♪ >> hello and welcome to the news hour. from al jazeera news center here in do la, london. here are the top stories. i won't quit but i will talk. the thailand prime minister offers to meet with protesters as demonstration continue. >> we have the latest european news as thousands gather in ukraine and the national guard is ordered on the streets. and is it too much too young with text.

and life as a work in bangladesh. we'll have an investigation into the appalling conditions of the nation's leather goods. >> hello, the thai prime minister has gone on national television in a desperate bid to end days of protests. the violence appears to be worsening. two protesters were shot in confrontation with police and now they have started using rubber bullets against protesters. the latest from bangkok. >> reporter: a battle for control of thailand is being waged on two fronts. this time the rubbish truck was used to break through the concrete barriers elected by the police. it and it's occupants were forced into a quick retreat.

it seems some people on the streets are willing to go to extremes to achieve their goal. they want the government and the prime minister gone. the prime minister spoke to the media the day after speaking with the protest leader. she said she's willing to do anything to end the crisis. but the idea of an unelected council running the country is unconstitutional. >> after we met him we found he isn't interested in the resignation of the prime minister, nor does he want to dissolve the parliament. he wants me to return the power of the prime minister to the people. i don't know how we can proceed with this offer because this provision discuss not exist under constitution allah. it doesn't mean that we say no, but this negotiation we don't know how to make it happen. >> in the meantime the immediate aims of those fighting here are far clearer and more specific. >> in areas like this it is not a crowd dispersal operation.

it is a case of the protesters using whatever and doing whatever they can to push inside that area and the police are holding their lines. >> reporter: as well as tear gas, rubber bullets, and water canons laced with chemical is used. the protesters use are crude. they're using plastic bags against the gas so they don't breathe it in. >> that's what is happening on the ground. they're joining us from bangkok to show us what is happening. in particular with the arrest waters issued for the opposition leader that we saw in your report. >> reporter: yes, that's right. the leader of the anti-government protest movement already has an arrest warrant out for him for his role in encouraging protesters to sees government property basically

for trespassing. now a second one has been issued today for insurrection, a crime that if he were to be convicted of carries the maximum penalty of death. that arrest warrant was issued just hours before we saw another fiery speech were him on the stage for the supporters. there were suggestions that another meeting took place between him and the prime minister on stage. he said no such meeting took place. anthey'll focus all their attention on seizing the headquarters of the bangkok metropolitan police. it appears he seems to have given up on the house of the prime minister. >> it seems to be a fluid or obviously somewhat violent situation in thailand.

what happens next? >> well, yes, the violence continues, too, into monday evening at those two locations which are very close to each other in the suburbs of bangkok. one outside of government house and one outside of the headquarters of the bangkok metropolitan police. those are the two flash points at the moment for protesters and the police are squaring off. tomorrow i guess there are grave fears of what could happen tomorrow because of this fiery speech that has been issued by the leader of the protest movement saying that in fact, he will fight to the very end but he will succeed tomorrow in leading this group into the headquarters of the bangkok metropolitan police. even if he does that it is unclear what his next move will be. if he fails, what his next move will be. he keeps having these deadlines he says the government will fall by the end of sunday. that didn't happen. he issued another deadline of two more days. that expires by the end of day

tuesday. the deadlines keep being pushed out, and it appears this protest movement is beginning to run out of steam. meanwhile, the government led by the prime minister appears to be happy to bide this time to hold on to key facilities including government house and hope that this movement lost momentum. >> thank you, reporting from bangkok. well, thousands of protesters have laid siege to government buildings in ukraine. we have the latest on that. >> reporter: thanks so much. that's right. the government has ordered the national guard on to the streets to maintain order. demonstration versus been taking place for more than a week. yesterdayer more than 300,000 people took part in a protest, the largest since the orange revolution. we're live in kiev. david, over to you. >> reporter: yes, lauren, there have been several developments during the course of this day. the opposition leaders had been

meeting on independent square, and a trade union headquarters that they took over. they decided to call on president yanukovych to disso de his cabinet. they have no likelihood of winning that because president yanukovych holds the majority there. on the streets they've been reinforcing the barricades, the barricades originally used by the police to keep them out of independent square. also they've been taking action and blocking most of the government offices in and around kiev at the moment. i've been taking a look at the tactics. >> reporter: the protesters are now blockading the vie sal sensors of the machine in kiev, preventing civil servants going to work this morning.

