his arrest comes a day after the u.s. said it would back him as the country's leader following his her lace one bio addressed supporters at a rally and repeated calls for a change of government. so i get it did what it was going up do you know what i told them people of venezuela i told them i'm misty i told them about forgiveness i told them about reconciliation i told them about the future and the pace we want for our country to these officials and i'm here because i know that your team president of the national assembly he would defend the interests of the people be. joins us now from caracas cetera so how did all this play out what happened. well one why though was heading to the states a virus to be part of an open forum of a protest against the government when he was detained by intelligence officers that apparently belong to a newly created special operations why though was elected the president of the

national assembly on january fifth and he's been calling repeatedly said that he's ready to take over as interim president of venezuela and call for election he has always from the very beginning said that he won't not going to recognize the presidency also the little government is saying that who is under way the minister of information here in minnesota has said that those who try to detain him are a rogue agents that were trying to play a media show for the opposition that they have been detained and that right now they're in charge of the prosecutor here in caracas for the opposition this means that there is a fracture within the armed forces here in venezuela this is what they have been trying to achieve in the past month feeling to the armed forces saying that there's going to be and that misty law to protect them if there is a change in government in spite of this for the government this means that this would also be an excuse to become more radical and to take further measures to

control dissent what led to this escalation. what we have seen in the past week here is being sworn in for a second term in office members of the opposition again saying that they won't recognize his presidency saying that he was elected in a fraudulent election where the opposition almost did not take part also all of this has been supported by the organization of american states by the united states by the group among other countries in this some say are saying that this is pressuring the government in many way. what he'd seen this week is also a meeting for example with the united nations and negotiating the possibility that you money terry made could be brought into this country to help the millions of venezuela better suffering from an economic crisis in spite of this the government continues to say that venezuela is not tied to that even though they do not have

the support from the united states from the lima group and other countries in the world they have the support of those that matter at this point for venezuela that are russia and china. for us and caracas thank you. a left wing italian activist convicted of murder is on his way back to italy for almost forty years on the run his relatives say was arrested in bolivia on saturday as extradition is the result of cooperation between new right wing governments and brazil and italy and reports. his story reads like a novel he might have penned himself chesser a but tiste revolutionary convicted murderer and writer finally caught after forty years on the run down theone need. to be thought funny to many is not only to relatives and to victims but he entire country were mortified by governments that were protecting a terrorist like but. it all began in the one nine hundred seventy s. when he belonged to an armed leftists group it wanted to bring down the toilet in

government and in one thousand nine hundred eighty nine but he was jailed two years later he scaped and was convicted in absentia for the murders of four people including two police officers after living as a fugitive in france he fled to mexico but tiste later became a successful writer of crime novels before heading to brazil in two thousand and four he lived under the radar until he was arrested again in rio de janeiro in two thousand and seven but brazil's then president luis inacio lula da silva freed him granting him asylum three years later. the country's new president gyre but also not all pledged to extradite but he stayed during his campaign by the time judges ordered his extradition last month but t.c. was on the run again this time to bolivia he was caught by interpol on sunday bowl so narrow hill the arrest along with his son eduardo who tweeted brazil is no longer a land of bandits the little gift is coming but he got through i thank those who

make this change possible the new president of the brazilian republic. who took away the protect snow but tell us look there's. not a right not an ideology just some newspapers you have the impression he's almost a philosopher a free thinker he was condemned by different italian courts to various life sentences because he personally took the lives of innocents he's a communist mudra that's all for me he will rot in jail for the rest of his life but tiste has always maintained his innocence saying he skipped prison in one thousand nine hundred one because he believed he'd be tortured and killed almost four decades on he's now set to return to prison to begin serving a life sentence paltrow dirge on al-jazeera. paternalist sam cali who joins us live via skype we appreciate your time so forty years is a long time has there been a sustained push to get him. no no really.

