hello there america this is live from doha also coming up. mr speaker the house has spoken and the government will listen to persons treason may faces a no confidence vote itself to have breaks a deal suffers a huge defeat. or a bad vote soon to walk free off the incessant criminal court acquits the former ivory coast president of war crimes. and why these cultures there the nine eleven memorial in new york caused an uproar. an attack that lasted more than seventeen hours as a nairobi hotel is over kenya's president has offered his condolences to the families of the victims and his promise to find all those who were responsible instance began when attackers talked to three cars and destination a ball in the lobby at least fourteen people were killed. we will

seek out every person that was involved in the for funding planning and execution of this hideous act we will pursue relentlessly wherever they will be until they are held to account we will continue taking every step. to make our nation inhospitable to terrorist groups and their networks let's take a closer look at where the attack happens the dissident to hotel is part of a luxury riverside drive complex and can his cattle be many embassies noffs as a base in the area as in westlands district us about two columns as well another attack happened in two thousand and thirteen when our joy is at the scene in nairobi and so it just brings up spirit of what's happening there now.

right now we can see a lot of movement the there is a lot of evacuation by the police there's also the exit of the special forces earlier on we were able to see them getting good vehicles and speeding off from the location even just on the background that truck full of police forces. leaving leaving the location so that's what that is happening right now. but. we were able to have the. minister rather the security minister talk to us at a press briefing and he was saying that the surely the the the siege is over and the face one of. evacuating and rescuing the people who were trapped in is over and now they're on the face to of trying to guard every dance because this

is a criminal it's a crime scene and so they're trying to do all they can to gather all the everyone that there are. talking about when i mean wow i. guess i was i mean his name is my maternal he's from france and he was being rescued yesterday by the forces and. my to can you can you just tell us. what was going on and where were you when all this was happening yes but yesterday we were. we were. in. the car and from relieved at a sort of the five minutes after the first explosion and the people in the first explosion we hear they are shooting shooting your places but you have not security . at all. sorry the truck is giving us a bit of

a trouble but i guess. i guess the trucks are leaving actually with the forces. and. so this is what the has been happening all through so they're trying to back up a little bit so it's a very busy when your soldiers are determined to provide us into your position so i think we'll leave you there for the moment and we will of course here in the coming hours for more on the situation as it seems that the soldiers and the police and the ambulances are all evacuees saying that joy thanks very much. now a very sort of no confidence is set to be held against two reason mayes government the prime minister's breck's a deal was overwhelmingly rejected. in the u.k. words of great emotion they say and it could trigger a general election and live for us from westminster in london jenna another busy

day set for parliament. yes indeed seven pm that vote of confidence show deal to take place in the house of commons behind me called by the labor leader jeremy corbyn of course minutes after that enormous defeat for the prime minister last night invited indeed by the reason made to do so she's confident she'll win let me bring in my guest to talk about the various options on go in now professor john run from them school of economics john thanks for joining us as the markets try to price in risk here the uncertainty continues doesn't it in ordinary times and a defeat on this scale would have been the end of this prime minister instead she's likely to win a vote of confidence exactly and this is not ordinary times because but bracks it is actually skewed the whole political system here and what we've got is indecision in parliament about which way we go after this so you know you've got a

a no bricks it. option you've got an exit without a deal and you've got various other options that are being put up by parliamentarians but none of them carry a majority within the parliament at the moment but indeed so the search for certainty goes on to resume a says if she survives and. seems to have lost her and her having much longer lies today let's see if we can get over to david chase say he's in brussels and david what have we been hearing from the e.u. in response to this deal being rejected. nora we've been hearing a lot of dismay a sense of regret here at dia the huge majority against a reason may after so many months of negotiation and we've heard especially from the the e use chief negotiator we shut down the a and he said essentially that renegotiation

can begin but it would mean a concessions and changes to the red lines coming from the u.k. but that could be no fundamental changes to the most controversial issue which is the irish backstop let's hear what he said this morning in strides. procedural you'll be needed if the united kingdom chooses to shift its red lines if it makes that choice to be more ambitious and go beyond a simple free trade agreement which would be quite something in the european union would be immediately ready to go hand in hand with that development and give a favorable response. so the french minister for europe has also been speaking today natalie cole and she said that it really is a case of the european union has more to do more in its hands and dealing with this very messy divorce but importantly she said that the withdrawal agreement deadline

