12:01 pm
almost a month since the earthquake and tsunami so many people are still missing tens of thousands are homeless and there's ongoing concern for the welfare of children the most vulnerable in the aftermath of a disaster. the . president says that investigators have more evidence in the killing of jamal khashoggi which will be revealed when the time comes in an address to the ruling ak party in ankara. the one described saudi arabia's explanations for the journalists death as childish he's demanding more information about the operation from riyadh. of course there is other information and evidence that we are holding and they will be used when the time comes but there's no need to rush because in the first instance the saudi officials have to explain who killed. on monday they sent
12:02 pm
the chief prosecutor to stumble. they will meet with our chief prosecutor and have discussions. a check is politics news and it's a daily sub a daily english newspaper in turkey he joins us now live via skype from istanbul listening to what the president had to say on the the case to what do you make of it he's determined to keep up the pressure on saudi arabia and. i think this is one of the harsher remarks are than made on the case and he named both king solomon and mohamed bin selman to compress saudi arabia i think to toning off the toning and the language he used was significant in today's speech he was definitely harsher he said the explanations so far made by saudi arabia were childish and he demanded more concrete and consistent answers from saudi arabia so if we look at
12:03 pm
our go on speech on stop on tuesday. and the day after he made this was a more more sturdy and definitely more an attempt to basically corner saudi arabia and demand some substantial answers from them one of the issues that he highlighted is that who is the killer and who order the the incident basically so this these two he answered he questioned the m.p.'s as he's known. and the king solomon himself as well but he also brought to its two table the domestic collaborator that initially saw you prosecutors have said about as someone from from turkey being collaborating the eighteen or the fifteen people from saudi arabia so this they have to answer he said as well but i think one of the more significant in today's talk was the toning and the language
12:04 pm
as not used toward saudi arabia names. which he didn't even use during his on his tuesday speech what's your reading of why the president has done this compared to his speech on tuesday as you say he was gentle on saudi arabia arabia's leadership what's changed between tuesday and today. well i think i think in between. doing the investment for a. crown prince mohammed bin psalm on. my reading is that he did not give such factory comments or remarks to president are gone through his to use a speech so this could be in a way that i mean we can interpret it that i don't demands more. concrete collaboration and cooperation with turkey and needs to. provide more substantial answers to the international community on what happened to mr kushner
12:05 pm
e.g. who were the perpetrators who gave these orders and why was this done is gone mr daunt does not seem to be taking on. light answers from this saudi. kingdom at the moment so these are i think this is this is. i don't know him and demanding answers that will satisfy the international community not just to ease. government or turkish investigators but this is now an international incident that saudi arabia needs to answer to international communities and our don is pushing forward for that not just as simply as a as a an investigation on a on a murder but as you know he always mentions and says that this is. an issue of manatee that needs to be. basically
12:06 pm
a poem from the change in tone from the president one thing we did learn one piece new piece of information is that saudi arabia's public prosecutor is to travel to istanbul to meet to his counterpart on sunday a correspondent was telling us a few moments ago about this joint investigation and how the turkish side a frustrated by the lack of cooperation if you like from the saudi arabian side particularly when it comes to things like searching the well let the consul general rules made istanbul what do you make of the significance of that about saudi arabia's public prosecutor traveling to istanbul. well it is significant but i'm for i mean i'm not sure how much of a difference it will make on actually bring in bringing answers to do questions president are like keep supposing that regarding the who is who was in charge of this operation the persecutors coming into istanbul is significant in terms of it
12:07 pm
has a symbolic significance for saudi took your relations and looking into this case but how much question the actual prosecutor will be able to answer or will bring into daylight i think that will have to do with how much significance mohamed been salon and king solomon puts into into the investigation and into the hands of the prosecutor himself when he comes to stumble on sunday and that really good many thanks indeed for being with us mehmet pullets excuse that is a at the daily newspaper the united nations special report on summary or arbitrary killings says that jamal khashoggi was the victim of an extra judicial execution she's pointing the finger directly at the top level of the saudi leadership diplomatic and its a james pays reports from new york. agnus color mark does a very specific role for the united nations and it covers exactly the crime
12:08 pm
