hello and welcome to the al-jazeera news hour live from my headquarters and me and soprano coming up in the next sixty minutes. sure happened a long time ago should happen years ago. u.s. president donald trump says he's designated north korea a state sponsor of terrorism paving the way for more sanctions. tens of thousands of haitian migrants who escaped the two thousand and ten earthquake now face being deported from the u.s. . zimbabwe's ruling party begins impeachment proceedings against robert mugabe arthur he refuses to resign as president and the head of syria's main opposition body the high negotiations committee steps down just days before key talks in saudi arabia. u.s. president donald trump has designated north korea

a state sponsor of terrorism tramples so a promise of more sanctions against pyongyang but secretary of state rex tillerson says washington hasn't given up on resolving the nuclear crisis on the korean peninsula through diplomacy she had reports from washington d.c. . president trumps of the designation of north korea as a sponsor of terrorism was long overdue should have happened a long time ago should happened years ago in addition to threatening the world by nuclear devastation north korea has repeatedly supported acts of international terrorism including assassinations on foreign soil. however this announcement wasn't a certainty some officials at the state department were reported to as north korea did not meet the legal definition of a state sponsor of terrorism two cases have been cited during the deliberations the killing of kim jong un's half brother at i'm a lazy an airport and the treatment of american student on

a woman who died of his injuries after being released from north korean custody neither represent terrorism they argued nonetheless more sanctions will now be announced by the treasury department there it's unclear this will prove to be anything more than a symbolic measure given all of the sanctions that have already been levied against pyongyang something the secretary of state alluded to i don't want to suggest to you that the designation is suddenly going to put a whole new layer of sanctions all in because again i think we already have north korea so heavily sanctioned in so many ways with the u.n. resolutions that have been undertaken but this will close a few additional loopholes all analysts are attempting to discern a comprehensive strategy for north korea from the trumpet ministration i think it's disappointing trump came to washington as an outsider and i really thought that maybe there was some chance that he could have a policy towards north korea that would be different and more creative than the

ones that the inside the beltway crowd have been implementing. the north koreans have said they would end their nuclear tests and resume negotiations if the u.s. and its military exercises with south korea the u.s. has ruled that out so in the meantime the administration is once again relying on sanctions and harsh rhetoric she average hansie washington this costs live now to our cost fondant in the south korean capital seoul kathy novak is joining us from there what impact is this move likely to have happened. well the move allows the u.s. to impose more sanctions on north korea but as we heard there of course there is already a sweeping sanctions program we heard the secretary of state rex tillerson there saying that there isn't much more to be done on that front nevertheless the south korean government has welcomed the move saying it along with international pressure and sanctions will contribute to a peaceful resolution of the north korean nuclear issue japan's prime minister also

shims allowed a has welcomed it saying that it will put more pressure on the government in north korea and these this designation as a state sponsor of terrorism was lifted back in two thousand and eight when there were hopes for salvaging the six party talks but of course north korea ultimately walked away from those international discussions and this move now is part of the u.s. as broader attempt to exert maximum pressure on north korea and force it back to the negotiating table so it is a largely symbolic move but also in a part designed to put pressure on others to take more action against north korea china of course is north korea's largest trading partner or one of its only friends in the world although that relationship has been strained of late there had been some hope of perhaps more dialogue with china sending an envoy to pyongyang it was the highest level of fishel visit in two years that was just wrapped up yesterday

and although us sensibly on the surface it was for this chinese and voice to report on the progress of china's national party congress the chinese state media has said that discussion topics included the korean peninsula and other issues of common concern when the u.s. imposed talks about sanctions and the u.n. also it's about pressuring north korea to come back and talk but north korea often sees things sions in a different way it reacts angrily and says it proves that the u.s. has a hostile policy against north. and often uses that as an excuse to continue to pursue its nuclear program elizabeth we haven't of course seen a test from the north and over two months now so what is the assessment where you are cathy on what's going on with the north of the sol and your clear program while that apparent halt in testing we haven't seen as you said

