00:00:00Liric, the event to experience on France
00:00:05but always her sense of 24. Hello, welcome, thank you for following us on
00:00:09France 24 and France info, here are the headlines of this
00:00:11newspaper.
00:00:14An attack on Riyadh airport this Saturday evening killed at least 12 people, an attack
00:00:17attributed to the Yemeni rebel Houthi, there is an American among
00:00:21the victims, Donald Trump said he would quickly decide on an
00:00:24American response.
00:00:27And Ukraine which must have a new. president, that's also Donald
00:00:31Earth... It's not Trump's reaction who calls for replacing
00:00:34Volodimir Zelenski, the Europeans say they are united with
00:00:39Europe, both EU member states and NATO Ukraine, especially after the agreement between Russia and Americans on Russian diesel
00:00:43deliveries, and finally, you will hear the first words
00:00:46of Sophie Anno after her return to Earth, the French astronaut
00:00:50arrived in Germany, her first steps were not the easiest, you
00:00:56Johannesburg under the eyes of will see.
00:01:06At least 12 dead in Saudi Arabia and more than 300 injured in an attack on
00:01:10Riyadh airport according to the figures of Saudi
00:01:13civil aviation. The attack is attributed to the Houthi, a
00:01:16pro-Iranian rebel. Saudi Arabia speaks
00:01:19of a projectile that also fell near
00:01:21disputes precisely around another international airport, that of Dammam, and confirms
00:01:24the interception in the evening of ballistic missiles. This is in any case the deadliest
00:01:28attack in this country since 10 years, also a serious escalation
00:01:31, as the UN describes it, a toll
00:01:36requiring the Ministry of the Interior of 12 dead, 8 foreigners including an American Donald Trump also
00:01:39reacted by speaking of an unacceptable attack, the
00:01:42details with Alice Broga:
00:01:46in front of Riyadh airport, a line of ambulances and
00:01:49disoriented passengers, these are the rare images that are currently reaching
00:01:53Saudi Arabia, after the deadly strike that targeted
00:01:56the capital's airport on Saturday around 3 p.m., at least
00:02:00describe scenes of chaos with hundreds of injured and dozens of ambulances
00:02:04called urgently. The General Civil Aviation Authority
00:02:08indicated that the attack caused several injuries whose condition is currently
00:02:11being evaluated. It specified that airport operations were
00:02:14temporarily suspended pending a complete evaluation of the damage and the
00:02:20how we close our Africa news verification of the safety of the facilities in coordination with the
00:02:22competent authorities. All flights to Riyadh were
00:02:25diverted or canceled. Later in the evening, the authorities
00:02:29reported the fall of a projectile near another airport, that
00:02:33of Dammam in the east of the
00:02:35explains to us, under the kingdom. These attacks, which have not been claimed, are
00:02:38attributed to the Houthi rebels from Yemen who oppose the Yemeni
00:02:41government forces supported by Saudi Arabia and who
00:02:45launched a lightning offensive in September, strengthening their grip on
00:02:48the strategic Bab el- Mandeb Strait. In recent
00:02:51days, the scale and frequency of attacks targeting Riyadh has
00:02:55increased. The city's airport has already been targeted twice this
00:02:58week, several people. have been killed and injured. To counter the
00:03:02Houthi, the Saudi kingdom has been seeking military assistance from its American ally for
00:03:05weeks without success. Donald Trump remained
00:03:09vague on the subject Saturday in front of
00:03:12journalists. Have you decided to join the Saudi
00:03:15strikes? It's possible, we'll see. How soon
00:03:18? We just heard about the attack, we're going to make a decision and act very
00:03:21quickly. These strikes on Riyadh occur shortly
00:03:26verification of before the annual
00:03:27use it for astronauts, large conference on investment in the kingdom in October, which attracts
00:03:31visitors from all over the world.
