and our partners are already feeding eight million people in yemen without urgent action up to fourteen million people fully whole the population could be out of it risk in the coming months to avert imminent catastrophe several steps are urgently required first violence must stop everywhere with an immediate halt around critical infrastructure and densely populated areas and they welcomed a strong constructive engagement from many member states in recent days joining their voices to the un's repeated appeals for the suspension of those the abilities and supporting my special envoys efforts yes president donald trump has backtracked from his earlier threat that troops would shoot migrants at the mexican border if they threw rocks he made the comments on thursday referring to essential american people making their way in a caravan attempting to reach the u.s.
9:07 am
without documents but now he's backed off from that threat. what they did to the mexican military is a disgrace they had him with rocks some were very seriously injured and they were throwing rocks in their face they do that with us they're going to be arrested there's going to be a problem i didn't say shoot i didn't say here but they do that when. they're going to be arrested for a long time well immigration and the economy are major issues in the midterm elections four days away it's seen as a referendum of trump's presidency and spending the last weekend before the poll campaigning for republican candidates in six states americans with voting to elect members of the house of representatives some senators and governors republicans county control both houses of congress. for the president barack obama's olds a busy on the campaign trail having to boost the democrat vote he told a crowd in the swing state of florida that the future of the country is at stake.
9:08 am
america is at a crossroads. that health care of millions is on the belt. making sure working families get a fair shake is on the belt. but maybe most of all the character of our country is on the ballot and the all the open in the closing weeks of this election we have seen repeated attempts to divide us. with rhetoric designed to make us angry and make us fearful. mike hanna has the latest now from washington d.c. . well the democrats have brought out their heavyweight campaign our former president barack obama he's been going from campaign rally to campaign rally the basic message he's giving is that the nature of the country has changed very seldom mentioning president trump by name he does make very clear though that this
9:09 am
character change within the country is due to the failed policies of the trumpet ministration he's been joined by vice president joe biden at a number of campaign rallies but conspicuous by their absence former president bill clinton and former presidential candidate hillary clinton they've taken no part in the campaign rallies at this particular point president trump to an absolute flurry of campaign rallies in these last few days his message has been on look all the time immigration the threat of immigration the fear of immigration characterizing the so-called caravans coming across mexico as an invasion sending soldiers to the border in what his critics contend is sheer fear tactics calculated to drive republicans to the polls a very key detail some one third of the electorate are self described independents these are the people that the democrats will be turning to hoping that they can be
9:10 am
galvanized by the trump presidency to go to the polls president trump is not a candidate but certainly this is an election is a rift referendum about the president himself eyesores says it was behind the attack that killed seven coptic christians in egypt a gunman fired at two buses on their way to a ministry in the city of minea two hundred sixty kilometers south of cairo six of the dead were from the same family president of the fatah and sisi is promising to punish those responsible i saw him on several attacks on coptic christians in the last few years. dozens of palestinians have been injured during protests along the border with israel at least two hundred ten people have been killed since the weekly friday demonstrations began in late march gazans are demanding the right to return to ancestral lands and the lifting of israel's told their blockade on the strip are a force that has more from the gaza israel border. well there was word on thursday here in gaza after the intervention of an egyptian delegation they met with the
9:11 am
committee that runs these protests there was word that they were going to be scaled down in size and turn and if i just get out of the way i think we can see that that is pretty much come true this is a smaller in number protests than we've seen in recent weeks also as promised it seems there are no incendiary devices kites and balloons being lit and launched towards israel a very small number of tires being set on fire to try to provide screening and in response the israelis are using the prevailing winds which are coming from israel this friday and using a pretty large use of tear gas in terms of the proportion of people it is being used against so largely people are being kept back from the fence what's interesting are the politics which are underlying all of this this addiction delegation which is still in town and has visited the process sites at a different site are up slightly north of here along the border that's part of a wider scale effort both to try to reconcile the palestinian factions fatah which
9:12 am
dominates the palestinian authority in the occupied west bank hamas which controls gaza trying to broker some kind of longer term truce between the israelis and hamas there is talk of israel facilitating potentially fifteen million dollars a month of funding for non fighting staff members or people who work for hamas here in the gaza strip they're already facilitating the qatari fuel which is drastically changed the electricity supply in the strip as well and so after weeks where we've seen things get very close to a major military escalation on a number of occasions there is a different atmosphere this weekend here in gaza and we're seeing it not least in the scale of this protest. lanka's ousted prime minister has told down to zero democracy in the country's under threat ronald wickramasinghe is refusing to quit after being fired last week by the president he's been replaced with manda

rajapaksa two time president is accused of a power grab but it smith reports from colombo for the past week run a wickramasinghe has refused to leave the prime minister's official residence here in the capital it's become a symbol of legitimacy he tells me after being fired by the president in what critics are calling a constitutional two day the third of a london democracy in the last presidential election parliament religion we came forward on the basis that parliament is supreme that the president must act according to the. when they are nineteen the amendment to the constitution was drafted on that basis now what has happened is the president is trying to override the power of the parliament present my three policy say in a swore in mahinda rajapakse as the new prime minister last friday rajapaksa was president for two terms and scrapped term limits and twenty fourteen to try and stay in power but then lost the election he called a year later rajapaksa says he's
9:14 am
got enough support in parliament to confirm his position but m.p.'s can't quote because presidents are saying or a suspended parliament why the delay you think in recalling palm and why they haven't the numbers where the number because parliament initially thought. we have the numbers here it. with we hear a lot of talk about persuading m.p.'s to join rajapaksa side how might they be persuaded what are you what are you hearing about what's going on with our funding member and their ministry sheeps and sometimes money the speaker has warned of the risk of a bloodbath if this is allowed to continue do you share those views of the speaker that there can be an appeal because people are getting the two granted by the we voted for parliament democracy we why we asked for a different set up and all of sudden we find the even worse then two thousand forty

9:16 am
the proposal was to create another marine park in antarctica this time five times the size of germany an area of pristine ocean protected from fishing mining drilling almost all human activity. the weather l c is an icy wilderness and one of the world's last marine protection would have kept it that way but in hobart delegations from twenty four different countries with an interest and i talked to as well as the european union which led the pot proposal needed to reach consensus where exactly where the parks boundaries be would any fishing be allowed how reliable is the science supporting the need for complete protection how many decades with the protection lost for they couldn't agree after two weeks of talking behind closed doors the head of india's delegation revealed no consensus had been reached. and.
9:17 am
the standing is not. unfortunately standing is not that much in twenty six the same delegates in the same building were able to reach agreement to create another marine park and talk to. that one covering the road was supposed to create momentum for more but an attempt to create one in east antarctica last year failed the failure on friday to create one in the wood del see the sense of gloom for conservationists and of course extremely disappointed that this meeting was unable to reach consensus it's been a campaign that's really engage people and people want to see and talk to give or take it and to see it failing at this meeting is of course very disappointing delegates meet in hobart every year there will be more chances to create marine parks in future for every year that passes means what is ultimately protected will be a little less. in the end i'm told it was a disagreement about the quality of the science behind the need for a new marine protected area that led to the lack of consensus with two countries
9:18 am
china and russia refusing to sign up now in the past those same two countries have come around to proposals that in previous years they'd opposed but only after those have been signed off by the highest level of politics in those countries the president the hope sorry if that in time the same can happen with this proposal and to toss out is there australia. time for a quick check of the headlines here this hour turkey's president says he's convinced the orders to kill jamal khashoggi came from the highest levels of the saudi government. a turkish investigator has told al-jazeera the saudi journalist body was dismembered and dissolved in acid after he was killed a month ago on october the second one fishes more from istanbul we always knew the turkish government knew more than they were making public know senior figures are
9:19 am
telling is that they think that the so-called hit team the fifteen people who arrived from saudi arabia just hours before jamal khashoggi appointment had done this before which explains the professional nature of the operation that he could kill someone so quickly and essentially dispose of his remains so that even four weeks on turkish investigators still found no trace of jamal khashoggi body the trumpet ministrations re-imposing sanctions on iran that were lifted in the twenty fifth day nuclear deal the measures will begin on monday the u.k. russia france china germany and the european union have all condemned the mood's eight countries will be allowed exemptions from sanctions should they do business with tehran. blasphemy protests in pakistan are been called off after an agreement between the government and conservative muslim groups that began on wednesday when the supreme court overturned the death sentence of a christian woman accused of insulting islam. yes president donald trump has
9:20 am
backtracked from his earlier threat that troops would shoot migrants at the mexican border if they threw rocks he made the comments on thursday referring to central american people making their way in a caravan attempting to reach the u.s. without documents but now he's backed off from that threat. what they did to the mexican military is that straight they end up with rocks very seriously injured and they were throwing rocks in their face they do that with us they're going to be arrested they've got to be brought up i don't say here i didn't say here but they do that when. they're going to be arrested for a long time sri lanka's ousted prime minister has told down to zero democracy in the country is under threat rana wickramasinghe is refusing to quit after being fired last week by president makes the policy was santa has been replaced with mahinda rajapaksa a two time president is accused of a power grab. ok those are the headlines the news continues.
9:21 am
9:22 am
hello and welcome from turkey today inside story coming to you from istanbul exactly a month ago today. the saudi journalist walked into that building behind me to collect some paperwork he was just about to get remarried instead of getting a stamp on a form and walking out of the building to meet his fiance the teacher instead he was tortured and brutally killed there are three questions to which we have yet to receive. who ordered the killing who carried out the killing and on top of that where is the body of jamal khashoggi there are two other questions as well is there a broader issue here is there a broader malays across the region and saudi arabia crossed a rubicon has it done something that it thought it could get away with which it may not get away with we'll get to our guests in just a moment first charles stratford sets up our discussion today. oct the second four fifty seven am local time in istanbul security camera footage shows
9:23 am
him and his fiance hoodies each angus' entering the building of his recently acquired istanbul apartment hours later the couple arrive at the saudi consulate for her shows his appointment it's thirteen thirteen they stand at the barricades close by the shows he gives her his two mobile phones they have agreed that if he doesn't reappear they should call the turkish government official who is a trusted friend. in an interview with turkish t.v. had he just said that although they were both nervous about her shows his appointment he had told her the consulate staff had treated him well during a previous visit on september the twenty eighth to does this imply a trap had been sent to virtual gave to. the. jamal a smiling when he came out of the consulate he was very happy with the welcome he received he said the consulate staff and come to introduce themselves and offered
9:24 am
him something to drink he was told that the documents he wanted would be ready in a few days' time at thirteen fourteen he enters the consulate never to be seen again for a quarter hours later at seventeen thirty three can be seen anxiously waiting outside she had already made the call but it's too late turkish and saudi investigators now agree that her show by this time was already dead more than one let me up almost a month as i'm making these calls i'm thinking to myself am i too late is something happening could i prevent something from happening to me. according to friends jamal khashoggi didn't like being called a saudi dissident in an interview which he gave to a canadian t.v. channel in june he explains why he fled to america i list because once you got to know the space i had was getting no work and began to feel the pressure so i just
9:25 am
decided to leave before it used to do it and just a couple of months that i had a lift feelings of mind where many people i know. saw a sense goodness that i did that otherwise they were pleased i would have been told at my home by no bun from trouble at least i missed it and that's the thing i want in in my entire minute i am sixty years old and they want to enjoy life and they want to be thirty just be quoted make and it seems your shows he was killed in this building for trying to do exactly that speaking freely for the good of a country that he said he loved his murder by men some of whom are described as being either close to or even parts all saudis in the circle leadership shows just how dangerous that endeavor was tall strafford the inside story stumble.