of march the twenty ninth could be moved both technically and legally that is possible and it would require a unanimous verdict from all twenty seven members of the european union so that looks probably the most likely scenario but to what date will be pushed back because we've got the european elections coming up but the end of may will it be before that will it be in june july there is an awful lot to discuss and it doesn't look as though the renegotiation will actually cover the critical areas for the brics it is which is that irish board a backstop so a lot of talking still the two hundred. oshea sion will not satisfy will be enough probably to get a parliamentary majority ok david plenty of questions and i saw some come from the thanks for us fans there from brussels where we connected now to jane hall in london's and back to you now jenna. yellower let me

pick up with my guest i'm sorry about that break up in our signal there i was talking to john run from the london school of economics and we were talking about risk in the markets and how no clarity has emerged out of this vote mrs may if she survives we'll talk to cross party and bs about their possible options she's ruled out customs union she's ruled out a second referendum it really doesn't take us anywhere does it not it doesn't it's in the road to nowhere and we've had this now going on for about two and a half years and we got through a deal that the parliament absolutely rolled out and now where is she going to go what's she going to do she's going to talk to europe we're getting messages from europe from the french and others that they might be some week away but nothing much more well boris johnson a former foreign minister says go back to brussels point to this deal stele them that if they scrap the backstop they can bring the deal back and we'll vote for it yeah but we have to take the words of boris johnson with a pinch of salt because he was foreign secretary and he was the most undistinguished foreign secretary we've seen in living memory so i don't think

she'll take very much notice of what he say john to resume a frame the entire debate in recent months as being a choice between her deal no deal or no breaks it is it too simplistic now to say well if her deal is off the table and we know there's a majority in parliament against no deal well now is the time to start looking seriously at the prospect of no brakes it no brakes it is going to be a very difficult one to to achieve but we might get there if we have a norway option which would mean we're basically still in the european union in effect but with no decision making powers that seems to be emerging as one of the options as you know. yourself covering this over the last few years it's been very very messy and the politicians trying to get a grip on this sub failed so far ok john room we'll leave it there professor john run with the law school of economics and still a great deal of uncertainty surrounding what happens next beyond that vote of confidence and to reason may seven pm this evening ok dana many thanks let's go

north now we can join and the haywood in dol beag and almost sixty percent of people where you are voted to leave the european union and people getting fed up with the government can't deliver that's right yeah well we have been. well a real sense of frustration here that with less than three months ago britain is still in this situation a lot of people keep saying we want to get on with it whatever that might be done will be as important because it's the heart of manufacturing the in the u.k. and in this region there are more manufacturing jobs than anywhere else in the country well let's get reaction to last night's vote and speak to chris hobson who's the director of policy at the east midlands chamber of commerce you represent more than a thousand businesses do you think many members will be paying for straight morning i think frustration is one word as we could we could choose if i turned off years trying to way forward it goes like we're no further thought that we were when we base whole thing started anything further back the march of people's massive

businesses need some certainty discipline the mental questions and he answered we don't have his answers yet business in itself that was divided about what should happen and what went on in twenty six states on the way there are so on and there's range in a very very big organizations of people no rolls royce shota down through the supply chain so large of small to medium sized businesses to supply them through so the woman bones that there isn't one single viewpoint that what people do you want is clarity so you know what they can plan for the moment but that doesn't exist you were talking about planning that what about contingency plans and are people prepared for whatever the outcome might be in the next few weeks or months. i mean the worrying thing is that all people probably on some a large businesses will have plans and probably already being inactive a lot of the smaller businesses might say you know what we feel we can be three to four pragmatic we'll wait and see what happens that's not a good option now march twenty ninth isn't that far away if we do end up with no deal on that day there were lots of businesses facing lots of challenges do you

