a moment i am aware of the responsibility that i assume in such a complex political moment in our country and what i can say is that apart from been totally aware of it i am going to face all our country's challenges with humility and commitment and above all with a lot of determination first to transform and modernize our country which is what the socialist party has always done when we have been in the government and secondly to attend the urgent social matters of many people living in precarious conditions and suffering from inequality i am going to do it with consensus with humility hard work and commitment from. the head of the socialist party pushed for friday's no confidence motion and won by a large margin m.p.'s from six different parties voted overwhelmingly to oust marianna will and his center right people's party from office the head of the vote apologize for his politics past mistakes they look at the most it has been an honor

remained defiant accusing sanchez of political opportunism spain's new prime minister will have to unite the country's french a parliament will be the leader of a minority government and need the support of rival political parties to pass crucial legislation sanchez inherits a troubled economy and political instability over the future of catalonia where the independence movement remains strong he's also under pressure from other parties to cool new elections as soon as possible sanchez is now spain's seventh prime minister since his return to democracy in the one nine hundred seventy s. but his hold on power faces immediate challenges. madrid. meanwhile in germany prosecutors there are filed a formal request to extradite the deposed catalan leader collars pushed him on to spain pushed him and was detained in march on a european arrest warrant for his role in catalonia failed independence last year he's facing charges of rebellion and corruption if he's found guilty could spend up

to thirty years in prison. the european union is to trigger a legal challenge at the world trade organization in response to u.s. tariffs on steel and aluminum they you along with canada and mexico valder tallaght ary measures in washington earlier a spokesman for the head of the w.t.f. address the concerns. were it was real he was heading yes three and four more ministerial gathering in the margins of the you know you see the meetings and i can quote what he said yesterday he said the rising trade tensions on the risk of escalation are very real concern is that it is suppose it if he said that members are talking to each other and taking up their concerns at the w.t.r. the system was built to resolve these problems in a way that prevents further escalation we have done so very successfully on many previous occasions and stand ready to play this role once again but the european

trade commissioner says that the terrorists are further weakened transatlantic relations. we have been very clear about the consequences of doing this the european union will today sent. a request for consultations and later appended to the w two of the countries where as one we are determined to protect the multilateral system the w t o is not perfect but we have constructed this together with our american partners and we are expecting everybody to play by the rules where the u.s. administration's announcement has seen financial markets react with fears of a global trade war kimberly how could reports now from washington. u.s. commerce secretary wilbur ross made the announcement from paris where he was attending an annual trade forum. tariffs of twenty five percent on steel and ten percent on aluminum imports into the united states from canada mexico and the

european union all go into effect friday the move potentially sets in motion a trade war with some of the united states' most important allies a claim the u.s. commerce secretary brushed off everybody has a remeron again very firmly every country with others whose worthing weird about. it will get over it in due course in brussels the head of the european commission called it a bad day for world trade promising counter measures that could include retaliate tory tariffs u.s. goods into the e.u. on everything from blue jeans to motorcycles what they can do we are able to do exactly. the same it's totally up to the it conked we look for measures when it comes to. create france's junior trade minister

promised a similar response suggesting the u.s. president may be misinformed. no one will forget that issue that comes a point when one needs to look at the figures and i'm surprised that maybe president trump stops haven't shown him how much those european companies have invested in the united states created jobs that to assemble and produce that now those u.s. jobs could be at risk just as president donald trump seeks to fulfill one of his top campaign promises to protect the jobs of his supporters in america's steel and aluminum manufacturing sectors it's not just international partners criticizing donald trump's decision to oppose steel and aluminum tariffs on top u.s. allies domestically members of president trump's own republican party are also criticizing him fear of the effects of a global trade war despite white house efforts to downplay those concerns can

really help get al-jazeera at the white house but we've been speaking to fairly plug rain who is a former advisor to the world trade organization and he says that overall president trump seems to be looking for a fight. obviously hitting your allies with tariffs on steel and i million is one thing he's also setting a much bigger deal which is that tariffs on cars and then just this week had his on off trade war with china seems to be back on again so that the overall picture is that he seems to be looking for a fight the b.t.o. does allow an exemption for national security and that is the bogus claim that trump is relying on that he needs to keep out foreign steel from its allies on national security grounds this is nonsense you know you can see american

