2:01 pm
crash in russia, killing everyone onboard? cuba welcomes its first u.s. president in 19 years, we have all of the sports, including extending their lead at the top. a suicide bomber has killed himself and four others in an attack on a major shopping and tourist district in istanbul. turkey's prime minister has condemned the attack, carried out by what he calls centers of terrorism. this has been the latest of strings of attacks. >> another bomb goes off in turkey, this time in the heart of us tan bull, in the heart of
2:02 pm
the biggest shopping district. this street would have been packed with shoppers and visitors. hundreds of people ran the moment a loud explosion was heard. istanbul's governor was at the scene shortly after the blast. >> a suicide bomber blew himself up in front of the district government building around noon, killed three and wounded 21 others. three of them were in critical condition. one of them just died in hospital. >> though no one has taken responsibility, the government has linked the separatists to the armed pkk, which has been there february decades. >> pkk they have announced all
2:03 pm
over turkey and the violence has not stopped against the possible terrorist attacks in turkey all over the country. >> reporter: since the talks broke down in july last year, there have been several attacks in the country, three alone in the country and they have killed almost 300 people. the most recent was less than a keg. the pkk, a group linked to them claimed responsibility for the attack, which also targeted a busy shopping street. germany announced that it was closing it's consulate in is istanbul, saying that another attack is imminent. tourism is one of turkey's
2:04 pm
major sources of income. 35 million foreigners visit every year. the increased number of attacks could flatten it's economy. for now, the government insists turkey is safe, but they will have to do a lot more to ensure the safety of its citizens and visitors. >> meanwhile, the latest istanbul. from time to time ththe suicidel came after major warnings in turkish cities. and that happened as a suicide bombing attack in the heart of istanbul city, in one of its major tourist attractions. increasing around the city, we could see policemen patrolling and in the maigres of istanbul. and people in general are
2:05 pm
avoiding the crowded public areas in fear of any other terrorist attack. and in fact, the security forces are looking for other suspects who possibly could carry out a similar attack in some other target in turkey. >> now, lauren is in the prominently kurdish city in turkey, where they are concerned that the new year, which falls on sunday, could actually be the target. >> certainly, the turkish authorities are extremely concerned that the pkk and the worker's party might use the new year, which is sunday and monday, as an excuse to launch attacks on kurdish cities in istanbul. they foundationed before the suicide bomb that there would be no celebrations and it was effectively banned. so even though the authorities failed to accurately predict the suicide attack, the idea
2:06 pm
that it might be a reason for the pkk's attack was there. and here in the south, the authorities have said that they will allow them to go ahead. they have just announced today, the same security concerns, they were telling kurdish civilians that they would have to go way out in a field so hold their celebrations. it's very evident here. yesterday, friday, the police located a car with 350 kilograms of explosives expe governor's office, and if it exploded, it would have been absolute carnage, but since december, the turkish military have already killed 300 fighters, as well as 20 or more turkish policemen being killed. and many families have been
2:07 pm
displaced because their homes have been ruined. very much a threat by the sturckish military in towns and cities, and increasingly, the citizens feel a threat by the pkk. >> the blast in istanbul is the latest in the string of attacks that have rocked turkey in the past few months. in january, a blast in istanbul killed 12 tourists. last month, 12 people were cold when a car bomb exploded in ankora. and last sunday, 27 were killed when a car bomb hit i busy part of ankora. a part of istanbul for more than 20 years, thank you for joining us, mr. finkel. just to get your opinion on this, we have just seen the string of attacks. six since july, all key attacks, most of them on soft
2:08 pm
targets, and do you think that the government should have seen this coming? we know that they have already raised the alert over the past too days. >> of course the government will be criticized. they are replying and saying that the intelligence, which allows the germans to shut down for schools and embassies, it's very different than today's attack. it's not that they had no warning of it, and the intelligence sources were different. but of course, as your correspondents have been saying, it grabs attention, and i myself walked down the very street where the bombing stocklation, antookplace, and eg to my right and left. there's a sense of anxiety that some incident might occur. >> and incidents with foreigners, and that might harm the tourism industry.
