voices for those gathered here it is an anxious time caught in a no man's land they face hostility in a country where nationalism and populism have surged in the past year. activists like andrea who work with refugees and migrants say they have seen the effects face to face and they describe how italy's government has treated those seeking refuge dominated as it is by the rhetoric of the far right deputy prime minister but they are salvini it's somebody can feel free to do it because they say look we're the cheap a big policing so it's like here take my goods i am defending. that that really scares me a lot of. this little in the way of options but those caught in the asylum system may come fleeing war or hardship but one thing is certain they do not feel welcome . that i didn't mean we have to go and sleep in
12:01 am
a station or on the street there are no other choices nowhere else to go so that's how it is. there have been warnings of a climate of hatred accelerating in italy since the far right went into power the ruling politicians have denied that there is any such crisis but the promotion i have done to my father since has for the right number of italians justified that in the name of law and order. i mean to me look what the current mood has power with the rise of the extreme right because a pound has been attempting to normalize fascism since the one nine hundred ninety s. squatting in the state owned building in central rome the group is part of a wave of white european so-called identity tarion movements they offer classes to disadvantaged youngsters especially men who they say have been left behind in today's italy and the lesson today italy's ancient history a standard subject for
12:02 am
a group looking to the past but its focus is very much fixed on the present and future political scenes. we are convinced that ca's a pounds role is to guide the government and they know this because if they don't live up to their promises voters may end up voting for us. because a pound may claim to unify all italians but its tactics have exploited divisions within a country that has seen a recent mass influx of refugees and migrants combined with a stagnant economy this extremist movement has found fertile ground to take root and in certain cases thrive so new diagonal al-jazeera roam. it's been our social media producer sorry to tell us what people are saying about the show impact on lines are always a very divisive story really in migrants but many people are quite frankly outraged both those that agree with the pact and those that don't have been demonstrations in several european cities in germany for instance there have been protests against
12:03 am
what is also known as the market pact but everywhere there is concern about the number of nations following the u.s. out of the deal as well we've been speaking to one human rights activist in america sure explained why the impact the pact rather is so important. it is beneficial for member states to the d.c.m. did you see any subtly or give a form of hundred ninety two members of. the board together to agree on a framework that is fair on human. that is based on internationally agreed dunbar's been work for the last seventy years it is a concept therefore to expand their deal for the states to work you know coordinate their uncle but at the framework that is beneficial for all of them. our producer had a reaction online and most of those are coming from europe especially belgium and
12:04 am
that's not a surprise is a right wing policy has just quit the ruling coalition over the government's plan to sign a pact. that's what i was writing and these are difficult times we continue resisting against this migration pact that really should not come into effect because it's a big threat for europe for our continent for our culture and our values and thanks i hope to get your support and we will keep fighting for this. one of the most common arguments is that the parts means countries give up their sovereignty if you take a look at this person tweeted saying once your country signs up the migrants arriving in your country will be the united nations authority and another one says this is nothing but legalization of what we currently call illegal mass migration but others are more hopeful this one hey you're right to see says the pact is providing an important framework for dialogue and cooperation as it brings together for the first time countries of origin transit and destination and if you look to the u.s.