lockheed jets rely on cat canadian steel so if anything open trade. it bolsters american defense and the notion that the european union most of whose members are in nato are somehow a security threat to the u.s. is is true for the obvious you know though it's a poisoned chalice i mean if it were to rule against the u.s. and say that actually. it's it was misusing the national security clause the threat is that trump could pull the u.s. out of that obvious show altogether something he's previously threatened to do if on the other hand it. failed to slap down the u.s. it would be open season for other countries to use national security as a pretext for limiting trade in all sorts of other areas. and one more piece of economic news from the united states u.s. unemployment has fallen to three point eight percent for the month of may and that

is the lowest for eighteen years it adds two hundred twenty three thousand jobs to the latest job figures and coming out of the united states still to come on this al-jazeera news we have. to travel to washington to deliver a. special delivery from north korea we'll have the latest on preparations for a summit with donald trump. minding pakistan's affairs until july a caretaker government is sworn in. and heads up it's tough being this ball boy at the french open that's coming up with in school. the prime minister of italy his first populist government is due to be sworn in within the next hour. is leading a coalition of the anti establishment five star movement and the far right party

and their agreement to work together and three months of political dread deadlock and the threat of another election let's go live now to rome and our correspondent . there is a government ready to be sworn in and start work but how on earth are these disparate parties likely to work together. well it's very hard to predict smart scene in about an hour from now that cabinet will be sworn in at the quirin ali palace with the president. and then there will shortly afterwards be a bell ringing ceremony where the outgoing prime minister paolo gentle loney hun's over to his epic onto this law professor who's allied with the five star movement he's not a professional politician one indicator of the unusual nature of this government which being called western europe's first populist government it's virtually the same as the one which we thought we were going to have almost a week ago but then. picked for economy minister paulose of owner was basically

vetoed by the president instead we're now getting somebody called giovanni as economy minister he is also a euro skeptic but unlike mistress of owner he hasn't specifically said that italy should consider leaving the euro currency but he has been very critical of germany some people wonder whether how much trouble he can cause in europe a lot of people here are asking where will the money come for their promises people like her much tell you salvini that you interior minister and head of the far right league party have said they want to kick out hundreds of thousands of so-called illegal immigrants setting up detention centers around the country luigi dimaio the head of the five star movement wants to establish a guaranteed basic universal income all the while they want to cut taxes also there's a question of european policy now although i was saying mr sevan owner who

advocated leaving the euro at one stage is not in the top economy minister position there is still questions to be answered here about how much change italy will push for and the voters themselves certainly i'm not in love with the currency. it's a popular. place for local shoppers an interest wanting a taste of italy but at this market in rome there's one thing that's not so popular and that's the currency they've used for the last sixty years oberto is a pensioner who gets six hundred euros per month he and his friends who meet here every day so a ditch in the lira has brought nothing but problems that would never know it well yeah it was supposed to be two thousand lire to the euro but what used to cost the house and lira suddenly became so somebody stole how to borrow money. but what about the so-called nuclear option that scared the financial markets lately in other words italy leaving the eurozone not everyone is prepared to press the button

. it is no no i don't think we should leave but we should renegotiate so we're not bowing our heads to germany upper left you know i'd be ok with trying to leave the euro but of course things could get even worse it's not hard to find italians who will tell you the euro has been bad for the country and bad for their own finances but many of the same people say that it would be a bad idea for italy to scrap the currency and that's a nuance that italy's politicians are well aware of. the issue of euro zone membership was largely avoided in the run up to the general election in march this financial expert says it should not be to boom to talk about quitting the euro if you see clearly i'm going to leave the euro. the markets will attack you strongly. we would finish as the greece at the

opposite you have to. be. in order to exit from euro not saying clearly. and some italians already to back any party promising to get rid of the single currency people like danielle a friend whose father set up a butcher's shop here fifty years ago. if there was a politician trying to get a spike to where we were he'd get my vote but certainly the euro is something many italians love to hate but there are a few people here think it's going to disappear any time soon barbara al-jazeera will on saturday it really celebrates republic day and here in the capital there'll be a big military parade attended by many of those new ministers early next week we think they will pass a vote of confidence in parliament and of course that's where the real work has to be done they have to overcome divisions and rivalries between parties to push through those changes that they promised they deem barbara live in very thank you

