after it was established to prosecute the world's worst atrocities one of the legacy and future of the international criminal court. u.s. president donald trump has arrived home to some. criticism from both sides of the math and politics after siding with the russian president vladimir putin on election meddling well speaking after their summit in finland trump even challenge the findings of his own intelligence community from helsinki diplomatic editor james spader's. face to face ahead of us meeting a meeting that lasted over two and a half hours but if you were hoping they would solve any of the world's problems you'll be sorely disappointed instead when they spoke to reporters their comments were dominated by their views on the most toxic political issue in the u.s.

an issue that just got more controversial as they seemed mainly to agree on it during today's meeting i addressed directly with president putin the issue of russian interference in our elections i felt this was a message best delivered in person spend a great deal of time talking about. and president putin may very well want to address it and very strongly because he feels very strongly about it and here's an interesting idea putin then explained that idea he'd get russian authorities to interview the twelve hackers even though the allegation is they were working on behalf of those same or thoughts is all he said they could set up a joint us russian investigation team with one condition. this kind of effort should be a mutual one then we would expect that the americans would reciprocate and they've they would question the fish bowls including the officers of law enforcement and

intelligence services of the united states whom we believe who have something to do with illegal actions on the territory of russia trump called that an incredible offer he was then asked a straight question every u.s. intelligence agency has concluded that russia did. what hu my first question for you sir is who do you believe remarkably he said by switching to a completely different subject which is not part of the investigation hillary clinton's e-mails what happened to hillary clinton's e-mails thirty three thousand e-mails gone just gone i think in russia they wouldn't be gone so easily twenty two months after the election he still seems determined to reaffirm the legitimacy of his win i beat hillary clinton easily the electoral college is much more advantageous for democrats as you know than it is to republicans we won the

electoral college by a lot one last question was simple yes important. president putin did you want president trump to win the election. yes i did because he talked about bringing the right us relationship back to normal i've lost count of the number of times over the last eighteen months that i've described comments by president trump as extraordinary but this what was supposed to be a summit between the two most powerful leaders in the world was taking things to a new level the president may have been trying to robustly make his case about the twenty sixteen election but there seems little doubt that he's only made matters worse for himself james al-jazeera helsinki with a former cia director john brennan was particularly scathing of the u.s. president's comments tweeting donald trump's press conference performance and health rises to the threshold of high crimes and misdemeanors it was nothing

short of treasonous not only were transcon comments imbecilic he was wholly in the pocket of total republican patriots where are you. well our white house correspondent company health has more reaction from washington d.c. . for a president who loves to talk about his ratings and reviews there was nearly universal criticism members of the u.s. congress over his performance in helsinki and his apparent acceptance of russian president vladimir putin's denial that russia interfered in the twenty sixteen u.s. election president putin he just said it's not russian but more than a dozen u.s. law enforcement and intelligence agencies have concluded just the opposite leading some members of the president's own political party to rebuke his actions republican senator john mccain called the putin trust press conference disgraceful in a statement he said the damage inflicted by president trumps night even egotism false

equivalence and sympathy for autocrats is difficult to calculate. many republicans are concerned the truck blamed both countries for the deteriorating u.s. russia relationship jacked into giving what they call moral equivalence to a traditional u.s. adversary what many label a propaganda win for putin this was the primary objective of a lot of the putin was to sow permanent instability in american society and political culture so that we're so busy fighting each other we don't have time to take him on as a threat opposition democrats not surprisingly were equally outraged at what the president did. side with our number one enemy who is attacking the united states daily in a variety of ways and be literally kneecapping our allies is just appalling and demands some kind of explanation the senate intelligence committee has also

concluded russia meddled in the us elections fears it will happen again in twenty eighteen there are times in the senate when people have to stand up and see which side are those one of those times this is one of those times there may now be in the u.s. congress a renewed push for bipartisan legislation known as the deter act that would snap and severe sanctions against russia's oil and banking sectors should it be found to interfere in any future u.s. election can really help al-jazeera washington the how russians reacting to their president's performance or a challenge this one has live moscow it's a little other than criticism of trump in the u.s. but how do russians feel. putin did in the summit but also what came out of it. well certainly foreign minister sergey lavrov was pleased with how things are going

in the meeting he was pretty brown sea afterward saying that everything had gone better than super but today in the russian media i think things are reasonably muted your certainly not getting much in the way of crowing or the impression. putin plays donald trump and rolled him over the the view here seems to be that there was little in the way of actual concrete deliverables that came out of the meeting this little detail but that this was a good starts. will have to wait for the follow up diplomacy before a full conclusion could be made as to the real results of this. but you know the the view here is that this was a meeting that was. performed in a spirit of partnership between these two leaders and i think there's an awareness in russia certainly in the russian media that donald trump faces significant

