Takes another town held by the world before after. Strained a relationship the Syrian Government seizes the assets of president Bashar Al Assads cousin and billionaire businessman. And sport professional rugby players in new zealand are back on the training failed we report on the countrys efforts to secure its National Sports financial future. So that me United States is facing a growing backlash everetts threat to permanently halt funding to the w. H. O. And that is after president told trump said the organizations missteps have come out and extract costs. And i think theyve done a. Very sad job in the last period of time. And again the United States pays them 450000000. 00 a year china pays them 38000000. 00 a year and theyre a puppet of china. China centric to put it nicely but theyre a puppet of china well russia has become the latest global power to condemn threats its Deputy Foreign minister has been quoted as saying that it is against breaking the w. H. O. For another members political preferences china accuse the u. S. Of attempting to avoid responsibility for the handling of its own outbreak it said the transfer marks were meant to criticize chinas response efforts made the u. S. Tries to use china as an issue to shirk responsibility and bargain over its International Obligations to the w. H. O. This is a miscalculation and the u. S. Has picked the wrong target and they want. The u. S. Leaders open later is full of hints perhaps and maybes and tries to use specious methods to mislead the public and achieve the goals of smearing chinas antivirus if its an shoot responsibility for the United States on insufficient response this is futile what all this comes as Member States voted for an independent investigation into the response to the pandemic and thats something the head of the organization has welcomed and made criticism from donald trump well get reaction from our White House Correspondent can be helped in just a moment 1st lets go to i said back in london has got more from the General Assembly so thats what we have this comprehensive review coming up and just as the u. S. Threatens to withdraw from its. Yes the resolution was on the table for a while it did it had angered china initially when australia proposed it thats because you want to independent investigation into the origins of the virus and china took that personally they thought they were being targeted there was a bit of to and fro and a political spat between those 2 countries but now this resolution was put forward by the European Union and it was cosponsored by 100 and 44. 00 countries now when it went up it had no objections from the 194. 00 members it calls for independent impartial and comprehensive evaluation of the response to covert to to kroner virus including but not limited to the World Health Organizations response now the director general of the World Health Organization dr ted ross has said that they want accountability more than anyone and he will initiate. The investigation that the appropriate time now that this does come at a time where theres been a bit of to and fro and a lot of attacking the United States is attacked the World Health Organization accusing it of not taking it seriously of not being not evaluating the information they had from china and not to warning the world soon enough so that now donald trump has given this 30 day ultimatum but realistically work do to satisfy that work of she say or come up with. Well its very difficult for them to satisfy that when they dont exactly know what donald trump is asking for and hes given them this 30 day deadline but without saying what he wants them to do now some of the allegations theyve been against the World Health Organization is that they didnt warn of the human to human transmission but the World Health Organization say that actually in early january they put out a warning about that also they say that they warned the world this said that theres a risk at International Risk of the crown a virus one day before the United States partially suspended flights from china so the World Health Organization has been defending itself theyve been calling for solidarity and unity in many countries attending this 70 reiterated that message of unity and solidarity but the World Health Organization are also looking for more support and more money but that that comes at a time where when donald trump is threatening to stop funding the United States contribution altogether. All right reza thanks very much indeed for that. Washington across the atlantic is washington going to help is standing by the donald trump very critical we knew that over the show that is threatening to stop us funny that doesnt show we knew that would come to so where are we at now what happens next. Yes so in terms of the timeline were now in a 30 day window for this review and pending that review the outcome could be a permanent cut as weve seen already in terms of the pass taken place and funding to the World Health Organization by the United States this would be a big problem for the World Health Organization because the United States as you mentioned is its biggest donor so the president trumps threat should be taken seriously in fact weve seen these kind of threats from the u. S. President in the past particularly when it comes to china the argument thats being made is that china did not do enough to or rather the World Health Organization that he believes this china cetera did not do enough to war in the United States about the approaching pandemic in fact the argument made by this administration is that it ignored credible reports of the virus spreading and we won in december we should point out a very well respected Peer Reviewed journal here in the United States known as the lancet calls that assertion factually incorrect still its when the u. S. President is making weve seen a strong arm tactics before particular with the trade war with china he even put farmers in the United States at risk a way with those escalating trade and terror of so in order to try to achieve structural change so its kind of the same approach that hes taking here is argument is the u. S. Economys been a blitter rated we should have been better warned about this the u. S. Taxpayer is paying a lot of money and we didnt get our moneys worth so dont expect the u. S. President to back down in fact just the opposite were watching very carefully