look at what's happening in other places we can't allow that to happen to the united states not on my watch zero humanity and it makes zero sense the president's comment to provoke growing outrage among democrats and even members of his own republican party trumps admitted separating children from their parents is horrible but is trying to once again pressure congress into passing immigration reform laws it's been promising on monday he tweeted change the laws and later he blamed his democratic opponents for not reforming the laws even though republicans currently control congress and both parties have failed to deliver immigration reform for decades and until there are new laws in place or trumps infamous border wall is funded the attorney general says the zero tolerance policy will continue we cannot and will not encourage people to bring their children or the children to the country unlawfully by giving them immunity in the process tom is expected to travel

is in turkish authorities mind is that turkish military should get incitement bish clear the town and provide stability and security to give the town back to its real owners who are out and then turkey wants to move to the instance side of member to be out. and actually called bonna to do the same plan like a member but no one knows for sure whether the you not to this will give a green light for turkey to cross to that side but turkey believes that having a six hundred kilometer border their own that is some side a few freight israel where it is still a potential risk and just to remind present i don has wall to clear his borders his country's borders from why p.g. from syria up onto the iraqi border the u.s. has denied any involvement in airstrikes in eastern syria on sunday this video posted online is said to show the aftermath of the strikes on the area near the

at i was had had stalled two weeks ago that was until june fourteenth last thursday when the national strike brought the entire country basically to a standstill the very next day those talks resumed under the condition under several conditions one of which would be that president or fagan invite members and a delegation from the european union from the united nations and from the inner american commission on human rights to come to me could i was to observe the ongoing political crisis another one of those conditions was that the president put a pretty halt to the violence and the attacks against against demonstrators and against government opposition the national dialogue that we're talking about now is once again under threat of being suspended because none of those conditions have have have been met up until that up until now there has not been a formal declaration by president or that would suggest that an independent investigation into the ongoing political crisis would be welcomed any kind i want

and these attacks once again the the the attacks that began on on april eighteenth against members of the opposition against anti-government demonstrators and against the civilian population have only continued of all this political crisis what has been going on foot to two months now the violence continues. what's the latest on the ground i mean how many people are taking posse these demonstrations and how frequently. and the the demonstrations are taking place every single day at the local university students remain barricaded holding daily demonstrations in other cities there's there's daily anti-government demonstrations taking place with barricades that block off roads in certain cities like you said it's been two months now since the start of this political crisis there have been at least one hundred eighty people that have been killed according to some estimates it's as many as two hundred fifteen people that have been killed a thousand other people have been injured and we know that of dozens of others who have been disappeared and there is this expectation that the violence in the act by

pro-government paramilitary forces are only going to intensify and as we mentioned these other cities that are taking that are taking place in these in these demonstrations the city of messiah which is about forty five forty five minute drive from my now what has become a sort of symbol of this resistance against president or they got representatives from the resistance in messiah held a press conference today where they announced they're basically calling on the civil society to abandon the peace talks altogether to abandon that national dialogue and adding that the only peaceful outcome to this crisis will be the media it. will be for president or a guy and his wife vice president moved to e mediately step down so my side is calling on other cities in the could i what's to also form a symbol of a similar resistance against the government so from our point of view from our observation any sort of peaceful outcome to what's now a humanitarian crisis remains far in the distance but all many thanks indeed as irresponsible rough follow the reporting live from one. colombia's president elects

has called for unity after winning sunday's runoff he's promised to rewrite the peace deal that the government signed with fark rebels in twenty sixteen when the forty two year old takes office in august a conservative politician is colombia's youngest ever leader and he gallagher reports now from bogota. the whole way through his campaign do kate talked about how he didn't like the peace accords with the fog rebels that ended fifty years of conflict but what was really interesting last night was as he made his victory speech to his supporters you could hear him almost dialing back the rhetoric of actually rewriting the peace accords with iraq i earlier spoke to a former high commissioner for the peace deal here who said it's going to be very hard for even do k. to do anything with those peace accords because they are in the supreme court they are in the constitution it will be very hard for him to change them

