00:00The Algerian proposal to partition the Moroccan Sahara is a usual execution of Algiers in
00:27its diplomatic debauchery.
00:28In New York and in Hilal, the new strategist, Mehaly Bi-Algeria, has been exposed to international
00:35pressure.
00:36Details in a few moments.
00:40King Felipe VI and Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez arrived today in the southeast of Spain,
00:47where heavy rains were announced after the floods of an enormous violence, which caused
00:52at least 214 deaths in the country.
00:57It is a decisive Sunday for Kamala Harris and Donald Trump, two days before the US presidential election.
01:03The two candidates are going head-to-head to convince the undecided.
01:06We meet right away for the development.
01:12Welcome, ladies and gentlemen.
01:14Omar Hilal and Morocco want to be clear.
01:16The Algerian proposal to partition the Moroccan Sahara is a usual execution of Algiers in
01:22its diplomatic debauchery.
01:24For the permanent representative of the Kingdom of Morocco to the UN, neither the former personal
01:29envoy of the Secretary General of the United Nations, James Baker, nor the current Stéphane
01:34de Mistura, were at the origin of this partition idea.
01:39They were only messengers from Algeria who made this proposal their favorite alibi to
01:46eclipsing round tables and withdrawing from international pressure as the main winning
01:53party in this different region.
01:56In the context of the struggle against international banditry, the elements of security intervened
02:04on Friday at the Mohamed V airport in Casablanca, an Algerian-origin French outpost.
02:10The latter was subject to an international arrest warrant issued by the French judicial
02:16authorities.
02:17According to Interpol, the 30-year-old suspect was actively wanted for his presumed involvement
02:23in a case of death threats, material damage caused to other people's property, harassment
02:28of an official and violation of other people's property.
02:33In the direction of Spain, following the natural disaster that hit the country, solidarity
02:40is being organized to help the victims.
02:43Laura Filipe and Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez arrived in the southeast of the country.
02:48This disaster has so far cost the lives of at least 214 people.
02:53Another provisional assessment is that at any time 10,000 additional soldiers and police
03:00have been sent on the ground to assist the victims and help in the search for the missing.
03:10Place, now, around the horizon of this historic election campaign in the United States.
03:15It is Sunday, which is decisive for Kamala Harris and Donald Trump, who throw their last
03:31strength in an anxious presidential campaign for the United States and the rest of the
03:37world.
03:38Vice President Democrat and former tenant of the White House are fighting to convince
03:43the indecisive, while 75 million voters have voted in advance.
03:48The campaign to lead, on January 20, 2025, the first world power to succeed President
03:54Joe Biden is the most aggressive in the recent history of the United States, under the worried
04:00gaze of its partners, notably in Europe and the Middle East.
04:05What are the political issues of this campaign, described as historic in the United States?
04:13Elements of the answer with Jean-François Pauly, lawyer and director of the Institut
04:18Méditerranéen de Droit et de Géopolitique.
04:21The political issues will be to know who will win, obviously, Kamala Harris or Trump,
04:29President Trump, since he has already been president, because the two candidates do not
04:35have the same approaches on the national level as on the international level, with, shall
04:42we say, a desire to be more in favor of the Palestinians on the part of Kamala Harris
04:48and a desire to be more in favor of the State of Israel on the part of Trump.
04:53We don't really know, because in reality, all this is a bit anecdotal, because there
04:58are always constants on the part of the United States.
05:01And then we will have to see, case by case, what will be the real position of the one
05:08who will be, or the one who will be elected president of the United States.
05:13So we can't, well, what we can say, quite simply, is that Donald Trump seems to turn
05:22more towards the interior than towards the international level.
05:29And Kamala Harris seems to turn more towards the international level than towards the internal level.
05:34But let's make guidelines.
05:36And whatever the president is elected, there will be a concern to have an international
05:43action like having an action in the internal order.
05:47So the inflections will still be limited and the issues will perhaps be more important
05:59regarding Donald Trump's election, who said that he was going to focus on his country,
06:05that he was going, for example, regarding the war in Ukraine, to get out of the conflict
06:10or, in any case, to stop the participation of the United States in aid, in terms of aid
06:16brought to Ukraine, while Kamala Harris is more in favor of aid support.
06:24So there will be extremely strong implications for Europe in particular, but more broadly
06:32for the whole world.
06:35And it will also be interesting to see, in the Middle East, how American policy will be oriented,
06:43given what is happening, especially in the Gaza Strip, and extremely strong tensions,
06:50with a large number of human lives disappearing in this area.
07:04And then in the Middle East, while the military escalation as verbal continues, the Iranian
07:13Supreme Guide, Ali Khamenei, swore yesterday to respond in a bloody way to any attack
07:19from the United States and Israel, which announced that it had captured a high-ranking agent
07:24from the pro-Iranian Hezbollah during an operation carried out by an elite unit in Lebanon.
07:29In northern Gaza, health conditions remain deplorable after more than a year of bombing.
07:35A vaccination center against polio has been hit and six people have been injured, including four children.
07:46This Sunday, the Israeli army issued a new call to the population to evacuate certain areas
07:52of the Baalbek region in eastern Lebanon, warning of strikes against Hezbollah.
07:59Israel has also called for the evacuation of the villages of Dores, near the millennial city
08:04that had already been the target of a series of strikes on October 30.
08:15Back on the continent to talk about the head of British diplomacy, David Lamy,
08:21who is starting a visit to Nigeria and South Africa today, focused on economic cooperation,
08:27where he will plead for a new approach in relations between London and its African partners.
08:33This trip is the first on the African continent for the Minister of Foreign Affairs
08:38since the return of workers to power in early July in the United Kingdom.
08:43This time in Sudan, at least 12 people were killed yesterday in the west of the country
08:49by artillery fire from paramilitary forces, rapid support forces.
08:55Information brought by the Local Resistance Committee, a pro-democracy group
09:01that organizes aid between inhabitants in the country devastated by the war between the army
09:08and the paramilitaries, which has so far caused tens of thousands of deaths.
09:20And then in Mozambique, new clashes rose on Saturday.
09:24The police and demonstrators in several cities of the country.
09:28The opposition contests the results of the presidential election,
09:32according to international observers, by multiple irregularities.
09:36In the capital, Maputo, hundreds of people gathered before being dispersed by the police
09:42with tear gas and rubber bullets.
09:46Venantio Mondlane, the main opponent, who claims victory at the presidential election,
09:52called for a national strike and demonstrations until November 7th.
09:58And that's the end of this report.
10:00Thank you for following it.
