4:08 pm
fighters across its border to cause who joins us live from istanbul talk us through what's happening on the ground there soon. yes and as you sat turkish military began first joint patrolling duty with the u.s. troops in member. and this is actually approved by this is confirmed by the top turkish officials including the president the prime minister turkey's chief of staff with a written statement also this is what we hear from the this actually shows that it is a reflection. of combination it you know turkey and united states agreed on a on a road map over members and it was announced by the top military officials from both countries last weekend in early june turkey's foreign minister and the u.s. secretary of state had a meeting over members issues so it shows that these diplomatic talks are on track and it is the reflection in the field so right now this is
4:09 pm
a small work actually because according to the road map they need six months to clear men bitch from the white p.g. and as church say and in the first two months why puji is going to be out of member . in that period still why fiji is going to have syrian democratic forces are going to be providing security for member it if there is going to be a joint more the like. the one establishments in eleven turkey and us are planning to establishments ration policies and they're going to divide those observations into american and turkish and today the turkish troops that are located by the soju river and member states they did this joint patrolling with the u.s. troops and you know there is a u.s. base. just right across this. where turkish troops are deployed so
4:10 pm
if things are on track and if they greenmantle signed by the foreign ministers it will show that turkey and us are going to be on. same page on the same page especially about northern syria and this is like a turkish this will be like a turkish u.s. a joint security zone or joint buffer zone we're going to see ok tell us more about the timing why it's happening now. won't and you know turkish officials have been insisting that a kurdish entity actually a y p g entity in northern syria is a security threat for turkey because turkey believes y p g is linked to the outboard kurdistan workers' party and putting that aside certainly said this is our red line is. b.g. must be must must live members and they should be on the eastern side of the euphrates river this is a long process but of course this is
4:11 pm
a lot especially for the turkish president who has been promising to fight against terrorism to clear terrorism out of his boundary out of his borders as he's running up for a presidential bid this sunday on june twenty fourth so. although it is a long work by the military and by the diplomats of both sides this is an advantage for the turkish government to gain more votes during the upcoming election jane all right jim thank you. an iraqi shia militia group says twenty two of its fighters have been killed by a u.s. air strike in syria it happened in the border town of kemal where some of its forces are based the group known as iraq's popular mobilisation forces is made up of mostly rainy and backed chair militias fighting alongside the syrian government . dozens of libyan activists and residents of the eastern city of have been
4:12 pm

4:13 pm
after two major tanks have been set on fire because of the military confrontations in the area and now the red crescent members in the area say that they have received twenty six but is of fighters. that were killed and in the attacks since thursday and most of them belong to a warlord khalifa haftar now yesterday two civilians namely two girls will killed in an air strike in the city in an area strikes law should buy any for have to his forces and now the area is very strategic because whoever controls. the oil soon can control libya's income because it's very strategic and it includes for the major the oil terminal a city that arcelor north and. oil port so these are the major oil the
4:14 pm
major oil ports in the country and whoever controls them can control libya's income which is the oil production is the backbone of libya's income. there's your head on the news on clue to what lies ahead for the hundreds of migrants who entered spain after being stranded at sea for over a week. and the biggest shock of the world cup so far as defending champions germany lose to make soko father will have the action coming up in sport. the issue of migration is proving a major headache for the e.u. six hundred thirty refugees are spending their first day in spain after arriving on ships which were turned away from italy and malta city council leaders in barcelona said the new socialist government in madrid must back up its humanitarian gesture
4:15 pm