12:05 am
donald trump's former advisor steve bannon recently described the pact as i quote dead even before it's been signed but he's in the camp that isn't so welcoming some wind currents and refugees we want to know your thoughts on the un pact so you get in touch with us the hash tag is a.j. nice grades thank you over to mexico now which is dealing with its own migration issues the town of four portland near the u.s. border has long been a popular tourist destination now it houses thousands of asylum seekers trying to cross into the united states local business owners say the arrival of the so-called migrant caravan has left them struggling to sell their goods and they fear things are only going to get worse from tijuana hoda abdel-hamid reports. i think the future should be full of tourists in a bold new saturday morning this small fishing village on the pacific coast attracts tourists from across the board indian ited states here fish crabs and clams are as fresh as they get. but salvador doesn't know if he would be able to
12:06 am
sell his freshly caught crabs and spider crabs which are usually in high demand you usually have more people than this right now for the. people from the snake. making them think they're going to. you know are going to be able to go back. salvador and his partner had to cut their daily catch by fifty percent. i think mexico's norden for each year rose after thousands of asylum seekers try to storm the crossing about jew weeks ago they were met with tear gas and the border was shut down for several hours angering many of the shop owners in the area who also felt that the protesters no problem started here the report of entry just closed for a few hours and since has been business as usual now there is traffic but the queues
12:07 am
are much shorter but more importantly tourists are staying away. but since those protests martin garcia has been losing countries of dollars and he now spends most of his day watching cars drive by. they didn't cause problems except for that one day but he got a lot of attention so now tourism is that all these cars you see are locals who are shop work or study in the us normally at this time i wouldn't have time to speak to you i would be busy selling. in nearby rosarito there's the same worry empty streets and restaurants fewer still that some say there's no point waiting in vain for customers. for gabby vote against the current political in. i meant to do us is also part of the problem she's a publicist whose business is targeted at the american market but if i'm the sort of the woman he guns it is both as mexicans we worry about the caravan because it's here and for those of us who cross often into the us donald trump has been talking
12:08 am
about immigration since he got into power and he wants to build his wall so this is giving him an excuse to fulfill his crazy idea and build his wall the migrants are giving him all the reasons to do it. and that's a curve and might start moving from central america did new year mexicans understand why people want to seek a better life to do that it states but there's also concern that it's mexico which is paying the highest price of this border crisis put up that had me do one. in my current crisis is the theme of a recent episode of our talking minority series people in power we take a look at why authorities in italy and libya are trying to stop charity boats and rescuing migrants in the mediterranean sea with access to both sides filmmaker paula. investigates the background to this complex to bait and what may happen next so look for that episode of people in power on al-jazeera dot com those are about
12:09 am
to close in armenia and a historic parliamentary election it's the first vote since those mass demonstrations against corruption earlier this year and it led to an end of decades of one party rule full suggest a landslide victory for acting prime minister nicole shiny and it's going out to robin forestay walker is live for us in the capital here of on so robin this is a historic election as we just said with that being the case why does it seem that turnout is so low. yes hole it down. possibly because well it's a joke going around at the moment that people were complaining that they haven't been bribed it's time to go and vote for anyone at the polls an indication perhaps that things really have improved as the compassion than promised with his velvet revolution six months ago that this country has a free and fair elections and if that is the case it will be the first really in
12:10 am
almost thirty years where armenians have been able to go safely and not be under any pressure or intimidation by the controlling party which often would use its resources to encourage that they will coworker government employees into going in for tea and certainly we've been speaking to me today and they've been telling us exactly that that the certain feel very free very transparent without any incident very few incidents have been reported so far so the shiniest my step alliance what is the likelihood that they will win an outright majority. it's very likely it seems to be what everybody is expecting it's what the opinion polls were predicting that he could get he might step a line as much as seventy percent of the vote there has been criticism or a
12:11 am
levels at him that other political party only had a couple of weeks to prepare and on the campaign they've been disadvantaged but it's funny really that i criticism is coming from the republican party the former ruling party that was so deeply unpopular with the party that got ousted in the so-called velvet revolution done the standard rule that they would be keep complaining because it's a likely it's possible that they could be absolutely decimated in this in today's election what that will mean if micha is the passion and get his majority if he will be able to carry through the wrist the kinds of reforms that the army and public want from him. that will improve the country's economy and bring in foreign investment and generally improve the situation for people that it's what people have been demanding and it's what they hope he'll be able to achieve for them all right robin first a walker last press in iran thank you. so we remind you how to get in touch with us

12:13 am
few weeks have also brought us some very heavy rain is the next to two systems then the first one is making its way across the east coast of the mediterranean there it out through parts of turkey and then there's another one following it for the western parts of turkey day all of that sweeps its way eastwards you can see yet more heavy downpours are expected and over the mountains a lot of that will still be turning to snow ahead of it it's fine for now force in baghdad a maximum getting to around twenty their planes pleasant in the sunshine then to roll not so will will be getting to around thirteen but the arabian peninsula the winds here in doha are feeding down from the north so we're getting to around twenty six degrees at the moment which is fairly pleasant it is warmer in flower a twenty nine in there's a bit more cloud around the red sea that might just bring us a few showers around the coast at times most of that will be sleeping its way southwards as we head into choose day for the southern parts of africa is pretty active the weather here at the moment you can see the huge trailing area of cloud that's working its way southwards for some of us in mozambique we've seen around
12:14 am
fifty or sixty millimeters of rain from this system and is still with us so plenty of work weather during the day on monday and even further west they'll be a fair few breaks of rain forcing cape town it should be dry. xenophobe violent and beating the drum for an ethnic civil war in the heart of europe. al-jazeera infiltrates one of the continent's pastas scrolling right organizations and exposes links to members of the european parliament and marine the pen's national lannie potty generation hate. hot one a special two pot investigation on al-jazeera.
