about. the extradition issue with the church saying that basically they would like to see the eighteen people responsible for the killing goes over well he should be extradited and tried here in turkey is something that has been dismissed by the saudi government and also questions that the turkish government says it needs answers about particular when it comes to what exactly happened who gave the orders or was responsible higher up in the saudia hierarchy and also ultimately where is the body of the and i think this is a list those answers and those questions are answered by the saudi government given what reassurances to the or turkish authorities were deaf to going to brace for more tension between the two countries and of course if turkey isn't happy and as we've seen in the last three weeks there is this slow stick systemic release of information tit bits as we say of of what the turkish believe actually happened
1:01 pm
and that's putting pressure on saudi arabia to come clean and that's really something you might say the cards that turkey holes at the moment is that if riyadh doesn't play ball turkey releases more information. and also see if the vote that tactic by the turkish government has been in a way or another paying off basically the president doesn't want is saying that there are other crucial elements the. that the turkish government still possess about killing goes about hushmail you wish it would ultimately use and this has we've seen the pattern which is basically saudi arabia shifting its narrative and account about what happened to so many from zero brought something that went terribly wrong to admitting that though this was pretty dated but fair and the as far as the turkish government is concerned there are two issues here first of all
1:02 pm
they would like to know exactly what happened as a model and what is his body that's number one the number two priority for them is who gave the final order in saudi arabia for the hit squads to kill. and i think with also the international pressure which has been mounting over the last few days especially with the e.u. saying that they would like to come up with a coordinated stance on the what happened and i think this could further push the saudi government to come forward and say exactly who is responsible and what happened to them at all has a wealth of it we'll leave it there hashem of course continue to follow vents with you from istanbul thank you now the leaders of france germany turkey and russia have also held talks to find a way to end the war in syria speaking at a major summit in istanbul they call for syrians to lead the way in establishing peace and a new constitution that would pave the way for elections but the reports from

1:22 pm
a fascist president enjoy both sorrow and could the world's largest democracy will see a return to military rule under his leadership that discussion but first the conflict in ukraine has left thousands dead and more than a million people displaced with russia and its proxies still in control of crimea around the dog region is there any end in sight to this conflict and how worried should we be about neo nazi militias fighting on the ukrainian side earlier i spoke to this week's headliner ukraine's deputy prime minister ivana klim pushkin thought . i'd say thanks for joining me up front vice prime minister is it fair to say that more than four years into this conflict your government the government of ukraine has lost a war with russia in eastern ukraine. it's totally the opposite i think because i think that ukraine is a winning the war because ukraine is defending itself defending its territory if at
1:23 pm
the beginning we had to fight with volunteer battalions at this point we have one of the strongest armies in europe it ranks tenth in europe right now and we have the capacity to do with held to this attacks of the russian federation moreover i think we have been also successful in in securing the worldwide support to stand united and to deter the aggression of the russian federation you sure you are winning in that you have one of the strongest armies in europe yet you still don't control don't bust a territory roughly the size of closer with a population of more than six million people pro russian separatists of controlled region of ukraine since the summer of twenty fourteen and you know we're near to getting rid of them and getting that back or you well it's not about pro russian separatists and we have to straighten up our language it's about regular russian army which is on the territory of ukraine all of the so-called separatists they have been aligned and trained and provided with weapons by the russian federation
1:24 pm
and they have been managed by the russian federation colette look more of their point is you haven't beaten them and you haven't taken but some way into the fifth year of this war how can you say you're winning. because we have taken a very conscious decision to follow on the international law and we are tearing to the minsk agreements that we've our president has signed and we have promised that we will be taking over the territories back only by political and diplomatic whence but not with the attacks by our military we have to be able to name spade a spade and not pretend that there is any type of civil war or whatever going on in ukraine its foreign aggression and ukraine is taking care of. itself and holding this holding this attack from the russian federation and yes
1:25 pm