with money and resources to help the arrivals sunderland is associate director for europe and central division of human rights what she joins us live from milan and it's now i should imagine very difficult doing your job when there is no unified policy here. well of course that's true saying it's the last government coordinated humane and rates based approach to the arrival of migrants and refugees in your that has caused real suffering for those arriving and the political divisiveness that we see today how do you operate then what what is it that you have to go through to get the job done. well of course we are busy. primarily document thing the abuses of the rights of migrants and asylum seekers who arrive on european shores or at land borders where they continue to face as we
4:16 pm
have dramatically seen when the case of the aquarius literal push backs and refusal to entry but also engine maintained disha and lack of access to fair asylum procedures and in general a very hostile environment in numerous countries across the e.u. and we of course follow very carefully the developments of e.u. level asylum part policy which in our view is going unfortunately in the in the exact wrong direction this has got us here by that it seems that the doors are closing on on these people doesn't it and the situation just seems to be getting a lot worse are you expecting anything from the summit of the couple weeks. well it's never too late to do the right thing course we are are calling on e.u. leaders to show genuine leadership and get over the squabbling and the divisive debate and really take a hard look at reset
4:17 pm
a fundamental reset on e.u. migration and asylum policies to adopt measures that are based on rights based on a principled approach but they are also effective and allow the e.u. to control its borders in issue mainway and what that really means is more safe than orderly channels for both migrants and asylum seekers to reach the e.u. without having to risk their lives and in a way that allows countries to know who is coming in and to process them in a fair way it means of course returning to their countries of origin people who don't have a right to stay in european countries because they don't have protection needs and they don't have other valid claims to remain as long as those returns are done in a safe and humane way and it means ensuring that there are fair procedures across
4:18 pm
the e.u. zone and a genuine effort to coordinate and cooperate with each other and to share equitably responsibility for people who are arriving and for understanding their individual circumstances before decisions are taken about their fate due to sunderland thank you good to to talk. thank as we have been explaining different countries have different policies despite seeming to present a unified front in germany i'm going to merkel's coalition is hanging by a thread because of the issue of immigration but within the last hour she has secured a temporary reprieve. we are of the opinion the c.d.u. and c.s.u. has the joint goal to better direct migration into our country and we do so number of people are driving in the country so that we do not have a situation like we had in two thousand and fifteen let's bring in dominic cain in berlin i believe donald trump has been tweeting about this. yes he has changed so
4:19 pm
much on the hard on the heels of the announcement of this compromise between the two conservative partners as it were in this grand coalition here in germany we have the president of the united states making an intervention national reach out for you he says the people of germany are turning against their leadership as migration is rocking the already tenuous berlijn coalition crime in germany is way up he says big mistakes made all over europe in allowing millions of people in who have so strongly and violently change their culture course the question will be quite what the leadership he refers to there will make of his intervention given as i say that they have in the course of the last hour also announced a form of compromise to the problem that being the deviling the coalition here of the past week you'll see namely what to do with people who come to germany claiming refugee status who'd already claimed that status elsewhere in the e.u. but to discuss i thought mr trump has been saying and tweeting and indeed this compromise i refer to i'm joined by. a senior advisor with rasmussen global first
4:20 pm
of all mr blanco what do you when you see the sort of tweet that the president says has just come up with what do you think the take will be here amongst the political structure of that sort of interference in germany's political developments as it were i hope they can only take it with humor and saying ok what we missed here in this daily soap is the guest appearance of a prominent comedian and this is all i can how i can characterize it it's totally beyond fags the crime rate in germany is the lowest in thirty years and europe is not flooded by illegal violent people hating man eating refugees this is total nonsense and i think it's actually from a political point of from the point of political culture and it's a no go what the president did regarding the actual substance of what's happened today here in germany both by lenin and munich we have this sense of compromise between the interior minister was there. well for his party the c.s.u.
