basically that the seriousness of the government is demonstrated because we have allowed the united nation commission for human rights to conduct investigations on the actions of the day. if you've been a soldier, the if your pin national defense force and also that human rights commission was part of this a project that joint project and investigation, acknowledging the wrong doings of some e, n d f. the members of the government that has already been undertaken and there have been a the government has taken the initiative to undertake this a small group, small members of they have been national defense force members to that justice system that we have already in the country. so that is one thing that the government has done, acknowledging that wrong banks and also taking action accordingly. the numbers seem quite low though. i mean prime minister abbey, amid to your point, said in march that any soldier responsible for raping our women in looting communities in the region will be held accountable, numerous in jails. numerous observers have documented the systematic use of rape as a weapon of war in

he's the director of climate change, natural resource management and technology at the united nations economic commission it go far enough for you? the agreement — does it go far enough for you? the agreement is _ does it go far enough for you? tt2 agreement is a compromise. the problem with a compromise when you are dealing with issues as x potential for island states is you are putting that existence at risk through the compromise. the whole purpose of the agreement is that it should be science —based, i think thatis should be science —based, i think that is at the forefront of the text in glasgow and the science tells us they have to be 1.5 to save coral reefs, for example. so the problem with the compromise is that it doesn't go far enough on the ambition itself. the problem was there before glasgow, because the pledges that have been made before were not honoured in terms of the actual cutting of magicians. and the pledges going forward, also not strong enough. secondly, on finance, there is a huge gap in developing countries that need that support to be able to address the immediate needs and also

this kind of accusation, as reflected by the united nations and the ethiopian human rights commissionll actors are involved. they all have to play their roles so we can have peace. the idea to focus on one side and blame one side only is just as foolish -- >> we only have a minute left. william, what would a bigger civil war in ethiopia mean for the rest of the region? in 30 seconds. >> i think ethiopia is obviously a vital country in the horn of africa. we see a raging civil war already. forget the loss of tax breaks for exporters to the u.s.. we already have a devastated country, it devastated economy. we have no idea how many thousands of people have died or could die, particularly as a result of the siege. we see allegations of rape and other atrocities against the tigrayan troops. if this continues, of course it could be -- >> ok. let me give 30 seconds on the same question to samuel. what would it mean for the rest of the region, for somalia and eritrea? >> it means more refugees would be heading to neighboring countries. there will be famine. it will be a breakup of relationshi

over the past year, the united nations and ethiopia, human rights commission, say up to 1000 ethnic to grands, have been detained by security forces. all sides in the conflict have been accused of committing atrocities against civilians. and the fighting has continued. despite a flurry, diplomatic activity, the african unions envoy, foreman, nigerian president or less a good a bassinger is talking to both prime minister abbey's administration. and that degree and leadership, which is listed as a terrorist organization by the government, the u. s. and other international partners, as well as regional leaders, are also involved in peace efforts. we must believe in the fortitude and the wisdom of the ethiopian people. because in the end, these solutions will come from them. what we must do as neighbors is to support is to counsel, is to hold hands is to point in the right direction. both sides of the conflict continued to maintain a hard line position with set preconditions ahead of any negotiations. but here there will be beyond a diplomatic talk. we haven't really see at least public ke

so this kind of accusation us reflected by the united nations and the human rights commission phase. all actors are involved, they all have to play the role. so i can of piece. so the idea to focus on one side and play one side only is just a minute left seconds to each gas very quickly. first william in 30 seconds, what would a bigger civil war in ethiopia mean for the rest of the region? 30 seconds william. well, i mean, i think the answer is obviously the vital country and the horn of africa, we already see a raging civil war. forget, you know, the last of tax breaks, the exports is to us. we already have a devastated country, a devastated economy. we have no idea how many thousands of people have died or could die, particularly as a result of this speech, we see allocations of rape and other charges against the 2. great. and brian, we've also seen those against the. so if this continues, then of course it could be in the honda ok and let me give a quick, 30 seconds on the same question to samuel, what will it mean for the rest of the region for somalia, for a trailer and, and so

of all kinds of violations as reflected by the reports by the united states, united nations and the human rights commission. that puts the blame not just on that he cannot but the children in their sites. so this is really pushing a conflict of begun a year goes to a new development. and the company has so far produced more than 2000000 displaced people as well as has been defined by st. takes one, why a nation that has been the highlight. and this report, and it's not just integrated that this conflict has been happening. it's also and i'm horror enough far i've facing again more than 2000000 people. those are really just awful statistics. thank you for the update. can you samuel get a check in about after months on the whole talks to revive the 2015 iran nuclear? do have been shadowed for the end of this month. negotiations between the signatories in vienna stalled in june, when iranian president abraham racy was elected. the u. s. has welcomed the return to talk since it expects them to pick up where they left off. around one us sanctions lifted in return to compliance with the 2015 deal. us as lani is

and a member of the national preparedness commission in the united kingdom. before joining, elizabeth was a senior research fellow at the royal united services institute for defense studies in london where she founded the modern deterrence project. she has also been an associate fellow at the european leadership, a senior fellow at the atlantic council and a senior consultant of control risk, of global risk consultancy. she started her career as a journalist and was with the times of london in the wall street journal. she is also the wall -- the author of god spies, the cold war as bni's campaign inside the church. in may of 2021, the congressional research service observed that such forgery generated with artificial intelligence could help with the years to come. while the report emphasizes the political risks of deepfakes, including eroding public trust and blackmailing of public officials, they also forewarn much more urgent and dangerous challenges for the future security of the united states. in the military, deepfakes are the new form of deception, and

international engagement including the united nations or foreign governments as the commission knows is criminalized as collusion with foreign forces. and while people of chinese descent have always been the most vulnerable to chinese state persecution, the national security law applies to anyone in the world. hong kong police have issued arrest warrants or have arrested american citizens. this makes it impossible for anyone to be certain of how to support civil society and hong kong without further endangering other people and themselves. appear to be most concerned about support from americans for hong kong's pro democracy movement. many experts have noticed that past and present american politicians bear some responsibility for unnecessarily stoking tensions for irresponsibly nonfaction rhetoric on china. the research on my book shows how ordinary people like scientists and students usually suffer the most when u.s./china relations degenerate. needless anti-communist rhetoric only distracts from and can even discredit legitimate facts and findings about beijing's human rights abuse
