The South China Sea and peace and stability across the taiwan straits. The little m. Terry martin, thanks for joining us. Amnesty international has said the world is nearing is seeing a near breakdown of international law. Its sites multiple conflicts and the rise of Artificial Intelligence as the main threats. The annual reports on human rights singles out is real and its and allies for quote, multiple violations committed and gone. So it also says china and russia are demonstrating a willingness to destroy the rules based order. Your organization said there has been a betrayal of human rights principles by todays leaders and institutions. And obviously, International Secretary general condemned what she called the color, the punishment to palestinians in johnson. The level of value that we have money to is unprecedented. We have seen that in a guess over the last 6 months, weve done extraordinary number of victims within the civilian population. We use the use of funding as a width and the waves of collective punishment imposed on funded students the largest number of jonah these keels, the largest number of you might need tell you elect us, killed a very unprecedented come to see billions ever re quote. So these violations on not only extremely serious, they all so just to fire. So hes rileys just to find out all of those violations and the United States on team very recently. As going with more in this, im joined now by our special correspondent, a abraham. An anesthesia report puts a spotlight on israels war in gauze. It also draws attention to the october 7th terrorist attacks by how mos on israel that triggered the war and the city is again urging the International Criminal court to take on and investigate. Alleged Human Rights Violations is all this likely to have any impact or the likely to be consequences of this . Well, thats exactly the point of this report rate is that in the space of all of these violations or alleged violations, there hasnt really been consequences. And certainly the report highlights of the situation and gaza, israels war and gaza. But also it talks about ukraine and china and other world of powers. And what the report says is that because there have not been consequences, were risking the collapse of the post 1948 world of order. The values that had been declared universal back then and the belief that the a work for everybody and that they work for everybody equally. Thats whats at stake in addition, of course, to the lives and livelihoods of the thousands, if not millions of innocence whose rights are being violated every day, without consequences. According to the report, i looked at the report just the top of it is to suggest that the world is indeed regressing, in terms of human rights in the world. I just want a quick question about germany. Its also a single doubt in this report. What, why is it criticized . Well, germany is one of the most, is the staunchest, if not the strongest ally and supporter of israel in this war and with the german government, we should specified that this is the german governments position. Historically has been, is that the germany has a special responsibility towards the jewish people because of the crimes of the holocaust. And the that translates into support for the state of a israel and germany, which had you forged an image of itself post 2nd world war as a country that uphold human rights is now being accused of double standards of not being harsh enough and critical enough towards its allies, israel, as it commits Human Rights Violations in gods. And weve seen german leaders visit israel. The United States american leaders have done the same, declare time and time again, their support up for israel and the war despite there being some very serious allegations of war crimes and a legit genocide, a being a choose a israel is now being a choose of an electorate agenda site as well, and german support has been pretty strong throughout. This is a big report. It covers a 155. 00 countries. What are your main takeaways . So of course, theres the, you know, theres the overarching theme that powers, not just the United States, but also russia because of the war in ukraine and china. Because because the violations against riggers, and should during the these 3 powers because of their veto power in the, in the Un Security Council buried the ones that are sort of accelerating this defense towards a world where she universe are human rights. Seem to be a meaningless and its really, its almost invites, are we thinking of that world order and whether or not these 3 super power should have as much power as they do to really dictate, you know, accountability questions of accountability. So the report looks at major powers that looked at individual conflicts, but it also looks at developments in terms of technology. It talks a lot about Artificial Intelligence. What does it say about that . Well, the report definitely points the finger to big tech. At the lack of regulation for Artificial Intelligence, and the way the technology could be abused, tech, so rate, a violations of human rights on one hand that says we are regressing, were going back to a pre 1948 world. At the same time, were sort of also racing towards this future with a and with the rise of this new