to see what more he might have to say nic hell be speaking in this hour hes talking from the roosevelt room about food supply and ranchers talking with them he may talk about this he may talk about of other topics were going to be watching to see we will indeed and well come back to you if he does move on to the surface while completely talking thanks very much indeed and can we how can the white house. Well as we mentioned russia has criticized what it calls u. S. Attempts to break the w. H. O. And its big not to be true but use a political analyst at the russian state news agency. And he joins us now from moscow welcome to the program 1st of all just tell us a little bit more about the kremlins position on this well the russian representatives build their walled Health Organization greek it sized as a u. S. Move saying that it was counterproductive and there are from their option a foreign minister Sergey Lavrov said that of course. When i say she needs reform but this free form should be based on facts not on him or since it should not be used for political means right now the impression in russia is that mr trump has failed the situation with corona virus in the United States is bad its or was then in the country that United States going to see this its a near miss its a war zone in china its was done in iran its was done in russia so mr truong decided to make the World Health Organization escapable thats not the right way to go if it was we need International Cooperation maybe its not perfect now but to reduce it to 0 would be just what you write as you well know donald trump is threatening to withdraw funds from the w. H. O. Which is a significant amount of money if that does happen how important would that act be and how would russia respond. Well russia would of course try to respond collectively because despite their very core style a get you out from the European Union and from doing that the states and the russian elite has been trying to cooperate with the west at least for the last surge of 5 years since world war 2 it came to power it was a never ending process of russia making all what you are still the west making concessions of course we cannot sustain that was how someone has ation for all the money but if there is a collective action to prop up that wall calendar when as ation do come up with something that would Link International corporation lore effective russia would be a willing participant and i think is from a handful of coronavirus patients in early march russia now has a Staggering Number of infections itself is not the illness is exposed a russian Weak Health System its. Made people realize how underfunded it is in the bin ventilator accidents has been a lot of bad news out there and i guess in that sense russia needs organizations like the w. H. O. To help it. Well its a lot of fake news what you just mentioned its not bad news russia has done better than the delhi better than spain better than the United States better than the u. K. And thats why theyre angry and theyre producing all these fake narrative about putin on the brink of a disaster in reality russia has the largest number in europe after germany or the largest number of course but the world bats 100000 people in the population thats why we barely passed that threshold of 1000 corona deaths in russia right now russia being a very large country among kind of 46000000 thats an excellent result there is all of that spain italy and the United States can only dream or so this is all a big heap of lies about russia somehow being defeated by iris there is really where im going to be a political analyst at the. Bones there yes it will be very sorry about that we just run out of time we do appreciate your contribution to us thanks very much indeed. Now the un is warning the coronavirus is having a devastating impact on Indigenous People around the world in brazil doctors say the number of critically ill patients being airlifted out of the amazon rainforest has increased by 60 percent since the start of the pandemic.

Now libyas internationally recognized government is continuing its offensive against forces loyal to the warlord who leave to have to in the west of here now from sara hard to isolate just. Oh. Driving through the streets of baghdad and back Government Forces showing that they are now in control of the small town southwest of tripoli. And i am going to cut army found.

The roads through bad and connect the air base to other cities they control near the border they retook what they itself on monday a significant loss to have tons forces who had been using it as their headquarters in western libya since 2014 planes carrying out a strikes against the un backed government in tripoli throughout from here good to have the kind of hard. Work but this time it wasnt their planes the to cough it was their fighters moving behind some of them i mean a shock. But tough times spokesman was downplaying this loss bellman. Been pulling out Strategic Equipment and heavy military gear from the base 3 months ago we pulled out the jet fighters and their ammunition and spear parts only yesterday orders were given for personnel to withdraw under 0 air cover the withdrawal was successful because we moved the personnel and old weaponry and ammunition we have on planes and we will recapture the us. The loss of their air base means have to us forces no longer have a foothold southwest of tripoli and its paved the way for Government Forces to focus on taking back the town hall now. Last remaining stronghold in western libya and a crucial supply hub for his forces to parts of the capital theyve suffered major losses in recent weeks. The more than a year long battle to take control of tripoli has killed hundreds of people so facilities have been destroyed at a time when libya is trying to control the corona Virus Outbreak is the most vulnerable to continue so for superior rest. Migrants Healthcare Facilities are under attack. Civilian infrastructure is attacked or message to all the parties continues to be the same which is stop the violence with the guns and resume the political process. And i say the balance of power is shifting away from have to ask for things and despite them to say i am going for 300 day mark the end of the fast in a moment im just around the horn or it looks like there are no plans for either side to stop the fighting. Does it or. The u. N. Security council is holding a virtual session on libya lets join our diplomatic editor james bays is live for us at the United Nations in new york right now and james in this meeting coming as things are ramping up in libya. Yes absolutely and that was very clear from the tone of the meeting and from the very strong speech that we heard from Stephanie Williams shes the acting special representative of the u. N. In libya she gave a grim assessment of the situation and she said weapons were flooding into the country foreign involvement was growing mercenaries on both sides and the main victims have been the civilian population of libya she said since the 1st though a cruel that had been 248. 