calls blatant interference by u.s. senators who blamed the crown prince for ordering the murder of jamal khashoggi the saudi foreign ministry says the senate's decision could affect relations the latest fighting the yemen's main port of a data is billed at least twelve people and injured twenty five others the weekend clashes between saudi government forces and to the rebels happened just two days before u.n. brokered cease fire was due to begin. to dance president bashir has become the first arab leader to visit syria since the beginning of the war almost eight years ago he met syrian president bashar al assad in damascus both leaders stand accused of war crimes linked to the conflict in their country and. the security forces in nigeria are being accused of not doing enough to prevent farmers and rival herders killing each other. amnesty international researches have documented more than

three thousand six hundred killings since twenty sixteen almost sixty percent of them have been carried out this year and they're all linked to the fight for land between felony herdsman and farmers let's go live there to our correspondent armitage who is in the nigerian capital abuja an army that many people will be quite familiar with the violence that's happening in the north east of the country perpetuated largely by voc around but this is slightly less known isn't it and it's been going on for hundreds of years. absolutely. the history of this conflict predates nigeria's independence during the colonial period and cost independent nigeria we have clashes between farmers and herders in especially in the north east of the in the north of the country and but for the years an increasing rapidly increasing population and impact of climate change has

changed the dynamics of this conflict and now in pretty independent nigeria the colonial authorities and in post-independence nigeria the governments on both sides actually marked out grazing reserves as well as quetta routes where our farmers where cattle herders can take their cattle to graze and water their animals to avoid conflict between the two parties now over the years an increasing population and in parts of climate change has changed the dynamics such that promise who have been used to one particular section of the land killing the line and planting crops are now moving into grazing reserves and then and also blocking cattle routes according to the full any herders why a little uneasy also accused of taking their animals directly into far far far from areas and degrees their cattle so that has exploded the situation to such a level that it's becoming very very much out of control for the

nigerian of course a lot of history given but we've never seen the scale of destruction in terms of lives and property and in terms of intensity of the conflict as in the last three years and has now made an end amnesty a pretty clear on them blaming this rise in the number of deaths from this conflict on the failings of government in the security forces it is election pant now isn't it how is this conflict feeding into campaign. well basically yes it's the army or the police have been accused of not being able to deal with the situation but if you look at the numerous conflicts. spreading across nigeria you will understand that the security forces are overstretched look at the conflict the book what are the conflict in northeast nigeria for example thousands of troops have been deployed back to deal with the crisis and it's been nine years now since the beginning of this conflict and then you have the issue of kidnapping in the

south of the country and in the northwest of nigeria almost on a weekly or daily basis people are being taken for russell ransom and then you have issues of armed robbery you have the shoes of kidnappings you have issues of calm communal violence between one community to the other you also issues of religious violence between various sections of the nigerian society now people are one thing that came out of course from this conflict is people are wondering whether or not these conflicts. especially the farmers cattle how this conflict is related to politics has become princes and eats up we've never seen the intensity of this violence as in the last thirty years before so people some people some regulars actually reading meaning to it that it has. political connotations it's like some sections are happy that these things are going on while the fact of the matter is

that this is a conflict that is as old as the country itself and the security forces are unable to bring it under control probably because they're overstretch they are under funded or under the mat so basically politicians on both sides of the divide are using the issue of insecurity in nigeria to to sort of push for their political agenda to just live in the nigerian capital abuja thank you. the u.s. state department says it's funding to renegotiate a deal which has prevented the repatriation of vietnamese citizens who arrived in north america before nine hundred ninety five then most are refugees who fled after the vietnam war there is heidi joe castro has the story now of one man facing deportation number two when was seven when his mother put him on a boat with his eight year old brother and pushed them off the shores of vietnam in one thousand nine hundred eighty three. son go on this boat and even go to

a christian pastor married and started his own family but his deportation order remains the only thing preventing the u.s. government from carrying it out is vietnam's refusal to repatriate anyone who arrived in the us prior to the two countries a stablish ing diplomatic ties in one thousand nine hundred five i feel very sad for my kids. you know that story if i do give that be poorer than they're going to end up just like me when i was kids they may end up making wrong decisions just like me more than forty years after the fall of saigon the economy is american communities are thriving in much of the country more than two million people who are in the diaspora to the u.s. and they owe much to the trailblazers those refugees who were the first to flee the after the war those refugees are among the seven thousand vietnamese with criminal convictions that the u.s. wants to deport and the trumpet ministration has upped the pressure on vietnam to

of people out to denounce prime minister viktor orban right wing government has been the long voice i think that this content is growing and with this not only anger and frustration but also those voices which would like to make change. well you know again banish an answer and again when i'm mad at that i had enough and so have my friends this is now not about opposition politicians about who stands on which side but this is about the discontent of hunger in society yet we have had enough of. the rally started last wednesday following the passing of two new laws one gives the government control over a new administrative court system the other perhaps more unpopular move increases allowable workplace overtime from two hundred fifty to four hundred hours a year victor or vans majority in parliament allowed him to push through the legislation despite complaints from trade unions rights groups and opposition

parties they say increasing overtime could harm workers health and the government shouldn't control the courts the government says it wants a more efficient legal system and a more flexible labor code i think what these protests suggest is that underlying the current popular. scene in action tom obviously i will say not mean that he's. going to resemble a discount. and this. comes to the fore when the government introduced. the seen by many as being against their interests the e.u. has seemed unsure how to respond to a government in one of its member states consolidating power by restricting civil liberties but in september the european parliament voted to impose sanctions on hungry for ignoring the rules on democracy civil rights and corruption the government says those claims are not true picked over and says his aim is to build an a liberal democracy in hungary and he's faced little meaningful opposition but anger
