00:04This program was made possible by the French Embassy in the Middle East.
00:16Hello everyone, thank you for joining us for this edition of Media Morning.
00:20Here are the headlines.
00:23In the Middle East, Israel threatens to expand its offensive in Gaza
00:28if the last hostages detained in the Palestinian territory are not released.
00:36In the South Sudan, President Salva Kiir's forces
00:40arrested this Wednesday the first vice-president, Riek Machar.
00:44The UN warns of the risk of seeing the country fall back into a generalized conflict.
00:53In Niger, authorities are investigating the implementation of the National Assistance Resolutions
00:58held in February.
01:00This Wednesday, General Abdelrahman Tihani was appointed President of the Republic
01:06for a five-year transition mandate, a period of governance
01:09that required the promulgation of the refoundation charter.
01:13Before we go into the headlines, we begin this edition with this announcement
01:25from the Ministry of the Royal House, the Protocol and the Chancellery.
01:29His Majesty King Mohammed VI Amir al-Mu'minin will preside over a religious vigil
01:34in commemoration of Laylat al-Qadr tonight at the Royal Palace in Rabat.
01:39Given certain constraints and difficulties related to certain movements
01:44and consecutive positions in the surgical operation he had undergone
01:49on the left shoulder, the sovereign will perform the prayer of al-Hijjah
01:53and the tarawih in a seated position.
01:56The religious vigil will be broadcast live on radio and television
02:01at the time of the prayer of al-Hijjah.
02:06In the Middle East, Israel threatened Wednesday to seize new sectors of the Gaza Strip
02:14if Hamas did not release the last hostages held in the Palestinian territory
02:20where the army resumed its offensive on 18 March.
02:24The Israeli army announced yesterday that two projectiles had been fired from the Gaza Strip.
02:28One intercepted, the other fell in the south of the country.
02:32The army will soon carry out operations with maximum force on new areas of Gaza.
02:39This is what the Minister of Defense, Yisrael Katz, said in a video addressing the inhabitants of the territory.
02:47The spokesman for the Israeli army, Avichai Adraei, then issued evacuation warnings
02:53for the inhabitants of several neighborhoods in the city of Gaza and its surroundings.
03:03Hamas outside, a slogan against the Palestinian movement
03:07sounded yesterday at a gathering of a hundred people in Gaza.
03:14A rare public demonstration against Hamas,
03:17calling on the movement to end the war and leave the Gaza Strip.
03:22In Israel, thousands of Israelis have also participated in anti-Netanyahu demonstrations for several days.
03:30Hamas outside, a slogan against the Palestinian movement
03:38sounded yesterday at a gathering of a hundred people in Gaza.
03:43This took place the day after a similar demonstration in Beit Lahya.
03:47This city in northern Gaza was the scene of the largest anti-Hamas rally since the beginning of the Israeli massacre.
03:55The message we want to convey is first of all to the Israeli occupation to stop the war,
04:02to stop the bloodshed that is taking place.
04:05We cannot tolerate more.
04:07The second message is addressed to Hamas.
04:09We have had enough.
04:10We are tired.
04:11There is no house to live in, no food, no salary.
04:14No member of my family is alive.
04:16I have become disabled.
04:17After this rally, calls to demonstrate of unknown origin in nine points of the Gaza Strip had circulated on Telegram.
04:24In addition to being mobilized by these anti-Hamas demonstrations,
04:27the Palestinian territory is also a victim of the threats of the Israeli Prime Minister.
04:32Netanyahu said on Wednesday that he would seize Gaza if Hamas did not release the hostages.
04:38He also explained that more and more Gazans understand that Hamas brings them destruction and ruin.
04:44This proves that his policy works,
04:46since Israel regularly calls on the inhabitants of Gaza to mobilize against the Palestinian movement.
04:52In recent days, we have seen another change.
04:55We have seen something that we had never seen before.
04:58We have seen large open demonstrations in the Gaza Strip against the Hamas government.
05:03We have already seen many pro-Hamas demonstrations in European capitals,
05:07in campuses, in the United States.
05:09But demonstrations like this one in Gaza against Hamas is something we had never seen before.
05:15But Netanyahu lives the same fate.
05:17Since last week, thousands of Israelis have participated in anti-government demonstrations.
05:23The accuser of calling himself a democracy
05:25and having resumed strikes on the Gaza Strip after two months of strife,
05:28without worrying about the fate of the hostages.