unfortunately we're spending a huge human capital on this war unfortunately we have so many people that we have more than twenty five thousand wounded as well both civilians and military and it's not easy and i think that calls on the international community to work more. in united in united fashion together and to ensure that they are creating pressure for the russian federation you say it's all foreign aggression not a civil war and any foreign aggression is a big part of the story no doubt about it but to say there is no civil conflict is just disingenuous you take crimea for example which the russians took over how it's controversial referendum in twenty four teams now we can argue about the polling or the referendum results but the reality is lots and lots of ethnic russians living in crimea were perfectly happy to not be part of ukraine and to be part of russia since then you have more ethnic russians moving into crimea about ukrainians leaving crimea the russians have expanded their presence in crimea you will never
1:26 pm
get in crimea back surely that's a reality now that you just have to accept no we don't have to accept this reality we have seen the sample of baltic states that have been occupied by the soviet union for more than fifty years and. for that matter the u.s. for example did not recognize this this occupation of the. as as a legal one of the u.s.s.r. of this baltic republics and that's exactly will be the case that with the crimea it will one day come back here saying would you meet me half way and say there are plenty of people who are not happy with me from kiev would you accept that. it's not about being unhappy with the rules from it's about that fact that quite a few of. russian citizens have already moved in crimea at this particular point that the terror and the human rights violations in crimea are just terrific people
1:27 pm
are afraid to speak out and no one is denying the human rights abuses either by russian forces or russian separatists but the u.n. which of mana to the conflict in produce reports on the conflict have put out detailed report accusing both sides of human rights abuses they've accused the government of ukraine of using artillery and shelling against civilian areas what's your response to the united nations. we have this special monitoring mission of the oil on the territory of ukraine and now we are talking with you about donbass we're not talking about crimea let's be straight about that and clear about that yes and we are very appreciative that we have this mission because this mission particularly can give objective information on the what is happening ukrainian military do have the right to fight back when they are being or when they are being shelled by the russian forces they don't have to show really in areas which is what human rights and international monitors have said it's not about selling this of ilion areas but unfortunately sometimes russian federation forces are stationing
1:28 pm
their ammunition and for example kindergarten in for example the hospital so there could be somewhat something that is going in the direction of the particular minister there the russians say that your country your government is a hotbed of fascists and nazis which is obviously not true i know the far right have not thank you. so they don't don't do well electorally but here's the problem outside of elections they do have a presence in ukraine and even in poll imminent you have a speaker of parliament and reprove be who was the co-founder of a neo nazi party swoboda formally known as the social national party of ukraine which was founded on the basis that quote we are the last hope of the white race pretty embarrassing that some of our the speaker of your parliament. i think you are running this on the false information first of all because he has nothing to do with anything of the neo nazis ultra right you do not go from sloboda to the social
1:29 pm
no you would have based on the national polls you haven't been part of that that's one thing and the other one he has been part of it which has nothing to do with this but that's one thing and another thing is that ukrainians as opposed to many of the european countries right now do. not have all to rights in the parliament for example i am i would be worried about all this ultra rights getting to the parliaments in germany to the to the parliaments in italy to the parliaments in other countries of europe speak up out of b. is absolutely. centrist it certainly does are well it started well documented fact in ukraine and beyond as you know that he was and is of the social national which is a far right. is you can you can judge by his does whatever he is doing and he has nothing to do with ultra right parties that's one people and other never look it up for themselves it's not just to speak of you paula but no it's to get your government
1:30 pm
interior minister your company colleague also now have a call who has close ties to the isle of battalion which is a neo nazi militia that uses symbols borrowed from the waffen s.s. he even appointed an i was of commanders police chief of the kiev region which was condemned by the chief rabbi of ukraine i am ok with the police chief in kiev with the police chief in ukraine who are providing for a secure organisation of pride's which we've been having every single year for a couple of years in their role and they are growing in their in their numbers i am ok with them providing are you ok with the arms of battalion for one of the strongest militias i. know that the militia of their professional work on. the work of the vice president are you ok with you know that you are talian that does not have anything to do with any political affiliation i think that we are making sure that people who have been. accused of and who have been actually doing
1:31 pm