9:26 am
ok let's get going with our conversation here today on inside story let's introduce our three guests today they are. the. english language newspaper here in istanbul for she is an international strategist and see. the university let's just come to you first. will we ever see the body or what's left of it the body of jamal khashoggi well if we if we look at. what has been said by a turkish official washington post i'm afraid it's not likely that we're going to see mr g.'s body because one of the sources told the washington post that it was actually melted and so if that's the case or if the body has been dismembered and the spores in a in a way that we are not able to put it together you know i'm afraid it's going to be very unlikely that we're going to see the body fortunately. but if it is
9:27 am
otherwise i think that's an question that riyadh needs to answer at this point because the prosecutors have invested have dig into the incident and investigation has been you know weighed concluded by the turkish prosecutor saying that the body was dismembered and disposed so we don't know where the body is at the moment if riyadh is not going to tell us i'm afraid it's a question that at least from the turkish perspective it is very hard to answer at this point so one month today he walked into that building the consensus is built over the last months saying that this probably goes all the way to the crown prince mohammed bin that's the consensus that's the assumption i'm using the words very very delicately here because new on everything in the story in your mind is the consensus right. well it seems that starting from two thousand and seventeen
9:28 am
prince all money was interacted into the you know the top of the poverty of the caribbean governments so he is you know kind of restructuring the national security. priorities and so subvert so it is unlikely that we think so somebody else so if this is kind of an operation it is ill. ill organized and ill execute it and hopefully that our nation's security agency as song old post apartment has you know bring in that from the darkness into our very. own knowledge but at the end of the day it doesn't necessarily have to be prince or somebody else we should be focusing on what type of a state can do this kind of thing bridging human rights bridging all the
9:29 am
international law ridging be there we end of quote mansion and still cold state it is absolutely impossible i mean we can i do call it as a cause a state or a state with no institutional capacity or no rule of law that's all. there identified one to one of the key elements of this that internationally presidents and prime ministers diplomats have to carry on addressing and it's it's a function of the way that president the one for example is a phenomena of the well experienced politician who's going up against a saudi crown prince he's got a colossal lack of experience because he's never been a politician he's never been a successful businessman he's always just been a prince. well yeah there's a difference of experience
9:30 am
a gap which doesn't work very well for saudi arabia obviously. but i think what sell was just said about the institutional capacity also plays its part here turkey is managing this crisis this international crisis wary well in a way that it's for visits from turning into a bilateral issue so it's not like pitching prince oman against the turkish president apply pressure them on what turkey is actually doing very successfully in that i should mention is internationalizing the issue multilateral izing the issue and this corner saudi arabia and whoever is responsible within the saudis system for this hideous murder of. in a very bad position to say the least so how does mr erdogan keep calm internationalizing it he spent two weeks leaking information basically somebody to
9:31 am
probe predominantly via the daily stop a newspaper these language version but it is something he needs to keep it going he's delivered those two very strong speeches he was very presidential he clearly signaled i will work with king solomon i cannot work with the crown prince but how does he keep it in the headlines well i think it's. you know his own character and bill it see too many to process but own couple of that it's also the ability an institutional kept us to build the foreign political my set of turkey i mean. that we are running into a very different period of time so the. structure is absolutely changing and this is the same international system that we used to have let's say to the case sick-o. the great bells is. changing the international institutional kept us the is
9:32 am
decaying unfortunately so in a very. hectic period of time and the very troubled some region like middle east cannot to live aid another problem all topple that you know mr hard ons. i think and i believe it's my own perception that he is trying to keep the balance is in the way that it won't be creating another turmoil or another disaster within the region ok another term a lot of exhausted from the region that's interesting isn't it because so much of the death of one man feeds into the of the big issues in this region mike pompei of the u.s. secretary of state in the past twenty four hours talking about sanctions surely not going to happen this side of the u.s. midterm elections and nobody's giving us a timeframe for about. that is i think one of the one of the key results emerging from
9:33 am
a very close and intense intimate relationship between crown prince miss prince mohammed bin salon and washington so that's one thing on the one side but i just want to elaborate with one with what seles said with regards to the regional turmoil and the implications behind that i mean this situation we are saying that mr though on it has been able to keep it at an international level but this is not an incident a simple criminal incident that happened in turkey this has this by it's nature it's an international issue so the fact that he's a columnist at washington post makes it an international issue the fact that he's a saudi citizen. and killed saudi citizen in a saudi consulate makes and makes it an international issue this is you know it has very small details that could affect turkey saudi arabia saudi arabia relations
9:34 am
directly so mr are the one wants to move away from that this is not an issue. you know in a way that just has happened between turkey and saudi arabia this is a this is an incident has regional dimension. because i mean we know is saudi arabia's. unsaid agenda with regards to turkish influence in the region and also it has an international mission because this is a figure that was a critical who was a critical critical critical to riyadh and who was a dissident journalist and so it has an international dimension in the sense that there is more to say and values that are crashed by this incident so it's not a one dimensional issue and i mean it's very hard to see with regard to your question it's very hard to see a quick outcome with regards to washington. sanctions on mohamed bin someone i mean i think the fact that he makes a lot of mistakes makes him
9:35 am
a better figure for washington that washington can put its support behind. as far as mr erdogan is concerned he can carry on exerting pressure however he will he's clearly highly skilled at court he's dumb since a month ago since the events of one month ago but he can't go so far surely he fractures the relationship. with riyadh because then nothing happens. that is correct absolutely and turkey is definite there verify that while trying to eliminate mom had been so mun that is why president is on this trying to keep king solomon close and keep the doors of dialogue open in that regard. because turkish decision makers and mr added on is pretty much everywhere of the fact that the regional turmoil that we have been going through. in the middle east
9:36 am
. requires an necessitates cooperation in man way or the other from. an area of party no one country is able to so say this syrian civil war no one party is available to dissolve the tensions in the gulf no one party is able to so what would come after the speeding up of the iranian sanctions regime by the united states and turkey and saudi arabia despite at all on many of the issues that concerns the region are two heavyweights in this region and any way any leverage that turkey or saudi arabia can provide to their agendas from the other would largely enhance their positions that is why this becomes a game of strategy and edging on the side also. jamal is fiance to teach a just in the past twelve hours or so writing
9:37 am
a very strong article one of the english language newspapers out of europe saying there must not be a cover up but this kind of plays to the general donald trump's son in law's reaction to it saying account of the precise quote but he basically said we need a truth we can work with and when he said that ten days two weeks ago people were outraged but everyone is moving to that position where they have a truce that they can work with. but it might not actually be the truth of what happened because they have to deal with the truth of what happened and some imaginable and the consequences would have to be so much harder fortunately these says the as my professor of middle with says that international relations has a cold face right this is you know realities in poland takes and also the truth sometimes it's called lights to each other. you know let's remember a little bit about hall does us saw the relationship because there chook countries
9:38 am
exactly the opposite to each other the regimes are completely different the values are completely different democratic values doesn't ever existed in. how come this two countries come together and create a strategy get lines in the middle east. in one part united states have the poverty of the dollar and in one part there be a have the poverty of the energy so this to poverty actually lead to no itself time to time in order to settle down the relationship either in the region or in the global scale. maybe we don't touch too much but we are very old the fact that china is very silent about this case for example i mean in the event that u.s. put some sanctions in the event that until the agent comes from the area then the oil prices and this energy business will go into a true loyal and it's the next run the saudis would like to prove further maybe to
9:39 am
price oil not in u.s. dollars but in the yuan because there is the market up or running and growing day by day only last year four months after the shanghai oil market has grown at least seven person or so in the global crude turnover this is a huge thing you know the it unfortunately. vagrants alert is not about the fact that everybody was playing the game on the moral grounds because there are interests and there are strategies and also the design says will create a final decision i guess. what has just said because master of english language my dear aren't nor coming out of washington but we should all remember. when he wrote that there was no virtue like necessity and this is the
9:40 am
burning oil behind all of this it's the smoke that is why. this workable truth rhetoric gets out that. the consciousness of the people who are private or even watching this case revolting to the fact that we need the truth that we could work with. it is actually the name of the game in many capitals around the world nowadays and we are seeing signs of that actually with what is happening in denmark with iranian operatives being charged with trying to eliminate some iranian dissidents in denmark so it's just like saudis are doing that and iranians are doing that so the not harm the agenda. the bigger political agenda ok you're talking about agenda you're talking about interests and strategies management is the strategy or the agenda for mr eartha one that he wants to
9:41 am
reposition turkey to be the regional superpower i don't think this discourse about our go on utilizing this case to to reaffirm it's his regional influence is very it's very it's a very weak narrative i think because i was scared was approach to this case is basically just seeking the truth at this moment it is in a way we can see that you know this will shift. alan says but this is not because i don't is using this case to reach that point this is because riyadh has put itself in a position after spending billions of millions of dollars to for their for their image of repairing the region and globally the fact that they have to really and in a brutal way executed at dissident journalist so this is not about whether i do one will use this case to to make his position more concrete in the region but this is about the fact that some of the areas. influence which president on has also
9:42 am
praised previously in for example in the case we're going to cut to the crisis with france our he said you know so here is the older brother in this region but this is a case where saudi arabia's role is diminishing. because our dawns discharge on approach to this situation is simply seeking the answers that will shed light to dismiss this brutal murder so solve we being a little bit naive if we want to assume that no one is trying to get a position of definitive truth and therefore questions of moral ambiguity have to be abandoned perhaps but he maybe he needs to get to another acceptable from now i mean turkey demonstrated a way that is possible in the international system which is you can do and moral polis say and also make you'll regional influence accordingly at the same time you know moral it's
9:43 am
a national interest doesn't have to be called like every so i'm right so this is the state traditions tradition of but time to time you know we got or turkey got problems to express what they're doing exactly but in this case i mean this is not about turkish position or turkey's searching a person ford it's roots this is about what what is going to be the us foreign policy from now on in the middle east and if. the prince song on with all this you know absolutely unbelievably you know harsh and wilder position in fulsome making room going to be survived in the in the future i think. this is much more important for me i guess that change cannot become from the political it's that change should become from top to bottom to let's just boil that down you've got three very very
9:44 am
powerful individuals here comes the one donald trump people talking about and they're mccrum friends out of those three men those three people which one is the most politically dextrous here. well definitely gone f. and mr dunn is the more able guy in running such a crisis though there are different capacities year when it. comes to political dexterity mr add on is definitely the one with the political acumen when it comes to pass the and influence i would say that mr trump has the most. and when it comes to the role of energy and regional back doors along with been sell month seems to be yearning for morning fluence but amongst those three i would say that the moment in selma as that is the least apt
9:45 am

9:53 am
al-jazeera correspondent stench of absolutely awful. in some ways alaska is nothing less than a promises. in the summer the constant sun might suppose so beautiful it seems a crime to look away. from a distance the tundra looks like a muted patchwork. only when you bend towards the ground to check if the berries have ripe and if the mushrooms have come up after rain can you see the spongy cosmos it contains. in the rivers salmon move powerful leaf like
9:54 am