00:03:34And in the Strait of Hormuz this time, a tanker was hit by a projectile, which declared a
00:03:38fire on board according to the British Navy monitoring center, the crew
00:03:42was able to be secured but no information is available on potential damage to
00:03:46the environment. And then a furious Donald Trump
00:03:50also attacked Vladimir Zelensky this Saturday, saying it is time for
00:03:53Ukraine to have a new president to end the conflict with
00:03:57Russia. Let's first listen to Donald Trump and then look at the
00:04:01to scams around land and reactions.
00:04:04be very broadly explained, space Zelensky could have resolved this conflict many times over and he
00:04:08chose not to do so. You know what I
00:04:11suggest? I suggest that Ukrainians find a new leader
00:04:15who can make deals. Zelensky could have made many and he didn't
00:04:19do it. The
00:04:21twice our weight again, this is the end of Europeans reacted strongly to this new jousting from the American president, but also to
00:04:25the US-Russia agreement announced on Friday, which consists of
00:04:28deliveries of Russian diesel to global markets to lower prices, despite Western
00:04:32sanctions against Moscow, Emmanuel Macron and Andy Burnham
00:04:36reiterated their support for Kyiv, Leo
00:04:38Pejar. After Donald Trump's remarks about his
00:04:42Ukrainian counterpart, expressions of support for Volodimir Zelenski were not
00:04:46right, welcome to your African news long in coming. British Prime
00:04:47rallies behind the head of Minister Andy Burnham,
00:04:50a key supporter of Ukraine, expressed his full
00:04:53solidarity. A call for a change of Ukrainian president
00:04:56also very badly received in Ukraine, particularly by the party of...
00:05:03As head of an opposition party, I have only one answer to that, we
00:05:07act according to the Ukrainian constitution, and this decision
00:05:10belongs to no one else.
00:05:13Only the Ukrainian people decide who they will elect and
00:05:16when. Volodimir Zelenski can also count on the
00:05:20support of the European Union, which continues to stand united behind him. The
00:05:2427 also severely criticized the controversial agreement on
00:05:27Russian diesel between the United States and Russia, a
00:05:30delivery of 300,000 tons of diesel as early as October to American
00:05:34territory and to the global market. For the head of European
00:05:37diplomacy, Kaya Kalalas, this agreement provides Moscow
00:05:40the war, Russian expenses have killed
00:05:44more than 80 Ukrainian civilians in 2 days, in addition, it has
00:05:48intensified its attacks that target
00:05:51allies. There is no question of easing pressure on
00:05:55Russia right now, and Europe will not do it. The European
00:05:58Union promises to strengthen its sanctions against Moscow.
00:06:02On Monday, it will add 1600 names to the blacklist of individuals and
00:06:06entities targeted by these measures.
00:06:09In the climate chapter in the southern United States. Isaias killed at
00:06:13least four people, it was a hurricane, the first of the season, since
00:06:17downgraded to tropical storm, it hit the coasts of the Gulf of Mexico,
00:06:21notably Alabama and Florida, tropical rains are
00:06:24also expected in the coming hours and a rise in water levels remains a concern,
00:06:28hundreds of thousands of users are also without
00:06:30electricity,
00:06:34and then data center or not data center, the establishment of the largest
00:06:38data center in Europe on the land of Sénart east
00:06:41of Paris divides. They say: there are those who are for and who want to accelerate the
00:06:45process so as not to undergo the rather long
00:06:47regulation, and those who are concerned about the environmental
00:06:50consequences of the project, so are the two visions
00:06:53irreconcilable what can the project bring,
00:06:57Anne Silvin's explanations for France
00:06:592.