very much indeed now we're going to return to the other new government that europe has got today and that of course is in spain where there is a new prime minister mariano rajoy a voted out losing a vote of confidence in parliament we can now speak to simon who is assistant professor at the school of politics and international studies at the university of nottingham he's also a member of the european consortium of political research he's joining us live from london so we were just hearing about the possible difficulties of of the new government in italy tell us about the possible challenges then for this new comer general sanchez he has a small number of seats in the three hundred fifty seat parliament not just eighty four how is he going to manage. well it's going to be very difficult he's the leader of a party which is very weak in parliament as you said only eighty four seats so he's well short of

a majority in order to prop up the government and to. basically introduce legislation he's going to rely on the support of a half dozen other political parties including the left wing populist party pull demos as well as a. different number of regional this political parties from catalonia the basque country and balance here so he's going to have a very difficult time maintaining a stable government and introducing legislation at an effective rate that's going to be his most important it's interesting is there isn't a constitutional. an element of the constitution that the party that means for the nation of no confidence then must be prepared to govern the matter the representation it has in parliament however now it's teamed up with these other disparate groups in the spanish political landscape what will put damus the leftists like them what will they be requiring of him not to mention the other

parties because he will have to pay back its favors. that's right well the main thing that all of the parties that supported the motion of no confidence have wanted to oust the popular party from office. the put their most raw on the elections on a anti establishment and to corruption platform so one of its main goals is to. root out corruption where it exists in spain and one of the first ways of doing that of course is to not only see those who are responsible brought to justice tried and charged but also to remove the political party which has been tainted by corruption so that's one of itself. most objective sort of has been met no doubt probably most will try to influence the socialist parties legislative agenda in terms of the types of reforms that are required to tackle the root causes of

corruption so that has a lot to do with the regulation of businesses has a lot to do with the financing of political parties as well as the regulation of the judiciary the other political parties will want to see what they can obtain from the socialist party in terms of resources and more autonomy that's certainly what the about six in the catalogs will want from this deal you mention the castle and we learn that within the last hour or so that prosecutors in germany have now launched a formal request for the extradition of colors pushed him onto course the man who led the independent spirit that was deemed illegal by madrid what is the position of the socialists and particular mr perez with regard to castle and independence. well the socialist party remains opposed to catalan the independence it was opposed to the referendum while the referendum took place so there remains

a very important distance between the socialist party and the catalan nationalists and in particular those who are seeking independence and i don't think that they are going to be able to come to an agreement on that what they might be able to do though is to foster the type of dialogue which the catalans were wanting to receive from the central government in madrid. to try in reform the constitution the catalogue constitution so that catalan is recognised as a distinct nation and so the cattle on gets a better fiscal deal from from the central government those channels of negotiations might now be open given that the capital nationalists have supported the socialist party and the socialist party certainly has intimated that it's willing to engage in dialogue with those cattle on partners so while i don't think we're going to see any. now ring of the differences on the independence

question what we might see is the end of the period of political tension that we've seen since last october deescalation of that tension a resumption of the capital on autonomous community government better control of its own finances and the beginnings of some kind of dialogue over the future place of catalonia within the federal. of spain interesting times in spain thank you very much simon. now the north korean leader is right hand man is currently heading to the u.s. capitol to deliver a letter from kim jong il to president trump that kim young child's trip to washington comes after what the u.s. secretary of state called great progress made during their talks in new york from where our diplomatic editor james bass now reports. a second day of intense diplomacy between the u.s. secretary of state and the north korean envoy who met for almost two and

a half hour as reporters watched the comings and goings of the apartment block where the u.s. government owns a residence on the thirty ninth floor state department officials were very cautious in what they said but one man was not as restrained the u.s. president he spoke as the meeting was still under way revealing for the first time that general kim will now head to the white house good morning i just want to tell you we're doing very well with north korea our secretary of state has had very good meetings he's meeting again today. i believe they'll be coming down to washington on friday and a letter is going to be delivered to me from him john. the president said the summit in singapore if it takes place could be the first of perhaps two or three meetings between him and kim jong un later secretary pump aoe sidestepped questions

about whether the two sides have the same definition of denuclearization and seemed well aware of the scale of the challenge ahead this is going to be a process that will take days and weeks to work our way through there will be tough moments there will be difficult times i've had some difficult conversations with them as well. they've given right back to me to reporters had been led to believe that these crucial negotiations would only be taking place here at this apartment block in new york but now there is another phase and an unpredictable elements president trump himself at the white house general kim is carrying a letter which he will open there from his leader kim jong un james zero new york meanwhile pieces have resumed in the demilitarized zone the devise north and south korea the delegations agreed to to discuss reuniting families separated since the korean war of the one nine hundred fifty s.

