9:02 pm
this is the first time they've met says to thousand and sixteen. u.n. envoy martin griffiths has praised a prisoner swap deal agreed between the two sides but said the political process to and the war will take time because institutions are rose. the fragmentation of a country. is enormously so. we must work. before we lose control of the future of the earth is who control most of yemen said they were willing to make concessions hoping the talks in stockholm would lead to a comprehensive peace plan. we heard the other parties are serious this time for humanitarian and security situations require all of us to come together and seek a solution we really want to deal with the prisoners exchange deal is
9:03 pm
a small step forward in a complex political reality most of these government representatives live outside yemen that influence has why did it lined says the who things took over the capital in two thousand and fourteen but they remain determined there. must hand over their weapons before there is a final deal on said. it's twenty two sixteen and nothing more they should respect international community well they should surrender their nations and myside that they're used to attack that the yemeni people and their own countries and that then that there will be no settlement no solution they should withdraw from this additional state would end the hand-bag institution of the states to the legitimate government the two parties remain divided over who should run the port of her data it's a vital lifeline for yemen's food imports who think who control the area say they
9:04 pm
are willing to let the united nations oversee operations of the port the saudi u.a.e. backed government warns if the talks fail it will resume an offensive to capture the city in the meantime eight agencies are hoping the talks make progress so they can deliver aid to millions of yemenis on the verge of famine. while the political divide remains the biggest obstacle to any of the human conflict the international community insists the talks here in sweden are crucial if you for the yemenis to end the war. the tunnel. earlier we spoke to mohammed abdul was the country director for yemen at the norwegian refugee council he says even if the water stopped today it would take decades to repair yet you feel that the negotiation negotiation that is starting in stock and the move in the right
9:05 pm
direction and the fact that the parties to the conflict accepted to go to the negotiation table gives us a lot of confidence that. we will be late for the end of the tunnel as you know with all of this this deal. you material station is going to get worse it's almost hard to imagine it getting worse isn't it those numbers which i just read out are are extraordinary is there enough assistance ready to come in we're talking about access being a problem but are there donors willing to help if they got the money and the resources ready to go to tell you one thing that. yes assistance is there but human turbulence we are facing. challenges to reach the people in need but the most important thing. for us is the fact that this is a humanitarian situation that we prevented people in yemen have suffered massively
9:06 pm
for more than three years in addition to the direct attacks and civilians by warring parties millions of human lives are suffering from hunger and cholera. and the worst thing is that this is a catastrophe that is manmade but can be prevented by ending this conflict. it's going to take years isn't it to turn around i was just thinking if the war ended tomorrow and suddenly the ports were open a port was open and how data was open and all the aid that comes in goes in there i mean people are in such an awful state it's going to take years to turn around it's going to take years it. because the whole economy has collapsed in the public that has collapsed. much needed by. by the by the population but more than but. a concerted effort to revive the economy which is. on its knees right now.
9:07 pm
to the murder of you know there is growing pressure on the white house to hold the saudi crown prince responsible for the killing of top republican senators a meeting on thursday to discuss ways to punish riyadh for the murder of the saudi journalist after a bipartisan resolution was introduced which specifically named mohammed bin someone as complicit in the killing it also says he is liable for atrocities committed during the war in yemen which saudi arabia entered in twenty fifteen. on capitol hill for us to talk to this one there is real momentum here rosen and this is the one thing i keep noticing the amount of developments which come out of where you are in the congress which are pushing this forward. that's because there's a growing number of senators on both sides of the aisle who believe that the u.s.