well let's speak you from brazil's point of view he was caught in two thousand and seven the italian government have pressured brazil several times to concede extradition this was never given he was given a sign up by former president lula left leaning politician who's now in jail on corruption charges he says he's innocent just like that she says that. they in the last year we saw the italian government again trying to pressure. president michelle tema to concede an extradition charge for me but she. that was ignored at first but eventually caved in and he decided to sign it the extradition order for almost the italian government at which point it's believed that mr but she see fled to believe the way he entered illegally overland it's been said and basically he was hiding out there and you know this is

a century everything that's happened today is it happened because of the italian government and because of the believe you government is the reason the bush participation. the push that made it happen is coming from the italian part of and yet from the italian side of things they're telling government had been you know asking several times to extradite mr but she she and then of course when you have a man like joy ableson or rove who is you know raving li and he communist is one of his you know top speaking points he's always you know cool but you know against communism against socialism against communist criminals all of this kind of thing this is very much part of he's one of his top speaking points. so that obviously gave a signal to the italian government as well that they would have an ally in the midst of an hour in brazil but yet it's very much it's very much coming to look very much

a media spectacle here in brazil at the moment it is important to remember this is a new government that is did win by popular vote but he is definitely a divisive government and it has a very chaotic starts mr bows and arrows going way ten days in and we've had lots of flip flopping lots of like backtracking on decisions lots of kind of like you know. all paid and pieces written by ministers that have been badly received internationally so this is a good opportunity to them to to signal to their right wing allies abroad and also for their electorate. sam tally so i mean us from south thank you thanks very much. police in sudan have fired tear gas to disperse hundreds of anti-government protesters in khartoum are calling for president omar al bashir to step down and say at least forty people have been killed since the rest began three weeks ago over rising living costs at the government the number of casualties as

twenty four people morgan has more from khartoum. once again we've seen hundreds coming out into the streets and part of toom protesting against the rule of president obama bashir has been river running the country for twenty nine years the demonstrators have been chanting slogans like peace justice and freedom and they say that they want president almost here to end his rule and hand over power to an interim independent counsel twenty four people have been killed so far in the protest since his target in december according to the government but human rights watch and amnesty international and other rights groups with a number at least fourteen while activists in sudan who have been tracking the death toll say at least fifty five have been killed now the opposition have also come out some of the opposition groups have lent support to the people who have been demonstrating and say that these people have legitimate reasons to be demanding that the president step down and some people in the national government as well have been questioning the way the government has responded to the people who've been demonstrating and demanding that the president step down. that. we demand an independent transparent comprehensive investigation into the killings

because there have been information circulating and people have been saying look we don't know who killed these protesters or their militias are the security of the police we need to know who targeted those protesters. now this has been the longest wave of protests in sudan gained independence but the president has been very defiant he said he's going to try to improve economic situation and he said he was going to try to reduce the inflation rate which is that seventy percent the second highest in the world but the people who have been demonstrating say they've heard these promises over and over again and that the only thing that will convince them and stop them from going out and continuing to protest is think that the president has stepped down and he's handing over power to an interim council something that the president and the ruling party say will not happen until elections. next year and the president my run again the ruling party won the present to run again but that would require an amendment to the constitution which at the at the moment is the president from but from running for another term it's not clear how far these protests would go it's not clear where it would end the people are very defiant

they say they will not stop demanding the president step down until they see that power is headed over to a new government but the president said he's not going to step down as much as he's going to try to make reforms he is going to hold on to power so right now sudan is a crossroads between the people who are protesting demanding a new government and the current government which is very defiant very hold on to power and to elections next year the leader of the british opposition says he will table a motion of confidence if the prime minister respects a deal is rejected by carloman parliament that is. leaving the european union without a deal would be catastrophic and pacers had to vote on tuesday on the deal teresa mayes government agreed to with the european union. my own view is that i would rather get negotiated deal now for we can to stop the danger of a no deal an exit from the on the twenty ninth of march which would be catastrophic for industry catastrophic to trade and the long term effects of that would be huge i think parliament did vote for an amendment to the finance bill this week which

indicated its opposition to no deal but isn't totally specific on it we will do everything we can to prevent a no deal x. it still add on al-jazeera. the funeral of a rebel leader attendee of administered kashmir leads to yet more violence. on jonah hill in hungary were homelessness is now a criminal offense as the government project power over the powerless. and that's what we'll hear from roger federer who says the sport has taken a big hit ahead of the year's first grand slam tournaments. hello again to welcome back well here across united states we've been watching an east coast storm finally make its way out there towards the atlantic things are going to get better for a lot of places but we saw quite