12:16 am
the stories that have your attention right now on al-jazeera dot com the number one story there that we're going to circle back to that and just a moment also a story that we mentioned earlier investigative report about how there are so far right groups that are training infiltrating pardon me the political scene and france and also there nikki haley the outgoing u.n. ambassador u.s. ambassador to the e.u. and saying saudi arabia really must be held accountable in the murder of journalists just some of the stories getting your attention circle back to the top one talk about that members. have been meeting in riyadh there's a host of regional and internal issues on the agenda what the members do not have as unity near did not go to the saudi capital for the meeting and instead
12:17 am
a high level official in his place quite similar spoke of some of the challenges the block faces. we have faced a lot of challenges and on top of them there are the differences between our g.c.c. nations we need not to risk the interests of our peoples the peoples of the g.c.c. council states the g.c.c. must not be hesitant we need to keep our situation firm. and we need to be able to face the challenges in our region. demolished child joins us now from kuwait city so kemal it seemed like it was kind of just a routine mention of the same issues that are of concern every year and really not making any progress. well not so tall i mean if you think about the foundations of the g.c.c. regime it was based on cooperation namely and specifically economic cooperation the
12:18 am
free movement of goods but also people that would then pave the way for greater things in terms of collaboration with regards to military use security and so forth on the basis of that the free movement of people and goods that's been shattered because of the blockade on qatari imposed by saudi arabia the united arab emirates and therefore in the absence of that the question then becomes what what is the purpose of this cooperation council for condi even achieve that while there could have been some sort of positivity if the g.c.c. was able then to maybe prove itself as an arbitrator as a mechanism that says they are to maybe bring about solutions to differences rather than addressing to either military confrontations or sever diplomatic links but even with regards to that tosca failed to do so the secretary general of the g.c.c. himself failing to even make any real overtures in the past eighteen months in
12:19 am
terms of trying to bring about a solution to this crisis in fact the only member state that's been able to maybe push with regards to greater cooperation has been kuwait which has been leading mediation efforts and michele if you remember the last summit that took place was hosted here in kuwait by the emir not the time the top decided to send its head of state shift i mean but how much money however the blockading countries those are posing the embargo and are they only sent junior ministers there obviously this time now it is qatar who has chosen to send a more junior minister rather than its head of state and that goes to show that there is that you know there's a lot of questions being asked not just about the g.c.c. as efficiency and effectiveness and trying to. bring about an end to this crisis but also its future obviously those addressed with regards to the crisis with regards a couple but they will. other challenges the war in yemen you're talking about before a lot from the cultural to case you're talking about human rights and other. elements
12:20 am
that a lot of people have been focusing on within the region that the leadership of some of those countries have failed to address and therefore the fact that this summit is taking place is seen by some in and of itself as some sort of an achievement but realistically tomorrow for those living in the g.c.c. will be exactly like today will be exactly like yesterday in the sense that this summit will have very little if any impact on their day to day lives all right tamala shaw live for us in quite city jamal thank you of course we've been talking about the blockade of qatar that's one of the biggest crises facing the block and decades the border between qatar and saudi arabia remains closed as it has been since saudi bahrain the u.a.e. and egypt all cut ties with doha last year from a binge of aid has more. where i'm standing right now would usually be a very busy lane where families and trucks and lorries would be going back and forth between saudi arabia and qatar which has not been the case since june last
12:21 am
year when saudi arabia the main and the united arab emirates imposed a blockade on this country this is far out as you can go at the only land crossing that has and the animosity that has been shown by the blockading countries has been to an extent where an advisor of the saudi crown prince mohammed bin salon danny had been saying something along the lines of cutting but there is a line and ties completely drawing a canard between saudi arabia and qatar so that goes to show how a bitter this blockade has been in terms of its political fallout in terms of economic fallout well there was just with saudi arabia there was a bilateral trade of almost seventy million dollars a month which is stopped ever since the blockade and this was one of the main areas where all of that trade used to happen from and on the social front the fabric of society which brought together not just these countries these boundaries that have
