Sweden where a rare Court Victory for the indigenous and so many people against the swedish state has led to a series of revenge attacks with a ring to. The end thank you very much for joining as the 5 year long fight for control of yemen has taken a new turn Southern Separatists have declared a state of emergency and autonomous rule the Southern Transitional councils main base is of course city of aden and its backed by the United Arab Emirates the u. A. E. Has been part of a military coalition with saudi arabia fighting who the rebels in support of the government lets take a closer look at the Southern Transitional council when the whole thiis began seizing major cities in 2015 a Southern Separatist joined Government Forces and the saudi Iraqi Coalition to fight them the u. S. Funded the southern fighters to help retake the city of aden the internationally recognized government was rain stoled there but yemens president accused the governor of aden of being disloyal and fired him that resulted in mass protests and the formation of the Southern Transitional council which event. Called for reestablishing an independent Southern State fighting broke out between saudi backed Government Forces and the back 7 movement both parties however signed a power sharing agreement last november in riyadh yemens foreign minister says this agreement is now being violated by the declaration of south governments or lets speak to. A man who is the representative of the Southern Transitional council in new york he joins us via skype thank you very much for being with us on aljazeera let me just begin by asking you 1st why now why has the Southern Transitional council declared an autonomy his rule autonomy rule and also a state of emergency now at this particular moment. Well i mean well thank you for having me 1st and foremost and this is not a an event that just sprung out of nowhere this is actually a pileup. Mis management misgovernance in especially in south yemen south yemen has been less for going on 3 years 4 years now. Unfortunately things have deteriorated as far as the humanitarian wise the situation as far as basic services are not. Minimal or basic services are not being delivered. And little to no services at all this is not something that just happened but the prices have been still recent that sparked it. Was the 1st of all call with 19 played a role in as far as a health risk that the government needs to take better precautions there has to be a very strong governance over there that has to be. We have to be able to deliver or to even. Withstand something of that. Big of a tragedy and the recent flash floods also that happened in aid in that war not met with any type of aid any delivering of services the past few days theres been a complete shutdown of Electricity Water Services and sewage and these this is all a pileup so youre saying that it has risen on the parents of. One tree an accumulation of recent events including the covert 1000 crosses in all of course the ongoing war is what meds the s. T. C. To make the 2nd ration let me ask you the whether you have enough Political Support from all the governorates in the in the south of yemen to go through with this because were already hearing reports that the governor of how donald has rejected this declaration. Well see the the the c. C. Gets gains its legitimacy from the people and now the people of south yemen the vast majority of them are backing up. This type of. Stand for the s. T. C. They are they are tired of the. Tug of war between the legitimate government was not was very it was dysfunctional the institutions are diluted the institutions are not well working at all for the sake of the civilians and there theyre looking forward to something such as this. Stand by the s. T. C. To for at least a time to miss state for them to completely take over to actually govern. Properly these institutions and deliver Better Services to the people i dont know if our governors are not are not supporting this idea even if the people as you say and the people want rule i mean how is this going to be achieved when the Political Support isnt there. So that there is there is you can say. Far as the Political Support these are governor governor but its there are chosen by the. By the legitimate government are not necessarily by the backing of by the blessings of the people now the people have been tired of these governorates themselves now the i. C. C. Has also said we want we want all of the governor governor its to continue their. Their jobs to work vigorously towards bringing or aiding the people fortunately there are some some want to use the situation. For a political gain while while the s. T. C. Is looking to ease the suffering of the people all right al qaida sentiment in its statement the s. T. C. Maids a number of accusations against the Saudi Led Coalition which is fighting against the whole thing in yemen but the enemy iraqis the main backers of the s. T. C. Are also part of this coalition so i was just curious to know what they make of this decision by the s. T. C. To assume control of the southern areas are they fully behind you so. In the end its tedious to see is stands by the people and it will do whatever it needs to do to protect you havent responded much my my my question is whether youre getting support from the iraqis right so. Whether theyre supporting they have been supporting the fight on terrorism theyve been supporting the fights on the iranian backed through these and this is these are not just southern issues these are regional in its traditional 2060 the d. M. Iraqis have provided military and financial backing to the security around the s. E. C. Dominated by military group which you know is part of the s. T. C. Again i just want to know whether the iraqis are back this idea of self rule in the south. So and again the m. R. I. Teams have been supporting not just the Security Belt but many fronts far as the battle on the iranian backed these and the. And the terrorism in the area with these are regional and International Issues but these calls have not been since 2016 i mean as much as. Many people or many even broadcasting channels want to paint this s. T. C. As a. As a project for the u. S. For u. A. E. Or u. A. E. Project but it isnt these are cause they have been there for over 2 decades you know the head has been there for a long time calling for independence theyve been also marginalized theyve been you know trust throughout the entire. Force