committed in the saudi consulate in istanbul three weeks ago she is the special rapporteur on extrajudicial summary or arbitrary executions with regard to the gruesome executor of saudi johnny's jamal khashoggi i want to add my voice to that of my colleague david cave the un special rapporteur on freedom of expression. to call for an international investigation into this murder after she raised the case in the u.n. committee that deals with human rights the saudi representative said she was exceeding her remit right up there with us thinking my divagations it was like to denounce this statement by the special rapporteur we call on her not to exceed her mandate on extrajudicial executions currently do not give us
12:09 pm
any personal opinion in this official meeting thank you question but she later went further in a news conference the special rapporteur telling me she believes on current evidence saudi arabia as a state is culpable for the murder when where where do we stop the where do we begin where do we stop our construction of the state there where we presenting the state when they acted as he acted the state cannot twice sheets and for me to responsibly tease so it doesn't matter whether the crown prince or the king say they didn't know of course it matters but that does not mean that the saudi state is not responsible. the special rapporteur has added her voice to the growing call for an international investigation but it's not clear how that will be launched the u.n. secretary general says he will only form a panel to investigate the case if he gets the referral from one of the main bodies

12:13 pm
a historic turning point in beijing the first japanese leader to visit in seven years the two countries have signed a series of trade agreements they will hold talks with china's president xi jinping in the coming hours despite growing trade ties in recent decades japan and china have had something of a strained relationship since the end of the second world war. two a choice from competition to cooperation relations between japan and china are in the process of entering a new era we agreed to move forward towards realizing peace cooperation of friendship this includes taking measures towards averting maritime accidents in the east china sea and working towards establishing a hotline as soon as possible between maritime an aerial communication mechanism steven knight is an associate professor at the christian university he says that both china and japan can gain from warmer relations as china deals with trade hostility from the u.s. . both countries would like to move their relation race relationship back to
12:14 pm
focusing on economics focusing on trade and to push aside some of the difficult political issues that really is a division between the two states who has the most to win this is very difficult question to ask but i think we can clearly understand that beijing is concerned about the sino u.s. relationship they're concerned about the trajectory of that relationship and they would like to it they're taking an economy at enemies approach and what i mean is that they'd like to put fires out within the region they'd like to warm relations with traditional rivals such as japan and concentrate the diplomatic efforts on the united states where china is looking for to take some of some of the heat off the earth off china japan plays a very important role in building norms within the region japan's trying to support something called the free and open in the pacific which focuses on rule based behavior in terms of trade but also in terms of maritime policy and china feels
12:15 pm
that by warming relations with japan we can get more economic. we can forge a better economic relationship it may be able to. use economic leaders to induce tokyo to put some distance between washington and tokyo now that i think that's unlikely and last i think china is worried about its own economic slowdown and its economic slowdown is going to require more technological infusion from japan most likely more f.b.i. foreign direct investment from japan and more trade which apparently a weather update next when i was here at the end as thousands of people continue their journey north through mexico the u.s. says that it will send extra troops to its southern border but some americans are offering a helping hand. and bombs in the mail the f.b.i. has the culprit targeting high profile opponents of donald trump with explosive arsenals.
12:16 pm
hello there for many of us across the southeastern parts of asia at the moment is plenty of sunshine and will say plenty of showers and we're in the nominee at the moment is a repose of the philippines here that's largely following dry conditions and that's because our huge a super typhoon out towards the east has stolen the energy from the atmosphere so there's none left for us it's just going to stay following showers though elsewhere nothing too severe there and it looks like most of us will see some bright spells in between the showers as well over towards australia over here it's been very very hot for many of us recently particularly in the south western parts of queensland here's a temperature chart them with the darker reds indicate where the hottest weather is and the beds bill there we've seen temperatures of around forty four degrees over the past couple of days this whole weather is trying to retreat it's
12:17 pm
a bit further north woods bernie with a limited amount of success so still very hot for many of us even as we had three cents today there's a bit of a change though hey you can see a spots of four cooler weather over the central part of australia and that's thanks to more cloud this here and also a few outbreaks of rain from this system as well that's working its way across parts of northern territory down through southall strayer as we head through saturday very heavy downpours from this it could cause a fair amount of disruption it's gradually trying to ease to it's for sunday. they're the children of jailed chinese criminals with nowhere else to go one beijing shelter is giving them a home when he speaks the children growing up with their parents behind bars on al-jazeera. al-jazeera where ever you.
