defiance to the united states. >> our party can proudly declare the revolutionary armed power, we are ready to respond and defend the blue sky for the fairyland. >> to emphasize those words, the traditional display of goose stepping by the million strong armed forces. from abroad, military analysts were watching for anything non-traditional in the hardware that followed spotting new 300 millimeter artillery launchers and a inter continue mental missile which analysts believe to be a modification of one that debrewed in a another prayed three years ago. as far as north korea watchers were concerned was what it would say about the relationship between pyongyang and china. when a representative we want to beijing, he was very much publisidelined. on saturday, the story was very different. china had sent its 5th most senior party official, yo ye

yo yen shun, bearing a warm letter from the president, given the ultra vip treatment sharing the limelight with what seemed a public message that a receipted called alliance could be defrosting. one possible explanation, the decision to go along with chinese wishes by not marking this occasion with a long-range rocket launch. >> they would rather observe it and keep the launch as a deck of cards in case the relations with the u.s. and the south don't work out well and people's livelihood become difficult. they can use it to divert. >> reporter: there was nothing like dissatisfaction on show on saturday. months of rehearsals culminating in a show of mass devotion and an opportunity for north korea's leadership to send multiple messages at audiences at home and abroad. harry fawcett, al jazeera, seoul. >> we will talk to aidan carter

in modern korea -- i called that wrong in the first place. but looking at the pictures of the podium, the fact that china is there at a senior level, you believe is significant? >> i think that's the big news. i won't quite see -- they get better and bigger. wonderful precision. the political news, the difference is that relations with china have been very bad since kim jung un came to power. there had been no senior chinese visitor. we see number 5 guy. >> what has been done to change that? >> i think it's just that the chinese decided that this couldn't go any longer. they are still quite cross with north korea. at least the north koreans haven't tested a nuclear weapon but they have been lien to go south korea. the first chinese leader who

went to south korea before the north. he has warm relations the south korean president who the north koreans call all kind of sexist names. all along, they support them economically and they are obviously trying to rebuild the political relationship. >> on this 70th anniversary, one wonders why it is the one family, grandfather, father, son, has been able to maintain such a grip on north korean society when there have been -- deletes let's face it -- many attempts to unseat them, to get rid of them from within the country? >> they have. that's one of the abiding mysteries of north korea that make it fascinating as well as rather worrying. shall we say they tried extremely hard kim il sun. he watched the collapse of communism and the soviet union and eastern europe and its trans formation in china into something we don't think he

liked very much. he resolved that wouldn't happen. you can call it brainwashing but that's a paradox because now, we know that south korea ian soap operas, these weepy things, they are creeping in. we know from defect orders people take a risk. it's not people in north korea don't know there is an alternative. but somehow, whether they have the hearts and minds completely, i am not sure. i used to think it was the brave new world, now i think it's more like 1994 when no one was fooled but my goodness, they still put on a good show. >> you talk about the soap operas. there is suggestions that it is becoming a more consumerist society, people are wearing more modern clothes, there is an element of capitalism creeping in. can north korea last in this case as it is? >> well, i for many years, i was a north korea collapsist and it's still there and i am still here. and i have changed my tune. i think it can last. the capitalism thing is limited but the face of pyon yang has

changed. traffic jams t flights about 10 in south korea. you be careful about surface things and limited things but there is a lot of change but he has not grasped the china or vietnam model but you sort of let it rip in the countryside. he has not done that yet. >> appreciate your time. thank you. aden foster-carter. >> thank you. >> berlin, thousands have been taking part in a protest about a trade agreement. the concern of many is that this could allow big companies, international companies, to put profits much well before the public wellbeing. jonah hull has more from berlin. >> it may sound a bit dull, but if you live in europe or the united states, you ought to know about the trans atlantic trade

and investment partnership. it's an agreement currently being negotiated behind closed doors at the highest levels that aims to harmonize trans atlantic trade rules and standards. >> here it in berlin, tens of thousands arrived on the street because they think it's a bad idea. they are wary of what one campaigner called an all-out assault on european and u.s. societies by trans national companies. >> when it's concluded possibly next year, ttip, as it is known will create the world's largest free trade zone, a market of 800 million people that could add $100,000,000,000 a year to economic output on both sides of the atlantic. until practice, it could affect everything from jobs to your income, healthcare, to the food you eat, and there are many critics. i am not sure if it will happen all that weekly but my urgent advice to everybody who

wants rules for globalization is you can't be nervous when it comes to negotable toing with the motherland of globalization. as a european, you must consciously engage with this issue. >> we hear that the social standards, especially the standards for workers, will decrease. >> undermining our democracy and giving more power to big companies. >> you don't remember you don't believe what the government tells you? is the government telling you anything? >> they don't tell us enough and everything we have seen that has been leaked, it's looking bad. >> they argue in seeking parity between the eu and the u.s., all that will be achieved is mediocrity on this side of the atlantic, eroding stronger laws on food safety and the environment while on the other side, weakening traditionally stiffer financial regulations in the u.s. the winners, they say, big business and the banks. . >> that's not all. con vo versally, they say ttip

