well it convenes in about ten minutes peter and you would think one thing no confidence vote would be enough but it wasn't then they had a second one the president still didn't accept it he said both of them were to call conducted. to correct procedures so it looks like we're going to have another no confidence motion today was a very particular angry and he being interviewed by the local media here behind me but they did have a meeting on sunday night all the party leaders that's run away from a single mahinda rajapaksa presidency receded did meet on sunday for the first the first time they met the first time serious cena witnessing that since. since he was fired at the end of october but nothing came of it apart from the promises from the political parties they would behave themselves in parliament

today are those parties any closer to resolving the deadlock the differences that have kept them so far apart here. it doesn't seem so and in some ways there are some positions are getting more entrenched the longer than there are. in power as technically as primeness because only official is that it says he is prime minister even though there's been a vote of no confidence he is conducting parliament he's conducting government business is reduced and of popular tax on petrol for example he's had a police officer who a senior police officer who was investigating crimes of disappearances during the civil war he's been quickly reassigned to all sorts of things happening all russia paxson still says he's able to act as prime minister another party saying no is unconstitutional they do not seem any closer together as a high court hearing a couple of weeks from now supremes court hearing i beg your pardon it may end up

being the supreme court has to finally laid out its burn it will come back to if there are any developments in the meantime thanks very much talks aimed at overseeing a snap election in israel have ended without agreement the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu says he hopes his coalition partners will show responsibility and not bring down the government currently has anyone seen a majority in the parliament stephanie decker has more now from west jerusalem. very confident benjamin netanyahu addressing the israeli public saying that he would be assuming the post of the defense minister but also saying that that decision that he took when it came to a cease fire with hamas was the right one it was a difficult one but he said that the israeli public didn't know all the details of why these decisions are taken basically responding to the criticism that he's been getting from ministers in his government of course for the resignation of abu

during even also criticism from the education minister now actually bennett saying that he's gone soft calling this a left wing government so this was really a message to the israeli public to say keep your confidence in me i am still what is known as a many israeli seen him as mr security and i've done this for the security of the state of israel it is of course very much also political back and forth we are expecting to hear a press conference now just recently announced tomorrow morning that is from naftali bennett to see whether he'll be pulling out of this government if he does then it will collapse in early elections will be called that hasn't happened at the moment so that we're going to have to watch monday morning how things unfold people will tell you that nationally who was keen on early elections also because he's facing corruption allegations but not under these circumstances not when it comes to gaza so i think we're going to have to wait and see how this plays out in the next couple of days but many people will tell you even though this was perhaps an

unpopular decision the ceasefire with have asked after firing four hundred sixty rockets at israel people will tell you when it comes to the polls he remains a popular prime minister and if there are new elections he more than likely will retain that post well the political crisis in israel was triggered when the defense minister lieberman resigned on weapons and withdrew his policy from the coalition he was upset about a cease fire agreement with all groups in gaza fighting started the. last week after a coven is really mission in the us and you know who needs the support of his finance minister moshe cologne and his cool a new party to maintain his government coalition cologne is seen as vital to preventing the votes on the prime minister's leadership mr netanyahu says he has no interest in early elections and is apparently keen to stop the right wing lieberman benefiting from his resignation britain's prime minister to resign may says efforts to remove her from power will be pointless and risk causing delays to break that

because the asians mrs may's critics to return to brussels to demand more concessions for a draft deal to leave the e.u. conservative party opponents are gathering support for a challenge to her leadership but it's unclear whether the forty eight letters of no confidence required to trigger a vote have actually been sent sonia gago now from london. it's been a tough week the prime minister to resign may but she is standing her ground doubling down on the what she says is the best option for the u. k. to leave the european union how would draw a deal she says is the rights one for the country to choose meantime she confirmed that she would be going to brussels in the coming days to meet with the european commission. to finalize those little details that have made this particular negotiation so fraught in the meantime there is still the issue of

all the opposing voices that are within not just her government but her own party don't forget all those resignations that took place last week now there are a group of m.p.'s who are trying to collect enough letters to trigger off a vote of confidence in may they need to get forty eight of those letters and if that happens then that will go ahead and that will cause even more volatility within the government at this particular time the meantime the opposition leader jeremy called in the head of the labor party came out and said that he was not happy with the wood drawled deal and that his government his party would be voting against it what he really wants however and what the leadership of been tentatively pushing towards is another general election over how much success they would have with that is debatable they have consistently been behind the conservative party by

