our own weaknesses we deplore the fact that even the staffing of is not sufficient in order to protect all of our civilians the heightened security threats linked to the violence from armed groups. provisions need to be made to make sure that the crisis does not become general in nature. i've already pleaded for the easement of the equipment conditions for our army and. i also called in the international community to increase the military staffing. given the immense territory we have to cover i also ask that a mandate which is very soon will expire bill rereviewed and strengthens so as to help the legitimate country of the country to rig. the control of those areas which have natural resources wanted by several. groups beyond control i would like to express the gratitude of several african people to the brotherly countries who send

fact that the pressure is on in the country to promote peace despite that despite seeing the fighting that is still ongoing. that's right the point that. i wanted to stress to the u.n. general assembly is that his country is very much on a tight edge that the country is only under the control of the government just about thirty percent of it the rest of it is under the control of rebel groups either. forces and it's goes groups that have led to the displacement of at least a half million people within the country and have forced many others to plea to neighboring countries in search of safety one of the things which. stressed is the ongoing efforts despite those problems to try to build on

a peace agreement a very nascent peace agreement in order to try to bring stability back to the country of course. this cannot be done just by the government alone that there is much international assistance that is required assistance from the african union assistance from the united nations and to that point he is asking for an additional three hundred to four hundred peacekeepers to join minu which is the peacekeeping operation there in the central african republic in order to help stabilize the country it's a very long and torturous process but the president told the general assembly that the commitment and the political will are there in order to stabilize his country and to bring peace and make it possible for people to return to their homes and live out their dreams all right thanks for that. background on the conflict in

central african republic. the people of the central african republic have become used to violence for months now and bria thousands have been forced to live in self-made camps after renewed fighting between rival muslim and christian groups the soldiers of the u.n. struggling to contain a four year old conflict that's never been resolved. that what happened here was terrible we were forced to bring our children here where they sleep like animals because of the fighting always gunshots we hardly have anything to eat we have no access to health care our houses were burnt down we have nothing. but tensions go back to twenty thirteen went into religious and ethnic violence broke out. thousands died as a muslim and christian warlords battled for power and money. now a nation that's grown too used to grief threatens to again spiral out of control.

since may fighting has escalated and it's not just between religions but different factions within the groups hundreds have died and more than a million people have either fled the country or been displaced inside it the international community is struggling to find a solution. u.n. troops were brought in to keep the peace have lost their lives three moroccan soldiers the most recent to be ambushed and killed in july the u.n. says more troops are needed to deal with the upsurge in violence there were in their village they were in their cities they were in their houses and today after those attacks that the tragedy and the population here is a hostage of armed groups and less we are able to reverse the trend and alice we are able to change the situation for them. divided and paul central african republic problems reflects years of conflict and mismanagement france ended its

peacekeeping mission to its former colony last year while confidence in the un's forces has been damaged by allegations of widespread sexual abuse despite the presence of troops the central government is too weak to control the armed groups outside the capital it warns that if un forces are bolstered soon the country could again descend into chaos duncan crawford al-jazeera. britain's prime minister has proposed a two year transitional deal after the u.k. leaves the european union to reserve. is with europe's leaders in italy on future ties between the u.k. and the european union she says breaks it does not mean the u.k. is no longer a family member of the e.u. britain is scheduled to leave the in march two thousand and nineteen speech

emphasized shared goals a strong partnership and a fairer divorce deal. it does not mean that we are no longer a proud member of the family of european nations and it does not mean we are turning our back on europe or worse that we do not wish europe to succeed the you to succeed. the success of the e.u. is profoundly in our national interest and that of the wider world but having made this choice the question now is whether we the leaders of britain and of the member states and institutions can demonstrate that creativity that innovation that ambition that we need to shape a new partnership to the benefit of all our people are joining us is new barker year is in florence listening to that speech tell us more about the plan. well they were full of creative ideas as to reason i kept repeating full of optimism

another word that she used multiple times throughout the course of her speech but what she essentially focused on though was a a series of possible arrangements a wish list is probably the best way to describe it covering everything from new economic arrangements when she made clear would not be along the same kind of lines as currently exist between canada and the e.u. legal arrangements to the where the u.k. courts nor the european court of justice would have the final say on legal disputes for instance between the e.u. and the u.k. also new arrangements between the e.u. and britain when it comes to defense and security without though going into any great details specifics about how these new arrangements will work she just said that more work more to go she ations needs to happen between the u.k. and the e.u. going forward but crucially perhaps the the focal point of this speech is that decision to provide that transition period of two years allowing for there to be

more of a break since sloped rather than a steep cliff edge she hoped that that would provide a degree of certainty particularly for britain's business world the financial district in the city of london who are worried about a sudden about turn it will allow businesses to prepare for britain's departure from the e.u. and to reason may believe that that is a good freight thing but of course for people who voted for brics it means that five years after the referendum britain will still largely be under a huge jurisdiction and it seems that you wanted to hold on to much of what britain will be leaving when they leave the e.u. and i'm just wondering how this will go down in europe and how it's likely to play out in parliament back. it was he has a fractured and divided parliament even in the build up ahead of this speech we saw the likes of boys johnson foreign minister writing a four thousand word blueprint for how he thought it should be very much

