Where the colleville is a spokesperson for the un high commissioner for human rights. He joins us now live from geneva. Thank you for your time, sir. This is a and her grandest report to civilians being massacred that if it is confirmed as being carried out by one of the parties to the conflict, as you know, that would constitute a war crime. How worried are you . Is the commissionaire about what were seeing right now, and were very worried indeed because you know, youre already seeing killings. The details of this latest report, you know, remain to be fully verified. But clearly there have been killings, theres been destruction, theres been displacement already. 11000 refugees have crossed into sudan. Theres a risk that this is going to spiral very rapidly out of control and become a really massive crisis. And, you know, there are many issues in integrate already. Its a very fragile situation in terms of food and 600000, people dependent on food aid already and the humanitarian agencies arent able to get to them. So we very much call on both sides to make the necessary compromises and stop, stop the conflict immediately before this really spirals out of everybodys control. Beyond calling on both sides to stop the conflicts. What more can the u. N. Can the International Community do right now . Well, timidity, the 2 parties are fighting the other ones who are in the driving seat. It has to be from there more we can do really is encourage cajole press, press them to Start Talking and stop fighting. What do you make of the pace at which this appears to have morphed from a political disagreement, dissatisfaction, discussions about federalism to really taking on an ethnic tone . What does that say to you . Well, i think that is very dangerous. I think what should we care for also a little bit about putting too much into that at this point. But there is that risk of a major aspect i mentioned coming into it. And of course that is can become really toxic and fuel the crisis that much more explosive lead. So its very important to Start Talking. Yes, there are a longstanding tensions and disagreements. These need to be dealt with through talk through talks not thrashed out on the, on the battlefield. Absolutely. Thanks so much for a time recalled there a spokesperson for the u. N. High commissioner for human rights security and Election Officials from the u. S. Government have released a statement declaring this years president ial election was the most secure in american history. They say theres no evidence that Voting Systems were compromised. Despite this president , donald trump continues to make unsubstantiated claims of widespread voter fraud. Ellen fisher reports. Its unusual for donald trump to keep such a low profile. Hes made one appearance, but hasnt spoken in public for a week. His twitter feed continues to push claims of a stolen election on thursday. He tweeted a report alleging 2700000 votes were deleted from Voting Systems across the country. The company who made the machines says that didnt happen, and a Government Election watchdog insists the election was the most secured in american history. The elections, infrastructure, government, coordinating council, and the election infrastructure sector, coordinating committees, part of the department of Homeland Security issued a joint statement and emphasized in bold type. There is no evidence that any Voting System deleted or lost votes changed votes, or was in any we compromised. One of the major contributors for making this the most secure election in u. S. History is the fact. There were large numbers with vote by mail and actual having physical paper ballots. One of Donald Trumps closest aides has reportedly been seeking out officials in various government departments, he considers insufficiently loyal to donald trump, with the intention of firing them. One of the people behind this report has told friends he expects to be called in the coming days. On capitol hill, democrats continue to urge their republican colleagues to accept the election result and get back to business when it comes to the election. Republicans, Congressional Republicans dont have the evidence. They dont have the proof, they dont have anything. Neither does the president , congress, Congressional Republicans are deliberately casting doubt on our elections for no other reason. But fear of donald trump. Ok, the biden team is pushing for access to the daily intelligence briefing. They got them during the campaign, but have been blocked since the election by a white house contesting the result. Will republican senators have expressed concern that could impact u. S. Security well stopping short of contradicting the president . Look, one of these 2 men will be the president United States after the Election Results have come in. And i think at this point, just as a matter of protecting our nations interests, i do think that both the president and his and his competition here, the Vice President biden should have access to those classified reports. President trumps legal team insists theres a process to follow that could take some time and it continues to fundraise to help the president s efforts in court. Alan fischer. Aljazeera washington. Ok we have going on are standing by for us in wilmington, delaware, but 1st. Lets go to our White House Correspondent, who is in washington d. C. At the white house coming out at the election monitors a saying that theres no evidence of widespread voter fraud. Does