yellow one bell as a symbol of the rallies that paralyzed the territory central business district for more than two months protesters have called for china to allow fully democratic elections in the city up next inside story i'm back in about twenty five minutes i'll see you then. because we're not as we sit. like this being finally. and see them stripped away. in the sand anniversary. the lights that stand up. for human rights. kendry some may deliver breck's it britain's prime minister is fighting to save her job and convince the nation to back her divorce deal with the e.u. and what if there is no deal this is inside story. welcome

to the program i'm richelle carey britain's exit from the european union has finally been agreed to but for exodus far from a done deal the united kingdom is anything but the country's deeply divided leaders who due to sign the trapped occupant in brussels next week but first m.p.'s in london must approve then prime minister theresa may is under attack from her party from parliament from the public are criticizing her for failing to negotiate better divorce terms to go it alone she says it's the only deal that will work but failing to bow to demands to renegotiate risk losing her job conservative party m.p.'s are gathering support hoping to trigger a vote of no confidence and her leadership the leader of the house of commons has

told the prime minister her draft deal needs improving what i'm doing is working very hard to support the prime minister in getting the brics deal at seventeen point four million people voted full and i think there's still the potential to improve on the clarification and on some of the measures within it and that's what time hoping to be able to help with the french finance minister says some british m.p.'s have lied to british people and the dream of leaving the e.u. is a nightmare. you know we can do it obviously each country is free to decide to leave the single market to leave the european union but what brooks it shows is that the economic cost of leaving the single market is quite simply exorbitant and that there are certainly lying and irresponsible politicians in great britain who explained to the british people that would end up in a bright future the truth is that brooks it will end in a nightmare. chancellor says the deal is good for everyone this is going.

to say it's a good deal for both sides nobody was tricked into it but this deal prevents a heart it helps us in europe but it helps britain even more hardbacks it would hurt great britain much more i sincerely hope that there will be some necessary support in the british parliament. of introduce the panel now in stockholm by skype james savage c.e.o. of the local europe he also writes on how her exit affects british people in the e.u. and durham tom broke c. as an author of the author adler of becoming british and dean and professor of law and government law school and finally and st andrews also by skype through like a mini scottish campaigner welcome to all of you drew i want to start with you is the deal as bad as the critics say yeah i really do think it's that is the critics say and i hate to say it's even a bracks a deal because it's really not bracks and it's really only directed in name only it

doesn't allow the united kingdom to become an international player like rex it was supposed to strike their own trade deals and go from there to the same time it also and take back control of their laws but at the same time it also could very well lead to the splitting up in the breaking up of the united kingdom especially in relation to northern ireland and i will kind of back to that point obviously tom i want your thoughts is this deal as bad as as everybody says. we that it is as bad as people say but two years ago i came out and said that when the prime minister was saying backs it means practice it but it wasn't much substance behind it i thought that there wouldn't be any genuine at all at least not in the plans that we would see and i and then part of me is pleased to see that that's come true another part of me is very disappointed to see what's before us and i want to explain in a second why it's so bad i think on the remains side those who want to stay in european union of course they will not like any deal to leave the european union

but the moment britain has a voice at the top table while being subjected to e.u. rules the plan would have a subject to the rules without a say at the table on the leave side so many are upset about this i think because there are many different voices calling for many different things not all of which can be accommodated and the prime minister will have an impossible task of trying to please everyone and she's shown that she's not been able to please anyone it would seem. as i'm james do you do you agree with that what are your thoughts on this this intensely negative response strathfield has gotten i mean is this is this was going to this was inevitable from the very beginning there was it was always there the reason was that he used all of it so easily it would be an accident where there's also at least in the short term a very difficult so that was always going to be something that she was not going to be able to deliver. yet of course while doing what she's doing now which is trying