2:09 pm
it's interesting, with the prime minister saying that these attacks are part of the center of terrorism. and i guess that you don't really know who the enemy is. right now, you have two. fighting the kurdish separatists and isil. these were claimed by isil last week, and they were claimed by a separate kurdish separatist group. but is it a bit too much? >> well, certainly the government has opened many fronts, and perhaps it's regretting that, that it's full, and can't really deal with this threat effectively. as you say, this may not have been committed by the pkk, but by isis. you may recall, on the tenth of october last year, there was a massive explosion, where hundreds of people died. and that was very much the work of isis, the attack focused on tourists and focused on
2:10 pm
discouraging people from coming to turkey and that too was an isis attack. there was evidence that this too might have been the work of isis. apparently the police are now concentrating on dna, trying to uncover the identity of the bomber who died in the attack, along with four others. foreigners. >> and what do you make, generally, of the government's reaction to this attack, and to the past attacks that we have seen? we know there has been a crackdown on free speech and free media in turkey as well. the president criticizing anyone that he thinks criticizes the army's actions? with turkey and outside much turkey as well, the international community? >> well, the government has reacted to these events by becoming less authoritarian and voracious. when these attacks occurred in
2:11 pm
the past, the first reaction was to draw a curtain around them, to prevent social media from reporting live from the site. it has been an attempt to deal with it, in a sense through denial, and of course the government has very much uttered the words -- the president has uttered the words f. you're not foreus, you're against us. and now it's considering legislation which will make not simply terror a crime, but even sympathizing with terror, or sympathizing with people who don't think as the government does. there have been arrests of academics who simply signed a petition in favor of peace, who certainly were not in favor of terrorism. but there seems to be fueling a atmosphere, and a real concentration of power at the
2:12 pm
top of the turkish -- >> and in ips tan bull for more than two decades, sir, thank you for sharing your thoughts with us. >> the main suspect in the paris attacks has been charged in belgium with terror oches. salah abdelslam was arrested in brussels on friday after four months on the run. a european repeat warrant has been issued? aan attempt to speed his extradition to france, which could take up to three months. >> reporter: a police convoy carrying salah abdelslam leaves the hospital in brussels. the pain suspect in the paris attacks was treated late friday, after he was lightly wounded during his arrest. he's now being held by belgium police. >> he is cooperating with the
2:13 pm
belgium legal authorities. in the context of the arrest warrant, i can tell that you he refused extradition. >> reporter: they held a meeting with the security officials. the top priority now, to bring salah abdelslam back to france for questioning and to face justice. >> salah abdelslam will have to answer for his actions in a french court. the justice, all of relatives of the 130 victims, as well as the french people. the government is determined to shed light on it. it's an important blow in europe. >> belgium officials are stating down expectation that's his extradition will be imminent. >> in the coming hours, we will make sure that the extradition is fully respected, according to the law. it could take as long as several weeks.
