al-jazeera. and for you. a month after the murder of saudi journalist. turkey's president steps up pressure from the kingdom. on sami say this is al jazeera live from coming up. the stance government is accused of caving into conservatives making a deal to end protests over

a blasphemy conviction. and boy do you think mr trump is a crazy man who made the situation in the region drastically worse is a bomb in the region and sanctions have made the people hate and. contempt for donald trump grows on the streets of tehran just days before new stiffer u.s. sanctions go into place plus. for a long time the community was not part of the chief but now the community feels. more in the small boat. years of being shot out south africans could soon have part ownership of one of the largest tea farms in the world. the. journalist was killed in the saudi consulate in istanbul just over a month ago president continues to pressure the kingdom's leaders for answers in an article for the washington. dan says he's convinced the order to kill his shoji

came from the highest levels of the saudi government but of the one says he does not believe king solomon was the one who gave the order he stressed both countries continue to have friendly relations and he again demanded saudi officials reveal the location of g.'s body ordered one is warning the case will not go away saying no one should dare to commit such an act on the soil of a nato ally again he added the killing was a clear violation and blatant abuse of the vienna convention on consumer relations let's cross over now the house live in front of the saudi consulate in istanbul so how is the order there are not being seen inside turkey what is so he perceived to be pushing for. sami this is part of a push by these turkish government to step up the rhetoric against sandy officials

and we've seen that being replicated by every single turkish official who took to the podium over least a statement over the last few days basically saying that the saudis have broken promises to deliver justice to prosecute those responsible for the killing goes about. and that they have not been genuine with the turkish government about some crucial details particularly about who gave the order to kill zermelo hostility and the whereabouts of his remains and this explains the fuss ration of the turkish government they're trying to work of the details of what happened on the second of october but you know for them to be able to come up with an indictment they need to . find the where the whereabouts of the remains of the amount of hostility. because you cannot get ahold of the remains of the are going to the saudis and ask of them

since you have said that this was a premeditated killing you need to tell us more about what happened to your medal they didn't get any answer and this explains why yesterday with the. president of the about a dollar a while ago with the deputy party leader. this saying we're trusting soul man but at the same time when he's kicking someone to tell us exactly who killed your mother. all right let's bring in the bar let's bring in some live pictures from ankara that's where we're expecting that edge of tiber as want to speak and be speaking alongside the ukrainian president petro poroshenko there holding talks seventh what they call high level bilateral meeting between the countries since two thousand and eleven will bring you more on the talks as soon as they get underway. but a cat is director of the center for conflict and humanitarian studies at the doha

institute he says a lot of the un is trying to use the situation to improve diplomatic relations with the u.s. . well i think to understand what are the ones trying to get out of the whole affair it's important to look back at were or the gun was a month ago his content in the context of his relationship with the united states and with saudi arabia on the united states he was very much in in a very difficult turbulent relationship over a number of issues including ironically human rights accusations him imprisoning journalists academics going after golan in the united states and many other issues which led to sanctions and led also to the devaluation of the lira now for him that is a very important starting point is trying to make the best use of this to try and restore as much as possible that relationship. with saudi arabia he had lots of conflict already over a number of regional policies including the war in yemen they don't take any of

syria very important do not look at me on the muslim brotherhood issues and by extension the real issue with egypt emirates has also offered organ and excellent platform to be able to voice his concerns internationally a few days ago the whole world media was watching him speaking to the parliament and he didn't release much new information but he used it as an opportunity to talk about many other issues today his writing of the in the washington post against a very important crowd from for him which he would have probably been denied few weeks ago the protests in pakistan against the release of a christian woman acquitted of blasphemy charges have been called off the deal was struck between the government and conservative muslim groups that had been leading the demonstrations protests began on wednesday when the supreme court overturned our c. beebies death sentences on charges of insulting islam for child abuse pakistan's minister of information and broadcasting he says to deal with the protesters was

struck within the constitutional framework. well you have successfully been able to diffuse the situation you know when you have a new cruciatus i think the biggest challenge for the government was not to use you know the state much or not to follow that process there's a case you look to burn or you know the some of the something happens that it's a bad impression so we have been to fix a little bit fuse the tensions and diffuse the protests but out hurting anyone that's a success then when you negotiate a because there are certain things that you have to accept and the other party has to accept that we have not good negotiated on outside the constitution what ever the did modern we have popular in the constitution and we are today we have to depict the good you know the courts of law given them is the reality and the previous government has not done enough now this government will start a process that will be a little longer let me pick

a little long but ultimately we have to take this issue seriously and we have to basically you know bring the country form in education and health care. iran's supreme leader says the us has failed to reach its goal of dominating but the world opposes every decision president trump has made. and i made the comments the day after washington said it's restoring sanctions lifted as part of the two thousand and fifteen nuclear deal the measure came into effect on monday iran's oil sector is among industries being targeted the reports from tehran. when you look past all the politics what becomes clear is that american sanctions hurt iranian people more than a change iranian government policies american policy some would say trump's brinkmanship has meant economic chaos for iran the value of the iranian ryall has suffered a major fall in the last year adding to high inflation and unemployment concerns.

