immigrant policy was the best performer in the right wing coalition which has secured thirty seven percent of the vote but the strongest single party result went to the anti establishment five star movement barbara ports now from iran. just five years after they first got into parliament the five star movement politicians policy of the clear individual winners in italy's general election after a campaign that saw the violence of fight corruption the vote share was more than ten points ahead of any other single party. when i felt we are a political force that represents an entire nation we can't say it is the same for the others which instead a more geographically biased this is very important because representing the entire nation projects us unavoidably towards governing the country. towards governing italy that by is best. down yet. but to form

a government they'd have to betray their promise not to go into a coalition. formally the northern league led by matteo salvini also appended the established order with its hardline nancy immigrants euro skeptic policies it would be the biggest player in a right wing coalition led by former premier silvio berlusconi but that group still falls short of being able to form a majority. salvini though insists the result is proof that italians are fed up with the status quo digital cable. i read in brussels that some people are worried they are wrong the european people with the italian vote have taken a step forward towards liberation. from closes in cages which are bringing hunger job uncertainty and insecurity. but it. is. one of the clearest outcomes after five years in power the center left democratic party have taken

a hit but they are still the second biggest party in the absence of any other solution they might stay on in government until another voting system and elections are organized you had the referendum. to change an institution and seize them and these are the way and so now we will see for example water. pipes that want i want to do on these things because in departure they were against but now we we are there we now as we were outnumbered. meanwhile silvio berlusconi who had looked like being a kingmaker in an extraordinary political comeback seems a diminished figure it's clear that many italians have sent a message that they're not happy with the state of politics here what's not clear is who's going to be in government in the near future and of course it's really has a history of governments that don't last very long the next one may be no difference nadine barber al-jazeera wrote. well materiels he has resigned as leader

of italy's democratic party following sunday's poor showing the former prime minister says he won't make any post-election deals with what he described as extremist r.t.s. forty three year old renzi has led the party since two thousand and thirteen. is enrollment has the latest for us now so with renzi resigning what future for him on the democratic party. mario it's really hard to say in the press conference he gave when he stepped down as party leader he said that he was proud of everything that he done in office and as well you as you just referred to he rejected the democratic party trying to form any coalition with either the labor party because of their strong anti immigrant rhetoric and with the five star movement which was the single largest party which
10:10 pm
is due to be the single largest party in the building behind me the below chamber of parliament saying that they are anti scientific one of their big campaign issues was the rejection of the idea of compulsory vaccinations now renzi himself resigned at the end of twenty sixteen because he called a referendum on changing the constitution to make politics a bit smoother to get things passed that failed and he referred to that in his press conference blaming. all those so-called populist parties he says that they now have landed the country in a situation where no one really can govern what he's referring to is the fact that it's not clear which group can actually form a majority in parliament the center right bloc fell short of the forty percent that they need and it looks like we're going to have an extended period of talks between different groupings to try and win the right to govern. and it could be weeks

before we see the formation of the new government nonetheless what does this what do the results from these elections essentially tell us about the direction and future policies that the new government will implement or the first question is will the new government includes the former northern leading of a how to that had a huge upsurge in support in the last few years they've come up to to to win more more in terms of percentage than their sense or right allies force italia or silvio berlusconi they took around seventy percent of the total vote they say that they are now the party which should get the first chance to form a government and to nominate a prime minister in the form of their leader matteo salvini who was speaking earlier on monday he says the there's been a clear message that people fed up with the high levels of immigration one of his
10:12 pm
policies is to start deportations mass deportations and they're very euro skeptic as well but people will say that the past experience in italy suggests that even if they do form a coalition they are likely to have to tone down some of their policies they're not realizable and of course they'll have to basically form partnerships with people who are who have lived very little in common with them perhaps even the other so-called populist party the five star movement themselves people aren't ruling out any permutations right now but they are saying that all of these parties will have to get a bit more realistic about where the money will come from for some of their policies and where the practicalities will come in terms of immigration for example all right thank you very much indeed in rome. an al-jazeera investigation has revealed new evidence of saudi arabia the u.a.e. egypt and bahrain's attempt to overthrow the country government in one thousand