to all of the really the result of the referendum and sort of hall. she leaves borrowing many of the benefit she she she takes she she did reason. to the e.u. in many respects but without the say so you know it's the opposite that this doesn't in the us and this doesn't leave. the i suppose has drafted you really has been supporting both sides equally i'm a patient. the alternative is that it's crashing out without a deal of the remaining those. stating that you believe so you push this through problem of but it is looking very vocal and james that we've played a little bit of calm some comments from the french finance minister a few minutes ago basically saying that the british people were lied to they were sold a bill of goods and i'm paraphrasing but a lot of people have said that do you agree with that. i think it was quite clear that there were quite a lot of lies told by the campaign the idea that that

membership the european union was costing british taxpayers three hundred fifty million pounds a week and that that money would be able to go to the n.h.s. that was the only with us and the other the obvious lie there was a it was a it was a pretty ill informed campaign and that was saying that there were those people i think what was significant evidence put forward now back to the journalist carol what was there in the guardian who are probably. significant evidence of a wrongdoing on the part of the leak campaign basically that lead to the you've been officially campaign that was very prominent kerry your jury your jury. because you're representing campaign so yeah i think you know we have seen the light we've seen lots of bites on but it's largely a as you know is the case in politics but the lawyers don't believe in the least like seem to be particularly egregious and i think they say that the comments from

the road from the from the french governments have been echoed. by governments around europe who feel what they see happening and through as someone who is prime bracks i want your thoughts on that do you think that people were told that something could happen that just can't happen absolutely not i think the reason why we're not seeing am abraxas like all these campaigners promise is because we have to remember none of these people that campaign for bracket supported drax it none of them have had an big say in the government none of them have been negotiating the deal this bracks it deal has been negotiated by people who supported remaining in the european union it's all the people who can't get all the government government leaders who are civil servants have been in charge of negotiating and selling this deal to the public they're all people that didn't believe in bracks that they're not people who made the arguments and supporting bracks that will take back control of laws were to take back control of our own trade deal strike our own trade deals and be our own global power. i think the reason why we haven't seen a lot of follow through is on what drugs appears supportive because drugs that

years have been people who support drugs that have been completely shut out of the negotiation process it's been conducted completely by people that supported remaining in the european union and that's why i don't think we're seeing a bracks it that the majority of people voted for i can tell by their facial expressions from both james and tom that well both want to get in on that so tom i'll let you go first. well i would respectfully disagree entirely with that within hours of the referendum result nigel farage a very prominent campaigner for leaving dropped out of politics quit altogether wasn't of anything to do with actually delivering the bricks that he think i'm painting for for about a quarter of a century boris johnson michael gove. drops out doesn't even try to become leader of the tory party when then prime minister david cameron stepped down here to basically removing himself from having anything to do substantially with bracks it's as the leader michael gove quickly removed from the leadership contest himself

everyone prominence who wanted it to happen during the campaign were ran like scared little children how it came time to actually putting something together and that said through some may i thought played a blinder in choosing david davis to be a bex a secretary who is the politically charged for the government in seeing through bracks it and then having boris johnson pointed foreign secretary of course both ran away as soon as a deal was to be agreed by the cabinet citing lots of things they don't like but never once being able to provide any plausible alternative to this so there have been senior exit tears have been at the top table michael gove is a member of the government was the co-chair of the official who leave campaign so it's not like a brick to tears had nothing to do with it and we're away a lot of them ran away a lot of them chose not to be part of this and i think that there is a lot of responsibility on them for failing to deliver on the promises that they

made in terms of lying i think that there was mistruths on both sides and i think that there is a wider issue around campaign finance rules that were violated and the need for some further criminal investigation there but i think that that main point about well you know the deal isn't so good and we'll go blame a civil servant doesn't if most blood on its face. james what about that where are the the the people that feel very strongly about bracks and why it why did some of them back away from the table from these leadership roles i think there are various reasons i mean one reason was that they weren't as we're not you're very particularly clear that boris johnson wasn't going to. get the confidence of a lot of m.p.'s to become leader of the party but i also think now that i think beyond the the issue of personalities i think what's been what's become very clear during the press and to go jason is that while many of the representatives have had very strong ideas about what they don't want they haven't been very there about how