12:22 am
been created in the last few decades but centuries old traditions of into marriages of communication and coordination between tribes of this region because this is a very tribal society to this day has also been torn apart with this blockade potteries and there are these and battery needs and saudis cannot go back and forth as there were so the free trade the free movement between these countries has been blocked there is also pressure on families to break up their long term ties with their families inside and. so there has been a lot of pressure on the social fabric of this society and also as the gulf cooperation council just a few hundred kilometers from here as they mean. as the focus has been that the people and countries will be brought together the reality is that is receded relics behind us of days gone by where g.c.c. in the gulf cooperation council blazoned on these border crossings it remains just
12:23 am
that just names of good days which are unlikely to return anytime soon are mistress al jazeera senior political analyst and marwan there there is the g.c.c. summit the g.c.c. but there is not free movement among the countries how much sense does that make doesn't make a lot of sense what's worse and i think that's the main problem it seems now for some a year or two years is that in a summit like this the host countries saudi arabia the king solomon doesn't even mention it so it's not even addressed if it's just the new normal as there is an elephant in the room as it were but no one you know want to recognize it until the emir of kuwait stepped in and said we have a crisis that is shaking the very base is the very pillars of this group called the gulf cooperation council but the fact that's not addressed the fact that the saudi foreign minister puts out
12:24 am
a minister so therefore mr puts out these diagrams about the history of the g.c.c. and doesn't even mention right as it is of this in exist it's a big childish logic what does it do for the credibility of the g.c.c. well i think that the problem here is that it's almost the credibility is based on two principles right there's one principle that the driving countries now saudi arabia and the united arab emirates wants to wants to pursue and that's dicta. they want to dictate to the smaller countries in the g.c.c. or the other partners and uses such as bahrain qatar kuwait and even oman to do certain things that the other members don't want to do they are being hyper active the united in the united arab emirates and there is the other principle which is debate so is it going to be dictate to the other member states or debates with the other member states about the priorities of the g.c.c. and about the role of each country in order to solidify this cooperation cut there
12:25 am
with kuwait and oman insist on debating the issues the u.a.e. and saudi arabia have been insistent that the other member countries needs to listen and play along so is there but the potential there for the j.c.s. aid to be effective and a positive force for all countries if they just overcame some pretty big obstacles that you laid out there but in its ideal form could it not benefit everybody absolutely you know i usually talk about the if you will of these of these sort of organizations and it's very simple again two principles right there is a principle of consensual has to be consensual a member said goes and goes out because they think that's what they want to do with us at their best interest and the second thing is mutual mutually beneficial meaning the member state benefits and the collective benefits if any one of them does not benefit if the collective doesn't benefit or the members of those than
12:26 am
benefit something goes wrong so at the heart of this organization is that member states need to benefit just like the collective called the g.c.c. is the benefit and especially these days when the whole region is really in a third while it would have expected this very particular rich area that the used to call the way says of the world where the least be stable and productive and help other countries in the region overcome their problems instead we are paralyzed in this region by those pretty differences well some of them are actually not so pretty but certainly the idea of the dignity of the member state is a problem ok am thank you so much for joining us appreciate it. think of all the details about the g.c.c. summit in the news section of our website it is al jazeera dot com let's take a look at some of the other stories making news around the world as we go to air crowds are gathering in london demanding what they call
12:27 am
a people's vote on brics it a second referendum on the u.k.'s departure from the e.u. their protest comes ahead of a crucial vote on tuesday as the british parliament decides whether or not to approve prime minister teresa mayes a you withdrawal to your earlier rival demonstrations in support of and against bracks it were also held across the british capital members of far right groups and supporters of the u.k. and dependents party joined a march to denounce may's bracks a plan protesters say the prime minister's proposal will leave britain trapped in the e.u. . washing. machine . was raised they say he. finished we got god our country i'm going. to. need barker joins us live now from london so there's