together. and in the times between night and day when even the salmon seem to still we were taken by the raw force of a landscape stripped of its summer in a style to. my name is america. africa tired after america and. and my mom's side of the family is native boston. i'm an online journalist for al-jazeera and. my mom's village has one of the last subsistence salmon cultures in the world but their way of life could disappear. for an hour persists and i feel really grateful to be a part of it. if
9:55 am
people ask i usually same from qatar or the middle east. my dad says that when he was growing up the lifestyle in qatar was very simple and sometimes i wish i could have seen what that world looked like. the peace of life a slow everybody knew everybody. and there's just one place to get your vegetables and fish down at the coastline. oil and gas completely transformed the country. and even my lifetime the city has dramatically changed. there's this glittering skyline that developed almost overnight and we have all this wealth now . people are usually shocked when i tell them my mom is from alaska my dad is from qatar and they always always ask how they met but the story is pretty boring really they just met in university and at the time they still had to see if they can make
9:56 am
things worse this is not fun. coming to town half of the first time i was excited to come and see the country because. you know it's just someplace new and different you're a little scant. if someone is under want to adopt a situation where you think this is going to be home for you know i'm i think i'm almost the thought of wants to learn. about different cultures and religions to come the only adult away from moscow all the way through the fault of the war there never been here and just lived on promises here taking the woman both of them. what did you promise the parents of the fairness to bring her back of do you know this. but. picking two of them for the first time i think i was probably. pretty nervous about what he would think those are going to experience
9:57 am
even landing out there or to know what can gravel on the way you can see this huge like cross shaped runway and then you're looking all around the country to be like what's here where is it because i mean he was like from a urban situation and stuff and i just thought man he's probably going to think that he's coming to absolutely nowhere you know but. it all worked out in the end he adapted to village life easily. but you have to survive you have to do it yourself you have to go catch your own food you have to build your own children and i think the altar was around them isn't for me i know what part so it's coulter. coulter and i often called her did you want your kids to know if your cultural hoses are doing a good falls to things and of course that's paris ruined the best hope of both we just wanted you to be able to experience everything things that you didn't have
9:58 am
a chance to experience here i mean formal education obviously went to school here and then through the family you learned all the traditions you know of even ramadan and all the you know all the family celebrations whereas yes in alaska you have got like twenty one hours of daylight you were free to roam around and do things that you wanted to do you. feel more american here and that more air in the us. i think that's just. the nature being half of one thing half of the others yes or no outside of things.
9:59 am
since i was born we've tried to fly back each year to help my grandma with the salmon run i just remember being so excited to go to every software as an adult i forget how much i miss it until i'm there the only way to get to the village is on a ninety day or plane flying forty five minutes out from anchorage which is the nearest city. i mean good family. the community that my grandmother lives in is actually two villages one is called early on and one is called the hill and the hill in is at the mouth of the river that feeds into lake. lake is part of this broader water system that produces forty six percent of the world's sockeye salmon. salmon return to the
10:00 am
place that they're hatched so they're hatched they go out into the ocean and stay there for a few years and then fight their way back to lay their own eggs. we probably should come to the back door can we just walk through oh yes because i want to see. my gramma around about a breakfast here for at least twenty years pretty much the same as you remember and your member when your kids planted all those trees they got so big you can see the lake hardly disappear so scared of this of like run. yeah isn't this the room where we found the interns and. yes. miss america here down here the memories here are so wonderful. it's going to stay here in this place was so formative for me even though i only came here during the
10:01 am
summers this is where i sort of envision a lot of my childhood. you've got to explore it you've got to make mistakes you get independence. i come back here in the summer right this is a summer home for me. but when this is a home home for people there's just such a fundamental attachment to the land. for many including my family fishing and hunting is vital to survival here. i think it's hard for people to envision places that do do this out of necessity so it's not just a cultural thing or a traditional thing people need to do this because finding out. groceries their supplies is so expensive. people need salmon and other wild foods to have enough protein for the year. while there are people out. so in
10:02 am
smokehouse let's go in. and i help with anything any cutting and getting ready. i don't want you to get i don't think you have another. as a kid i really love the heart of the salmon on the heart comes out it's often still beating so i would take the higher end run around to nearby fishermen and show them the persistence of the it's incredible the current is going against the bears are trying to get fishermen prox nuts and then you find. it on the fish table it's wriggling you kill it and his heart is still beating. so how has processing change versus when you're growing up or before you even have freezers. in the lake city where we just saw the first
10:03 am
before. the put them in like a customer yes we. only ever used of us luke you're going to require the same thing i know but. where to put it is going to . tell you. there's a service companionship around the fish table. men aren't typically around because they commercial fish serve work other seasonal jobs in the summer it's mainly women who it's the i really love. talking or gossiping joking making fun of each other. you know i've never done it because. it's just really fun you feel really supported . you know you do it i think we say doing this because there are so many things that you do to the fish you.
10:04 am
know how to. cook and as a kid i would help empty the gut bucket and hang fish up to dry and canned salmon but now i work at the fish table. even when the weather's bad and your hands are freezing and your back is tired there's nothing more satisfying than doing fish. it's been really cool going to all the different fish tables. and everyone's quite particular and maybe of all snooty about the way they do it's because i think everyone thinks they do their fish the right way. when you have a camera full of water and these heavy chairs it really move and then they start
10:05 am
they don't see the custard crooked. that they did big ups or even fishline if you leave it on here it won't see them. remember that remember you used to do this i remember your mom always taking pancho we travel with cans back home yeah just because it's. there is no matter where you come from. i mean it's just a different life for me four six eight ten twelve fourteen sixteen eighteen ok. time to care and just the knowledge you need to have takes a lifetime to acquire so when you're talking to an elder it's just like opening up an encyclopedia but to call it really good so don't get caught or what are these are these are just are small prints not i use birch to smoke. kind of early in the
10:06 am
spring and let it so don't be so strong or might have been rough on me want to hear how do you start it so that smoking and not a fire i still haven't learned this arts i was teaching you how to play. which was rough for the movement you know. you just feel like such a so they so good. i would die very short about. us me answer. this is ball flies see the eggs to me got a knife to take yeah. so i just smash them yeah and smash i think just a couple more hours. of the songs of official the other day and they kept the fins on because they said that the weight of the top official of the eskimos
10:07 am
and the indians do things differently. and chorus sandy and think we know better but. it's just. the way things are. these two villages are sort of at the interface of two different tribes one is a people in the other. you know. where police then are you know. what percentage of new him is native i gotta say at least nineteen i guess is maybe nine hundred yeah but at least there's just you know maybe ten people here that might not be and what is the population of. about one hundred eighty and right now. we're just kind of having some problems with jobs but we have
10:08 am
a lot of our people here in new healing working and they're working peple right now . is this proposed copper gold and molybdenum mine that would if approved to be located less than twenty miles away from million. it's really valuable they could generate between three hundred and five hundred billion u.s. dollars over its lifetime and provide jobs for the community. but it could also pose serious threats to the ecosystem. if it's pollutants got into the surrounding area they could possibly ruin the salmon run in a way of life that has been around for millennia. to try if we have a contract with pavel they're doing the studies here this summer it's providing jobs for people at short term. and next week might end in august so it's just like everybody wants to work because this is the only place to make the money right now when they're not here it's pretty bleak they want them to be
10:09 am
around want right now the tribe is twelve fish is important to our culture fish it's important for us to you know provide for our family but we still have to work what other way are we going to survive you know we can't pick up our families and move to h.r. or wherever the jobs are and we don't want to. give up people. and support sufficiently. so you think coming up for fifteen years of a fifteen idea keep coming up. it's so beautiful work around it's so many places to go and different style of fish and every place. we've got a lot that. already. there.
10:10 am
will be the last one so funny how fishing can be so important to so many people but the way that it's important and so radically different. there might be people who come up here every single summer for twenty five years not really you know a local name. of the place a huge part of their life. your story i guess thanks very green to talk to me oh you're welcome how long have you been in the sports fishing and hunting industry new young i started in the mid eighty's and i've been doing that pretty much every sentence for years that was the best kept secret there was only a handful of lodges in the area while the word finally got out couldn't be kept secret lodges have gotten so exclusive with the flying. very
10:11 am
personalized high end foods and everything a fishing trip that a premier a lodge an a syria today the nine thousand dollars for a week might have been you know of three or four thousand dollars in the mid eighty's they want the big money people and they get it what's the relationship between. lodges and the local community you know i think historically there was a lot of animosity between locals and that are struggling to make ends meet and then these high and rich lodge owners that come in for four months make a bunch of money. but it's gotten a lot better over the years to try to hire more locals and involve the community more and i've seen it what is the argument that lodge owner will give for not hiring locals because it seems like that would be cheaper than flying an entire stuff than to stop the bloodshed every season i don't know if i'm know it
10:12 am
absolutely makes nothing but i mean they could they can go catch fish for themselves and hunt never thing but it's a whole different thing being a guide for paying us local natives they were raised to survive to be a sports fishing somebody that you've brought in you know what they're doing every minute of the day they're not out drinking or getting in trouble the local person that works here might crashes and break his ankle and can't come to work tomorrow somebody is thing at the lodge isn't going to do that. so since abuse is quite foreign to me having grown up in qatar where drinking is not part of the culture. but it is a familiar story having gone back to alaska year after year and has definitely
10:13 am
affected my family here. i think it's one of those things that can be quite baffling if you don't look at the bigger picture. when there's no job to look forward to is you know. we haven't really heard so much about that drugs but we've heard you know they're here everybody that i know that's work and they have a reason to get up a you know it's making them feel better they're doing something and not just staying home watching t.v. or you know not doing anything that's also the scary thing is having no law enforcement to see here yes what do you do if you need it to i mean well we have would call we have an eight hundred number and he does respond he comes in from myself so many hours away and that's like the next flight the next morning. but we had to respond to a couple homes and we don't go by ourselves. of
10:14 am
work for the social service department. that's called the indian child welfare act . some helping our tribal enroll members that are. having trouble with substance abuse something i don't have a cheaper or so they call us for everything that happens like of somebody who's junk and i'm driving they call us a somebody who's. feiten they call us i mean it doesn't happen that often but when it does you know where they call us first. and majority of the time it's just my sister and i that run off to the hospice what is it like working on
10:15 am
this issue which can be a sensitive and sort of a small community it's very hard time related to everybody here it's like one of the worst jobs in the village because they blame you first because you're the first one to respond. doesn't necessarily need to be at numbers but how. widespread is. the issue in terms of substance abuse in this community. for alcohol abuse that's pretty i like when i was younger i every time i came back oh you know it's time to have a shot of a shot i've been to over for about six years now and that's a whole different world for me. just that people are sent out of their communities for treatment like that must also be difficult right like i said this is a very small community that's come a makes them feel ashamed of themselves that
10:16 am
they had to leave that mandy. thank you. insult career around two million dogs are eaten every year but now animal rights groups want the ancient tradition they cannot the main one used to rest a good career dog or on al-jazeera. a career reporting to the world ruin it here one journalist documents life beyond the headlines. that certain stories can change us in the easiest least when you know you need. to change anyone a unique journey into what it means to be human the things we keep a witness documentary on al-jazeera.