to resolve some very key problems in the press and again jason one of one of which is how to appoint a hardcore between northern ireland and the republic of ireland which everyone says they want to avoid but. that requires the problem of this and that's why the maids try to keep the whole of the u.k. within their customs union post perhaps that. because that will help avoid that whole quarter so you know i think you know that there were there were threats it is who were in those positions where they you know where they were able to make a difference to these negotiations david davis was officially that the chief reykjavik o'shea's and he was like no i did recently in recent months but from the very beginning he was that he would be the chief negotiator but the problem was not really personalities the problem was fundamental contradictions a process that they happen problems that we drew the theresa may have has sat and some our supporters have said if you hate what i'm doing so much then where are the better ideas. does she have

a point. i don't really think so at all and i think that. that stands right now i think it's a better idea to leave and leave without a deal than the deal that's on the table i strongly contend that no deal is always better than a bad deal this is current deal right now and try and the u.k. in two inches signed into. bill into the customs union where the u.k. would be able to strike their own trade deals it would get northern ireland a century under dublin brussels rule so i think a better idea than this deal right now is frankly leaving without a deal i think that and i think the point about drugs and here is running away from the negotiation table running away from responsibility i don't think that's fully accurate either they left the table and they left these posts because they were shut out they were either not given the opportunity in leadership contest or they were put in senior government officials positions such as bracks that secretary they were sidelined in the negotiations their job was sell this to the british public it wasn't to actually negotiate the deal so they were leaving the government

out of protest to show that they weren't having any part of this to show that they were being shut out of the deal tom iraq and i think you have an issue with that. well i think he have you have david davis press secretary for his trance and his foreign secretary and then liam fox overseeing trade you know people are the senior members secretaries joining the government in the cabinet so i mean they were not junior if they weren't doing anything for a couple years and they were wasting taxpayer money knowingly surely they had some kind of hand in this you know certainly boris johnson his foreign secretary had at a hand in delivering the kind of practice that and it's just simply true that people ran away from the leadership contest as soon as they could roger pharaoh's was nowhere to be seen boris johnson maybe didn't have the votes from various people that in even trying to get the votes he had people who wanted to make him tory leader didn't even try to press announcement that he was in when even take part so i think that you know they really haven't shown leadership they saw how

difficult it would be to deliver on their promises and they chose it was better to snipe at the sidelines they do something substantive or make a point very quickly on a new deal i think the deal is a very significant problem for its reality and that is we do not have in the united kingdom any infrastructure no system no people in place to organize custom checks and other types of things that would have to happen within months there's been no one hired there is no new agency there is nothing in place to make any of this happen and so it's a kind of we without a deal because well we don't want to be tied into certain things we don't don't like i think is is particularly irresponsible given that the enormous challenges the numerous shutdown that would happen to britain not least no planes would be able to fly over europe from from the u.k. from from the end of march so it would be it's really much worse than i think then when you look at the details and that's been something that davis johnson go and

others have not wanted to talk about the details really it's just makes the whole new deal such an aerial. really unthinkable james am obviously the e.u. didn't want this divorce right this is the u.k. the you didn't want this to happen so you know they're not going to make the negotiations easy the but the person that doesn't want to divorce usually doesn't having said that is the e.u. driving too hard of a bargain and if the u.k. and damaged in this is that bad for everybody i don't think you could accuse the e.u. driving too hard about it they be very consistent throughout in setting in setting out with promises of what they were wrong with what i'm told they said is that we're going to look after ourselves if you want to leave us feeling but we're going to look up our own interests we have a single market that we work very hard to build up over many years and it's a very it's a rules based single market i am and if you want to be hopeful about single market you're going to have to pay the bills and the brits are saying the brits the reason

we want all the benefits of the single market but we don't want to be bound by its rules or by the european court of justice now the europeans that was that was a red line a couple red lines but the europeans have had bad red lines as well and with them it's about protecting the system that they've got and you know they don't want rates of suit benefit from leaving the e.u. but that's not what a little group is issuing but there is want to be and they want to protect the they want to protect the institutions that they've built up and they don't want a situation where it's seen as advantageous to the e.u. and you can get all the benefits but not of the growth of that would be that would be unsustainable for. drew i want to go back to a point that tom made a minute ago that there are there's been these grand talked about about all these ideas of what bracks it should and could be but not a lot of digging down into the details of how you actually make this happen and it's very very soon what of that where are the people that have the nuts and bolts