arabia the u.a.e. egypt and bahrain attempt to overthrow the country's government in one thousand nine hundred six. when u.s. president donald trump says he's considering visiting israel for the opening of the american embassy in jerusalem he made the comment while entertaining israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu at the white house it is the fifth time the two men have met since trump took office let's get the latest from our white house correspondent can really help get these two men are very comfortable in each other's company and they can be with this being that the fifth such meeting between them tell us more about that conversation what was said. right all smiles mariam as the two met in the oval office making no acknowledgment of the scandals that both her and broiled in their respective countries instead it was praise particularly from benjamin netanyahu to the u.s. president donald trump with respect to the declaration of jerusalem is israel's
10:18 pm
capital of the recognition at least by the united states something that was done in december and of course you'll remember that infuriated palestinians and palestinian leaders for their part said that they will no longer deal with the united states looking instead to the international community to try and negotiate mideast peace that seems to be a point though that the president ignored because when he was speaking in the oval office he in fact said that he believes the palestinians want to come back to the table possibly also i'm not saying that so was a pretty conflicting statement from the u.s. president with regard to the mideast peace process that really seems to be completely stalled for the moment and also conflicting positions in terms of the future of that deal having said all that the one thing they could agree on was the fact that iran in their view is the one top priority when it comes to security concerns both saying they believe the iran nuclear deal emboldened iran and did not limit its nuclear powers as intended right so that's latest on the meeting between
10:19 pm
trump and yet and yet next in yahoo but the other big story from washington is the continuing fallout from president tom's decision to impose tariffs on steel an island many m what how has congress been reacting to this. well i can tell you that just like the rollout of this policy now some with regard to tariffs which was a bit of a surprise donald trump again kind of adding fuel to the fire which if you will with regard to this trade war that seems to be ignited as a result of those announcements. what we're hearing in fact from the president is that he believes that despite the fact that canada one of the top trading partners when it comes to aluminum is not happy with this plan declaration for this twenty five percent. tax if you will on any canadian air imported or any foreign nation
10:20 pm
for that matter coming to the united states of imports instead what donald trump is said in this meeting is that he may make exemptions for canada as well as mexico but only if there's a renegotiation of another trade deal known as now after the north american free trade agreement listen to what he had to say we are renegotiating nafta as i said i would and if we don't make a deal o. terminate nafta but if i do make a deal which is fair to the workers and to the american people that would be i would imagine one of the points of we're going to go sure there will be tariffs on steel for canada and for mexico. well the canadian prime minister justin trudeau said on friday that he believed any tariffs on canadian products into the united states was unacceptable and certainly we have not had any strong reaction get out of canada to these latest statements but what has been very clear is that donald trump has been repeatedly very vocal when it comes to the issue of
10:21 pm
not only how trade deals have hurt american manufacturing sectors but also how the industrial sector has been harmed so it seems that's very much a focus of his attention right now he was tweeting about it monday morning with respect to this issue now it seems he has combined the issues of not only trade deals but also the issue of tariffs into one focal point and continues to press very hard what he sees as agree just. unfairness to american workers that he himself is trying to rectify can really help just the white house thank you very much now as many as forty mexican politicians have been killed since december in the lead up to this year's general election most of the victims were local mayors or candidates in july as vote drug gangs are suspected of using violence to influence and intimidate politicians or than twenty three thousand people murdered in two thousand and seventeen making it mexico's bloodiest year since the records began south korean officials have met north korea's leader

10:23 pm
and permanent peace even before the delegates left on their controversial trip it wasn't clear they would meet with the north korean leader but soon after their arrival they were hosted to a dinner that fact along with the seniority of the officials who welcomed the south koreans and their accommodation in an official guest house shows the importance north korea places on this trip according to seoul meetings between north and south are rare summit talks were held in two thousand at the height of the so-called sunshine policy period that brought the two koreas closer together then again in two thousand and seven but with north korea's missile development a nuclear program increasing in pace in recent years relations slumped to their lowest and most dangerous point for decades. for many people in south korea just holding talks is a welcome change to the hostile rhetoric of the recent past but without
10:24 pm
a commitment from north korea that it's willing even to discuss giving up its nuclear arsenal many conservative groups have condemned these talks as meaningless past this visit is meant to lead to more talks between the two koreas that is certainly achievable it's fun less certain this mission can jumpstart talks between north korea and a skeptical united states they want a meeting to lead to denuclearization to north korea giving up its nuclear weapons and north korea has no intention of doing that so there's no likelihood that the united states and north korea would be meeting as a result of this this visit could prove in the long turn either to be important in the search for a negotiated solution or another false start in dealing with the north korean crisis of macbride al-jazeera souls. a former russian spy is critically ill in a u.k. hospital after reportedly being exposed to an unknown substance sixty six year old