have been seen as doing something wrong they would be brought to justice and justice are being given in uniforms that bush called the national militia your government has brought in a bunch of militias into the military security services you know that i think it's you know. quite a few of our international observers were so dissatisfied and so concerned with the fact that ukrainians first were fighting the war against russian federation with the with the help of volunteer battalions and now and then there was a request and there was a clear willingness also from the ukrainian side to ensure that those volunteer battalions would become parts of the. whoever wants to continue serving would become parts of the armed forces all the police and and therefore whoever was. serving well and whoever wanted to even if they're from you know he groups like the
1:32 pm
house of batley they i'm not talking about as of battalion level so much time as of battalion why would all of us here do you know i'm sitting here. to be a white supremacist near nazi group because their members wear swastikas they found the talks about the white supremacy and white pride do you consider the hours of battalion to be in your nazi group in every single in every single country you would have different people and all of them have they were also about the. middle having i'm of the notion of the i thought that was one of the biggest wish any to be an early season of this state you could almost nationalism the last thing to do with a needle through the aisles of the telly was linked to the state so there is a little danger here is you know there is no linkage of the of the as of battalion to the state no no should we even you and your to disown them do you consider them to be a neo nazi group. i i do not think that they are neo nazi group but they do and they are not connected to the state and that's why the red line is and when amnesty
1:33 pm
international says the ukrainian state is rapidly losing its monopoly on violence pointed to all these militias that now control the streets in agreement with your interior ministry that doesn't worry you you want to be a liberal democracy join the e.u. and you have these militias basically attacking l g b t protests attacking gatherings of roma supporters. you know the one the government that is speaking out with great concern and. and less necessity to react by law enforcement whenever such cases that happening and i think it would be wrong to just close the eyes if something of that type is happening but again you have to understand that quite a few cases that are being portrayed or being reported initially as some in told are and cases of attacks then it turns out later on that it turns out that quite a few of them do have the russian russian. trace in it where you see to show russia
1:34 pm
when human rights watch talks about brutal attacks on roma people people rights activists when i'm the she says the same thing when freedom house or the senate is not all russian conspiracy no but partially it is that's one thing and the other yes yes there are there are there are cases where russia is working unfortunately very actively also inside ukraine that's one thing and another thing is that whenever these cases are happening we are reacting fiercely against them and the law enforcement is taking care of that bad marriage education about your chance that and where you know i would also want to see more. professional approach back home but i think when you are rebuilding the whole institution sometimes it takes time to rebuild them and it takes time for them to to react properly so yes we do have separate cases and i was very concerned for example with what has happened with roma people definitely you know i'm one of
1:35 pm
those that is speaking out at the governmental level at the national level in order to ensure that this is not happening anymore next year you're going to have presidential elections in ukraine in march twenty nine thousand is president poroshenko going to run again in the election do you think he should run again he's been dogged with all sorts of allegations about corruption in central. i think that president carter center has done incredible job of uniting the nation and leading its against their aggression and also working very closely with all the international allies and i think that he should run because right now we do have you know quite a ground for populism in ukraine and the other forces that are raising their hands are not as genuine as they are trying to portray themselves unfortunately vice prime minister's inside so we'll have to leave it there thank you for joining me on up front thank you. on
1:36 pm
october twenty eighth brazilians will head to the polls with far right can the ball sonora expected to win the presidency he's an ex army captain who makes trump and do turn to look like moderates he's known for praising torture telling a female congresswoman she was too ugly for him to rape her and saying he'd rather his son die than come out as gay so what's behind the sudden rise of an inflammatory figure like paul sonora who threatens violence against his opponent and the yearns for military dictatorship and is the world's fourth largest democracy under threat if he wins joining me to discuss this are david miranda a city councilman from rio de janiero from the socialism and liberty party who run for a congressional seat earlier this month and balika a professor of international relations at the catholic university of rio we also did reach out to several boston or supporters who all declined our invitation david moniker thank you both for joining me up front monocle why a brazilians voting in such huge numbers for a man who suggested brazil should return to
1:37 pm
