S. For nearly 3000 People Killed in the 911 attacks 19 years ago hundreds of people paid their respects to those who died after 2 hijacked passenger jet slammed into the twin towers crowds are limited to because of the coronavirus pandemic democratic president ial nominee joe biden and Vice President mike pence were at the ceremony donald trump observed a minutes silence while on the president ial jet air force one. Well known 11 is also a significant date in chile protesters in santiago have mocked the overthrow of the 1st socialist president 47 years ago Salvador Allende was killed during a u. S. Backed through latin america at its odyssey and human as i riot police were out in force using acid laced Water Cannons and tear gas to disperse demonstrators who come to mark another anniversary of chiles military coup it was the largest demonstration since a state of emergency was declared in march because of the pandemic well lets remember you a country without a memory is a country without history we cant ever forget what happened here on the state. The bombing of the president ial palace and september 11th 1973 the 1st 911 a gate most chileans cant forget. On this anniversary of the military coup reads related to door where president s day and this body was brought out that day. The coup was followed by a bloody 17 year military dictatorship this is the statue of Salvador Allende the worlds 1st democratically elected marxist president and he is facing the same president ial palace where he was overthrown 47 years ago but for so many people the military coup feels as though it happened yesterday. I was a congresswoman and trade union leader and i wanted to resist but that day santiago was overrun by tanks and soldiers the concentration camps and killings that followed were terrible for free and i. Like thousands of chileans fidel majendie was forced to go into exile are all but on this anniversary many hope that a new constitution to replace the one written during the dictatorship will herald in a new period of social change well because we have. The opportunity to probably close the transition period by going to vote for a new constitution in a plebiscite on that doing a fearful over 3 dont like the 2nd im like 1973 we believe that today we can find a democratic nominee to the dreams of the chilean people without bloodshed by building a new pact a social justice. While predictable many were angry that they could not can memorize an event that left an indelible mark on chile even for those who hadnt yet been born you see in human aljazeera sunday. Now the association of Southeast Asian nations is wrapping up an annual summit dominated by tensions between the u. S. And china is being hosted by vietnam although most meetings have been held the need because of coronavirus Foreign Ministers from nearly 30 countries attended north korea the South China Sea and regional Infrastructure Projects have been high on the agenda as scotland joins us live now from bangkok scott so this summit has move a shadowed by tensions between the u. S. And china but what else has been on the agenda as leaders wrap things up that. There and yes it has when you have 2 superpowers the 2 largest economies in the world participating in these meetings yes they will take the oxygen out of a lot of the discussion over the last 34 days but whats interesting is that you know there have been talks about that but you know to kind of counter the increased tension those 2 nations as well as other nations that participate with the Foreign Ministers in bilateral meetings. Japan australia south korea theyre also been taught theyve also been talking about Development Programs and things but also something that has been brought up in most cases commending how the on these 10 nations of us here have dealt with 1000 crisis theres been a fund started by the nations here the 10 nations to contribute by those 3rd party and. To help things move forward but there are still some issues in dealing with covert 19 and the impact of it in this region to discuss this further we bring everyone gil who is with the International Commission of jurists here in bangkok. Talking about this you know when you look at over 1000 and how its impacted these 10 nations of for the most part it has been mild when it comes to the impact the Public Health impact but as you and i were discussing the human rights impact is there though it is the power to find it and it hasnt been a main point of discussion among the Member States in this meeting scott so there has been a lot of discussion on the economic the profound Economic Impact of covert 19 in the region but there hasnt been a discussion on coordinating responses in terms of human rights among the Member States and this is important because 90 highlights are emphasizes the social inequalities of people in the us. There was a. Mention how cool that 19 impacts the livelihoods. Of the vulnerable groups however there was and that you mentioned specifically which while never able groups were being mentioned and discussed in these meetings there was also a mention and i think i should be able i should point this out there was a mention on how Migrant Workers and refugees were impacted but it was in the context of the Self Assessment of us in Member States and how they into the met the consensus on the protection and promotion of the rights of migrants were Migrant Workers and theres no word as to how this Self Assessment was made it would be interesting to know for instance how did its own Self Assessment in terms of protecting the refugees and Migrant Workers in there in its in its country considering. Now that malaysian authorities have been going after Migrant Workers and refugees when you look at this look at this in kind of a grander context has there been any kind of a vent that has impacted because this is were talking were talking about years of economic recovery for all these nations but obviously that is going to greatly impact how these nations and companies in these nations hire migrant and imMigrant Workers so obviously this is going to be a very big hit have we seen anything like this in the near history and and it based on that what can we expect do you think were going to get any more reaction was are going to be kind of status quo for now i think for now it is status quo and you can see that the priorities of the based on the discussions and based on the joint communication that was issued recently you can see that the discussion this mainly towards the companies and there wasnt really a consideration of the impact on those at the at the lowest level so you can see the discussions for instance on Business Travel but there wasnt any discussion about travel of refugees are you know how refugees may be protected theyre welcome in the Member States thank you very much i went in there and as you can hear you know there are a lot of kind of micro issues that really have been brought to the fore in these last several days of meetings because its been overshadowed because of the Economic Impact from covert 1000 but also because china the United States but moving forward is im saying hopefully some of those smaller issues will be dealt with scott thank you.