00:07:01It's a corner of the countryside south of Paris,
00:07:05here is Fouju, a small town of 650
00:07:08souls, it is there that the largest data center in Europe should
00:07:12emerge, costing 50 billion euros, we
00:07:16recreated it by artificial intelligence from the
00:07:20promoter's documents, 11 buildings, 90
00:07:23hectares, a gigantism that worries
00:07:27this resident who has been living a few meters away for
00:07:30years, she will have all the disadvantages, all the
00:07:33pollution and nothing else, because
00:07:37to cool the site, no water is needed, but hundreds
00:07:41of air conditioners. which should release, among other things,
00:07:44PFAS, these eternal pollutants, bad
00:07:47news for her who tends her vegetable garden, everything will circulate, everything will
00:07:51infiltrate the soil, I can't anymore, it's the end
00:07:55of the vegetable garden, I guess so, the site
00:07:58would also consume the electricity production of a nuclear
00:08:01reactor, its neighbor fears the
00:08:04creation of a heat island, 2 degrees
00:08:07more according to an American study, given the heatwave and
00:08:10given climate change, well, that... won't help, it's true, the
00:08:14things. The project, launched more than a year ago, with
00:08:18great fanfare and supported by the Élysée, is already at the
00:08:21sanitation works stage. For its promoter, all environmental
00:08:24precautions have been taken and he refutes the
00:08:28figure of 2 degrees more heat, according to an internal
00:08:31investigation. The processing chips emit significant
00:08:35heat uh, however, there will
00:08:38be no heat island as demonstrated by the studies.
00:08:42An increase at the edge of the site of less than half a degree, on the
00:08:46other hand, this heat is useful, it must be reused, and that's
00:08:49why we have the commitment to channel this heat to the edge of the
00:08:53site and make it available for use by individuals and
00:08:57industrialists, but that's not enough to convince these associations
00:09:00who denounce serious attacks on the environment and biodiversity,
00:09:04they have filed appeals, anger in
00:09:07Fouju then, but also in Château or
00:09:10Le Bourget, the opposition against... these data center projects is
00:09:14increasing, thirty in France out of 104 currently
00:09:18being deployed, but these elected officials in Fouju, welcome with
00:09:21enthusiasm the project which could bring in millions of euros in
00:09:25tax revenue and up to 100 jobs, yes
00:09:28for Lacine, for the region, for the nation, for
00:09:31Europe, today it is an attractiveness and it
00:09:35will necessarily have repercussions on the local
00:09:38economy, some deputies are asking for a
00:09:41moratorium on... for the construction of these data
00:09:44centers,
00:09:46she returns from space Sophie à Dono is back on European soil, it was her
00:09:50first public appearance since her landing on Thursday off the coast of
00:09:53California, it happened at the European Astronaut Center in Cologne, her
00:09:57speech was punctuated by tears of joy, a lot of emotion to
00:10:00testify about her journey, returning to Earth, she explains, is
00:10:04not so easy to live with, watch,
00:10:08standing, but still shaky that Sophie Adno set
00:10:11foot on European soil, supported by
00:10:14doctors, she did not lose her smile, applauded by her
00:10:18relatives and colleagues, she spoke, her eyes filled with
00:10:21tears, sorry for the emotion.
00:10:26A lot of emotions,
00:10:30humor,
00:10:33it's funny to have tears flowing downwards, I haven't been used to that for 8
00:10:37months,
00:10:40not used to motion sickness and seasickness that seized her
00:10:44in the first seconds, on Thursday upon her
00:10:47return, being propelled into
00:10:50space, that was a piece of cake for me, but then coming back to
00:10:56easy. 400 km from Earth,
00:11:00Sophie Adno says she took a step back from the tensions
00:11:04affecting the planet. I looked for
00:11:07borders, I looked for divisions, I saw
00:11:11none. From her space odyssey, the 44-year-old
00:11:15Frenchwoman retains images, which she describes as
00:11:18sublime. I will remember all my life this
00:11:21absolutely incredible aurora that I shared
00:11:25a video of on social networks, uh, it was a dance, a dance
00:11:29of this green flow over the whole planet,
00:11:32you go through all the emotions, sometimes it's intense
00:11:36euphoria, of all this
00:11:38beauty, and sometimes it just
00:11:42grabs you, during these 8 months in
00:11:45zero gravity, she admits not always feeling in her
00:11:48place, particularly during the fires in Gironde which affected
00:11:52her family, the real difficult moments are... it's when something happens
00:11:56to loved ones and you're far away and then there's a moment
00:11:59when you think, what am I doing here ? Contemplating the
00:12:03five continents from above strengthened her conviction, the urgency
00:12:06is to preserve the earth. We see
00:12:09the effects of climate change, but we see them, it's impressive, the
00:12:13lakes that are dried up, the Aral Sea that is
00:12:16shrinking, Sophie Adno will now re-tame
00:12:20the earth, 3 weeks of intensive rehabilitation
00:12:23to rebuild her muscles await her, and
00:12:26listening to Sophie Aneno talk about her life in space and with that about weightlessness, and
00:12:30you have to train a lot for that, for example by performing
00:12:34parabolic flights that allow you to simulate 0G, that's what our
00:12:38reporter Sylvain Rousseau did, who went to the
00:12:41Cnes center in Bordeaux where the
00:12:44laboratory plane is located, watch his report. I am in
00:12:48Bordeaux and I am preparing to board this plane, an Airbus A310
00:12:52modified by Novespace, it is no longer so much a plane but
00:12:55a laboratory whose purpose is to conduct
00:12:59scientific experiments in weightlessness.