yeah it will go kind of a round told. because time because the spawning area yeah there's that it just happens to have more potential sockeye productivity than the other two drainage is also for us is how do we get sufficient energy brought in so that we can run our facilities in our case we're looking at about one hundred eighty mile natural gas pipeline that will then provide the power for a power plant here can generate electricity to support all of our our infrastructure out here it's a great challenge to ask people to. look around them and identify the minerals that they use so i to use the prop of the i phone fifty two different minerals that i follow at the culprits are.
10:42 am
the frustrating part of the tour it is like where all the fault. you know there's a real problem. in the mines and. the mine is. a symptom of some problem with the way we approach the land the way that we consume things. like topic. it's a lot about. being an economic necessity but i also think this erna can hide the first lady living off the land it's a necessity of here. we have fundamental issues with a relationship to the planet have there been lots of instances that i've seen where indigenous communities just have a better model. just because they might be a smaller number of people it doesn't make it a less valid way of life. i do really care about this place and my family some here
10:43 am
about the end of the day i am also another person that comes here during the summer and leaves so you like to take the. not really sure what i can. see there the eggs are kind of loose so when we start cooking and we just pool is stuff off. i make my grandma happy when i come back i help her with fish so that makes me feel like i belong in that way. you. are so silly they're not. all right. really but if you look good for her. will she pick the covers oh i go oh my gosh that's beautiful i don't know i feel
10:44 am
like i'm going to cry. it's so pretty you know wall will look at it. and i'm biased but this is the produce cost but given. that it was yours. and i shared a. love of. gratitude like you so much. well you. you can there we can trade for our brick here and you said you had fabric over to the safe called the soup which is like a traditional market and they have a bunch of. different fabrics and stuff so yeah yeah you can pick out fabric from me we have a fun project to do back and. i feel like if you give yourself permission to care about
10:45 am
a place you also need to give yourself permission to belong to a place and i have a hard time doing that. but i also know what it's like to be repeatedly drawn to somewhere to love a community and a people and to want to honor their way of life. and maybe i can draw others into this place too on. a journey of personal discovery about how the soviet rule has shaped the present day georgia if you people who shoot your past you will never have a future in government buildings and then more new ones they seem to inspire you doors always them in your own people they are small algis there is time i love our show let me it's a examines the cultural influences of the soviet union al-jazeera correspondent the soviet scar travel often. by tranquil forty's and purple

the satellite picture is showing that area of cloud that's making its way across the eastern part ahead of it it was dragging in some quite warm weather but behind it it's a lot fresher so a maximum in new york of seventeen degrees there which is sixty three in fahrenheit and for washington d.c. we should get to around fifty which is fifty nine in faran high as that system plays out the way another one is forming behind it and that will gradually works its way eastwards as we head into sunday snow on the northern edge as it hits that cold air but plenty of rain for the south all the way down through texas and as that one works its way away from us another one is making its way in from the pacific so for us there in seattle do expect some more rain as we head further south we can also see some of that weather over north america is affecting us in mexico to his stretching down that area of cloud so turning cooler for say mexico city a maximum temperature just of around eighteen or nineteen degrees over the next few days everywhere to the south of that area of what weather well there's some shine but there's also some showers and do expect some of those showers to be rather
10:48 am
heavy even as we head through sunday as we head down towards south america while it's paragon of the northern parts of argentina on the southern parts of brazil where we have the heaviest of the rain for saturday. you need to understand the very different. al-jazeera. hello i'm daryn jordan this is the al-jazeera news hour live from doha coming up in the next sixty minutes president insists that the orders to kill the germs. came from the highest levels of the saudi government and demands the public monsters be
10:49 am
revealed. ramping up the pressure on iran the u.s. re imposes sanctions on tehran targeting its oil and financial sector. protests called off a deal is reached and demonstrations against a christian woman accused of blasphemy. you think. we have the numbers here. remaining defiant sri lanka's ousted prime minister says he's not going anywhere. now it's been one month since saudi journalist walked into his country's consulate in istanbul never to be seen again his death remains a mystery but turkey has revealed more details about what it believes happened investigators say he was strangled as soon as he entered the building and his body dismembered a turkish senior official has told al-jazeera that the corpse was then dissolved in
10:50 am
acid and that the saudi hit squad that killed has carried out similar operations before the turkish president is convinced the order to kill him came from the highest levels of the saudi government but he does not believe that king solomon ordered the hit fisher has more from istanbul. president the one takes a stride and some would say aggressive tone in this opinion piece he's written for the washington post he says that saudi arabia has three key questions to answer first of all where is the body of jamal khashoggi secondly who is the so-called local cool operator who helped the saudis dispose of the body and thirdly who ordered the hit as he calls it on jamal khashoggi he says he's sure that king solomon was not involved in the operation but he said the decision was taken at the highest level of saudi circles that would identify only a handful of people including crown prince mohammed bin soundman president everyone
10:51 am
says what happened in the consulate behind me was a clear breach of the vienna conventions which dictates how countries behave in diplomatic posts and he talks about the eighteen people who are currently being held in connection with the killing of jamal khashoggi in saudi arabia he asks why the consul general is not one of these people here was a man he says who stood in the consulate and lied through his teeth about what happened to the washington post writer he also talks about the offer by saudi arabia for turkish investigators to go there to interview these people he calls it a desperate and deliberate stalling tactic he says the what happened to jamal khashoggi was not just an attack on a journalist but essentially attack on a nation he says that other nato countries would not stand by and let this happen and says there must be a response to this and he also says that while many countries would like this to go away this diplomatic breach this diplomatic incident suddenly to be healed this was
10:52 am
a problem that was not going to simply go away or turkey's putting the pressure on saudi arabia to explain what exactly happened. the kingdom's crown prince mohammed bin soundman has met evangelical christians in the u.s. as he tries to brush off accusations that he was involved in the killing of bar reports from istanbul. the saudi crown prince in riyadh welcoming evangelical christians from the united states a rare gathering in the muslim world most conservative country the kingdom's keen to repair its international reputation damaged by the killing of. the saudi journalist disappeared a month ago in istanbul after two weeks of denials saudi leaders eventually admitted the journalist was accidently killed then we pete earley changed their account of what we really happened saudi allies are worried about further
10:53 am
repercussions of the international outcry and for the first time israel has commented on the killing voicing its concerned about possible destabilisation of the kingdom and the region what happened. and will consulate was horrendous and should be doing. yet at the same time i say. it's very important for the stability. of the region and of all that saudi arabia remain stable and i think that a way must be found to achieve both. hotshot jews murder has solved relations between turkey and saudi arabia. frustrated over what they describe as evasive saudi attitudes the turks are keeping up the diplomatic pressure on the kingdom. that's a memorial service in washington d.c.
