6:00 pm
human rights. zira. i am now i'm fully back to go this is the news hour live from our headquarters in doha coming up in the next sixty minutes the in . an emergency cabinet meeting in france after the worst civil unrest in decades protests over rising fuel prices have turned into the most difficult challenge for president to mannion mccall. it's two months since the murder of jamal khashoggi a case that continues to overshadow the saudi crown prince's diplomatic engagements
6:01 pm
opposition groups have denounced mom had been simon's visit to mauritania also this hour a trade war ceasefire the u.s. and china agreed to a pause in their bitter trade dispute after talks at the g. twenty in argentina i'm joining us roscoe with the sports day until a welder keeps his w.b.c. heavyweight title after his fight with tyson fury ends in a draw we'll have the reaction coming up in the next hour. i am. thank you for joining us it's a popular rebellion that began three weeks ago spread on social media and has exploded into the worse for decades in france for the third successive saturday's so-called yellow vests you will tax protesters rock the center of paris to a standstill riot police fought running battles as cause we're told shop windows
6:02 pm
smashed and the aga tree off dogged in graffiti is the most serious challenge to the eighteen month presidency of a monument coal is returned from the g. twenty summit in argentina to discuss imposing a state of emergency while we have two reporters covering this story will be speaking to some of the mill on the french island of reunion in just a moment they've also been protests but for us that speak today in paris david the french authorities seem to have been caught off guard by saturday's escalation in violence in man in my call went straight to the on the trail guys we saw upon returning to argentina what he said was the government's message after yesterday's violence. well publicly he said absolutely nothing so far no public statement for him since his feet hit french soil but no doubt privately an awful lot the first thing he did was talk to veterans of the up to tree of which is essentially being vandalized by a small group of protesters on the fringe of the other vast rebellion and then he
6:03 pm
moved on to look at the to talk to the firemen and to the police who were holding that front line doing so many hours of of variety and while he was there walking down the street towards them there were shouts of bravo there were more boos bravo and so it wasn't a mixed reception perhaps i can call it like that but then he went straight on to the emergency session of the cabinet and as you said there was on the table one of the options was to call a state of emergency but we don't know the result of that there's been no public statement whatsoever and everybody is expecting a statement from the president in my craw at some stage but he's indicated that he won't be speaking to the media any time soon so they will have to wait and see ok result of that meeting the riots the violence stay that seem to have overshadowed
6:04 pm
the spontaneous protest movement of the yellow vest what is a strategy now going forward will they continue with these demonstrations. it's clear that you can't ask anybody individually because they don't have any leaders it's a very amorphous structure so organized through the social media but everybody i've spoken to with the yellow vests who i'm sure was an ordinary member of that rebellion and protest say yes they're continuing with their protests and there will be at another a call to paris to the streets of paris to demonstrate against the policies of president mark wrong which they say are falling unfairly on the shoulders of the poor and those people in the country and they keep calling him a present of the rich the presence of businessmen president of the elites who doesn't care about what his policies are doing to the ordinary people of france so yes they are going to continue with their protests but how to separate them out
6:05 pm
from that small group of anarchists extreme left extreme right who are the real perpetrators of the violence that is something that the authorities are going to have to decide and perhaps the leaders if there are any of the other better universe rebellion thank you for that david chase a line for us in paris and the anger has spread to franco this territory's let's talk to on the island of reunion in the indian ocean. summer. protests as they like in paris on saturday were also demanding that president michel resign the overseas minister and the stand has just addressed the protesters in reunion what's come out of it. will be protested. via video conference speaking to some of them within the government buildings just behind us and of course he appealed these protests to come to an end an end to the the clock regular conflict up on the main near cocoa grove just as
6:06 pm
well as the one at the main court which is going on for two weeks now and it's prevented from coming in and out of reunion she'll while in reunion a few days ago until that time you're allowed to come to understand the issues you call your i think the protest was brought up a wide range of issues everything from the economy the cost of living the high cost of living the high unemployment rate but a french territory they also think that that i did not have all of the things governed from a close thing that they wanted to be active in decision making and i could too many years decisions have been made in paris and not involving people here the only thing we could do the minister that she has an hour to respond to their demands i could give a concrete response a something that we can work well and if you doesn't of doing the act in time we also need going to continue with these protests they are currently meeting just
