5:00 am
masroor biswas announcer: this is al jazeera. hello, welcome to the al jazeera newshour, i'm elizabeth prarn am in doha. coming up in the next 60 minutes - up all night delegates reach a climate change deal in peru. critics say it doesn't go far enough. >> kurdish forces say they made advances against i.s.i.l. in the syrian border town of kobane anti-government protests
5:01 am
across the country in haiti japan heads to the poll in a snap election. shinzo abe says it's a referendum on his economic policies. delegates at a climate conference in lima agreed on a deal two days later on scheduled. the environment groups slammed it as a weak and ineffectual compromise. >> it lays the way for talks in paris in 2015. it asks countries to submit a plan by next year to tackle emissions. talks went over the original deadline after developing nations said rich countries should do more to pay for the fight against climate change. >> allow me to tell you this deal is not perfect, but respects the conditions of the
5:02 am
parties, and is based on what has been proposed. with this text we are all winners, no exceptions. i heard from all of the groups and have the assurance that with this we are all winners. jane thornton is head of climate earth and an environment lawyer and joins us from london. good to have you with us. what do you make. agreement reached? is it ambitious enough given the optimism that there was? >> well, it's important to recognise that a global climate change agreement is the hardest thing the world has will tried to do. so in lima the first block was put in place, which is that now almost 200 countries agreed that they may make substantial greenhouse gas emission cuts. that's the first time this has happened. china, the united states and india were never agreeing the cuts. they have agreed the cuts. everywhere is in the new,
5:03 am
agreeing in principle on what needs to go forward. things are moving rapidly. does work need to be done before the paris agreement. of course. it's important to see how much movement has been made here. in 2009, and the end of the copenhagen meeting, the world was depressed as to whether agreement could be reached. here we are seeing a building block. >> a sticking block before reaching the agreement is developing nations not wanting to be penalized for wanting to industrialize. don't they have a point, and how do you get past that? >> developing nations have a great point. and what is going to be an noirningt to work on -- important thing to work on between now and next year in paris is to figure out how to transfer enough wealth and technology so the developing
5:04 am
nations can improve the economies and adapt to climate change. now, this is, however, a great opportunity, if you see it the right way. in order to build a global civilisation that will survive climate change, we'll have to build an equitable world. this is the opportunity to do that. >> what else needs to happen before now in paris for nations it commit to a binding agreement on cutting emissions, and once countries commit, how do you make them do it? >> well, in addition to the wealth question that we were talking about, there's a couple of other things that need to be worked op before and at paris. one is for a system to continue to address so merch decreases carbon emission, and one is to monitor that. we need to compare apples and
5:05 am
apples in each country. some countries will be assertive about being transparent with what is going on. beyond that, how do you enforce an agreement internationally. well, it's by essentially agreeing to mutual coercion, ethical coercion. that's the way international agreements can be enforced. if we make the agreements, we'll want to do the right thing. now that china has committed to very serious cuts, i'm interested to see whether, you know, when i was a boy and lived in the united states, the soviets sent up spud nick, and the competition between them doing that and the united states meant that the united states eventually went to the moon. if china makes serious changes, and i believe they are going to do that, then the united states and other countries might get into a competition with them to do the right thing.
5:06 am
>> jane thornton of climate earth, lawyer from london, thank you for your time. >> thank you kurdish forces in kobane say they have made advances against fighters from the islamic state of iraq and levant. these are live pictures from the town, the scope of heavy fighting for months. the city is on the border with turkey. let's go to our correspondent bernard smith, who is joining us from istanbul. what are you hearing about what is happening in kobane? >> well, i.s.i.l. now have been left with - remain, we understand, in the east of kobane, and have an eastern supply line there. the east of the city is where they've been the strongest, where they've first went in now, three months ago when they started to try to take control of kobane. the syrian kurdish fighters
5:07 am
pretty much took a lot of the south of kobane. i.s.i.l. fighters used to have about four districts in the area, and are now left with part of one neighbourhood, and they have lost a supply line there. so i.s.i.l. - the y.p.g. fighters say they have advanced in the southern part of the city. so that is a strategic success for them. but this fight has ebbed and flowed for three months, actually. much of kobane, drayed flattened by car bombs and air strikes. there's not a lot of kobane left. i.s.i.l. is still in remain of the eastern part of the city. yes, an advance for the y.p.g. fighters, but still a lot of work to be done. >> thank you for that. that's our correspondent bernard smith joining us from istanbul
5:08 am
the iraqi army says it killed more than 100 i.s.i.l. fighters across anbar province in the last 24 hours. [ gunfire ] there has been fighting in ramadi, haditha and a border crossing. coalition air strikes and security forces are being backed by tribesman on the ground. anbar has a mostly sunni population against i.s.i.l. >>. the u.k. is planning to send hundreds of thousands to iraq to battle i.s.i.l. british defense secretary says the deployment will be primarily focussed on training local forces. 50 british soldiers are there training the iraqi and kurdish army. it's not clear how many soldiers are present. around 3,000 more have been authorised. around 1500 soldiers have been
5:09 am
authorised. let's get more from that from jane arraf in baghdad. we'll get to the question of forces in a moment. jane, firstly, what is the latest on the fighting in anbar. >> it is fierce fighting and is the fight for the heart of a sunni population. a suicide humvee detonated an army barracks, 70km west of ramadi. eight soldiers are dead. soldier were packed, it was detonated in the last few days. obvious the past month, there has been more than a dozen of these humvees used in the attacks. it's part of the problem, part of what anti-i.s.i.l. forces are facing. tribes that are fighting them do not have the weapons to deal
5:10 am
with things like that. towns that have fallen to i.s.i.l. - officials have been there that said that the police had to retreat because of lack of ammunition. this morning i.s.i.l. fighters are a kilometre away from the governing council headquarters in ramadi, and the capital relieved of duty, its governor recovered from a shrapnel wound and will meet next week to decide who the new governor will be. >> there's a meeting of government and coalition forces in iraq. where will that lead? >> well, the british forces said they'll send several hundred trainers here, and the emphasis is on trainers. we are not expecting, nor the iraqi government expecting or willing to see what we keep referring to as boots on the ground, british or american soldiers out there fighting with units.
