going forward. on that attack and and there are some push back some more. talks. the u.s. and china agree not to impose new tariffs for now as they work to resolve their trade disputes. you're watching al-jazeera live from a headquarters and. also ahead no agreement on climate change on the g. twenty with leaders facing resistance from the u.s. president. not backing down thousands in france take to the streets again to demonstrate their anger about rising it feel to.

mexico's new president is sworn in that he's promising a deep and radical change for the country. hello the u.s. and china have agreed to hold off on imposing new trade tariffs on each other donald trump made the announcement after meeting on the sidelines of the g. twenty summit chinese media say the two presidents decided they will not introduce tariffs after january first that's when the u.s. was planning another two hundred billion dollars worth of levies on chinese goods she agreed that his country would buy more u.s. products the white house has called it a highly successful meeting adrian brown has more reaction from beijing. well the governments of both china and the united states are putting a positive spin on the outcome of these talks but this is not a deal it is a truce

a temporary cease fire because the white house is still warning that if after the ninety day period there is still no agreement between china and the united states on their many trade issues then the united states will impose tariffs on two hundred billion dollars worth of chinese goods that's on top of terrorists that already apply to two hundred fifty billion dollars worth of chinese goods now the chinese foreign minister wang ye says that he hopes it can be more exchanges and visits between the two sides just before the talks president xi jinping said he was very happy to be meeting president donald trump and the best option for china and the united states was cooperation but there remains a fundamental areas of disagreement between these two sides especially in the area of force technology transfer and the fact that the united states says the u.s. companies that want to do business here in china have to enter into fifty fifty joint venture arrangements and then hand over their know how the united states is

saying that has to stop there is one area though i think where president xi jinping is unlikely to yield and that concerns his industrial policy known as made in china twenty twenty five this is his aim to make china a world leader in technologies of the future things like artificial intelligence and robotics but the united states is saying that china will do this by heavily subsidizing the companies involved and it says that has to stop president xi jinping has maintained that it won't lets us speak to our tank in beijing he's a political analyst and investment banker who advises the chinese government on economic and development issues thanks for speaking to us on al-jazeera so it's not really a suspension of the trade war but rather a suspension of the escalation of the trade war was this a best case scenario or has it just fallen sort of for your expectations at least.

no this is actually an excellent outcome given the situations both sides are very leery they have to be able to go home and say that they have accomplished something and i think both of them have but as you pointed out this is a temporary ceasefire in adrian has it completely correct the question that people should be asking themselves is what is donald trump and game is it truly to address this issue of this imbalance of trade or is he trying to remake the world in the image that he sees it and that would be a unilateral world where you know polar world where the u.s. is once again dominant and uses a series of bilateral agreements to in essence keep the world going in the direction of liberal democratic capitalism what do you see jim paintings and game and what is he willing to give up what is he likely to yield on.

well there are some things he's not going to yield on changing the way that the chinese government works i mean this state owned enterprise issue is not going to go away now remember this is a ninety day cooling off period there was one hundred days last year and you're still going to be running into the same impediments china feels that it needs to go ahead that it's just passing the middle income trap level that it needs to develop tertiary economy and they will not allow themselves to be a subjugated by a another nation there's an interest in multi-lateralism of working together with other countries it's a very very different model and a very different tone than what donald trump has been saying and doing all right we thank you very much for speaking to us from beijing. now the g. twenty closed with all the others except the u.s. agreeing to support the paris accord on fighting climate change and they all reached a consensus to fix the world trading system after

a difficult all like talks argentina's president the summit's host called for free trade and an open world. we agreed to modernize the world trade organization to do away with certain restrictions and red tape to try to have a more simple dispute settlement mechanism and there is widespread agreement that when you have a conflict you waste a lot of time and this really undermines the whole process no one doubts that trade leads to development on climate there has also been of agreement to accelerate the process of call up starting in poland next wait there will be a good opportunity to increase and enhance our goals and make sure they are met lucy a new man has more from. the leaders of the world's most powerful economies and emerging economies were able to actually sign an agreement at the end of the g. twenty meeting here in when a scientist which in of itself is considered a major accomplishment it's really

a sign of the times going into this meeting very few people thought that that was going to be possible but in the end they did find common ground on some key issues for example all the leaders believe that it's necessary to look into reforming the w t o or the world trade organization which they believe is no longer really meeting its purpose or its mandate there was language on women's rights on labor reforms of a whole array of other issues in which they did see eye to eye on the very thorny issue of climate change they reached a kind of compromise remember last year president donald trump stormed out of the out of the g. twenty meeting in hamburg saying that he was not willing to sign any kind of agreement in which climate change was described as irreversible this time nineteen of the leaders said that they would do that that they would continue to support the paris climate agreement and donald trump had a paragraph of his own or rather the united states had

