The protesters response to the killing of george floyd and and then when the federal troops arrived without warning and without invitation.

Now west African Leaders are holding a Virtual Summit as they attempt to end a deepening political crisis in mali the meeting follows serves these talks between president s from the regional bloc echo us and mollies government and opposition in bomb a call well lets take a look at some of the reasons behind the unrest in mali tens of thousands of people have been protesting there for 6 weeks demanding president ybor aim boubacar k. To steps down the protests are led by the m 5 movement of opposition activists they accuse president kaita of corruption mishandling the economy and failing to improve security the regional body ecowas sent mediators last week but m 5 has rejected its proposal to form a unity government nicholas haq has more from a car in neighboring senegal.

The olympics i think it was inevitable that sooner or later we get another bit coming along and of course youve got to keep in mind that cattle will have the infrastructure in place and were looking for a legacy from the hosting of the world cup in 2022 what weve always got to consider is these these are going to be Olympic Games post cove 8 and we already know where 2028 will be we dont know whether some or 22032. 00 games will be and given that this is post code with a slightly to be a big emphasis on cost efficiency so using countries using event using venues that already exists or not to impose a cost pressure and so i think in those terms katz aris is already ideally placed to be able to bid for the whole sing rights its very much like the world cup in many respects because obviously with the world cup was was positioned to branded as a as the regional tournament it wasnt just for the middle east it was also for north africa as well my view would be if katter is going to bid again it would be a very shrewd and also very appropriate position to have which is this isnt just belong to her it isnt just belong to cats are it belongs to the gulf region to the middle east and possibly to north africa as well.
