catalonia as president is meeting the jailed leaders of october's failed bid for session from spain. is visiting that i leaders a few days after his government was sworn in he was handpicked by the former president carter's push to mount dora is pushing for talks with spain's new prime minister pedro sanchez on the catalan region's future let's go live out of a trade office here is david chase or is there so what is the tour of the cattle. doing right now meeting these these people in prison. a journey where at the main prison about an hour outside madrid where five of the cattle and politicians are being held in free trial custody now kim tour i went in about an hour and a half ago to talk to them to examine their condition perhaps get get their advice on the the few weeks and days ahead and exactly what their tactics should be

but we'll be getting a press conference from him in about half an hour when he comes out so we'll be able to get a clear idea but essentially the two towers that he wanted to progress major the was to try and get the cattle on prisoners moved much closer to barcelona much much closer to their families because the families are facing a very long four hundred kilometer around journey they can only do it once a month they meet once a month behind a large glass screen and they talk on the telephone now this is really causing distress to the families to the wives and to these politicians themselves because the trial will not be held until the autumn so i was hoping very much to try and get the prisoners moved much closer to home and also of course a second task and that's a much more difficult one would be to try and get an amnesty. all that for all

these prisoners but the situation is very tense at the moment because the the window of opportunity is so short at the moment to try and get talks on the catalan crisis and. sun chess of course it's been like a house of cards the whole deck is on it's on the floor the moment the shuffling we haven't even got to a cabinet in madrid at the moment whereas kim torah is now the president of the region administration in barcelona and that's an ironic situation so no government in madrid or and the government in place in barcelona david if and when kim torah gets a meeting with the prime minister pederast sanchez is he likely to get a more sympathetic hearing on the catalonia issue that he would have done from his predecessor. that's for sure if he does get that meeting petro sanchez of course is in

a very difficult situation he's only got eighty four seats out of three hundred fifty in the parliament he doesn't have any sort of real mandate and you opened up with those pictures of the rally in madrid where most of the right wing sentiments hear him in spain is pushing for a new election because they don't say that it's there's no real mandate for pedro sanchez at the moment they say with those eighty four seats they want fresh elections and this is amounted to nothing but a constitutional qubit are so it's very difficult for sanchez what's he going to do it moaned he's treading water politically going through. a diplomatic diary meeting the president petro poroshenko of ukraine but he's got a lot to do is go to form the cabinet will he take ministers into his cabinet from but damn us who supported the no confidence motion on the far left will he take more help from the catalog. it's very very difficult simply to try and get

a budget through it's going to be huge problem because the the conservative. peoples party have a majority in the senate so there's a bit of an icky here there's a huge amount of work for sanchez to do and it only starts today david many thanks . to the reporting live from just outside madrid where the staff here with. tropical storms in the south china sea next on the. philippines president appears in court for a vaccination campaign that may have put lives at risk. a bleak future for the children of gaza worries over how many of them fronting mental health problems. will show you why you're better off leaving racecourses to the professional.

and it isn't and we we are are raising this issue now because of our sense of urgency our sense of urgency that these children need to be reached immediately. there's always this repeated talk of the international community needing to to help the just doesn't seem to be the political will the to stabilize anything is someone who works with kids in the palestinian territories first hand just how frustrating is it and how how much tougher does that does that make your job. well not having a horizon and not having a future to look forward to is one of the most impactful things for for a child throughout the time i've been here and certainly the political situation hasn't improved and the conflict has continued in the risk for another conflict in particular in gaza compounded with the blockade has. a wide ranging and

you know important impact on these kids it is important for all of us not just the international agencies and our partners that are responding for children but the international community the palestinian israeli side everyone is required must make additional steps redouble efforts to resolve the conflict and in particular in gaza and the blockade of the gravity here is the but if nothing is done to help these kids we're looking at a lost generation. we. can you can you paint a picture of. your own experience in the cases that you've dealt with. well the point here is that we do not want to talk about another lost generation now we've had two or three that have are the second generation since the oslo negotiations were were begun and now with the latest generation in gaza it's it's

the most stressful of the most complicated situation children have lived through in this country in its in its history so the prospects of the future the only process the only future to consider is one in which we are addressing these issues addressing the root cause and and ending the conflict there isn't another way forward that's a really good to talk to many fixed. in ramallah. the former president of the philippines for the acknowledge you know has appeared in court accused of ordering a vaccination campaign before the drug was fully tested and despite warnings of health risks some eight hundred thousand children received the vaccine against the mosquito borne virus it's now though being linked to a number of deaths general allen dog and reports from the. former president been ignored keno appeared before a court here at the department of justice together with several members all these former cabinet they submitted their counter affidavits they're accused all the