technology but so far that its not been uh regulated. So its a weird time work. We seem to be finding ourselves and, and thank you very much. That was our special correspond abraham germany wilson resume is cooperation with were off the United Nations relief and works agency for Palestinian Refugees in gaza. This follows an investigation into it stuff which led several countries to temporarily hold funding. Israel has accused thousands of the agencies employees of being involved in the october 7th terror attacks, or the doesnt donors, including the 2 largest ones, the us in germany suspended their own wrong funding. The reason the investigation says, israel has not yet provided evidence that certain want employees were members of terrorist organizations. In the weeks following a mazda is terror attack on is real on october 7th, last year. Is really authorities cracked down on protests criticizing these really military response, palestinian citizens were arrested for participating and protest or posting on social media. Dw special corresponded on the use a met with human rights lawyer of med khalifa, who was himself arrested at a protest and charged with incitement to terrorism. In a small apartment in haifa, lawyer and activist off mont khalifa as under house arrest. After spending 114. 00 days in prison, its an improvement. But felicia says hes still essentially a prisoner. That is onto the best that you can see. Exactly. So if he steps outside the apartment with this electronic tag, the police will be alerted, theyll call him on this communication device. And if he doesnt answer, he could be held in violation and sent back to prison. But the worst part for khalifa is that the Court Ordered him to rent an apartment outside of his hometown where his children live and go to school. They can only come to visit on School Holidays like today. The only thing that we did is going uh, doing this demonstration, the price to support of the people for guys that the under twitter and days or for heavy bonding on october 19th, last year at least helped lead a protest. And he is really town of mount farm where hes from the chanted slogans in support of gaza. He says not from us. A video from that day shows him urging the crowd to remain civil the economy. Without the soon after it began, heavily armed police intervened and started arresting people elisa was one of those arrested. They wanted to teach the other people listen by us. Thats why our artist was so so crude khalifa was charged with incitement to terrorism and spent 3 and a half months and the ghetto and gilbert of prisons where he alleges he was deprived of sleep and food and was beaten by guards as a lawyer who has defended posting and prisoners, the experience was eye opening. I used to think that when they say the physical torture, the people exact so exaggerated because they want to get thousands of homes and you know, but the, the stuff that we saw this is amazing. Like its the whole i didnt hold on for the, for the claims that in the weeks after the october 7th come off, terror attacks, israels Justice System abandoned the rule of law. Its like if youre not with us, youre against us. That is, thats the thing. And they said that to me clearly in my investigation and its things that make you think, again about everything that you know about the whole system. You know, in one night that there was no, no, no police know sort of fees and everything changed. I put her leave his claims to his really authorities, the Israel Prison Service sent me this response. We are not aware of the claims you described, nonetheless, prisoners and detainees have the right to file a complaint that will be fully examined and addressed by official authorities. The Israel Police wrote the individual in question, participated in an unauthorized marge, characterized by incitement, where he assumed a leadership role. The Israel Police will continue working diligently to protect our citizens and will not tolerate individuals endangering Public Safety through incitement of violence or support of terror. Felicia is hopeful that the is really, courts will acquit him once Legal Proceedings wrap up his life will eventually return to normal. He says, but his face and the Justice System has been shaken to the core. Take a look at a few other stories making headlines around the world today. Student protest against the war and gaza has spread to universities across the United States, several colleges have closed their campuses. Some universities called in police to break up protest camps. Hundreds had been arrested since last week and the business traders here, the citizens could stoke anti semitism, but the students say theyre defending free speech. Lawmakers in the us center to pass the crucial 61000000000. 00 a package for ukraine. After months of delay, the bill had broad bipartisan support was 79. 