6:07 pm
behind us to decide on the way forward we know many of these protests have been have been us one ten years the only thing that will continue but they do want to be thought on what exactly they do yes and it is only reunion some of the it's not just about. tax increases it's also a number of other issues tell us about the conditions there for the people living on that island. unemployment of course while it continues to be a very big issue especially all the young sixty percent of young people on this island don't have jobs they're also concerned about the disparity between the rich and the core thing of the poor you know a thumping because of the high prices of who would feel they even went into the issue of education saying that they want a full of the smell that caters to all the people of reunion specifically and not one that is a general cringe to look at they think that these are all if you can have to be dealt with everything from education to the minimum wage being raised as well as
6:08 pm
working conditions are growing really to the people here while these issues around the fuel costs have created a catalyst around these protests even issues that have gone on for many years you know people in the population who killed marginalized a thing is that their concerns on television now look this is the opportunity to raise their mind to have these issues well and i think the best way to do it is to show support of the yellow grant and to continue protesting do they on the island of reunion some of the blame emanuel specifically for the hardship they're facing or is it this government and previous french governments that are being held responsible for the conditions that people face. only what was interesting to hear from the militia minister although of the over territories nicaraguan is that she thinks that she's doing hope part but the local
6:09 pm
government here in reunion the represent here also have to do what is necessary so we did your sort of shift the blame to some extent in terms of who's responsible for the hardships that people here are facing we certainly have got calls from people who call the money will not cross to resign thank you or blame the french government as a whole called the difficulties that they're faking it of course became the issue comes up about a decision making and the role that people here play they would say they want a more inclusive environment they want to play a bigger role in the decision making but certainly what they're doing in paris is a situation that they're wanting to support across france in fact and they think certainly the government needs to be held to account thank you very much for that summit in sundin a reunion thank you for bringing us up to date with the latest there now my calls political opponents often dismiss him as a president of the rich and now his economic policies seem to have made him deeply
6:10 pm
unpopular even among the people let's take a look at some of those policies that led to mass protests before the so-called yellow vests demonstrations so last year mark or labor laws making it easier to hire and fire workers that kicked off the first major challenge of his presidency as many civil servants walked out of the job and early this year university students protested mccall's education reforms against his efforts to tighten selection process for those entering french universities around the same time railway workers knowledge months are rolling strikes against his decision to overhaul the state's railway company the s.n.c.f. well let's now speak to danielle was a member of parliament from the opposition party. france unbowed which is a far left political party in science thank you very much for being. with us from paris you know looking from the outside it feels like the french are always protesting about something is there anything that a french president can do that you can accept the world around france is changing
6:11 pm
why won't the french accept to go through some of these reforms. because it's not about environment it's not about true policy to face climate change it's about equality and yes the french people are no one to protest against inequality it's a protest against fiscal inequality it's a protest against economy inequality it's a protest against for billions that were taken from the pockets of the poor people and were given free of anything to the richest to the world views in this is a society and that's the very reason why people are onto the street people very are working people who are fed up with the discourse with the propaganda of a government who can hear the anger of the people who keeps going straight to the wall and pushing everybody aside not listening to the opposition to the parliament
6:12 pm
