we believe, and this is also what guterres said, the secretary general of the united nations in in the clip in the beginning, that the ocean beyond national jurisdiction is really the last tragedy of the commons . there are those who exploit it to the benefit of them but the detriment of all of us and our children's futures. so even though it's a few countries today that have the ability to go out and what they do is that they subsidize for example their high seas fishing fleets tremendously, it's very expensive to operate on the high seas, and they catch too much fish, they destroy important habitat, living space for marine creatures and they also catch a , lot of important species. large whales, for example. so yes it is just a few countries who have activity but it is in all of our interest and responsibility. laura: we know countries like australia, new zealand, blocs like the eu are in favor of this treaty. what about america and japan. are they on board with it? will: most countries are in favor of a treaty but the question is how strong it will be. greenpeace, environmental camp

guterres whether we can work further on, this is what gutierrez and erdogan both said in their press statements after the meeting with zelensky, i think they've really hope that they can find some kind of ceasefire, a possible way out of this crisis which is impacting on not only the region but the whole world. state media in somalia say security forces are trying to contain an attack on a hotel in the capital, mogadishu. the assault on the hayat began with the detonation of at least two car bombs followed by a fierce gunfight. dozens of guests and staff are reported to have been rescued. the islamist militant group, al—shabab, says it is carrying out the attack. you're watching bbc news, our top story: el shafee elsheikh, a former british member of the so—called islamic state group, is jailed for life for his role in the murder of western hostages. a man has died and a woman is in hospital after a shooting at a shopping centre in sweden. police cordoned off the emporia shopping mall in the southern city of malmo after around 20 shots were fired. police have arrested a teenage bo
