00:00Good evening and welcome to Medea TV. Thank you for joining us.
00:20Here are the headlines.
00:24The south-east of Spain is plagued by floods.
00:27The authorities state that 211 people have disappeared,
00:30while the search operations continue.
00:34The Israeli army is again aiming for a border post between Lebanon and Syria.
00:38This is the second Israeli bombing of this kind in nearly a week.
00:45J-3 before the presidential election in the United States.
00:48Kamala Harris and Donald Trump play their last card before facing off next Tuesday.
00:54The floods in the south-east of Spain have killed at least 211 people.
01:00This figure is likely to rise again, according to the authorities,
01:04due to the number of missing people.
01:06The Spanish Prime Minister has announced today
01:08that he is sending 10,000 more police and soldiers
01:11to help the displaced people and help them search for them.
01:19The Marrakech Airshow continues in Marrakech.
01:21More than 180 exhibitors representing the giants of aeronautics
01:25participate in this major event for professionals in the sector.
01:28A show that allows to explore cutting-edge aeronautical technologies
01:31and attend aircraft exhibitions.
01:34Hundreds of students participated in conferences
01:37hosted by the leaders of the aeronautical industry.
01:41Omar Sardati is one of the exhibitors of this show.
01:44I suggest you listen to him.
01:46Here we are aiming at a drone that will be manufactured from A to Z,
01:50100% in Morocco, with a technology that is at the level of software,
01:55at the level of hardware.
01:57And the second point, we would like an artificial intelligence
02:02that is embedded, which will allow this drone
02:05to understand the indications given by the military
02:09to carry out missions that are complex,
02:13i.e. automatic recognition, for example, of targets,
02:16and also the identification of the best path
02:20to reach the target with great efficiency.
02:24And another strong point of our company
02:27is that we want to go as far as possible towards autonomy,
02:30i.e. even in areas where the GPS signal is not available,
02:35we would like to use computer vision technologies
02:39to allow the drone to locate itself automatically
02:43without the need for a GPS.
02:46And another quality of our product,
02:49as it is a product that will be manufactured 100% in Morocco,
02:52the manufacturing cost is much lower
02:55compared to the products that we buy today
02:58and that are manufactured abroad and that we currently buy.
03:02Today, we are at a fairly advanced stage.
03:08We created our first prototype, as you can see here,
03:12in less than a year.
03:14And it is our first prototype that allowed us
03:17to validate our first hypotheses
03:19regarding manufacturing costs,
03:22the execution of the mission,
03:24the precision and also the market demand,
03:27having contacts with the military, etc.
03:31And now we are at the second phase,
03:34where we are working on the second prototype
03:37that will allow us to go towards industrialization
03:40and a larger-scale creation.
03:43The Moroccan Barreau Association
03:45protests against the revision projects
03:47of the Civil and Penal Procedure Codes,
03:49a judicial reform project
03:51elaborated unilaterally.
03:53The BAM has therefore decided to suspend
03:55all its planned defense actions
03:57during this month of November.
04:02Apocalyptic is the term used by UN agency leaders
04:05to describe the situation in the north of the Gaza Strip.
04:08The entire Palestinian population is exposed
04:11to the imminent risk of dying of illness,
04:13famine or violence.
04:15Signatories from UN agencies demand
04:18that the State of Israel cease its attacks
04:20and its bombings against the Palestinian people
04:22and against the humanitarians.
04:24Palestinian authorities have announced
04:26a report of more than 43,300 deaths
04:28since October 7, 2023.
04:32An Israeli strike targeted a border post
04:34between Lebanon and Syria this Saturday.
04:37This is the second Israeli bombardment
04:39of the kind in nearly a week.
04:41A UN official mentioned
04:43affected humanitarian structures.
04:45Targeted for the first time on October 25,
04:47this border post is crucial
04:49for the passage of refugees fleeing the war.
04:52It was hit again
04:54on the Syrian side
04:56at the first hours of this Saturday
04:58according to the Syrian Observatory
05:01The fall of a rocket on a building
05:03injured at least 19 people.
05:05Today in Tira, in the center of Israel,
05:07the Israeli army claims
05:09to have identified three projectiles
05:11fired from Lebanon.
05:13Three days ago, rocket fire
05:15killed seven people,
05:17including four Thai agricultural workers.
05:23Let's move on to the US presidential election.
05:30Last weekend of presidential campaign
05:32in the United States.
05:34Kamala Harris will be again in the key states
05:36who will decide the fate of the scrutiny.