a paragraph of its own in which it said that it did not agree with that and it underscored the fact that it had withdrawn from the paris agreement in the end also there was the leadership of argentina's president. who desperately needed some good news especially considering this country's a staunch or very very severe economic crisis unlike also hamburg last year everything went peacefully there were protests out on the streets but not a tear gas canister was shot and that is certainly good news for ticket really after a meeting of leaders who still after all this do not see eye eye to. well france's president has called for an emergency meeting with his cabinet following nationwide anti-government rallies on saturday and the country's prime minister has canceled his trip to poland where he was to attend a climate change summit paris turned into a battleground as protests against president to many when my calls fuel tax escalated with cars set on fire and buildings vandalized they would say to reports

from paris. the yellow vest rebellion once more brought the streets of central paris to a standstill balticon a tear gas and stun grenades were used by the riot police to try and disperse the protesters in a series of running confrontations. this time it was the uk to twelve that was the focus for some of the fiercest clashes the iconic symbol of france occupied and defying the country's most. we had the arab spring and now we are getting there european winter. as the day drew on the violence in the surrounding avenues so police vehicles and cars being torts and even buildings set alight it was meant to have been a peaceful protest a small minority carried out the attacks the rest were demanding the resignation of

president micro yellow that's the bell. will continue not on into the night but into the next week once again those actually become a real threat politically to president michael's ministration from a platform in argentina though he had a defiant message for them you can. no cause just defies that security forces attacked shops. private buildings. or journalists threatened or that. at. the protests were even violent in last week's demonstrations there were more arrests and more injuries it seems that all chance of reconciliation anytime soon david j. to al-jazeera paris well the protests weren't only in paris more than thirty thousand people took part in more peaceful rallies elsewhere in fronts in the

southern city of three hundred firefighters set up roadblocks following protests there and anger against rising fuel prices has spilled into french overseas territories especially the indian ocean island of. a meeting with the minister was cut short on friday as yellow vests protesters demanded president calls for resignation from the miller is in the island's capital same don't need to tell us what we expect today and how the government in paris is trying to defuse the situation in. well people here are saying that the approach by the french government isn't one that will bring them any closer to a resolution and the as you say they continue to call for the resignation of the french president emmanuel mccrone people who are expected to take care of the in front in the later in the day to continue what they say it has often been a more peaceful protest here but they are expected to have

a video conference with the french minister of the overseas territories and they've compiled a list of the demands now they haven't yet released those demands but it is expected to be around a number of issues that deal with the high level of unemployment here in reunion specifically that of young people where the sixty percent of young people don't have jobs but also just the cost of living way because so much is imported into this country everything costs about forty percent more than mainland france so they say these are the major issues that have to be dealt with a traveling around the island we've come from the port that has been shut down entirely for two weeks now no ships coming in or out of this of course of fitting the rest of the island to the main city of atlanta ne way with some of the shops stanbury because there just aren't any products coming in so people you know say if these demands on to listen to they are going to push for a total shutdown of the economy they're hoping that this conference with the french

minister will lead to some sort of resolution at least their demands being heard all right from as a member thank you. so heard on al-jazeera hungary's government clamps down on academic freedom by forcing the closure of an american university and reviled by many but revered by some as a patron of the world uncomfortable legacy of a colombian drug lord twenty five years after his death. in coming winter is about to show another face you may not like to see if you're in germany there's been a cold pool here city of east europe for quite a long time that attempts have dropped significantly negs is plenty of chatter of the top when it's deep the cold air that means snow we certainly don't snow running

ard. hello again the top stories on al-jazeera the u.s.

