muddy guinea burkina faso had done, but not chad. some analysts worn. the double standards could hop dire consequences . there is a break down into official contract between the government and the people. the governments are not delivering for the people, but the benefits of economic growth a going to those who are ready to reach on the poor, continue to the poor on the marginalized, continue to be marginalized with many african nations facing mid to security threats. relentless humanitarian disasters and millions of young people with no prospects producing the number of crimes might be a total the for the after communion. okay, more with mohammed is are now in ada sap about mohammed. i want to talk about the, the host country. ethiopia. it is hard if not impossible, to ignore the fact that there has been a conflict going on there since 2020, which has killed thousands of people. how's it being addressed?

well yes, come all that is one of the issues the african leaders govern here are discussing and the main thrust of their discussions is how to bring the parties in the conflict in that guy region of law. funny, if you appear to around people for talks, there is a mess if humanity and crisis unfolding as was picking that guy ridge and un agencies say they have very little access to the people who number almost 2000000 people who are living in farming like conditions and many people feel that it's very urgent for them to be peace talks between the government and that the guy defense forces now call themselves deprived minutes diabetes speech. and during the opening session of africa, summit committed his government to talk something that will come as a relief to most if your parents and also a countries in the neighborhood. that's the horn of africa bridge. and this is what you had to say. our commitment to st,

cost of taking both rooms that have been deleted or solved by government themselves, from the devils, and taking them as to the people who need them most. that is where the disconnect ease and that's what african need us trying to look into right now. with some of them calling for agend funding for vinnish and operations across africa. only 2 countries see shelf and malicious have attained the 70 percent fixation protocol that has been announced by the wild help organization. thank you, mom and keeping us close developments in the african union. somebody's in a south of the united states is waving sanctions on iran. civilian nuclear program, as talks to save the 2015 agreement reach a critical stage. donald trump ended the way the 2 years ago when he was president to her almost as it once guarantees from washington for the revival of the

when it comes to the where the cation, the said that they can give some of the guarantees. so in this sense, the partial removal of the sanctions from the usa is quite a practical to tap and it is welcomed in, in, in, in the u. s. a store for that hasn't been direct was between the iranians and the americans. and the for 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 cool a paved way for data tours between americans and iranians. while rescue teams in morocco. so they are getting closer to reaching that young boy who fell down at 30 to meet a well he's been trump since tuesday cruise. say they are less than 2 meters from him. now he's the live pictures, in fact, coming in as the team digs out, part of a hill side, a delicate dangerous operation to reach that 5 year old boy. there's revolt from