2:14 pm
>> there's still tension in the mollenbeek neighborhood. four other people were arrested at the same time as abdelslam. three others are members of the family that is suspected of sheltering him during the time that h he was a fugitive. >> he has friends and relatives, potential supporters that are willing to shelter him. >> we're very very relieved and happy that we finally stopped this. not only for brussels, but for europe and the rest of the world. >> it was this raid earlier in the week in a flat in a different part of brussels that gave the police vital clues on the whereabouts of europe's most wanted man. shortly after the raid, a call was made from a mobile phone that linked abdelslam, and then the police found his fingerprint in the flat. abdelslam had been on the run for more than four months. friends of his had driven
2:15 pm
through the night after the paris attacks to pick him up and bring him to brussels. it seemed that his movements were limited to a few kilometers as he ran out of options and hiding places. 130 were killed and more than 300 injured in coordinated attacks on november 13th. the main suspect linked to those attacks is now under arrest. france and belgium have made it clear that it's far from over, and more arrests can be expected. jackie is live for us in brussels and the french prosecutor, francoise hollande is just speaking in paris, and what did he say? >> reporter: well, he was giving more speculation explanat
2:16 pm
this. they were tried to speed up the extradition process, and it could take up to three months, but also, the prosecutor explains that there are now charges that they're laying against abdelslam, based on the evidence that has emerged in the four months since they have been investigating the attacks. the prosecutor gave really only one detail of information, which apparently, abdelslam has been giving the belgium police during the initial questioning taking place on saturday, since he was released from hospital. apparently, abdelslam told the belgium police, and the temperatures and investigators that his role had meant to be that he was supposed to blow himself aup the football stadium on november 13th. but he said that he actually decided to back out. now, the french prosecutor said
2:17 pm
that we should treat this information, this confession f. you like, with caution, because he pointed out that other evidence, on the car that abdelslam was driving, that he was driving all over paris that night, dropping people off. and the whole question of whether an attack was actually planned in the north of paris, because a lot of evidence, and apparently reconnaissance trips had been carried out there. so it's clear that there's a lot of evidence to be accumulated and a lot of questions, but the french prosecutor concluded that he played a key role in organizing and planning the attacks of november 13th, and that he was a key member of the team, and that's why he has been accused of participation in terrorist murders and participation in activities of a terrorist group. >> the latest from brussels, jackie, thank you. still on come on the

2:20 pm

2:21 pm
looking into two possibilities. terrorism has been ruled out. >> the investigation is currently looking into two main versions of the plane crash. a mistake by the pilot due to the harsh weather conditions or a malfunction in the plane. >> reporter: now that the voice recorders were found, the investigators will find out what happened in the last moments. they will try to know why the pilot took that final decision, and what was the advice given by the air traffic controllers. it will take a month for the full ticket to emerge, but the family and friends of the victims would want to know sooner than later. aljazeera, moscow. >> turkey has increased the security along the aegean coast, following saturday's groundbreaking deal with the european union. despite this, 1500 refugees and migrants have attempted to cross the aegean see in the

[ audio difficulties ]
2:25 pm
they don't want the refugees to arrive in an unchecked way to survive. >> around the two courses, the way to solve this problem is to solve the war in syria, and not just syria, but iraq and afghanistan also. that said, until that happens, people are looking for safety. and even if we do stop people moving across now, we do have this huge problem of families that have been separated. paying turkey to keep people there in the households when the husbands and fathers --
2:26 pm
it's not something that we should be discussing. >> and the real shush the devil will be in the detail. and are you confident that there will be enough oversight in the organizations, amnesty spoken out against it as well, that we'll look at the details and find the red flag when something should be happening? >> i think that's the question. we have seen a european deal which has been in place for something like six months, which was supposed to take 50, 100,000 refugees, and they have not even taken 1,000 because of the european system, which has supported that, and we're expecting that failed capacity to deal with that. the problem of deportation is a problem for people who don't want to leave greece being forced to leave grebes. i think the question for an agency like mine, the camps, when we have been helping people with information, with the healthcare, moving forward

2:34 pm
sunday's election won't be credible. the president is extending his term in office. some say that it has to do with the economic interest here. congo is the fourth largest producer of oil in africa. they didn't do the same in maundi, where the president ran for an unconstitutional third term. the other african leaders will try to extend their role. it's another contest for the african union, one that could expose their interests and perhaps the double standards. >> there are fears that sunday's rerun of the presidential election in zans ub ar could trigger clashes between the party and the opposition. as we report from zanzibar,

2:38 pm