00:13:02a parabolic flight, as its name indicates, the plane makes
00:13:07parabolas, it first climbs at a 40° angle, everything weighs extremely
00:13:10heavy and when the injection sounds, well, that's it, we are in
00:13:13weightlessness, it is at this moment that the experiments can begin,
00:13:17experiments which for some are also intended to be tested later in the
00:13:21space station, this is the first phase of... test injection, that means we inject
00:13:25the plane on this portion of orbital arc which allows us to find
00:13:28ourselves in weightlessness and it is a principle of parabolic
00:13:32flight that allows these experiments to be placed in a situation
00:13:35impossible to recreate which is very useful for scientists because it allows to
00:13:39reveal phenomena that are masked by
00:13:42gravity, this plasma will be used to heal
00:13:45wounds, the final idea of testing it in 0g is precisely
00:13:49to see if it is possible to
00:13:52it allows... to carry less cream and only have
00:13:56gas and electricity, 31 parabolas of 22 seconds,
00:13:59everything will float and that's why everything is fixed to the ground, that computers, that all
00:14:03the equipment is protected, there are also experiments that have a real concrete
00:14:06application on Earth, we are of course thinking in particular of medicine and biology, we
00:14:10deal with medical emergencies in
00:14:13a weightless situation, the goal
00:14:17is if there is respiratory distress to avoid orotracheal intubation which
00:14:20is quite invasive and already quite technical on Earth, we work
00:14:24on the capacities of... the inner ear, a malfunction when gravity is modified to
00:14:29sickness, the sickness we know in astronauts, and by extension,
00:14:33if we could explain it and treat it, we could also quite
00:14:37easily transmit that to terrestrial
00:14:38motion sickness,
00:14:41and pull out, already 22 seconds of weightlessness, we weigh
00:14:46the parabola, end of
00:14:49this news, thank you for watching, stay tuned, a new news
00:14:52edition will be back in 15 minutes.
00:15:08You are on France 24 and you are
00:15:11tonight, anti-immigrant violence continues
00:15:15in South Africa despite the government's
00:15:18announcement of the withdrawal of a circular on asylum
00:15:21applications, which has not appeased the anger of protesters.
00:15:27Also in the headlines, intensified fighting in South
00:15:30Sudan, more than 70 dead in inter-communal
00:15:33violence, security forces claim
00:15:37to have regained control of the
00:15:39city,
00:15:41buying land, building one's house, investing a lifetime's
00:15:45savings and discovering that this land has already been sold to
00:15:49someone else, in Africa, land disputes can turn into a
00:15:52nightmare, fake documents, multiple sales, contested
00:15:56customary rights, how to secure property
00:15:59and can one really trust land titles, this is our focus this
00:16:03Saturday evening with lawyer Pierre
00:16:05Jimis.
00:16:10We open this news with new anti-immigrant demonstrations in
00:16:14South Africa where the government has announced the withdrawal of a
00:16:17circular on asylum seekers, but the announcement has not
00:16:20appeased the anger of protesters, explanations by Laurent
00:16:24Bersécher.