a test since back in september had been interpreted in different ways there had been some hope among some that it might signal that the north is willing to return to talks but then other analysts have said that this is cyclical that it's simply historically a time of year when we see less activity coming from north korea the south korean spy agency has just updated the national intelligence committee of the national assembly and it says that it has seen signs of engine testing at north korea's missile facilities and that there is a possibility that north korea may get test another ballistic missile before the end of the year on the nuclear front it says that there are no signs of an imminent test at the north's nuclear facility though it is ready to conduct another test at any time another thing that the national spy agency said is that it is reporting punishment of top military officials this is interesting because apparently this is

the first inspection of the political arm of the military in over two decades and it seems that the bureau chief and deputy chief according to south korea's spy agency have been punished elizabeth very interesting kathy thank you very much for that for now that's kathy novak with the latest from seoul thank you . let's move on to other news now tens of thousands of haitian immigrants are facing deportation from the united states' most for an hour then after the two thousand and ten earthquake which destroyed much of haiti but their status was only temporary the trumpet ministration says conditions on the island have improved enough for them to go home assess the special status well and in two thousand and nineteen and gallagher reports now from little haiti in miami. when haiti was hit by a devastating earthquake in two thousand and ten thousands live for the u.s.

and were offered temporary protected status over the decades the programs helped almost half a million people from nations ravaged by natural disasters and war for years it's been extended by presidential decree and has allowed recipients to legally live and work in the united states to deport them toward lives where you know they will not be free in the case of haiti i didn't make it marlene bastiaan says removing this special status will have devastating consequences it will wreck their lives it will it will destabilize their families it will separate their families because we are talking about people who have been living here for an average of thirty years. they have deep roots in our communities those roots of found across the country many of those granted protection have u.s. born children who may be forced to leave with their parents you know they look nice again although i imagine they can't even sleep to see all your dreams crumble your

efforts to have a home in this country and to have to leave it's inhumane others like jodeen say going back after so many years isn't safe or practical i lost my house in haiti. then i lost my house and i would not. want to go. players. ending the protected status of long established communities is seen by advocates as cruel and unnecessary for years over deportation has already led to an influx of haitians seeking asylum in canada times overwhelming local authorities for years those benefiting from temporary protected status have been referred to as living in limbo but in truth they've established businesses started families and become valued members of their communities those who have now lost their status face the prospect of being sent back to countries they no longer think of as home and they gallacher al-jazeera little miami. well let's get more on this

now we're joined by diane estabrook she's live for us in washington d.c. tell us more diane about why the trumpet ministration has taken this decision and now. well it's been looking at this decision for a while and now it's back in may that it was probably that it would extend it for six months but likely end this program for the haitians and what it said it's been coordinating with haiti and it's found that the living conditions in haiti since the earthquake in two thousand and ten have improved it also says the economy has proved and continues to improve and it says that many of these people that are living in haiti currently who had been in these displacement camps have left those camps but it also plays into the trunk policy of being tougher on immigrants and and cracking down on immigration. the trump administration has questioned this plan and some say that this program is sort of a back door into amnesty for some immigrants and how and when can we expect this to

be enforced it says the special status will end in two thousand and nineteen so what happens then. that's right well as far as we know those people have eighteen months to sort of get their ducks in a row and that they will have to leave the country by july twenty ninth teens so i'm sure we'll probably be hearing in the months ahead how d.h. has plans to enforce that law and we're talking about sixty thousand people fewer than sixty thousand people here in the u.s. diane thank you very much for that diane estabrook joining us live from washington d.c. thank you now and a few hours from now as a boy's running zanu p.f. party is juice a big and pitchman to proceedings against president robert mugabe a proposal to remove mugabe will be tabled in parliament after the embattled leader ignored a monday deadline to resign it comes as mugabe began talks with former vice president and this and among god well he fired two weeks ago the head of the army says will

return so why don't we toss a has more from what r.t. the monday new deadline for president roberts macgyver to resign or face in each meant has come and gone later that evening the military said operation restore legacy is making progress this. services i encourage to buy new developments which includes one that to be driven the brits then and the former vice president mustn't number them. which is expected in the country shortly. there after the nation will be advised on the outcome of talks between the two. calls for the president to step down are growing louder the war veterans wants more gobbets closest allies say they are losing patience. because what we don't want to see. we saw him go to the national television to pretend everything is

