Calls for justice, a congolese migrant who was beaten to death sparks nationwide demonstrations in brazil. Ah, senior members of the u. S. Military have arrived in poland as nato bolsters its eastern flank and response to russias military build up on the crating border. Members of the u. S. Chain of command of landed just 100 kilometers from Poland Border with ukraine. Nearly 3000 extra american troops being deployed to poland and romania ukrainian troops have also been training with military hardware delivered by the u. S. As part of a 200000000. 00 security package. Thousands of ukrainians have marched through the north east in city of khaki. If as the stand of continues, concave is just 45 kilometers from the border with russia, ukrainian president laudermill zelinski as warned, it could be the 1st city to be invaded. If moscow attacks, charles traffic was at the rally, thousands of people turned up today in car caves, ukraines 2nd city in a show what they say is unity against russian aggression and russian expansionism. Bear in mind that car cave is only around an hours drive from the russian border and beyond that border of course their own. So tens of thousands of russian troops. The people here today represent various different political policies. An activist group is quite a High Percentage of would also describe this nationally scripture for the mission to use the same and it is the city of car cave. The people that live here are prepared for the worst, and they will defend clark, if, until the last, in a case of a full scale invasion, we would be on the front line here. So just say in such a support seeing a number of people or would it be ready to for you to or are resistant anyway, its important to do like what do i believe my own spirit is all a very not again, its not too right for us on the cultural, so still go to school. I dont believe coolio for me. The good russian is a bad russian. Let them come. Im looking forward to seeing them. I know what i will be doing. I was taught to do that and ive done it in 2014 and ill be doing that very well. Let them come, but were waiting for them. So what is bad for them is good for us. Yes, thats very interesting. Things being said on the stage behind me, a man a few minutes ago saying that if the people here wanted peace, then they should be prepared for war war and saying that if they needed ammunition, there were places where it could be found was push this off again, though, the situation here is hugely complex, Vladimir Putin has said time and time again that russia has no intention of invading ukraine. And there are a lot of people in this area who do express loyalty to was russia. They see russian language and russian culture as being huge significance. But one thing is for sure, certainly at this rally to day a unified voice. Hi, almon is the military expert and Senior Advisor and the atlantic council. He believes the u. S. Reinforcements will have very little impact on the situation. Put this after a new strategic framework in europe that protects russia. And he also wants to prevent further nato expansion. And so those are going to be his long term goals. And my guess is that he will use force symbolically to persist in negotiations. And if he stands down at the end of february, as he said he would then hes going to have all sorts of diplomatic leverage. Because hes going to say to the west, you just cried wolf see. Now lets talk. Now whether the west is prepared for this or not, remains to be seen, but so far potent as the initiative in the west is not doing enough in my mind to take that initiative away from him occupying ukraine would take hundreds of thousands of forces. So what is he going to do . He marches t f. How does he get out . Now maybe he could want to have a border opening to crimea with some people have argue with then he still stuck there. And what hes going to do is to ensure that natal this time is really serious. So as far as im concerned, it makes much more sense for him to use these forces symbolically and diplomatically. And then at the end of the day, he probably is going to be gang something in terms of negotiations. Of course i could be wrong in common sense terms. Hes got all these forces. Why do use them . Well, there were millions or soviet forces on the water of nato, on hundreds of thousands of nato forces on the border of the soviet union. We didnt go to war. So i think war is probably very unlikely in this particular crisis. And certainly one hopes up had sustained a nissan, ethiopia, that a 2 day African Union summit, as the content faces a wave of military coups, civil conflicts had the pandemic. The 55 made the block has been worn to several regions facing various threats to peace and security. The union is also under pressure to push for a ceasefire and its host country, ethiopia, thousands of dine judgments. Conflict with the tech, ron Peoples Liberation front. Our commitment to put a st lust in double abyss in our country shall remain. Steadfast, excellence is less than gentlemen. The greatest listen that ethiopia has learned or the past year is that without the solidarity of our African Brothers and sisters, our existence of the nation would have been at great risk labrador is in adi, solvable with more. These concerns about the number of coups these continent has had to for the past at wanted, have years. 