00:16:28Armed with sticks, protesters marched through the streets of
00:16:33the police. A new rally after the violent events
00:16:37that broke out on Thursday to denounce the presence of
00:16:41migrants in South Africa. We no longer want
00:16:44Somalis in our communities. We no longer want them in Soweto, they must
00:16:47return to their country.
00:16:50All these people came here illegally. We should put them
00:16:53in prison instead of regularizing them.
00:16:57For several months, xenophobic South African groups have been demanding the departure
00:17:00of undocumented foreigners
00:17:04accused, notably, of stealing jobs. Tensions
00:17:08escalated further at the end of September following a directive
00:17:13to accept all asylum applications, including those from people who arrived
00:17:17illegally in South Africa. The announcement had
00:17:20rekindled the anger of protesters, leading to
00:17:23violent rallies in several major cities this week:
00:17:27burnt cars, assaulted migrants and looted
00:17:31stores. Faced with the pressure, the government announced on Friday
00:17:34that it would withdraw the directive. The implementation of this directive immediately
00:17:41led to serious consequences, the processing of asylum
00:17:44applications became saturated in a few days and some ministry
00:17:48agents were exposed to risks. At
00:17:52least four migrants have died since the start of the demonstrations about
00:17:566 months ago, fearing for their safety, tens
00:18:00of thousands of others have fled South Africa.
00:18:04of South Africa.
00:18:07We were talking here about these clashes that took place in the city
00:18:10of Rumbek, in South Sudan, clashes that
00:18:13caused panic among the population, many inhabitants fled,
00:18:17others remained holed up in their homes for much of Friday,
00:18:21we now know a little more about the violence that caused the
00:18:25death of at least 71 people, details from our
00:18:28regional correspondent Bastien
00:18:30Renouille.
00:18:32The fighting started outside the city of Rumbek, a particularly
00:18:35important city located in the center of South Sudan. It
00:18:39seems that two groups of heavily armed young shepherds
00:18:42from relatively close ethnic groups clashed, groups that
00:18:46have been experiencing tensions for a long time. So it's impossible to say what triggered the
00:18:50fighting this time, but it escalated. One of the two groups managed to
00:18:53gain the upper hand and enter the city of Rumbek. And this
00:18:57group managed to take control of this city for a few hours.
00:19:00According to witnesses present on site, there were many gunshots heard throughout
00:19:04the day and very many bodies in the streets. The city at least
00:19:0871 people were killed according to the government, including four
00:19:11soldiers, the soldiers who uh gradually throughout the day managed to
00:19:15advance in the city and regain control, UN
00:19:18peacekeepers were also deployed to protect
00:19:21the hospital and NGOs which are particularly numerous in
00:19:24Rumbek, so this is not the first time there has been an inter-tribal
00:19:28or inter-ethnic conflict in South Sudan, they are frequent in the
00:19:32country, this year it is the second time there have been mass killings in
00:19:36the country. At the beginning of the year, more than 169 people
00:19:39were killed in an inter-ethnic conflict in the north of the
00:19:43country, but this one is particularly worrying because the first
00:19:46election in the history of the world's youngest country is due to take place in
00:19:50December, how to organize an election if there are
00:19:53such tensions in the country, it will be difficult, many
00:19:57observers already doubted the possibility of organizing these elections and these
00:20:01new clashes make them doubt even more, many imagine
00:20:04that they will have to be postponed again. The
00:20:07PPACI publicly presented its social pact near Abidjan,
00:20:11a political project for the country intended to protect the most
00:20:15vulnerable, but other topics were imposed in the speeches,
00:20:19particularly the judicial woes of members of Laurent
00:20:22Gbagbo's party, the latter who was expected did not come to present
00:20:25his project, he was currently in