normal if you are saying that. we are saying mugabe go no go no go no war no your time is up please leave. the country start on a new or new page that appear m.p.'s say they will file a motion in parliament and choose day to impeach mcgarvey opposition m.p.'s who decide whether to join them president mugabe is an increasing pressure to step down and regional leaders are trying to find a quick solution to zimbabwe's political crisis. students at the university of zimbabwe say it's time for the ninety three year old leader to step aside they are refusing to take exams and threatening to shut down the investor. being poor zimbabwe must be restored to. the red mascot of. his term that he should go interest we no longer want you in power so everybody who

does not does not understand the rule of the people is not become a constitution or delinquent. these are uncertain times is uncharted territory for zimbabwe events of the last few days have shaken both the party and the state how much has al-jazeera had. a bright matonga as a former government spokesman and deputy information minister and he says the time has come for president mugabe to go. to. the woman. who is going to be the next just want. to be anything. is something new something different. we have had president mugabe for a long time but nine terms it has never happened it's a world record but was is was go to some cases but now at the news it's high time for my president you know to you know to to you know to to retire in a gristle minute your friends in the media the retired in the media always decide agree jim even in malaysia they have to get

a break and i think you know it's time to two years to hand over to someone else this is not personal but i think for the good of everybody we need to keep his legacy we need to protect but because he's done a lot with it it was a marble with them one on god while you he's in that but he will use them on this and i think you did also which other but at the moment not being in opposition. in this process of assisting zimbabweans coming with a new leader people are united black white this is an appearance at the opposite political parties there is a united force guys let's just do this together let's assist our president to resign we don't head you but i think you just has to hand over to someone else. we've had on the news including.

washington d.c. . and. looks at the career of champion. passed away at the age of nine. and e.u. foreign ministers are calling for the safe return of refugees who fled from myanmar to bangor there the joint statement was made at the thirteenth meeting which began in capital naypyidaw on monday the summit is attended by bangladeshis foreign minister was the highest bangladeshi official to visit since the latest one hundred crisis myanmar security forces are accused of violently forcing out hundreds of

thousands of muslims since august well let's cross live to our correspondent scott hardman now he's a young gone for a second and last day of the foreign ministers meeting scott just what's happened so far and it appears that the issue has been brought up. yes definitely know that today is the second and last day of this two day meeting with these foreign ministers or fifty foreign ministers from asia and europe and what's happened so far you know they've been mostly closed door meetings or been a couple of statements that have come out one thing that was interesting the chinese foreign ministers here in town and he said that china and this is a bit of an interesting tact we haven't heard this before china said that they want to play a constructive role when it comes to dealing with the revenge issue and they said that they're going to work with the government here in myanmar and bangladesh to try to work forward to a. three step program which is the first one is going to be calling

a ceasefire the talk about repatriation and then they want to talk about a long term plan obviously those are some pretty big steps to take and there's going to be a lot of negotiation to go along with that and as part of that the foreign minister from bangladesh is here as you mentioned the list with because of this meeting we expect him to stay on a couple of extra days after this meeting ends today on tuesday and that is to further negotiate the situation with repatriation we know that there are talks have been going on so probably stay here in me and more and try to work through that negotiation of how some of these more than six hundred thousand can possibly come back to myanmar lisbon and what are we expecting today scott. today later on in a couple of hours' time will be a press conference as well in a lot of these kind of formal meetings of foreign ministers and of leaders there will be a joint press conference and we're not sure if there's actually going to be some type of communique that's handed out or read out but there will be a joint press conference in about three four hours time and then we'll hear

probably the dish really with this they say they discuss they talk about they discuss what was in those meetings obviously a lot of it's going to be talking about bilateral relationship between the nations involved but also the range issue was discussed in these meetings the latest and see how it's presented in this meeting in this press conference i switch say because it's such a very touchy issue if you will hear me and mark for obvious reasons but also because the ranger term isn't even used officially by the government here so if you got you know dignitaries at a podium in myanmar with the leader the de facto leader standing next to them are they going to use that term so these are the little things we can look forward to but i think most of the the traction in the movement on the range issue crisis was probably done by lateral meetings and side off meetings during this two day official meeting but it'll be interesting to see what they say officially in this press conference in the coming hours yeah absolutely scott thank you very much for that finale that scott hyla joining us live from gangland thank you. the head of