6 of them in total for them in west africa, which has traditionally been known as the cool belt of africans. And they are the eas, the shortfalls uncovered vaccinations in the continent, only 11 percent of the continents of people have been fully vaccinated, sofa and the ease a real need for a push on that. And now joining me to discuss all these are father is a former Prime Minister of the republic of kenya. Im rayleigh, or dean gal who is also a high representative on infrastructure for the African Union. Studying. Are you seeing a resurgence of coups in africa . And there seems to be a disconnect between the lead us and the people. What in your opinion is causing this resurgence of a cruise when people were thinking that africa was finally on the road to democracy. Well, it is a ugly aversion, regrettable development. The continent that to did democratization processes that are used. It started out in the early ninetys is, are the russian and some parts of a continent. A judge begin being begin to see generals on the streets. I took you over the government. I think it is a face, it says to do either the luck tones of, of the limited leadership to actually deliver to the people. And secondly, i also showed you the constitutions. Ah, to extend the town and also the rain is delicious. No silver heads up the rigging of elections themselves and is this the does not a willing to to, to perform according to the requirements of the people . I think this is local. What is her being buck . These are new to crews, and there is also a real challenge with the covered, maintain vaccinations in africa, only 11 percent. Only 2 countries have minutes to vaccinate a 70 percent of their people and thats say, shells and malicious were, you know, have got very tiny populations. What is, i mean . Is there a remedy for this . And you, do you think africa could be able to m intensify its physician process . Certainly is. I think her, this is an area where the us to be a bit of compulsion that the government has really to come out a loan through ford and just a curry. Foster people to go and good luck snitches cuz it is for them for their protection. For example, i so, and king of the government saying that if you dont have vaccination, youre not going to a Good Government services. For example, some people are seeing those unconstitutional and son. But i think if visit being done in order to save life and some of the people that the government is intended to de, took all the measures necessary to ensure that people get vaccinated a 5 year old, who was trapped in a well in morocco since tuesday has died, roccos king announced tray and did not survive the 5 day ordeal.

Weve got some fog and smug problems for new delhi, but plenty of sunshine for pakistan. Lou with sponsored by casara always, americans are increasingly saying authoritarianism might not be so bad. There were several steps along the way where the chain of command its like charging covered on whats your take on why theyve gotten so wrong. That to me is political now. The bottom line on us politics and policies and the impact on the world on al jazeera home. And im told stories from asia and the pacific analogies here. Ah ah, youre watching on there. Our reminder of our top story is this all senior members of the u. S military have arrived in poland. His nato bowles does its eastern flank and response to roches military build up on the ukrainian border. And total President Joe Biden is deploying nearly 3000. 00 extra american troops to poland and romania heads of state meeting. And ethiopia, at the African Union summit, the recent wave of military coups, a civil conflict on the current of ours pandemic topping the agenda. A 5 year old who was trapped in a well in morocco since tuesday has died, moroccos king announced ran, did not survive the 5 date would deal. Rescue was dug out upon the hill side to be able to reach the boy around says a u. S. Decision to restore sanction wave is on to wrong isnt enough. And washington must provide guarantees in order to revive the 2015 nuclear deal. Washington re imposed, the wave is on friday, his talks on saving the agreement, enter the final stretch of vienna. But irans foreign minister says to ra, needs more assurances. Yeah, better americans must show the good will in action. And ill view this means tangible things happening on the ground. Lifting parts of the sanctions in a real and objective manner could be interpreted as the goodwill the americans talk about or so. 3rd, all has the reaction from the iranian capital around is quite significant because this is maybe the 1st time doing the by the notification that the Practical Action is being taken. Iranian had some conditions to take forward the talks and they were asking the immediate removal of the sanctions and all the sanctions regarding the Nuclear Nuclear file. And they were asking for the, what is the cations and the guarantees, by what, if occasion, they are seeing that not all on the paper, but you run needs to see the Practical Actions taken by, do you say that the sanctions are removed and also be, are asking for the guarantees that in case of any nuclear deal, this is going to go beyond by than administration and is going to be binding for the next president of the usa. However, the usa says that it is almost impossible regarding the american political system. But when it comes to the, what if occasions they say that they can give some of the guarantees. So in this sense, the partial removal of the sanctions from the u. S. C is quite a practical to tap and it is welcomed in, in, in, in the u. S. A software that hasnt been