10:54 am
her decision is her succes fiance is grappling with her loss even though a month has passed since jamal's murder his body has still not been given to his loved ones and his funeral prayer has still not taken place this is the smallest thing that one can do after a loved one has passed in the religion of islam and we still haven't been able to do that and our pain is still as fresh as the first day turkish investigators have brushed aside a saudi offer to fly to riyadh for more concerted ations they blame the saudis for stalling the investigation and turning it into a coverup they are also demanding the extradition of eighteen saudi suspects to stand trial in istanbul it's been a month to the day since jamal has just disappeared and every day since then turkish investigators have been trying to piece together what happened to him they say now they know what not where his remains are and saudi officials continue to
10:55 am
deny allegations the royal family is involved. it's double or david kay is the un special rapporteur on the right of freedom of opinion and expression he's reiterated the call for an independent investigation into what happened. i don't myself have the power to initiate any kind of investigation but the secretary general has that power the un security council has the power the human rights council has that power and my case and colleagues in the un system have been calling exactly for that an independent international investigation into the circumstances of jamal khashoggi his death turkey although it has all of the tools available to conduct an investigation has politics involved here too and so it's very difficult for for me to see how there can be an independent incredible investigation that comes from this other than one that's authorized by an
10:56 am
international body like the un ending the war in yemen ending the embargo of cutter i mean those are absolutely important things that must happen but those things must not happen by sacrificing the idea of accountability for this terrible crime that's left a journalist dead murdered in a consulate of saudi arabia. these murders highlighting the dangers facing journalists around the world the committee to protect journalists says forty three reporters have been killed whilst doing their jobs this year united nations has dedicated november second as a day to end impunity for crimes against journalists from london is to help anti corruption journalists definitely count on. killed when a bomb exploded under her car in multan one year ago. palestinian photographer shot by israeli forces during a mass demonstration along the gaza border in april. and at least eight journalists
10:57 am
murdered in mexico so far this year their profession now categorized as high risk in that country and getting riskier almost everywhere else this year seventy five journalists at least have been killed roughly two a week and yet nobody gets punished for these crimes so what we want are buying international norms in the form of a united nations convention to would tress the question of impunity because impunity doesn't just affect the journalists or their families it affects the whole of society because the implication is that if you can get away with killing a journalist more people are likely to attack and kill journalists and in that way more journalists end up self censoring in certain societies where they're under threat in one thousand nine hundred seventy eight told a day not unlike this one bulger in dissident and journalist yogi markov was murdered on london's waterloo bridge allegedly by
10:58 am
a member of his country's secret service the weapon of choice a poison tipped umbrella. attacks on journalists are nothing new they've been going on bryza long as the powerful about something to hide from the people but the silencing of free speech is no less shocking for that whether by bombs by bullet or other insidious means. the two thousand and eighteen version of the umbrella murder on waterloo bridge the alleged strangulation and dismemberment of exiled saudi journalist jamal khashoggi inside the country's consulate in istanbul the middle east is at the louis rank of the. reporters without borders index for freedom of press it is the woods please to be a journalist we know of cases where journalists are. just one in many in syria in palestine in egypt across the region in the gulf this is a pattern that has gone on for far too long what chance of justice for her and the
10:59 am
great many others the u.n. notes that in nine out of ten cases the killers go unpunished jonah how al jazeera london. the trump administration says it will reimpose sanctions on iran that were lifted as part of the twenty fifth a nuclear deal the u.k. russia france china germany and the e.u. have all condemned the move to go in as the latest from washington d.c. . it's probably fair to say u.s. foreign policy has never been announced like this but this is an actual tweet from the u.s. president meant to look like a movie poster warning that sanctions are coming and the president later addressed that on the south lawn sanctions are starting on iran. you know rand is to get a very big get his top aides including treasury secretary steve minutia and talking tough as well at a conference call with reporters the treasury department will have more than seven
11:00 am
hundred names to our list of blocked answer to this includes hundreds of targets previously granted sanction for leave under the j. c.p.o. i as well as more than three hundred new jack nations this is substantially more than we ever have previously done but they are giving waivers to eight countries allowing them to continue. with the promise they will reduce that amount over time the u.s. is breaking the international deal and the rest of the signatories say they want to stay in it proponents of the nuclear deal say this move will isolate the u.s. russia was abiding by it the chinese were abiding by it the europeans were abiding by it and most importantly the iranians were abiding by it's now the united states that is in breach of that agreement and is now actually going so far as to punish countries that are abiding by a u.n. security council resolution you really can't get more pariah than the european
11:01 am
union created what they hope will be a work around to still do business in iran u.s. officials are brushing off its potential but are warning allies they could face a actions as well right now talking tough while the world waits to see if it will be more than words petty calling al-jazeera washington. well hussein askari is from george washington university he says the u.s. can impose sanctions but it cannot stop iran's nuclear ambitions. what america has done and really is the united states is the only country that gets away with this type of action it uses second resign actions in this way that it tells a company that if you do business in iraq that you can't do business in the united states it is find some banks for instance a fine b.n.p. party but i think ten billion dollars. and said if you want to do business in the united states you have to pass that before you do this so as you can imagine most companies and most entities are rather reluctant to sacrifice the u.s.
11:02 am
market for iran the united states once has twelve demands what exactly saudi arabia did and is saying you've got to do these things and there are three on at the top of them this one is to say iran has to end its support for terrorism but iran is has not supported terrorism for many many years that is off the table it says iran has to end its missile program well iran is not going to stop that iran faces israel with nuclear war that the united states is surrounded iran on all sides and you want iran to just say ok we're not going to do anything with that is not going to happen and then the third thing that's very important is they want iran to stop its operations in syria and the iranian view on that is very simple syria was the only country that supported iran during the iran iraq war when the united states
11:03 am
and the europeans gave out both chemical weapons to iraq to use some iranians and so iran has two thousand new choice but to say for sources come on the news hour including donald trump that there's a bill u. turn on his threats the military would shoot migrants trying to reach the u.s. illegally. like. rubbing against alloca how young people in thailand are using music to push a police. message and sport another joke which gets this twenty first win in a row and reaches the sunday finals of the paris masters who behave the sport a little bit later in the program. the u.s. and turkey are lifting sanctions on each other's countries after the release of an american pasta last month and drew bronze and was jailed in turkey and accused of being involved in the failed military coup in twenty sixteen since return to the us
11:04 am
so i'm concerned as more from ankara for there are actually two good news for turkey today one of them is lifting the sanctions over imposed over a turkish ministers along with the u.s. ministers both sides by later lifted those sanctions plus turkey received a waiver on u.s. sanctions that are targeting iran which means that turkey is exempted from these sanctions as turkish petroleum is trading it with iran in terms of oil these are very good news and this was welcomed by the investors mostly and turkish lira which has been suffering for the last three months is now performing its strongest level against the u.s. dollar gaining one point seven percent at least it today of course these are not the only topics that that we can count as a positive development between washington and ancora we have been seeing that these two countries have been exchanging information over germany murder case in
11:05 am
a very firmly diplomatic way plus we see that turkey and u.s. has has come to an agreement over. and it's the northeast and syria and turkey and u.s. have begun their joint patrols so this week is actually a gain for ankara in terms of bettering the relations with the united states and its program already by. he is a professor of international relations at the high university joins us via skype from washington d.c. all right so turkey and the u.s. have lifted sanctions against each other's government officials but does this signal a real full intentions what is turkey using the killing to open broader issues with washington. well it is it is not a real opening of turkish american relations i mean those those sanctions were symbolic that really didn't mean anything they were mostly designed to send
11:06 am
a message to the turks a guiding castle gunson but let me remind you that there are three different consular officials from the state department consular officials who object to citizens who are in jail in turkey and those have not been good least and this is a actually he continues to be a major irritant injection american nations and we should not underestimate how angry people on the hill on their own in congress and the state department are for the tension of these people fall more than a year now and then there's also the fact that in syria the turks are firing on syrian kurds who are. allies of the united states in the fight against the islamic state and the syrian kurds have basically said today that they will stop fighting the islamic state in order to the group and to defend themselves against the turks so here is that was a deal on the on mum beach and the turks and americans have been talking for a long time and the americans are not very happy with where to do nothing they want
11:07 am
to do it but they went along not to hold do to increase tensions with the turks so take a listen ship is actually very very tense when it's not one of the last station and i would say as i said there are tensions of assyria but they're all still some big outstanding issues between both nato allies i mean turkey wants the u.s. to extradite the tuna doonan the man the turkish president says masterminded the twenty sixteen coup but that's not likely to happen that is it. no it's not likely to happen because the turks have not provided sufficient evidence to be to prove that mr goulden was involved in the cool there's nothing d.s. government can do when he comes since tradition on my turkey. prison time cannot order. addition of somebody unless the coach find him guilty but the checks have not provided evidence to satisfy america and the american
11:08 am
judicial system may also you mind you there's also the issue of the turkish decision to buy for the russian missiles that will jeopardize the f. thirty five top of mind american fighter jets buying and the congress has also promised simple sections and events that the turks go ahead with that purchase and intercept the other me the purchases going on that will go in twenty one thousand will happen just a final thought from you what about this troublesome issue of regional turkey saudi arabia rivalry i mean turkey has saudi arabia on the defensive at the moment but that's not likely to last because it. but that's a good question i mean the united states wants a construct here fair to be dissolved but this is bad as you pointed out that if a larger saudi turkish dates for regional leadership i mean the saudis where we're kind of the king of the region the turks and challenging ramps and in many ways
11:09 am
a question again. are they going to do it's actually trying to sharon's but the americans the prefer the saudis of the tracks on this issue but they're caught in between because you have to do do something about the murder but on the other hand they do not want to see the stabilize and did not want to text attempt the upper hand on this issue because if you also look at turkish rhetoric on the united states it's actually pretty vehement and pretty anti-american that's a moment so the turkish president and all the churches she has to present being attacking the united states and our jews in united states all going to a single cool well organized you know tax on the turkish there so this is not to. relationship to any is on the men's only poppy thank you very much for talking to al-jazeera thank you protests in pakistan against the release of
11:10 am
a christian woman had been called off after three days of violence the government's reached an agreement with conservative muslim groups on wednesday the supreme court overturned the death sentence of the woman accused of insulting islam come all high reports. have. happened. but it is danced in jordan who throws. for three days the protests over the yard their baby gate shut down parts of everybody thirty fifty would head man of out of the whole city is filled with fear and no one is coming out to the situation of unrest mostly road to quiet not much transport is a violent. i see b.b. is a pakistani christian woman condemned to did eight years ago after an argument with their muslim neighbors led them to accuse her of insulting islam this new priem court overturned the conviction this week saying there wasn't enough evidence but
11:11 am
reaction in some quarters was you. so what he wanted. we did not accept the supreme court's one sided verdict at least so we request the supreme court reviews its judge part of its constitution largent bench to hear this case again we're focused on here prime minister emraan khan insisting he were not allow what he calls religious hardliners to cripple the country damaged property and fight with police this goldman has taken a stand and i hope it's just sort of lives that the stand and he takes on and then takes effective measures to deal with these miscreants and restore his laws because people of pakistan who are peace loving they are really fed up with these people who abuse allision for their own small neural net maybe a sense now it seems the prime minister has succeeded that decision by the ultra conservative group that he can lead. to call off
11:12 am
a street protest followed new for d.d. being struck with the government. but it's too soon to judge where did that signal is long term reform of pakistan's blasphemy laws or just a short lived compromise to restore order amal i did al jazeera islam. yes president donald trump has backtracked from suggestions that the military sent to the border with mexico would shoot migrants if they throw rocks at troops he made the comments on thursday referring to a central american migrants were trying to enter the country without documents but now he's back tof from that threat. what they did to the mexican military is a disgrace they end up with rocks very seriously injured and they were throwing rocks in their face they do that with us they're going to be arrested there's going to be a problem i didn't say whew i didn't say here but they do that when. they're going to be arrested for

a long time for immigration on the economy on major issues in the midterm elections which are four days away it's seen as a referendum of trump's presidency and spending the last weekend before the poll campaigning for republican candidates in six states americans will be voting for members of the house of representatives some senators and governors republicans county control both houses of congress. this election will decide whether we build on the extraordinary prosperity that we've only nobody can believe what's happened or whether we let the radical democrats take control of congress and take a giant wrecking ball to our economy and to our future. america now has the best economy and the history of our country and we want to keep it that way. mike hanna joins us live now from washington d.c. mike so we've seen former u.s. president barack obama on the campaign trail for the democrats what impact is he
11:14 am
having like. well he certainly the democrats heavyweight he's been sent out there to galvanize the crowds at a number of rallies the other democrat heavyweight that's been sent out his former vice president joe biden also very popular at these campaign rallies former president obama has been careful in his speeches not to mention president trump by name however he continually implies that this is a referendum about the trump presidency while he may not mention the name he makes very clear who he's talking about and the basic thrust of president obama's speeches as being that the nature of the country has changed and the nature of the country has changed because of the president of the past two years oh america was at a crossroads. the health care of millions is on the belt. making sure working families get
11:15 am
a fair shake it's on the shelf. but maybe most of all the character of our country is on the about the look in the casing weeks of this election and we're seeing repeated attempts to divide us. with rhetoric. designed to make us angry and make us fearful some might just walk us through what's really at stake here with these midterm elections. well what's at stake is control of congress control of the house of representatives and control of the senate the republicans of being in control of both parties right through the trauma presidency but democrats are certain that they can get a majority in the house of representatives at least they need to flip twenty three seats in order to achieve that they need to flip two seats in the senate to get control of the senate but this would be deeply significant in terms of the president trumps the last two years and presidency he'd have to act in
11:16 am
a very different way with congress at no longer supports him blindly as a republican congress has done to the state the key issue here is the number of voters who define themselves as independents they've measured some one third of the electorate and it's these voters who the democrats are hoping will come to the polls this time galvanized by their anger at the trump presidency democrats are confident the polls indicate they will get the house of representatives but we've seen what opinion polls have done back in two thousand and sixteen all right mike thank you tom for a break here al-jazeera when we come back from crisis to opportunity suggestions of the huge influx of that is when refugees into colombia may have a silver lining and no water for eight million people find out why one of the world's biggest cities is turning up the taps on a sportsman biles wins gold again snagging her thirteenth will title and one else in her sport for that status.