opposition and that whatever these two men decided and agreed on in helsinki on monday much of that might be rolled back by what's viewed in moscow certainly as a hostile political establishment in the united states that there is what is viewed here is a kind of american state that is hostile to stick and wants to sabotage the projects that donald trump is currently engaged on which is to try to improve relations with russia or as donald trump and solve cause that the what chantel we thank you very much for that for now that is roy chalons live in moscow. we're going to look at pictures now just coming into us from the fence that separates syria from the israeli occupied golan heights we're looking at several hundreds of syrians and turn in the displaced people who are marching along this border this is in the air

can a throw where the syrian government is fighting to push out the last remaining pockets of rebels and eisel fighters ten civilians have been killed in a syrian regime air strike on internally displaced people gathering in a school and could they throw that happened earlier on tuesday the un's humanitarian office says one hundred fifty thousand people have been displaced by fighting in the solve many attract near the border with the golan heights. now israel is tightening that siege on almost two million people living in gaza by further restricting the flow of goods into the territory it's planning to ban all fuel. imports through the. crossing while food and medicine will need to go through them. as they sold. for the flow of fuel necessary for people who only get up to six hours of electricity a day and israel has also been just the size of an area palestinian fisherman let's

get more on this knowledge on by correspondent charles stratford who's live at a portion israel. is the area that. it's right further restrictions put on by israel down to the stream. from which they can fish now i mean let's not forget that the fishing community here in gaza has been credible pressure for twelve years since the blockade started we just actually spoken to some of the responsible one of the fishing officials if you like here in the administration who says that in the last twelve years at least thirteen fishermen have been killed two of whom were killed this year. the two hundred injured as well i mean i know from staying here close to the port and hotels you're woken up in the mornings by the sound of israeli gun boats. warning

shots at virtually every day. and fishing is vital for this community. we understand according to the official that we spoke to that with these new restrictions it's expected that they may only be able to basically fish for eight hundred tons of fish according to this official at least four thousand tons is needed to sustain. the gaza strip around fifty thousand families involved in this industry in some way so it just shows you how we feel. and with these new restrictions down to a stream on area with which they can fish you can only imagine the fishermen here very concerned and the general population here of very concerned about what they fear could well be another war especially. given that the reducing the

number of. canned fish as just a number of measures being taken by israel now. yes you've mentioned the restrictions now only too few. medicine sorry and food on a case by case basis now crossing a criminal on the fuel having stopped crossing the egyptians closed off a crossing yesterday as well for what they describe as technical reasons so the gazans here are feeling under pressure and let's put it in context twelve years of this blockade. fifty percent so the u.n. say all of the approximately two million people living here are living in poverty and they look back to almost exactly four years ago when we saw the last gaza war you know one thousand five hundred civilians killed in that war around five hundred

of those children whole neighborhoods were destroyed during that war many of them have now been rebuilt so there is a great sense of fear here a great sense of pressure on the gazans interestingly today we've seen queues of people waiting at gas stations obviously concerned about the fuel crisis the imminent fuel crisis because of this closure of fuel at the. crossing so there is mounting sense of fear and anxiety in the gaza strip. as i say you know more than a decade of what the u.n. now is describing has described. as as this place being basically at breaking point . you very much for that finale that is child stratford joining us live from gaza court thank you. well the weather is next then. there are those latest victims of their aid as the government faces more pressure to end its crackdown and a new warning that u.s.

trade tensions could put the global economy is shaky ground. and we're seeing some very heavy downpours in manila over the past two or three days and that's caused problems now we've seen scenes like this which has given rise to scenes like this so lots of flooding around at the moment that water really is quite deep and it's all thanks to the rain that we've had over a number of days and as you can see from the satellite picture that cloud is still with us now we do have a tropical storm it's not too far away from us but that's actually here to the north so it's not that really that's causing our in hans rains over the philippines the philippines has just had heavy rain over the past few days and is plenty more still to come that you can tell from the dog blue colors here on our truffle wednesday that again some of that rain will be very very heavy indeed there plenty

of what weather across the philippines and all the way across towards the west it's over parts of vietnam and across into thailand as well to the south that's where it's draw and following and that's the way it's going to stay as we head into the day job both look calm and settled down towards australia and hey we've had some rather lively weather as well these pictures are from melbourne shows the storm coming looks pretty impressive but it gave us a very very strong winds that gave us a few problems is all out of this system hey you can see it working its way across us it's clearing there for wednesday. building a new life. beach living off the sea and. a dream shared by so many but so few make it a reality. of family business led by

thousand people have been displaced by fighting in the south and many trapped near the border with the golan this is a situation we are monitoring closely and we'll bring you any more information on that as it becomes available to us. israel has turned into a bad few in imports through the only commercial cross and to the gaza strip food and medicine will need permission to go through the bottom of this and then crossing israel says the decision as a response to hostility from hamas the u.s. president has arrived home to severe criticism office siding with the russian president vladimir putin on accusations of election meddling speaking after this summit in finland. legend's agencies what found evidence of interference. by u.k. based investigative agency has obtained documents revealing an expensive lobbying effort by the u.a.e. inversion and the us they spend watch for portion close emails from an m.r.i.

