blah, blah, blah young climate activists march through glasgow demanding more radical action from world leaders at the top $26.00 summit. ah, the political crisis in ethiopia is deepening as 9 ethiopian factions form an alliance against the government. they want to bring down prime minister abbey up at either bite negotiation or by the use of force as the conflict between rebel forces and the central government escalates. the un security council was calling for a national dialogue and a peaceful resolution. my can reports far from the fuel of conflict, ethiopia and opposition groups gather in washington, dc. 9 political and militant group signed an agreement to work together with the expressed intention of removing the government by negotiation or force it to appear as been doing this has been carried out, a systematic racism in the country, almost like appetite in the south africa. but this is the time where we need to recognize every human being in the country. the government has dismissed the alliance as a publicity stunt. but it comes at a time that armed forces from the majority aroma group have joined to gray rebels and advancing on the open capital. after days of private discussion, the ethiopian crisis was due to come under the spotlight and the security council. but at the last minute, the meeting was cancelled. the security council president reading author statement . the members of the security council expressed deep concern about the expansion, an intensification of military clashes in northern the p. o. p. the members of the security council for their express use, concern about the impact of the conflict on the humanitarian situation in it. yoga, as well as the stability of the country and the wider region. it's understood that this replaced a statement that ireland and kenya had been working on, which called directly for a cessation of hostilities. a phrase that russia reportedly objected to. the role of kenya is critical in assuaging african fears. about western intervention in ethiopia. a senior diplomat has told me there's broad consensus that the african union, along with ethiopia, neighbors must take the lead in resolving the crisis. the prevailing view is that african problems require african solutions. but now all, we'll have to wait until next week to see what action if any, the security council takes in support. mike, hannah al jazeera united nations. vicki huddleston is the for me, us charged affairs in ethiopia. she says, mediation is needed. that premise to ave ahmed should step down fast a year ago, the p o p enforcers that represent a country of 100000000 had down defeated grant forces. because out exceptional leadership get occasion. and because they are, people were big star by the prime minister's government when he get great deals to let you and i did nation who in medicine, then they took 2 rows and a year later that you, grand defense forces are literally outside a. so of course others are joining with that most notably the romo liberation front, which used to be opposed to the degree and it's now joined and others have joined us. well, this is probably a good sign because it runs out to t graham forces because the key grams are not acceptable as rulers to many in ethiopia. but the situation for the prime minister is dire. essentially, he has lost their civil if he steps. now, if we can get to a, you backed up by the us, maybe even china else area. you know, countries with real flow and tell the prime minister, you have to step down. what we need to see in ethiopia is media mediation, truth and wreck of reconciliation, perhaps a conference of religious leaders. but the only way we're going to get there is for the prime minister to step down protests in iraq against the results of last month's election, have turned violent. demonstrated cash for police and back that they're angry about the outcome of the parliamentary poll. and 1st of the boat was rig security

the last day for peaceful pros. they say that they're going to escalate because their part is lost and in the election, what they say that they're going to escalate until and unless the election commission conducts a manual recount of all the votes. on the other hand, they let the election commission says that it has conducted a manual recount of 25 percent of the vote and the results identical. they're not different from the old. there is a now the violence on friday has been condemned by official political parties across iraq. and in fact, the political cost is accusing the government forces of cracking down on the protest was the ha knob we have been attacked by right. police and other government forces there were shooting live bullets, mature gas at us. this area is very sensitive because it's very close, though, the green zone, the green zone, a very important area that has headquarters of a diplomatic missions. they had quoted of the s embassy and government offices. these protesters have been occupying this area for 3 weeks now sitting up tense and they say they will not leave this area until the election commission response to their demands. the trial of 3 white men accused of killing an unarmed black man in the u. s. states. his georgia has begun. amar to albury was shot and killed last year while jogging. but even before friday's proceedings began, there were accusations of racial bias and gac reports. ah, when a mod aubrey was killed last year, his family compared his death to a modern day lynching. now 3 white men are on trial for his murder and a case being seen as racially charged. but even before opening statements were heard controversy over the almost entirely white jury sparked accusations of racism . this court has found that there appears to be, ah, intentional or discrimination in the power. despite that statement, the judge is pressing on with this high profile case, saying there were no legitimate reasons for not selecting black jurors or whether the prior festus. some of what we've already been faith in, in this case is another part of the injustices arm that we see here in glenn county . i'm not dislike this case, but with many. so it's just another part of what we face every day. it was only after this video became public that gregory mc michael had son travis and william bryan were arrested. all 3 men claimed they were trying to make a citizen's arrest a law abolished since mister arbor his death. suspecting the 25 year old of stealing from a nearby house, the prosecution say all ahmad abra did was run away. finally tried to run around their truck as he saw on the gateway to the stranger, which re put already told him that they would come and let me go. and what aubrey's death and the subsequent killings of george floyd, brianna taylor and other african americans at the hands of law enforcement, led to a wave of national protests against accusation of racism. all 3 men of entered pleas of not guilty saying they were acting in self defense. the defense team says travis mc michael, who fired the fatal shots, was protecting himself and his father. it's tragic that a matter of re lost his life. but at that point, travis mc, michael is acting in self defense. he did not want to encounter a mot our bri physically. he was only trying to stop him for the police. or once again, race is on trial in the u. s. with an outcome that will be closely watched the time of a mod aubrey's case. georgia was just one of 4 states with no hate crime laws. that's now changed and all 3 men still face

