of course would you accept facing the realities what do you think reunification would look like with a lot of people think the peaceful unification is the only option for prosperity you. hear their story on talk to al-jazeera. jeanette morale is was just ten years old when a devastating earthquake struck mexico city in one thousand nine hundred five the quake damaged her family's apartment and the government moved them to distant shack around seventy families who lost their homes in that earthquake still live in this camp. the government raised our hopes and then abandoned us politicians have promised that they won't allow a repeat of what happened after the earthquake in one thousand eight hundred five but the cost and complexity of housing hundreds of people living in camps is a major task and one that many people here think the government fail.

i'm a hell of a home and this is the news hour live from doha coming up in the next sixty minutes . mark my words we will fight this. and more than fifty thousand hunter and to call the us home risk being deported. president trump says the venue has been chosen for his summit with north korea's leader kim jong un but keeps the world guessing on where else. one unders the miserable to go. the range of the world the. lulus the believe. and how why is most active volcano erupts with residents fleeing for safety as new

earthquakes are reported to. up to fifty seven thousand honduran immigrants living in the u.s. could be facing deportation after a change in the law the term of ministration says is ending what's known as temporary protection status for hondurans it was granted in one thousand nine hundred ninety five to hurricane mitch devastated the central american nation for those affected will have until january twenty twenty to either leave the u.s. or apply for visas if they qualify. the boy i've been here in this country for twenty seven years i came in one thousand nine hundred two and now i can't remember anything about my home country i've contributed to this country since i got my t.p.s. i do my taxes we're not criminals likely treat us. with

t.p.s. i have achieved a lot i'm a health educator and i have worked and i've brought up my kids who are good citizens so i don't understand what the problem is with this administration who say we are a problem when we came here to fight and to make this country grow and we are all over the united states. now hunger and all the latest to have the temporary residency scrapped there among about four hundred thirty thousand people who have traveled to the u.s. under the program escaping violence and natural disasters and if two hundred thousand salvadorians must leave by september next year while forty six thousand haitians and almost nine thousand nepalese are also facing deportation by june twenty ninth teen but more than seven thousand people from syria somalia and yemen and also some from south sudan still have their temporary rights to stay in the u.s. and gallagher has more details from washington d.c. . well the temporary protected status program began in one thousand nine hundred

ninety and it's basically a humanitarian bill that enabled people whose countries were hit by wars and natural disasters to come to the united states and live safely in the case of hondurans they came here after hurricane mitch which struck the country in one nine hundred ninety nine now what the trump administration is essentially doing is why ending down the t.p.s. program most of those people who live under it are from el salvador haiti and one jurist in over the next two years basically around four hundred thousand people will be asked to leave the united states for hondurans it's about fifty seven thousand people many of whom have lived in the united states for decades among those fifty seven thousand people affected they've had five thousand u.s. born children who are of course u.s. citizens so it is a humanitarian groups a heartless and unnecessary move many of these people who are legally living and working in the united states have set up businesses and families of their own and of course they're returning to

a country that many people see is entirely unsafe the migration from one jurist continues apace because of the drug violence and the gun violence in that country so this is seen by humanitarian groups and business groups as being a totally unnecessary move but it seems the trumpet ministration is determined to essentially end this program over the next two years they will stop t.p.s. for around ninety eight percent of the people who are living under at the moment essentially telling four hundred thousand people who have legally lived and worked in this country to get out. here is present donald trump has set a date and location for his meeting with north korea's leader kim jong un and he previously suggested that the meeting could take place in the demilitarized zone where ken and south korea's president when j. and held their historic summit last week singapore is another option but trump will be hosting his meeting with him at the white house later this month to discuss their meeting with cash. we're having very substantive talks with north

korea and a lot of things have already happened with respect to the hostages and i think you're going to see very good things as i said yesterday state dude i think you're going to be seeing very very good thing. and also the trip is being scheduled we now have a date and we have a location will be announcing it. christopher hill is a former u.s. ambassador to south korea he also let the u.s. delegation at the six party talks on north the north korean nuclear issue he says the location is one of the many questions surrounding the summit. i would not focus too much on the venue i would focus on the fact that this is the first time you have a u.s. president meeting a north korean leader and the question is do they really know what they're going to talk about much last do they know what they're going to agree on normally in a high stakes summit like this you have

