with the deaths of those migrants in the waters of turkey challenged ballots as a report. on the safety of land and back where they began after the nine metre boat sank leaving tuna zia bound for europe she knew a lizard a citizen a boat had a capacity for seventy five to ninety people maximum but we were between one hundred eighty and one hundred ninety on board. nearly seventy people were rescued by the two new zealand coast guard and brought to the city is farkas it's unclear exactly how many people are missing it's the most deadly ship break in the mediterranean since people are. illiterate a good goalie had a better water was coming into the boat those who could escape or fled others drowned we stayed there until almost five am then fisherman came to help us and the coast guard arrived. it was a dark night on the mediterranean some two thousand kilometers away three adults
2:03 am
and six children drowned off the coast of turkey the turkish coast guard pulled five people out alive. the toll of dead all missing in these waters is up to six hundred fifty people since january and yet it's a far cry from twenty fifteen when this was the name rooty europe more than a million people crossed and there were three times as many deaths most migrants now come through northern africa search and rescue n.g.o.s have diverted to deploy from italy all motor he says we are witnessing a decrease in arrivals in recent months this figure of the decrease does not stop us running into people who come are in terrible physical and psychological condition with. these with the latest arrivals more than one hundred fifty people reach south in sicily on friday we are here and we will perform. as long as we will be able to perform we are performing rescue and we would be performing in the future that is possible. and sometimes there is good news ten days

ago a baby was born on risky ship the aquarius at two point take kilograms she was named miracle the mother was found stranded off the coast of libya there now insistently . life or death the two outcomes migrants must consider the flu they blew the boat to europe shallop ballasts al-jazeera a right wing opposition party led by former prime minister younis young has won the most votes in salinas parliamentary election with more than ninety percent of the talents counted the slovenian democratic party out of state about twenty five percent of the vote going on to establishment parties training behind in second place with twelve percent of the ruling s.m.c. party came in third since no group secured a majority which means they'll have to be a coalition government. italy's new interior minister says the island of sicily will no longer be what he calls europe's refugee camp. who visited sicily on sunday
2:05 am
says his plans to deport illegal migrants are not hardline but common sense here as one of the main arrival points for migrants who make the perilous crossing from north africa. we're going to these are emergency centers my interest is to work in order to reduce the number of people arriving increase the number of deportations this isn't easy to do nor is it possible to do in a quarter of an hour but in the coming weeks we want to give new signals to cut costs and caught migrant attention generations. ago. as if to make a provocative point. italy's new interior minister turned up to one of the hot spots in italy's refugee crisis that is one of the. poor areas the points of a rival where refugees and asylum seekers turn the city apart salo in sicily there he said that he wanted to stop this from being europe's refugee center strong rhetoric as you well designed to appeal to his supporters but not everyone who
2:06 am
turned up to see him was necessarily convinced by his argument there were a handful of protesters there saying that really what was needed to be seen was the difficulties that people face exactly what it was that was driving them to italy in the first place and that is of course many of them fleeing war fleeing destitution and repression but of course mr salvini is keen to point out that this is a first move as the interior minister he wants to show italy and also to a certain extent the european union that he wants to play hardball with this here in the coming weeks pose to be meeting up in brussels with other european union interior ministers what he wants is renegotiation on the doppler accord that is to put an end to people turning up to the first e.u. member states and claiming asylum there he says that puts it in unfair position but whether he's able to do this in the face of of. of the european union is another matter let's take a closer look at the continuing flow of refugees trying to enter europe according
2:07 am
to the un migration agency over thirty two thousand undocumented people have entered europe by sea in twenty eight hundred of these about forty two percent arrived in italy which is witnessing a rising sentiment against immigrants thirty four percent of them landed in greece which is where the boat that capsized off turkey on sunday was heading and more than a half a million migrants and refugees traveled through slovenia on the way to other e.u. countries in twenty fifteen and sixteen that in a country of just two million gave rise to the anti immigrant s.t.'s party which as we just mentioned one sunday's parliamentary elections well let's bring in bill for the refugee rights program director at human rights watch he joins us on skype from colombia in the u.s. state of maryland bill how threatened do migrants feel by this changing political landscape in europe in many have made these dangerous journeys risking their lives but this isn't the europe they thought they were coming to. not of all the welcome