the largest saudi backed syrian opposition group have resigned after ninety two he is the out the job was appointed leader of the high negotiations committee in december two thousand and fifteen he has spokesperson and several other officials have stepped down ahead of an opposition conference in saudi and a new round of u.n. sponsored talks in geneva a statement from his job did not say why he was quitting the agency is the main anti-government umbrella block which includes political and groups well jonathan queston is a fellow at the world policy institute and middle east expert and he says unity among the opposition committee is important but may be impossible for any leader to achieve. i think that there are two possible reasons you know one is it's of quite a thankless job i think that he's had over the last couple of years he is acting as an umbrella group for a very wide range of organizations that really have competing goals competing interests don't necessarily work with each other some of them show up sometimes and

not other times and it's in some ways it's a bit of a p.r. sort of position it plays well to the a western audience it plays well to the other powers in the region to make it seem like they're someone speaking for all of these groups when in reality they don't so i think that there's a certain frustration that anyone would have in that circumstance now the timing comes not only before these meetings but it also is time to around a lot of. a flurry of activity from saudi arabia in the region and so you know it is too early to know for sure what is going on but you know it could be that the saudis had a particular replacement in mind it could be that he was frustrated that things were going nowhere and didn't want to go through a sort of farcical display at these meetings but i think we'll find out in the days

to come i imagine. now the very process and they the have joined the list of yemeni cities that are now without clean water two point five million people live in the five cities where a shortage of fuel caused by the sell the lead blockade has caused pumping stations to shut down some yemeni ports have reopened to allow and desperately needed food and aid that aid groups say it isn't enough mohamed john john reports. in yemen where a humanitarian catastrophe continues unabated anger rises as supplies window. we have many people with kidney failure and cancer and many other diseases but there is no treatment where can we go. hundreds took to the streets in the city of her date on sunday demanding the saudi led coalition reopen air and sea ports to allow the unimpeded flow of much needed aid. in one of her they does hospitals

where medical supplies are running dangerously low a baby diagnosed with cholera is seriously ill. yemen which is on the verge of famine is also suffering from the worst cholera outbreak ever recorded nine hundred thousand suspected cases of the disease have been recorded since april it was the track of how hospitals need anesthetic materials surgically sutures and surgical tools edison's and many other things and all these things enter through these ports if they are closed these materials decrease. the u.n. is growing increasingly concerned that there is a point it becomes a second tipping point where those seven million people who are living lives including four hundred of those children under the age of five who are skilled to which is that you see on t.v. those people are living in an existence and if we interrupt their very fragile supply. then those people are getting closer and closer to that.

representatives of the un's office for coordination of humanitarian affairs in yemen are eager to travel to saudi arabia to discuss the issues face to face with saudi leaders but can't really afford to send a team to discuss the procedures. or. somebody but i. think. in addition to the humanitarian concerns a new report from the s.a.m. organization the geneva based rights watchdog says that at least seven hundred sixteen cases of rights violations were committed against civilians in yemen last month. the alleged violations included extra judicial killings physical assault arbitrary detention forced displacement torture and violations of press freedom. more than five hundred were attributed to iranian backed who the rebels who are currently in control of the capital sanaa while the saudi led coalition was deemed

that fell apart following the withdrawal of the democratic party. as germany's political. the country's president had a stark warning for the various parts. in the election on september twenty fourth the parties had to take on responsibility of germany this responsibility and accordance with the german constitution cannot simply be given back to the electorate earlier he had met chancellor angela merkel following the collapse of talks between her party the greens the socialist democratic party and the free democratic party or f.t.p. merkel since been trying to send a reassuring message to germany and the outside world is that i can talk it is at least a day of to perfection on how to go forward but i will do everything possible transitional chancellor to ensure that this country will be well led through these difficult

to push through reforms the collapse of the talks simply you're affording likely the next government will not necessarily be a stronger government because it has come about in a rather cumbersome and conflictual process which doesn't make for a very energetic or. a vicious government it will rather be one that will try to magically continue and muddle through rather than to shake up europe with new ideas the next few days will prove crucial not only in shaping germany's immediate political future but also advance of the e.u. now even if the country does avoid having to vote again and whatever shape the next government will take the stability that german leadership once represented is now being brought into question. here on berlin. now the argentine navy says a new sound detected in the search for a missing submarine did not come from the vessel the noise was picked up by two