4:21 pm
and i'm going to merkel c.d.u. the question is this compromise they've agreed on which is effectively to say people who present themselves as refugees here but who have travel ban placed on them would be sent back is that going to be enough to diffuse this route or is it more like a sticking plaster no i think this is just a compromise to buy time of course everybody merkel's original suggestion was to wait until the next year some of which is happening in two weeks and of course zero four compromised on this he said ok we'll do so but we will so i will introduce a step by step approach so we'll start with those who by german law are illegally trying to re enter germany that's fine he's the minister of interior this is his job the risk the splitting and seeks for his political solution this is now another very hard to maybe the hardest challenge for uncle america to find any kind of compromise we will have italian prime minister concert coming to berlin tonight. on
4:22 pm
the french president is coming to more doable and so we won't see a compromise in a solution of twenty eight heads of state this is totally impossible in my eyes what we will see is kind of are fragmented and bits and parts from here and there coalition of the willing and the unwilling to find some kind of folk a this is how we can survive not to survive but actually how we can deal with the issue because what angle america started in september two thousand and eight was not the beginning of a crisis but of course this was very much intensifying a debate we had europe is electing a common migration policy for decades now the pressure from outside will not decrease so therefore it is time to to take action and what the whole four did in his part is to fuel this up and to say ok we need it now and we need it because we have elections in october well of course you said there are twenty fifteen when angela merkel chain. the politics here the vicious and just opening the borders the
4:23 pm
question here is what is behind this round now because these two parties the c.s.u. the cd you they have been in lockstep almost married as it were one block politically electorally for decades effectively defining the experience on the conservative right of the federal republic of germany after world war two why now suddenly this issue blowing up into a storm where people say it could lead to the fall of the coalition i think as i said sir i think on the one hand we see this broader open wound actually which we're seeking for for a kind of solution in the plaster so it is an open agenda or for months now and i think this is you just had a look at the political calendar realizing that the upcoming summit in june might be the last moment where they can have an impact on the refugee policy which by chance for chairmen of this year's u.n. minister of interior as you hope for is responsible and accountable for so therefore that i think they counted the two things together and said ok if we want
4:24 pm
to do something we have to do it now but if there's anyone in the e.u. who can do it it's a good so we have to take that pressure to put pressure on her so that she's putting pressure on her. leaders and then we might see some kind of movement so but i don't believe that anybody in this you imagine that there will be a full fledged solution within two weeks and of course it will be a very hard challenge for him going to america to get to any kind of compromise or left blinker from rasmussen global thank you very much so there you have it then you have the sense of the issues that matter here and why this storm has blown up as it has right now as all of says mr conti the italian prime minister will be here in the next few hours and we will wait to see what sort of statements the two leaders will come out with after that meeting is finished but for now back to you jane ok we look forward to that thank you dominick well immigration is also a big issue in the united states where passionate stories about children being separated from their parents at the mexican border are making international
4:25 pm
headlines let's go to our white house correspondent kelly halkett in washington d.c. tell us more about this policy and how it's playing out company. well there is growing outrage over the policy what many don't understand though is that the policy has been in place for more than a decade what's different and why donald trump is ultimately bearing the responsibility for all of this is that he has decided to use this is essentially the nuclear option whereas previous president barack obama and george w. bush use it only as a measure of last resort why is the president doing this well there are a couple of things number one his political opponents are certainly using this as what they see is a midterm election issue we've just passed the father's day weekend here in the united states where many members of congress were campaigning so that was one reason the other reason is that members of his own administration have decided to take a hard line stance in advance of this election so the president well he was on friday
4:26 pm
speaking to reporters saying he didn't like the policy what it appears he's trying to do is force the hand of the u.s. congress that has been dragging its heels on this issue for almost twenty years as the issue continues to grow so this is a sort of example of in action that has led to drastic action on the part of the u.s. president certainly this is fueling his critics who have said this is an inhumane policy for his part of the u.s. president also saying that he believes it's a horrible law but it's not the white house that makes the laws certainly he can influence he can suggest he can he can persuade but it is the congress that essentially has abdicated its responsibility in recent decades on this issue in the midst of all of this though we also have to battling first ladies the current first lady and the former first lady. trump for her part believes that there should be a governing of heart but it is the former first lady laura bush who is has penned