a pretty clear understanding before the summit begins as to what the outcome is so far if there is such an understanding we're not privy to it the first thing they need to do is understand whether the north koreans are ready to give up their nuclear program there have been some hints that jon huntsman appeared to discuss giving up that in their program but that is not very specific the efforts that we had during the george w. bush administration were to try to work on a step by step basis finally however the talks broke down because north korea would not give the verification regime that capacity kind of international standards so from what i can tell there were near getting to the point of verifying for example that north korea is no longer producing them tony i'm producing the solid material and what i can see they haven't gotten close to that so there needs to be an

agreement on the steps the ball through example international inspectors these kinds of of issues and so lot of work to do and it's unclear what they could really accomplish in the context of one meeting with respect to a process that could take several months even if that goes. well this is hardly the first time north korea has talked about denuclearization over the past three decades the leaders of the kim family did the state have expressed some willingness to disarm under founding father kim il sung north korea signed agreements in one thousand nine hundred five and one nine hundred ninety two aimed at nuclear disarmament and then in two thousand and three under his son kim jong il north korea joined the six party talks along with the u.s. china japan russia and south korea but those talks broke down in two thousand and eight when north korea refused to allow international inspectors to access to get

access to suspected nuclear sites. now north and south korea are moving ahead with another display of unity but this time it's worth their time zones the clocks in north korea will now be set forward by hoffa now it to realign there with seoul time and this reverses a decision made by pyongyang in twenty fifteen kathy novak has more. these flowers in the center of seoul are symbolic of the renewed hope that many people here are feeling about this country's relationship with north korea the display depicts a map of a unified korea before this peninsula was divided into two countries korea was a japanese colony the legacy of that period is still a strain on japan's relationship with both koreas there's a reminder of that right here the former city hall was built during the time of japanese occupation so in two thousand and twelve the city government opened the new modern building behind it three years ago north korea made its own symbolic

statement it set its clocks back by half an hour saying that pyongyang time would replace tokyo time which was imposed by what it called wicked japanese imperialists as a result pyongyang no longer shared a time zone with seoul either thank goodness korean leader kim jong un stepped over the border and thirty minutes ahead in time a week ago state media says he felt it was painful to see to court on the wall of the summit venue indicating pyongyang and seoul times so he decided to realign the time zones as the first practical step for national reconciliation and unity. through a bumbling degree is that unifying the future the standard time should unify first is what you need to do this is just the beginning step by step what maybe not in our generation but in the next year we will have unification south korea welcome to the move saying it represents

a decision to remove the obstacles in the path to enter korean and the u.s. north korean exchanges and cooperation that are to come. plenty more ahead on the news hour including the volatile step of action as hundreds of palestinian protesters injured at the gaza israel. and argentina's government takes drastic action with huge into. straight prices tough boys another economic crisis. and in crisis. and in sports one of cycling's grand tours starts outside of europe for the first time. the aid workers in kenya say they've reached only a quarter of nearly fifty thousand families who are in need of shelter after weeks of torrential rain the red cross says it doesn't have enough money to fund its

of time squads of young men and boys rolled tires to be burned at specific locations providing a smoke screen from israeli snipers. emerging from the smoke until guess a senior official of islamic jihad promising an escalation of these protests as they approach the fourteenth of may seventy years since israel declared statehood in the day the u.s. is moving its embassy from tel aviv to jerusalem we see it clearly ok that the knicks the knicks freydis the we have a good message also from abi we'll be able to continue all of them is that it should make the worst people was eating or the boys to see what. israel continues to accuse islamic jihad and especially hamas which controls gaza of using the protests as cover for what it calls terrorist activity proximately seven thousand palestinians participated in these riots we had several attempts to cross the technical fence and to throw molotov cocktails and other terrorist devices against