that's why the people are protesting and this is right out of our tradition of legally tyrion isn't and through revolutionary tradition you talk about hard working people who are fed up but the pictures we saw the images we saw from paris on saturday didn't look like hardworking people to to many people the violence during these protests has been blamed on extreme elements on both the right and left of the spectrum who are trying to sabotage it seems these demonstrations by the so-called elevate so how do you separate the legitimate demands of the yellow vests and the ana kist who want to just cos trouble. i think of course the media are focused on the people who in paris organize those violent opposition but i think it's supported through to remind people outside that the movement has been mean for weeks now and i was for. as for me i was in the
6:13 pm
morning yesterday morning in the north of friends in vali which is not a place known for revolutionary uprising but where they were a peaceful protest against the tax reform and they get smacked around policy and i met not just in van day but all over the country those aren't working people those pension years those student was just saying we just can't keep going like that the head of the month now the first day of the month we already don't have enough money to feed our of our kids how do you want us to that money to pay for the tax so the reality of this movement is much wider than the pictures of the that were taken and of course the media focus on that because it's such an alyson and they like to focus only about i think i have to we are now the government i'm sorry to
6:14 pm
interrupt you but i mean that yeah of course nobody is supporting those. of course everybody and the majority of the people reject violence and that's what i wanted to focus there was over one hundred thousand people demonstrating in the government record my that there were more people demonstrating all over france and the very much already the vast majority of those demonstrates a well peaceful protest and what happened in paris is also something that should be asked to the government is that possible that we have so many police forces that were. asked to supposedly secure the places out how. big amount of police forces were called in order to secure those places and they were unable to actually. get smaller amount of people arrested the people who are doing damage is so i think we should ask the all
6:15 pm
minister but why this security process was so. ineffective inefficient that the government responsibility for what happened so that's the main issue but i really want to repeat our the very vast majority of the people demonstrating yesterday all over one hundred people live in the government has said one hundred thirty thousand people demonstrated and the very vast majority of them were peaceful but the response of the government like saying we will not change anything is of course increasing the tension increasing the hanger of the people who are really fed up of this government thank you very much for speaking to a century of used daniel o'donnell far left french a member of parliament joining us there from paris thank you for your time and plenty more ahead on this al-jazeera news hour including climate change has never been worse u.n. climate chief. negotiators from two hundred countries meet
6:16 pm
a hole and. plaster radical. change promised by mexico's first leftist president in decades and in sports the toronto raptors become the first n.b.a. team to win twenty games this season joe will tell you about their latest try. it is two months since journalist was murdered in the saudi consulate in istanbul tony but he looks back at how the investigation has unfolded so far and the continuing fight for justice by her family and friends. these days they keep a part van in front of the entrance to the saudi consulate in istanbul to stop prying eyes for the last eight weeks saudi arabia has been unable to stop the world from knowing what happened inside this building on october the second despite the saudi lies and deception the planning and intent family and friends are determined
6:17 pm
on bringing the man who gave the order for jamal khashoggi murder to justice the fight for justice for the cheese continue and to continue of course at the end until. everybody will be satisfied that justice and now i am ready for it very fortunately now the problem the issue is ensuring internation sure it's an it's a university sure now the saudis say five an amen part of the fifty man so-called hit squad are facing the death penalty in saudi arabia for the murder six others a charge with related offenses although western intelligence agencies believe all the evidence circumstantial and otherwise points to the saudi crown prince mohammed bin salman as the architect of the killing some diplomats believe he has got away with it was executing five. people who are.
6:18 pm
killed. false will towards they have done and the other. seven or a six remaining six there will be watchful religion and they will close the case turkey and the rest of the world is shocked by the barbarity of the murder president recep tayyip erdogan and turkey's government has leaked details of audio recordings from inside the consulate before joining and after the killing investigators revealed phone calls made to riyadh with one of the hit squad saying tell the boss the deed is done without stating his name the turks have made it obvious. the boss is mohammed bin salmond but turkey's options are limited by a lack of saudi cooperation and a lack of will from the international community the saudis are using the vienna convention on diplomatic immunity is as reasons not to hand over the suspects to turkey no nor state you her own citizen to another state for foreign investigation