05:38In Georgia, in North Carolina
05:40or in Michigan,
05:42the Democratic candidate will try
05:44to convince the last undecided
05:46that she is the antidote to Trump.
05:48While the former Republican president
05:50accused her in Michigan this Friday
05:52the Biden and Harris administration
05:54of having failed.
05:56In the United States,
05:58the former Republican president
06:00accused her in Michigan this Friday
06:02the Biden and Harris administration
06:04of having failed.
06:06This presidential campaign
06:08was marked by unprecedented
06:10verbal violence on both sides
06:12as the editor-in-chief
06:14of Voice of America,
06:16Abdelrahman Dia, told us.
06:18Let's say on the part of both sides,
06:20in any case,
06:22in the opinion of many observers,
06:24this last week of campaign
06:26seems to be marked
06:28by these skirmishes
06:30between the two sides.
06:32This started last weekend
06:34during a campaign meeting
06:36of the candidate Donald Trump
06:38when an actor compared
06:40the island of Puerto Rico
06:42to a floating island of garbage.
06:44to a floating island of garbage.
06:46The next day or the day after,
06:48President Biden,
06:50who is not a candidate,
06:52was also accused
06:54of treating Donald Trump's supporters
06:56as garbage,
06:58even though the White House
07:00later indicated
07:02that he was addressing
07:04his supporters
07:06who expressed themselves
07:08during this meeting of Donald Trump.
07:10Anyway, the tension has risen a bit.
07:12And the last controversy
07:14dates from yesterday
07:16when the candidate Donald Trump
07:18used very harsh terms
07:20against a Republican
07:22who supports Kamala Harris,
07:24in this case Liz Cheney.
07:26So the accuser,
07:28today, in fact,
07:30Donald Trump said
07:32that he was rather referring
07:34to his bellicose position
07:36regarding conflicts
07:38such as Ukraine.
07:40But he is sticking to
07:42what he said,
07:44which prompted many observers
07:46to call a little
07:48attention.
07:50This American presidential election
07:52would be the most indecisive
07:54in the history of the United States.
07:56Three days after the election,
07:58polls still fail to divide
08:00the two candidates in the White House.
08:02We listen to Abdelrahman Diar,
08:04editor-in-chief of Voice of America.
08:06Yes, it is true that this morning,
08:08for example, a last poll
08:10carried out by the NBC channel
08:12shows that the two candidates
08:14are at 48% each,
08:16which is still extraordinary
08:18after three days of the presidential election.
08:22But this is at the national level.
08:24And even at the key states,
08:26these famous swing states,
08:28the polls are also extremely tight.
08:30None of the candidates
08:32seem to have more than two points ahead,
08:34which is insignificant
08:36from a statistical point of view,
08:38which is therefore in the path of error.
08:40Indeed,
08:42this makes it very difficult
08:44to make any predictions.
08:46We know that the polls
08:48are not necessarily reliable,
08:50but this year
08:52it is even more indecisive.
08:56In the United States,
08:58no poll manages to divide
09:00the White House candidates
09:02or the White House candidates.
09:04However, they are not the only
09:06smooth candidates.
09:08So who are the other White House
09:10candidates this year?
09:13Gilles Stein, Cornel West
09:15or Chase Oliver.
09:17So who are these outsiders?
09:19They are called the candidates,
09:21the independents often presented
09:23as the fifth wheel of the carriage
09:25of the American presidential election
09:27which has always been,
09:29and with few exceptions,
09:31a duel between two mastodons,
09:33the Democratic Party and the Republican Party.
09:35Gilles Stein, a doctor,
09:37Harvard graduate,
09:39is the candidate of the Green Party
09:42This environmentalist
09:44wants to fight against climate change.
09:46She defends a charter
09:48of economic rights
09:50which would include universal access
09:52to health care and the right to employment.
09:54She is in favor of free public education
09:56and also wants to defend
09:58the access to abortion
10:00and the rights of transgender people.
10:02Gilles Stein is strongly committed
10:04against the war in Gaza
10:06and in support of the Palestinian people.
10:08She also wants to withdraw
10:10from the Trump campaign.
10:12A smooth time for the Democratic Party
10:14before giving up.
10:16Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
10:18had thought of joining the Libertarian Party
10:20before choosing to present
10:22as an independent.
10:24This environmental law lawyer
10:26has been known since the COVID-19 pandemic
10:28for his fight against vaccines
10:30and his interest in conspiracy theories.
10:32He has since been rejected
10:34by a large part of the Kennedy clan.
10:36Cornel West, another independent candidate,
10:38who taught at Harvard and now Princeton,
10:40is a specialist in racial issues
10:42in the United States.