all of this hurts low income and working people first and foremost they struggle to feed their families because prices for some basic goods have doubled. people's purchasing power has been reduced they talk about their problems. when a customer wants to buy something you can tell the situation some people used to come here to buy meat once a month. to month when it comes to iran u.s. presidents have pursued a policy of containment for decades trying to limit iranians economically militarily and politically in their regional and global affairs even the twenty fifteen nuclear deal that president barack obama championed that gave iran back some of its financial freedoms many iranians saw that is just a softer approach to the same containment policy but by turning back the clock on bilateral ties with iran what president donald trump has done is to show people

here that during his administration there will be no blurred lines between friends and enemies but if hope pushing iranians towards poverty would inspire them to topple their own leaders he'll likely be disappointed previous protests never got big enough all he's apparently done is make people here miserable. do you think mr trump is a crazy man who made the situation in the region drastically worse his involvement in the region and sanctions have made the people hate him i really don't think that he's the one that should be the president of america. maybe good for his own people but not as you do think. it's better not to say anything about his personality everyone knows how. everybody knows. what iran's leaders signed the nuclear deal they said it was the thing to fix everyone's financial problems three years later with american promises of more sanctions than ever before the

best that people here can hope for is that iran can manage to sell enough oil to survive until donald trump has left the white house zain. iran's defense minister to me says his country has begun mass producing its locally designed fighter jet how to me says the air force will soon have the number of jets it needs and still ahead on al-jazeera just a reminder we're waiting for a joint news conference with turkey's president of egypt and his ukrainian counterpart in ankara are expecting comments on the german case we'll bring it to you live plus they would throw a rock in their face they do that with us they're going to be arrested there's going to be a problem why did they shoot. a bank right from donald trump who said it would all of my runs in the caravan headed to the u.s. to be shot.

solution no upfront returns on al-jazeera. welcome back you're watching al-jazeera to recap our top stories turkey's president said he's convinced the order to kill journalists came from the highest levels of the saudi government in an article for the washington post of time but of the one says he does not believe it was king solomon who gave the order. while waiting for a joint news conference with turkey's president to tie a bow to iran does ukraine mean come on in ankara we're expecting comments on the demands to shoot g case and we'll bring them to you soon the story starts. protests

editor with the online news website syria direct she says there is disregard for the humanitarian situation conditions inside the camp are very bad at the moment and it's gotten worse over the past month after a major smuggling route that used to bring basic who'd and medical supplies into the camp was cut are and so at risk being a huge shortage of food medicine and basic items like baby formula that's the balls and those supplies that do still remain there prices are increasing dramatically so a lot of people can't afford what is there a number of sides that are basically have a stake in the rock bands on they've been essentially placing the blame on one another. for not providing aid to the account rather than air facilitating that aid process so you see the jordanian government for example saying look it's

a syrian problem it's syrians and syrian territory you see russian syrian governments and the us led coalition also exchanging blame for allegedly hindering it convoys so it's an issue of basically all sides here not really taking responsibility. at least ten thousand people have been displaced by fighting in the central african republic in the last four days camps were set up for those who fled their homes they've been attacks and at least two people killed doctors without borders has posted pictures which appear to show camps completely burned to the ground former president francois was overthrown by a coalition of rebel groups in two thousand and thirteen since then more than seven hundred thousand people have been displaced and another half a million left the country in two thousand and thirteen seleka rebels overran the capital forcing president francois visit to flee since then thousands of people

colleagues cannot war cannot move properly to find out more people he needs equally very patient that would be willing to come to the hospital but access is not going to be very exciting and going so we're really concerned about that there's two things that are very important for. the palatial very suffering these violence on the one hand the population needs to be protected we need to ensure that there is protection for this population when fighting between different on groups happens that's really essential and on the other hand it is very important that we can have as many you know humanitarian actors as possible responding to the different needs and indonesian diven has died while working to recover bodies from the size of last week's plane crash near jakarta the body of the forty eight year old volunteer diver was found floating in the java sea not clear how he died hundred eighty nine people were killed when the brand new boeing seven three seven belonging to line

critics are calling a constitutional two day the third 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 parliament there 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 for a palace or a say in a swore in mahinda rajapakse as the new prime minister last friday rajapaksa was president for two terms and scrapped term limits of twenty fourteen to try and stay in power but then lost the election he called a year later rajapaksa says he's 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 parliament where they
