ministers of joined the talks in paris alongside union meetings. and world leaders at a un conference in morocco have adopted a pact and she's aimed at improving cooperation on migration but fewer governments joined than had previously been thought a number of countries refused to support it including australia and the united states and several european countries today more than eighty percent of the world's migrants move between countries in a safe and orderly fashion. but and regulated migration as a terrible human costs. the lives lost on every lives journeys across the oceans and rivers and the cost in lives ruined the hands of smugglers and script was in lawyers and other daters more than sixty thousand migrants ever died on the move since the year thousands and these is a source of collective shame all right let's go to our correspondent. there in
8:06 pm
america and we now get an idea of what this u.n. pact seeks to achieve but how does it think it will be implemented how does it think it will become effective with so many countries not playing ball not being part of it. well that's going to be the biggest challenge facing the international community but however they think this is a major achievement because this has been into the making since two thousand and sixteen with the new declaration of human on grounds and refugees of course it comes against the backdrop of the decisions by countries like the notices of america italy hungary switzerland australia and to pull out from the do you think that it is inconsistent with their sovereignty but however for the un this is going to be further formally endorsed by the general assembly and it will be the only framework that would help countries human rights activists agencies
8:07 pm
find a better way for the refugees people stranded in different parts of the world people confined to refugee camps people who have absolutely no hope they would one day be able to make it safely to europe to the u.s. or go back home just to give you an idea about how this is really important joining me now is here pereira comes from a family of migrants from sri lanka she suffered in canada and she's now championing the rights of children refugees and lobbying to raise awareness against the dangers they face she well i'd like to ask you a question you've been there you delivered an emotional speech today how do you see the decision today to adopt the compact as a young person i'm very excited about this opportunity i think it's going to provide a roadmap for cuts for countries that are already have existing obligations i'll just provide a roadmap for them to be able to implement the compact you have your own organizations the americas are pulling out countries like italy austria are also
8:08 pm
pulling out are you concerned that this is going to disrupt or impact in a way or another the work that you do i am concerned and i think it's important for these countries to realize that they're at migration is a positive influence if we look at for instance the they're the fortune five hundred companies half of them are founded by immigrants or children of my everyman grants so. the happen these countries need to see that they need to understand that this is a positive impact. you come from a family of migrants and how you go your stand for those who have no voice defending their rights however there are many countries now saying that there is no place for migrants in the future in our own countries we need to build walls what is what is your message to countries like the u.s. austria hungary switzerland and admin a country that could pull out in the future. very very clear these countries need to stop immigration detention they need to provide protection for victims of human trafficking and to be able to prevent trafficking they need to stop the
8:09 pm
criminalization of migrants they need to ensure that families are kept together and that children are healthy and that they're in school and they need to combat uniform b.-a my colleague asked me a while ago what happens when it comes to the implementation do you think that this is something that could be further implemented in the future that we've seen many migrants able to relocate to different countries given access to health education schools i hope i certainly hope so and as young people we're ready that to work with with countries as well. thank you very much indeed looking forward to seeing in the near future martin this is a sentiment that you get from people attending the conference america's why are the expectations are not really high because of the stance taken by countries like the u.s. hungary austria and other countries but a place for many people of this pact signed in medicare could be the beginning of a. of a framework that would pave the way for millions of people to go back home or to resettle in places like europe and start in new life the biggest concern now is
8:10 pm
rejection and they are just concerned that there might be confined to their bases for if the stance of countries like austria hungary and europe remains the same how should live in america america thank you. at least twenty police and have been killed in fighting between security forces and members of the taliban in the western part of afghanistan five others were injured in the violence across far and fadi our province is a car way has rejected allegations that it breached u.s. sanctions against iran the chinese telecoms giant says it communicated with the us government agencies on a daily basis to obtain guidance it follows the arrest of one of its executives mung one june canada that is tensioned and extradition processes opened yet another rift between the world's top two economies who are already engaged in a trade war. china correspondent adrian brown has more more now from beijing.