a military regime has threatened his opponents what has happened to millions of brazilians the world is wondering i think that there are processes that are peculiar to brazil and some of this processes are more international and there is a huge feeling of exclusivity exclusion from social and economic life but also exclusion from political life and people are reacting with indignation and they. founded this candidate channel chewed express their indignation because he is so different from all the other political parties and particular political leaders that we have had so it is indeed to have very sad no other political party or political leader was able to channel this feeling of indignation but we are waiting for the results and there is a huge amount of a captive audience of a society in reaction to the terrible things that he has been saying and defending
1:38 pm
and on the terrible things he's been saying monica and the international media of called him brazil's trump but in many ways he's far more extreme than donald trump isn't yes i think that it's quite different actually it's it's related but it's quite different the way he talks about violence as a solution for internal problems is quite different from donald trump there are similarities in terms of that kind of capitalism of for from the right but in fact it is quite different and more extreme i totally agree with you david what do you make of the comparisons between both of the interim yeah i think. right i think he's more closed to do for the president or. detain or ship we can say like the way he expressed so much hate
1:39 pm
speech has already have a riyadh since he wants the first turn. bursts into the streets so he's just used people's fear and. he can be deported who can break the system they desperately need to be buried and yeah he's nothing like your party you'll pay . to the both sonora serves the very left wing socialism of liberty polity one just five feet in the lower house it's one of the reasons you get elected to parliament yourself the center left workers' party the p.t. despite governing brazil for fourteen years trailed both sora by seventeen percent in the first round of the election so it's a lot of his success to do with the family is of the brazilian left yes we have a untied p.t. movement and he's grown since the two thousand and thirteen grew so much. it's it's in a prison now for more than the breeze and he try to win this election and that was
1:40 pm
a b t. two so there was a split between the lofton like a lot of now and the second round we are all united together nevertheless just have to say beattie has made a lot of mistakes along the years so the part of the criticize bt for i think other candidates would be able to compete. like we would see and am i right in saying monica he doesn't have corruption allegations against him which helps him in a country where a lot of politicians are corrupt i think i think that had that the brazilian political system is actually at very much prone to corruption this is a huge problem it came out during the workers' party tenure because they actually allowed it to come out and they are allowed to be investigated so they are of
1:41 pm

wisconsin in twenty fifteen nine african-americans were gunned down at a church in charleston a year later twenty six were killed at a church in rural texas. following the pittsburgh attack police around the united states increased patrols in synagogues and other houses of worship as americans more it takes leadership to stop us and our leaders are not stopping at it's too much we're a civilized society but the u.s. anti-defamation league says hate crimes against religious groups are on the rise and the pittsburgh synagogue shooting now considered the deadliest attack on jews in american history can really help get al-jazeera. joins me now live from pittsburgh and let's begin with these charges that are being filed against the suspect. yet twenty nine charges in all against robert bowers someone who wasn't known to police before the surrender sacked on saturday morning we know
1:53 pm
those charges include hate crimes and weapons charges or which potentially as you said carry the death penalty we believe the f.b.i. tomorrow will highlight specifically what those charges are and what the implications are of course this is a really tight knit jewish community here and school hill in pittsburgh behind me there is a sign and some candles that are still managing to stay alive despite this pouring rain one sign over there that says hate has no home here written in english and spanish and arabic so robert bowers a man that we don't know much about but it is reported that he was someone that frequented websites favored by white nationalists and which he went on regularly making many anti semitic remarks railing against a local immigrant jewish organization that brought immigrants to the united states and helped them resettle here in the pittsburgh area he was known to highlight that organization and say that they were bringing people in here that would kill
1:54 pm
americans so this is a man that it seems had a great deal of hatred for the jewish people this is a man who carried out a heinous attack on what was essentially a birth naming ceremony a bris in the jewish faith and this is a community that is in deep mourning right now because it's a very small community one of the oldest jewish communities in the united states everybody simply knows everybody else here the victims have not yet been named we are expecting that to happen on sunday and of course the issue of hate and the divisive issue of gun control plays in does it not into the debates the political debates that are happening now in the lead up to midterm elections and this incident is not going to be ignored by politicians across the board. i don't think it's going to be ignored but it's not unfortunately anything new if i think about the the much shootings i've covered over the past couple of years myself last vegas of the pulse nightclub marjorie stoneman douglas high school charleston in which nine african-american worshipers were gunned down by
