it's an incredible deal it's an incredible deal for both parties most of the u.s. and mexico agreed to overhaul the nafta trade deal but canada has yet to sign off on it. and on taters is down to zero live from london also coming up genocide crimes against humanity and war crimes the u.n. says myanmar military chiefs should be prosecuted for genocide against the regime in rakhine state. the french president says the european union must stop depending on the u.s. for its security. and on crutches and now on bail popstar turned opposition politician bobby wine is released in uganda.

under the united states and mexico have agreed to overhaul the north american free trade agreement known as nafta discussions focused on new rules for the automotive industry a central issue for president trump who is described nafta as a disaster for american workers canadian prime minister justin trudeau is now under pressure to agree new terms to remain part of a three nation pact and he's assured mexico's president of his commitment to the agreement because she actions have dragged on for more than a year and threats by trump to ditch the nine hundred ninety four accord of course turbulence on the financial markets but in pressure on the mexican peso and the canadian dollar speaking from the oval office the us president praised the new deal . this is something that's very special for our manufacturers and for our farmers from both countries for all of the people that work for jobs it's also great trade

and it makes it a much more fair bill and we are very very excited about it we have worked long and hard your representatives have been terrific my representatives have been fantastic to. they've. they've got along very well and they've worked late into the night for months extremely complex built and it's something that i think will be talked about for many years to come. just good for both countries as far as canada is concerned we haven't started with canada yet we wanted to do mexico and see if that was possible to do and it wasn't i think it wasn't from any standpoint something that most people thought was even doable when we started if you look at it you remember at the beginning many people thought that this was something that just couldn't happen because of all of the different factions all of the different sides and the complexity and we made it much simpler much better much better for both countries

and i will have all the reaction from john heilemann in mexico city first though let's go to the committee how could they just in washington d.c. can release to a lot of detail to be handed out. a lot of details but this was five weeks in the making in terms of the negotiations so that is one of the reasons why donald trump is hell and this is a success really he was looking to keep a pledge to those who supported him in the twenty six c. u.s. election particularly when it comes to the automotive sector the manufacturing sector saying he would bring back jobs he may recall on the campaign trail called the north american free trade agreement one of the worst deals ever and so soon after becoming president set about to renegotiate the deal now canada has not for its part been involved in the negotiations in recent weeks those talks breaking down a lot of issues there simply because of the tariffs on steel aluminum that the united states placed on on that canadian product but in terms of the negotiations with

mexico they still continued and are somewhat of a success for the u.s. president many believe because this is socially could make sure now that when it comes to the american cars that are made in the united states that they actually are made in the united states the new agreement require seventy five percent of those cars and parts to be manufactured in the united states initially that agreement with just sixty two percent of what we saw were a lot of jobs going south of the border jobs donald trump says he will now be able to bring back to the united states so if there is this shaping out to be some something of a political victory for donald trump. it certainly is but it is a guarded one given the fact that this is just a bilateral agreement lauren and it has to be approved by the u.s. congress and the trade deal must be approved by the u.s. congress and they're going to be some republicans even members of the president's own party that could potentially push back because of some of the other trade disputes perhaps that it are affecting farmers so this is not a deal that has been sealed and the other thing after member in all of this is the

nafta agreement is a trilateral trilateral deal right now we just have a bilateral agreement any changes to nafta must be signed onto by canada so we know that the canadian foreign minister is set to come to washington to try and negotiate there is a lofty goal of trying to get those agreements worked out by friday seems like that may be a difficult challenge given the fact that it's taken weeks to get to this point it's hard to see that that could be accomplished obstacles overcome in just a matter of days committee how could thank you very much. let's get a view now from mexico our correspondent on homeowners in mexico city for us what was the reaction there. when the mexican delegation has just come out to speak in washington d.c. the press conference ended not long ago and they're also trying to talk up the deal as a success the the outcoming administration and the incoming administer the outgoing

sorry administration the incoming administration has got representatives there and they all said that we presented a united front especially the incoming administration said we went there for damage limitation really with this process and we feel that we've got some wins out of this when you actually see the key point to this is kimberly there said it does seem more of a winning for the united states the mexico you'd expect out of the more powerful party in this trade deal and they were the ones that wanted to rigaud showed up as well as seventy five percent of car parts having to be made in this north american region also the fact that forty percent of car parts of the olds from a tree of production has to be from work has learning sixteen dollars or more an hour and that basically means workers from the united states or canada so that really can't be seen as a win in the short term for mexico we have to wait and see what the car makers the international call makers are in the country do about that where they start to move