8:11 pm
well a lot happening on many different levels in this case right now over the weekend the ambassadors of both canada and the united states were summoned to the foreign ministry for a dressing down by a vice foreign minister who warned of unspecified action if monk is not freed immediately they continue to complain that monks human rights are being violated by this action and there is a growing belief here in china that her arrest her detention was politically motivated because of course her way is a company that is at the heart of president cheating peing strategy to make china a leader in technologies of the future by twenty twenty five the language in state controlled media is going from really purple to crimson the nationalistic global times on monday warned that the detention of mung amounted to an act of war by the
8:12 pm
united states and i think that's going to be the tone of the language in the coming days weeks and months if mung remains detained her next a bail hearing is on monday vancouver time her lawyers are likely to argue that she is not a flight risk because she owns two large properties in vancouver and so of course would have somewhere to stay as the legal process continues they also say that she has health problems and is apparently suffering from hypertension japanese prosecutors have charged to form a nisanit executives with financial misconduct for many sand chairman color skin and director greg kelly and accused of underreporting their salaries and using company assets for personal benefit. the commander of ukraine's navy says he has no doubt that russia was behind the attack on three of his bites moscow is accusing ukraine of being at fault but admiral. insists his navy acted within
8:13 pm
international maritime law he was speaking to andrew symonds that ukraine's naval base in a death. this abdul commands a naval force that's under strain twenty four of his men who set out from a desa port more a fortnight ago of being detained by russia. says russia has no right to put them on trial. they have to admit that they took prisoners of war not some criminalize involved in contraband or illegal fishing. for in genco dismisses moscow's charge of ukrainian provocation and. no one recognizes that exception of crimea and even if we did cross the twelve miles only we're not to fight the f.s.b. border service we're passing according to our agreements through the strait of
8:14 pm
curch we are sure the tactical decisions were not being taken by the commanders of the russian ships. goes on to say it was clear when russia sees the ukrainian boats the orders were political a claim denied by russia he says the blocking of the strait wasn't due to the accidental grounding of a tanker but was a deliberate act by russia using tugs these are identical system boats of two of the vessels that came under attack a captain shows the area of penetrated or one of the boats being held by russia ukraine's navy says the crew was being targeted rather than the boats engines which would have disabled the vessel. the admiral isn't optimistic of a quick end to the crisis and wants nato to commit more support to the region. we need to keep up parity of power it's not about an open confrontation we need
8:15 pm
containment and the blacks and the reason need to cool down the fervor the heat of russia's aggression to stop it it's hardly surprising that ukraine is still calling for nato support when you consider how much the size of its navy was diminished when russia annexed crimea in twenty fourteen ukraine lost a lot of vessels and out of the few battleships that remain this is the only frigate outgunned and outmanned over by russia of this navy has to be defensive. its hopes for a quick release of its captured crews have to live with the offensive mounted by diplomats and political leaders and drew simmons out zero adesa ukraine. the tanzanian president has brought radical change to his country since coming to power three years ago john mcafee really has introduced ways to save money he's waged a war on corruption and got rid of so-called government goes workers but a clamp down in other areas is gaining him many critics catherine soy explains from

8:17 pm
cities this time it is really. focused to make sure that turns on the uncertain the development we want but it is the style is also to change some of the mistakes of that part of the past but critics of the president say he's a dictator last stifle the political space and curtailed freedom of expression and media if he decide on something he does it and go with it all the way but at the same time very autocratic. so you have a way that you don't have a feedback mechanism improve the decisions that are that have been taken and that's why you have a situation when the country everybody is in fear however he does enjoy popularity amongst some president john magoo for you has been described as a populist he often says what ordinary people in tanzania want to hear and mostly take this fish market for example evening walk in october stop here talk to the

secretary general you want to find out more about that part that's been signed in america scheduled website lots of the day's other news as well al-jazeera dot com. and on these a gathering the g.c.c. has met in saudi arabia but the blockade of the war in yemen at a journalist's moda overshadowed the summit can this powerful six nation block survive what does the future hold this is inside story.
8:22 pm
a welcome to the program i'm adrian finnegan leaders and officials from six gulf nations have met in the saudi capital riyadh to discuss cooperation from the economy to security but its regional disunity that's hanging over the summit in his opening address saudi arabia's king solomon didn't mention the blockade of cost by his country and to other g.c.c. member states but it's that dispute the war in yemen and the diplomatic crisis surrounding the murder of the saudi journalist the the shuttering the event there was a plea however from leaders to work together. i would you know it through the gulf cooperation council states is working for the prosperity and solidarity and cohesion of these uses c. trade is true of this country as all the ambitions will be achieved and we need all to work hard in order to keep and in. these great
8:23 pm
solidarity cohesion and synergy. you know i don't ever there and we have faced a lot of challenges and on top of them there are other 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 has stand firm and we need to be able to face the challenges in our region well there was one notable absentee at the meeting the emir of qatar i mean been how it all funny. explains why. i thought of treason to send a low ranking official there and obviously there are several reasons behind it so the from a macro perspective let's say that you are talking about the crisis still ongoing that is the blockade imposed by saudi arabia the united arab emirates i'm behind
8:24 pm
now for almost two years and specifically speaking however if this summit was to take place let's say in amman or as it did last year in kuwait so very much likely that god would have sent the head of state to shift. sunday however the fact that this has taken place in the yard and there's been a lot of let's say. unconventional policies to put it in a diplomatic term pursued by this how do you need a ship in terms of the reports of them detaining kidnapping essentially ahead of states previously prime minister satisfied eighty all of lebanon in the sense that there have been reports that the saudis together with our allies in fact tried to orchestrate some sort of cool inside ohio defense very surprising that the company leadership did not feel truly well confidence in sending. head of state there let's hear now from al-jazeera as a solid job it who's on cattles border with saudi arabia. if this was made two