2:08 am
that had been proffered by and merkel in particular twenty fourteen that has really been rolled up particularly the western balkans states austria sweden has even imposed border controls much of the shrinking free movement . ethan listen europe has is really on the rocks and then they are stats and we are seeing the rise of populist parties in italy for example and today in slovenia this is the rhetoric of viktor orbán which a few years ago was a real outlier is now being picked up by a disturbing number of other countries in the region is there a feeling that europe is de centralizing its immigration policies and perhaps moving more so instability for migrants outwards to countries like turkey. absolutely i mean there's a sense of the centrifugal force here where there's everyone is pushing outward and
2:09 am
pushing away a european union that actually operated as a union that had suggested actually at one point a relocation scheme where dublin would in a sense be put on a more rational footing where responsibility for examining asylum claims would be based on the capacity of various european states to examine those claims and integrate refugees and to return those who actually don't have a right to remain. it could've been managed and still could be managed in a reasonable way and efficient way the wouldn't put the burden on in italy or greece but instead we're in germany for that matter which really does take the lion's share of the burden but. what really has happened has been a race to the bottom with everyone pushing and trying to impose border controls on
2:10 am
their own borders and and push people back to the neighboring countries and a large proportion of those migrants are now unwanted in these countries they find themselves in so so what are their concerns and how real are they i mean it's in his name interior minister matteo salvation is already talking about carrying out mass deportations of migrants. i want to sense the problem actually starts a step beyond that because there's this this process this essentially externalizing migration controls so that rather than have the controls taking place within the european union within the dublin regulation for example. there's this outward push and so the onus really falls on to libya which doesn't have a functioning government doesn't have refugee law it's not a party to the refugee convention or to turkey for example which is part of the e.u. turkey deal turkey already hosts the largest number of refugees the new country in
2:11 am
the world and yet it actually is the country that is most likely to be the dumping ground for the european union and what we're already seeing in turkey we've been documenting it for the last few months is their own push back in pushing refugees back into syria shooting them at the border beating this they try to cross into turkey from syria bill a final thought from you there are now accusations that these countries that you mentioned are perhaps politicizing what is a humanitarian issue so what needs to be done across europe to protect migrants and the rights they have to stay in these countries well i think it first is they have to be meaningful help to the countries of first arrival like lebanon like jordan like turkey to to make people feel safe in those places but when people do move forward and try to seek asylum in the european union there has to be a rational sharing of responsibility managing that and giving people fair hearings
2:12 am
that you can do that quickly you can do it efficiently you can remove people who don't have a right to be there but but still need to protect those people who have valid claims for protection and can't be sent back home to places where they will be persecuted in the lots of input danger thank you for talking to al-jazeera my pleasure. all right spencer more ahead here on the news hour including government workers face a backlash in nicaragua as weeks of protests showed no signs of letting up. our year long blockade against qatar is proving fruitful for neighbors like iran. and in support of brazilian striken name makes the perfect return from injury just in time for the world cup that's all still to come. now insulting and unacceptable that's how canada's prime minister justin trudeau described the new u.s.
2:13 am
tariffs on steel and aluminum imports president donald trump and the national security concerns as justification for the towers which he's also imposed on metal imports from mexico and the e.u. what kind of a plans to impose reciprocal measures on its southern neighbor first of all we're putting the same kinds of tariffs exactly on on steel and aluminum coming from the united states into canada to be directly reciprocal but we are also putting a number of tariffs on consumer goods finished products for which canadians have easy alternatives one of the either made in canada or made from another partner with the tariffs one of the truths about tariffs is they drive up costs for consumers and on top of that these tariffs are going to be hurting american workers and canadian work the idea that we are somehow a national security threat to the united states is quite frankly insulting and unacceptable auxerre as mike hanna joins us live now from washington d.c.
