It comes down to 2 cases that have been filed by the 4 countries against qatar it deals with a Chicago Convention from 944 but also an air Services Transit agreement also signed in 1944 those agreements deal with the same issue which is a freedom of movement between countries in air space so qatar has filed this case at the i counsel and the countries have appealed against this for a tick now the president has explained at length that the Chicago Convention signed by most nations in the world that this is a very right convention to use that it deals exactly with this issue that qatar is dealing with now because the 4 countries have said it wasnt the case they said this isnt a security issue dealing with terrorism it has nothing to do with the asian so the president has made made clear that it has to do with. Also another appeal a part of the appeal was about the negotiations the countries had q scott of not doing enough to to to come to a diplomatic settlement before taking the case to the i. K. O.

A. E. Are a clear violation of International Law dr Mohamed Al Khalifa he is an agent of the state of qatar before the International Court of justice here outlined the various next steps that qatar could take. This is a very important flawless victory for the state of qatar before the International Court of Justice Convention has clearly illustrated that if a decision was made by the council of the i q then the Member States that are concerns with that decision must follow precisely that decision and if they did not then it is the authority or the rights of the state that has been affected by that decision is to raise that matter again to the council and there are certain sanctions that the council me grant the state of qatar for example not allowing the Member States to vote in the General Council or even to certain extent supporters of pete in certain important meetings and that will have its own. Harsh side effect on those states but definitely in all cases any decision that has been made or will be made by the i kill as a council then its allowed and permitted to be appealed in front of the. Lets assume for example the decision in the future was not in favor of the seat of art as a sumption then the state of qatar is allowed according to article it is for to appeal the decision of front of the i. C. J. Where the i. C. C. Has the strong in a binding to enforce ability of their decision in the future so in all cases cop out has clearly assist the situation in front of it and believe strongly that the i. Q. As a council is the 1st step right now to resolve that Civil Aviation dispute. The u. K. Has banned the purchase of a new 5 g. Corvette from the chinese telecoms giant holloway from december 31st has called the decision disappointing and politicized by mr baez johnsons been under pressure from within his own party and the u. S. But says the company is a Security Risk and a barber has more from london. With this is a major change in direction for britain because in january the Prime Minister Boris Johnson said that although huawei was a high risk vendor would be allowed to take a 35 percent stake in the countrys 5 g. Network for just the periphery since then theres been a lot of political lobbying from the American Government also from members of parliament belonging to Boris Johnsons own conservative party worried about chinese human rights issues but also there have been new american sanctions and britains digital minister announcing the new step stressed that it was those sanctions affecting american microchips which have been using while way kit which make all the difference in the u. K. Can no longer be confident it will be able to guarantee the security a future 5 to one way 5 to equipment affected by the change in us foreign direct product rules the best way to secure our networks is for operators to stop using new affected one way to equipment to build the u. K. s future 5 Networks Said to be clear from the end of this year Telecoms Operators must not buy any 5 equipment from while away and once the Telecom Security bill is passed it will be illegal for them to do so with this new deadline for mobile phone companies to take out all hallway 5 g. Equipment by 2027 is good news for them they were worried that if they had to do that more quickly that could create outages theyre already saying that the changes are going to cost them hundreds of millions of dollars if not billions. Of dollars it might not be good news for those dozens of rebel conservative politicians who could still try to derail forthcoming legislation on British Telecommunications the huawei itself has reacted by saying that its bad news for anyone in the u. K. With a mobile phone saying that it will deepen a Digital Divide in suggesting that this is all to do with american politics well on the political front it could lead to other countries particularly around europe looking at britain and perhaps following suit getting tougher on huawei along the lines of what the u. S. And canada and australia have already done in our White House Correspondent Kimberly Hawkins joining us now from washington d. C. Kimberly relations between the u. S. And china already very poor as the trumpet ministration going to be reacting to this. Well we already know that news of the british ban has been one of the white house has embraced this is something that it has been pushing for for its International Partners to join in its concerns about wall way and the actions its taken we know as recently as yesterday the u. S. President was in conversation with the canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau where they again discussed according to the readout chinas deceptive and coercive behavior we also know that the National Security advisor along with his deputy in europe for 3 days of meetings with the u. K. France germany italy and one of the key components of their discussions is the concern surrounding walk away now in a very divided United States i should point out that this is one issue where both democrats and republicans seem to be unified on in fact as far back as february the House Speaker democrat nancy pelosi talked about while way warning u. S. Allies saying that it gauges it builds this 5 g. Network with one of the most insidious forms of aggression by an autocratic government that doesnt share u. S. Values the concern of u. S. Lawmakers as well as the trumpet ministration is that this is really just an opportunity to engage in backdoor espionage and already the United States accuses china of practicing what they say is a decades long sort of pattern of theft of u. S. Secrets now we should point out that here in the United States there has already been strict action taken by the Justice Department towards while way it did in fact put in place charges of racketeering in those charges accused the Chinese Government of assisting as far back as 2009 iran in surveillance on peaceful demonstrators so there is a long list of concerns when it comes to walk away and certainly the white house at this hour welcoming what it sees as gaining traction in terms of taking action towards while way is now. Now we know that this Trip Administration also i possible further actions even following some countries around the world that have already looked into banning tick tock and the application known as we chat which they again believe is being used for surveillance purposes its Kimberly Hauck at the White House Committee thank you. China is accusing the United States of trying to stir up trouble in the South China Sea thats up to secretary of state my pump aoe said beijings claims for the region are completely unlawful china claims always the entire area but thats disputed by several other Southeast Asian countries when he reports from bangkok.

Not only is there Strategic Value in the South China Sea but its one of the worlds busiest shipping lanes and is believed to hold large exploitable Natural Resources china has continued to develop parts of the region largely unopposed militarily while the u. S.