8:25 pm
thousand and seventeen we would have been standing in the middle of a very busy traffic lane where people would have been moving from cover to words saudi arabia this is the only land border this country has which has been blockaded by saudi arabia the united arab emirates and behind three of the six members of the gulf cooperation council who are meeting in riyadh they have been discussing various ways of cooperation and try to keep this you alive a very rare success story between these members of the middle east that has been ongoing since one nine hundred eighty one but has been facing a lot of difficulties since the blockade of gaza began it is also happening on the backdrop where journalists jamal khashoggi was murdered by agents of the saudi government where saudi arabia is also facing internal and external pressure and at the backdrop of qatar leaving the oil producing club opec as well but are insisting that its decision was based on wanting to explore more gas than any politics but
8:26 pm
the future of the g.c.c. still continues to hang in the balance of where the blockading nations saying that they are confident that this this crisis is not going to change the future of this six member cooperation council but everyone else looking at it from the outside thinks that this is going to be very difficult for them to be able to keep this face on while three of their members are blockading one nation some of the al-jazeera at the blue some are a border for inside story. well the gulf cooperation council is a political and economic alliance made up of six countries saudi arabia kuwait the united arab emirates oman qatar and bahrain established in one nine hundred eighty one its aim was to provide regional national security at that time the islamic revolution in iran was taking place also the iran iraq war the g.c.c. countries are among the wealthiest in the world their primary exports being oil and
8:27 pm
gas but in june last year there was a big fall out saudi arabia led a blockade which also included the way in bahrain against cattle in december the summit in kuwait was cut short to the three book aiding countries sent lower level delegations instead of heads of state and this year's gathering comes amid a diplomatic crisis following the murder of the saudi journalist. with many people saying that the saudi crown prince is to blame had been solomon has also been criticized for his role in the war in yemen where thousands of civilians have been killed. well let's bring in our guests for today's discussion joining me here in doha is mo one couple and head of policy analysis of the arab cent of the research and policy studies from kuwait city we're joined by a. professor of political science at kuwait university and from tehran moustapha.
8:28 pm
journalist and political commentator gentlemen welcome to you all. will start with you given the dysfunctional relationships that exist and tension between its members does the g.c.c. have any relevance today was sunday's meeting a waste of time. well i think many people are questioning the very future of the g.c.c. indeed i mean this is not the first crisis the g.c.c. is facing great have seen many other crises before most important behalves was the one nine hundred eighty six clash between qatar and bahrain of our border dispute but perhaps this is this is the more serious crisis since the establishment of the g.c.c. in one nine hundred eighty one i think the contrary is the met the member countries are actually now having very different entrance and are having very different perception in one thousand eighty one it was established and they said as you said as a security as
8:29 pm
a collective security umbrella to defend the security of the member countries against iran as we are not iran they are not evolution nine hundred seventy nine at the time expressed its intention to explore the revolution to neighboring countries so this that was the key reason why at the g.c.c. well established but today actually we see that some members are facing a threat from other members within the same bloc so. i doubt that we that we have many many blocks within this one bloc we can actually delia need a police to three different groups within the g.c.c. now qatar doorman on one hand we have saudi arabia emirates and body on the other hand and we have quit trying to mediate between the two so i think the summit to the end riyadh is merely. it seems to many people actually as only
8:30 pm
a certain sort of. summit because nobody actually want to pronounce the g.c.c. dates everybody wanted to be alive but without as you said having a very important role to play for the time being professor in kuwait who's responsible for the current state of the g.c.c. is it cats are a man and q.h. on one side or the crown prince of saudi arabia and the united arab emirates and their policies. alist the clash of projects the essence of a law and the alliance still have a unanimous view and door to a hash out their troubles and their differences from within the organization itself and not to let it fester on and. undermines the whole
8:31 pm
establishment the whole organization now all parties are suffering that there is a serious zero sum game that is and irrationality in tackling these disputes i just published a book on the g.c.c. crises and i argue that the main reason behind such crises is that we lack at the lack of a unified vision and the lack of who is the adversity and this is the most serious dispute that has erupted over the last thirty seven years of the existence of this mall was one of the most formidable and the most successful regional out of integration organization now the illness has bee fallen disorganization like all other arab illness and symptoms and because of that there is an urgent need to help this organization from within because this is a very damaging dispute that is undermining the very existence on the various and
8:32 pm
the future mustapha how should what's the iranian view of the current state of the g.c.c. it was after all a regional grouping that was designed to counter iranian policies. well only in zero zero zero p. g.c.c. is of one of those products of the united states iran the full be a policy that started after these lawmakers aleutian in iran and through a misuse of some slogans and mulattoes and causes of the islamic revolution that was stated by iranian officials that's why some arab states especially slowly arabia and you know its allies in the out of war supported saddam hussein against iran in that war are the same climate was a spreading in the region all throughout the last several decades thanks to the united states israel and saudi arabia that have been trying to use of regional
8:33 pm
capacities and potentials against iran to harness iran to actually stop iran's growth and strike at iran's economy and political dominance and influence in the region but the p. g.c.c. is null you know a failure actually because of that iran a phobia has now changed into a so before bia because of the inexperienced policies exercised by the house of soul in the last couple of years of from the harry reid case to to the blockade of the tower to the war on yemen and to the massacre of the civilian population in eastern sul the arabia the world can very readily see that the arabia is exercising hawkish and provocative policies that could end up being.