00 civilian casualties thats an 89 percent increase on the 1st 3 months of the year and she said the vos majority of those casualties work because of the actions of the forces of the general haftar she said that any crimes on International Law should be brought to justice she also said she was fearful things were going to get much worse. As we surveyed the carnage rocks by almost 15 months of unrelenting violence of the year i believe we have reached another turn point in the conflict conflict from what we are witnessing in terms of the massive influx of weaponry the kryten and mercenaries to the 2 sides the only conclusion that we can draw is that this war will intensify broaden him. Devastating consequences for the libyan people as the foreign intervention increases the libyans themselves are getting lost in the mess their voices crowded out we must not let live the yes or when so where is the diplomacy the u. N. Representative Stephanie Williams said it she thought it was regrettable the announcement by general half to the end of april that he considers the political agreement that they had been trying to perceive dead and consider that he had a mandate to rule himself she said much more positive was the news coming from the g. M. A and Prime Minister saraj that he was open now to talks full talks on the situation in libya were now hearing from the various ambassadors of the countries of 15 countries all of the United Nations one remark just heard from the delegates of the u. K. Who raise the issue of the wagon a group thats the russian mercenary company thats operating in libya in support of general have to believe to be paid by the United Arab Emirates where thinking its likely were going to hear a response to those comments from the Russian Ambassador a little later on interesting or james theyve ever meant james bays at the u.

The Syrian Government to seize the assets belonging to president Bashar Al Assads cousin rami is one of syrias most prominent business men he recently addressed the dispute online where he accused the site of forcing him to step down as leader of syria tell which is the nations top mobile phone operator syrias finance minister says the seizure of my troops assets is necessary to protect money owed to the government for much relief has been seen as a pillar of the Syrian Government and has heavily financed assads war efforts for the past 9 years before the conflict began back in early 2011 he controlled 60 percent of the economy and that allowed him to build an independent power base apart from syria tell his Business Empire ranges from real estate to construction an oil trading there have been reports of strained ties between and its sad that the president announced an Anti Corruption campaign in auk tooba already curry is a senior Public Policy fellow an adjunct professor of journalism at the American University of beirut joins us on skype from beirut to tell us more about this vessel rami this man just tell us more about him who he is and what his role has been as the conflict has gone on. Hes a cousin through the you through the the mother of 1st through the mom who family and. Many others like him probably you know a dozen or so people like him have grown enormously wealthy over the last 2030 years simply by being close to the family and being trusted and the system in a country like syria and the 4th thought authoritarian centralized economy as it used to be a little bit more open now but power essentially meant to have money who had guns the government controlled both of those and let more people share the money in the last 20 years on one but shuttle as it came to power he opened up a little bit more the system to let the private sector play a role and most of that private sector expansion was controlled by people like rami mcclure and others who made huge amounts of money use that money to support the system and to keep the power base intact so hes not particularly unique hes just a little bit bigger than some of the others right this is and this is not unique to syria either this is happening it happens all over the middle east its a little bit like what herman been solomon did when he put a lot of people including royal family members in jail and saudi arabia d and shut them down for billions and billions of dollars and if the apparent motivation here is similar to that situation why is this now marginalizing michael. Well only hazard can tell you why hes doing it anything else you hear from people including me is speculation but the most credible analysis that ive heard from syrians who know the system and have studied syria for years is that acid is passing through a very delicate moment where hes essentially won the war d against the people who try to overthrow him hes trying to do reconstruction and rebuilding his got some upping up to do with that live in other places but hes also got russia and iran looking over his shoulders and there is hopefully they hope theyll be a lot of reconstruction contracts that will also be used to develop more patronage and loyalty hes lost huge amounts of money because of the Regional Economic situation because of the war the pandemics impact the lebanons collapse economically is a big hit so hes got serious serious economic stresses at a moment when he needs a lot of money to start the reconstruction process and reassert his Central Authority over the entire country and his independence from foreign patrons so hes trying to juggle 6. 