direct was between the iranians and americans and the minister of iran apply, you know, said that if the Practical Actions are taken down been might be a direct talks between the 2 parties. And this a step is a kind of Practical Action that cooled a paved way for data tours between americans and iranians. Thousands of demonstrators across brazil and demanding justice for congolese refugee he was beaten to death. The killing of maria cover gama has shocked the nation. He was killed in a beach, signed kiosk, and rio de janeiro, in an apparent dispute about unpaid wages. And hes released footage of him being attacked by 3 men. For 13 minutes. Come are gone. They fled, warn the democratic republic of congo in 2011. This is Douglas Little the brazilian states his racist. It is a nazi state. It is a homophobic and xenophobic state, and it has to stop. But it to be a he, a protesting in solidarity with all the families who have suffered these barbaric crimes that i have been suffering, let spring, and thomas the battles. He is, the brazilian researcher and political analyst, and he joins us now from paris. Thank you. The time, talk me through brazils problem would systemic races good night. Thank you very much for inviting me. Indeed brazil hes a systemic problem with racism. Racism is a reality. And brazil, black brazilians are forced to hold. Ah, the proof are among the poorest crews in the country. No doubt, it is a heritage from. Its a leverage that up to day. We were not able to deal with. They are also the Largest Group victim victim of violence in brazil nowadays. And while they are decomposed, the largest part of people in prisons in brazil, what we see is that the violence against black brazil, as the violins targeting black brazilians, is frequently goes frequently and burnished. I mean there was a time of course in the country with the largest economy and that in america thrived. 1 on slavery, how has brazil confronted its, its racist past me . Has it brazil has had a difficulty in dealing with dis after the end of slavery. No affirmative action was taken to incorporate. Blakely black people in verse in economy. So up today we see this in a galaxies ah, to continue to perpetuate. Its been a 132 years since at the end of slavery. And we do not see lots of changes in the last 30 years. 20 years. We had had some experiences of affirmative action that started there were slowly to change the reality of the country, but still we have a lot of work to do. Categories, death has as sparks these nationwide protests do thing, the country has reached a tipping point. I believe it was the last straw. Lets see. Ah, some people have been comparing decays of cabot gumby with George Floyds assassination and murder. Im sorry in the us. Ah, it shocked for its because of its cruelty of the brutality. And he was tied and beaten to death ah, in rio. And moreover, he was a refugee, and i think that it produced some kind of a shame among brazilians. I mean, we were supposed to welcome refugees, but instead what weve been doing is to mistreat them is to be to these Vulnerable People to death. So in brazil, it was really shocking. And because people started to protest and was shocked by the image is also off of describe ah, what we saw is that an investigation start to, to develop and, and, well, we see didnt mobilization that try to change the reality to impact reality. General elections are our later this year. How do you think that racism will feature it in the elections . So we can see that today, for instance, we had big demonstrations in almost every big brazilian cd demonstrations. Gather the africans. Yes. Proud to con, release the for in brazil, but also many social movements. Whereas Political Parties were not necessarily present in their flag the word there, but social movements were their diverse social movement. Different social movements were gathering and they were claiming for just as they are claiming for the end of racism in brazil. But we also saw together if these are some protests against both from arrow against government that is seen as perpetuating, incentivizing Violence Police brutality. And we know that the mean target of Police Violence and, and brutality and violence in general is the black people in brazil. So maybe these will become an important topic dizzier because we have elections in, in october or i have lived there for time. I thank you very much for your time calling us about us. There is a researcher and political analyst 100. The pretest is a been rallying in the u. S. City of minneapolis. After a 22 year old black man was killed by police officers, a mayor lock was shot dead in his apartment on wednesday, after officers used and no knock search warrant. Oak family says officers woke him while he was sleeping, and in the confusion he reached for a fire on police and canada, vowing to ground down on what they called the increasingly dangerous protest by hundreds of Truck Drivers in the capital on our roads in the city of ben gridlocked for more than a week. Shepherd towns, reports from ottawa. Ah, organizes had builds the 2nd weekend of the blockade around the Canadian Parliament as a family day. Its clear as an awareness of a negative headlines of last weekend when protest is were accused of packing those Wearing Masks and displaying races. Symbols. The blockade began as a protest about cross border trucking vaccine mandates. Even though 90 percent of cross border truckers of accidental and the u. S. In san vaccination