9:08 pm
is reputation for defending human rights and for standing up for u.s. persons both citizens and those who live in the united states has to be protected and certainly jamal khashoggi was a u.s. resident he was the father of three u.s. citizens he was a journalist at a newspaper based here in washington and he was well known to many in the city and so this is very much something that affects things that and issues that matter greatly to people on capitol hill this is also perhaps the culmination of nearly two years of very quiet pushback against what could be described as the foreign policy of donald trump there was consternation when he decided to pull the u.s. out of the u.n. climate accord there was real concern especially among democrats when he decided to pull the u.s. out of the iran nuclear deal but when it touches on something as fundamental as
9:09 pm
journalism one of the issues are protected under the u.s. constitution and given that this involved the trumpet ministration seemingly giving up outs to a foreign government going after a journalist and killing that person that several that simply had said all a love all of anger and frustration that i don't think we have seen on capitol hill in some time. when it could all this lead roseland meetings resolutions wakin of the case bearing in mind all the time that the white house donald trump remained supportive of saudi arabia. well certainly you have resolutions which are really express the emotional and intellectual life thoughts of of members. congress and those are easier to get passed than actual pieces of legislation but there is also legislation aimed at trying to curb the u.s.
9:10 pm
government's support for saudi arabia as it continues its more in yemen against these who want to try to take control of the country even with negotiations going on in sweden as we speak there is still a very vigorous debate here in washington about how much the u.s. needs to preserve its military relationship with saudi arabia getting that piece of legislation which has been pending now for several weeks would be much more difficult to push through because of concerns that one that congress might be getting a little head of itself when it comes to using its authority to declare war there is also a concern about harming a relationship with a country in the middle east that many consider essential to protecting u.s. security interests so it that's a little harder to push forward but there is a now frustration among both democrats and among republicans with the murder of
9:11 pm
jamal. tobar second that who knows what could really come out of this but that those two sites and. pieces of legislation and draft resolutions are now on the table and certainly the white house cannot ignore that congress is putting considerable time and energy into this investigation rosalynn jordan with the update from washington d.c. thank you. china's government has condemned the arrest of the chief financial officer of technologies and is demanding her media release was detained in vancouver canada on saturday at the request of us police she is facing extradition to the united states on suspicion of violating sanctions against iran the full story now from. huawei is the biggest private company in china worth almost twenty seven billion dollars according to the firm's latest annual report it recently overtook apple to become the world's second largest smartphone maker mongering joe

is not just the company's chief financial officer but daughter of the found a company statement says it's not aware of any wrongdoing by her the response from china's government has been swift and angry it says a human rights have been harmed once her immediate release and a reason for her arrest. china has expressed our solemn position to canada and the us regarding the case china demands them to immediately clarify the reason for their arrest release the detainees and safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of the detainees. well way has been under scrutiny by governments in the united states and elsewhere over its links to china's ruling communist party and whether its operations pose a threat to national security the cia director gina has made clear where she stood joining a confirmation hearing in may would you purchase
9:13 pm
a while we phone or connect your phone or computer to a while we are the t.v. network well senator as i mentioned i don't even have a social media account that i wouldn't i wouldn't use while way products mung was arrested on the very day the leaders of china and the united states where agreeing to a ninety day truce in the trade war between the two countries given her high profile in china and the fact that mung is well politically connected there is one obvious question was president from where she was going to be arrested when he sat down with president xi jinping at that diplomatic dinner in one of stories on saturday and if not why not last year another chinese telecommunications company said t e was fined one point two billion dollars in the united states over products it sold to iran and north korea but unlike that t. holloway has not so far been formally accused of breaching u.s.
