1:02 pm
around ten percent of those consumed in china are domestically grown the instruction to local farmers to grow more soybeans was a political priority but the reality is this china is a long way from ever being self-sufficient in soybeans which means it's going to be reliant on imports for years to come hi everybody i am a soybean in this cartoon video my china appears to be targeting u.s. farmers it's been airing on the international service of state t.v. and has a clear message in china can buy soybeans from other countries if that happens soybean farmers in the u.s. could take an even greater hit. and the soybean plays an essential role in the chinese diet used in cooking oil source tofu as well as animal feed the government's now taking action to ensure there's no shortage of wild out the door the government is offering more subsidies to soybean farmers so i believe the

1:04 pm
china is willing to give that the point there is that it isn't whether china should open its markets or whether americans have a right to demand that china does it every government does what it's best for its own people regardless of the abstract moral issue and run now up until now china fuz that it can do a lot of things that in trade and in other areas because it's got this huge trump card one point four billion people a market of one point four billion people and everybody wants a slice of that market. the remains of what north korea says are more than fifty u.s. soldiers who died during the korean war six decades ago have arrived back on american soil repatriation ceremony was held in the u.s. state of hawaii north korean leader kim jong un promised to return the remains

1:06 pm
the last outbreak and that's going to pose a challenge itself in the response so there's no lack of information from a scientific standpoint we know exactly what happens the disease is natural in bats and people get infected directly from bats or from eating infected bushmeat and then if there can be a large amount of person to person spread during a funeral or potentially during a how key are in a health care setting so we know the science of ebola but what's missing is the education of communities to help them understand that sometimes in the midst of all these people who have fever and getting sick and dying there's potentially cases of a ball of that are very contagious and can infect others within the community so that's where the education needs to happen and to make sure that such individuals are quickly moved to health care centers to ensure that there aren't these funerals where you keep touching people and infecting others and within how care settings to

1:09 pm
the nation's culture by my opinion also dorothy's are involved because they received it but while some have made fortunes many others have suffered at the hands of this multi-billion dollar industry malady my mother would strangle would be curable and brutally coupled with coal because if you describe who are the winners and losers of this illicit trade snow will be andy's on al-jazeera. again you're watching al-jazeera has a reminder of our top stories this hour soldiers in zimbabwe have opened fire on hundreds of opposition demonstrations and the capital harare protests as angry

1:11 pm
days before the official results are out the opposition cry foul eighteen of the twenty three presidential candidates for run against president abraham. say his supporters have manipulated the media misused the state funds bought votes and allowed widespread violence and deceptions in polling stations. we have noticed live in multiple anomalies including abusive utilization of state means by the president massive appropriation of what accounts for the wrong people corruption and pledges of words stopping ballot boxes attribution a fake assault certain candidate and absence of water guards and numerous polling stations. the candidates jointly read the declaration rejecting sunday's vote in all polling stations where disruptions or irregularities took place. we demand that result of every polling station be published separately that the constitutional court disprove the grave accusations leveled against it that a legal investigation be launched and we will not accept results from any polling
1:12 pm
stations where boarding been take place properly. the announcement came as reports of alleged leaked results give president a big win in the first round but governments see the reports are baseless and reiterate that only the high electoral commission has the authority to announce the results showed your friday public opinion in mali is extremely polarized at the moment peter supporters see him as the man from mali and say he's managed to sign a peace agreement with northern rebels and to create a level of stability during his five year term but his opponents describe his leadership as disastrous and blame him for the increase in armed attacks in the north and ethnic infighting in the center of the country and now they accuse him of riggin sunday's vote in his favor. opposition leader so my list again to increasing support before during the campaign or printing polls showed him leading close
1:13 pm
behind president peter eighteen presidential candidates means the opposition is united more than ever before still not clear if that will lead to civil disobedience and public rallies such as those that forced the president. to cancel a referendum on constitutional changes last year. and dizzy. three russian journalists who were killed in the central african republic were investigating a private russian security force the major organization that hired the journalist says they were filming a documentary on the wagon a group that's a private security company with mostly russian employees who were involved in conflict zones around the globe the russian military has been providing weapons and training to say our forces. syrian government forces have regained control of all the land along the border with the israeli occupied golan heights isolate fighters gave up their last pocket of territory in the area after a six week military campaign according to russian media pro runyan forces withdrew
1:14 pm
to eighty five kilometers from israeli held territory israel had asked for moscow's support to help keep back pro iranian troops. as the syrian government continues to reclaim territory the road to the border crossing with jordan is ready and damascus is looking at prospects of reopening it the closure of the nasty crossing in two thousand and eleven has weighed on the economy of syria and neighboring states and heard reports from a man. jordan wanted exports to flow through what was once a lucrative trade route the syrian government's recapture than a sea crossing from the opposition in early july was welcomed by officials here damascus says the road is now ready for use and is waiting for jordan to officially request the resumption of commercial activity it may be using this as leverage to define a new relationship. a syrian regime they have their own political agenda they will make demands and impose conditions on jordan the opening of the border won't happen
1:15 pm
right away from my experience with the regime jordan for something in return that could be an official recognition of syrian president bashar assad's legitimacy officially jordan was one of the few arab states that didn't cut diplomatic relations with damascus and kept the channel for military cooperation and intelligence sharing open but ties were affected in the early days of the conflict jordan's king abdullah called on assad to step down that approach later changed with the priority being the protection of national security interests it has been a difficult balancing act for jordan it likes to describe its policy toward the syrian crisis as it called for a political solution and it didn't call for regime change as a condition to end the crisis the kingdom to a certain extent followed an independent course from its allies who were supporting the opposition despite its cautious approach jordan along with the u.s. and saudi arabia did back the opposition in southern syria but when damascus was
1:16 pm
close to victory it convinced many rebels to surrender it is enough for them to reopen its embassy in damascus and this would be tantamount to acknowledge them until they did. bashar to stick but not the player. or definitely clearly in favor of the regime so russia is going to want there's no question about that. with that you have a neighbor like this you need to deal with that many jordanians accuse the assad government of crimes against humanity but public opinion seems ready to accept the reality because of the benefits to the struggling economy now it's a fact that assad would steal syria and everybody wants you. know to see that russia and if everybody. in the sea it's very good for our economy what people will be. the neighboring countries are on the road toward restoring relations but jordan will first have to pay a political price for their leader
1:17 pm