4:27 pm
a scathing editorial about this practice that is coming to light that many feel is really highlighting the sort of strong feelings that americans are feeling over seeing these images of children being separated from their parents really is an emotional issue and it can be fun too. the united states has drastically reduced the number of refugees allowed into the country under the trumpet ministration only about a dozen of come from syria so far this year despite a conflict that has displaced millions but some americans are finding other ways to help those trying to flee the war torn country kristen salumi has more from new york so a lot of these people carry very little with them and when they arrived at these camps they had very little margret shell may be retired but after thirty four years teaching he is right at home in front of a classroom these days the lesson is empathy you could live here or you can live here where you can live and maybe that's as he attempts to help refugees from
4:28 pm
a country in a conflict these sixth graders know little about syria but after some photos of the bombed out city of aleppo and a video about life in a refugee camp in jordan they're ready to help in whatever way they can i don't think anyone should go through it they went through especially a kid it makes me really grateful for everything that i have actually earned this boy and some friends raised one hundred sixty eight dollars in donations actually sing really really happy because. it's so great that someone here wanted to help trash out has been collecting extra books and school supplies from new york city schools for years we're doing great. and shipping them to underprivileged ones in africa but this year he decided the syrian refugee crisis was too big to ignore and teamed up with the united muslim relief organization for what could be his largest single relief drive yet. so you want kids to be empowered to be global citizens you
4:29 pm
want them to understand the world's problems and so act and also gets americans to understand what the refugee crisis is all about and identify with which i think is critically important also. students parents and teachers answered the call lining up one saturday morning to deliver what they collected. nearly fifty schools took part in the drive each one responsible for collecting a different i had a school supplies clothing or blanket the goal was to fill a trailer they've done that more i want to do with the overflow at one point the cars stretch down the street yeah i know we're going to get painted just where we're going to put the stuff before we get another good thing the campaign was such a success they're trying to replicate it in city school districts nationwide christian salumi al jazeera new york let's get the weather now and richard good news of heavy rain in the u.s. and mexico yeah take us first and you see behind me this sort of raggedy line of
4:30 pm
close sight she really quite potent we've had some very heavy rain being reported all the way along its length the shots come from hoatson in upper mids you can there's been reports of up to sixty sinkholes developing this rain has come down and cause all sorts of flooding issues as you can see so it is very much an active frontal system and there it is strong across well the whole of the constant extending up through into the northeast and there bursts of heavy rain all the way along it is also another player down to the south and come back to that one in a minute now as we look at the forecast you can see we're still going to see further spells of heavy rain affecting illinois through wisconsin and towards the northeast as well as a very warm across parts of the eastern seaboard thirty four degrees in washington dropping a little bit as we head on through into tuesday and then as we head across into the gulf of mexico region well you can see that area of clouds all around the gulf itself area stood a chance of developing into
4:31 pm
a tropical cycle we don't think it's going to do it but nevertheless the whole areas produce some very heavy rain we've also had some big rainfall totals reported on the pacific side out the pool again still seeing that rain coming down i'm not going to see a further rain here over the next twenty four hours before it eventually be constituents somewhat dry. thanks richard where you are watching al-jazeera and i'm just going to mind a very quickly of our top stories the outgoing u.n. human rights chief is warning that the saudi and amorality offensive on her data could have disastrous effects on millions of yemenis the u.a.e. is demanding that the rebels should withdraw unconditionally from the port city and a life line. turkish forces have entered the outskirts of the syrian city of man be part of an agreement with the us earlier this month the syrian kurdish peoples protection units known as the y p g said their military advisers would leave town turkey had been infuriated by washington support for kurdish fighters across its border. the german chancellor angela merkel has agreed to significantly reduce the
4:32 pm
