By state media this weekend those details amount to an official timeline of what the president knew and when on january the 20th she says he issued special instructions to try to contain the outbreak 3 days later the city of woo han was locked down a measure praised by the World Health Organization some analysts say chinas leader appears to be covering his back after mounting criticism that he didnt respond fast enough on one hand.

But despite their words arms have continued to flow to both sides in libya and showing what some might call great hypocrisy the countries who are breaching the embargo are actually all among those here mr foreign minister you talk about a deplorable breach of the arms embargo we know who is breaching the arms embargo they were in the room with you what did you say to them now when all of those who continue to breach the embargo need to know that they will be detected and they will be named we will discuss that with the e. U. Council on Foreign Affairs tomorrow and we will discuss the contribution the e. U. Can make the arms embargo has become a joke and so it you know we all need to step up here and. It is complicated because there are violations that are happening on land sea and air and that all needs to be monitored and there needs to be accountability ultimately attention will now move to geneva the other problem apart from the breaches of the arms embargo is the lack of a ceasefire talks at the uns European Headquarters between representatives of general haftar and those of the internationally recognized government resume on choose day the un have ambitious plans to keep the diplomatic momentum moving they put in a diary a date of the 26th of february for talks with all the libyan Political Parties and then the plan is for elections brokered by the un that if there is a ceasefire and that remains a very big if james pays out jazeera munich.

Again or is an International Criminal lawyer and counsel for victims of the International Criminal court he says security is one of the reasons why the trials arent held in the countries where hostilities happened. Its not clear exactly whats going to happen from here on and so is the prosecutor of the i. C. C. Fighting about souter has already raised the possibility of a trial before sudanese courts in sudan thats what she raised as a possibility with the Un Security Council in december the principal obligation to carry out an investigation and prosecution does rest with sudan but there will be a very big question mark as to whether sudan is not just able but also willing to carry out a full and proper investigation of prosecuting prosecution into the full range of the crimes at issue it concerns of fast company of ethnic cleansing and genocide in darfur so it remains to be seen whether it sudan is is willing to do that within its own courts could a trial take place safely in khartoum thats a big question and if justice in this case is really to be delivered close to where the victims live well then arguably it should not take place in khartoum which should be in darfur under the security situation in dar for in visit the holding of the trial there probably not so these are these are some of the issues so the the security is often one of the main reasons why these trials are not actually held in the country where the hostilities are taking place still had on aljazeera and saudi arabia heads back after one of its jets were shot down by the on the ground again.
