animals and humans, a fight and get a challenge. living side by side, ah, di one's president says her country will not bounce a pressure from beijing speaking during national day celebrations. shying away and also said her government will continue to bolster its defenses. comes a day off, the chinese president, she shing thing said they'll be a peaceful reunification with the island. in the past week, nearly a 150 chinese warplanes have approached high ones at defense. so robot bride has been following that speech from hong kong. rob said this speech by taiwan is president, comes as we are saying. they're against the backdrop of growing tensions between beijing, anti pay. how important was this speech day, but a sign when didn't hold back in her criticism, a beijing, what did you make of it? that's why there was a typically up beat, very defiant message from a saying when really focusing, i suppose on the increase intentions that we have seen across the straight to the taiwan strait. talking about the chinese that pressure increasing more and more. she said i'd urging taiwanese not to relax. they can't afford to relax, talking about the severe and a complex challenges of beijing. it's expected expansionism into the at surrounding c. she mentioned the east c at where taiwan is located. that is, of course, where we saw the incursion last weekend by these waves of war plains, from the mainland china. interestingly, she referred to these incursions by maidens by a croft these fighters and bombers from the bay land and said it gave that taiwan the chance to show what it has a cause. it scrambles its own fight to jets, to i fly, go up and intercept if they need to. if they up and encroach too closely to the island of taiwan and she said it gave a given the taiwanese, the chance to see all the different hardware that tile taiwan can now brandish. but she also had warnings about what the future might hold. this idea of re unification, holding up the example of hong kong because these hong kong is absorbed back into mainland china on to the so called one country to systems process by which a we are one country. but here in hong kong, it is meant to maintain certain freedoms as certain as things like a right of expression, right of association, right? to demonstrate, have a free press, a free expression and so on. at which, arguably, people here in hong kong say, well, in the last few months with the implication application of the national security law, all those freedoms have simply vanished. they have simply gone away and studying when's message was that taiwan which would be absorbed into mainland china. under a similar kind of process really cannot go down that to pass a she really having a warning. let's here to work. this is what she's had to say specifically about the homecoming example. and what kind of a warning that sends to the people of taiwan they came in kansas younger. yeah, we are faced with a complex and severe challenge. beijing authorities have shown what they've done to hong kong and suppressed hong kong. it's the major development of opening up a reform in history. also in the east china, see the chinese military has a new norm and are threatening us and rob. so how will people in taiwan be viewing this national day? because many, they're view reunification with china as a real threat to their democracy, don't they? well, that's right and saying when said that the basically as no body can a dictate to taiwan, that it has to take a specific path and not even china can do that as a, a path details or out or outlined by mainland china is up to the people of taiwan to decide their future. and so i think she really speaks on behalf of the, the majority though in the island of taiwan. that there are different approaches when it comes to relations with mainland china that they are out. and they are old chinese people's ad, but when it comes to re unification, that is a, a really divisive issue at times that have been attempts by administrations in taiwan. i'm thinking in particular of the quarman tang, one of the traditional a party of government in taiwan. that was empower for decades towards the end of its time in office on the last administration, the k and t had entered into talks with mainland china that possibly could be leading to some sort of closer relationship we've seen in more recent years. people have simply been turned away from that and as we've seen, more saber rattling, more incursions by warplanes, it seems to make people even more determined in taiwan not to forge a closer relationship that they do see that re unification would lose the kind of freedoms that they have enjoyed and this national day celebration is really a chance for a tie. want to send a message back to mainland china to say, look, we are a vibrant chinese democracy. we have a very powerful sophisticated military. the doesn't have quite the technological edge that it used to have over mainland china, but it is still a potent force to be reckoned with. and we are a hugely important economy to the world. and that was repeated references by saying when, as taiwan often does it really appeals and sends a message to the international community, we are part of the a world order. the world leads us. the world needs all semi conductors and chips that we produce in such abundance are really making it appeal that if ever it was challenged and is being challenged by china. and if that ever turned into some sort of conflict, it would be looking to help or from its friends, its allies in the rest of the world at rob, just a final thoughts you before you go. and as you're saying there were talk about china's president, she, she thing yesterday saying he wants to see peaceful reunification with taiwan. yet he's increasing the military component of that pressure. what calculation is beijing making here? there is always this, the implied threat of from bay jing on saturday when she damping was talking about re unification. he stressed that he was peaceful a would be peaceful. there was no use of the word force, but he has talked in more forceful terms. and in the past, and there is this acceptance and understanding that china would never stand for the island of taiwan formerly tried to declare independence and becoming a separate state or country. a trying to regards it as a break away, renegade province. that will be one day re unified. so there is, i think, at a general acceptance that if ever a taiwan took the path of formal independence, that china would react militarily. and in the past, at the given the military support that taiwan has received from the united states with sophisticated hardware, it's jet fighters and so on. it would, could always guarantee that it could resist any kind of any kind of military challenz. that's not so much the case. now we have had a warning from the defense minister infected just the past week that in just a few years time, given the expansion of the military on mainland china. it's not very long before china would be able to, if it wanted to completely overwhelm and take back the island by force or right, or ra mcbride life, or stay in hong kong. rob, thank you. now is the one, some other news, libya's treatment of migrants and asylum seekers has come under intense scrutiny in the past