israeli troops. here comes more tear gas there's been a lot of tires being burned just behind which people have been gathering some are being using slingshots to throw stones and here comes the tear gas in response from the israeli side. as people marched at a second location south of the main protest site the tear gas police intensified. as did the sound of live ammunition billon says departing with greater frequency. the protesters have seen this for weeks now dozens dead and hundreds injured even the wounded keep coming back and a bed was shot in both legs during the first demonstration on the thirtieth of march. i'm ready to go back to the israeli border to tell the world that this is our right and that we should get our land returned to us as soon as i recover i'll join the protest again. the head of gaza's mental health committee says the deadly sniper fire is so far having little deterrent effect would that increase the anger

among people or would that make them more scared you know and more scared of what the most scary thing that people are scared off as their daily life conditions you know what he or she have to do. and live this moment come give them the right to speak in seven goes at the only car do crossing from israel protesters go into the gaza side of the city the israeli military said they damaged pipelines that carry fuel and gas into the strip kind of stimulus sources so the damage could run into the millions of dollars and take weeks to repair. that al-jazeera goes or. israel's defense minister has rejected an apology from palace or from palestinian leader and one of us calling him a holocaust denier abbas said his sorry for suggesting the persecution of european jews was related to their professions and not their religion he says backtracked to say it was not his intention to offend and he fully respects the jewish faith the

u.s. ambassador to the u.n. says that the comments undermine prospects for peace. people in lebanon head to the polls on sunday for parliamentary elections and it's likely that regional players like iran and saudi arabia will be closely monitoring this outcome of the vote and as a rift between them deepens lebanon is caught in the middle. bar reports now from beirut . it's the last day of election campaigning opponents trade accusations and lebanon's main political parties why for a bigger say this is a country that is divided along sectarian lines prime minister sather heavy the most powerful sunni politician here has told his supporters that this election is about protecting against iran's growing influence here for. this election is a confrontation between two visions one that wants to protect beirut's identity

while the other aims to change its identity well beirut the house really accuses his main rival and hizbullah leader has some muscle or law of controlling lebanon's decision making process see it in the arm and the lebanese should listen to anyone who wants to drag the country into civil war. a saudi arabia and iran remain locked in a battle for regional influence people here are worried about their future. saudi arabia has its men in lebanon and iran has its men in lebanon want the country will continue to be the battlefield for the struggle for now it's political unless it turns into a military confrontation. how do you has stepped up his campaign beirut is his stronghold why it is eager to make more gains in the valley and the south. in addition to the regional influence paralyzes the government paralyzes political

life lebanon had no president for two years and this was a result of regional disagreements. in two thousand and sixteen saudi arabia and iran set aside their differences paving the way for the election of a new president and a new government led by how do you but it's not clear if that deal with hold amid the growing tension between the regional rivals. this is a caution omen not only for lebanon but also for the two political heavyweights saudi arabia and iran both will ensure their local allies will consolidate the gains in the election. and the fury is being felt across why big island after more earthquakes and volcanic eruption more than a thousand people have been forced to leave their homes as lava flows as sulphuric gas threaten residential areas and the hayward reports. in the heart of

a residential area in hawaii molten lava pools down the road burning through woodland and sending smoke ash and rocks into the sky. killer way up to dive to several quakes were felt on hawaii. and hundreds of people living close by and now being told they have no choice they must leave their homes since it's right there behind us we could hear this loud. exploding. right from the house and so you know there is a house going to still be there when we go back over to. the emergency services are now involved in a major incident trying to assess the scale of the eruption on the ground and in the air and how best to help those who live and work in its path roads are being blocked talk to keep people out of the most dangerous areas as

forming a human chain in front of a wall of riot police another group disgusted and through reading them even as they're arrested and herded onto a bus these are among two of the most popular videos posted on the eevee and report website during protests that have obliterated the armenian political establishment over the last several weeks in real time giving a sense of what was changing a historic moment in the history of the contemporary sort of history of the armenian people because they understood their power. no one saw this seismic shift coming. anger over a lack of economic opportunity corruption and a sense of injustice had been simmering in our media and society for almost three decades but former president third sarky see and parliament underestimated just how

bad up people were we need go passion began leading government protests in the capital year of on a small but potent group of independent media outlets were ready. utilizing social media they were able to offer an unprecedented counter narrative to the our media and state media we still saw a pattern of violence and intimidation unfairly targeting journalists in the course of their daily work and it was all acceptable but on the broader level the lack of a crackdown was perhaps for the wrong reason it was stemming from weakness and incapacity coverage of the protests has increased the profile of eevee and report people have been making donations and sending notes taking the staff of two for the public service they've been providing the role of independent media is so critical