00 or 7 different blogs at the same time and for all of them he needs money rami appreciate your perspective as ever on this thanks very much indeed thats rami khouri speaking to us from beirut. No but human rights activists. Are calling for the government to help a poor area which has been hit hard by. More than a 1000 confirmed cases in the village 31 which already suffers from crowded Living Conditions and a lack of water run 45000 People Living but it has become a symbol of inequality in the country. Who joins us now from one of the areas that certainly seems to these people suffering. Well thats correct i am right now in what is known as the 31 neighborhood in one of us were just a few blocks away from the city from the center of one to fight it is this is a slum where the government has been doing in the past 2 years lots of working in order to improve peoples Living Conditions but anger in this place is has been on the rise there was a protest earlier today demanding better sanitation among other things especially because Community Leaders from this place passed away just a few days ago because of colvin 19 their relatives are also affected and were told that there is also over 1000 cases in this in this neighborhood and 2 others that are located here in the city of went off site as we were just told by those residents that there were some doctors testing people controlling their fever and testing them for 1000 in order to try to contain the spread of 19 in areas such as this one where the lack of sanitation and overcrowding one of those who died just a few days ago has been denouncing the lack of water Drinking Water but also water to be able to wash their hands even though i didnt you know was one of the 1st countries in the region to impose a complete lockdown and it has prevented the spread of covert 19 nationwide it has not been able to stop the spread in poor neighborhoods such as this one human rights activists is calling for. What is a drug user. Well the government is saying that its doing what it can that it will try to address the issue is argentinas president a lot of the fatah members argentina was one as i said before one of the 1st countries to pose a complete done in order to try to prevent the spread of corporate 19 it has started distributing cash handouts assisting Small Companies among other things in charge of this more specifically is the city of one of society is the city of one aside it has a Different Party that very apparently started out of the finance and theres been lots of criticism about how the situation has been handled in the slums of the north side of the citys government is saying that theyre doing what they can theyre trying to address the water issues affecting these areas in some areas are better than others who are told their deeper inside the slum where they knew where areas are being built are suffering especially for lack of water but what they say is that nobody was prepared to deal with a situation such as this one that ive been trying to address issues as they go. Thanks for that such as about reporting on the villa 31 slum one of our st louis. Well half of chiles 50 member senates have been placed in quarantine on crown of ours for it is said this comes as demonstrated for with police of one of the companys poorest neighborhoods hundreds defied a citywide lockdown to demand food and other vital supplies thats enough for my latin america and its a to see a new man who reports from santiago. And the residents of the community in some town or have begun by blocking streets and screaming we are hungry riot police tried to dispel the crowd with water cannon in tear gas but they refused to budge and responded with rocks and sticks seems reminiscent of the social upheaval that brought chile for months until the coronavirus pandemic saw the pause button hit on protests. A bosc is a poor and overcrowded municipality where the majority struggled to make enough to survive even before they were ordered into total quarantine in mid april a full month before the entire capital was locked down on friday people say theyre not against the quarantine just starvation but. Just get out of here you know this woman that police. This was exactly what many predicted might happen in the face of widespread unemployment and growing hardships brought on by confinement and a deepening recession. The night before president Sebastian Pinera had announced a plan to distribute 2500000 boxes of food and cleaning products for the needy across the country less than 24 hours later he rushed to address the nation again appealing for patience and understanding. What the process of preparing and distributing these boxes demands a tremendous logistical effort a need some time we understand the urgency for many so we are working tirelessly to start distribution by the end of this week or the beginning of next week. But for tens of thousands of chileans who have been left with nothing next week may seem like a lifetime away this latest protest shows that many chileans have already run out of patience and the biggest fear is that this incident could well snowball into far more widespread protests that could be even more difficult to control than chiles earlier social explosion were seeing human aljazeera suddenly out. Protests is in ecuador say theyre more concerned about the future of their livelihoods and of getting covert 19. Yes you know groups a labor reforms will allow businesses to cut working hours wages by half the government says the moves will save jobs but many workers are guarded about having enough to eat according to reports nearly 150000 people have already lost their jobs. Pakistan has launched a program to get emergency funds to people whove lost their jobs because of the pandemic its specifically aimed at people who rely on a daily wage the critics say its too late for many has more now from islamabad. Now gummer dont progress donna started giving out. 75. 00. In order to go ahead eased a situation. Made. By gift on may feared rising unemployment according to a. 1000000 people may be affected and. That would include 1000000. 00 and industrious and too many and thats. The problem a. Fiction that i dont buy gift on the number of 19 right exponentially predict the thing it did. By the government i think i did go ahead put it out of this crisis the problem gets done in one off economy and without economic stability and help from outside august on made millions of people unemployed it got into the planning minutes. The next morning children i did a number of forward 19. Because of the restriction being lifted. Up to. The plate and. I dont for jobs.
