they have yeah i mean you talk about some of the intelligence assets that maybe it disposed but what sort of just talk us through what sort of evidence will that investigators be looking for to back up their claims that he was killed inside the diplomatic compound of a foreign country but we would clearly have video of him at or in the compound so that's that's that's beyond. what i'm suggesting is it's possible that either electronically or physical we knew there were a lot of ways to get access to for example listen even inside a structure there are very robust. electronic devices that allow you to listen in even though someone you could be outside remotely and listen to a conversation inside the structure if they have that coupled with video you'll actually hear what happened you'll hear their voices you'll hear you know. suggesting there was an interrogation followed by a very brutal murder if that's the case and if that's already on audiotape and or videotape you don't need anything else that's that that's the case right there may

be nice to have the principal evidence you know blood evidence physical physical evidence from the crime scene but if you have already on video that's not necessary and just away from that podium video for a second david as time passes there must be a big worry there that any evidence can be hidden or disposed of and the friends that trail get surrounded. yes but it hurts like and same thing if you have a taped conversation or an actual recording of the incident that's in the hands of the turkish government that's not going anywhere so you know if that's the key if that's the case that that's what's being reported now that's the case there is no there's no problem with blood evidence being cleaned up because it's not necessary if you actually have the contemporaneous video and audio that's the case just a simple expedient where we sit we see show we going into the count we see it on video and he doesn't leave now the suggestion that he left through another door ok that's possible but i promise you this there is no compound no consulate anywhere

but those not have security cameras on their door so if he did leave presumably the saudis would be able to take that camera footage showing him leaving so we don't have that just a little around here just also just a final fair for me david i mean there are reports that there would be a joint turkish saudi team set up to investigate the shell g.'s disappearance something that's raised a few eyebrows when and why would turkey want to share evidence with the very same country they're accusing of committing the crime in the first place or that they can't get access to the internet in in there's no there's no law any in any country that allows for example a search warrant to allow access to a depth of diplomatic mission so absent their cooperation they're not getting in and that that's probably good that that's probably the answer right there because you know. if they want to go in and examine what they believe is a crime scene without the saudi prince harry's permission that's not going to happen david katz thank you very much indeed for talking to al-jazeera. my pleasure

mexico beach a community that officials say has been wiped out the eye of hurricane michael came ashore with devastating consequences. most heeded the warnings to leave the search for those that ignored the evacuation orders is growing increasingly desperate when the storm hit it brought winds of two hundred fifty kilometers an hour making it one of the most powerful hurricanes to make landfall in the u.s. was like our lives are gone you know our lives everything we have is gone now the stuff we lost all our cars everything the stuff the stones. here we are can't. just hard to realize just what just happened mr. surviving it is the best the most important thing i think if we just be able to survive in nearby panama city to the picture is grim the cleanup here will be time consuming and costly but search and rescue efforts are a priority the national guard are on the ground along with search and rescue crews

but challenges remain one of the things that skill. pounding the problems here are situations like this where you've got downed trees and they are everywhere all across the florida panhandle and that is especially important for one reason that means the emergency services search and rescue can still not get to the areas where they're most needed as the powerful storm headed in land it brought misery to georgia and the carolinas but it's what happened here along the florida panhandle that will leave the longest lasting impact and agalloch road is zero east point florida in the major says it could take up to two years to rebuild the island of soloway zee after it was devastated by an earthquake and tsunami two weeks ago firefighters and soldiers are conducting a final search for survivors in the city of pollute the rescue effort was extended until friday at the request of residents more than two thousand people have been confirmed dead officials believe up to five thousand are still missing now there are some signs of easing on the global financial markets it comes after asian

european and u.s. stocks all fell heavily during thursday's trading investors fear the u.s. federal reserve will raise interest rates leading to higher financing costs for businesses it follows worries about trade tensions between the u.s. china and other major economies where peter cardillo the chief market economist at spartan capital securities has more details on what's behind the selloff in equities. the combination of trade issues and of course rising interest rates that is you know that have risen to levels that we haven't seen in almost. four or five years and so basically this is really what's impacting the market and has a spook investors now of course you know. interest rates basically rising for the right reason and that is the economy is doing is doing well

it's consistently strong and of course we don't have much inflation in fact the inflation news today was a bit of a surprise it actually came in a little bit low up but what is the real problem here i think the real problem is the trade war which china people are getting very very nervous about that because it appears that. at least for now there are no real big oshie ations that could probably indicate a deal some sort of a deal that would diminish the fear factor and would be earning season. i think that we'll see. some multinational cooperation is being hit by the tyrant's well trade tensions between the us and china on the agenda of the i.m.f. and world bank annual meeting in bali i met chief christine the god has warned

against a trade war even though trade corporation has given an unprecedented period of growth and prosperity over the last seventy plus years. today it faces a backlash. partly because too many people have been left out. wisdom eight that discoloration of parents played dungeons could reduce global g.d.p. by almost one percent over the next two years. clearly we need to deescalate these disputes but just as clearly we need to reform the global trade system to make it even better fairer stronger. mutually beneficial to all nations and all people and fit for the future. but that means fixing the system