05:37Direction of the South Sudan,
05:39where President Salvaki's forces arrested his rival on Wednesday,
05:43the first vice-president, Riek Machar,
05:46according to the party of the latter, the UN,
05:48was alarmed at the risk of seeing the country fall back into a generalized conflict.
05:53A convoy of heavily armed vehicles,
05:55driven by the Minister of Defense and the head of national security,
05:59penetrated forcefully into the residence of the vice-president in Juba,
06:04and this one was arrested.
06:06This development occurs after a day marked by artillery fire near Juba,
06:11the capital of the youngest state on the planet,
06:14in the wake of a chronic instability
06:16after a bloody civil war between the forces of Kiir and Machar.
06:20In the course of this conflict,
06:22which resulted in some 400,000 deaths and 4 million displaced between 2013 and 2018,
06:28the two factions reached a fragile power sharing agreement.
06:34Juba, Sudan
06:39The Sudanese capital Khartoum is liberated.
06:43This is what the head of the Sudanese army, General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, affirms.
06:48The Sudanese army has taken over the airport in Khartoum.
06:51The paramilitary forces of the rapid support of these troops
06:54have also encircled the strategic area of Jebel Aliya,
06:58the last great bastion of the FSR in the region.
07:01Khartoum is liberated, it's over,
07:03said the presidential palace on Friday,
07:06last to the FSR, the leader of Sudan,
07:09in a speech broadcast on public television.
07:20After two years, the war in Sudan between the army and the FSR
07:24killed tens of thousands of people,
07:27massacred more than 12 million,
07:30and created one of the worst humanitarian crises in the world.
07:33Rashid Farhal
07:35The humanitarian situation in Sudan is getting worse
07:39with the recent clashes in the capital Khartoum.
07:43The conflict, which opposes the Sudanese armed forces
07:46and the rapid support forces,
07:48has exacerbated a humanitarian crisis that is already critical.
07:52The United Nations warns of this unprecedented humanitarian crisis
07:57that is currently taking place in Sudan.
08:03It is not the fault of the civilians.
08:05They do not assume any responsibility in this conflict
08:08and yet they are the ones who pay the highest price.
08:13Nearly two-thirds of the population need emergency aid
08:17in cases of famine are reported in several regions of the country,
08:21hundreds of thousands of people live in overcrowded camps,
08:25often deprived of food, drinking water and medical care.
08:32The situation in hospitals is very difficult.
08:35Many people lose loved ones
08:37due to lack of medication and necessary care.
08:41Despite the humanitarian efforts,
08:43the situation in Sudan continues to deteriorate
08:46with thousands of civilians trapped in this conflict.
08:50The UN calls for an urgent action
08:53to avoid an even deeper humanitarian crisis.
09:00We are going to Niger, where the authorities have started
09:03the implementation of the National Assembly resolutions
09:06held last February.
09:08This Wednesday, General Abdelrahman Netiani
09:10was thus appointed as President of the Republic
09:13for a five-year transition mandate.
09:16It was a period of governance
09:18that required the promulgation of a charter of re-founding.
09:22Our correspondent Jean-Gibril William has more.
09:28It is a new chapter that opens up for Niger
09:31and for its head of state, the now General of the Army,
09:34Abdelrahman Netiani, who was sworn in on March 26
09:37as President of the Republic.
09:39Twenty months after his accession to power
09:41in favor of a military coup,
09:43it is in the presence of civil, religious and military authorities
09:46but also of diplomatic representatives
09:49that the new President of Niger
09:51was given the Grand Collier,
09:53symbol of the Supreme Magistrate.
09:56Now, the Grand Collier of the President of the Republic.
10:08Excellency, Mr. President of the Republic,
10:13we recognize you as Grand Master
10:16of the National Orders of Niger.
10:20The ceremony, held this Wednesday,
10:22thus marks the entry into force
10:24of the resolutions issued by the National Assemblies
10:26held a few weeks ago.
10:28A rise in rank from Brigadier General
10:30to General of the Army for the new President of the Republic
10:33and a period of transition
10:35fixed at a 60-month period.
10:37Immediately, it seems that the head of state
10:40has also wanted to sign a series of decrees
10:43that put into practice some popular demands.
10:46An ordinance relating to political parties.
10:49At the end of this ordinance,
10:51political parties are dissolved.