6:19 pm
so the issue here is is this really think so different. mr gibson will come to an end in turkey but you should make this issue to international level because the mission the investigation. will be a date and that is the only way this case can be investigated fairly and openly but turkey's government mindful of its situation regarding human rights and treatment of some of its own citizens is reluctant to call for a u.n. investigation and western governments seem disinterested as could be seen at the g twenty summit in argentina some politicians have short memories and forgiving natures when it comes to trade deals it now seems likely that the real culprit behind this crime is going to get away with it and that the murder of your market shortly will become a paragraph in history in a bloody region and that's
6:20 pm
a sad indictment not only of saudi arabia but also of the international community which is that by and watched and done nothing tony burke the al-jazeera istanbul and the man in the center of it all the saudi crown prince is in mauritania for a short visit mom had been summoned was great in the capital by the mauritanian president and a god of honor but similarly to what happened in recent visits a lot of capitals wanted in salman's presence in mauritania spots demonstrations linked to his alleged involvement in jamal khashoggi zinaida one hour from santa will bend in one chart. he has been received by mauritania president mohammad well our blood and they had some talks are the airport and then they went to the palace we don't know until yet if they will held a press conference or not all they will just have a press release. mauritanian author it is our very pleased by this visit and
6:21 pm
they welcomed the crown but we can hear some other voices that didn't will come the pram. and we can notice for example a. press release from. the opposition party is the biggest opposition party. in mauritania very published a press release saying that the prince is not welcome at all. doing good things for saudi arabia relating to its images and that he is responsible from killing. thousands of people are marching in belgium calling for action from governments around the world to reach the goals set out in the paris climate agreement the rally has been passing the european commission headquarters it's being held as the
6:22 pm
clock twenty four summit is getting underway in poland there the u.n. climate chief has warned that the impact of climate change has never been worse envoys from almost two hundred nations are at the event to address a problem the paris climate agreement signed in twenty fifteen was supposed to hold average temperatures increases to less than one point five degrees celsius but the u.s. has since withdrawn from the deal leading to concerns about its viability and the world is continuing to experience more extreme weather events as nick rock explains . thousands of scientists politicians and leaders of industry meet in poland for perhaps the most important climate conference there's ever been the challenge to unite on how to implement the paris agreement of two thousand and fifteen which aims to shift the world away from fossil fuels and to limit the rise in global temperatures to between one and a half degrees celsius and two degrees celsius that agreement is jus to come into force in less than two years time in twenty twenty but
6:23 pm
a report from the united nations shows that the world is completely off track heading instead towards three degrees celsius and that is twice the recommended rate of warming and as this year has proven time is on no one side. you know well currently one degree celsius warmer than pre-industrial times the fingerprints of climate change and it's human impact becoming increasingly apparent. and not just in the developing world. the worst wildfires in california history last month led to multiple deaths and extraordinary destruction they had. demonic plants is the only way i can put it but some guys are gone you know our lives everything we have is gone now more and bigger wildfires are predicted around the world as temperatures increase. right now in afghanistan drought is tightening its stranglehold thousands of families have lost everything there are reports of children being sold off to pay off debt and buy food. across the world drought will
6:24 pm
worsen with increasing famine as heat waves strengthen the. living seas have led to more ferocious hurrican cyclons forming over the world's oceans and when they hit land from florida to the philippines the effects are catastrophic especially as rising sea levels mean even more destructive storm surges. ice sheets are retreating ecosystems are under pressure. and all the while greenhouse gas emissions have reached record levels at a time when scientists say they need to be radically reducing. these impacts. maybe increase as we go toward one hundred five degrees and further increase for two degrees so what one point five degrees allows us is to keep the rate of change at the nub of that makes these intakes more manageable for society as this is devastation in the united states comes as a u.s.