5:11 am
that may be further into the future. from the british statement, it's clear that these trainers, the military experts will remain on the bases. they mentioned four, three around baghdad. these are expected to be some bases react vited when american and u.k. troops were here, involved in previous training attempts. this is not a new effort, a lot of this is trying to teach the forces here, particularly special forces in the lead, all the things they did not learn the first time or have forgotten, but is crucial now. >> that's our correspondent jane arraf joining us from baghdad now the prime minister of haiti has resigned. his decision announced after months of protests in the capital porto prince. demonstrators are call -- parta prince. demonstrators are calling for
5:12 am
elections. kim vinnell has the latest. >> reporter: anger on the streets of haiti. anti-government protests swept across the capital and the country, and now one of the demonstrators demands is being met. early on sunday the prime minister announced he will step down. his resignation was predicted after president michel martelly told reporters that he was ready to make a sacrifices. protesters are angry over what they say is government corruption. and that there hasn't been an election in haiti for three years. the president blames the opposition for delaying the vote. >> translation: the government was supposed to organise the elections, for four years, all they did was corruption. they ruined the country, that's why we are in the streets, we'll be in the streets every day. we are asking the government to take the president with them, we
5:13 am
are the ones that put them in power. >> reporter: without new elections, parliament will be dissolved. many believe the resignation will not be enough to satisfy the people. >> translation: no magic wands can save lamont or martelly, there's no way they can be saved. >> the unrest is caused by a deadlock that even lamont's resignation will not break. haiti will be without a functioning government or a prime minister japan's prime minister is hoping for a landslide victory in a snap election expected to give him the mandate to continue economic reforms. shinzo abe called the vote after japan slipped into recession and his popularity dropped. shinzo abe is certain to win and his rivals are seen as weak
5:14 am
contenders let's two to our correspondent, harry faucet. joining us live from tokyo. polls close soon. as mentioned, a record-low turn out. >> that is expected. polls close in 45 minutes. the recent report as they've been assessing the turn out was that it's nearly 6% less than it was at the same time two years ago when shinzo abe came to power in 2012. when we were at a polling station on sunday, not much enthusiasm to be detected. people do not feel there's a great deal to vote for, two years after the last election. they are not convinced this is a necessary one. and the opposition is not putting up much of a fight. the former government and the democratic government of japan that was voted out. that has descended into some disarray since.
5:15 am
the other opposition parties are all very atomized. a lot of people are voting for shinzo abe, but almost because they don't feel as much of a choice, and he deserves a bit more of a chance to put through policies of economic recovery. this is a good opportunity to give the opposition a pasting, to extend the term in office and give themselves time to get the reforms through. >> so much has been made of economic reforms, and there has been a referendum. what are the other issues, and are voters getting a say on issues in this election. is it about that even? >> a lot of them don't feel they are having much of a say. there's not much of an opposition to call itself that, to vote for. in terms of the other issues, abe is very much framing this as
5:16 am
a referendum on his economic policy, but he has other ambitions and policy goals, he's long harboured an intention of revising the japanese constitution, and moving it away from its pacifist nature. in the first two years he re-ipp interpreted that composition, where japan can come to the defense of an ally, not in of the last gasp trying to save its own territory. that is one significant move. it's unlikely, analysts think, that he'll have, (a), enough votes and enough public for make changes on that. four years is a long time. as well as that, nuclear power has been barely mentioned in the campaign. a key policy goal is to restart the nuclear power stations next we are. one voter we spoke to told us
5:17 am
that the people in fukushima will certainly not feel they have much of a voice in this election. >> harry fawcett, our correspondent in tokyo still to come on al jazeera, we are in bangladesh, where people are using their bare hands to clean up after a huge oil spill. building on the moon sounds like science fiction. it's closer than we may think in sport, an amateur football team from new zealand paves the way to bombing world champions, jo has the details. houthis are pushing for more control over northern yemen. many have been killed.