00 votes in favor to 18 against the senate also approved aid for israel and taiwan president by them promised to sign the legislation on wednesday. Are included in the package of measures passed by the set. It is a bill to bend the social media platform tech talk. If its chinese owner does not sell it to us assets. The bill would give, took talks owner by dance up to a year to sell the assets to the Us Government approved by or if the gas Company Fails to do so. The app will be bout us. Lawmakers have been concerned about possible Chinese Government control of tick tock, fearing Security Risk by dance has denied that it shares sensitive user data with the Chinese Government take talk has about a 170000000 users in us as tensions similar between the us and china, us secretary state antony blinking is heading to shanghai, whos expected to discuss a number of unresolved issues, including trying to support for russia us is trying to is helping rushes more effort in ukraine, adding that it damages us security. How to put limits on our relationship without limits. One is for the emission division. You a secretary of state anthony, blinking will have to put some distance between russia and china. Pushing back on china as well in russias war machine will be a priority. China continues to provide materials to support precious defense, industrial base, and all of this is fueling pollutants, warm machine se attacks ukrainians and threatens european security. See, relations between the worlds top, 2 global rivals had been 10 since early last year after a chinese bible and flew across the us territory. And for us disputes relating to cell from taiwan. Since then, they have thought a little shooting thing held face to face talks with us President Joe Biden in San Francisco last november. But the u. S. Has kept pressure on beijing, sanctioning chinese firms that ship products to russia. And then really new micro chip export restrictions. The Us State Department says china is supporting rushes war machine by supplying machine tools, computer chips, optics, drones, and Cruise Missile technology. Russia semiconductor imports from china jump from 200000000 in 2021 to over 500000000 in 2022. As the war drags on russias drawing, economic and diplomatic isolation has made its increasing the reliance on china, its former rival for leadership of the communist bloc. During the cold war, china appears to hold the upper hand into the relationship. Washington warns it will hold being responsible at moscow mix gains in ukraine. China, shots of criticism insisting its a neutral party. Dont tell you what china has always controlled. Council would have to use items and nicole, the in regulations, the relevant countries struggle. Its me or into the back of what i know the status of the relations between china and russians. Engines ratcheted up again last week after joe biden called for hire terrace on shining steel and aluminum. Lincoln has his work cut out for him. A blankets visit comes out a particularly tense time between china, the us probably, and customer in beijing told me what the 2 countries need to discuss most urgently or yeah, the list is really very long. So from the chinese perspective, im the priority method is that it does not tolerate any interference in what aging perceives as the red lines or the call national, the interest and those spend from taiwan over to seems young and hong kong. So china wants to make clear that it doesnt want that us to into feet and those issues and, and also it one. So of course, getting rid of the tech sanctions and the export control that the u. S. Has imposed on a china according to the head of stage seating ping. Those are in post to contain the economic rise of china. And certainly also china is wanting to get the rate of the ad us influence in the basic in the south, tennessee. So it says that its into fi, us with china, us relations and asi, im country, so the se agents via and from the us side, i would say the key of the most urgent topic is the ones ukraine. Russians, one ukraine, the accusations that the u. S. Government has against china, theyre pretty concrete and pretty massive. So it says that 70 percent of our rushes, imports of machine towards come from china and those inputs, every very crucial when it comes to building up and put into a ballistic arsenault. And that is, of course, the strongest ation and it also says that, you know, um add to economic coordination. The truth relation between the 2 countries is im so blinking, but also talk about industrial policy of china and the resulting over capacities which has become an increasing problem for this now to ukraine and the governor of their countrys 2nd largest city hotties says at least 6 people been injured in russia as latest missile attack. Buildings and cars have been damaged, as well as the gas pipeline in the center of the city and the mayor, the har keith now said, the 2 long range missiles were used in the attack. He added that the city is trying to restore the gas supply to the affected area, which are lowest clinic. And its been more than 2 years now since russia lost its full scale invasion of ukraine since then, hundreds of thousands of ukrainian man had been called up to serve in the military. Many have not returned. We spoke to one mother who is coming to terms with her own loss. Natalie, as that nick had 3 sons when russia launched its full scale invasion of ukraine. This is my son who says my youngest son. Last summer, natalia buried her youngest or lexi. He served in some of the bloodiest bottles of the will lower to my level. My youngest was installed to die after solar da who was inbox moved up to box moved to his in has on the phone.
