hospital and have an hour but the staff can't go home yet. they're staying on to discuss the proposed changes to the cuban constitution thousands of these government organized meetings are taking place across the island over the next three months it's the most comprehensive change to the country's constitution in over forty years we're going to look at the word but i'm here to fulfill my revolutionary duty i haven't read the full project but i think it's all great. last month cuba's national assembly approved the draft constitution after several days of televised debate. the main changes proposed establishing term limits on the presidency was lamenting the communist party as the sole governing body on the island. the process will help strengthen the unity of all cubans around the revolution. but cuba's legislators had to make concessions to reflect an evolving society and to try to ensure

a more sustainable economy for the first time since the castro led revolution to power the proposed magna carta recognizes private property long considered an enemy of a socialist society. same sex marriage has also been proposed perhaps the most visible of social issues to feature in the constitutional draft the government is encouraging cubans to read this document in detail it's made available for sale at newsstands all across the island and to take part in the public meetings about it the leadership here says these meetings are emblematic of the country's democratic process while critics of course dismiss the entire exercise a pointless. the problem they say is that the government is only affecting changes to benefit themselves not ordinary people but for a society that has barely experienced any constitutional change since the soviet era many analysts argue that even small changes matter. cuba is changing and the

constitution is part of that change called make the change. the constitution is not a change. everything people want to know will it give everything that they expect. the process from here is a painstaking one officials are expected to take down the participants commons and send them back to the assembly they're going to run a cuban's will been vote on a final document in a referendum early next year julia galliano al-jazeera. colombia's governments blocking chesham hunters from salvaging what they're calling the holy grail a ship wrecks the spanish san jose galley and sank more than three hundred years ago and they said to be carrying billions of dollars in gold and precious stones manuel rapunzel reports. stories of ship wrecks and sunken treasure have long captivated the imagination. but perhaps no wreck has fascinated

had everything the cargo manifest lists gold silver precious stones pearls all of the wealth from taxes collected over six years from colombia and. this is. literally wrote the book on the san jose he says there were several parties who have a legitimate claim to ownership over the treasure is the spain because it was a spanish ship the ruby because most of the cargo was peruvian. because part of the cargo was panamanian and colombia because the ship was founded on waters. recently a delegation from bolivia presented colombian officials with a two hundred page document claiming a percentage of the treasure should be given to them as reparations. it's believed there are more than one thousand sunken spanish galleons off the coast of colombia alone according to you know there's an estimated three million shipwrecks all around the world still waiting to be discovered apart from the treasure the

cultural value of many of these vessels is a measurable. and don't your in he for an expert in maritime law says the case of the son who said could set a precedent for future disputes over sunken treasure get both prices all of the countries involved could set up an example of a historic cultural dialogue that would serve the world in similar situations. with so much at stake over the ownership of the treasure recovery efforts have been put on hold indefinitely leaving some here to wonder how much longer they'll have to wait before the treasure of the san jose surface is again. when looked up a little dizzy to get to him. a quick reminder now of our top stories. at least twenty six people have been killed in a highway bridge collapse in the italian city of genoa italy spain may just said because he has called it an immense tragedy and says such things should not have