think that is the worst case scenario. i think there'll be some businesses that feel no deal let's just get iron dome with a bit of authority figure yes this is the worst case scenario we trade internationally on money function supply chains work across the e.u. delays at customs increase tires these kind of things will fundamentally change a business model and we really try to avoid that chris thank you very much for joining us on al-jazeera so i think the words fair really uncertain say on frustration back to you in the studio and thanks very much indeed. still ahead head on al-jazeera gun crime controversy why brazil the president has decided to relax fire on those. hello again and welcome back we're here across indonesia we have been seeing quite

a delayed talks that what to be held in pakistan we have reconnected with come on hyder joining us from. tell us about what is going on with these talks. well as you mentioned. president trump special envoy finding a peaceful solution to of honest on has already rejected china he's been to india and although he was due to be in pakistan or whether we can that was born tuesday and then he was due today but that also postponed primarily because what the of one dollar bond have said that did discussions and awe they were told that the next round of talks were going clude the draw or talks about the possible red drawl of foreign forces some of one it's done but since then according to the embedded of run in stan the united states has started putting additional unilaterally they say

a three hundred million dollar loan to help meet the payments due in the coming months a series of credit rating credit a series of credit rating downgrades and political instability has made it harder for sri lanka to borrow internationally and a quarter of sri lanka's total foreign debt is owed to beijing which has lent billions for infrastructure projects but often and as has more from the colombo port city projects development sites. the area of the expanse to see behind me is part of that salvaged land the total extent of two hundred sixty nine hecht is and it's taken something like sixty nine million cubic feet of sand to create this new lead reclaimed area now the project not without controversy obviously critics talking about china muscling in pulling sri lanka paid to a death trap in fact this project was suspended by the current government when it first came to power pending investigations at all proper procedures had been

followed they subsequently got the green light and basically continue working now there is basically completion date of almost another twenty years twenty forty one is the time where this entire project will be up and running the talk about basically a city to rival hong kong dubai that is the sort of ultimate goal in terms of china china remains very closely associated with lanka taking on a criticism of dominance there was a number of made on tuesday for another loan at three hundred billion u.s. dollars at the government confirmed they are in negotiations to take from china which can go up to a billion dollars if the need arises so all of these issues the children can government will have to basically juggle its debt as it is it is facing a huge amount of debt repayments this year marc. one of the highest bidder payments

it has in recent times. brazil's new president jabil sonera has signed a decree relaxing gun ownership laws but many ferric make the staggeringly high violent crime statistics even worse barbara and go to reports. brazil's new far right president believes arming his population would decrease crime there were sixty four thousand murders in brazil in twenty seventeen forty three thousand of them were gun related these statistics make brazil the bloodiest country in the world outside war zones now show here both scenario is following through on a campaign promise him and he signed a decree that will make it easier for people with no criminal record to buy up to four guns and keep them at home in tow. what i can say with satisfaction is that i signed this degree made for a lot of good citizens for the good citizens to have peace inside their holes that

edict doesn't extend to carrying weapons in public even if concealed that right remains restricted to police public and private security personnel and the military the latest government data shows that out of the country's two hundred ten million people three hundred thirty thousand registered to have a gun but the justice ministry says there are some eight million weapons in the country illegally i think that this decree very clearly opens the way for violence in the countryside a group that monitors violence says data shows an increase in the number of firearms in circulation correlates to the rise in the number of gun related deaths . i think that increasing the number of weapons in a society is going to cause harm and it will increase by once. last year brazil deployed thousands of soldiers and police in response to a huge spike in. violent crime but the decision may have had

a negative effect with accusations of human rights violations and the rate of homicides spiking up by five percent over the same period in twenty seventeen the newly elected president may think this is the answer to bring down crying about more than half of his population on fired up by his plan barbara and al-jazeera and also exhibits in new york has been removed sparking protests it was never nine eleven memorial and included a flag of saudi arabia kristensen them explains at first glance they're hardly offensive giant pieces of candy wrapped in the flags of g. twenty nations countries that represent the world's twenty leading industrialized emerging economies but seeing the flag of saudi arabia as part of a public art exhibit so close to the september eleventh memorial made terry strada furious to have it anywhere near nine eleven memorial let alone right there beside