put itself together so by the time we get to sunday them we'll see that rain push its way through parts of iraq and into syria as well heavy downpours out of this and look at the direction of the wind is coming from the south so picking up a lot of dust as well so it will be a fairly hazy day for many of us too some of that time will be affecting us a bit further south as well so if we look at the chart across the arabian peninsula we can see lots of cloud there across parts of saudi and across parts of kuwait as well but it will slip its way further south as we had three saturday night and into sunday so they could just be the odd shower but for the south as well the main area of rain though is to the north for say muscat should be dry for us it's a temperature of a pleasant twenty eight degrees which is eighteen in fahrenheit for the southern parts of africa there's been lots of wet weather recently but it is now easing or just see a few showers there around the coast of mozambique and maybe a few. around parts of madagascar elsewhere it looks mostly dry in cape town but thirty five. the weather sponsored by cats peace.
1:04 pm
adequate house. adequate who decides. housing is not just about four walls and a roof it's about living in a place where you have peace security and most importantly dignity un special rapporteur. talks to al-jazeera. hello again this is al-jazeera the main news this out case president says that he's
1:05 pm
convinced that the order to kill jamal khashoggi came from the highest levels of the saudi government a turkish investigator told out zero that the saudi journalist body was dismembered and dissolved in acid he was killed on october second. evangelical christians from the u.s. have made a rare visit to saudi arabia they've met with crown prince mohammed bin solomon and government ministers the kingdom is trying to repair its international reputation following jamal. protests in pakistan have been called off after a deal between the government and conservative muslim groups demonstrations began on wednesday when the supreme court overturned the death sentence of a christian woman accused of insulting islam. u.s. president donald trump has backtracked from his earlier threat that troops would shoot like grunts at the mexican border if they threw rocks he made the comments on thursday referring to people from central america and central america rather attempting to reach the u.s.
1:06 pm
without documents but now he's backed off from that threat. what they did to the mexican military is that this great they hit him with rocks very seriously injured and they were throwing rocks in their face they do that with us they're going to be arrested there's got to be a problem i didn't take you i didn't say here but they do that with us they're going to be arrested for a long time. immigration and the economy a major issues in the midterm elections in the u.s. now only four days away it's seen as a referendum on trump's presidency americans will be voting to elect members of the house of representatives some senses and governments republicans currently control both houses of congress under serious mike hanna reports from washington. well president trump is not standing in the selection but he's certainly putting a lot of effort into it he's attended rally after rally his message fear of
1:07 pm
immigration in particular i labeling the caravan that's crossing across mexico as an invasion sending troops to the border and what his critics contend is merely an election tactic but along with that fear of immigration president trump is also stressed economy economy he claims that his presidency has turned around this election will decide whether we build on the extraordinary prosperity that we've unleashed nobody can believe what's happened or whether we let the radical democrats take control of congress and take a giant wrecking ball to our economy or to our future. americans now has the best economy in the history of our country and we want to keep it that way many observers contend it was under the previous president that the economy started to turn around and president obama's out a nice campaign rallies as well the democrats heavyweight to galvanize the masses
1:08 pm
to go to the polls to cost their votes with democrats in support of this well by former vice president joe biden but a parochial bomb has been very careful in his language during the campaign very seldom referring to president trump by name but making very clear the implication that under this president the very nature of the society has changed america was at a crossroads. the health care of millions is on the bell. making sure working families get a fair shake it's all about. but maybe most of all the character of our country is on the bow of the our the old in the closing weeks of this election we have seen repeated attempts to divide us. with rhetoric.
1:09 pm
designed to make us angry and make us fearful the democrats need to flip the twenty three republican seats in the house of representatives to achieve a majority that they need to flip to republican seats in the senate to take control of that body for the first time president trump may be facing a congress that isn't entirely republican controlled certainly something he hasn't had to contend with in his first two years opinion polls indicate the democrats do stand a good chance of taking control of the house of representatives not that good a chance of getting control of the senate however opinion polls back in two thousand and sixteen told us that president trump couldn't possibly win the u.s. is to reimpose sanctions on iran that will lift to dispose of the twenty fifteen nuclear deal restrictions on the shipping energy and finance sectors will come into force on monday the other parties to the nuclear deal have condemned the move spread eagle hain reports from washington. it's probably fair to say u.s.
1:10 pm
foreign policy has never been announced like this but this is an actual tweet from the u.s. president meant to look like a movie poster warning that sanctions are coming and the president later addressed that and the south lawn sanctions are starting on iran and you know randi thank you the very beginning his top aides including treasury secretary steve talking tough as well on a conference call with reporters the treasury department will have more than seven hundred names to our list of blocked answer days this includes hundreds of targets previously granted sanction for leave under the j.c. p.r.i. as well as more than three hundred new debt nations this is substantially more than we ever have previously done but they are giving waivers to eight countries allowing them to continue. with the promise they will reduce that amount over time the u.s. is breaking the international deal and the rest of the city. the tories say they
1:11 pm
want to stay in it proponents of the nuclear deal say this move will isolate the u.s. russia was abiding by it the chinese were abiding by it the europeans were abiding by it and most importantly the iranians were abiding by it's now the united states that is in breach of that agreement and is now actually going so far as to hunnish countries that are abiding by a u.n. security council resolution you really can't get more pariah than the european union created what they hope will be a work around to still do business in iran u.s. officials are brushing off its potential but are warning allies they could face a actions as well right now talking tough while the world waits to see if it will be more than words petty calling al-jazeera washington. crumbling economy has forced millions of people to leave with a million of them going to neighboring colombia the world bank says that the influx comes with sides but could be good for colombia's economy. p.s.
1:12 pm
he reports from the border city of. the world bank calls it an unprecedented exodus in latin america one more akin to a full blown refugee crisis then people searching for a better life it's one conclusion of a report by the international financial institution to assess the impact that the venezuelan exodus is having in neighboring colombia the speed and number of migrants escaping the country coupled with their vulnerable condition makes the venezuelan crisis one of the world's worst yet many believe it's not getting enough attention. people go crazy over the caravan of central americans entering mexico trying to reach the u.s. five maybe six thousand migrants many week every four days. whether french is. a shelter and services for migrants in the border city of. hundreds of been.

1:14 pm
so many young migrants could be beneficial for the colombian economy. act fast. and needs more young workers legalising the new arrivals in creating jobs could reap benefits in coming years the government says it agrees with the suggestions but implementing them requires money they don't have. monkeys making a huge effort in the middle of major fiscal restrictions with the international community to understand what's happening and. international donors have promised one hundred thirty million dollars for colombia only thirteen million has arrived so far with the crisis expected to continue in likely getting worse the entire continent this threatened with the consequences alison there are. dozens of palestinians have been injured in protests along the border with israel at least
1:15 pm
two hundred ten people have been killed since the weekend friday demonstrations began in late march palestinians in gaza demanding the right to return to land occupied by israel and an end to its twelve year blockade on the strip terry for support from the gaza israel border. well there was word on thursday here in gaza after the intervention of village a delegation they met with the committee that runs these protests there was word that they were going to be scaled down in size and turn and if i just get out of the way i think we can see that that is pretty much come true this is a smaller in number protests than we've seen in recent weeks also as promised it seems there are no incendiary devices kites and balloons being lit and launched towards israel a very small number of tires being set on fire to try to provide screening and in response the israelis are using the prevailing winds which are coming from israel this friday and using
1:16 pm
a pretty large use of tear gas in terms of the proportion of people it is being used against so largely people are being kept back from the fence what's interesting are the politics which are underlying all of this this addiction delegation which is still in town and has visited the processed sites at a different site up slightly north of here along the border that's part of a wider scale effort both to try to reconcile the palestinian factions fatah which dominates the palestinian authority in the occupied west bank hamas which controls gaza trying to broker some kind of longer term truce between the israelis and hamas there is talk of israel facilitating potentially fifteen million dollars a month of funding for non fighting staff members or people who work for hamas here in the gaza strip they're already facilitating the qatari fuel which is drastically changed the electricity supply in the strip as well and so after weeks where we've seen things get very close to a major military escalation on
1:17 pm
a number of occasions there is a different atmosphere this weekend here in gaza and we're seeing it not least in the scale of this protest eight million people living in mexico city and looking forward to having their water supply restored on saturday after a three day enforced drought. pollo reports. authorities say that as many as three million of mexico city's eight million residents have already been impacted by water cuts the city's water system director has urged residents who still have water to use it sparingly he said quote take extreme care of the water this means no washing clothes this means taking baths with small buckets and no washing dishes in the sink a lot of the public schools here in mexico city have also shut down for the duration of these water cuts giving families an opportunity to leave town some of the wealthier parts of the city have their own private cisterns but we're talking about upscale restaurants upscale hotels and at many of the shopping malls a lot of the the businesses in the city have shut down for the duration of these
1:18 pm
water cuts and it could be until november eighth that full service is restored but water shortages are not uncommon in mexico authorities have been preparing for this for several weeks now setting up large tankers in strategic parts of the city filling up cisterns with possible water in the event of an emergency but again though the water table underneath mexico city has been exploited for many many years so this is not a new problem for authorities in fact it's one of the reasons that many of the historic buildings in mexico city are sinking by an average of about twenty centimeters every year so this maintenance being done is very important it's believed that as much as forty percent of possible water is lost through leaks in these faulty pipes so this is a much anticipated maintenance project by the city of mexico city. it is good to have you with us hello adrian so you can hear the headlines and turkeys president says that he's convinced that the order to kill jamal has shown
1:19 pm
she came from the highest levels of the saudi government. wrote in the washington post that he's frustrated by saudi arabia's failure to cooperate with the investigation a turkish investigator told al jazeera that the journalists body was dismembered and dissolved an acid so he was killed a month ago so in a honda reports from istanbul. turkey is not going to let this go this is not going to go away and of course writing in the washington post the same newspaper that the contribution to this is a message really. of the americans the international community because there's a lot of frustration here in turkey that the u.s. administration is not putting enough pressure on saudi arabia to cooperate or to go on saying that he believes the order to kill she was given at the highest levels of government evangelical christians from the u.s. have made a rare visit to saudi arabia they've met with crown prince mohammed bin solomon and
1:20 pm
government ministers the kingdom is trying to repair its international reputation following. but the u.s. is re imposing sanctions on iran that were lifted in twenty fifteen's nuclear deal the measures will be in will begin on monday the u.k. russia france china germany and the european union have all condemned the move eight countries will be allowed exemptions from sanctions should they do business with tehran blasphemy protests in pakistan are being called off after a deal between the government and conservative muslim groups they began on wednesday when the supreme court overturned the death sentence of a christian woman who's accused of insulting islam i source says that it was behind an attack that killed seven coptic christians in egypt gunmen fired at two buses on their way to a monastery in the city of minya two hundred sixty kilometers south of cairo six of the dead were from the same family president fattah el-sisi is promising to punish those responsible. are the headlines these continues to talk to our own zero next.
