4:11 pm
a rights group accuses nigerian security services of failing to prevent violence between herders and farmers. but first saudi arabia has issued an unusually strong rebuke of the u.s. senate rejecting its resolution that blames the crown prince for jamal khashoggi now the journalist was killed by what's being described as a saudi hit squad inside the kingdom's istanbul consulate in october and in a lengthy statement saudi arabia said the resolution interferes in its internal affairs and that is based on unsubstantiated claims and allegations meanwhile canada is looking for a way out of a multi-billion dollar military equipment deal with saudi because of the. and the war in yemen the contract was signed by prime minister. true days previous. of the
4:12 pm
murder of a journalist is absolutely unacceptable that's why canada from the very beginning has been demanding answers and solutions on that secondly we inherited actually a fifteen billion dollar contract signed by stephen harper to export light armored vehicles to saudi arabia we are engaged with the export permits to try and see if there is a way of of no longer exporting these vehicles to saudi arabia the relations between the two countries have been fraught since august that's when saudi arabia expelled canada's ambassador and severed all trade and investment ties to protest against criticisms about activists being looked up canada's foreign affairs department had tweeted canada is gravely concerned about additional arrests of civil society and women's rights activists in saudi arabia including some are but dolly we urge the saudi authorities to immediately release them and all other peaceful human rights activists well we've been speaking to simon mabel in his
4:13 pm
a lecture in international relations at lancaster university in the u.k. he says saudi arabia could face a serious challenge if international pressure continues to mount. well i think if we look at the history of u.s. saudi relations it's been one that's been quite tranquil the saudis aren't really used to any of this type of. rhetoric from from such a prominent organ of the u.s. government so that quite hurt i think by this it's a very strong move that was that was passed on thursday and they're not particularly accustomed to it and so when you put that alongside what mr trudeau's been saying overnight and i think you have there in a very delicate position they're in a position they're not being particularly accustomed to over the past seventy years or so so yeah i think they're in a position where the having to come out fighting it's important to remember that that only canada and germany have said that they are looking into it jimmy has done
4:14 pm
with regard to some aspects of military hardware and canada has said that it's looking into it but it faces a very serious financial fine if it pulls out of the deal unless that can be some some loopholes found the u.s. and u.k. still continue to sell arms and whilst there has been a degree of discussion about reneging on those deals stopping those deals that hasn't really come to fruition as yet so i think the saudis are managing to to keep calm stroll of these relationships for now but if the perch if the pressure continues to build then i think it's going to be a serious issue for them if more more steps start to pull out of these deals well as you just said that japanese film foreign minister has told out just there that more punches should follow his example by ending their arms change in saudi arabia altogether signal gabriel has sent a member of germany's pollin and those attending this she as to how far. we stopped

for example are delivering of defense of defense materials and capabilities after the crash case when you look at investigation that hasn't even accounted for where a journalist body is after he's gone in a consulate many people say that's simply not an acceptable vesting of course it's not acceptable and i mean it's also a tragedy we should not forget there are relatives because she had a family and i mean the killing of mr question is a catastrophe but it's for the family and the relatives is. a very bad situation that they are not even able to bury the body and to have a place where they can can go to so it for me it's also it's not only a political question it's also a question of humanity do you think the world will ever believe that m.b.'s was not responsible for that killing and europe everybody thinks that there is
4:16 pm
a certain kind of responsibility i don't know if it's personal order or people thought that it could be his wish it's an open discussion in europe but everybody things that it will not that the case will not be organised like an accident and you can see their full interview with signal gabriel talking to sami is a down on top there at fourteen thirty granted meantime that's today monday the lace is fighting near yemen's main port of data has killed at least twelve people and injured twenty five the weekend clashes between saudi government forces and his the rebels happened just two days before a un brokered cease fire is due to begin today to handle seventy percent of all food and aid imports to yemen and has been besieged for months. security

4:18 pm
almost two hundred thousand people displaced. it is a campaigner for amnesty international she is in the capital abuja she says people need to be held accountable for the violence. it's really appalling at this point to see that the government has decided to politicize this issue because it the conflict is not about ethnicity it's not about politics it's not of even about religion for example it's about competition over resources particularly by poor governance over the years in the country so when you have a mix of the rising population growth you have this kinds of conflicts keep that keeps occurring each and every time of course it's a recipe for the kind of violence that we have seen particularly between twenty sixteen and now and for us what we are calling on the government to do is to move the size in that issue and to ensure that they conduct in pascha in effective
4:19 pm
investigation into the various human rights violations that are caught why this conflict has lasted i must tell you communities are still very vulnerable many people are still living in i.d.p. country with little or no hope of returning back to their communities because they cannot guarantee they are not as short of the our safety so this is what we are calling for as we release these reports today to say that government needs to do more beyond deploying of security forces more needs to happen in terms of ensuring that part investigate to get it set up and that they do their job amid the our finest public and ensure that all those who are operated at these human rights violations whether they are state actors whether they are non-state actors the are brought to book that's what we call for today a refugee camp in mauritania has grown so large it's equivalent in size to the