at a lobbying group to influence the baby stays coverage of the arab spring some journalists and managers were targeted for sacking the report says it has proof of secret meetings between i would obvious crown prince mohammed bin zayed and former british prime minister david cameron desired apparently threatened to pull billions and deals if the u.k. failed to designate the muslim brotherhood a terrorist organization and the rotty foreign minister on lot of was accused of pushing journalists to create a pro u.a.e. anti muslim brotherhood anti iran and anti media narrative and it's in there just the u.a.e. is a lobbying company offered twenty six thousand dollars a month to college london to focus research linking cutter with terrorism. sami handy as a middle east analyst and editor of international interest and he says although it is normal for countries to be involved in lobbying the scale of this operation is extraordinary. you have to why do you. this particular routine while longer and

watching meticulous let's remember that many of the muslim brotherhood leaders during their times in exile they will be countries they fled their country. many many of whom brotherhood. exist read to be believed if the arabs through. the ruling family. so suffering the same as mubarak and the like and the. huge amounts of money. i think with regards to these. growing billions of dollars i don't think i sincerely do you eat very similar to what trucks is very similar to what we saw was new conflict in the ninety's ninety's like it's a big it was trying to lift the arms embargo he was told that if we need it we want

to be ready soon so i think we can accept it so long known in terms of the lobby group everybody is really local which with their own particular narrative what is interesting is the huge amounts of money that the u.a.e. spent in this particular era against the muslim brotherhood and desperately trying to change the narrative i think. the size of the operation shows just how much you eat was just wrecked and how rabid its approach was in the muslim brotherhood. the un chief i'm tony harris has paramilitary fighters lengths and look at our us government to use an unacceptable lethal force against protesters which must stop immediately at least two hundred seventy people have been cosen stem instructions against president die of take on baghdad and a fall money out of sanchez reports hala capital managua. yes family members are burying twenty year old jenna vasquez on friday he was one of dozens of

population. they say paramilitary and government supporters have attacked members of the national dialogue group sabotaging the resolution to the crisis group that will be going to go with this policy the government is not contributing to a peaceful resolution it's creating obstacles yours them to open child for real dialogue. nearly three months of protests around the country have left more than three hundred people dead and many say the crisis is far from over many analysts say the government doesn't really want to negotiate they say it will continue to respond to protests with the use of force as they did here at the church where the students took cover. i can assure you the government is obstructing dialogue and the way to destroy it is by pushing aside the bishop says mediation is to name some clowns unconditional to them. political opponents say president

critics of the international criminal court as it turns twenty this week but it has truly global reach and acts as a deterrent to perpetrators of some of the world's worst atrocities so say its defenders the truth is somewhere in between the court was set up basically with so many goals at the same time not only rendering justice and meeting up punishments but also bringing truth bringing reconciliation bringing so many victims and i think it set out also to do many things at the same time well apparently you cannot do that they only have twenty in africa has been a particular focus of the courts work with critics complaining of biased so even though cases have been referred to the i.c.c. by individual governments but africa has also highlighted some of the court's weaknesses no international police force means it relies on the cooperation of its

one hundred twenty three member states over darfur for instance despite years of investigation and multiple indictments including of sudanese president omar al bashir not one arrest has yet been made if the past of this relative legal infant then is one of teething trouble in finding its feet then what of its future in a world in which conflict is increasingly multi-lateral in which the superpowers aren't even members and in which vetoes at the u.n. security council are a barrier to justice in some of the world's most blighted places. the i.c.c. was founded as a permanent court from which no leader rebel group or army could hide now if permanence is not in. but there are significant gaps in global commitment to the court russia is blocking efforts to send syria to the international criminal court even though the assad government really with putin's backing has deliberately targeted civilians as a way of waging this war china seems to be standing in the way ascending. even

though it ethnically cleansed seven hundred thousand muslims in the course of the month you know the united states is continuing to try to protect israel to protect saudi arabia so there is a very unprincipled approach to international justice all of that puts alleged war crimes in syria and gaza beyond its reach but the i.c.c. is tackling of the challenges you investigations in venezuela the philippines and afghanistan may build support and assuage suspicion across the african continent but the rise of nationalism and disdain for global institutions elsewhere are all men assigns for the strengthening of international justice jonah at the hague. we're talking about some breaking news that we brought you earlier from syria hundreds of internally displaced syrians are gathering near the border fence with the israeli occupied golan heights israeli soldiers have been heard telling them to

go back and some have reportedly backed away let's get more on this one that stephanie deca is following the story from west jerusalem stephanie what are you seeing or hearing about what's happening at the border.
