elected president buses. and the crew leader general gianni delivered a message of his own after meeting an echo last delegation in the capital in the greenville plaza. neither the national council for the safe guard of the homeland, nor the people of new york war, and remain open to dialogue. but let us be clear, if an attack were to be under taken against us, it will not be the welcome to park. some people seem to think the costs delegation also met with president, but assume he's being held with little access to food or electricity. his health is reportedly deteriorating. we met him, we heard from him what was done to him. she told us about the problems he's facing, that people take the leaders that sent us here. the june to accuse him of treason for acting in the interest of a foreign state, alluding to france, the former colonial power, the tempe, didn't have a need to meet them all the wheel tact militarily,
2:03 pm
is to stop what could be seen as a contagion of cruise. there's been cruise in guinea, burkina faso, and molly countries who carry the echo last mandate like center goal and ivory coast, want to stop this. but these dates are seen as to close to france. the former colonial power for part of the population echo was seen as the armed branch of the former colonial power. the gentle leaders in neighboring molly in burkina faso have sent their military plains in solidarity to new shares coordinator general gianni. and his supporters seemed to be determined to cling onto power new matter. the consequences. nicholas hoped. alger 0. all right, we're going to get more now on the story from i did raise his live for us and then i during capital a boucher alright talk to was a little bit about general chinese address. what did you make of it? kimberly the dominant team of general the chinese address as being the sanctions,
2:04 pm
an indication that the sanctions and post by our courses biting. and he talked about how cool and insensitive besides this have been. and basically you said the such as have chopped off our supplies, food and medicines to the poor and also talked about electricity that we spoke about the transition program, city a transition program. it's not clear how civil society and the positions work. take it, most of the support for the crew is coming from the opposition. uh, based mainly in the capital. yeah, man, that's the main boss to know if they will position. is your politics for the last 10 years. so it remains to be seen whether or not they will take longer transition . oh, they will not. but again, what will determine, what if this will go down well with them is how fast he's able to resolve the shortages we see in the electricity, water supply and even the sellers have not been paid complete and maybe
2:05 pm
a promising sign, correct me if i'm wrong, the fact that general johnny met with a delegation that he had previously turned away, is that correct? and this could potentially signal a breakthrough in the tensions a exactly, it could be a break. so some, i'm going to see this as a breakthrough. but again, it's unclear at the moment how that costs, where is phone costs for the transition program, or seen this play out in monday, and brooke, in a fossil and those leaders are still in power. and there is no specific time table that the equity could say, would let. this would be the, it would be kept by the minister who lives in those countries. so pretty a transition program is an invitation that they're willing to go probably negotiate . but because we also wanted to keep pressing moment by them out of the heads of the many field soldiers i but the minute trips or just image of a holding by them as a bargaining chip, whether they really seem or not. what probably the next few days or a few weeks will determine what, what does that going to happen?

2:07 pm
if an action to the face of attacks and blaming it for the deteriorating security situation. the head of the mission disagrees. let me show the money actually and how i feel the mission did a very good job, of course is not perfect, but we worked with devotion, sincerity, and coverage. and we paid a high cost. 300 and my colleagues have lost their lives and 700 were injured saving molly? so we feel we have done a lot not enough says june to leader a seem equally to. he believes the country is better off without the international peace keeping force. but with the help of russian mercenaries from the wagner group, human rights organizations accused molly and soldiers and russian fighters of war crimes, including rape, torture, and the killing of civilians, their men to protect. number yeah, lot of mean by the, in the body and state and the body and we will try to take over those you in positions which appears to make sense. but given the context and the solar piece of process,