when haye has more from the south korean capital seoul. after the fanfare of the leaders' summit this was the two koreas getting down to work senior representatives from the north crossed the border at the demilitarized zone to meet the delegation from the south the aim was to begin implementing what their leaders had discussed. we should in front of all the media here take on and follow the will of the leaders the leaders are walking far ahead of us why can't we follow them they did agreeing to set up a joint liaison office at the case on industrial complex just north of the border that's been closed since two thousand and sixteen following the north's missile and nuclear tests what will the most of us and north came to shared a common understanding of the basics trust respect and mutual understanding that the two leaders showed they've also agreed to consider staging an event on june the fifteenth to mark the anniversary of the first into korean summit eighteen years ago the talks between the two koreas have been positive and practical steps appear

to have been taken towards improving relations but much depends on whether a potential summit between u.s. president donald trump and north korean leader kim jong un takes place and if it does what the outcome may be as we've seen recently the situation is changeable. friday's meeting was supposed to be held two weeks ago but the north koreans withdrew in protest over joint military exercises being held by south korea and the united states a few days later donald trump withdrew from a proposed summit with kim jong un citing tremendous anger and open hostility from pyongyang but after kim and south korea's president moon julian had a surprise second meeting last week all sides are once again working towards a kim trump summit on june the twelfth wayne hay al-jazeera sole. the red cross is sending two teams of surgeons as well as medical supplies to gaza to treat people who was shot by israeli soldiers one hundred fifteen palestinians were

killed and thirteen thousand wounded since border protests began at the end of march the red cross says gaza's health system is on the verge of collapse. millions of syrians displaced by the war are at risk of losing their homes or property law allows the government to seize property property if people can't prove ownership then a holder has more from lebanon's bekaa valley. is afraid that her stay in lebanon could become permanent she fled the war in syria in two thousand and thirteen her hometown is now under government control she says the army hasn't allowed civilians to return yet and a new law passed by the syrian government is threatening to confiscate homes of those people who don't prove ownership. i don't even know if we still have a house or if it was destroyed and when we fled we left with nothing so i don't have any documents with me there are millions of syrians like him ahmed who escaped

from the fighting with nothing number ten as it is known means they may be stuck in exile international aid agencies say just nine percent of refugees and displaced have their property title deeds with them this is worrying host nations like lebanon where there are over one million refugees. it's very worrying because when things that would encourage the displaced or investment to come back to their country not measures to discourage them from the syrian government says the new law is needed to begin the reconstruction of areas damaged by war human rights groups disagree they say damascus passed similar laws in two thousand and twelve to confiscate property without due process or compensation many syrian refugees no longer have valid identity documents they will not be able to prepare the types of case files that they will need to show that they are property owners within the

timeframe that has been given under law number ten. the syrian opposition says the law is part of the government's efforts to bring about demographic changes by repopulating areas with loyalists. many of the refugees in lebanon come from areas that were battlegrounds under rebel control before being we captured by the government places like the damascus countryside homs and the color mon region they may be considered safe by some but political economic and security reasons prevent others from returning and now the law is an obstacle to those who want to go back home even if it means living under bashar assad to rule mohamed farah said how is one of them his hometown has been all but destroyed and he has no documents to prove ownership of his land. that i'm doing i don't have any papers i don't even know my property number that is because i inherited it from my father i don't know if my house is still standing i have nothing but god it's estimated up to fifty

percent of syrian land was not officially registered before the war for many permanent displacement is becoming a reality so that it could become fairly lebannon. and it's time for us to take a look at the weather now richard theron there is lots of orange and red behind you richard which i suppose the good side of weather conditions if you like a hot martine yeah behind me you can see those bright colors indicating some really warm weather across many parts of europe particularly across more western areas and yes fine conditions for people in bergen for instance taking to the sea to cool off enough to cool off or often in bergen but temperatures have been well up and so that's been a good side of things but when you get the temperatures and when you've got humidity those two acts in together result in some really quite severe weather conditions and thus what we've seen these shows coming from southern germany where flooding has been quite extensive from really severe thunderstorms there is a massive energy in the atmosphere i can't really do it justice if you do an engine