6:25 pm
government report projects losses to the u.s. economy in future decades hundreds of billions of dollars every year one man disagrees i don't believe it now no i don't believe it believe it or not the science says this is no time for action. failure to act means more disasters and emergencies in their pollution that could cost the global economy as much as twenty one three million u.s. dollars by twenty fifty. since those euphoric scenes in paris three years ago there's been plenty of backsliding on national promises to reduce c o two emissions there is now a tremendous gap between what's required and what's being done and experts say that path leads to widespread poverty and global insecurity the gap these to close in poland over the next fortnight now the un report warns will pass a temperature rise of one of the hoff degrees celsius within twelve years unless
6:26 pm
countries slash their emissions by five times their planned amount and that will impact hundreds of millions of people in every continent on the globe exacerbating the risk of drought floods extreme heat and poverty those who know the sun's they say the urgency of this climate conference in poland cannot be overstated the israeli police say they have enough evidence to charge prime minister binyamin netanyahu and his wife with accepting bribes they're accused of fraud and breach of trust in dealings with israel's largest telecoms operator that's now denies any wrongdoing in this and two other cases against him they speak to him in jerusalem for some tasha this is a third time police have recommended charges against that's now tell us more for us about this case and the investigation overall. this is a wide ranging corruption investigation that has plagued prime minister benjamin
6:27 pm
netanyahu and his wife since last year and it does appear that his legal woes are mounting this is the third time as you mentioned that the police have recommended he be indicted in this particular case it involves an israeli company it's called bezdek telecom police allege that netanyahu doled out regulatory favors in exchange for him and his wife receiving favorable coverage on a website the company owned in february police recommended he be indicted in two other corruption cases one that netanyahu allegedly excepted almost three hundred thousand dollars in bribes from israeli businessmen and the other that in an attempt to solidify additional positive coverage of himself that he. with a it when one with the largest newspaper in israel that he promised he would rival
6:28 pm
i'm sorry he promised that he would curtail the circulation efforts of the newspapers rival now as he has from the onset netanyahu has called this a witch hunt he has said that the police recommendations have no legal basis and this investigation will not amount to anything he is expected to make some comments this evening at a hanukkah candle lighting ceremony we don't expect the comments to be regulatory it's worth noting these are simply recommendations by the police only the attorney general has the ability to hand down indictments and that is something that could take months and considering this investigation has been ongoing since last year it really could take many more months for us to to know what's going to become of the police recommendations thank you natasha the name live for us in jerusalem still ahead on this al-jazeera news hour try. in orbit another ten speed made at sprinting human tissue in the international space station and not

6:31 pm
media coverage what part of this case you get through your thick head is hamas a terrorist organization the only thing that you're going to say is what we want and if you don't say it when i go let you speak it would be very hard for her ordinary americans to know that they're being deceived the occupation of the american mind on al-jazeera. until now the coverage of latin america most of the world was a cover included todd's tragedies of quakes and that was it but not sure how couple feel how they look how they think and that's what we do we go a long way five and a half months of demanding it to an education system that was introduced to. latin america as europe has come to fill a void that needed to be filled. you're
6:32 pm
watching the news on al-jazeera with me for a reminder of raw top stories this hour the french president has held an emergency meeting with his cabinet following saturday's nationwide protests against rising fuel prices earlier on sunday a man you might call went to assess the damage in paris caused by the violence which saw more than one hundred thirty people injured and four hundred arrests it. sounds europeans crown prince says in mauritania the opposition there is denouncing the visit saying mohamed bin soundman has damaged the interests of muslims worldwide it's urged supporters to condemn to the murder of journalist. and israeli police say they have enough evidence to charge prime minister binyamin netanyahu and his wife's are with accepting bribes they're accused of fraud and
6:33 pm
breach of trust in dealings with israel's largest telecoms operator it's now denies any wrongdoing in this and other corruption cases against him. donald trump has agreed to delay increasing trade tariffs on chinese imports at least for the next ninety days u.s. and chinese presidents met at the g. twenty summit on saturday and said they will use the time to try to resolve their differences the u.s. was planning to boost its own two hundred billion dollars worth of chinese goods from next year china has agreed to buy what's described as a very substantial amount of american farm energy and industrial goods are china correspondent adrian brown has more 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
6:34 pm
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 has says that he hopes there could 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 forced technology transfer and the fact that the united states says that 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
6:35 pm
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. well i saw speak to who is a professor former professor of at picking university and author of why china's economy collapsed he joins us live from new york thank you very much for being with us on al-jazeera is a trade truce almost as good as a deal or are they just kicking the can down the road i think they're just kicking the can down the road for now because the the sides that they're taking are really different and the gap is wide the u.s. has wanted to contain china for quite some time over
6:36 pm
a decade already and it is manifesting in more aggressive stances with china. and so this is just a temporary preview in my opinion i think that it would be very difficult for china to meet a lot of the demands and even if they did the chinese the americans will probably come up with more things to gripe about and continue to challenge china to back down in a whole host of areas so clearly it's not just trade it's not just intellectual property and it's you know not just industrial policy either i think it's everything that includes currency policy and military security issues as well so who has the upper hand right now and which of the two countries benefits from this or any. well i believe the u.s.