on how to actually execute something this huge this historic. right i mean i think the people are there they were they if they are they they are there and that's why there's a leadership challenge to the prime minister right now they are satisfied with they aren't satisfied with what's going on they want to put another prime minister in power who actually deliver iraq that they want i'm talking about you're taking a tough negotiations and of course you're going to take a tougher to get negotiation stance anyone should and could take in to talk negotiation stance on something this important but you know the the u.k. is not chopped liver the u.k. has truck could take just as tough as a stance to hurt the european union if they wanted to publicly they could say what's going to happen when the european union doesn't get any of our funding where in that funder of the european union are french farmers going to start riding when they don't get their subsidy is. going to pay subsidies to eastern european countries it's really i think in the u.k. strikes a great free trade deal with the u.s. in the u.s. is still trading on w t o rules with the e.u.

there's plenty of situations where the u.k. comes out of this much much stronger than the european union does and knowing that the europe the u.k. have to be willing to walk away in the deal i think i think that's the most important thing at this point the u.k. needs to get tougher a negotiation bring out that we know the united kingdom is pretty much we necessary a favor we need a deal that helps both sides and had deal european union so tom what what is going to happen and that coming days is theresa may going to survive this is this about her leadership and where the world is a deal going to come from. well it seems clear that there's a lot of anger not disappointment on her own benches we've been hearing poor most of the last week about letters of no confidence being submitted to some graham brady a graduate. calling for a possible no confidence in the prime minister and we were all waiting for this day

after day and none of that's happened some company commentators have said if the if the anti-terrorism a forces in her party can organize forty eight letters they definitely won't be able to organize a better treaty the could be something very soon and i would rule out that you know her leadership is under some some serious challenge if she were to be if she was to lose but if she were to win a vote of confidence then she would be safe for at least another year the tories wouldn't be able to do it again for another year and we may well and she'll be able to try to proceed with her plan but win or lose the no confidence vote i think there's no there's just not votes for the current plan and the new deal seems unless there's some other change the more likely outcome because she's in a minority government her m.p.'s are not a majority she relies on the d.v.d. party and or that are than they get anything through on that she can get some extra

votes from opposition parties there's no support in any of the opposition parties for this plan there are significant minority of her own party is against this and the u.p.a. is out against this so she's going to surely lose votes on this bill and seen that she's going to move ahead with that so there's been no deal i would not rule out if she were to succeed in staying as prime minister which i think none of us have any certainty about i think it could be likely she will she could lose this confidence vote ok this deal is going to fail and if it does i suspect parliament is going to go for another referendum jane wow ok so our question then see you james do you think that this draft deal will go down in flames and do you think there really could be another referendum. absolutely by the questions i mean the if you look at it if you look at the parliamentary representatives very very very hard to think about how to get this deal through one shouldn't rule that out she's

being she has a very tricky situations before and parliaments are to manage to pull through but yeah i think that it's very likely that a combination of her own autocrats its heroes and basically remain as in the rest of the house will vote for this deal that if that happens it's pretty clear also that there is not a majority in the house of commons or no deal situation i think most most m.p.'s most mainstream m.p.'s are of no deal and that a second referendum becomes a way out for those m.p.'s so i wouldn't i think that's a that's hardly likely scenario and if the anything could happen but that is a hobby that is not ok interest same question and the final question do you think that this will go to another referendum do you think that a deal will be arranged right now i don't think they'll be another referendum the united kingdom is not a banana republic two years ago when there was

a referendum the government sent out a leaflet that said they were going to follow through on the vote there i mean i don't think there's reagan votes and i think it's a very very bad precedent for democracy when you have a vote and then two years later decide it's time to do a reading vote so i don't think a referendum will be happening i don't think the majority in the conservatives or the labor party wants that to happen and as of right now i would say it's most likely there be no deal hopefully there's a deal i think there is a deal the needle benefit both sides as the if the current deal is the only option on the table right now so i think it'll be a deal or no second referendum in general do you think that teresa mayes the person that they can't get this through which i like it to be somebody else. look i think of theresa may i think she will survive the vote of no confidence that's my best gas but if she doesn't get this deal through the house of commons i think it's very likely that she'll resign and someone else will step up and deliver an amended deal no deal or white house but i think it i think that the that let the real litmus