together not tearing it apart. joins us live now from bali scott saw global financial have lots to talk about but what will they be focusing on. there no absolutely it's a lot about trade tensions as we heard there from the head of the i.m.f. because it's such a wide cast shadows that is cast by this trade tension because when you have the two top economies in the world engaged in trade tensions that has knock on effect and to talk about this further let's bring in curtis chin he is a former u.s. ambassador to the asian development bank so obviously these trade tensions have a knock on effect yes in the region because of the two nations involved but also even beyond that because of just how pervasive and how deep these economies go around the world right absolutely you know if you think about some of the big stories the big trends we're hearing about here at the world back i.m.f. beatings clearly the big one is still growing the perhaps lonely growth rate for

the global economy and one of the factors is very much the growing tensions between the united states are trying to as you noted the two largest economies in the world you know trade drives growth but at the same time despite the worries a lot of skepticism of what's going on in that relationship you know i'm an optimist and i feel if this leads to a more balanced sustainable relationship between the two largest economies that was that's a good thing for global growth will there be a bit of growing pains before that actually happens because you get exactly as you're saying you know this is kind of it could be a process that's better for nations globally for the economy in the long run but there could be some growing pains in this you the right absolutely you know with there it's a fast paced slow pace you know pace of growth there's always been forty going to be losers as well as winners and so the challenge when we think about what the world bank with the i.m.f. by old your position at the age of a bank what these institutions are doing they're driving growth but i hope they can also focus on addressing the issue of inequality you know not all people will benefit at the same time to the long run again as we think about he just the world

that we live in what president trump is clearly done is disrupted what had been the . story of these last two decades i say which has been the steady growth of china actually china to excrete credit has hundreds of millions of people out of poverty but this is china has grown up it too has to grow up in its relationship to interaction with the rest of the world and one thing that one idea that's been floated in the kind of discussed here is that the you know you have these emerging economies some that have their you know extreme poverty around the world and because of what's going on with the trade tensions it could affect them disproportionately say that there's you know a third remove country from the united states or from china but because of these trade wars they're jek to get out of extreme poverty is stymied because of what's going on so there is kind of a knock on knock on effect yes you know clearly you have now with a group of the militants to one of the themes really focus on this year is this world in transition and as you know the trade tensions trade wars clearly going to impact markets around the world including emerging markets but the same time i

would note that there may well be benefits let me give you an example as we think about u.s. and china that terracing of things become more expensive what may well happen in the long term will be for the good wishes of warm and balanced supply chain for the manufacturing companies of this region of the world and not everything we placed in one country say a china but that trend also has already been in process as china as it's gotten richer its labor costs have gone up also and so we may well see the speeding on of this process where other countries were actually also benefit as a trade relationship the united states and china i just think and some absolutely and some of those nations who could benefit from this right here right in southeast asia because they are because their proximity to china and the shifting supply chain they could benefit from this the increase of labor in china but also the trade tension with the united states right now and i'm struck by something i imagine director of the i.m.f. christine lagarde said yesterday she was asked if she thought about the world ahead of us which she really worried why she optimistically she concerned and she came

back and said that she was desperately optimistic i you know i'd rather say that i perhaps or. let loose the optimist but pragmatically optimistic i think business is in this region business all around the world will be very pragmatic and the group will be the long term implications of these growing tensions between the us and actually i'm no fan of trade wars but my hope is that now this will become again even worse sustainable relationship between china and the u.s. and that will be a good thing going to see it thank you very much for your time so there are now we see that there are some growing pains that the global economy will face yes because of what's going on in attention to the united states and china but also just the evolving economy and the different economies that might have different place once this trade tension is finally subsided and we can move forward there scott thank you. bob and police arrested several labor union leaders to prevent strikes against the worsening economy they had planned to protest against price rises and shortages a few of the medicine people are blaming a new tax on bank transactions for pushing up prices the government says the new

from russia a service to mark the historic move was held in the capital kiev follow the decision by the ecumenical patriarch in istanbul the spiritual leader of three hundred million orthodox believers worldwide under simmons reports from here they're all of one faith but there's nothing spiritual about what's going on beyond the silence of prayer and thought leaders of the orthodox churches here are split they're either pro russian or they want independence and a break from being answerable to the orthodox patriarch in moscow. as a church we try to be independent from it because we don't like russia or so or something else but we see how a russian empire through centuries use orthodox church in our land as

a tool of imperial polis in this sacred place to the faithful the archbishop's words sound political that's because they are there's a potent mix in ukraine of religion and power politics you only have to look around the corner here to see the thought of messaging that's going on violence and death more than one hundred protesters were killed in the my down uprising of twenty fourteen the lead to the fall of pro russian president viktor yushchenko of each then came russia's annexation of crimea and the conflict with pro russian separatists in eastern ukraine now in its fifth year. ukraine's president petro poroshenko stands accused by russia of pushing for orthodox church independence from moscow to boost his chances of winning another term in elections next year in moscow the patriarch a to sees itself as the mother church and it says independence for ukraine will be