the end of the month. the one trillion dollar infrastructure bill already passed in the senate. it includes the biggest upgrade of roads, railways, bridges into apples, hundreds of caster has more from washington. the confusing part is they're actually 2 pieces of legislation and they're both significant. there is the biff that is the infrastructure bill about one trillion dollars to upgrade america's roads, bridges, and mitigation for climate change. so significant. but then there's also that 2nd piece of legislation, which is the social welfare bill, which is potentially even bigger, it is more expensive and it has been described as the biggest expansion of the social safety net in decades in the u. s which includes universal pre k and child care credits, a climate change action including giving tax credits to people to buy for people to buy electric vehicles up to $12000.00 per family, as well as a, as well as expanding health care access. now, the democrats have been supporting the ideas behind these policies, but the problem is that some moderate democrats are bulking at the price tag because in total, these $2.00 bills combined are somewhere around 3 trillion dollars. now supporters of the bill say that that it will be paid for by increasing taxes on large corporations and on the wealthy. but those moderate democrats want to see evidence of that in reports that, that analyze exactly how much this will cause a these are, this is the wording of the legislation that has only been published for about 24 hours stella head on al jazeera. then you covered 19

roll region in costa rica, near the border was nicaragua is to day home to 70 nicaraguan farmers who had to flee their own land. they were lucky to be able to rent this farm to raise and sell pigs in order to feed their families. there among the thousands of poor nicaraguan farmers who began protesting in 2013 against president daniel ortega's plan to expropriate their land and build a multi $1000000000.00 trans atlantic canal. by doing so, they became enemies of the state, along with tens of thousands of other nicaraguans who crossed into costa rica in the last 3 years to escape reprisals for taking part in anti government protests. no miracle nicaraguans are emigrating as never before because the repression is continuing. and so does the migration to costa rica span the united states. people can't live with the psychosis, the fear that they'll be in prison, beaten, and tortured. and then there's the economic situation on record numbers of nicaraguans are leaving their country, the 2nd poorest in the americas, after hating ah, since president daniel ortega launched a new crack down against opponents. earlier this year, the number of nicaraguans attempting to reach the united states has more than quadrupled according to the u. s. customs and border patrol. but the vast majority come here to costa rica to work in the fields, like the cassette his family.

they'll be lucky if they make about $8.00 to date. yet as difficult as it is for people who work here in the countryside to make a living, it's much more difficult for the nicaraguan exiles when economic migrants who go to the capital. the la can't be a neighborhood in san jose is where many of the more than 130000 nicaraguans have asked for refugee status, are living in the majority in overcrowded dwellings. they can't afford to leave a yanna minute. unemployment soaring and costa rica and the nicaraguan migrants who work in construction or as housemaids are the 1st casualties. what i ain't got a little mess because i used to work as a main one. but since the pandemic, they don't give us work because they say they don't want any one in their homes. and they also ask for documents with their main opponents. now imprison ortega should easily win sundays presidential elections. and that said, these migrant will likely only increase the exodus from their trouble. torn country and