today in a country like armenia post soviet transitional nation trying to find its place in the world without a diversity of voices we can't move forward as a country. after weeks of nonstop reporting many journalists are resting before parliament votes on a new prime minister next tuesday they know this is only just the beginning of the story. natasha could name al-jazeera. r.b.t. . and coming up an al-jazeera there on the beach with mexico's police and find out why they're struggling to fight crime. as one with nature to go into the minute on psychotic men. and then sport find out if korea is unified table tennis team can make it to the world championship final.

attacking his critics and defending his policies that will trump indorsed gun rights and once again made the case for arming teaches past records. it was a study in contradiction as donald trump or claimed on stage that the u.s. would be a safer place with more guns the secret service banned the audience from carrying firearms to ensure the president's safety your second of them. are under siege but they will never ever. be under see as long as i'm your president the national gun debate has been at a fervor pitch says a gunman killed seventeen people at a high school in parklane florida in february student survivors of that shooting at a protest of hundreds of thousands in washington d.c. in march to demand a change to gun laws to stop the violence and for a time it appeared the president was listening what i'd really love to hear is the

child that spoke the day after the portland shooting in that cabinet room and he said he was bored spirited background checks and raising the age of purchase and just saying hey guys there is something we can do we have to do it i'm going to show leadership we can't be afraid to be entering we're going to do it. but trump quickly backpedaled after meeting with n.r.a. leaders is only action since he has been to moderately sure a background checks and push to arm teachers the n.r.a. contributed close to thirty million dollars to trump's campaign its members are among the president's strongest supporters you asked me how he was doing in order to second a member of the doing very well recent polls show a growing number of americans close to seven percent support more gun control even as the n.r.a. is fund raising reached record highs following the park on forty four city some parents of children killed in that shooting are here to protest the gun lobby bench

and they say the president's attendance and its failure to deliver on promises only deepen their pain. castro al-jazeera doubtless. now argentina's paso currency has rebounded off of the government's hike interest rates again this time to forty percent to counter a plunge and its value of the drastic measures have been taken to try to prevent another economic crisis and reports now from buenos aires. these are nervous times in argentina. ministers were quick to reassure markets and carman anxious population their economic policies are on track they said there's nothing to worry about the config story gets me and the economy in the context of a growing economy and with rising employment and less poverty we have an argentina that will keep growing for many years to come but we have never seen such a big drop in public spending. but soothing words are not enough and the argentine

central bank took the drastic step of raising its key borrowing rates to forty percent the third rise in a week it's to boost the base so that this year has lost fifteen percent of its value against the u.s. dollar that creates inflation which the country has suffered plenty of in recent years this is nothing new in argentina but that doesn't make the frets of an economic crisis any easier it's a bad if everybody nervously watching the interest in currency exchange rates knowing that the impact of any economic meltdown is brutal. many are still traumatized by the economic crisis of two thousand and one two thousand and two when argentina defaulted on sovereign debts of ninety three billion dollars savers were refused access to their own bank accounts a millions were plunged into poverty. something here it's coming again others believe it can't happen again nothing so that instead of going no where walking on

the brink that's what it seems like to me. in two thousand and one the economy was dollar dies and all deposits had to be turned in dollars but it's not like that now the banks have pesos and won't have the same problems in terms of the community when the president came to power two and a half years ago he promised to make argentina what he called a normal country after years of economic turmoil it's still not clear how close argentina are is to achieving that normality will have to follow over the next days and weeks how this very high. interest rates will affect. not only the massive market which probably will give some breather but also how the economy will respond to it consumption investments and so forth as it is very difficult to maintain such high interest rates for long term. inflation is still high and investment is lower than many expected continues hoping praying the president's promise is still on