1:28 pm
including prominent journalist sardar his wife and two children all four shot point blank to the head. afghan authorities say the four gunmen had guns and ammunition in their shoes to evade security we are still waiting for of for all those investigation to take place. where the. windows are going to have to use a more human maybe you can have a long. time over such a moment you know. the knowledge among which they might have would come out but the list goes from a motorcycle is not all good i'm going to go to would most of them out raise with management that chemical. when you go to shrink post by johnny johnny that i was in for like an insulator they chose and they didn't even abort is assessed. by the v. because i've got a lot of luck on the raft myself we're going to yes and then you. called
1:29 pm
me because in the washroom if i'm going to first question. tony is either one of them. i would be going to a lot of. this is sardar and these are things i got his boss at the f.b.i. let me have a few things from his desk he had this really weird cute love of pine cones one time he was like hold out your hand so i did any put a pine cone in my hand i think it was this one actually he was really into the free a.j. staff. thing in cairo and we had a day here where we all went to the al jazeera bureau. it sort of missed it and so he came to my office and he had me take a picture of him holding this and it's like now like a widely used photo of him so i don't know i feel like trying to find out what
1:30 pm
happened to him is maybe would bring some closure and is that i don't really know what else to do. there are so many unanswered questions as per usual the taliban claimed responsibility but we think there's more to the story. so he was a guy and i think. if one knows him and when it deserves it and he deserves that yeah definitely and he deserves that and me a new journalists so this is one responsibility we don't have guns on
1:31 pm
arms to go and fight with at the wrists our pen our camera our newspapers our own guns so let's fight through ductwork. so let us work over this issue to follow that what happened with some of the worst case what happened within the investigation which the afghan security officer else etc and then it. actually resulted in a normal story. that iran could try to move on past very. very small school many people during this exam and there's a visa to it and it's you know is a very good reasons all reason to do it it's got us all name great britain or france or. all the
1:32 pm
instant pomp and i have never been here i'm sure you have never been here you know a thing i hate this place. where nightmare happened. to me this is definitely amazing that such a p.h.p. hotel with ninety ports how it's possible a few tourists can get inside this plates everyone gets away with everything here you can go in an attack a hotel and kill people and kill children and nothing happens. so now we're going to try to get answers from the ministry of interior because obviously. they're the ones that were first on the scene and should know more about who these people were and what happened and how it all was even allowed to happen with duping what was in one's findings well unfortunately one of the exact findings because we
1:33 pm
submitted everything the scene. and all those proofs and evidence to the end yes because they were responsible for the investigation of these kind of complicated terrorist attacks and that the two warring if we want a place like cyrano with more of the mighty courts can become addicted how did it happen how is that possible to do rather than the right person to every security personnel were in the same in the company you are the person with everyone or they were already investigated the government doesn't hold this arena accountable doesn't seem to keep going on they have their conference is people still so it's just they say ok yes we got a new security company and then that they're allowed to continue without paying and useless the government would not be able to cover that when insider was killed some of the guys were saying courtney john this is afghanistan as if that makes a change in our and i think that we should never accept that just because you have
1:34 pm
suffered attacks every year isn't that they continue that it's never and ok but the world should know that we've been here to price and it's not ok we shouldn't question love because it could lose the right to have you know like millions of other people around the world. george w. are covering a lot of it because while most love was flowing with us none of this would cause. for could not become consult horse around most of the money. most of us a lot of gov got our moment touch your lives all of this absorb the harvest that only you have joined with a yearning for joy without your who does it with. should i give an example yet of a great life like wot well my personal one with your first i remember the emotion in the well it could have you. had asked up but now you know the people who died
1:35 pm
for the wars but if you want to say that i was going to about it now i don't want to say you know it's probably the most intelligent case not ideologically directed but if you see a lot there's just became a lot of blows away about it but he's just used to that how but. talking about my concerns for my family members when something happens first then comes.