is being negotiated a trojan horse in the heart of our economies and lives. no one really knows what's inside. jonah hull, al jazeera, berlin. >> european union officials have announced that greece's first migrant processing center will open in the next 10 days. the creation of the so-called hotspot centers is part of the eu's plan to relocate 160,000 across the continent. the center will be followed by up to 4 on other islands. people will be registered, finger printed, being moved on to 1 of the 25 eu countries who have agreed to host them. italy and greece have warned they may have to build refugee camps if people aren't moved on xwribling enough. john tsoropalas. >> afghans driven by sectarian violence are searching for a new

home. they have made a temporary one on victoria square in central athens. >> because we do not have security, we don't have security, and you cannot work or have a job. in this case, we leave the count country. >> reporter: what is the danger that you faced in your town? >> so there are explosioning abound and suicide attack. >> european officials are worried that if refugees like these continue to cross external boardsers, europe ability to keep its internal borders open will fall apart and that would be the end of a signal achievement in european unification. >> we are envied around the world. with a single visa, you can travel across the european continent. >> that's why we have a collective responsibility to protect our external boarders. without the external borders, shengan cannot stand.

all current trees will revert to border controls and it would collapse in a matter of weeks. >> reporter: athensruns two camps for refugees and is considering using its old airport as an emergency facility to deal with possible surges of displaced people but greece says it will not become a concentration camp for hundreds of thousands. the european commission this year formed a plan to assist the flow of people in to europe, and that plan is taking shape this week. >> european union members have agreed to take 66,000 refugees from greece and italy this year. the plan is document them in a series of eu-run processing centers or hot spots, then relocate them by flying them directly from here rather than leaving them to trek through easteny on foot. >> greece is to construct six hot spots in the next month. the first is to operate next week on the eastern aegean

island of lesbos opposite turkey but with 400,000 arrivals this year alone, the numbers may prove too small. al jazeera, athens. >> stay with us if you can. the newshour continues. this is one of the stories we will look at: escalating violence in again each ahead of the the presidential election. we are off to bolivia for this year's climate change conference. and djokovic is going to be facing at the china open? stay with us, we will give you that and the rest of the sport.

>> we're in the "prairie state" yet we have such little of it left.

>> now old-school methods meet cutting-edge science... >> we've returned this iconic mammal to illinois. >> with a much bigger long-term benefit. >> grasslands have a critical role in climate change. >> it's exciting. >> techknow's team of experts show you how the miracles of science... >> this is what innovation looks like. >> can affect and surprise us. >> i feel like we're making an impact. >> awesome! >> techknow - where technology meets humanity. in the capitol, ankra, which has left 95 people dead. four palestinians, two teenagers have been killed in another day of violence across israel in the occupied territories.

five israelis including three police officers were injured in those incidents. as many as 41 people have been killed in a triple bomb attack on a market and refugee camp in, in chad in west africa. let's look at this peace rally which it looks like was targeted in the turkish capitol, ankara organized by the public workers' union and leftist groups including the pro-kurdish people's democratic party. >> that's the hdp. so far, nobody said they carried out the attack but accusations are rife. the hdp's co-founder said they were perpetrated by the state against the people. and critics have accused president erdouan of reigniting itfieding with the kurds with his ruling justice and development party in next month's election. hours after the blast, the kurdistan workers' party -- that is the pkk, declared a itemp

temporary cease-fire saying the groups hoping this will help to boost the hdp in the election. well, the prime minister of turksey spoke to the media after a meeting of security chiefs. >> we >> there is not a single citizen who doesn't share the deep sorrow of those who have lost their loved ones in this attack. we are in a period going towards anneelex. our democracy has been a targeted. i am offering my condolen dolco condolences to the families who lost their lives. there are strong indications two suicide bombers have been involved in these incidents. >> let's us talk to the the turk irwin lang trainer for the center for turkish studies. i want your opinion first of all, on whether the kurds were

the target here the pro-cardish party, hdp said the kurds were the target here while the rally was organized by several trade unions, we can say this was targeting civil society and democracy in a way. obviously this wasn't just about kurds but what happened here in this peace rally is that they were there. ironically, for peace, and when they were singing their peace songs, they were attacked. so maybe the main theme is the peace here. >> so the hdp says this was state-sponsored violence? >> yes. >> but there is another possibility here, and that is that isil, which hates turkey at the moment with an absolute vengeance would have simply show itt its reach goes across the

border from syria into turkey and specifically turkey's capitol. >> that's very true. there are claims that, there are definitely claims, but perhaps it's too extreme for the hdp to say that. perhaps too extreme for the government to blame the pkk for this attack. what we know is we had two other attacks in the past over the last two months and we don't know the perpetrators of these attacks. we don't know if it was exactly isis or the pkk or another terrorist group. so that's why we have many questions in our headed the argument is so political with awe are not able to get down to facts. >> ahead of elections, with the president able to talk about national unity, solidarity, determination, three of the phrases he has used this afternoon >> he in many ways will be seizing the i knowitiave and