test is not on the vote of no confidence it's on getting this deal through the commons and if it doesn't go through the commons i would put my money on trees and there's a james i know you want to get in on that real quick i can tell by your face i have no i mean. i think if there is if it's closing down i think there is a that very very little that suggests that the public will go for an ideal situation it's hardly it's highly unlikely that parliament will allow that to happen but i really think it's very unlikely that the european union negotiated that mr mitchell bonnie's going to is going to allow the. negotiations that have been conducting a painstaking about right to yes i think the very idea of going back to the drawing board and having a renegotiation is very very unlikely ok and that'll be the final word gentlemen thank you so much for this conversation i'm sure we will continue to have this conversation james savage tom franks and sure liquor men thank you for watching as

well you can see the program again any time if you go to our website al-jazeera dot com for further discussion got our facebook page that's facebook dot com ford slash a.j. inside story and you can also join the conversation on twitter or handle as at a.j. and story for me i shall carry in the entire team here and bye for now. a tamil journalist in search of a missing colleague stops at nothing to bring her story to the public. and sri lanka press freedoms are under threat. and some stories can only be told by those who will not compromise on the truth. news from jaffna

part of the viewfinder series on al-jazeera. it's a climb to one of the holiest sites in bhutan. astri seems to defy gravity every city east is expected to complete the pilgrimage to ensure peace and happiness what it became a democracy in two thousand and eight put happiness at the center of all political policy inspiring the u.n. to pass a resolution urging other nations to follow putin's example but how do you measure it brittany's. quantified by simply turning its pursuit into policy bhutan has done what no other country has. i'm a historian say for the people every weekly news cycle brings a series of breaking stories told through the eyes of the world's journalists these three reuters journalists were one of the few journalists in that were actually

doing investigative work join the listening post as we turn the cameras on the media and focus on how they report on the stories that matter the most he buys the rights to those stories but then he never publishes the stories they're listening post on al-jazeera. al-jazeera. swear every single. it was very violent very vicious and terrible. donald trump says he will not listen to jamal g.'s murder tape says divisions deepen within the republican party over

the relations with saudi arabia. you're watching al-jazeera live from also coming up yemen's who's the rebels say they're ready for a cease fire holds missile attacks on the saudi led coalition. no votes in sri lanka where the parliament was set for another no confidence vote on the president's controversial pick for prime minister. also ahead a cool intense reception on the mexican city of tijuana for thousands of central american migrants hoping to get asylum in the u.s. . the u.s. president donald trump says he hasn't listened to a recording of the murder of the saudi journalist because it's too graphic he made

the comments in a televised interview that was taped before the cia briefed the administration on its findings the intelligence agency has reportedly found that the saudi crown prince mohammed bin salma ordered the murder were also in jordan reports now from washington. i did not know for the first time u.s. president donald trump says when he knows exactly what's in the audiotape surrounding the death of the saudi journalist jamal khashoggi it's a suffering tape it's a terrible tape i've been fully briefed on it there's no reason for me to hear it in fact i said to the people should i they said you really should and there's no reason i know exactly i know everything that one of the ten without having to and what happened to reveal this information during an interview he taped on friday the same day that several newspapers reported that according to the cia was killed on orders of the saudi crown prince mohammed bin salim on position during the interview and the white house's position now it's still too soon to say who ordered

the cheese murder i don't know you know who can really know what if the crown prince speaking to you the president of the united states directly lied to you a lot that he told me that he had nothing to do with it he told me that i would say maybe five times in the last two years trump and his son in law jarrett cushion or had grown close to the crown prince they see him as key to their goal of isolating iran into promoting u.s. economic growth but on capitol hill the idea that mohamed bin solomon is a friend of the u.s. is dying i'm going to do whatever i can to place blame where i believe it lies i'm a put it at the feet of the crown prince who has been a destructive force in the middle east embargoed guider without telling anybody of this war and humans got completely out of control he put the prime minister of lebanon under house arrest is clearly this guy's a wrecking ball some in congress say trump's long running hatred of the