9:14 pm
export sanctions adrian brown al jazeera beijing will get an update on this now with patty culhane in washington d.c. so patty adrian is saying there who knew what and when in the united states i'm reading some things on the news wires now suggesting someone pretty high up did know. well that's right that's john bolton he gave an interview to national public radio here in washington d.c. and he said that he was aware that the arrest was going to happen now keep in mind he's the national security adviser he goes on to say that he doesn't know if president donald trump knew keep in mind if the president knew john bolton the guy who would have told him so that doesn't necessarily carry any water we're going to have to wait and see exactly what the president tweets about that or the white house make some sort of statement and the other really strange thing is john bolton wouldn't say what the charges are and that is the thing we're hearing from u.s. senators that has something to do with violating sanctions against iran but then but went on to say that will always accompany that they've been concerned about for
9:15 pm
a while when it comes to intellectual property theft and also violating sanctions on iran one thing i think is really important to point out is this doesn't really happen you see companies are found to be in violation of iran sanctions or sanctions all over the globe and they pay fines you don't normally see a lot of people getting arrested for this specific especially in the middle of these very tense trade negotiations that are happening between the u.s. and china over the next ninety or so days so this is definitely going to be seen as accelerating the tension making it that much tougher to come to a deal but again we still don't know what she's actually been charged with so we'll have to think about it's just thinking is the way you said it there when you talked about the trade situation between china and the united states you've got iran and canada involved in this story as well but it seems that it is that trade issue which donald trump will not let go of and can be quite unpredictable as well he says you know i'm a tariff man. he's
9:16 pm
a tariff man and you know the different means this is actually been really bad for the president as far as how it's impacting the dow jones industrial remember when the stock market goes up he likes to tweet about it he likes to take credit since he's been sending these conflicting tariff man tweets and different statements from his different advisers making it seem as if nothing was really agreed between him and the president of china the stock market tumbled now with this arrest the stock market is tumbling yet again so it stumbled it was close because of the national day of mourning for president george h.w. bush now the stock markets are open at last check i just look at the dow jones industrial which is basically an indicator of the market's down more than four hundred points so if the president is said likes to think of the dow jones industrial as a running e.k.g.'s his presidency this might spook him but he has shown no signs of backing down and if you look at the latest trade numbers it's not working the trade deficit between the u.s.
9:17 pm
and china is the highest it's been in ten years so all of these facts are going to weigh on the president but so far he's shown no signs of really wanting to do anything to turn it around pretty colleen in washington thank you. here's what's coming up for you on this news hour it's only increases the pressure on egypt of the torture and murder of an italian graduate student. farming fears were in northern england meeting families concerned about how briggs it will affect their livelihoods and support new zealand's captain leads the way in the deciding test match against pakistan. when a bomb attack on a police building in the southern iranian port city of. on fire followed an explosion media reports say four people have been killed and nearly twenty injured the city is in the iranian province of near the border with pakistan no one's yet
9:18 pm
claimed responsibility but an armed separatist group has been active in the region in the past if you please ramping up the pressure against egypt over the torture and killing of a twenty eight year old italian student in cairo nearly three years ago the lawyer representing julio gen these families says five egyptian policeman and secret service members are now under investigation by rome charlotte bellus with more. truth for julio ridgeon he reads the banner it's been nearly three years since the italian students body was found in egypt. we are now at a very important stage we won't give up because we have taken a big step forward we never give up i want the people in egypt to know this we never give up. this is where janey while he was in school he was a cambridge university graduate student studying trade unions from the american university in cairo he was kidnapped in january twenty sixth jane a week later his mutilated body was found on the city's outskirts the egyptian
9:19 pm
government blamed a criminal gang or jenny's family pointed at security services nearly three years on the lewises italian authorities are investigating five egyptian policeman and secret service members she says that it's just the beginning. we have twenty names but many more people are involved we estimate that up to forty people are volved because in order to follow for months kidnap him and do what they've done to him many people when needed. it's only in egypt a walking a diplomatic tightrope over the case italy needs justice for a murdered student or not antagonizing an important foreign policy in august the italian deputy prime minister tried to ramp up pressure in cairo. i hope that by the end of the year we can get to a breakthrough and that the meeting between the judicial authorities can take place as soon as possible both on our side and on the egyptian one there is