10:44He defines himself as a socialist,
10:46not a Marxist,
10:48and supported the first Democratic presidential elections
10:50of Senator Bernie Sanders
10:52in 2016 and 2020.
10:54Cornel West would like to end the permanent fire
10:56in Gaza and the Israeli withdrawal
10:58from the Palestinian territory.
11:00He also said that he would cut
11:02all American aid to Ukraine
11:04and would like the end of NATO.
11:06He wants to stop oil and gas
11:08projects on the federal lands.
11:10Chase Oliver of the Libertarian Party,
11:12who joined the Libertarian Party
11:14in 2010, defines himself as a pro-weapon.
11:16He wants to withdraw the United States
11:18from any conflict abroad and thus reduce
11:20support for Ukraine and Israel.
11:22He wants to decriminalize the consumption
11:24and possession of drugs and wants to simplify
11:26the process of obtaining
11:28the citizenship of immigrants.
11:30Randall Terry or Peter Sonski,
11:32other candidates will appear on the ballot
11:34in some states, such as Randall Terry
11:36of the Constitution Party.
11:38This 65-year-old man is an anti-abortion figure
11:40in the United States.
11:42Peter Sonski, a candidate for the American
11:44Solidarity Party, is also on the ballot.
11:46He wants to defend the family
11:48and also fights against abortion.
11:50So many candidates for the conquest of the West
11:52that he will take more than a few days
11:54to find out.
11:56At least 70 million Americans
11:58have already voted in correspondence
12:00and in advance.
12:02In 2020, 155 million
12:04were announced for the presidential election.
12:06Pierre-Louis Raymond, political analyst,
12:08explains to us more about this electoral process.
12:10Yes, indeed,
12:12it is an exclusively American electoral process
12:14because a certain number of voters
12:16have already voted before
12:18voters move
12:20to isolated areas.
12:22What must be distinguished is
12:24the vote by correspondence
12:26of the suffragettes expressed in the scrutiny.
12:28Because you have in the United States
12:30538 major voters,
12:32it means that you do not vote
12:34directly for the candidate.
12:36And among the voters,
12:38two categories must be distinguished,
12:40the people who will move
12:42on the days planned
12:44for the physical vote
12:46and the people who
12:48have already started voting
12:50by correspondence.
12:52And these people, of course,
12:54they express votes, they do not express
12:56directly votes.
12:58The major voters, in fact,
13:00what are they going to receive?
13:02They receive both the votes
13:04expressed by the voters
13:06who vote by correspondence
13:08and the votes that are expressed
13:10in the suffragettes.
13:12But the major voters
13:14also have their right to the chapter.
13:16And we have seen in the history
13:18of the American elections
13:20that some major voters
13:22did not necessarily respect
13:24the votes they received.
13:26That is much less true today.
13:28But what remains true
13:30is that the outcome of the election
13:32cannot be made
13:34only by the physical vote
13:36in the suffragettes
13:38because the vote
13:40by correspondence
13:42introduces a certain number
13:44of elements,
13:46a certain number of data
13:48that make that...
13:50I like to say that it's as if you put
13:52all the votes in a big checker
13:54and at the last moment
13:56it was finally the major voters
13:58according to what they were going to send
14:00as votes
14:02who were going to cross.
14:04And so, indeed, you have a very great complexity.
14:06Donald Trump
14:08declared himself against the war in the Middle East
14:10during an interview with the animator
14:12Tucker Carlson in Arizona.
14:14The Republican candidate said
14:16this Thursday, I quote,
14:18we bombed the whole Middle East,
14:20then we left. What did we get? Nothing.
14:22We destroyed everything.
14:24He added that Dick Cheney convinced
14:26George Bush to go to the Middle East.
14:28They went there and killed millions of people.
14:30Donald Trump also pointed out what a big mistake.
14:32900 billion dollars
14:34spent on that
14:36to kill millions of people,
14:38to destroy everything.
14:40Nothing good for our people.
14:53In the west of Sudan,
14:55less than 12 people have been killed
14:57in attacks perpetrated by paramilitary
14:59forces of rapid support.
15:01According to a preliminary report,
15:0312 civilians have been killed and 5 others injured
15:05in FSA bombings today
15:07north of the city of Kutum,
15:09in the north of Darfur.
15:11According to the governor of the region,
15:13FSAs have set fire to about 20 villages
15:15in the same region.
15:19New clashes have been opposed this Saturday.
15:21The police and demonstrators in several
15:23cities of Maputo. The opposition
15:25contests the results of the presidential election
15:27charged with several irregularities
15:29according to international observers.