too. But clearly its now about pandemic policy in general. Where fed up with these restrictions just 2 years. Everyone logged down get a few, you know what you mean. And those you joined, the protests on saturday also raised a range of issues. The protest organizes who are from the extreme right wing of canadian politics, a demanding the overthrow of the government. But they were also anti faxes, religious fundamentalists, and those raising topics of concern to both the right and left, like the power of pharmaceutical companies, or the Civil Liberties implications of mandates. And then there were those who simply had enough of the pound demik. Everything has been locked down in person lockdown again, spending like days and weeks in my bedroom, and then going all the way back to school and still feeling isolated. The polls do show a majority of canadians all fed up with the handling of the pandemic by both federal and provincial authorities. But they also show overwhelming support for mandates and Public Health measures designed to ease the strain on the health care system. And that makes the organizes ultimatum that they wont budge unless all mandates are removed, challenging. It is difficult to see how this weve covered process to kind of the, the pulse either for and digital drugs or again, pipeline already the prox, swiftly. But these trucks are going to be moved so easily. She ever touched the algae 0 off to india daily, covered 900 numbers remain high with more than a 1000 new debts reported earlier. But it hasnt stopped hindered debo tease in northern india for mocking the spring festival. But sounds punk tommy Day Celebration by worship is taking a dip where the ganges yamuna, and sat.

Launching an investigation offer a huge trawler was accused of dumping 100000 dead fish into the atlantic ocean. The French Maritime minister says images of blue whiting competing. The thea shocking and wants to know who is responsible. Representatives of the market is the worlds 2nd largest fishing vessel. Blame a broken net for the spill. The c shepherd Environmental Group says it doubts vessels. Explanation. Living in the British Isles means youre never, far from the sea, but the Climate Change and rising sea levels, cliffs the crumbling, taking homes with them on top of that storm. Damage and flooding could make some coastal communities uninhabitable, uninhabitable rather within the next 30 years. As during a whole reports from devon, difficult decisions will have to be made on which areas are saved or surrendered to the sea. This is sidney from the devon coast, a georgia town that lost a 100 meters of shoreline in a century. A rate thats now close to double in places on its east beach. The clips have been crumbling for years. Where once there was climate denial, there is now an unavoidable reality. As we watched another section fell into the sea. A certain Climate Change now has to change peoples perception in the last couple years. I think theres a recognition that theres a tremendous danger from Climate Change. Coastal defense is already in place, protect the towns prominent, but theyve affected the natural title drift, making things worse for the nearby cliffs. Down here at the water line, you can clearly see the forces of nature weighing on this landscape down one side. This river runoff made heavier by more frequent storm activity, up above the cliffs, heavy rainfall that saturate the soil from below the waves lapping. Although i pretty much up to the base of the cliffs, their own beach protections washed away. Its a 3 pronged assault making this World Heritage site and others like it all the way up and down the drastic coast. Vulnerable, fragile, prone to collapse. The problem is people live up here, some in large houses with majestic c views and fast receding from lawns. It is worrying, but i assume with the, my age is not going to be a physical problem to myself. But the further down the road you get oversleep, the worry will get larger, and there are gardens that are literally falling into the sea down. Absolutely. And at some stage theyve got to do something to protect the town. A 2020 report by the committee on Climate Change found at 1200000 homes in the u. K. Are at high risk of flooding, and a 100000. 00 more will succumb to coastal erosion in decades to come. Theres increased funding for protection, but not everywhere can receive it. And that means hard choices lie ahead. Basically telling those people who lives there, but you will not be will no longer be able to live here in the next 203040 years, youll have to abandon your house because we can no longer afford to, to protect you. Now those are really the really tough decisions and they, they, those sorts of decisions will, will increasingly be necessary in the future. The homeowners overlooking east beach, clinging on for now, there are plans being worked out by the local council for a protective barrier to be placed in the sea. Its a race to hold back the rising tide. Joan, a whole al jazeera sidmouth. Ah. This is out there, and these are the top stories. The members of the us military have arrived in poland. His nature bolsters its instant flank and response to rushes. Military build up on the ukranian border and told President Joe Biden is deploying nearly 3000. 00 extra american troops to poland and romania had the state and meeting an ethiopian, the African Union so much with the recent wave of military coups as civil conflict on the koran of ours pandemic topping the agenda.