2:14 am
mike so the canadian prime minister extremely angry over those terror so what more have u.s. officials been saying. well he is very angry indeed the canadian prime minister along with other partners in that particular set of trade deals the european union and mexico all completely outraged at the new tariffs being set by the u.s. government but what is making them even more angry is the fact that that issue of national security is attached to these new terrorists being applied well there's no sense of compromise at all from the u.s. side in fact very much the opposite president trump's financial advisor larry kudlow doubled down on the contentious contention that this is a national security issue i don't think we're satisfied yet that they will protect or of hold all the chipman studio coming into canada from around the world could be china could be brazil could be
2:15 am
a lot of different places this trend shipping effort is something that has been troubling to us look the president has declared our steel industry a national security matter unlike other any signs of the standoff over tire of can be resolved any time soon well it doesn't appear so it appears that there's no wish to compromise from either side and this is a many fronted issue because of course we're also seeing the dispute brewing now with the chinese the commerce secretary speaking to the chinese or vice premier in the course of the day no agreement reached at that meeting in china threatening that it will to issue its own tariffs should the u.s. go ahead with its latest threat to apply new tariffs so it's on a number of fronts u.s. is in dispute with china it is in dispute with its allies like canada and the european union now all of this is likely to come to a head next week in canada when the leaders of the g. seven group of nations meet and certainly arch words hard words are likely to be
2:16 am
exchanged on this issue daryn mike thank you. ongoing violence and nicaragua as claymore lives off to another attack on to government demonstrators more than a hundred people have been killed since the start of a political crisis that began over proposed cuts to the country's social security system but have grown into cold for the resignation of president daniel ortega. has more on the nicaraguan capital. confrontations between anti-government protesters and paramilitary forces have left more dead in messiah following the killings tensions remain high as mass demonstrators managed barricades to block access into the city making our way to the scene of the violence we encountered several checkpoints demonstrators here are suspicious of anyone trying to pass the barricade ok moving slingshots and homemade mortar weapons opposition supporters say attacks by paramilitary groups loyal to president daniel ortega happen almost
2:17 am
every day. ordered me correctly as you to mock to death they used and against us weapons of war. arriving in the town of like concepcion we find a community divided local residents who support the government faced off with opponents door to me and everything was fine until the morning when the government's paramilitaries began to attack us for no reason but i mean that it. was demonstrators detained a local government worker beating him with clubs and nearly severing his ear with a machete he was carried into a nearby church where protesters accuse the thirty one year old who works for the office of the mayor of financing hit men who are targeting opposition supporters see the money for me and. they told me they are going to kill my family i said they're going to send a box to my family filled with my body parts. groet. when
2:18 am
i'm not in the balance from the political unrest has become common in this part of the country father in mind will says the church has assumed the responsibility of keeping the peace. our commitments to our faith means that we cannot be in difference in the needs of the people especially those who are being repressed and suffer injustice. i mean tempers flared during talks between local residents over who's to blame for starting the unrest argument at times because the physical. and you can't i was capital managua catholic bishops are hosting a third week of peace talks between civil society groups and representatives of president daniel ortega administration but progress has stalled the catholic church remains the main mediators in the ongoing political crisis but the archdiocese says they will no longer facilitate a national dialogue until the nicaraguan government can commit to putting an end to the violence and.