the parts to the united states routes out of the country where the next car manages to come to terms with and change and hopefully start paying its workers more which is what certainly the new incoming administration wants to happen but i think the general sensation here in the country is that there's been a lot of losses for nuff there especially for small scale farmers in the countryside they've seen their market basically flooded by subsidized large scale united states farm goods but there have been enough wins from this day when there's enough trade next book it's going to be united states eighty percent of. mexican exports go stateside really as long as the deal wasn't going to be too punishing for mexico they had to make it and that's what they've done now we have to see what comes next mexico would like to see canada also to be added to this in the cult in the conference call between president trump and president pena nieto with several reporters there president pena nieto said several times we really want to see

canada at this as part of this deal his future foreign minister said that was indispensable so now we have to see what can happen with those negotiations gentlemen thank you very much. u.s. president donald trump has held talks with his kenyan counterpart in her kenyatta the white house is the second time trump has met a leader from sub-saharan africa since taking office that he just discussed trade in and investment as well as strengthening security cooperation. u.n. investigators say myanmar's top military generals should be investigated and prosecuted for genocide against the regime injure in rakhine state a new report describes the targeted killing of thousands of revenge or as the disintegration of a community it says the persecution of the muslim minority in myanmar has led to a system of institutionalized oppression from birth to death to me and more army

started so-called clearance operations after several military posts were attacked in rakhine state last august the un says reports of up to ten thousand revenge or killed are a conservative estimate around seven hundred fifty thousand also fled to neighboring bangladesh witnesses detailed mass killings arson attacks and gang rapes one ringtone describes herself as lucky as she was only raped by three men several army commanders are named as being responsible for atrocities the u.n. says their cases should be referred to the international criminal court or tribunals and the un says there's enough evidence of war crimes being committed report also says the generals committed crimes against humanity and war crimes in catching and shan states both dominated by other ethnic minorities the mission has concluded that criminal investigation and prosecution is warranted focusing on the top tech mentor generals in relation to the three categories of crimes under

international law genocide crimes against humanity and war crimes we have examined the period since two thousand and eleven. the violations we have identified during this period are part of a history of abusive military conduct going back at least half a century they continual repetition is the result of the complete immunity accorded to the military commanders and the virtually complete impunity of troops. now to jim jim there's more from cox's bazaar in neighboring bangladesh where hundreds of thousands of ranger refugees live in camps. for him to activists we've spoken with many of whom have been accusing the military and then more of genocide for some time now the news that a u.n. panel of investigators is recommending that top tier military officials in myanmar be charged with and put on trial for crimes of genocide is welcome news but they are cautiously optimistic the activists that we've spoken to have said look this

sets a good precedent but it must be followed through they want to see the international criminal court actually step in and prosecute these officials in myanmar that have been accused of committing crimes of genocide but they also are aware they're telling us that this is something that could be riddled with complications it's going to be a difficult and long process what's interesting is that this news is coming just two days after there were mass demonstrations here include just a long campaign cox a bizarre bangladesh on saturday which was the first year anniversary of the brutal crackdown by me and mars military and rakim state a crackdown and violence that led to the exodus of over seven hundred thousand rohinton a we're now located here in the world's largest refugee camp in that anniversary on that day you had thousands of people demonstrating and they were carrying signs and they were calling that day genocide remember and say it was

a day when it was the largest demonstration they were hindu had held and as the whole time that they had been in this camp they were remarkable scenes you had men and women and young and old and they were coming out and calling for accountability and a lot of what they said is really in line with what we heard from this you an investigative panel today so as i mentioned it is a sense of cautious optimism from the activists who we've spoken with but again they understand this is going to be a long and difficult process. the german chancellor angela merkel was warned vigilante justice will not be tolerated after a far right protests broke out in the eastern city of kemet hundreds to part of the rally with some reportedly chasing and attacking foreigners it follows the fatal stabbing of a man on sunday which police have blamed on syria and iraq a national zoo tensions have been high since metals government allowed a million asylum seekers to enter germany in twenty fifteen french president in one