12:28 am
a lot of discontent on the streets of london what are the protesters against cracks it saying need. well against brick sits they are at the other side of town they have been out basically in protest of what is happening here behind me which the rally in favor of bricks it which is being largely supported of course by britain's right wing but this is very much a cross-section of britain's right wing there are nationalists from the u.k. independence party that were part of that was incredibly instrumental in pushing for the e.u. referendum the first place but there are also other groups as well some hardline ultra nationalists here we've even seen white supremacists in the crowd behind us including members of the identity tarion movement that is the same movement that has been orchestrating demonstrations and from that are ingress to geishas units managed to infiltrate so it is really something of
12:29 am
a bizarre collection of different flags it is there's a loaf a lot of right wing passion tree here we've just heard the national anthem which is really signal the end of this month but regardless of the politics regardless of really weigh you all on the rights of the political spectrum they are united in their anger and frustration at a reason mase breaks a deal that goes before m.p.'s on choose day they will vote to whether it's accepted or rejected on choose say these people here feel that that deal betrays their initial goal which is essentially to tighten britain's borders to reduce immigration but they strongly believe that in this studio to reason may has conceded too much to brussels so looking ahead to that than any indication that the passion the protests the outrage from people is actually going to affect.
12:30 am
we've already had a pretty early indication that that's the deal will be largely rejected from both sides of the the house of parliament from both sides of the political spectrum. touched upon the attitudes from the political rights similar kind of out of shoes from the political left as well i mean even from the center ground they believe that too much is perhaps perhaps being conceded to brussels particularly when it comes to northern island and the insurance plan there the so-called backstop that would keep northern ireland part of an e.u. customs union in the event of a no deal there are worries of course if there is no deal it could force another election we all is to reason may said in the british newspapers on sunday heading into uncharted waters if m.p.'s did not buy could deal it's a deal that she hoped would be a compromise to bring this divided country together but it only seems to be dividing people even further right barker live for us in london a thank you i'm ok now in northeastern tanzania known as the to the messiah people
12:31 am
as the mountain of god is showing signs that mayor rut. high is the only known active volcano with the type of lava that can move faster than a person happens or reports in the foothills and is now threatening nearby villages and three major sites of early human development. towering above everything else around the lake natural area in north in tanzania although new length stands at more than seven thousand feet the local mosque community call it the mountain of god for the last two years it's been rumbling geologists are mourning tearing its activity more intently because of the reasons care an eruption was imminent that threat level has since diminished but scientists say nothing can be left to chance hansen is professor at the university of the wrestler geology department he says tanzania needs a working observatory center to be able to keep a closer eye on the mountain itself rather than getting information from other
12:32 am
countries experts has been unfortunate that even the self can tell you people from germany europe they have no information because they have been working there at the moment and then we do disguise the know much more scientifically than what we have. because they have money this is the world's only active volcano that bulges out of black love a rich with a type of rock called carbon a tight when it comes to contact with it turns white. well kind of corruptions have been recorded here since eight hundred eighty three the largest deposited ash hundred kilometers away and that's a concern because a mountain is also close to important ancient historic sites like this one on the southern shores of lake notch on named the dance floor. more than human footprints left between five and nine hundred thousand years ago and preserved by debris and
12:33 am