track. when osiris. joining us now from new york is vanessa newman the founder and c.e.o. of asymmetric up political risk consultancy firm focusing on lots in america he's also an associate at the columbia university seminar on latin america and that's a good to have you with us was this the right move by the central bank. thank you so much for having me on why yes unfortunately it's an inevitable move move of the central bank to sort of compensate for the inflation what you're seeing happening in argentina is really the deregulation of an economy that was artificially maintained really under the cuban regime the to care of right the husband and then the wife and that was very subsidized very controlled very paternalistic on the one hand and then on the other hand you also see that there were also who had been receiving a lot of money from where this were so is that country has imploded it has had repercussions throughout the region so in market it faces

a lot of internal opposition so those three things you know they're the deregulation of more of a free market economy the collapse of venezuela and the political strife of markedly who does not have complete political dominance within his own country has meant for some political turmoil and that's what has caused has triggered the inflation and so therefore he has to bring the the the interest rates up to match it ok so we know that mockery has got in place this pro market economic reform program like you say it's really very much a shift away from the protectionist policies that's already happening in the country but how is this crane to affect ordinary people in argentina. well the way a little unfair to ordinary people is fortunately it's it will be most difficult for small and medium sized businesses and it will be most difficult for people have

a great deal of personal debt people who currently have mortgages their mortgage interest rates will not go up until the new mortgages so people who are currently in the housing market going to buy or take out a new mortgages will be hit by this by this inflation and by this rate hike as will people will have you know a bank loans and credit card debt it will also harm small and medium sized businesses who don't have really negotiating power with the banks and large multinationals or norma's conglomerates have stronger negotiating power won't be as hard hit it will also harm importers and it will harm people will have a labor force that's the nominated in dollars but it will benefit exporters so if argentina will have to push its export market unfortunately still to this day most of argentina is export market is is is basically commodities they have tried hard to get more into satellite and telecommunications and banking in the service

industry but that's denominated in dollars so that's a little bit of a setback for that for that segment of the economy. but it's but it's a it's a good thing for exporters unfortunately argentina is entering into winter and exporters exports of commodities go down in the winter and what it was to be a tough few months and i want to very quickly all on the investor aspect of this there is talk of the fact that some people are going to be shifting now from the peasant to dollars so who really stands to benefit here. who really stands to benefit anybody who has obviously government connections or. conglomerate that can that can shift a dollar so foreign investors in so far as they can they can shift there or there are local payments into pesos and still charge other their exports and their other

revenue streams and dollars and pay their local labor force. in pairs so that there are those issue drive a new boost to to the detriment of the average labor force unfortunately i can finesse newman thank you so much for your time. the police in mexico city say poor working conditions mean they're struggling to find crime as fun and surges in the capital offices have told al-jazeera that they often have to buy their own supplies including bullets from home and reports. corrupt inefficient and in some cases even in league with crime not surprisingly many mexican simply don't trust the police offices. another side of the story a survey of most founds of policemen and women found that many especially at municipal level a badly paid lack the basic equipment to do the job this office in one of the most

violent towns in the country told us they aren't supplied with enough bullets regularly have to buy their own them. it's not just alms elsewhere francisco escovedo had to retire of the damaging his spine push starting his police truck every morning he says he spent a year asking superiors for a new battery to implement and they were told me the same he says put up with it or buy one yourself n.-g. o. counseling commune who surveyed offices across the country found some police paying for uniforms car repairs and petrol all out of their own low salaries so if you could have police that badly trained and not paid the right amount what are the implications for society in general in mexico well if you get paid like two hundred bucks a month and an ice time constitutes one thousand a month of course you have to take for many those few other ways to get ahead more

than two thirds of police surveyed had never been promoted. officer is my old ramos told us that in many cases the only way to get a step up is to pay superior officers it's called the quota but here we have intermediate positions superior positions and the old costs are pending on the position they want and it's legal of course is the legal but that's a system in the mexico city limits because city police force todo dizzier they didn't know that any such cases although the quota isn't present in every force other miniscule policeman told us they have to pay not for promotion but to get a car will decide where they patrol they said the systematic corruption leads to some offices extorting the population to pay their own superiors which in turn leads to the mix compiled like this trusting the police it's a vicious cycle and it's happening just at the wrong time it's commercial levels of the highest in two decades and the country needs a strong respected force to deal with and those for the police who are trying to

