2. Zuma and crowd at news conference
3. Cutaway reporters
4. SOUNDBITE (English) Jacob Zuma, African National Congress leader
"The troika of SADC (Southern African Development Community) was meeting in Swaziland yesterday but what we hear, from the news, that meeting couldn't be taken very further because Morgan, the leader of the MDC, did not have a passport to travel to Swaziland, which is something that we can't understand. That you have such a problem to resolve and it cannot be resolved just because one of the key players doesn't have a passport. We can't understand why a citizen of Zimbabwe doesn't have a passport to travel. But I think in a sense it indicates some difficulties, but we're hoping that the situation will be resolved. I think we are at one in wishing that the problems must resolved, so that the issues could be addressed in Zimbabwe."
5. Cutaway reporters
6. Wide of news conference
STORYLINE:
The leader of South Africa's ruling party criticised Zimbabwe's government on Tuesday for hindering talks on a power sharing deal with the opposition.
Speaking in Washington, African National Congress President Jacob Zuma called on other African countries to increase pressure on Zimbabwe.
On Monday, Zimbabwe opposition leader Morgan Tsvangirai complained that his government's refusal to grant him a passport made it difficult to attend power sharing talks in nearby Swaziland.
Tsvangirai's absence prompted Zimbabwe's neighbours to propose moving a meeting of a committee of the main regional bloc to Zimbabwe next week.
Zuma said he couldn't understand why Tsvangirai had not been issued with a passport, especially in light of the political problems that have engulfed the country.
Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe and Tsvangirai signed a power-sharing deal last month but are deadlocked over how to allocate ministries in a 31-member unity Cabinet.
However Zuma expressed optimism that issue will be resolved in Zimbabwe declaring he believes the leaders of the region "are at one" on the sentiments towards the country.
Zuma is expected to be elected South African president next year. He was in Washington to meet Bush administration officials, including Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice.

While much has been written and discussed about China-Africa relations at the state level, attention is only now turning to China-Africa relations at the sub-national level. This is as the number of Chinese migrants to Africa is estimated to have risen from 160,000 in 1996 to 1.1 million in 2012. This event will look at Africa-China relations at the state and non-state levels, with a focus on sub-national relations in Zambia.

Zambia and China have a longstanding official state-to-state relationship dating back to Zambia’s independence in 1964. In recent years, the relationship has come under scrutiny with Zambia’s increasing dependence on Chinese debt, increased Chinese migration to Zambia, and lackluster Zambian economic performance. Zambians have sometimes viewed the Chinese presence in Zambia negatively—particularly as it relates to Chinese engagement in Zambia’s economy. A growing popular image of China and Chinese citizens as exploitative employers and economic usurpers has led to increasing resentment and tensions. There is fear of a growing disconnect between the steady and cordial state-to-state official relations and the rising tension between Chinese migrants and Zambian citizens.

Speakers will address the evolving nature of Africa-China relations more generally while also looking beyond state-level relations to unpack the growing migration of Chinese citizens to Africa and assess the tone and touch-points of the evolving relationship between Chinese migrants and African citizens. The event will also feature a case study of the dynamics of Zambian-Chinese relationships at the citizen-level, the growing tensions within that relationship, and policy options for addressing the evolving relationship at both the state and non-state levels.

The SVNP is a continent-wide network of African policy, research and academic organizations that works with the Wilson Center’s Africa Program to bring African knowledge and perspectives to U.S., African, and international policy on peacebuilding in Africa. Established in 2011 and supported by the generous financial support of the Carnegie Corporation of New York, the project provides avenues for African researchers and practitioners to engage with and exchange analyses and perspectives with U.S., African, and international policymakers in order to develop the most appropriate, cohesive, and inclusive policy frameworks and approaches to achieving sustainable peace in Africa.

Our second virtual Google for Africa event held on October 5, 2022. During the keynote, we shared how we are delivering on the commitment we made in last year's Google for Africa event, where we announced our plan to invest $1B over 5 years to support a range of initiatives from improved connectivity to investment in startups to help boost Africa’s digital transformation.

In this talk, Charming employs a Zimbabwean perspective to evaluate the West's aspirational leading role in the fight against COVID-19. By identifying the corrupting influences and biased reasoning that turn such good intentions into undesirable outcomes, he hopes to inspire a reconsideration of what it means to assist effectively. Charming Dube grew up pinched between the regime of Robert Mugabe and the sanctions enacted by George W Bush on the Zimbabwean government. He is interested in the relationships between wealthy nations and international institutions on the one hand, and poorer countries on the other. This curiosity led him to two capstones at Tufts, his alma mater. The first examined the effect that bureaucratic rivalry between the International Monetary Fund and World Bank had on the country responses to AIDS in South Africa, Uganda, and Zimbabwe, and the second considered the Zimbabwean response to COVID-19. In his free time, he enjoys reading biographies and is an avid player of the SimCity franchise. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx

As inflation in Argentina soared close to 100% in 2022, a 30-year high, people are doing whatever it takes to survive. Some barter online for pantry staples, and others ditch the peso to shield the value of their savings.

STORYLINE:

The recent political instability in Zimbabwe has had direct effects on the tourist industry in Kenya this year- which has seen a 20% increase in safari holidays.

A series of restructuring measures in the tourist industry has also helped to bring the crowds in.

Marketing strategies, improved security arrangements, better lodging facilities have all helped to attract a wider gamet of adventurers, of all ages, into the country.

The Masai Mara covers an area of about 1,500 square kms in the southwestern corner of Kenya.

This is the stuff of western tourist dreams: nature at its wildest, a world away from the urban jungles many wish to escape - at least for a few weeks.

Here people come to see, among others, lions, giraffes, elephants and buffalos.