10:56General of the Army Abdramane Tchani
10:59orders the implementation of the recommendation
11:02of the National Assemblies here
11:04for the refoundation of the freedom
11:07of some people who have come
11:09or who have been condemned,
11:11civil and military.
11:13Measures included in the charter
11:15of the refoundation announced on March 26
11:17and which should govern the main lines
11:19of the country's governance
11:21during the next five years.
11:23The charter we are adopting today
11:25is part of the structure
11:27of the classical approach
11:29of constitutional texts.
11:33It organizes public authorities
11:36and imposes the principles and values
11:38of the refoundation of our Republic.
11:42Focused on patriotism,
11:44social cohesion and civility,
11:46the new charter of the refoundation
11:48envisages, among other things,
11:50the holding of a popular referendum
11:52preferable to any installation
11:54of foreign military bases in Niger,
11:56as well as several measures
11:58aimed at protecting the country's natural resources.
12:01And we continue this newspaper
12:03with the fires that ravage
12:05the south-east of South Korea,
12:07the most destructive fires
12:09recorded in the country,
12:11consuming more forests
12:13than any other fire
12:15indicated this Thursday.
12:17The authorities specify
12:19that the figure was increased
12:21to 26 deaths.
12:23More than a dozen fires
12:25have been declared
12:27during the weekend,
12:29cutting roads and lines of communication,
12:31thousands of people have been forced
12:33to evacuate urgently.
12:35The fire is spreading rapidly.
12:37The head of the disaster
12:39and security division
12:41added that 26 people
12:43are dead,
12:458 are seriously injured,
12:4722 were slightly injured
12:49according to a last report.
12:51This catastrophe of unprecedented
12:53magnitude reveals once again
12:55the harsh reality
12:57of a climate crisis
12:59unprecedented by
13:01the head of the security
13:03Li Hong-Kyong.
13:09French President Emmanuel Macron
13:11met this morning in Paris
13:13the leaders of nearly 30 allies
13:15of Ukraine for a new
13:17summit of the Voluntary Coalition
13:19which must finalize the security
13:21guarantees brought to Kiev
13:23in case of peace agreements
13:25with Russia.
13:27Volodymyr Zelensky,
13:29already received last night
13:31at the Elysée where he had
13:33the promise of a new French military aid
13:35of 2 billion euros.
13:37Emmanuel Macron will welcome
13:39the British Air Star Mayor,
13:41the Italian Giorgia Meloni
13:43and the German Olaf Scholz.
13:45Again, the Turkish Vice President
13:47Sevdet Yilmaz.
13:49NATO President Mark Rutte
13:51is also expected,
13:53as well as the leaders of the European Union.
13:55The summit organized since mid-February
13:57successively by Paris and London
13:59is time to draw
14:01operational conclusions
14:03explained by the French Presidency
14:05in the press.
14:07More details in this story
14:09of Infected Schemes.
14:11After two years of war,
14:13Ukraine declares it needs
14:15a serious contribution of European soldiers
14:17ready to fight after the war
14:19and not a maintenance force of peace.
14:21On its side, the Secretary of State
14:23Marco Rubio declared this Wednesday
14:25that the United States would examine
14:27Russia's demands in order to
14:29cease fire with Ukraine in the Black Sea
14:31while warning that a peace agreement
14:33would take time.
14:35We hope and believe that the United States
14:37have enough power to push the Russian President
14:39Vladimir Putin to cease fire
14:41unconditionally.
14:43The French President who has just met
14:45his Ukrainian counterpart
14:47said that it is too early
14:49to raise sanctions imposed on Moscow
14:51and Ukraine.
14:53Macron also announced an additional military aid
14:55of 2 billion euros from France to Ukraine
14:57accusing Russia of showing
14:59its will to war.
15:01France since the beginning, as you know,
15:03brings capabilities that meet the priority needs
15:05of the Ukrainian Armed Forces
15:07and we have prepared an additional aid
15:09with anti-tank missiles Milan,
15:11air defense means such as Mika missiles
15:13that equip the Mirages
15:15that have been delivered or
15:17mistral solar defense missiles.
15:19On the front, the Ukrainian armies
15:21will also receive armored VAMs,
15:23dispersed AMX tanks
15:25but also numerous ammunition
15:27including some tele-operated or drones
15:29and we have also advanced
15:31on cooperation in
15:33satellite or intelligence.