include a meeting with his cuban counterpart, raul castro. speaking to aljazeera's lucia newman, i'm guessing there's a lot of excitement there right now. >> that's an understatement. there's not a single cuban i have spoken to who says that they will be not trying to catch a glimpse of president obama as he tours the streets of havana as you see behind me. the cubans all want to hear what he has to say. this is an absolutely momentous occasion, the coronation if you like, of the process of reconciliation that many cubans say that they have been waiting for for more than 50 years. it still looks the havana of the pre-cold war era, when cuba
2:39 pm
was the playground of the united states. like most visitors, president barack obama will likely feel thrust back into the 1950s, when he sees havana's art deco architecture. and the old american cars from before the 1959 revolution. still working against all odds. he will be able to admire cuba's colonial center when he tours old havana, and perhaps stop at earnest hemingway's favorite watering hole. or the scores of privately owned restaurants. testaments to the non-state sector in havana. >> part of this magic and this moment is precisely because we have accumulated so many layers of history and beautiful architectish and signs. >> reporter: but havana also wears the scars of decades of
2:40 pm
decay. what president obama won't see is on the inside. so many of these houses are absolutely deteriorated because of lack of maintenance and repairs. this one has simply collapsed and it has been condemned, and yet there are still families living inside. 74-year-old armando has been living here since he was 12, and he said that he's finally about to be moved by the government. >> reporter: there's no plumbing, so at night, i bring water from the sewage tank of the building next door, but only from the and to bathe because it's too contaminated. >> cuban authorities will likely tell obama that the fate of the crumbling buildings are the fault of the half a century of u.s. sanctions but many here say that glost neglect is to blame. still the city is a metaphor of a cultural relationship that's
2:41 pm
falling apart. which was kept frozen in time, and with obama's visit appears to be taking a giant step into the 21st century. a giant step, you say, lucia, but how much of do we expect from the cuban government, which remains the only communist government in the region? >> bash were, i don't think that anyone can expect any. in fact, not on the menu, and it's certainly not in the cards, and president raul castro has made that very clear. to under line t. guess what we had for lunch or dinner yesterday? none other than his revolutionary counterpart from venezuela. he was given the highest honor. this is his way of saying, though i'm reconciling with the
2:42 pm
united states, i'm on by no means giving up on my socialist ideology, and i'm not turning my back on my friends, even if they get along with the united states. >> for the moment, thank you. to pakistan now, one of the world's most vulnerable countries to climate change. rapid change with legal and illegal logging is at risk. the government has pledged to plant 100 million trees. >> reporter: the mountain slopes in the distance show how quickly forists in pakistan are disappearing. thousands of trees are being chopped down and transported by illegal loggers. the timber market here is one of the many factors in deforestation. using forest lands for farring,
2:43 pm
pakistan is an increasing target for deforest station by 2015. >> pakistan, rapid deforest station, increases the vulnerability. the government wants to plant more trees, which would mitigate natural disasters, and help keep rain water. there's a destruction in the land erosion and flooding. and heatwaves in many part of pakistan have killed dozens of people. government leaders have announced an nivtive to plant over 100 million trees in the next years. saplings can be found in the local communities and rely on wood for their fires. >> 1 million plants, and five, six million plants have been shifted to the sites for forest station. >> many have welcomed the
2:44 pm
plantingest, but the government is destroying trees. >> you see in islamabad, and the development prompts, we are having a lot of the deforestation, which is not good for the country. >> local farmers are encouraged by plantation campaigns, and they're already achieving results from previous ones. we have many, for financial and environmental and fuel by trimming the branches of new trees. >> the most immediate advantage of planting these trees, we have cleaner air. in the the effort to expand the mangroves and diversity, pakistan's inability for climate change. >> the u.s. and china have opened a joint safety facility

2:47 pm
churches destroyed by haiyan were storm shelters, and reconstruction continues, and they're building to withstand any national disasters. this is a step in the right direction, but more needs to be done to ensure that people's livelihoods are also protected. and that is an investment. people need to be supported to change on how they're earning an income, and there needs to be necessary infrastructure around farming to make i sure that they're not at risk when the typhoons come. >> as filipinos go to the polls to elect a new loader, many hope that the new president will do more to help them. >> every year greenland loses about 500 people seeking a better life elsewhere.
2:48 pm
500 might not sound like a lot. but it is, when you consider that the total population of greenland is only 56,000. we traveled to the capital to investigate the challenge that's greenland is facing. >> growing up in greenland has changed. children here, once destined to be hunters, fishermen or reindeer herders, but that traditional way of life is dying out and the struggling economy is leaving children with out hope. alcoholism, every year hundreds leave to seek a better life in denmark or they give up altogether. single mother, she has teamed suicide twice. she's running a suicide prevention company as she tries to build a better life in the