This is also the season of annual migration for the wildebeast.

They come from Tanzania into Kenya to graze on the Mara plains - and to mate.

Then they return to Tanzania in November.

Tourists flock to see this annual event, but unfortunately their presence has affected these annual cycles by hindering the crossing of the wilderbeast.

So while Kenya depends increasingly on the tourist industry, its effects pose real threats to the country's ecological life.

To mark what would have been Nelson Mandela's 100th birthday in 2018, Sir Trevor McDonald is back in the country where he conducted one of television's most historic interviews.

Subscribe to Our History: https://bit.ly/3v5mKBG

Nearly three decades after they met in the immediate aftermath of Mandela's release, Trevor returns to explore South Africa - hearing the stories of very different people who sum up a nation changed beyond all recognition since his first reports from the country in the mid-1980s - today a very different nation no doubt, but is it still a land of division and extremes? What has become of the Rainbow Nation?

Around 18,000 years ago, the falls didn't exist. They were formed then ice sheet from the North Pole left behind vast areas of landscape, what we know today as North America. When the vast chunks of ice started to melt, the fall came into existence. When the glaciers melted, a considerable amount of water was sent into the Niagara River. It took a lot of time for the water to erode the cliffs, and the falls were formed. By the end of the 19the century, the world's first hydroelectric generating station was built near the falls. Soon, it started producing electricity. Unfortunately, the electricity could only carry 300-feet, so everyone knew that improvements had to be made. Nicola Tesla was the man who made those changes. He found a way to send electricity to long distances bu using alternating current. Today, the fall's power plants produce more than two million kilowatts of power.

The scientists wanted to see if it was possible to see what was going on behind the falls. They thought that if they could stop them from flowing, they could find out the mysteries behind them. Tempering nature is a challenge, and many people wondered if what the scientists had planned was even possible. How is it possible to stop such a powerful force?

This may sound strange, but the amount of water changes at night. This isn't something that happens; naturally, it is due to a human factor. Local companies are allowed to take water from the falls, but only at night. During the '50s, the locals signed a treaty to take more water at night when there weren't too many tourists there, and they wouldn't notice a difference.

Technically, the Niagara Falls belong to Canada and the United States. There are parts of the falls that belong only to the United States. The American Falls and the Bridal Veil Falls are two parts of Niagara Falls, and they belong only to America. There are not parts of the falls that belong to Canada exclusively.

It was believed that the stones that accumulate at the bottom of the falls could cause problems in the future. The concerns of the New York citizens reached Canada, and an organization that takes care of the shared waters was contacted. They are called the International Joint Commission, and they discovered that something had to be done with the accumulated rocks at the bottom of the waterfalls. They even contacted the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers for their opinion on the matter.

Nobody could come up with a solution for the accumulated rocks, so they decided to shut down the falls. In the summer of 1969, over 1,000 trucks carried rocks and Earth to the falls just to get them to stop flowing. The loads were dumped upstream of the waterfall for three days. A cofferdam was created, and the falls stopped flowing. The water was redirected from there to the Horseshoe Falls.

The locals were very worried for two reasons. First, they knew that you couldn't control water. What would happen if the water was rerouted the wrong way, causing a significant flood? Also, they were worried about the tourists. What would happen if they failed to get the falls flowing again? Many locals made money from the tourists. If the falls stopped, the money would dry up as well. The tourists did stop visiting the falls that summer, but those who did show up got to see something that nobody will ever see again. They also had the opportunity to take rocks and incredible coins from the riverbed.

The people who watched while the waters of the fall over the falls when it drained saw skeletons in the water. It was unclear whether the skeletons belonged to animals who had drowned or people who had fallen in the falls at one point. When one of the skeletons was examined, it was determined that the man died when he jumped into the falls. The year that he died was unknown. Another skeleton was a woman, and there was no apparent cause of death apart from drowning. It is believed that the woman saw her loved one drown, and decided to meet him in the same spot.

The fact that the experts were able to stop the falls from flowing was incredible. Fortunately, the falls started flowing again, and today, the Niagara Falls are as incredible as ever. Had the experts not been able to stop the water so they could remove the stones back in 1969, we might have lost one of the greatest wonders of the world.

The EU imposed sanctions against Moscow as a response to the Russian invasion of Ukraine. But loopholes raise doubts about whether these are working.

There is evidence that dual-use items that can also be used for military purposes are reaching Russia – from microelectronics, to replacement parts for related industries, to cars and weapons. How can this be happening in spite of sanctions? Where are the loopholes? To find out, DW reporter Miodrag Soric went to Georgia, a Western-oriented country that officially supports the imposed sanctions. Georgia is also a close neighbor of Russia, with all the economic ties and geopolitical dependencies that that implies. Allegedly, large amounts of exports continue to go to Russia via countries such as Georgia, Kyrgyzstan, and Armenia. How do they get there? How can this be stopped? Miodrag Soric searches for clues.

Grey Aliens, sometimes called Zeta Reticulans, Roswell Greys, or just Grays, are defined by their humanoid forms, long limbs, large black eyes, small noses, thin mouths, and of course, gray skin or gray clothing. They are some of pop culture’s most recognizable representations of extraterrestrial life. But where did this depiction of extraterrestrials come from, and why are Grays the ones mostly responsible for all the abductions?

Special thank you to Josef Lorenzo and the entire Subcultured team for the delightful conversation and invaluable contribution to this episode.

The world is full of monsters, myths, and legends and Monstrum isn’t afraid to take a closer look. The show, hosted by Emily Zarka, Ph.D., takes us on a journey to discover a new monster in each new episode. Monstrum looks at humans' unique drive to create and shape monster mythology through oral storytelling, literature, and film and digs deep into the history of those mythologies.