work pretty well. otherwise this regime. ready cut quotes the old still make it of one person show was not a people's party that there were fault. he used to be before he came the chancellor . this is still the good news that everything works according to the constitution. and there is a system off. the separation of power still kind of works that the traditional system does its job. and most importantly, the free media can do what we expect meeting pre media to do in a situation like this. thousands that gathered in the italian capital to protest against a new mandatory cove at 19 health

voting to decide who they want to represent them in parliament is the 5th election since the 2003 u. s. invasion. that ended the rule of then president saddam hussein and early election was one of the demands by demonstrators during big protest in 2019 ali hush and reports from baghdad. on sunday, ali intense to vote for the 1st time in his life. 2 years ago he saw another fest here in dallas square. oh, thousands of people who came to the streets in protest against corruption, mismanagement, and foreign medlink in iraq suffers was only 70. and he joined them here and it will be done on a good done and then i'm gay. and she at the beginning we were hoping to force a change. we made some baby steps than they confronted us with violence. they killed a lot of young people. so people deserted the demonstrations and demands weren't met at the time. he was thrilled to be part of the anticipated change. but now he says he feels stock between hope and mistrust. wanted to how barbara, in this election, i'm 30 percent optimistic. because if there are good people in parliament, things will change. but if not, everything is going to be the same. we saw we can change, but it's not going to be only me. we all should join forces because all the previous governments of 2003 failed the people. while this selection is his 1st, it's the 5th. since the us invasion in 2003 that toppled the rule of them president saddam hussein. and since the protest in 2019, the only change that's taking place has been the replacement of them. prime minister either abdul maddie with most of all caught the me and his government introduced a new electoral law that was approved by the parliament, replace him bigger constituencies with smaller ones. al cardona dreaded up up was the new law gives academics and professionals that chance to run independently. there are minority, but at least paved the way for a new political road map was that's completely different from the one of the for sale by own more than 640 international observers will monitor the election. however, the european union, steam will have a different mandate. we watch, we document, we take note and we report, we have no mandate for interference. we have no mandate for super wise or interfere into domestic affairs. the main political parties and veteran politicians do most of their campaigning at large meetings. candidates, i make him big promises and gatherings like this. they're aware of the discontent among the voters who are going through a crisis of frost with politicians many or say they want the election to be a vehicle for drastic change. but this is not what those running for office can or are willing to of what the selection isn't only about domestic politics and other countries are expected to influence the vote. it's only natural that there will be influence. there are political parties who are closely connected and related to either regional or international support or have support. and i'm definitely with the idea that iraq becomes an a positive effect has a positive effect on the, on the regional issues, all regional issues and not become a ground for proxy wars. and the more iraq's electoral commission says it expects to announce the result within 24 hours of polling stations glossy. but it's unlikely any block will win outright and a hunk parliament is widely expected. and that would make installing a new government and prime minister in iraq. another difficult task. alisha moses iraq. back that if you open forces of launched a new round of air on ground

yeah, have plaza, the 2 elephants knocked me down. i tried to get up, but saw my me was broken. when they left i crawled for hours to the road to get help. the number of elephants in zimbabwe is estimated to be slightly more than 100000, up from 84000 in 2014. when the last census was done, the national parks authority says the country can only manage about $45000.00 elephant overpopulated. it's unsustainable. the animals are slowly becoming a danger unto themselves. they're destroying their own happy, that they're destroying other animals to bring down numbers. national parks are selling hunting licenses and considering culling some things the bobby loss did in the late 19 eighties. another option for pock officials is to move the animals to less populated parts of the country, but it's an expensive exercise. a few years ago, $100.00 elephants were moved at a cost of about $400000.00. the national parks authority says he doesn't have the funds to keep doing this. this area isn't the one get national park. the largest gamers of, in zimbabwe, across the road, farmers grow crops. that's how close people and animals are living to each other. here. to protect

the new economy opportunities brought by the companies. there we, sol. so a downside earthquakes vicki comes from william intronas burleson. these are not natural movements, i never felt before. i felt for very strong shakes that broke my house. the house started to shake and for a few seconds we all looked at each other and then it stopped. increasingly locals are blaming the practice of fracking for this is miguel to vittie. fracking uses thousands of letters of water and sent that are injected in the soil at high pressure to push out the oil and gas. scientists continue to debate whether the practice can provoke earthquakes. although a recent study in argentina says there is a direct link between fracking and sysmic activity right across this river. there's at least 90 sites

fortify their homes for what is likely to become a regular thing. yeah, not any. i'm always, this is, we're not denying. there is an increase in activity. the importance is how strong the earthquakes are and how to prepare the population. we need to know who was doing it and how and where the population is. we to sit down at the same table and plan how it's going to be done. but almost everyone agrees. argentina's economy struggling and promoting oil and gas extraction is crucial to helping the country recovery yet before. oh perfect. you think? but people like roberto are concerned. he's a