stay honest is my rameau's has twenty years experience to decorations to bravery in the monsters in public security but he's been assigned the job he says of the new recruit guarding a metro station john home and how does it make scary city. that events are taking place around the world to mock the two hundredth anniversary of the birth of col mocks the philosopher and revelation a socialist was born in eighteen eighteen tria in western germany marx grew up in the shadow of the french revolution and was active in challenging political and cultural establishments all the time the radical nature of his writing saw him expelled from germany france and belgium and his best remembered for the communist manifesto and das kapital spelling out his view off capitalism he didn't live to see his ideas come into practice although they were to form the basis of communism

and as paul brennan reports trigg has been embracing his legacy. karl marx is everywhere in tree here his face is on posters his name is on street signs his image is even on the traffic lights tourists are flocking to the house where he was born and to coincide with the bicentenary three new exhibitions are opening here to examine marx's life and his pioneering work in political theory and economics marxist this weekend and marx is such an important thinker because he connected an analyst society and a developing capitalist production in a way no one else did so intensely it is especially that connection at first significant even though it now seems self-evident and we can learn to do the same thing today for our circumstances because we live in complicated times translated into dozens of languages marx's communist manifesto change the world it inspired revolutions in china russia cambodia and cuba and profoundly influenced modern day

social democrats across europe and beyond his prediction the communism would inevitably overthrow capitalism has since been proved wrong but marx is analysis of the unequal relationship between workers and capitalist bosses remains relevant to this day germany has a somewhat ambivalent attitude towards marx but in three air he has embraced in a way that the man himself may not have appreciated the bicentennial of the godfather of communism is actually turning into something of a capitalist bonanza for the town of thread here in the souvenir shops as a whole variety of car marks products on sale kamarck books commerce clearings a money box a mug even a car marks rubber duck and here look a column marked wine naturally it's a red wine. perhaps this image appropriation proves that his analysis was actually correct. he would see his theories is being confirmed because he wrote that everything becomes good so merchandise and capitalism now he self has become the

dice marx's image is certainly iconic his profile instantly recognizable of marx's funeral friedrich engels eulogized his name will enjoy through the ages and so also will his work it certainly has pulled brennan al-jazeera. the fiftieth anniversary of the main one nine hundred sixty eight protest in paris is being marked by nationwide exhibitions showing the role art and slogans played in driving support the uprising by students and workers almost overthrew the conservative government of general sheilds to call it seen as a landmark moment in the country's modern history that has more. plastered on walls across paris were posters that became the emblems of the main one nine hundred sixty eight uprising images and slogans that inspired students and workers as they protested against the government and turned the city into

he works. coordinated through my name is called it a bonsai craftsman. i was a mechanic at toyota before this i had nothing to do with it until one day i visited a grower and as soon as i set foot into his place i knew instantly that i was going to quit my job and start working with. bonsai is grown in a pot but cultivating it also involves creating trees that inspire scene resent the natural world. and. i find beauty in trees when they're healthy and full of life instead of in the shape. i used to be very ambitious in how i transform the trees some of which were the most admired and respected in japan but when i turned thirty seven i realized how much i had damaged

them and then suddenly i heard their screams saying we're alive just like you i felt strangled this experience changed me completely. i try to understand what the best conditions are for each tree and deciding on the spot what i need to do now what i shouldn't do and what can't wait. the trees taught me not to force my own a statics upon them that's why i study hard to understand how the trees the sun and the wind can best work together. i give them only moderate amounts of water and fertilizer it encourages the trees to grow the roots out. it's important to give them the strength to survive and thrive on their own. some are more than a thousand years old the junipers are around four to five hundred years old it's astonishing but i'm equally moved by the life force of plants growing from the

seeds or cuttings. the trees grow into certain shapes to thrive and i respect that what i try to do is bring out their beauty so that more people can appreciate and take good care of them i think that's the job of a craftsman even if they're highly valued i wouldn't say that they're true bonsai unless your heart feels at peace looking at them. you'd give the trees all your love and pass them on because they will outlive you by hundreds and thousands of years. all that's it for this news hour i'm really mahamed sorry navigator is here with another full bulletin that's watching by. rewind returns with a new series i can bring your people back to life from start and brand new updates
