will be treated like terrorists we're going peacefully to get a chance to work in the us the only thing we want is to work to take our families forward to get a better life because in honduras you can't get anything you can never get ahead no matter how hard you work there's nothing in honduras president trump let us pass we're going peacefully we're not aggressive i was there as john holeman joined a family which is part of the caravans look at the challenges they're facing on the journey. when alexander starts his day's journey at three am he's not even awake his system maria is and every step is a small tool it's not just legs a little used to walking a marathon every day she's developed to call. them or have whether it's because we're sleeping rough the winds get to her that's why she's sick this is a day in the life that the re is a lie a family durance travelling in a caravan trying to reach the us today's route forty kilometers to the mexican town

of weeks they've left early to avoid the midday sun but dad alvin a struggling tool can push the stroller in a dorm break he explains why. this is that this is the leg it's bad it's this one with paul here it's been seven months mum elin has sophie's eight months pregnant but she didn't want to have her baby back code that meant it that out alone he would have suffered like the other children there born into poverty after a four hour was she struggling then the family gets a break a ride from a passing truck it revives the flagging children. it's set some down before a migration checkpoint one of several in the south from its commercial without papers their only hope to get through is by sheer force of numbers they have to wait for the others at least erling compressed two hours later the caravan catches up and passes together the type tix worked but is mid day approaches the race

allies have other problems no food. no spare clothes a man pulls up out of nowhere and helps with the first two and then the third. becomes he said she makes consent been divided over the caravan but today help is ever present this lady simply sweeps up the family and pays the bus tickets just in time at the end of their strength. and it makes you wonder what's going to happen to them i just had to help when i saw the baby they finally made it two weeks here they can rest but there's no shelter so that we just have these blankets for the children don't sleep on the pier pavement as the rain fools they try and work out their next move so everyone is just settling down now after what's been an exhausting day but they've still got about two thousand kilometers to get to the buddha and that they cover right that's going to take them at least a month and

a half but first there's a lie a raise family has to try and get through the noise their own home and now does it or weeks. evelyn magill is president of the humanitarian organization project hope three sixty she says that president trump is using the plight of migrants to run a political support ahead of the midterm elections. these are human beings i mean a lot of these people are families that are coming together and so they're fleeing because there's the this debilitation of their country i mean from a social economic perspective the violence is rising and people do just one better future for their children a better future for themselves and their families and so you know it's just the political unrest you know the economic instability those are the things that are really driving these people i think that they're very much aware that the president of the united states does not welcome them here but i think that they have probably

using this to their advantage in the sense that he has been using this to mislead people during this midterm election and so he has given them a great platform the media and so yeah i think that they do know the opposition that they face but they also know that there is a greater america that does embrace them and does welcome them we're talking about over seventy five hundred people that are trying to cross the border for a better tomorrow and so we're not sure what's going to happen we do know that mexico is open to helping the families united states obviously doesn't have the same. attitude or heard the same grace for the families and really the united states but you know this is a you know the president of the united states who is really using this you know to make sure that he rallies up his voters in this midterm election for whatever reason you know he's using these scare tactics to make sure that people come out and vote in favor of his politics which we know of course are inhumane i mean there

are literally against what america stands for and so you know it is going to be a problem that we're going to be seen for some time and you know we're going to be watching but yeah i you know they they will you know there will be on our radar for quite some time this is you know this is a huge undertaking. talking about seventy five hundred people a hundred miles away from our borders there's a lot that's going to happen a weather update next here on out zero then. there's no question it gives the right thing to do walking out on google thousands of employees around the world protest of a sexual harassment and workplace inequality. and other satellites it is a good two it reveals

economic embargo of cuba has been overwhelmingly condemned by the united nations the cuban sponsored resolution to the u.n. general assembly passed one hundred eighty nine to two with no abstentions cuba's foreign minister says the u.s. embargo was held back as country for generations. to do you there is a flagrant massive and systematic violation of the human rights of cuban men and women and it has been and still is the main obstacle to the well being and prosperity of several generations. they have been abandoned by the united nations and by most of the world's governments but the cuban people are not alone today the united states of america stands with them the people of cuba are neighbors and are friends and they are fellow children of god u.s. president tunnel trump has announced new sanctions on venezuela and has warned of more measures against cuba and nicaragua is a ministration has branded them

fighters the troika of tyranny in this hemisphere cuba venezuela and nicaragua has finally met its match newsweek deputy global that it's a robot valencia says that sanctions a time to coincide with the u.s. midterm elections. it is interesting that these sanctions come at a time where republicans are having some each shoe garnering political support especially in florida i don't think there's any coincidence that john bolton gave this speech in florida where you see shoe democratic candidates one for the governor seat and for senate actually going neck and neck with the republicans in that state not to mention florida is a battleground state and it's a very important location when it comes to elections both for the midterms next week and also for twenty twenty for the upcoming presidential elections it's an

interesting relationship between the united states and the crowd were because while trump has had a really nice tough stance on the car what the president of nicaragua then you know take a has been cooperating with. the entity that is in charge of deporting you know undocumented immigrants in the united states so they have been they sign up and then agreement a couple you know a couple of months ago where they will be bringing in the crime going nationals into the country not to mention the t.p.s. the temporary protected status for many central americans is about to expire. sri lanka's president has climbed down on his decision to suspend parliament calling for a meeting of politicians next week the sacking of prime minister an ill wickramasinghe and his replacement of the former leader mahinda rajapaksa has caused a political crisis with critics warning that it's an unconstitutional move that could lead to a bloodbath but speaking to al-jazeera rajapaksa defended his appointment as

legitimate but smith reports from colombo. he has all the trappings of prime minister including access to the office but the new prime minister mahinda rajapaksa is acting unconstitutionally his critics say because he was appointed by president by three policy we say no and not elected by the embers of parliament one of mr rajapaksa how useless i see you as your of a loved one legitimately think serbia says it's the institution of this budget the argument is that parliament should be deciding who's the prime minister not the normal norm. read the institution of the new framework and so your immediate one search for a now you're assuming the prime minister's position i feel lucky to be ignored or both of these the rajapaksa needs the backing of one hundred thirteen m.p.'s to solidify his return to power but the president suspended parliament some suspect he did that to give rajapaksa time to get enough support how will you get enough

support from parliament how would you get the m.p.'s we have got to understand that the short and so why the delay in recalling parliament what are we hanging on for norm because we want to. get ready for the i did rajapakse that was at the prime minister's office to meet academics telling them there's no crisis as far as he's concerned it certainly is a crisis but the ousted prime minister ronnell wickramasinghe or he's refusing to leave the official residence of the pm he says he remains prime minister because the power to sack him was stripped from the president two years ago by an amendment to the constitution the whole structure of government in the country is still very strong the executive. and the presumption is that the presidency is the strongest office even though the nineteenth amendment has made changes to that and therefore what the presidency has to say go rajapaksa serve two

terms as president defeated thomas separatists in a twenty six year long civil war but was accused of human rights abuses in the process his family and in a circle is under investigation for corruption and you looking forward to your new position so you're looking forward to being prime minister really much like a hard man rajapaksa is presenting an image of business as usual but we've run away from a single still claiming to be the legitimate prime minister things are far from usual parliament will though now get to have the final say it seems when it's soon recalled and m.p.'s get to vote bernard smith al-jazeera colombo un agencies say that nearly five hundred million people in the asia pacific region of going hungry despite rapid economic growth they estimate that more than half of the world's mild nourished children live in the region the report blames poverty and inadequate access to clean water or sanitation it says the better urban planning is
