 Hello, you're watching the International Daily Roundup by People's Dispatch where we bring you some of the top stories from around the world. Let's take a look at today's headlines. Iran says significant progress made on nuclear deal. United Nations Court resumes hearings on Rohingya genocide case. Chile's Constitutional Convention debates new text. We speak to Roman Vega on the key challenges facing health activists today. We begin with Iran which has stated that significant progress has been made in the talks to revive the 2015 nuclear deal. However, Foreign Minister spokesperson Said Khatibzadeh has said that the remaining issues are the hardest. Reports have suggested that the ongoing round of talks in Vienna could yield a result in the coming weeks. Reuters reported last week that a U.S.-Iranian deal was taking shape which included faces of mutual steps. The broad objective was to lift the sanctions against Iran in exchange for limits on its nuclear activities. Other steps including the unfreezing of $7 billion of Iranian funds held in South Korea and the release of Western prisoners. The new agreement reportedly includes the U.S. granting waivers on sanctions of Iran's oil sector instead of outright removing them. Issues also remain over Iran's demand for guarantees that the U.S. will not withdraw from the deal. In a separate development, Iranian lawmakers presented six conditions for the revival of the nuclear deal on February 20. These were part of a statement addressed to President Abraham Raisi by 250 legislators. They have argued that Iran must set clear red lines which include guarantees for non-vitrol. The statement says that the United States and other parties must pledge that they will not resort to the snapback mechanism. Legislators have also reiterated the demand for the lifting of all sanctions and a verification process after which Iran could scale back its nuclear advances. In our next story, the International Court of Justice or the ICJ has resumed proceedings on a case related to the genocide of Rohingya Muslims in Myanmar. In August 2017, the military launched a brutal campaign against supposed armed groups in the Rakhine state. Conservative estimates placed the death toll of the ensuing violence at over 10,000. According to Human Rights Watch, 200 Rohingya villages were burned down. The United Nations mission in Myanmar stated that over 700,000 people had been forced to flee. It stated that the military had carried out mass killings and gang rapes with a court genocidal intent. The United Nations recommended that military chief Min Ong Lai and five other generals be prosecuted for these crimes. The case before the ICJ was brought by the Gambia which said that Myanmar had reached the 1948 Genocide Convention. In 2019, now ousted leader Ong San Suu Kyi defended the military's actions in court and asked that the genocide allegations be dismissed. In a major ruling in 2020, the court imposed emergency provisional measures on Myanmar. The legally binding order required the country to prevent genocidal violence against the Rohingyas. The proceedings scheduled for this week will focus on the preliminary objections raised by Myanmar. The military junta which is led by Min Ong Lai is expected to present the country's case. Next we go to Chile, where the Constitutional Convention has opened debate on a new Magna Carta. The 155 member body convened its first plenary session last week. Among the key articles approved in the declaration that Chile is a regional, plural, national and intercultural state. It recognizes that the country is made up of territorial entities within a framework of equity and solidarity. The article was approved with 112 votes in favour and 34 against. It has changed the definition of Chile as a unitary state that is part of the current Pinochet-Ira constitution. The convention has also approved text which states that Chile's territorial organization is formed of autonomous regions, indigenous territorial autonomies and special territories. It has also established that peoples and nations pre-existing the state must grant free, prior and informed consent on matters which affect their constitutional rights. These articles are a crucial development given that indigenous peoples are not recognized in the existing text. The Constitutional Convention has also approved 10 articles related to the country's justice system. All bodies and persons involved in the judicial process must ensure equality, parity and a gender perspective. Chile's Constitutional Convention emerged out of the 2019 social uprising mass protests. It must present the final draft of the new Magna Carta by July 4th. This will be followed by a public referendum which will be overseen by incoming President Gabriel Boric. And finally, we bring you an excerpt from a conversation with the Global Coordinator of the People's Health Movement, Roman Vega. He outlines the key challenges facing health activists today and the priorities moving forward. Let's have a look. In 2022, the challenges are huge. We will have to continue the resistance, the denunciation, the rejection of neoliberal policies in the global, regional and local plan. We must continue the struggles because the decisions of the World Health Organization have really been in favor of those who have been subjected to situations of inequality between countries and between the North and the South Global. This is a huge challenge that goes through the democratization of the decisions in the framework of the political contents of the OMS and the sectional of the OMS in each region. We will have to ask, for example, the sectional of the OMS, such as the Pan-American Organization of Health in the region of the Americas, that they are transparent, that they do not work around the interests created by the governments and the elites that they represent and that they have a greater commitment with the popular sectors, the workers, the indigenous populations, the women, the young people, the Afro-descendants who have lived the tragedy of this pandemic, the deaths, the infections and the economic, social sequels, of all this that this drama is so tremendous that we have lived in this time. We will have to do that, resist, look for changes in the policies of the World Trade Organization that is setting an agenda for the service of the interests of the big pharma, the complex that we call financial industrial medicine, co-linked in function to convert health into a business to accumulate capital. We will have to continue doing that. But at the same time, we have to raise, take advantage of the opportunity of economic, social and political crisis that we live in and of mobilization dynamics to seek changes, to deepen the changes, to transform the realities we have. What makes the movement of the people's health has to be done in that context. I think we are preparing precisely for this. We are deciding to develop a huge campaign claiming the right to access vaccines to health services. The transformation of health systems, understanding the relations between society and nature, that is to say, a focus linked to the determinants, to the social, economic, political determination of health, the relations of power behind those relations that inform what is happening in the framework of the crises that we have said that we are living. Thank you very much.