and china have agreed to hold off on imposing new trade tariffs on each other donald trump jinping made the announcement after meeting on the sidelines of the g. twenty summit the french prime minister has canceled his trip to poland for a key summit on climate change following the third week of protests over rising fuel prices paris turned into a battleground on saturday with cars torched buildings vandalized. mexico's new president has been sworn in with a promise to end corruption poverty and violence. lopez obrador is the country's first leftist president and over seventy years home and reports from mexico city on the populous leader widely known as. he sent the message even before his swearing in arriving in an old volkswagen jetta things were going to change at the third attempt under his money to a lopez obrador became an excuse president the country's first leftist leader in decades. he got straight to the point

thirty years of free trade policies and growing privatization were outs. and the new liberal policies have been a disaster a calamity for the country. and to clean up would be good seem appealing expressing if you ask me to explain one phrase the plan of the gunman i'll say wipe out corruption and if unity he says the money saved from cleaning up graft with clinicians social programs. things it's easy to be is it those who will be waiting for the next cruise main plaza. which now we're going to be listening to our president that's the change i voted for and why i am here it's the first time in my forty six years that i've come to this type of event. is that indigenous leaders came to it after a ritual cleansing he gave the crowd what sounded more like a wish list than a speech this is fun for me so this is my promise for starters first class health

system for free like in canada the scandinavian countries but many analysts say that for all the promises his plans remain threadbare and the sums just don't add up how do you put together on the one hand that of all the measures are going to cost a lot of money we are not going to raise taxes that's why that what the government has announced and he says that everybody is going to everything is going to be paid off by cutting corruption but corruption and cutting corruption it's not only a matter of political will it's a matter of constructing effective institutions and so far in the measures that he has announced there is no need. that's a priority of the new government it's a common criticism he supports is his would is enough now is a lot of hope mr lopez obrador won by a landslide but this one so desperate ration for change more than forty percent it

means a poor the murder rate is the worst on record and people are tired of the sunni never ending corruption. he makes just a bit of headway on those issues too many. don't hold with. exclusively. it's two months since the journalist. last seen alive on october the second he entered the saudi consulate in istanbul never to be seen again the next day turkish security sources said they had information he had been killed inside the consulate and his body dismembered saudi arabia rejected the claim as lies well turkish media published images of fifteen members saudi team that arrived in istanbul on the same day she disappeared and said the group was at the consulate when the journalist the rived from this point onwards evidence linking not only saudi arabia but crown

prince mohammed bin sandman to death has been piling up in the middle tobar the saudis finally admitted he had been killed and said it was an accident turkey insists it was murder and on november the tenth it shared recordings from inside the consulate with britain france germany the us and the saudis themselves five days later riyadh charged eleven suspects for the killing but to this day the kingdom denies the crown prince was in any way involved well jim murder overshadowed much of the g twenty summits saudi crown prince appeared isolated early on as speculation mounts up. about his alleged involvement in the killing but as alan fessler reports day two was quite different. the saudi crown prince has had a busy day to at the g. twenty he met one on one with the argentinean president and there was an extended meeting with president putin of russia the man who gave him

a high five on friday. turkey's president at the one revealed the case of jamal khashoggi it was raised only once in meetings with all the leaders and it was by the canadians he said the saudi crown prince gave what he described as an unbelievable response i asked him what he meant. did. the sidey regime first tonight as and then tried to distort facts and finally admitted to this murder turkey has adopted a very determined attitude which is help disclose the so sure we have never seen this as a political issue and shall never do so for us this incident was a horrendous act of murder and shall remain so. the canadian prime minister said he also raised the month when he came face to face with the saudi royal i also. spoke directly to the crown prince to highlight our concerns and our need for better answers on the killing of to show. and also the need for an immediate ceasefire

and humanitarian aid to go to yemen which is the largest humanitarian catastrophe going on in the world right now and is a subject that we brought up repeatedly in various conversations as the pressure grows in the u.s. to take firm action against saudi arabia a report in a u.s. newspaper the wall street journal claims to seen details of eleven messages the saudi royal sent his closest adviser who oversaw the so-called hit team in istanbul the newspaper says this led the cia a america's intelligence agency to conclude mohammed bin someone likely ordered the murder but america's secretary of state says they still stand by the crime prince i have read every piece of intelligence that is in the possession of the united states government and when it is done when you complete that analysis there is no direct evidence linking him to the murder of

the saudi crown prince was never going to be ignored or shunned i think gathering of the world's twenty largest economies their diplomatic niceties to be observed the real test will be in weeks to come as countries reexamine their relationship with saudi arabia and the man who is effectively in charge. at the g twenty. well the u.s. defense secretary james madison's there is no clear evidence that implicates the saudi crown prince and murder when it comes to the kurds shogi murder. we have every expectation that whoever was involved in this whether directly involved or directing the murder is going to be held to account that is our country should we do not have a smoking gun i have except for the last twenty four hours i have seen all the intelligence we have we do not have a smoking gun that the crown prince was involved security is tight in mauritania