a heart breaks that she seems to have overcome at least for the sake of the speech those a media division's but it's hard to imagine that behind the scenes those differences of opinion on how brics it should unfold likely to persist and continue in terms of the european perspective we are expecting for young called younger the european commission president to speak very very soon they've been watching this very very closely indeed i think that they will reflect in very much the same way people here in italy of hearing their speeches somewhat of a wish list a set of proposals with where in reality concrete steps are really needed and really want people in brussels are looking for all right thank you. for the first time in history a north korean leader has released a statement to the world in a to kim jong un directly takes aim at u.s. president donald trump calling him deranged a gangster playing with fire and a barking dog has also threatened to test

a hydrogen bomb in the pacific ocean kathy novak reports from seoul. inflammatory threats from north korea are not unusual but it is rare for the leader kim jong un to issue a statement himself. it was read out on state television along with a photo of the leader responding to donald trump's speech to the u.n. in which he threatened to totally destroy the democratic people's republic of korea or d p r k kim called the us president's behavior mentally deranged and said now that trump has denied the existence of and insulted me and my country in front of the eyes of the world and made the most ferocious declaration of war in history that he would destroy the d.p. r. k. we will consider with seriousness exercising of a karst funding highest level of hardline countermeasure in history as to what that countermeasure might be his foreign minister in new york had this suggestion you do

i think it could be a hydrogen bomb test on the ground of an unprecedented scale in the pacific ocean. there hasn't been an underwater or atmospheric nuclear test in decades they are banned under several treaties considered just too dangerous for people and the environment there was immediate condemnation from the two countries in the region likely to be most at risk from a north korean attack to pen and south korea. north korea's remarks and behavior provocative to regional and international security and they are absolutely unacceptable. north korea should immediately stop its direct least provoke ations that will lead itself to isolation and collapse. but kim jong un says trump's remarks convinced him that he chose the correct path and must continue to follow it south korea's president used his speech to the u.n.

to repeat that his country does not desire the collapse of north korea and to insist that there will not be war again on the korean peninsula he says the situation must be stable the managed so that tensions will not become overly intensified and so that accidental military clashes do not destroy peace kathy novak al jazeera soul still ahead on al-jazeera a grim report for bringing the children skate in violence in manama many are likely to end up as orphans. welcome back as we look at weather conditions across southern parts of china and indochina main feature is the heavy rain we've seen across these southern areas southern parts of china seen some particularly heavy rainfall and we've also had problems across laos and through into miramar and indeed parts of thailand to some

hundred thirty thousand fled me and in the past month due to a military crackdown in rick. kind state. what i want to first me and mom must unconditionally stop the violence and the practice of ethnic cleansing in the rakhine state immediately and forever secondly secretary general of the united nations should immediately send a fact finding mission to me and mar third also billions irrespective of religion and ethnicity must be protected in me and mark for that saves zones could be created inside me and under un supervision for ensure sustainable return of all forcibly displaced in bangladesh to their homes in me and mark turner who has more from the rangar camp in cox is bizarre. as the numbers continue to grow this is the message bangladesh wants its people and the world to see one of human kindness and

asking for all the help it can get but the government has made no secret of the fact that it wants these refugees to return to me as soon as possible and among the calls made by prime minister sheikh hasina at the un general assembly was for safe zones to be set up inside me and mark policed by the un so that these people can return to their homeland in safety security and dignity well this is one of several makeshift camps set up on the bangladesh side of the border to house these hundreds of thousands of refugees i asked some of them what they made of the prime minister's idea. we will go back to myanmar only if they give us id cards but we won't go to a saves we want peace and we want to go back to our own assess. i came here ten days ago i am willing to go back to myanmar only if there is peace the soldiers burn our homes they killed my husband and two sons so no we don't want

to go back now with things as they are the kinds of things you routinely hear described killings beatings burned villages and rape make it unsurprising that few people want to go back now they may have no homes to go back to but what so many among this stateless people seem to crave is citizenship is a place in which they belong and that's something that un safe zones are not going to provide aid agencies warn by the end of the year more than half a million rangar children could be refugees in bangladesh. caught up along in bangladesh. asking for money from strangers is no easy task when you have never done it before it's especially difficult when you are a child just a week ago was playing in the fields near her home in myanmar is reckoned state unaware of the dangers to come but then masked men set her house on fire killing her parents she travelled alone to bangladesh here

brief moments of fun but for the most part running the children have to act like adults they work build homes and search for food. this is the hardest part of the day for. and all the others here she is going to have to compete with adults other children to try to get a small bag of rice and lend and that will be their meal for the day. in the chaos she fails to get a ration she returns to her tent empty handed and alone. this is the start of a new life as a ten year old refugee in a foreign land nicholas hawke al-jazeera could to prolong bangladesh. writes kurdish leader massoud barzani has been addressing his supporters in the france or hariri stadium in arab oil and he's been saying that despite international and