ash from the volcano. those who live in the foothills of the mountain have watched you know and fear the mountain of god route to life this mountain last erupted in two thousand and seven those who live here say it had loudly rumble for months before and when it finally spewed its love they ran for cover no one died but some lost their cattle and grazing grounds were destroyed the recycling he says it sounded like a thunder storm and describes the flowing lover as scary. i was afraid at first i thought i choked to death it was like a fire and it cooled down and became white the dust settled on our cattle and when we tried to get it off the animals it would peel off the skin her son maurice king he told us immediately happened he knew what to do in line with the culture of his community and. the elders and i took up on top of the mountain that same day
12:34 am
god listened to us and they love us stopped i don't know what we had done to our friend communities here believe this for cain is sokrates they say they're not worried because like their ancestors they know just what to do when the mountain of god rose again catherine. on the foothills of. it's a case that has gone viral on social media several times in the past few years it's out of a young woman in the united states who was jailed in two thousand and fourteen at the age of two thousand and four rather at the age of sixteen for murder sorry back to tell us about the campaign to get her relief so she was a minor when she committed this crime start out correctly and that's one of the main problems so this is sense here brown here just thirty years old now and has been serving a life sentence for more than a decade now but hopes that she'd be released on early pro-war question of course in tennessee said defendants like center brown convicted of first degree murder
12:35 am
committed off to june one thousand nine hundred five can't be released before serving more than five decades when she was sixteen she kills a forty three year old man who took her home and tried to have sex with her since he was already a victim of sex trafficking after a lifetime of abuse and says she shot the man in self defense in the court documents just a can see it's dated october that she points to a twenty twelve us supreme court ruling that states mandatory life sentences without parole for juvenile violates the constitution and despite a center being under-age she was still tried as an adult and she describes a life sentence as cruel and an unusual punishment and as a pure it's the latest court decision but as you can imagine more than a decade after her sentencing the case has once again on social media. again where people are tweeting about that so the hashtag is free send her brown
12:36 am
and you can see that that's just their own that sweet and people have been joining that campaign include celebrities like pops arianna who use social media to highlight the case even further she calls for the release of censor and that's just here in this instagram post you can see she also as this we somehow change the. an issue of justice along the way and other celebrities like kim kardashian a raising awareness of how being a sex trafficking victim which is why she's recruited lawyers to help center it now in may she met with u.s. president all tromped to discuss prison and sentencing reforms now since lawyers advocates have also been pointing to online the whites men and women who commit crimes all handed life to sentences in the u.s. then people of color like sent to if you take a look at this tweet this person the economy writes we are witnessing another injustice of the hands of a god government rather systematically tall that saves lives and as the boats and
12:37 am
the prison reform is necessary now a petition for center it's received a presidential pardon is being shared online it's reached a hof a million signatures you can just see just there both some they need just as much for it to go through and they want the local governor bill haslam to do something about this as well but also organizers of a women's march of planned a march that will take place in january in the ninety's and they're calling on the local governor has them to take action as well and secure a politician now prosecutors accuse center of killing the man to rob him not to defend herself but she did even though she took money and guns for fame she says it was out to favorite saying to her boyfriend pimp and the hand that she sent and since her sentencing rules around sex trafficking victims and juveniles sentenced to life in prison have trained dramatically if she was arrested today in fact brown is more like he's had been recognized as a charter king victim now since those now spending her time studying and working on

by the so-called yellow vest movement on seventeen hundred people were arrested throughout france and hundreds of businesses vandalized tweeted his appreciation for the courage and professionalism of the police but he has faced mounting criticism for not speaking publicly meanwhile france's foreign minister has told the u.s. president to stay out of french politics off to donald trump blamed the violent protests on the paris climate agreement speaking on french t.v. . said we do not take domestic american politics into account and we want back to be reciprocated leave our nation be. well let's go live now to dominate came here is in paris and so dominant we were just speaking there about more injuries more arrests in the protests what's it like on the streets of paris how much damage has there been. well the point to make i suppose maria