slowly strangling the function of their demonstration. this woman said she wanteing to there so she could work. the protesters said no, we want a better life. this grandmother was told, no, nobody will let you through. a thick cord of riot police around the area. locked in consultations with advisers trying to device a strategy to combat the demonstrations that are threatening to unseat the president. now section was kiev are out of his control. the city's police chief has been suspended after the violent tactics used to evict the protesters were here. more prominent scouts are expected. there have been round table talks between the opposition parties and the government at the initiative of the parliamentary speaker here in

kiev. but the only thing that has come out of those talks is the demand for the cabinet to be dissolve. and coming from the three rings of the west of the ukraine was first to respond to the opposition's call for a nationwide strike. he runs a ski rental business with 20 employees. >> i cannot stand it. the police are under the control of yanukovych. >> reporter: the president is set to travel to china and russia in the coming days, but he'll be leaving behind him a country descending ever deeper in crisis. a crisis that president putin can do little to help him with. >> and new footage shows how violent the clashes were on sunday. the police are accused of using unnecessary violence when trying to break up the demonstration. those using tear gas and these pictures shows police kicking

protesters who were already on the ground and hitting them with battens. several were injured. >> what have she said about no one backing down on either side. >> reporter: there is not going to be an easy compromise, but there is one interesting development we've heard that president yanukovych, who is outside of his country's retreat not coming into kiev at moment has made a phone call with the president of the european commission, jose baroso. and baroso has told him he doesn't want to see any more violence. there should be restraint on both sides. and president yanukovych very interestinglied a asked him if he could send a delegation back the e.u. and discuss the whole free trade pact association deal once again.

and the president of the european commission has agreed to that. so signs there of some development, some pushing by the protesters, and has caused president yanukovych to open the door again to the european union. a very interesting development, and we don't know anyone more tha--anymore than that at the m. >> the report from the ukraine. that's all from me for now. but in a half hour's time we'll meet with people who are mapping italy's underground waterways hidden deep beneath rome. you. >> well, four people have been killed in a suicide attack in eastern afghanistan. a truck bomb went off outside a police station just south of the capitol kabul. and the taliban said it's

responsible. somali politicians have voted to remove the president from position. the prime minister has been there for just over a year. and they'll prepare for elections due in 2016. in neighboring kenya, they say the change is expected to bring a period of instability. >> some weeks ago the president asked the prime minister to step aside. i think this was largely in response what has been a crisis of confidence across somalia. they feel at a "t" hasn't made the kinds of strides forward that they expect from this administration. we've heard rumors of internal squabbles. he had no powers to dismiss the prime minister. the only way to get rid of him was through a vote of no

confidence, which is why we're seeing this now. i think we're in in a period of i can stability. the president has a period of 30 days to come up with a new prime minister, and then that prime minister has a further 30 days to nominate a cabinet. in theory this could go on for another two months. but the problem in somalia, whenever you have this competition of jobs there is often a period of security problems because of the various plans provoke security problems to improve their negotiating position. so it looks as though we're going to face a very serious period of political unrest and that could create some serious problems for security. >> investigators in the united states are trying to figure out what caused a passenger train to derail in new york. four people were killed and more 60 injured when the charges came off the track early sunday

behavior. it might help the relationship that is fit for true allies. >> it could not come at a more opportune time. some observers say china is forcing a transition in the region's power balance. one that has existed since the end of world war ii. >> until recently china didn't pose the capability to challenge the status quo. but over recent years it's military has grown in power, and i think that is why china has begun to challenge the regional order. the problems in the south china seas are such an example. >> the question is how to play their hand as china gives out mixed signals over the air defense zone. chinese media said on friday japan was the main target of its new zone. but the country's defense minister stated it's neither a no-fly zone nor territorial air space. how can joe biden discover
