a reaction that now particularly from the u. s. our white house correspondent, kimberly how could his set with us the u. s. a. n voice, the region as expressed his disquiet after meeting with both sides of the weekend. come but kimberly, what's been the reaction there in washington? yes, the reaction is coming out of the region and as my colleague reported this timing of the events on the ground is certainly disappointing to the united states. given the fact that there had been a meeting of the special envoy for the horn of africa, geoffrey feltman, and that this has occurred immediately following those meetings, the united states, calling this utterly unacceptable. and the tweets coming out of the bureau of african affairs, saying, as we have said repeatedly, any changes to the transitional government by force puts the u. s. assistance at risk. in other words, if these actions continue, the money that that has been sent by the united states could be in jeopardy. the other concern is that this is essentially a military takeover of the transitional government. and so as a result, there are real concerns that thi

u. s. a u n. reports found the countries like the u. s. australia and canada are actually planning to increase production of dirty non renewables over the next 2 decades above and beyond the limits set in the paris climate agreement. by the end of the decade, 110 percent more fossil fuels will be produced by 2040. that number shoots up to 190 percent. it also appears to make a bit of a mockery of western leaders claims that green energy is the way forward to address to climate disaster facing the nation in our world. by 2050, the united states will be 100 percent energy economy. what the president has clearly done is prioritized climate and investment and climate pushing for climate legislation. taking executive actions on climate, we deploying renewable energy 10 times faster than the global average for pers. stria is on the path why the net 0, the u. k. government has decided to become the world leader in low cost, clean power generation cheaper than co, cheaper than gas. but to go again says that western boasts about the environmenta

u. s. presidential, then had a glass go for the u. n. claim at summit. our white house correspondent kimberly hallett has this update from the vatican. the white house has said that the u. s. president, repeatedly thank the vatican leadership for the efforts that they have made to address the close global climate crisis. we also know that they have been very, very vocal about the efforts by the pope to speak out not only in issues of religious freedom, but also on the wrongfully detained in both cuba and venezuela. what the issue is that has really been amplified and is coming under the microscope here. the g 20 meeting is the fact that as there is the separate for global economic recovery, there is very much disparity when it comes to not just those and having the resources to do so. but also the vaccinations in order to be safe and healthy. and to that end, what we know is that there has been identified goal of the world leaders to try and see that the global population at least 70 percent is vaccinated by the year of 2022. now, this is a tall order, gi

a story from nairobi. the audio recording, which was published online to women, can be heard saying that they work for the u. n. n. e. c. a p s. speaking to a freelance journalist and saying that they believe senior global level, you an official, some senior global level un officials of bias and sympathetic to the to grey and forces. great reason in the north of the country, the fighting, the government, the conflict that the gun just under a year ago, un officials obliged to be neutral, an independent now the voices news agency says through other un work, i tend to fight these to you and officials one who works for the un population funded, another one who worked for the international organization for migration in ethiopia . that view and haven't confirmed the identity of these 2 people, but it has that it is following its own internal mechanisms to address this issue. it's been quite a lot of tension over the last few months between government and not just the u. n, but other international leg, 8 organizations who are working in ethiopia, those 7 officials that the government said it was throwing out there on tanya, tara is

u. s. wants to keep china's border with janice, n as unsafe as possible, and a constant worry by tacitly endorsing. for the very least turning a blind to i, the terrorist groups, and the u. s. in the u. k. m. it's supporting separatist movements in china going back decades. this is all part of america strategy to mess with china, create chaos, divide and conquer. but these added states is making a huge mistake once again. dislike they back the margin in the 1980s to fight soviet. now they're implicitly backing you the terrorists in order to fight the chinese. and, you know, there comes a point where you really have to understand that backing jihadists is not a good idea. there's nothing beneficial that's on blowing themselves up and committing a terrorist attack. i mean, this is incredible. how many times is it gonna take for the united states to realize that backing which i, dean and of gannon, stan or anywhere for that matter is a really bad idea. they did it in the 1980s. they back been loudon. it came back to bite them. it always does. and this is no exception. or for more than we ca

u. s. attorney general wrote a letter to the n, v i n criminal attorneys announcing plans to convert what he called a disturbing spike in harassment, intimidation and threats of violence against school past now, but anti contributor lauren chan, things that many of the accusations in the borders letter have been blown out of proportion. the board's letter does site some specific incidents, but if you actually look at the video footage from those incidents, most of the quote violence that they site is actually things like parents refusing to wear masks at these meetings. a lot of what they side as actually being domestic terrorism or violence actually is just tantamount to some harsh words being said in terms of actual violence. though i believe there's only one or 2 specific incidents that were actually led to an arrest that were mentioned in that letter. i think trying to get the f b i involved at all, frankly, just reeks of political activism. instead of actually trying to put students 1st, and i think parents are completely justified in seeing this as an attack on their rights as paren