12:18 pm
hello again this is al jazeera the main news this hour turkey's president says that investigators have more evidence of the killing of jamal khashoggi and he says that he will that it will be revealed when the time comes in an address to the ruling party in ankara such a top order one described saudi arabia's explanations for the journalists death as childish. rescuers continue to search the shore around the dead sea in jordan after flash flooding killed at least nineteen people most of them were children on
12:19 pm
a school outing nearly forty people were rescued after helicopters and divers were dispatched to help. japan's prime minister shinzo abbott says his country's ties with china have reached an historic turning point he's on a three day visit to china and is choosing meets with china's president xi jinping in the coming hours let's get more on the president was a speech a little earlier live to anchor al-jazeera saddam costello is there what are we to make of the change in tone between president earlier one speech on tuesday at his speech today. well actually there is not much change and i don't see the chair because he has he has could he while that he's committed to chase after the skis he is committed to chase to find out who the perpetrator who who the person is giving the orders so actually today
12:20 pm
is response was surprise in a way surprising but in another way it wasn't surprising actually you can hear that he has a stronger voice today because he says to saudi arabia if we cannot make those eighteen people talk since this crime this murder was committed in turkey stand them here and we will make them talk and there is one more important thing in his speech today he says we have reprieve all of the presented the evidence is that we had to the parties we are cooperating but we have more evidences so let's wait we don't have to be impatient we are patient we will see but we have more evidences is that so i believe this is a very strong message better because. after tuesday's speech the crown prince called president are gone and he had some statements saying that as long as king solomon. and himself are alive the saudi turkish relations are not are never going
12:21 pm
to be harmed but it seems president are gone really once the real name and he he will continue judging from his side and he actually wants a suspect or maybe once the responsible person here in turkey and of course the prosecutors are going to discuss it on monday with every detail is probably should have many thanks dude. the f.b.i. a sent teams to search mail sorting census in the u.s. trying to trace who's been sending bombs to high profile critics of president donald trump so far ten suspicious possums have been found pretty kohei in reports . another day another shot of a crude bomb being carted away to be deactivated on thursday in. similar to this found at a business owned by actor robert deniro two more devices found in delaware addressed to former vice president joe biden the targets are a who's who of the president's critics the very people the president has personally
12:22 pm
attacked many say this is proof the president has gone too far this has come from trump trump has used you know describe people who disagree with him as enemies of the people so people who support the other party are dangerous hateful crazy anti-american so it's very very hard to look at this and not lay a fair amount of the blame both squarely at the foot of donald trump but also what the other republicans who stood by for years let this happen at first donald trump took a conciliatory tone do you see how nice somebody. this is like i do you ever seen that it didn't last long he sent out a tweet just hours later blaming the mainstream media for the anger in the country his spokeswoman followed suit very. appropriately to disown her people used on your network a number of times not only to describe the president but to many people that work in this administration absolutely day in day out there is a negative tone ninety percent of the media attention around this president is
12:23 pm
negative despite historic job creation his supporters in the media when even further claiming both sides are to blame were and do not sit there and point to what the other team did to cause this we don't know the perpetrator we don't know the motivation but it was interesting because hillary clinton says we can't we can't step aside from hateful rhetoric and tell democrats have bullied their way she was talking about policy america is a country divided so much so that even an attempt to carry out the mass killing of the country's political opposition is now seen as something to debate petty calling al-jazeera washington. donald trump says that he's sending eight hundred u.s. troops to the southern border he wants them to stop thousands of people from entering the u.s. the seven thousand strong so-called migrant caravan has been walking through. walking north through mexico for more than a week now most to from honduras guatemala and say that trying to escape poverty
12:24 pm
and gang violence john holdren reports from shop us. the dynamic has really changed on this caravan of people the been heading so many miles from home duress trying to get to the u.s. border you can see now that instead of those images of a river of people really heading by for now a lot of people are even getting rides from willing members of the mets compulsion elation all paying about two and a half dollars to get on these small buses they call them here come the see and what that means is that they're advancing quicker than when they had to get there on foot there are lots of women also lots of children in this current band of more than seven thousand people to covering big distances but we still estimate that it's going to be probably more a month more than a month until they reach the united states of course there's something happening before that time and that's the u.s. mid-term elections and this is now being seen as one of the crucial issues in the
12:25 pm
election race president trump has certainly been using it to talk about the fact of this a mass migration to the u.s. border and using that really as a sort of a weapon to say that only he can guarantee stronger borders he requested for the military to actually be sent to the us mexico border we understand that's going to be about eight hundred twelve thousand troops they won't be arresting and detaining people they can't do that without permission from congress they'll instead be helping out more with administrative tasks but it definitely sends a message as this group of people go through mexico they say that they're really unaware of that political dimension for them this is about pure survival they say they're not earning enough even to live in their homeland for many of them that's home douras and they're also having to pay extortion to the many gangs that are really warring in parts of that country for them this is simply about trying to get