6:37 pm
has the upper hand given that the us is the world's superior military power and has the world reserve currency so those are two very important leverage is that the u.s. has against china and they can manifest in the lot of ways so i think that for the time being it's good for china that they have some breathing room but again it's very short lived i don't know what they can possibly come up with that will make it lasting but but we shall see because the cost of not coming to some kind of agreement will be extremely costly the chinese have said they will buy more u.s. products more i go to cultural products more energy products how much of a concession is that for china and will it a piece a trumpet ministration. well i think it certainly is a reasonable concession for just over
6:38 pm
a dinner talk right. all the other issues require a lot of negotiating all the finer points and so that can't happen over dinner. even ninety days is actually an incredibly short time given that if you look at other agreements that have been signed between countries they can often last years so this would be incredibly speedy if this happens. and like i said i highly doubt that. the americans will say their are satisfied with whatever china comes up with in the end of ninety days and so. you know i'm not terribly hopeful at this as you said it's not just about trade there are a host of other issues that have contributed to these tensions between china and the united states can they resolve them at the presidential level at the level of
6:39 pm
trump and she or you know do you think it's going to take much more than that i think it'll take a lot more than that. i think that if it was just left to trump. it probably would have ended along lines of trade unfortunately we've seen that the americans have tied it to geo political issues whether it's taiwan south china seas and other areas that are not economic and this is largely coming from the broader washington. establishment there are many policy makers at think tanks and other places that have a much more hawkish view that they want to take against china and these views certainly filter into the trump administration thank you very much for speaking to us author of why china's economy collapsed joining us from new york thank you for your time we appreciate it. the new president of mexico has been sewn in with
6:40 pm
promises of radical change to combat corruption poverty and the drugs gang war and to get rid of the usual presidential limousine and dress ranya lopez obrador widely known as amarillo is the first left wing mexican president for more than seventy years john home and reports from mexico city. 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. because. he got straight to the point thirty years of free trade policies and growing privatization were out last. week 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 see wipe out
6:41 pm
corruption and if unity he says the money saved from cleaning up graft with clinicians social programs. 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 listen 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 in the speech this is from 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 they are the government
6:42 pm
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 to be. build in as a priority of the new government it's a common criticism to his supporters his would is enough to know there's a lot of hope mr lopez obrador won by a landslide but there's also a desperation for change more than forty percent of mexicans are poor the murder rate is the worst and record and people are tired of the seemingly never ending corruption. he makes just a bit of headway on those issues too many that could be enough john holdren. exclusively thousands of opposition supporters in georgia have protested against
6:43 pm
the results of wednesday's presidential vote saying there was widespread electoral fraud they say it helps the ruling party candidates win the runoff robin force a walk i was at the protests in tbilisi. georgia's main opposition party and its coalition partners are holding this rally to send a message to the government that they do not recognize the results of wednesday's election. really an independent candidate with the backing of the governing party win by a large margin she picked up sixteen percent of the vote compared to her main rival grigolo a sad state now of i should say and his supporters believe that the election was marred by numerous violations including the creation of fake voter id is the simulation and violence towards their party activists and a very controversial initiative that the government announced in if a few days before the second round runoff votes this week in which they offered to
6:44 pm
relief to six hundred thousand georgians and now the opposition and also made means appends in n.g.o.s believe that this was pretty much vote buying on a massive scale so what they're calling for the opposition is early parliamentary elections but that looks like an unrealistic scenario unless they can get huge numbers of people onto the streets over the coming days it doesn't look likely at the moment especially given the international community has already given its support to sell amazing rubbish really but they also notes that there were serious problems with this election process. and they also point out these monitoring groups who oversaw this election that it was not just the government but the opposition against in hate speech and in a very negative campaign situation rather than focus on important platform issues