intelligence community is keeping him from doing the right thing the president needs to listen to what our intelligence committee has to say what our best professionals assessment is and it's vitally important that this ministration not allow itself to become part of any saudi coverup and while the u.s. . has imposed sanctions on seventeen saudi officials others in congress are pushing for much tougher punishment we need to punish who ordered this who's in charge and really the only thing they understand over there is strength already there are two efforts underway in congress to block arms sales to the saudis not just to end the civil war in yemen but also to send a message to the white house it won't be allowed to ignore the indefensible rosalyn jordan al-jazeera washington while staying with the story rami curry is a senior fellow and professor at the american university of beirut son was a friend of jamal khashoggi he says donald trump is facing a lot of criticism over saudi arabia from the intelligence community in the states

and the u.s. congress. president trump's position i don't like on most foreign policy issues is all over the place it goes up and down and he's factually pretty ignorant about most of these issues and morally he seems to be pretty untethered he doesn't have strong moral convictions is seems to be motivated more by making america great as he says and promoting the business dealings of his family and cronies. and selling of american equipment the really significant dimensions of the cia leak are actually quite extraordinary in my view because you now have a question a way or at least conversation between the cia and the president in making foreign policy you have internal differences serious differences within the republican party and you have clashes between the president and congress which once many in congress by the by and across the aisle bipartisan support to pass legislation to

somehow punish soda rabia even if that evidence is not fully conclusive but if the cia says with high probability or high confidence that they're sure something it means they have actually really specific firsthand information this this is pretty strong evidence of this many dimensions of this now that are quite active in confrontational ways within just within washington let alone between washington and saudi arabia and between the united states and many of the big powers around the world who the rebels in yemen say this stopping drone and missile attacks against saudi arabia the u.a.e. and their allies the group insistence ready for a broad a ceasefire if the coalition quotes wants peace most of the recent fighting in yemen civil war has taken place in the rebel controlled port city of data. well. everyone knows that when saudi arabia started its aggression against yemen we did

not respond for forty days we wanted to show who was doing what we wanted to make sure saudi arabia cannot find justifications if we respond to big however four years after the saudi aggression and after we started using missile attacks and we started to target saudi forces near the border saudi arabia is now portraying its aggression on yemen as if it is just a response to our missile and border attacks therefore today steve ams to once again clarify our position we also announce that we are ready to stop all operations at all fronts to show the world who is doing what and to give peace a chance we want to prove to the world that we want peace. monitoring the conflict for us from nearby djibouti mohammed as far as we know the missiles and the drones are still not flying.

well we haven't we've not hot off any hogs yet since the. statement was made by the whole thing fighters and this is a big deal because it means the purtiest in the conflict in yemen are slowly inching towards. peace talks and once again they ease that faint possibility of a peaceful settlement to the conflict in the yemen the hold is of course these whorls in a response to our request for them from the un special secretary general special envoy to yemen martin griffiths would ask them to cease hostilities to give peace talks a chance they had been refusing calls from the sodium variety coalition early on in the week for. four four four sessions of hostilities because they say they saw as a move or a poor lot by the sudan minority quatloos from tory are on a group. in the so is

a big deal and now they're inching closer to those talks planned for later on in the year in sweden so when it comes to reciprocity the rebels want to get from the saudi led coalition. well a few things for us first of all the lifting of the injured fighters something so that it was already agreed to although there's been no movement on the ground just days ago so that. problem is to airlift up to fifty injured whole thing if itis probably to yemen they also. of course the sodium and autocorrelation and their allies on the ground the pro-government fighters have to stop talking over their positions to hold this architect go back if they're fired they will fire voc but for now they are going to stop. fighting

targeting their opponents with drones and ballistic missiles ok we'll leave it there mohammed thanks very much. people living in tijuana on the mexican border with the u.s. are protesting against asylum seekers from central america thousands of people have a right recently after making long journeys with the hope of crossing over into the u.s. the protesters accuse the new arrivals of bringing with them crime and gang violence al-jazeera is heidi jocasta reports now from. the have no doubt this is not the reception the asylum seekers had hoped for although some residents of t. want to welcome them with open arms these and time migrant protestors occupied a city monument sunday demanding the mexican government register the central americans entering their city by the thousands one of the protest leaders threatened on social media to cut off migrants arms if they are caught stealing from mexicans this woman says she came after seeing the right man post i got it all