able to say, listen. security is paramount. >> that's true but people are really concerned about their security at the moment and even a very planned, known rally like today we have had two attacks. and it's a very tension few months. it's been tense months and there have been clashes. >> so is there possibly going to be a backlash against the interior minister who said there were no security shortcomings at all? >> well, 86 people have been killed in the capitol of the country. i think we need to really, really look into that, what really happened in terms of

security he's kind of ruling that option out completelies i don't think it's beneficial for the debate we need to have. >> let's look at the election, back a little bit because the ruling party couldn't get a majority in the last election. that's why we are seeing this now, the pro-kurdish hdp did particularly well much what is the likely outcome in the wake of this and the other attacks when the turks go to the polls? >> the likely outcome would be very similar to, i think, and many, many pedolls show that it will be similar to the results of 7th of june elections. so, it's very difficult to see that there would be one part winning the majority. we don't know. there are concerns about

security. but the country is polarized. >> became obvious on the 7th of june. people voted for a coalition government. >> wasn't formed. it has been extremely unstable over the last few months. so, i think the result would be very similar. but the main concern is obviously the issue is we want the elections to take place. >> continued instability? >> yeah. >> thank you. >> thanks. >> voters in guinea are choosing their next president on saturday but the election campaign in this country and, in west africa has seen fighting between supporters of the ruling party and opposition activists. they are demanding change. paul tudurgen reports.

money to pay the wages of state employees. opposes say he hasn't ludics foreign investment. >> he is saying the white man left the country and they are not getting foreign invest orders and the price of diamond has dropped down. we are suffering since the sick came to the country. >> guinea has a rich supply of natural resources such as iron ore, boxite to make alum any more, gold and diamonds. >> ebola caused trouble, but today, ebola is almost finished. we have a lot of diamond reserves, but we can't do anything until investors have the courage to come to our country. we need to have a marketplace with international standards instead of having millions of dollars worth of smuggled out. >> as voters go to the polls on sunday, guinea's experiment with

democracy will face another test. dozens of international observers are monitoring the election, overseeing the second presidential poll after a history of dictatorships and corruption. paul trodergion, al jazeera. >> to bolivia, the country's president is hosting a climate change conference. this is all ahead of the u.n.'s meeting on the issue in paris later on this year. >> an attack of investment by big bids he claimed is at the route of many climate change problems. the u.n. secretary general ban ki-moon will address this year's people world conference on climate change. daniel schweimler at the conference opening ceremony. are you going to enlighten me and our viewers by telling us about something called a mother earth project. >> reporter: exactly that.

i left where the conference opened today. we have driven about 45 minutes to a town called bolabora, at 3,700 meters above sea level, and this is a project run by the proof incial government and the national government to try to introduce about three years ago to try to ensure that human beings, the people of bolivia were working more in harmony with their environment, with the earth, with the riverside, with the lakes and this particular project, indigenous people here where i am standing at the moment used to be bearen land a few moments ago, there are flowers cultivated. on this side. potatoes cultivated behind me. the idea is that it's bringing more and more people in to cultivating the land. these are the kind of projects being enhanced down the mountainside and it's part of the message that they are trying to portray, trying to send over to france, to paris in time for

the united nation's climate change conference later this year. >> just a little taste, daniel. we appreciate it nonetheless, even though you will be gasping for breath at 7,000 meters, all of this ahead of the special conference. the coverage will be here and extensive, too, on al jazeera. also, coming up, to pay or not to pay for hostages, a special al jazeera investigation looks at the u.s. policy and why some are critical of washington. in sport, australia show why defenses is probably more important than attack at the rugby world cup.

the government's response to americans who have been kidnapped in syria: simon bozman reports. >> reporter: >> the killing of u.s. journalist james foley by the islamic state of iraq in the levant shocked america. behind the scenes, mark mitchell was at the center of the u.s. hostage response advising the u.s. president he stepped down and is critical of america's policy. >> the situation with the hostages in january, 2014, was a microcosm of our overall awareness of the islamic state.

we didn't have the intelligence necessary. and our resources were fraishling prioritized elsewhere. >> mitchell argues getting american hostages home is just one small objective in a larger conflict. >> . it's a priority to the recover american citizens but the always the highest priority prior to. >> it was the meeting with families of hostages. he was accused of threatening family members with prosecution if they tried to pay a ransom. >> it was this military gentleman who had absolutely no compassion. all he knew was no concessions. this gentleman did threaten us three times, simon. >> i never threatened the families. the idea that it's somehow shocking that a government official would encourage people to abide by the law, i think i find shocking in itself. >> the recent presidential review of u.s. hostage policy removed the threat of prosecution if families pay a

ransom: a move that mark mitchell believes is a mistake. >> i think the decision to allow ransoms to be paid does not contribute to the safety of american citizens. >> he believes paying up not only brakes international laws that prohibit the funding of certain armed groups but also robs families of some of their bargaining options. this no longer can rely upon the fact that it's against the law and they are subject to being beggered by the hostage takers. they can say clear out your bank accounts. sell your home. we want it all, and they have no defense. >> today, at least 30 americans are still being held hostage around the world. each family faces the dilemma of whether to pay and, perhaps, encourage further kidnapping or not pay and face the consequences. simon bozman, al jazeera. three people have died in northern iraq where violent protests have entered their