a tall so despite the promises he has made with supporters about possibly modifying those words he used the peace accords it may end up that he can't do much at all and really as administration starts this is a very untested politician and he has nothing so the question does he want to spend all this time trying to deal with the peace accords or trying to make his mark as colombia's new president so at the moment if you ask experts here if you ask people in the street no one really knows the answer as to what do cable do with that fragile peace accord. police in germany have arrested the chief executive of the car maker audi as part of their investigation into emissions test cheating prosecutors believe that rupert stubler may try to suppress evidence and influence witnesses he's being investigated for his alleged role in bringing cars equipped with illegal software to the european market out he's accused of selling more than two hundred thousand diesel engine cars fitted with software that hides carbon

emissions. they need to get far the reason for the arrest is the danger of suppression about evidence during the search carried out at mr studley his home last monday the public prosecutor's office was informed that the accused may have an unfair influence over evidence possibly over other accused witnesses or other evidence the brother in law of the king of spain has begun a six year jail sentence with dungarvan was convicted of tax fraud and embezzlement he's accused of using his royal connections to overcharge for sports and tourism events more than one of a half million russians have signed an online petition against the government's pension reforms the proposal aims to raise 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 last thursday poori challenge reports now from moscow. well pension reform is something the ready made putin's various governments been putting off for

years and years and years in fact in two thousand and five putin said this pension ages would never be raised while he was president currently russia's retirement ages are below sixty for men and just fifty five for women those are a legacy of the soviet years so they would come up within nine hundred thirty two when life expectancy in the country was just thirty five for men and forty four when it's still pretty low by european standards but it has doubled since those times so now there's unsustainable pressure on the state pension funds and the government obviously feels or think that now the time is rights for some reform presidential elections in march or safely out of the way but they still chose the first day of the world cup to sneak this this plan out they know that it's a very unpopular thing to do in fact in a recent poll ninety two percent of russians said they were against it the plan is

for retirement ages to be raised to sixty five for men and sixty three for when for women that will be done over the next decade and a half the problem is wisely saying that vladimir putin is not actually involved in this pension reform as a government thing they will be watching very very closely for public reaction and if there is any sign that this is going to bring big crowds out onto the streets then perhaps they might roll some of this back we're going to weather update next here on the news then. you can live here where you can live and there maybe that's where your school was where our hospital was look at a program in the us that's hoping to change young people's opinions of refugees. and in support one of the talk about favorites kick off their world campaign with a bang we'll be right back.

a lot of heavy rain around here comes down towards honduras guatemala el salvador as well as in the forecast too and down through panama and into colombia there are showers developing in less around tilly's in fact once again you help us to see the audience a bit of a shame if you're there to watch the sunshine because they won't be there that often. the diagnosis he has been sick for around six months now the challenge ahead there one of these ninety six could be the new cure or the basis of a new kewl for colors off near illness or disability al-jazeera examines pion meaning treatments so this is the explosive yes it's basically a wearable robot that pira revisited now does iraq.

a second term because of frustration with what he called the ineffectiveness of the un security council. al hussein was often outspoken making bold statements after philippines president were dream go to turn ordered the killings of thousands of truck suspects the president of the philippines needs to submit themselves to some sort of psychiatric evaluation then there was the expansion of illegal israeli settlements he raised it repeatedly as a human rights abuse and called for an investigation into the recent killings of palestinians in gaza making an enemy of the united states they voted north to win inquiry and may now quit the human rights body over perceived and he's really bias that. was in his final address al hussein undeterred switched his anger to a u.s. policy separating migrant children from their parents at the mexico border the

thought that any state. would seek to deter parents by inflicting such abuse on children is unconscionable i call on the united states to immediately end the practice of forcible separation of these children all hussein has named and shamed governments and leaders from every continent including in his homeland jordan it has been hard on my family and it has affected my relationship with the government of the country of my birth the country i had the honor of representing diplomatically for so many years and it makes me sad this is so. well respected within these walls the jordanian royal is returning to a strained relationship at home and leaving behind a world strained in many places charlotte dallas. born one thousand doctors in australia have signed a petition calling for a refugee who is dying of lung cancer to be allowed into the country for specialist

