again i'm with al jazeera live from doha also coming up. that we must confront the ayatollah. the. us secretary of state might come peo calls on the arab world to stand against iran in a key speech delivered in cairo. questions increase about the validity of the presidential election result in the democratic republic of congo. the murder of coups show he is an atrocity and in the front to him and to members of the u.s. congress hold a vigil for a saudi journalist jamal khashoggi one hundred days after his murder. the us president has ended a visit to the country's southern border he went there on thursday in a bid to draw. up support for his proposed war which would separate the u.s.

from mexico donald trump met border security offices in the texas town of macallan he's demanding more than five billion dollars for the war which he says is needed to stop an influx of crime democrats accuse the president of holding the country hostage over the scene and to refusing to fund it and that's led to a partial government shutdown that's lasted nearly three weeks but you see on the border that's not as much of a problem because they come through the border and they go out through our nation so you'll have crime in iowa you'll have crime in new hampshire you'll have crime in new york your crime in places you know you don't associate with the border but it comes through the border tremendous amounts and as hard as we work as well as we're doing nationwide and a lot of it's caused by people to come in through the southern border so it and you know if we had the barrier it wouldn't happen it wouldn't happen they could have

fewer people they could put people other places and sort of having everyone concentrated right here and it's all common sense and nancy and just to know that look you know winning this argument they're losing the argument badly they know it and set about an argument as not about politics for me it's about doing the right thing more now from our white house correspondent kimberly how kit who's in macallan texas. don trump is wrapped up his visit to macallan texas where he tried to persuade the american public that there is a need for the five point seven billion in funding for a border wall along the united states border with mexico have a callous texas where very large number of fact is the busiest location for illegal crossings into the united states and that's why donald trump came down to meet with border patrol he put out all the displays in terms of seize weapons and drugs that have been brought into the united states in order to try and convince the american

public but the president also said if he can convince his democratic opponents in congress to give him the five point seven billion that he needs for his border wall he hasn't ruled out the clearing and national emergency that would open up already allocated funding but it would also open up the possibility of major legal court challenges our correspondent john home and has more now from the other side the mexican side of the border. this is the fencing that covers about good of the border between mexico and the united states which president trump says isn't enough he wants a route to come of this border the reasons he's given for it beriah he says that it will help to stop drug struggling quite stucco to be the boss majority of drugs go through ports of entry they smuggled through that way rather than over the fence saying he's also said that it will help with terrorism to me most terrorists go

through airports rather than trying to get over this fence but he's also obviously given the reason of my gratian there has been a big uptick in migration over the past year but again if you take the bigger picture over the cut last couple of decades or so it touched me going down quite a lot now what has changed is the number of women and children who are trying to get a. ross through the united states that has gone up quite a lot now there is an analyst would say the aunt's to resulting in dealing with that problem is more immigration judges and a more efficient system to work out which of those people deserve a sign of many of them are coming from countries like honduras and el salvador that are run by gangs now a lot of people are coming for economic economic reasons they wouldn't qualify for asylum a lot of people are coming because of the violence they suffer back home and they

could qualify for asylum now advocates would say that the quick of those cases can be seen and treated the less back quote there will be in the system and the more that this mess will be sorted out obviously president trump has gone another way his solution a wall that's going to keep a lot of people out of the united states and meanwhile back in the nation's capital government workers have been taking to the streets in protest over the past to shut down castro is that. the impact of this partial government shutdown is twofold first there are those government services that are being unfairly built in some of the most vulnerable americans in just a few weeks time would begin king the price of this is not resolved they are the recipients of the federal food stamps who depend on that benefit to feed their families but more importantly and more immediately at this moment the more than eight hundred thousand federal workers who are going without a paycheck because of

a shutdown and they are marching now to the white house finally calling out the president trying to find names it is his responsibility to reopen the government o'connor's even doing his job right now mcconnell isn't doing his job the senate majority leader and then of course the president you know this is he's going to not sign the bills progress has already passed legislation to reopen the government he won't sign and that was the resoundingly answer for every person i spoke to at this protest they say the president is to blame for this federal shutdown and that is why they are going to the white house to demand that he reopens it with or without wall funding trump has claimed otherwise he has actually said he believes many third rule workers agree with what he is doing that is not what the unions representing these workers are saying in fact some have even bought a bottle lawsuit against the federal government making saying that it is against the fair labor as act to force federal workers to go without

a paycheck and some to work without a paycheck however any sort of legal resolution may take years and these workers are demanding a solution now u.s. secretary of state might prompt a zero has laid out the trumpet ministrations vision for american policy in the middle east speaking in cairo he told us leadership oppose it of force in the region but the main focus of his speech was confrontation with a wrong fed reports. u.s. secretary of state. always touring the middle east almost described as a mission focused on shoring up support among arab allies against iran. since withdrawing from the two thousand and fifteen iran nuclear deal last year the u.s. has increased pressure on teheran which it accuses of being a destabilizing force in the region many middle east experts say pushing iran into a corner is a dangerous move but in the egyptian capital cairo america's top diplomat didn't

mince his words the nations of the middle east will never enjoy security achieve economic stability or advance the dreams of their people of iran's revolutionary regime persists on its current course america's economic sanctions against the regime are the strongest in history and will keep getting tougher until iran starts behaving like a normal country. middle east follows confusion about donald trump's withdrawal of a around two thousand u.s. troops from northern syria. the president's announcement schult arab allies as well as a u.s. political leaders and military commanders concerned that the battle against eisel in syria and the wider region is not over yet. try to reassure them president trump has made the decision to bring our troops home from syria we always do and now is the time but this isn't a change of mission we were made committed to the complete dismantling of isis the

isis threat and the ongoing fight against radical islamism in all of its forms. the u.s. withdrawal from syria is also having ramifications for american relations with nato ally turkey u.s. troops have been working with kurdish y.p. chief i choose who control a large area of northern syria close to the turkish border turkey considers the y. peachey a terrorist organization the president received type order one said the suggestion on choose day by u.s. national security adviser john bolton a protecting the white p.g. as a precondition to the u.s. troop withdrawal plan was a serious mistake it was very little if anything from pompei of about the story israeli palestinian peace process very little on the saudi and amorality led war in yemen that has killed tens of thousands displaced millions with millions more threatened with famine and disease pressure increased on president trump from both

democrat and republican senators to end support for the saudi involvement in yemen after the murder of saudi journalist jamal khashoggi many suspect crown prince muhammad bin solomon ordered a saudi hit squad to fly to istanbul last october that the united states is the main provider of saudi military assistance aid and support in the war in yemen so the not united states is not an objective observer of the war of yemen it's an accomplice in the water of yemen. pompei was keen to lay much of the blame for what many describe as years of chaos in the middle east on former president barack obama's administration. president trump has reasserted america's control as a force for good in this region he said we have rediscovered our voice. there are millions of people throughout this region who are grateful for the u.s. led coalition success in the battle against eisel but there will also be many made

nervous by a u.s. administration that blames the region's instability in the previous u.s. president and iran chance trafford al-jazeera. listen twenty four hours ago long delayed election results were announced in the democratic republic of congo the country's electoral commission surprised many by naming the opposition candidate felix just a kiddie the winner but officials from the catholic church say those results don't match the tallies from their own observers. reports from can show the provisional results have led to celebrations or song and protests. and announcement a few expected one that could set the stage for the first democratic transfer of power since independence from belgium in one thousand nine hundred eighty. s. father lead congress opposition for more than thirty five years had a message of unity. i know how many of you find it hard to accept