search and go lightning strikes europe to be able to find some ups come up in europe is lit up like a christmas tree at the moment it really is very impressive indeed and i think it's going to get worse before it gets better now run the satellite imagery here just keep an eye on the little area there there it goes and just in the case in that in southeastern parts of austria things are really kicking off at the moment around gretz now show the analysis doesn't really show much what we've got though it's just a series of trough of low pressure areas where these shower clouds can develop unturned as something really nasty so although in these graphics it doesn't look that bad a bit of rain but under almost every area of blue is potential for a really severe storm which means damaging hail which means to wrench your rain and also the risk of some flash flooding which is of course a threat both life and limb. thank you very much. to everyone.

that exploits. here with the. take a look at the top stories spain has a new prime minister after mariano rajoy last apology vote of confidence and six and a half years in his replacement. is leader of the socialist party the opposition force the vote after members of the voice conservative people's party was jailed for

corruption. the prime minister of italy his first populist government is due to be sworn in in a few minutes to end months of political deadlock giuseppi county is leading a coalition of the end establishment five star movement and the far right party. the european union has launched a legal challenge at the world trade organization to the u.s. tariffs on steel and imports the european trade commissioner says the terrorists are further weakening transatlantic relations. their reaction to the white house action is particularly strong in canada and mexico both partners with the u.s. in the nafta deal that's a north american free trade agreement john homa reports from mexico city. of to be us put the squeeze on trading on those mexico and canada imposing steel tariffs retaliation quickly followed both the. u.s.

supports these tariffs are totally unacceptable canadian prime minister justin trudeau and his foreign minister chrystia freeland denounce the us is actions this is sixteen point six billion dollars of retaliation this is the strongest trade action canada has taken in the post-war era mexico's economy minister the worst case scenario and said the country would put tariffs on some u.s. steel products grow. spoke in cheese today we take action at the moment to compensate sacked li he did that mission for mexican exports on this dilemma but this dispute was the last thing either country wanted with a powerful and until recently mostly friendly neighbor the kind of the terrorists will hit particularly hard about ninety percent of it still heads south of the

border it's the us is biggest supplier but mexico also is one of the top exporters of steel to be united states despite that both it's going canada insist trade flow still works in the us is favor to them the decision by the troubled ministration just doesn't make sense michael vick is no economic justification at the end of the day you see that mexico has a deficit with the u.s. in any lineaments deal that we can see even more from them than we moreover in sectors that are essential for their company but there's another element to this washington's insistence the three countries of renegotiating the nafta free trade agreement the u.s. want to see more concessions from mexico and canada they both emphasize that they still came to talk but added that there retaliatory measures will remain in place as long as the u.s. terrorists to join homan al-jazeera mexico city and nicaragua as neighbors as well as countries across the americas are calling for an end to the killing of

antigovernment protests at least sixteen people have died since wednesday more than one hundred have died in the past two months president danny a latte there has accused is accused of ordering snipers and armed groups to shoot a protest says who are demanding his resignation from the capital managua man while the apollo reports. on the streets of managua gunmen opened fire on anti-government protesters in the nicaraguan capital many demonstrators took shelter in a nearby cathedral went up at first were inside the cathedral then we went outside and saw how the shootings took place in cold blood right in front of the cathedral . in this but it nicaraguan farmer who traveled to my now i want to take part in the demonstrations says even under the care of faith leaders he still fears that more attacks are coming it's not that. we're going through a repression despite staying at the cathedral because these people don't respect anyone that respects free still human rights only god can help us here. it's not

the first time police officers have fired on demonstrators standing on the grounds of this cathedral since the unrest began nearly six weeks ago pro-government paramilitary groups continue to face off with protesters some wielding homemade mortars demand barricades and keep a close watch over who they allow pass snipers an armed groups believed to be under the command of president daniel ortega left at least sixteen people dead and another seventy nine injured after a protest that drew nearly half a million people to the streets of managua president ordered to go however continues to deny any involvement in the violence in my. humanitarian organizations have condemned the government crackdown on dissenters. of amnesty international says the evidence of human rights abuses by the government is clear they use of these paramilitary groups to create a cost the use of. police the use of lethal force by police i mean we