15:35Vladimir Zelensky thanked
15:37his French counterpart for his support
15:39specifying that they had also discussed
15:41an increase in the number of Mirages
15:43given by France and in the face of this
15:45Russian-Ukrainian conflict, a new summit
15:47of the Coalition of Volunteers ready
15:49to provide security guarantees
15:51to Ukraine will take place this Thursday.
15:53More than 20 EU and NATO countries
15:55including the United Kingdom, Canada,
15:57Norway and Turkey have been invited
15:59to participate, according to the
16:01French President. The summit will
16:03aim to finalize work
16:05on short-term military support
16:07from Ukraine as well as on
16:09European security guarantees
16:11including possible deployment of troops.
16:14Here are the guests of Media Intégrée.
16:28There was the arrest of
16:30Imamoglu.
16:32The agenda is March 23,
16:34that is, on March 23,
16:36his party had to designate
16:38him as a candidate
16:40for the presidential election.
16:42That's why it happened.
16:44Of course, demonstrations
16:46are a derivative.
16:48It is an authoritarian derivative
16:50which is extremely worrying
16:52with the arrest of a party leader.
16:54I note that in Turkey,
16:56it is not the first time that
16:58political leaders have been arrested.
17:00If you look at history since 1960,
17:02in 1960 it was Adnan Menderes
17:04who had been arrested.
17:06In 1980 it was
17:08Bulent Ecevit.
17:10In 2016 it was
17:12President Prokud
17:14and Salahuddin
17:16Demirtas.
17:21The exchanges between Spain and Morocco
17:23are stable, with constant
17:25evolution. The exchanges
17:27between Morocco and Spain,
17:29as Alvarez said yesterday,
17:31are marked
17:33by complementarity.
17:35We, Spain and Morocco,
17:37have managed to build
17:40one of the most
17:42competitive value chains
17:44in the region.
17:46We build cars together,
17:48we build
17:50planes together.
17:52The added value
17:54in our exchanges is very present
17:56and the diplomatic
17:58rapprochement between
18:00our two countries and politics
18:02has helped and facilitated this work.
18:04What do you think about the question of migration?
18:07All the researchers in the world,
18:09or almost all the researchers in the world,
18:11who have been working on this issue
18:13for more than a century
18:15and on the question
18:17of deaths
18:19a little less than a century,
18:21thirty years, agree
18:23to explain that the more
18:25we create prohibitions in migration,
18:27which is a natural phenomenon,
18:29not only natural but also
18:31encouraged by certain
18:33employment markets,
18:35even by certain countries,
18:37the more we create deaths.
18:39To such an extent that it has become
18:41a speciality today called
18:43border studies.
18:45There are specialties in
18:47some American and European universities
18:49around the study
18:51of borders and its consequences.
18:53We have a serious problem
18:55with borders.
18:57The borderization of the world
18:59is something quite recent.
19:01It started in the 1980s
19:03and it has tried to stop
19:05circulations that have existed
19:07for a long time and which are necessary
19:09for all societies,
19:11even for those who receive them.
19:13But the world has changed
19:15and some societies,
19:17especially from North American
19:19or European countries,
19:21have decided in the last 30 years
19:23to drastically reduce the number
19:25of people who enter their territory.
19:27What is the role of the Turks?
19:29You should know that the Turks
19:31are already a people
19:33with a long history behind them
19:35and they are in a geopolitical context
19:37which is quite difficult.
19:39They are between Europe, the Middle East
19:41and Russia on one side.
19:43When Erdogan
19:45came to power,
19:47what he did was that he opened
19:49himself more to the world.
19:51Let's not forget that Kamal Ataturk
19:53had directed Turkey to the West
19:55and the Arab-Muslim world.
19:57He even locked himself up
19:59on the Turkish-speaking population.
20:01To go back to the arrest of
20:03Imamoglu,
20:05he is accused of two things.
20:07He is accused of corruption
20:09and you should know
20:11that corruption is something
20:13that prevails in all
20:15Turkish political parties.
20:17Why is this now raising questions?
20:19Because those who are targeted
20:21are the opposition.
20:23There are also the men in power
20:25and the ruling party
20:27also has corruption cases.
20:31There is also a case of terrorism
20:33which is not clear.
20:37There is a media war
20:39between the political parties
20:41and the party in power.
20:43This is the end of this edition.
20:45Thank you for following it.
20:47Enjoy the rest of the program.