unity or you could say occupation the peace corps have always been there these are not this is not and. The homes were independent it had been and my question is what i want to know is whether the u. S. Is backing currently those costs for independence. Well the u. A. E. Is backing those who are going to fight the internal the iranian backed with these as well as terrorism which is a regional and International Security issue and that is actually a very you know a good stand by the by the u. A. E. And the not this is all this is a so. You know selfdetermination humanitarian right ok so lets lets not i want to i do not even if you my question to the p. C. C. Or the or the you know coalition in order to get this this is this is something that they are going to fight for whether the coalition gives their blessing for it or not because in the end the s. T. C. Will hold has its priorities these regional priorities the security measures but that the fears that but the action whether well whether they get the military support on that front from the u. A. E. Could make a difference lets just move on and let me ask you about the riyadh agreement where does this leave the riyadh agreement signed with the government and is yes you see not concerned that this will lead to even mo bloodshed in yemen at a time really when the country doesnt need it. Well of course yes this is a concern now the f. C. C. Has been doing everything it can in their power to implement the reality. We are calling on all fronts for deescalation especially with this and demick outbreak worldwide and them in outbreak we are definitely hearing to all the security generals calls the the special envoys calling for a deescalation and fighting drought yemen in general unfortunately the legitimate government has not been. Applying or implementing the riyadh agreement and any form whatsoever the the s. T. C. Has you know it has. To sell its aided. Detainees exchanges it has allowed the Prime Minister to return tied down to deliver basic services it has done its part far as you know implementing the agreement and the real the agreement is a whole and the legitimate government wants to pick. Parts of it and implement the ones that are to its favor without actually delivering anything for the people and of the people are fed up theyre not going theyre not going to you know sit around and even allow theyre not going to allow the with the legitimate government to continue this way or the s. T. C. Or even the the coalition right so thats why the f. C. C. Is right now compelled to say theyve got to take action into their own hands while still calling for a cease fire calling for deescalation in all fronts we want things to go smoothly or things we want to be able to deliver aid service is going to be able to battle this and them it ok i dont know if theyre enjoying it and you want to be able to contain the situation as as most of us thank you so much for speaking to us and taking the time to answer our questions on the name on representative of the 7 Transitional Council yemens as 7 Transitional Council joining us there from new york thank you for your time. And otherworldly a speculation is growing about the health and whereabouts of north koreas leader who hasnt been seen in public for 2 weeks now satellite Images Released by Monitoring Group suggest on may have traveled to his beach resort the Reuters News Agency says china has sent a team of doctors to save him after the hot procedure rumors of a kims health have been swelling since he failed to appear at an event marking is a crown fathers birthday on april 15th jim walsh is a Senior Research associate at the Security Studies program at Massachusetts Institute of technology he says a speculation is part of a familiar pot we played this game before with him and with previous leaders where weve said oh hes disappeared for 2 weeks hes disappeared 2 or 3 weeks you know it does that mean he might die similarly with the Supreme Leader in iran durbin numerous rumors about imminent demise that never came true you know its a pandemic right in north korea where does north korea live right next to that country where the corona virus originated now north koreas you know it has any cases i find it hard to believe im not saying he would. Have contracted it obviously Boris Johnson did so you know a do we have a smoking gun here that something is a raw you know because of the focus on covered 9000. 00 which is totally appropriate and all the things that means we havent been thinking about north korea but it north korea if the leader darrius in a context in which theres a Global Pandemic its under sanctions and entering a recession is joining an economy declines thats a big deal and we might want to think about that before it happens rather than after it happens. They call on a virus crisis now and the World Health Organization has warned there is no evidence that people who recover from call that 1000 are any until the infection several countries including the u. K. Are considering issuing immunity passes to the patients have recovered but the w. H. O. Says that could be risky from london really challenge house for the u. K. Is one of many countries that has been looking at the idea of immunity passports this would be a way for people or some people at least to go back to work if they could prove that they already have had covert 19 and therefore its assumed that they have an immunity i would be able to get it again or pass it on parts the w. H. O. The World Health Organization is not keen on this idea for this reason well we do certainly understand the intention of trying to see who can go safely back to work who be of ranch. Risk free. Other people but unfortunately from the scientific point of view we simply dont know for a person who has been infected with. 90. 2. Gets this immunity and if it gets the immunity how long this immunity is lasting now there are always problems with the immunity passport idea to start with for one thing its very divisive if you have some people who are allowed to go back to work and some people arent at a time when most governments ratchet trying to unify their populations and say were all in this together but this verdict from the w. H. O. That people dont necessarily have immunity anyway and also saying that the testing to prove this or not is a bit sketchy at the moment to the best well i think that kills the immunity passport idea for the moment at least until the science can suggest otherwise.