9:20 pm
a desire to ask for an acceleration. and now it's the end of the year and no race so italy has suspended diplomatic talks with the egyptian parliament and announced the names of the suspects. we waited in silence for almost one year because our prosecutors already had many of those names and many other elements one year ago and they were presented in egypt one year ago as well however we did not receive any answer egyptian officials have repeatedly denied any involvement and origines killing and respond to the charges should be based on evidence and not suspicion. shelob ellis al jazeera. the oil producing group opec has decided to cut production because of an oversupply of crude on global markets ministers from member countries tentatively agreed to the move at a meeting in vienna the now waiting to hear from russia anonyma pick member before deciding how much they will actually reduce their production more with paul brennan
9:21 pm
he is in vienna a highly unusual situation if not unprecedented here at opec headquarters with the day's meeting ending with no formal announcements about oil production cuts as expected now it's left the journalists in the analysts here somewhat perplexed what exactly is going to be the policy of opec going forward but i think it's also an indication that opec is no longer the person is no longer the body the calls the shots in the global oil markets but the bigger body opec plus and indeed there's not opec states such as the united states their influence now is massive and opec's monopoly of power i. think of the past now what we're expecting on friday is the opec plus members that's ten non opec members but closely aligned with the opec block they're going to come here to vienna join the discussions and the expectation is that then figures will be put on exactly how much opec and its allies will cut
9:22 pm
production into twenty nineteen but as the saudi energy minister said it's not a done deal it's still if as opposed to when. pulsar spoke to an oil and gas economist the chief executive of my resources she says opec is dealing with many competing pressures. on one hand you know they could producing as much as they can because they were anticipating iran sanctions not over so many waved us that there's just a glass of oil on the market and on one hand yes they would like to take about also but some countries would like to take barrels out that's also best to us time mention to the president the u.s. president likes to tweet about opec and about the oil price and so they need to calibrate very carefully how much oil they will take out of the market without getting the. provoking the ire of the u.s. president and of course shale from the u.s. could be averaging about twelve million barrels
9:23 pm
a day come twenty nineteen that's the figure that well that's the figure but i said that so that's a that's a little bit high i think the u.s. has has some sixteen point five it's producing sixteen point five million barrels everything to get there so shale will increase i think the twelve point twelve million figure is a little bit high but it is it is still unknown out there and it was for the last six seven years it was known out there and one always underestimated how much a look come on the intel was coming through was that reduces the exactness of opec's maneuverability absolutely and the other thing that it reduces the exactness is you know how much how many barrels will be around sanctions really take out and the third thing obviously is trade was what will the money do you know if we suddenly localize supply chains there's less need to ship stuff around the old market seems to be a bit disappointed with the predictions of what is going to announce the price of oil dropped below fifty nine dollars this morning it's recovered just
9:24 pm
a little bit around sixty what's your prediction what i think it will be around the sixty level back you know it's not just oil it's you saw what markets the whole tech stocks were down it's a c.e.o. fred and generally when there's a c.e.o. fret that doesn't bode well for oil but opec what level do you think they'll start the production cuts that well i think that will set it somewhere oh between. no no pick and don't pick it will be somewhere between one million and one point three million together so we will see today what opec will do and then tomorrow the rest of balance will have to be met made up by the no no pick allies. ecuador's president says it is safe for the wiki leaks founder julian assange to leave the embassy in london where he's lived since twenty twelve than him oh no says he's received assurances from the british government that his sons would not be extradited to any country where he would face the death penalty he is wanted for questioning in the united states and sweden a son says the ecuadorian government is trying to force him out diplomats deny that and say his sanctuary has already cost six million dollars the british prime

9:26 pm
take them that is where they will end up if that's stops over night. where do they go it's as simple as that who will buy a third of my lambs who will buy a third of my neighbor's lambs and then as lambs and then you end up with prices crushing a glut of animals where do we go what happens on this farm has an impact well beyond the hills around here farming is the root of britain's production industry an industry with exports worth billions of dollars to the european union. britain has been linked to europe through a common agricultural policy allowing free and frictionless trade for more than forty years post breaks it britain will create its own policy and there are concerns that a no deal scenario would cripple the industry the border issues might be problematic and so simple day to day trade might be might be might be affected but there is then the policy issue about what sort of agricultural policy britain would