a particularly alarming rate now with people spending days as you fraidy mentioned . it q but i think what's really problematic is that the government does and it is impression that the zimbabwean currency which is the border know it has the same value as the u.s. dollar which is not true and i think that's what's making a lot of people angry today we saw videos of generals asking them how they can see that the u.s. dollar and that's about when diallo and the border nodes of equal value when the petrol price is actually different you create a lot kul you pay the price that m.s.m. where an ounce but if you are worried now or easier you know from a foreign embassy or whatever else you have to be it had currency us and it's a different price for those people why why the stubbornness the obstinance to not acknowledge this. because if they do it it's an admission of failure the whole premise from when specially after the amounts the new minister of finance is that

you know we've got this one has to when and we have to implement price control but at meeting that it's not one is two one in that the one no to ease into ating woods gives power to the black market would give credence to what everybody has been saying that things are getting really difficult and the government needs a solution to the economy and it would also be difficult because the government is blaming whiston influences i just read a report earlier with the government was saying that you know the watching the civil society organizations that they think that being influenced by some western organizations to call for a shutdown or protests that in tomorrow so even they had needs that the currency is not equal then you know if it shows that the citizens are right and the citizens can't be right and zimbabwe are put into the government so what about the possibility of protests people are only going to stand for waiting in line for days

for so long. you know i think so but it does seem time after what happened on august for a state things in what winds up quite worry about practice staying as you know six people that short. that was really scary and i happened to be on the streets of prairie that so that was really really scary and i think a lot of people are worried and this government this particular faction of xenophobia is not afraid to use the military is not afraid to shoot at civilians and inquiry on what happened on august first happened and we still don't have the full details nobody has been brought to book nobody has been brought to account it's a that's something that people have the aware of that this government who easily equal soldiers on civilians but i think you know the civil society is going to change their best to push but you know i you know they they have they've made people afraid so people will say in the days but it doesn't mean that people

accepting theirs and i think jeanette and what is wrong that you must remember what would get impeached because then appear there as at the request as majority in parliament in these no way that you know people that are eating from the scene what you're going to impeach the president who's feeding them to put into you we always appreciate your expertise thank you so much for joining us from amherst you're welcome a crackdown on feel that by mexico's new president is leading to major congestion at ports more than seven million barrels of imported fuel are waiting to be offloaded from ships that's enough to keep mexico going for several days present andres manuel lopez obrador is trying to cut theft of fuel from pipelines by switching distribution from pipelines to trucks but it's led to major shortages at the pumps and queues of warriors at ports. thousands of asylum seekers some haiti who were denied entry in the united states two years ago have established a community on mexico's northwestern border many have been granted work visas by the government and are helping new migrants in just

together cannot continue the independent greeks are withdrawing from the government . the departure means prime minister alexis is left with a minority and may struggle to stay in power and get the deal passed by parliament . yet it gets here we will proceed immediately as is prescribed by the constitution with a vote of confidence in my government in order to move forward with a clear majority in resolving all the critical issues facing our country and society. commandoes formed a coalition with us in twenty fifteen and he's never been shy about expressing his views against the name change when the deal was announced last june it triggered of vote of confidence in the government took an ambivalent stance supporting the government but opposing the deal now that the deal has been approved in the former yugoslav macedonia has no room for ambivalence his political survival is at stake. last year's stance split the party and some independent greeks m.p.'s will support

the government bringing it closer to a governing majority in this week's vote does seem confident that he can get three hundred fifty one votes and by picking he he has already one hundred forty five m.p.'s so he needs another seeks and he clearly believes that he can pick up a few votes here and there in order to get to the one hundred fifty one threshold. the deal is meant to end the twenty seven year dispute and lift greece's objections to its neighbor joining nato and the e.u. . on friday the former yugoslav macedonian parliament approved a constitutional amendment to officially change the country's name to the republic of north macedonia now it's up to us to find a majority in the greek parliament to ratify the deal jump al-jazeera athens catholic church has already paid out more than three billion dollars in subsidies compensation now it's facing a federal investigation out of service christensen lammy has met some of the