who are n p a u. s. or any other foreign countries, presidents, military present, send my on the ground. thirdly, which is where the most important. i think you went through military conflict. we went through law. currently we need to work on the political settlements. taliban must not attract more inclusive to the government. for the political structure region must support taliban with support is borders that we have with the don. we have with the pakistan and center relation and he said to eliminate the cross part of that terrorism and also a sense of those that they start having ideological confrontation with the original countries. 3rd, 3rd, men important think is for the european countries and they use their lift of going to sun and stable situation. the lift up done. it's done facing so many different problems. good. alrighty? no, not having jobs, sir. man there. maria. good governance. so didn't need to support her, the new government here, the transition that should be stable. i'm all, i'd set st

a non starter, i'm told by diplomats they say that the u. s. and many other western countries are opposed to that. so what the u. n is now working on is a different plan, drawn the jack money into the afghan economy and what they're going to try and do is use trust funds. what one from the world bank, one from the u. n. development program, for example, but there are others. i'm told as well and don't put the money into those trust funds and that money in those trust funds will be used to pay for vital supplies use to pay for salaries of, of, or of medical workers of teachers potentially without the money going into the taliban. hands, that is what the 2nd general is working on, and that's what he's trying to persuade. the countries of the g 20 to support and trust his idea on this, james many thanks. james bass, our diplomatic editor there. in new york, afghanistan's acting foreign minister has been speaking in doe har about what he calls a new phase and the taliban relationship with the world. he led a delegation to qatar for the 1st face to face meetings with the u. s. and the e. u. since foreign force is pulle

position that we don't need a 2nd pipeline north stream under the board, dixie, we don't need any more ration guess the u. s. will supply us with their freaking guests, l. n g at ample a volumes. now they are throwing the lean game at russia, and they're really being offended. why doesn't russia, why doesn't gas from supply us with more gas? so that's why i say it's, it's sort of absurd here. instead of asking why doesn't the u. s. suppliers with more el and gee, we heard as well. tell us the e u. labor commissioner warning of energy, poverty align that we're hearing quite a bit recently. and because of an already difficult situation for millions of people at high prices is the worst yet to come. in your opinion, it is still going to get worse. because the situation as such is absolutely serious for 2 reasons. um, word economy did not expect the year to pick up speed as soon as it, as it does after the corona crisis, plus european guest suppliers or bias of russian and other guests of volumes did not expect or did not feel up after the cold winter did not fill up their reserves, probably they expected a 2nd after a rather luggage corona year, where doesn'

well, that's all terrifying in this week. bloomberg said that facebook should be given a seat at the u. n. g s that, that wasn't the onion. this is even more disturbing given all the revelations from that whistleblower right. thanks to francis. how can we now know that facebook has been aware of problems like misinformation and harassment all along, but hasn't done anything about them because cracking down would cost them a ton of money. and when they do crack down, it usually means deleting content like this show. well, true, you are pretty hatefully, but now congress is calling for new internet regulations. oddly enough, so as facebook, they even cut an ad about it, which seems like the socially responsible thing to do until you consider the last time congress let regulated the internet that was 25 years ago with the telecommunications act, signed by bill clinton and written by telecom lobbyists, that bill enshrined media monopoly into law and we're still living with the consequences. it's pretty doubtful that whatever facebook is pushing will be much better unless they are on a rider forcin

this is a game changer going into the appeal because it shows the true nature, the true origins that show criminality of the u. s. actions against g o n. now reports that the ca considered kidnapping or killing a sounds have cost even more down on the reliability of us promises and further expose the political motivation behind this case. a quick reminder of what was revealed in september interviews with an entire team of former trump officials suggested senior members of the administration supposedly requested options for killing assigns. one of these alleged options included engaging in a shoot out in the streets of london. if you read all the gory details, you'll be amazed by how hollywood it all is. that was back in 2017 when we can lease published a damning investigation. and to see i hacking tools. this is just how embarrassing things glotts war, the us system. it's the point at which you'd expect the people and organizations involved to react or rather fail to react by saying no comment. but my compare did, they should all be prosecuted for speaking about classified activity inside the central intelligence agency. maybe they di