2:19 am
now al jazeera investigative reporters found that saudi arabia played a bigger role in causing the gulf crisis than previously thought the report shows the cell that had the website of the qatari news agency in may twenty seventeen worked from a saudi government ministry in the capital riyadh and the phones and computers were all connected to a saudi communication company the hacking of the qatar news agency led to the fallout between qatar and its gulf neighbors saudi arabia bahrain and the u.a.e. last june. a second french newspaper is reporting that saudi arabia is threatening military action against council if it acquires russian weapons le figaro says the saudi crown prince has written to u.s. president donald trump and british prime minister to resign made to warn that it's ready to retaliate if council requires the s four hundred defense system it was revealed he had written a similar letter the french president emmanuel micro on friday. of the moscow said
2:20 am
in january that his country intended to acquire the missile system below as a journalist and i'm a list with the gulf matters he says he doesn't think the saudi threat is serious to begins with going to macron and then to the washington then we're told to london why would you go to the russians this is a question that i don't understand which is that simply if you're upset about the russians selling this s. four hundred a very sophisticated anti missile defense system to the country is why don't you go to the russian and say look because the russians are already in a deal with the saudis on selling this system to the saudis they've already sold it to the turks for two point five billion they're in the process of doing a deal with the egyptians and the saudis can simply say if you go ahead with this. you don't have to deal with us i don't think the threat is that serious i think it's all part of the posturing that's going on and clearly whereas the outside
2:21 am
world the u.k. the europeans we hear the americans rather want to see this dispute settled. this saudis and the iraqis keep upping the ante i think the qataris have said look we'll sit down we'll have a conversation let's have a dialogue and they had to keeps getting pushed up by the saudis and the amorality so i think what we're seeing here is a bit of gamesmanship to put more pressure on qatar using this as weapons dealers as part of the. defense minister has warned against any confrontation with iran he says the twenty fifty nuclear deal should be worked on despite the u.s. pulling out of it in my own judgment i think the united states is wiser than to intervene in a war with iran maybe more pressure we are using and maybe it will get to our result but i think the five plus one is
2:22 am
a good outcome everyone should keep holding on this. advance with its know whether any third party is trying to push the region or some country in the region to start a war with iran this is will be very dangerous because i am sure no one from the western hemisphere or countries where you know protected by the western hemisphere will go directly with iran maybe they will try to push a lot of neighbors to go against iran and this is dangerous well the crisis created shortages and cattles food supply chain iran was one of the countries that stepped in to help fill that gap but as embers are the reports deepening ties between the two nations could prove problematic this family run farm near to herat has been selling produce to qatar for more than ten years it used to export two to three
2:23 am
truckloads of food to qatar a week since the blockade began demand has soared to two to three truckloads a day. farms like this all over iran have increased production to fill the gap in the country market after saudi arabia the u.a.e. and other countries severed supply routes what caused a shock in qatar is an opportunity for iranian businesses but so they are the knee of irani says profits are not the only reason exporters are keen to supply cut there's markets in the us coming up i'll buy me one i'm saying this from the bottom of my heart we like katarina people we don't feel that our neighboring countries and islamic countries are separate from us we consider them as a religious brothers and we are happy that this market exists for us to supply it it's embarrassing for us to say that we are helping qatar we are two brothers at one table and are eating from one table and we are happy that today qatari brothers are with us at one table. with business links all over the world the exporter says
2:24 am
the blockade is bad for everyone in the region and hopes it ends soon you can find a little bit of everything here fruits vegetables basic necessities being grown here in iran and will eventually end up in the homes of people living in qatar iran in qatar have had serious disagreements over the wars in syria and yemen and iranian support for hezbollah in lebanon but they speak with one voice in support of the palestinian people and share the world's largest natural gas field and in the last year disputes with saudi arabia have brought them closer together. we felt qatar was being treated unfairly so we opened our doors we let qatar airways use our airspace and we used five important ports in the south of the country to send our help relations with qatar have a bright horizon because our qatari friends are well aware about the intentions of our officials. abilify served as iran's ambassador to cutter he says both countries
2:25 am
can cooperate on much more but he admits for qatar the appearance of siding too openly with iran is tricky but there is home to the largest american air base in the middle east and u.s. central command headquarters cozying up to ron could also further anger blockading countries and escalate tensions even more. those leaders the last year has been a delicate balancing act but whatever happens next people living in qatar are unlikely to forget the neighbors willing to lend a hand when they needed it most. what tuesday will mock one year since the blockade the gas and we'll have a special program looking at the political economic and human impact of the crisis that's an eight hundred g.m.t. on tuesday here on al-jazeera. also to come here including forecasting a bright future kenya's hopes of a rags to riches story in one of its poorest regions. in the u.k. mobs money as since the deadly. killed eight people in london.

the right wing throughout the country want to hear lecturing and i think many analysts to me realize that the instability that this is creating is going to be no good for spain despite the fact that it is doing extremely well in economic terms compared to the rest of europe unemployment is still very very high especially amongst the youth so they want real policies they want a real budget they want real measures taken and it just doesn't appear that the mathematics are right politically ok there is time she has to come through with what the people want. kenya has launched a pilot scheme to export crude oil as part of efforts to capitalize on the country's reserves it's believed an estimated seven hundred fifty million barrels live beneath taconic county in the northwest of the first convoy of trucks carrying crude meant for export set off from the cha heading for the coastal city of mombasa on sunday. reports. a