00:20:29Belgium. Jean Barrère on the red earth of
00:20:32Gonzaqueville, a popular district near Abidjan, the PPACI
00:20:36activists in blue. white came out in large numbers despite
00:20:40the heat and the delay in speeches, they were invited for a back-to-school
00:20:43meeting and the launch of the social pact, a political project desired by
00:20:47Laurent Gbagbo described as a political surge for... the country which aims to
00:20:51notably reduce inequalities, political
00:20:53action must have as its main
00:20:56objective to make the citizen happy, to
00:21:00put the human being at the center of all political action, whether it is the
00:21:03cost of living, whether it is health
00:21:07issues, well, the president has
00:21:10solutions, the PPACI will nevertheless not have been able to avoid the judicial
00:21:13issues it faces, the incarceration of one of its vice-presidents
00:21:17in September and the summons next Monday of... Bastien
00:21:20Djedane, one of Laurent Gbagbo's closest collaborators before the
00:21:24anti-terrorist unit. The latter spoke from the podium but preferred
00:21:27not to address the issue, simple precaution or real fear, the activists
00:21:31present this afternoon have the answer. We will not
00:21:34allow ourselves to be intimidated by this adjustment of the ruling power which has nothing to offer to the
00:21:38Ivorians. The country needs many things, the youth who do not
00:21:42work, the lack of jobs, poverty,
00:21:45family, prices that are rising, rising costs, all
00:21:48that. The
00:21:52freedom front, we are not free in our own country, we are not
00:21:55free, we are not free in our country, a remarkable
00:21:58absence during this meeting, that of Laurent Gbagbo who is currently resting in
00:22:02Belgium according to the party, the PPACI nevertheless assures that upon his
00:22:06return, the former president will himself defend his project before the
00:22:09population. Well, we'll stay in Abidjan to move on to our
00:22:13focus on land ownership, and in Côte d'Ivoire
00:22:16precisely, becoming a homeowner, as elsewhere, can sometimes turn
00:22:20into a nightmare in a country facing a deficit of more than 800,000
00:22:23housing units, the demand for land is very strong and some take advantage of this
00:22:27pressure to multiply scams, fake owners,
00:22:31non-existent land or sold to several people,
00:22:34practices that also affect the diaspora and can lead to long
00:22:38legal conflicts, the report from Abidjan by Makamara
00:22:42and Damien Koffi.
00:22:45Land scams claim many victims in
00:22:48Abidjan. This woman thought he was investing in real estate
00:22:52with complete security, but his project quickly
00:22:56turned into a nightmare, invested a little over
00:22:5930 million,
00:23:03and well, until then nothing, no news, I found myself at the
00:23:06police station, I even had a stroke,
00:23:10and I still bear the consequences, so that's
00:23:13where my conduct came from, the
00:23:17modus operandi of these scams is well-oiled. This gentleman
00:23:21who has already sold land to several people
00:23:25cover of anonymity, how one of these systems works,
00:23:29when the procedure is done generally it takes a lot of
00:23:33time and during this procedure we encourage the client to
00:23:37pay quickly to reserve and once the client pays
00:23:40uh afterwards we leave them and attack another
00:23:43person and that way we recover the
00:23:46maximum amount of advances on...
00:23:51in Abidjan, social networks have become a real real estate
00:23:54showcase, land advertisements are multiplying, targeting
00:23:58the diaspora. Faced with this reality,
00:24:02firms offer solutions. What should
00:24:05reassure the subscriber is that
00:24:08they are accompanied by a law firm, they have
00:24:12legal advice that will be provided, the
00:24:16the authenticity of the documents that potential sellers will
00:24:20transmit to them, the accompaniment with
00:24:24notaries, in any case all files will be
00:24:27followed. In Côte d'Ivoire, land pressure remains
00:24:31strong. From January to September,
00:24:344396 conflicts were
00:24:37recorded, and the challenge remains immense.
00:24:41Securing 23 million hectares of land and more than
00:24:448600 villages.