saw the sniper you know very well positioned it is stadium ready to kill people some of the pattern start we have seen and and that make a speech that this is so systematic and so intentional that it's becoming a policy to shoot to kill or. despite the government agreeing to allow an independent commission to investigate the violence of the past six weeks the political unrest sneak out i will shows no sign of ending soon there have been about one hundred confirmed deaths since the start of the crisis and up until. managua. nationwide protests have been held in argentina calling for the decriminalisation of abortion. the demand follow months of televised hearings on whether or not to allow women to terminate pregnancies within the first forty weeks a congressional committee is user vote on the proposed change to the law which both

houses of parliament would also have to approve to raise a boat ripples from what osiris. it's the last day of the abortion hearings in argentina and those who want to legalize it demonstrated in congress wearing as always the color green that's become a symbol of the national campaign for free legal and safe abortions a minute. and yet we have been fighting for many years for something like this to happen to separate the state from the church and to the side based on what's better for the country in the past decade we have seen a few reasons for aggressive reform in argentina like gay marriage and sexual education policies but until now abortion has been off the table mainly because of the pressure by the catholic church in the past two months we have seen over seven hundred people coming here to congress to express their views for and against abortion the debate has polarized the country abortion in argentina is legal only

in case of rape or if a woman's life is had risk but it is estimated that four hundred thousand planned the stine abortions are performed every year many women have died most of them are poor the outcome of any vote is by no means certain. and there i have to defend the right to life that is in our constitution and i cannot go against the right to life since conception but if you ask me if you want a woman to go to prison because of an abortion i say no i think we can protect them in a different way if they want. this public debate has promoted the visibility of a problem a consequence. that it helps the healthy. also szell sectors to begin talking about sexual education educate about contraception and prevent abortions precedent. is against a change in the law but he allowed the debate defying the pressure from the catholic church. some bishops have been very aggressive with lawmakers where they have threatened those who are planning to vote in favor they generate fear they remain

authoritarian but it's because they know they will lose. over the past fifteen years the campaign to legalize abortion has presented six bills on six different locations but no one made it to congress many hope it will be different this time. and. the u.n. security council has given south sudan's warring factions a month to reach a peace deal or face possible sanctions the security council voted to adopt a u.s. drafted resolution that threatens an arms embargo in an effort to end the five year civil war six countries including is here and china abstained morgan has more now from south sudan's capital juba. nine countries have voted in favor of renewal of sanctions against south sudan officials and six countries have abstained now to get those votes the u.s. which has been pushing for the votes had to water down there was a lucia and did not get what they wanted what they wanted was harsher sanctions

more officials and falsehood in which they have accused of derailing the peace process and those officials including the minister of cabinet the fares as well as the minister of defense what they got instead was a forty five day technical rollover of the existing sanctions and that the secretary children general should report within thirty days about violence in the country as well as a political agreement now to reach a political agreement in south sudan seems like a bit of a tough challenge the. intergovernmental authority on development which is a regional bloc which has been trying to mediate between the warring sides have had several rounds of peace talks between the different warring sides and all round including the last one which ended on the twenty third of may fail to produce any results and to bridge the gap between the different working parties so at the moment the u.s. the u.s. seems to think that what they have done is better than at the u.n. security council is better than nothing but what they are hoping for after the forty five day period is that they would be able to push for stronger sanctions

should there be no peace in south sudan so a new museum in south africa has quickly become a top tourist attraction but the collection of contemporary african art in cape town is also causing controversy among local artists and critics malcolm webb explains. it's the first of its kind in africa and the biggest this lights museum of contemporary art in cape town is in an old silo concrete sheaves that once stored grain has been cut away to house the world's largest collection of african art it's attracted and impressed lovers from all over the world. i'm so excited to. since you're. here my heart. not only my but. it's open last year where he draws three thousand visitors a day it's galleries are spread over ninth rules they display the private

collection of german billionaire philanthropist york and zite he's bought artworks from all over the continent and led them to the museum on top of the building is a hotel rooms that cost as much as twelve thousand dollars a night it's on cape town's waterfront which is home to some of the continent's most expensive property there is popular with tourists and with wealthy south africans the people from the townships come here so some artists and critics say the putting that kind of institution in this kind of place isn't very inclusive but the provincial minister for tourism told us it's prominent helps african art position in an exclusive space beyond i waterfront but tourism destination in africa i mean what better place to put it if you want to really get artists to be exposed african or to be exposed so i think that weighs in inverse arguments. just outside the city in a township called langar he went to