number of immigrants entering germany comes after days of tense negotiations between the ruling c.s.u. and c.d.u. parties in a bid to prevent the coalition government from collapsing her conservative allies the christian social union demanded that refugees registered other european nations should be blocked from entering germany colombia's president elect yvonne duke a is vying to alter the landmark peace deal with the fark a conservative newcomer finished with fifty four percent of sunday's runoff vote the former rebels say duquesne needs to show good sense. with humility and honor i tell the colombian people that i will give all my energies to unite our country no more divisions let's think about a country for all and everyone for me it's very important to tell you the whole of colombia but today there are no defeated citizens because i want to be the
4:33 pm
president that gives the same love to those who voted for me and those who didn't. peter who came as president emeritus and senior fellow of the american dialogue a latin america think tank he joins us live from washington d.c. good to have you with us peter hey kim is duke a game to be good for fox good for the people peace process or dismantle it. well. i think that the idea of this mantling is a little bit exaggerated. he's never talked about this man doing it. what i think we're going to see is some changes in implementation largely there will be it will be a little bit harder line on some of the far cool of committed crimes. but by and large i don't think we're going to see any major changes but you think people will appreciate that i mean jumping in here i mean do you think there prescience
4:34 pm
a harder line when it comes to some of the fog rebels who maybe haven't been playing by the book but. there's no question that the fark are terribly unpopular in colombia that a candidate that was ready to run for president in his polling numbers were below one percent oh the fark has no legitimacy in colombia at all and i think most people probably do want a little bit of a harder line but i don't think there's going to be any dismantling. i mean that the colombian government is committed to this they will they'll stick with that by and large the core of the agreement ok but the elections that we saw in sydney showed a divided country didn't it what needs to be done to reconcile. well when you say divided country i think of various countries in the hemisphere that are really truly divided. with both sides marching against one another
4:35 pm
colombia has a large degree of agreement among the parties the economy the pens exactly you know on the details when a sickly colombia has been a country that's been governed pragmatically it's been governed in a. consensual way yes the left has become stronger now after the peace agreement was signed yes there's a strong right but by and large this is not a contentious situation right now i think that you're going to see a lot of continuity in colombia rather than dramatic change in either direction ok so we're going to see dramatic change but what sort of things to you think the country needs to do now what does the government need to do to push on to strengthen the economy. though well there's
4:36 pm
a lot of strength in the economy. that's a problem that faces almost every country in latin america these days. i think one is implementing the peace accords the peace accords are simply not sort of punishing or not punishing the far they have to do with resettling refugees they have building infrastructure creating employment and other words reducing violence in areas that were once held by the far reducing drug trafficking you know all this is still to be done the deed if there was a problem in colombia it is in the implementation of this peace agreement which means the vellum in large areas of the country peter kim thanks for talking to us more than one and a half million russians have signed an online petition against the government's
4:37 pm
pension reforms the controversial proposal aims to increase the pension age from fifty five to sixty three for women and from sixty to sixty five for men the bill was submitted to parliament on thursday the day russia kicks off the world cup for more on this let's cross live to a chance in moscow is that it's not going down to what is it really. no pension reform is something that putin has various governments put off doing for years and years and years in fact in two thousand and five by the way putin said that actually the pension age would never be raised while he was president as you say currently the pension age is sixty for men and just fifty five for women that's pretty low if you compare russia to other countries particularly in europe that's actually a legacy from the u.s.s.r. and it was actually the those ages were come up were produced in nineteen thirty
4:38 pm
two when life expectancy was just thirty five years old for men and forty for women and it's double since then so now there is this unsustainable pressure on the state pension system and the government obviously feels i think that with march's presidential elections safely out of the way now is the time to tackle this but yes they roles or they snuck this decision out on the first day of the world cup when everyone was a bit distracted the the increase is going to be for two sixty five years for men and for sixty three years for women that will be done gradually over the next decade and a half but it's immensely unpopular that this decision ninety two percent of russians said they were against it in a recent poll the kremlin is wisely saying that running the person is not even involved in this pension reform plan and i think the kremlin will be watching public russian very very closely if there are any signs that this is going to bring