1:21 pm
and historic day for the but i mean he every returning brings a series of breaking stories told through the eyes of the welds john in a sense these two voices journalists were one of the few journalists that were actually doing investigative black listening post as we turn the cameras on the media and focus on how they report on the stories that matter. the rights to those stories but then he never publishes their stories their listening post on al-jazeera. you can. see. it's the one riddle that seems almost impossible to solve look at any major city regardless of political or economic system and the chances are it's not solved the basic issue for its citizens how to strike
1:22 pm
a balance between supply and demand for housing and in that dilemma lies a real human rights problem at least according to the un special rapporteur to adequate housing leylandii for how she was appointed in twenty fourteen and the picture she's painting of this difficult situation isn't pretty given how persistent and pervasive it is around the world a natural question to ask is is there any solution and any particular or easily identifiable calls. we discussed this real and complex question with. on talk to al-jazeera. before her special rough put on the right to adequate housing thank you for talking to al-jazeera we'll have a discussion about the global housing and homelessness problem but first let me ask you about that title special report. explain to us what that means what you
1:23 pm
do and who you report sure i was a. pointed by the un human rights council which is pretty much the highest human rights body within the u.n. system and i am appointed as a kind of global watchdog at least that's how the media presents me and my job is to monitor and assess how people are doing with respect to their right to housing in countries around the world so it's a global mandate and i look at things like homelessness the adequacy of housing the affordability of housing forced evictions those sorts of things my job is also to kind of develop the right to housing to some degree to right thematic reports to help states understand what does the right to housing actually mean and how can it be implemented in a practical way. i also try to hold states accountable to their human rights obligations not an easy task but certainly
1:24 pm
a really important one and in this day and age let's start with the basics you talk about the right to housing where is it written down that everyone has a right to housing yet so it's in the universal declaration of human rights for example article twenty six everyone has the right to an adequate standard of living including adequate housing it's an adult human celebrates his seventieth birthday right now that's right exactly so you know that is the main articulation and i like that articulation because it sits there amidst all of the human rights you know and that's the way i view housing it has tentacles into every other human right practically think about the right to life and security of the person but it's in a whole host of treaties the most recent recent treaty took to come into being the one on persons with disabilities it includes the right to adequate housing it's in an articulation of economic social and cultural rights a treaty of both those rights it's articulated there it's actually one of the most
1:25 pm
articulated economic and social rights out there so there has been a lot. of writing in activism on the right to housing the right to adequate housing difficult word isn't it what isn't adequate who decides what is adequate yeah so it's funny because it's so obvious what might be adequate housing what we say is that under international human rights law and there is a un committee that has talked about this through what they call a general comment that housing is not just about four walls and a roof it is about four walls and a roof but it's not just about that it's about living in a place where you have peace security and most importantly dignity and once you start playing with the idea of dignity well you can imagine what that means it means living in a place with proper sanitation and basic services toilets running water it means living in a place that's close to employment so that you can actually generate an income for
1:26 pm
your for your family or household it means living close to health care services child care services it means having security of tenure and that's a cornerstone cornerstone of the right to housing in other words you should not be fearful that you're going to lose your home like that. those are that you know the basic tenets it means living in a place without experiencing discrimination having access to housing without discrimination so adequacy is actually fairly well defined and in this you know right now affordability is a key component of adequate housing and the way affordability is defined is based on what a household income is so it has housing has to be affordable to people based on their actual income not based on what the market can bear you to find it very clearly let's now talk about how many people in the world do not have that now i preparing to talk to you been trying to read all the statistics you are an expert
1:27 pm
on this i've been trying to get up to speed it seems to me the last time a really big global survey. it was done was a long time ago two thousand and five when they came up with figures of one hundred million homeless worldwide and one point six billion people lacked laffing adequate housing that's some time ago over a decade ago yes as the situation got worse or better yes i mean i suspect the situation has only got worse if i look at my daily reality in my email inbox i can only say that there are so many troubling issues on in the area of housing right now so i think those figures are probably outdated and things have probably got worse we do know for example that approximately nine hundred million people that's a quarter of the world's population are living in informal settlements informal settlements slums that is without all of those elements of adequacy that i was talking about with often without basic services certainly without security of
1:28 pm
tenure so i mean it's a it's a huge percentage of the world's population right this is a very very urgent and serious matter if you have whatever figures of homelessness and how you define homelessness even if you just look at street homelessness tell me a city you've been to where you haven't seen street homelessness right you talk about these informal settlement slum shanty towns that some called him call him because some of the people there see that this is a community and they don't actually want to move from those places to that that's exactly right and one of the things that i find fascinating about informal settlements is the dual nature on the one hand. people are experiencing extreme violations of human rights in those informal settlements or slums right no no toilets and no sanitation i mean the horror of that we can all imagine no showers crumbling structures of fear of the vixen all the time so that's on the one hand the reality on the other hand i've visited many informal settlements the vibrancy.
1:29 pm
in those places the sense of community the way they will even though they don't have a paved road they will name their streets they will give each house a number they will ensure there's a community center where people can meet and talk and discuss there is a vibrancy there and people do want to remain in their homes of course some people have lived in informal settlements for decades and generations so of course they don't want to leave and in fact under international human rights law that's the standard upgrading should happen in an ensuite two or as we say on site way in other words don't remove people from their homes unless there is absolutely no other option i've been looking at some of the figures or trying to find some of the figures for some of the key countries and obviously the problem is going to be worst in the places where there are more people particularly more people living in urban areas and it's difficult to get the real figures nigeria i've seen estimates
1:30 pm
of twenty four point four homeless people estimates in india an official figure of one point seven seven million but then the mess to much of seventy eight million the figures vary widely even here where we are right now were in new york in the u.s. official figures much smaller than the rest much of up to three point five million homeless do you believe this problem is seriously under reported and if so. you can decide that homeless population is people living rough on the streets and then you're going to get one figure you're going to go around and do a count on a single night how many people do you count on your street that's going to be a small figure you could then say no my definition is on the streets and in shelters so then you're going to get a slightly bigger figure but what about all of those people who are couch surfing living with family friends or relatives etc because they have no other place to go
1:31 pm
that's a population that is almost impossible to measure we know. no that that in every country that there is that population out there we know that and so the the estimates are going to vary widely based on definition i don't think that homelessness has been viewed as the human rights issue that it is the i don't think it's been given the sort of urgency of political will of social policy that it deserves and so i think that's also part of the problem let's talk about the life of someone who's homeless and why the definition whether it's in an informal settlements rushy living on the streets how does it affect someone's life not just not having somewhere to live one of the ways to save the fact that for example the hells. this is a population that is deeply traumatized you can imagine. a day on the street it would be completely traumatizing for us in light of you know where where or how
1:32 pm
we're positioned it might imagine a week on the street imagine a year imagine five years it is a completely traumatizing experience and what we find is that the that experience can actually trigger psychosocial disability people are always like oh the people who are homeless or they're all crazy they're all going to have some psychological problems many many people who hit the streets are completely of sound mind it's the trauma of being on the street that can trigger psycho social disability the trauma of living on the street is what often leads people to do things like drugs right it's to numb the experience i've talked to many people in the united states in particular i was out in california and just saw some harrowing situations people with gainful employment working in hospitals working in animation studios living on the streets and telling me that the trauma of that has
1:33 pm
led them to undertake activities they never thought that they would be doing you mentioned life and expectancy one figure so can from the u.k. from the national health service in the u.k. the average homeless person has a life expectancy of forty seven use now if you go back to the wider population of the u.k. you have to go back about one hundred use for that to be the average life expectancy this is shameful isn't it i think it's shameful and you know you gave figures of homeless rates in different countries and you said you know what of course in the bigger countries there's going to be more people who are homeless but the way in which we deal with that sort of an analysis of homelessness is not so much based on population size and ratio but we look at the wealth and resources of a country and then we look at housing and home inadequate housing and. homelessness because of course there's there should be a correlation wealthy nation largest g.d.p.