9:27 pm
have under those circumstances and it's by no means certain that the current plans for agriculture following a smooth bricks it misses the misses made bricks it would that would then be implemented a u.k. government spokesperson told us while the chances of no deal have been reduced considerably the government will continue to do the responsible thing and prepare for all eventuality is in case a final agreement cannot be reached. back at the farm the house family are trying to prepare for a future outside the e.u. and what that might bring we're always trying to think in us that with can well diversify just adopt different decisions that be made not necessarily by zero six by over people and we never know where we're going to quell in the end farmers are well known for their resilience and with an unpredictable political forecast many are hoping they'll be able to weather whatever next season might bring emma haywood

9:37 pm
peacekeeping mission will end in twenty twenty but with more than one point seven million still internally displaced and over three hundred thousand living as refugees in neighboring chad the un says its work will not and. two years does not mean that the departure of the u.n. will be working with all the stakeholders the government of sudan the u.n. country team the nonprofit organizations humanitarian workers to actually provide the conditions and the sustainability for i.d.p.'s to receive the services that they require but the humanitarian budget for darfur has only have the money it says it requires leaving millions in means local authorities in west are for say they're working to restore stability and encourage displaced people to return home. we've set up judicial systems in villages we've set up police stations for people to feel secure and return home and we've had a successful disarmament campaign so that there are no outbreaks of violence again
9:38 pm
and some people have left the camps and returned but for people like the one point seven million who remain displaced more needs to be done to erase fifteen years of war a conflict that was once called a human catastrophe and whose consequences people continue to suffer people morgan al-jazeera. for thousands of people from central america are not giving up hope of seeking asylum in the united states that is despite increasing efforts from the trumpet ministration to keep them out let's go live now to the border city of. her. well certainly people here as you said are not giving up their hope to cross. over they don't know how to do that. you know people do wonder what kind of option they have is an official way that they could do that but the process is extremely slow. doesn't guarantee them that they would reach that american dream they have that dream to
9:39 pm
get a better life to feed their children and maybe some money back home it is a very complicated situation and we have been traveling along the border over the past few days and we saw people who are trying to get in there in different ways. it's a morning scramble at the border asylum seekers hopeful their turn will come to cross into the united states. but these days only a trickle get through every day based on a number system others like marked up with that have to come back tomorrow or the day after many more to follow. when i was being forced to sell drugs when i refused they'd beat me up i had to flee here they told me to come back in three weeks from i ten not far from the official crossing some are trying to sneak in the u.s. on their own but they're still have got to milo with her two children about three weeks ago she wants to go to the u.s.
9:40 pm
at any cost despite knowing that actually two stewards people wanting to reach there are changing. but again it's still better than at home because there is work it makes me sad to see the other side because you want to be there but i can't it's not easy to climb the wall but i won't lose hope. the next stop is the official crossing in a nearby town of take kathy. but there quickly turned away the disappointment is immense but like many others will continue roaming along the border wall to try to find their way in the biggest hurdle is this war but even need. if you get past it illegally once you're on the underside you're officially on american soil and so migrants usually if they make it will sit and wait for border patrol to show up surrender and claim asylum. the border on the american side has been fortified recently. any weak spot along the metal bars reinforced and it's closely monitored
9:41 pm
round the clock. is still not enough to deter you and his friends they decided to take their chance after sunset they walk several thousand kilometers from honduras to reach this point his wife and daughter are already in the u.s. they took the same route he hasn't seen them in three years and just too difficult to get a visa they want financial guarantees that i don't have a hope not to get caught if it happens i will seek a song. it's almost like my moment there seem so close to see you looked hopeful as one of the group reached the top of the wall. they were quickly spotted it's game over but only for now as going back home is not an option anymore . when crossing that wall legally or illegally is a first step once they are in american soil they would have to go through something
9:42 pm