that mean . There are no issues at all, or is it more that theres no sort of systematic problems that would perhaps impact the result . Yeah, its really important that we look at these statements and see what exactly what theyre saying. Thats right. Donald trump has claimed that there was widespread voter fraud particular when it comes to these voting machines. And there was a glitch that potentially put 2700000 ballots that were for him in the column for joe biden. What theyre saying is there was no evidence of that, but while theyre saying this is the most secure election in history, what theyre not saying is that the election was secure, but its just better than it was last time. And certainly we know the last time that there was foreign interference. There doesnt seem to be any concern about that this time. But given the fact that this election in 2020 was different than 2016, there was the widespread use of mail in ballots due to cope at 19, there were not always outdated voter logs before these were mailed out. Some people had died, some people had moved away, but still received a ballot in some cases. Sadly, we know that some of those ballots were cast, but what this is being said is that it would in no way change the outcome of the election. We may be talking about hundreds of votes, but we know that joe biden has what now an additional state firmly making him the projected winner. There would be to have been systemic fraud systemic irregularities involving millions of votes. And there is no evidence of that to to date. Ok, thank you for breaking that down for us coming. How could there are White House Correspondent . Well, china has become one of the last major countries to congratulate president elect joe biden. U. S. Relations with beijing have been strained on trade technology and security of the trump administration. In malaysia spash, the us president has banned americans from doing business with companies owned or controlled by the chinese military. Donald trump signed an executive order that claims beijing forces. Chinese firms to help finance and modernize its military band takes effect on january 11 days before trump is due to step down. Let us speak now to gabriel. Alexander, who as i said, is in wilmington, delaware, which is joe bidens. Hometown gabe. So donald trump has as banned americans from doing business with companies that are owned by the chinese military. How much of an impact will that have and is joe biden might feed to try and overturn it. Well, its unclear, quite frankly, because its important to point out that joe biden has not released yet any detailed policy proposals on how he plans to deal with china once he becomes president on january 20th. So its a little unclear on what joe biden stance will be, or if he would try to overturn that, as you just mentioned, quite frankly, now we havent heard from joe biden, any sort of response from him or his Transition Team over this news that trying to china has congratulated him, joe biden, and is taking on today and tomorrow off, basically resting at his home and be charm here. Not too far from here. But the bottom line is, this is that it is expected that the Biden Administration will change the policy from what its been under President Trump under president donald trump. The u. S. Policy towards china is very much taken on a unilateral approach, a hard line when it comes to trade and tariffs, but trump has always said that his personal relationship with president xi could overcome anything. This is expected to change under a president biden, and all you have to do is look back to his last 8 years that he served as Vice President to president obama. Currently a lot of bidens, formal and informal it by users when it comes to foreign policy. In china are people that served under the obama and biden, in ministration for 8 years. So what you can expect is a couple things, a more multilateral approach to china, number one, and also more of an approach Holding Things such as democracy and human rights on the same level as trade and economic issues. That would be something that would be a little different than whats been the u. S. Policy, the last 4 years. Lastly, 0 point out there could be some points of cooperation between biden presidency with china. And that could come down to 2 things. Number one, Climate Change biden has said that is very much at the top of his list of priorities to deal with. And you cant deal with Climate Change without engaging china. And the 2nd one is new, that could be the global coronavirus pandemic. You have pharmaceutical companies in the United States as yours, pfizer, that have already announced a potential vaccine. You have multiple pharmaceutical companies in china working on vaccines. This could be a point where the 2 leaders and the 2 countries could come together on some sort of cooperation on dealing with the global pandemic. Of course, well just have to wait and see on that. But the bottom line is you can expect u. S. Policy in relations with china to pivot to a more multilateral approach. Once biden becomes president. Ok, thank you so much for that. Gabriel is under there live for us, and wilmington, delaware more ahead on the news. Our, including a warning for people making Holiday Plans at 19 cases continue to spike in many European Countries. Is a military operation in Western Sahara. Could this be the end of a nearly 3 decade long cease fire . And in sports, a goal of the year contend arrives from denmark.