00:24:48And to go further into this. more dedicated
00:24:51real estate in Africa, we received earlier Master Pierre Dimis, he
00:24:55is an international business lawyer and founder of
00:24:58PKD Conseil which notably supports real estate
00:25:02projects in Côte d'Ivoire, let's listen to an excerpt from our
00:25:05focus. Where he has a point is that there are no
00:25:09real specialized actors in, I would say, real
00:25:12estate law, it's a very interesting market, it's a market that
00:25:15requires, apart from notaries, where
00:25:18we need to raise awareness. inform, communicate so that the population
00:25:22which is supposed to, I would say, no one is supposed to be ignorant of the law, but which is
00:25:26supposed to, I would say, benefit from, I would say, communication, awareness
00:25:29so that we know who the real actors are, but then
00:25:33what document really protects the buyer? The land
00:25:36title, the land title, the land title, the definitive document that goes through all the
00:25:40procedures that allows one to say I have the land title,
00:25:44the land title. There are other documents which are the definitive constitution order,
00:25:48the CD in Côte d'Ivoire. country and then there are other documents which
00:25:52are more or less complex and it is this complexity or this, I would say,
00:25:55legal insecurity of certain documents that allows real
00:25:59estate stands which are sometimes private accessions, we cannot...
00:26:02cannot sell a property and forget with a private deed,
00:26:06the law prohibits it, it is necessarily by a notarized deed that allows one
00:26:10to sell a property of interest like a
00:26:13real estate property, that is important precisely for those who
00:26:16are listening. The problem is also not just fraud, there is
00:26:19also the issue of registers that are sometimes incomplete, administrations
00:26:23that do not always communicate with each other. Why do
00:26:26states actually have so much trouble with this issue? How do you explain it? I
00:26:30explain it because you know, uh, I was saying recently, take
00:26:34Mauritius, Mauritius was, I would say, an English
00:26:38colony. When you go to Mauritius, the cadastres retrieve a very
00:26:41precise, very clear cadastre, I would say,
00:26:45of who are the owners of land properties. We have, in
00:26:49West Africa, several owners. The state is not
00:26:52the owner, like in China, of the land, these are village communities. So we have
00:26:56village land owners, private land owners.
00:26:59So between, I would say, the customary code. between customary law and
00:27:03civil law, there are interactions that allow the
00:27:07land registry to be done slowly and we
00:27:10are not, we are countries that gained independence in the 60s, so
00:27:14it's quite difficult between two titles, land title and
00:27:18rural title. Follow the entirety of this
00:27:21fascinating focus on these
00:27:24real estate and the focus and real estate
00:27:27and land in Africa precisely on our website of course and on our
00:27:31WhatsApp page. And we end with these images of the parade
00:27:35organized by Patrimoine Galin for its 3rd edition, this Senegalese festival
00:27:39set up shop in Paris at the foot of the Eiffel Tower,
00:27:42objective: to highlight the history and great
00:27:46figures of Senegalese heritage, especially among the
00:27:49diaspora living in France. Let's listen to them interviewed by Julia
00:27:52Goganheim,
00:27:54it's a moment of reconnection created to give the opportunity
00:27:58to the children of the diaspora to embody,
00:28:01to love, and to preserve their culture. The
00:28:04children who were born here in France, in Europe, in the United States, they don't know their
00:28:08history, that's why we are here to tell it, what was there
00:28:12yesterday, how we dressed, what we ate,
00:28:16how the cohabitation that existed between
00:28:19us, and that's
00:28:22broadcast, thank you to all those who followed us all over the world and tonight
00:28:26in particular from Abidjan to Rumbek, passing through Durban, stay with us because
00:28:29the news continues on France 24.
00:29:43one night,
00:29:47millions of votes,
00:29:51an election that can change everything, when
00:29:54America votes, the world
00:29:56watches,
00:29:59America's choice, the event to experience on... France
00:30:0224.
00:30:08Hello everyone, welcome to this new edition of 2 à la une weekend
00:30:12on France 24, it's October 11th, on the agenda:
00:30:15the deadly attack against Riyadh International Airport,
00:30:18an attack attributed to Yemeni Houthi fighters who are waging
00:30:22a war against Saudi Arabia and vice-versa, at least
