidal in character because they are intended to bring about the destruction of a substantial part of the palestinian national. racial and ethnic group. now the un court in its interim ruling on january the 26th, stated that south africa's claims are plausible. the court ordered provision measures that the israeli regime must implement to prevent genocidal acts and allow humanitarian flow into the gaza strip. the israeli regime has ignored this ruling and continues with its us backed genocidal war against palestinians. south africa has been one of the outspoken critics of the israel regimes gen

they want to leave the global south -- lead the global south and they want the global south to fall ind china and support chinese interests and chinese ambitions on the global stage. and you can see this in the way that china deals with the global south and certainly it's always china offering the initiatives china offering the programs and other countries are expected to kind of sign up whether it's the belt and road initiative, global security initiative, global development initiative. and because of the way that this unequal relationship is developing i think what you're also seeing is the emergence of othere voices within the global south that don't see it in their interests to have china lead the global south in the way that it intends. you see this, for example with india which is trying to exploit some of these new tensions and divisions that china is facing within the global south. so i think going forward in terms of what chinese aims are globally in terms of remaking the global order and the conversation with the united states and the west, this changing nature of the relatio

the university of south. 421 course what the south made exhibiting south carolina's industrial i want to start with a quote this quote comes from a very prominent american historian a guy named ed ayres who while the coal mines and textile mills have become a visible and memorable part of southern history, the south's largest industry remained virtually ignored. lumbering is often written off as of little consequence, and little dramatic interest, yet lumbering more often than any other industry, captures the full scope of economic change in the new south, its limitations as well as its impact and about, i don't know, a third of the way through the semester. and i think you guys are already kind of convinced of this, but i thought it might be interesting to share with you a little bit more about how we got to this place. so. about five or six years ago, the national park reached out to usc's department of history and asked us to help them by something called a historic resource survey for the park. so kingery

south that it pretends to be.ose are a few preliminary comments that i want to put on the tt to do is introduce the dean of the school of global affairs without whom we wouldn't be sitting here today and sitting here today. a professor of history at the university of notre dame and the author of 15 books. he was the founding dean of the school of global affairs finishing off the second term now and so is he may tell you it has about eight or nine years of history and he has led us from our birth pains to where we are is a major college within the university, so i'm very pleased that he's come from south bend to introduce the conference here today. so why don't i introduce gene scott appleby to the podium. >> thank you josh. i think with those preliminary remarks we can adjourn the meeting now. [laughter] and enjoy the false spring outside. it would be a false spring. it might be real here in dc. i am really pleased to have the opportunity to thank the atlantic council for partnering with our school of global affai

throughout the global south and working on issues in the globa■l south. to the ambitions going forward he and i will build talk about in the moment but what i want to do isr us put them on the table for us to discuss later. i first want to say it is pretty amazing here that we are talking about this in this environment because in 2007 mitchell and i did a book called china and the developing world beijing strategy for the 21st century. we can barely find a publisher will be did it was a two tone cover. i don't think wee sold many of them and it was not that interested to see all of the interest that have come about since it is quite fantastic. and in some ways we owe too mr. xi jinping himself he has decided to make a change instead of biting and hiding he striving for■wt of that effort to strive for achievement he's been engaging the global south and the rest of the world inag wayse have not seen t before. and so a lot of this development we are seeing over the last decade is because mr. xi jinping decided he was going to strive for achievement.nder that

they're supported by south korean troops. usa, numberone! that's right.rateful for their protection, and these displays of affection are common. from the roof of the town hall, we get a clear view into north korea. so from where we're at right now, we can see from left to right and right to left, a heavily wooded area denotes the border between north and south korea. there are no fences, there are no barriers, and there are no walls that separate north and south. so there is nothing to physically stop the north koreans from walking over into this village here. except for us. except for you. that's right. north korea has also been allowed to keep one village inside the dmz — the village of kijong. though no—one is thought to live there now. so we call it propaganda village, largely because we can observe that many of the windows and doors are actually painted on some of the buildings. oh, yeah, you can see some of the buildings here, right? can you? yeah. can you see the windows that are painted on or are you looking at a building that actually has windows

south africa. which washington fears is challenging. credibly, the hedge and moaning of the so called group of 7 live by washington. the western europeans and japan in washington is also upset because south africa drives the us outline is relevant to the international court of justice on a charge of committing genocide in gossip. washington is concerned that it will be joined into this lawsuit as an theater and a better. similarly, in washington, the us congress is threatening certain free privileges in exemptions that south africa enjoys under the africa growth an opportunity act which is incense thing, kentoria. and then you have to look at the wider regional context. that is to say because of this downturn in washington for tory or license, there might be a silver lining in the cloud because washington is now trying to improve relations with south africa's neighbors and on affordability to gain leverage again, south africa, i'm speaking to the trip to end goal a few months ago by us secretary of

frank smith reports from the south green capital, so supporters of palestine gathered outside south korea, sol central mosque to demand a change in policy toward israel following news of another massacre of innocent civilians in wartorn gaza. the unconditional support of israel should stop and that we need to start refunding ara and letting... aid trucks um come into hazza. palestinians are now starving as the us continues sending israel ammunition, despite the protests of many americans. it's really immoral to be sending weapons to uh uh state or country that is killing uh people uh in cold blood and is committing a genocide. not enough aid is reaching gaza with deliveries chaotic. and even deadly, opening the rather crossing and allowing relief supplies into gaza is simply the bare minimum the egyptian government can do. south korea expressed only deep concern, even though informations going all over the world showing that countless women and children areing massacred in the gaza strip and palestine, they remain silent, and we also condemn the silence of these governments. many suggest

japan would rule until the end of world war ii, an era of south korea. japan relations not easily overcome. many south koreans suggest japan must show remorse for its past and direct compensation before relations between the two states can improve. they decry un's pro-japanese pro-us foreign policy. the south korean government has continued to disregard the hard one ruling for the victims of japanese military sexual slavery against japan, selling off the rights of the victims of force labor in the name of improving relations with japan, it obays the us and obeys japan, enters the framework of the us japan alliance, disregarding the peace process on the korean peninsula, and putting the entire korean peninsula on the verge of war. even many young south koreans recognize the need for japanese contrition. we have to resolve the past in order to move forward. the comfort women issue has not yet been resolved and some people are still alive, so it seems like it's not over yet. when a soul high court last november ruled that japan must compensate the victims o