1:55 pm
a white supremacist it's not new unfortunately i think if it does anything at all it will galvanize people on both the left on the right to turn out to vote on november the six for those all important midterm elections i think if people are in favor of gun control this event unfortunately will not change their minds but as i said i think it will galvanize those on the left and the right of course people on the left i've already been blaming president trump for the kind of rhetoric that he's been talking about over the last couple of years since he became president people on the right i think will stand by gun control they always have if it's not going to change after sandy hook if it doesn't change after marjorie stoneman douglas high school in which seventeen people were killed it certainly isn't going to change now but i think that certainly i voted early a few days ago and i've never seen the polls as busy i think there is a real force when issues like this come to the fore the just galvanizes people to get out and vote for these midterm elections because people have such strongly held beliefs but once again this is
1:56 pm
a nation extremely divided and the events of saturday morning show that in horrific detail indeed it will of course come back to have more updates through the day for the moment in pittsburgh thank you. so the arabia's public prosecutor is due to arrive in turkey later on sunday to discuss the killing of jamal khashoggi turkish prosecutors want the extradition of eighteen suspects but its foreign minister has rejected the request it all comes at a time of mounting european pressure on saudi arabia fischer reports from istanbul . we came to talk syria but the jamal khashoggi case was never far from the surface as the four european leaders gathered after their istanbul meeting turkey's president again demanded those responsible for his killing should face trial in his country. this crime took place in istanbul if saudi arabia is not going to put
1:57 pm
these people on trial the turkish judiciary can do that here in istanbul and through our ministry of justice jamal khashoggi disappeared after visiting the saudi consulate in istanbul earlier this month initially the saudis denied he'd left the building but under growing international pressure the admitted he had killed the writer and u.s. president in what he described as a fight gone wrong european leaders insist sodhi arabia faces a coordinated sanctions campaign when the results of all the investigations are known and. once we know who is behind the stage and what the links are we will strive to have a joint european reaction to show we act from a common basis of values it plays on it. for me things a clear firstly some of the facts have been established we must fully investigate a nation with these facts and who's responsible sanctions must be taken on this basis and the sanctions must be coherent and complete and be extremely concrete and
1:58 pm
proportional it would depend on the facts to say stablished and the sanctions will be taken at a european level as we usually do so that there is true coordination. the chief saudi prosecutor will arrive in istanbul in the coming hours it's thought he'll outline for the turkish authorities the case against eighteen saudis comely being held there in connection with the can show killing but he's also expected to face pressure to extradite them here to turkey where the offense took place earlier so he's foreign minister ruled out any extradition on the issue of extradition of the individuals of saudi nationals to detained and sundry because investigation is had here and they will be prosecuted internally at the same conference the u.s. defense secretary said because should be killing undermine security across the region failure of any one nation to adhere to international norms and the rule of law undermine regional stability at a time when it is needed most turkey is growing frustration with saudi arabia
1:59 pm
despite public commitments to help any investigation we still don't know where jamal khashoggi body is and who was the mystery local cooperator as the saudis described him who helped dispose of the body and does he really exist all questions the saudi prosecutor will have to answer when he sits stone face to face with his turkish counterpart alan fischer al jazeera. as our correspondent live for us in istanbul let's just begin with this war of words certainly between the saudis and turks over this extradition issue it seems that both are very entrenched in their positions. they are and the turkish government insists those should be eighteen suspects should be extradited to the to be tried and this i think we should this is going to be one of the issues topping the agenda of the meeting between the sandy general prosecutor has
2:00 pm
a whole arrives in his tumble today and he will discuss that particular issue with the turkish counterpart we know that the saudis are insisting that the not going to hand over the eighteen suspects to the turkish government but this is something which is definitely going to be doing debate between the two of fish was also the turkish government would like to get more clarity from the saudi government and saudi jumper security about the eighteen suspects and exactly what happened behind me. in the consulate and the circumstances that led to the killing of zometa hostility the turkish authorities also say that they would like to know where the body of the metal has shifted and i think unless those questions are answered we're going to further see more tension building up between the saudi government and the turkish government in team in terms of the sort of the slow leak of information that turkey has wielded it has really put.