with them and when they arrived at these camps they had very little mark rasch al may be retired but after thirty four years teaching he is right at home in front of a classroom he stays the lesson is empathy could be you could live here or you can live here where you can live and there maybe that's as he attempts to help refugees from a country in a conflict these six 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 and i don't think that 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 for actually missing really really happy because. it's so great that so many people want to help trash out has been collecting extra books and school supplies from new

york city schools for years were doing great guys 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 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 goals. 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 not more than i want to do with the overflow at one point the cars stretch down the street yeah i know we're going to get paid it's where

we're going to put the stuff before we get another hit the campaign was such a success they're trying to replicate it in city school districts nationwide christian salumi al jazeera new york for more now on president trump's harsh immigration policies as talk to bill schneider he's a public policy professor at george mason university and is also the author of standoff how america became ungovernable he joins us now live from los angeles good to have you with us once again bill so president trump is ignoring this intensifying chorus of condemnation of his zero tolerance and foresman policy that's resulted in what the separation of nearly two thousand kids from their parents over the last six weeks he's again on twitter that they tried to shift responsibility for the policy claiming that his administration is simply enforcing the country's quote horrible laws i say it very strongly he said it's the democrats' fault but he's wrong isn't. yes he is wrong democrats do not

control congress republicans do democrats never supported or sponsored a law mandating this policy in fact there is the law many of these policy it's an administration a trump administration policy and it's got democrats and republicans and democrats in congress very angry and the voters are in an uproar and republicans are terrified that the backlash against this harsh policy will cost them dearly in this fall's elections this is not on my watch for the sake you look at what's happening in europe he said you look at what's happening in other places we can't allow that to happen in the united states that's going to play well with with trump supporters isn't it i mean is this zero. this era tolerance in foresman policy going to help or hinder republicans in the midterms and november. well the president's calculation is it will help them because it's playing to the base as we say in the united states the definition of

a base is simple your base are the people who are with you when you're wrong in this most americans consider the trumpet ministration in the white house completely wrong but he got elected for a major reason which was to stop illegal immigration he also wants to curb some legal immigration but immigration feels like a threat to a lot of americans the people in his base mostly white working class voters and he is intent on delivering on that promise so that he can say to his supporters you see i told you i deliver on this and i did and let me remind you this issue the immigration issue has produced a backlash not just in the united states producing some but also in europe it says shaping politics there as well french m.e.p. said today in a few tweets trump has done more to promote european strategical ptolemy than decades of political diplomatic and military arguments. when he wades into the role about immigration in germany and political instability in in that country may see

just trying to shift attention away from this this this roué in the united states. he was counting on the fact that americans don't know me very much about what's actually happening in europe they know there's a backlash against immigrants and refugees and it's affecting european politics but he said the german crime rate is being driven up the german crime rate has actually been going down and doesn't seem to be negatively affected by the that is there doesn't seem to be more crime as a result of the acceptance of refugees but keep in mind there's a big backlash in germany and italy and other countries that was probably one of the reasons behind the brics in twenty sixteen there's a big backlash against the refugee policy of european countries and president trump is probably counting on the fact that americans know that and he's saying i'm going to prevent that from happening here but it's always great to talk to you many thanks indeed professor bill schneider there. in los angeles at least five people

have been injured in a shooting in sweden it happened in sweden's third largest city mo mo no arrests have been made police say that there is no link to terrorism civilians in the u.s. and more than forty percent of the world's guns according to the small. the swiss based research group found that one out of out of three hang on a minute found that out of one billion firearms around the world eighty five percent to held by civilians militaries of lord force with agencies hold the rest are income from the small arms as explained why there are so many guns in the u.s. . every country is very different and even in the united states there's a lot of variation among the fifty states in puerto rico guam so you find a lot of variation habits part of what makes america so difficult is you have an awful lot of relatively normal gun owners people who own two or three guns but the