15:31In the capital,
15:33hundreds of people gathered
15:35before being dispersed by the police
15:37with tear gas and rubber bullets.
15:39The main opponent,
15:41Venangio Madlen,
15:43claims victory at the presidential election
15:45and called for a national strike
15:47and demonstrations until November 7.
15:51In Côte d'Ivoire,
15:53members of the Ivorian People's Front
15:55want to continue their partnership
15:57with the RHDP,
15:59a party in power.
16:01An announcement made after
16:03the president of the party,
16:05Pascal Lafim-Guessant,
16:07put an end to the partnership
16:09between the two parties.
16:11Explanations with Max Auby
16:13and Ferdinand Kouakou.
16:15The Ivorian People's Front,
16:17the Pink Party, is in crisis.
16:19Pascal Lafim-Guessant
16:21no longer wants a partnership
16:23with the RHDP.
16:25He calls it an infraction
16:27for his party, the FPI.
16:29Today, we no longer have
16:31the position of deputy of Goumerie.
16:33It was the RHDP that took it.
16:35We no longer have the position
16:37of deputy of the municipality of Bongonou.
16:39It was the RHDP that took it.
16:41We no longer have the position
16:43of mayor of the municipality of Bongonou.
16:45It was the RHDP that took it.
16:47We no longer have the position
16:49of mayor of the municipality of Bongonou
16:51because of this common list
16:53that we have concluded together.
16:55So we have withdrawn,
16:57even in the electoral plenum.
16:59So a party that does not know how to share,
17:01that applies a partnership
17:03that has exclusive profit.
17:05Why? We will continue to stay.
17:07A point of view that is not
17:09shared by his comrades.
17:11The former secretary general
17:13and spokesman of the FPI,
17:15is now at the head of a political current
17:17called Democracy and Valor.
17:19He is campaigning to continue
17:21the alliance with the ruling party.
17:23The partnership allowed us
17:25to display some of our comrades
17:27as vice-presidents in certain regions,
17:29as deputy mayors
17:31in certain municipalities.
17:33We consider that the partnership
17:35remains always for us
17:37an important strategic approach
17:39in the consolidation
17:41of the links between the parties
17:43but in the formation
17:45of a peaceful environment
17:47for the elections to come.
17:49And we are totally attached
17:51to the survival of this partnership.
17:53One year from the elections,
17:55this crisis could weaken the FPI
17:57which has already announced
17:59a presidential candidate
18:01for 2025.
18:03On October 29 of each year,
18:05the International Day for Care
18:07and Assistance to Others was celebrated.
18:09The opportunity for UNIFAN
18:11to organize a three-day seminar
18:13at the place of the producers
18:15and media content producers,
18:17was shared with Mohamed Dagnoko.
18:19The time dedicated to taking care
18:21of others, especially children
18:23and elderly people,
18:25to participate in domestic activities,
18:27although not being numbered,
18:29is no less important
18:31for the balance of our societies.
18:33We saw it with COVID-19
18:35when we had to stay at home
18:37and take care of our loved ones,
18:39who were often sick.
18:41These are unpaid care activities,
18:43these are domestic activities
18:45that often take a lot of time
18:47for the members of the household
18:49and which can even
18:51constrain their participation
18:53in the labor market.
18:55For example, in 2019,
18:57the International Labor Organization
18:59in its report found
19:01that 606 million women
19:03indicated as the main reason
19:05for their non-participation
19:07in the labor market
19:09due to the weight
19:11of unpaid domestic care.
19:13Recognizing these unpaid
19:15domestic activities,
19:17taking them into account
19:19in public policies,
19:21can contribute to strengthen
19:23the care provided to others
19:25and to the country's economic dynamism.
19:27Today, we understood that this is
19:29something that contributes a lot
19:31to the balance of society,
19:33especially if it is recognized.
19:35The recent media coverage
19:37on this concept of unpaid
19:39domestic work has changed
19:41the view of men and women
19:43in the media on this topic
19:45that deserves more space
19:47in their productions.
19:49It allowed me to know
19:51the concerns of these women
19:53who take care of their children
19:55at home, of these men
19:57who take their time
19:59to help their wives at home.
20:01I really liked this topic
20:03and in the future
20:05I will try to use it
20:07and talk about it.
20:09The reduction of the weight
20:11of unpaid domestic work
20:13through policies and mechanisms
20:15can contribute to the creation
20:17of wealth by promoting
20:19the participation of more people
20:21in the unpaid labor market.
20:23This is the end of this newspaper.
20:25Thank you for following it.
20:27Stay with us.