1:34 pm
in the world you might expect to see less homelessness per capita cetera or no homelessness but that's not what we're seeing if you look at north america if you look at europe what are we seeing rising rates of homelessness in the richest countries in the world that to me is where we get into extremely shameful territory extremely shameful why is that how is it acceptable that you know g.d.p. is are increasing all the time hopefully and homelessness is rising all the time so is the main reason that cities as they grow as a nation takes place have become an affordable for most people one of the things is this very new phenomenon we've seen since about two thousand and eight that very special year where we mark the global financial crisis. housing has changed housing has become basically the hottest commodity around and at the same time
1:35 pm
housing is supposed to be a human right and so what we have is. investment in housing as a commodity as a place to park capital and grow wealth and that has changed the way in which housing operates it means you know if you think about it if you have investors private equity firms vulture funds buying up paos ing who are who is their principal concern it's their investor and if they're using housing to satisfy their investor interests what do they have to do with that housing if it's rental housing . it's obvious they have to increase their rents so what do governments do about the problem of homelessness because some are only dealing with that part of the problem hungry for example has come up with a new law or it's made homelessness effectively a crime it's bound for you to live on the streets they say people should go to
1:36 pm
emergency shelters is that going to help a policy like that it's it's i think it's cruel and i think it's completely misguided and obviously it's out of step with international human rights and human rights obligations it's out of step with the sustainable development goals there are places that are doing some good works in the area of homelessness if you look at the housing first study it is it is which actually sits nicely within a human rights framework the idea of housing first finland is where the model was first developed and it's where it is most successful finland and norway are the only places in europe where we haven't seen an increase in homelessness in the last year. and the housing first model is just that you say we will provide this population with housing first and then we will provide all of the services and supports that those households need in order to make
1:37 pm
a go of things and that's not time delimited and that's where the success lies in finland for example so in other words it's not a we'll throw services and supports at you for twelve months and then hate to pull up your socks and make your own way it is services and supports until that household really can be autonomy us and survive and thrive so that is a model that is working on the homelessness front but that doesn't address affordability issues and these bigger macro things that are happening that i that i've touched on you've mentioned your visits you've mentioned your very recent visit to egypt you were allowed to go in many of the human rights defenders have not been allowed to visit egypt the government there is to. going to make efforts to provide new housing are you concerned though that they are also trying to move populations away from the areas where they have the luxury. yeah my trip to egypt is very fresh i just got back. i think that the government is making
1:38 pm
a concerted effort to deal with some of their housing issues they've prioritized people living in what they call a life threatening situation so you know to close to a railway line underneath power lines that kind of thing underneath rocks that could fall and i think that that's really important obviously we want to save lives . i am a little bit concerned about the model in egypt because it's not people centered and a human rights approach to dealing with in formality or dealing with inadequate housing and i should say forty percent of the population in egypt is living in informal housing or what people call slums. in the human rights approach should be human centered you should really ensure that the population is part of the process every step of the way. it's an understanding that communities actually have knowledge expertise about their own fate and their own futures and their own
1:39 pm
communities and you have to empower those communities provide them with the resources to come up with their own plans another one recently i think worth raising is kabera in nairobi where there was an informal settlement shanty town slum whatever you want to call it to build a new road they got rid of the homes of some thirty thousand people what was interesting there i think i don't know whether you saw the photos taken by a reuters photographer there while the demolishing of the homes in that shanty town next door on the green of a golf course and there are golfers watching the destruction of these. it really sums up doesn't it in the quality center of the. the kibera situation is also deeply alarming to me and again i spoke out about that situation thirty thousand people facing homelessness. that mean that's the reality completely
1:40 pm
contrary to international human rights law and kenya's own constitution which protects the right to housing and has provisions around for steve actions. you know as i said the standard. for these situations is that you know force eviction is one considered a gross violation of human rights no community should be victim unless there is absolutely no viable alternative i have seen situations in thailand where in bangkok where the government wanted to build an off ramp from a highway right into a community an informal settlement and the community rallied and managed to figure out a way that that off ramp could in fact come down and the community can remain intact these things are possible i may not want to live underneath her around but that community wanted to stay and that was possible in bangkok surely there was another way in combat or it's the largest informal settlement in nairobi it's it's mind
1:41 pm
boggling to me i think the understanding of home has been lost i think people are viewed as dispensable i think as you say it's this inequality some people's lives matter and some don't seem to but how do you stop what has become all over the world i mean it's the result of urbanization globalisation and speculation how do you stop this trend because it's their rich investors look and they go where am i going to put my money today stocks baldwins i'm going to put it in gold oh no the safest bet is to buy property even if i don't want to live in it now. so huge it is absolutely a huge problem and i love that you mentioned you know should i put my money in gold versus housing and i can tell you everyone is going to housing and not gold. housing residential real estate is now valued at one hundred sixty three trillion
1:42 pm
dollars which i mean i can't even get my head around i'm not a numbers person i can't get my head around that one hundred sixty three trillion dollars is the value of residential real estate if you take the value of all gold that has been mined seven trillion right so so people are going for residential real estate for sure. how do you curb that that is the question of the day i think that some governments are doing some interesting things around this if you take singapore they have an eighteen i think eighteen percent tax on foreign owned property so that's a trying to you know it's using a tax system to sort of keep that it a little bit or at least keep it in check things like that can happen. you have a law in cata luny aware. they're trying to make it such that
1:43 pm
no mortgage foreclosure should result in even action that that would be even into homelessness that that would be legal so there are these small attempts at curbing this what do the single attempts to look at the way the world is run even look at who's running the world right now the united states of america is being run by a property developer yes absolutely and i'm glad you mention that too because that's not often talked about and what does that mean and when president trap originally had that advisory group i mean who did he have in that advisory group this is the c.e.o. of blackstone the largest private equity firm that is buying up properties real estate residential real estate around the world and really. creating an affordability everywhere they go it is almost like a price fixing situation right you mentioned blackstone what about reaching out to
1:44 pm
companies like that to see if they can help solve the problem that perhaps the creating yeah well yes i have actually reached out to blackstone and have tried to meet with them because i actually see them and my present position as raptor as. somehow related they are becoming well they're one of the larger third largest landlord in new york largest landlord in the united states they own i think something like three hundred thousand units worldwide right there a major player in the housing sector i'm a housing person on the global scale we should be talking it hasn't happened yet and i would really welcome that conversation because i'm not sure that they're aware of all of these human rights standards i don't think it's in their in their mindset it's not in their business model that's for sure but could it be i'm open i
1:45 pm

2:22 pm
playing. so is there a particular score that you have to get for you let loose on rotations on holidays a hundred such as. how many of these patients you see today everybody i'll say no i've got to last a set. of two hundred eighty five million people all blind or visually impaired worldwide and ninety percent of the us live in developing countries and yet with the right eye care and medical interventions eighty percent of vision impairments could be prevented if all kids. on drugs just lacey and i'm in zambia to meet the team of all this on the fly and on most of the oldest flying on hospital is an airplane has
2:23 pm
been converted into a fully functioning surgical and training hospital which travels to developing countries worldwide. the oldest team has been working here in zambia one of the least developed countries in the world since two thousand and ten. zero zero zero. zero zero zero zero. zero zero i get a. lot of my mother grandmother let me be there i think but i think it costs a little less guts and. the plane has a fully equipped operating room alongside laser treatment area. a multimedia classroom and an interactive training facility. richard has been brought in to have corrective surgery on a screen. this relatively simple operation will have a huge impact on richard's ability to perform well at school and therefore his prospects for the rest of his life. it also gives
2:24 pm
a local doctor. the opportunity to work alongside his mentor laurie benjamin one of the u.k.'s leading our surgeons so you see over there are microscope dr and bony doing the searches together with the dr benjamin it's it's amazingly well equipped the proper modern you know for long periods really expected when you come into the plane incredible. i want to show you another interactive feature only on the aircraft is this monitor over here so we have eighteen cameras onboard we have the opportunity a podcast and everything that's happening in the main operating theatre to the front classroom and as i can hear is a sergeant voice yes so that the surgeon doing the surgery as wearing a microphone so during surgery he's explaining the procedure step by step to the front from classroom and it also gives the ability of the participants in the training doctors to ask questions opens up a fair after another forty eight people in the course exactly mazie.
2:25 pm
the option by me which is just have your gratian how did it. do when. we were trying to correct this when to reach in here in terms of for your training had you done many years surgeries for you involved in all this actually most of the screens that we did during training was observatories is watching lots of what he was doing i see ok so these are really come with this. to date the drawing on a hospital team has trained medical staff some form surgeries in seventy eight different countries. one of the most important procedures that they teach is cataract surgery. cataracts occur when areas of the lens become opaque due to a change in the structure of proteins within this. prevents the normal transition
2:26 pm
of light through the lens making vision blurred or misty over time and without treatment the cataracts. leading eventually to blindness. this is one of the major problems that all the stills were in zambia essentially the problem is that you know the lens which sits just behind your people goes from being totally transparent to a bit cloudy and therefore impacting your vision is a nice way to demonstrate this so if at the moment of normal vision and then with the cataract. vision degrades to about so you can imagine the impact with this surgery when it returns to know. that you have another unique tool called a training program called a high simulator that might use it to get back to the head by heart and i started out really just right to you what later does ok hand track i'd love to go yeah here's my patient gets here's your luckily not real these these are icing
2:27 pm
a major you know you're going to grasp they're trying goals and put it in the center go too low you hit the lens and get the catch and. that means they're going to ok ok. if the countries that leaves it you know now that they don't have a chance to try this before i gave before going to a real i use that exact outsize in here. don you know in our closing you know and pull it out with drill and we're going to see your support ok . ok very nice. how do you know my sense a million or so is there a particular school that you have to get at least on the rotation oh hundred is a hundred before levi meets a group of women who have all had cataract surgery. sure she was totally gone she can see everything she couldn't squeeze my mind she would much rather than use in one way and then did she have surgery on the plane. yes yesterday are you the lady
2:28 pm
who was dancing just now here because because you're happy when you can you teach me to dance come on like i don't have anything that i was talking about my generation was. that there was only in. my. lifetime i. a key element of the old this program is to work with local medical staff using local facilities this ensures that even when the plane is gone the much needed specialist i treatment can still be provided in zambia this training is done it could to a central hospital where dr m. boney works our children and i problems vision impairment is not a big problem in zambia we have about fifty thousand children we did you get into
2:29 pm
the country since obvious came to keep it they provide what we needed to the ship they only give me a simple. this is the only i hospital children that hospital in zambia yes is there are. three young sisters have travelled over sixteen hours by box with their mother to receive treatment from the old his team. all three suffer from varying degrees of cataract blindness which has caused them to fall behind at school as i can see. two of the sisters are now recovering from the surgery. so we're just in the main hospital now just to go out and one of the wards to meet lucy who's the third child of the family who is having cataract operation this afternoon so from this way. motion me motion me lucy helen what lucy what's your favorite subject in school what you like
2:30 pm
to learn about this one issue of children in florida. so. how is your english lizzie one. that. you. haven't been tested. so the issue lucy has she has cataracts in both eyes and appears as though she has normal visual ability but in fact it's significantly impaired so much so that it's had a real impact on being able to go to school and her lifestyle at home so with the intervention this afternoon with the right medical treatment which may be able to make a real positive impact on that. i don't see. they don't want to have this surgery is another opportunity for doctors benjamin and bony to work together your age this kid. so they're all set to go in there to us
2:31 pm
now sort of sleep under general anaesthetic the surgeons are scrubbed and set to go so it's can see how they came out. during the operation the cataract is removed through a tiny incision in the on and a synthetic lens is inserted and i'll just use the pickup laser fifteen degree being frank here two point seven five. you see on the screen that that. is some better things as return the transparency to the people. and therefore should provide a good outcome for lucy. no new. york