12:51 am
is that the clear up has largely succeeded in paris very calm peaceful it's a it's late autumn day here in paris people's attention obviously is being drawn to what has happened in this city what's happening in their country and so people are asking what happens next what is the next step in this this whole saga as it were and so far as the government is concerned well today we've been hearing as you were mentioning in your introduction there that the foreign ministers related to the young is rather incensed by the comments of from across the atlantic of the american president donald trump and believes that mr trump should not insert himself in his views into what is a french domestic political matter saying that he should let the country be the irony there is that i'm sure many of the on the yellow jackets yellow vest protesters would say the same thing to their own government that the sorts of
12:52 am
legislative proposals the emanuel mark on his government have come up with really aren't what they want to see happen in their country so yes the damage has been cleared up here from from saturday's violence the mess the political mess that's been created by the government and by the protesters shows no sign of being cleared up. out president macron is jus to speak to the unions have been calls for more talks with the leaders of this protest movement but they don't seem to have made any headway on that yet. well not so far at least do they marry and the point here is that the president is due as you say to hold these meetings to make a speech this week we understand on monday where he is believed to be prepared to address the concerns to touch on the concerns of many people in wider french society but the question is what sort of concessions can make he's already made several concessions certainly regarding taxes regarding fuel prices and that sort
12:53 am
of thing how much more could he be prepared to concede the other thing to say is that on monday the u.s. the minister now the french parliament the building behind me while his political opponents they're certainly from the left wing parties will be putting down a motion of no confidence in his government now on the face of it that ought not to be a problem for mr mccollum because his party his movement has an absolute majority in parliament so this very little chance of that being passed but it does show the difficulty that it's now the government that mr mccloy is having to deal with the point here is many people in the newspapers but also in wider society believe some of these these problems he's dealing with a self-inflicted they look at the style of presidency sort of government that he has and they believe that he is at fault so he will have to try to assuage those concerns if he wants to raise his opinion poll ratings be clear about this fewer

demonstrations earlier this year ended in decades of one party rule. polls suggest a landslide victory for acting prime minister mikel passion yanni came to power in may after weeks of popular protests against corruption what became known as the velvet revolution he stepped down in october asking for a stronger mandate to govern robin feisty a walker joins us from capitol yera van any signs yet of which way the vote has gone wrong. yes unfortunately disappointing to report that we're hearing from a reliable source here that there will be no. polling exit polls so we don't know if they how things have gone but certainly nobody expects. it to go in any other way than for nichole pressure and he's my step along. if you have scored an outright victory. he's expected to potentially pick up as much as
12:59 am
sixty seventy even eighty percent of the vote and if that happens that will give him the majority that he needed the mandate to govern to make big changes here that he has pledged to the armenian people back in the spring with his massive protest movement and the so-called velvet revolution and that's been the problem for passion and so far is that the parliament has been dominated by the the former ruling republican party in that that's made it very difficult for him to implement his agenda what is he likely if he does win what is he likely to face in terms of opposition. that's a good question it could be that the republican party that you mentioned there that was so unpopular and was outed earlier this year although yes they've held gone in

parliament they look at this day could be absolutely decimated in today's election and so they will need to be some foreman of an opposition to challenge the my step alliance. but it's not clear yet who that would be there are several parties including the republicans that may pick up a few seats but the passion and with an overall majority will be able to bring through those reforms but on the downside of course ironically the armenian democracy. certainly will have a new shape in another one party government but at least. he'll be able to go ahead with those changes or at least he will try to deliver on those promises that he made think like dealing with the economy bringing in more foreign investment and he's also going to have to tackle head on some really tall issues like the nagorno-karabakh conflict without the by john.
