exactly in that building behind me she's met with friends and also met with his fiance trying to get a picture of what exactly happened on that day exactly four months ago now it's not clear at the moment where the she's been given access to those recordings that turkey has of the murder also she was wanting access to forensic and scientific evidence so we do understand that she will be issuing a statement to the media in the next couple of days or so with her preliminary findings what now well though we're expecting a full report from the un special rapporteur in june to the human rights council i think it's significant because it comes at a time when it seems that all countries are normalizing relations again with saudi arabia this is of course a political minefield if you will all countries very much invested in getting the most political mileage out of this but also afraid to really damage their relationships with the kingdom so she's doing this in her own capacity i think it's an important time and certainly in her words the gruesome killing the it has grave

consequences is she really wants to put it back on the map because in her words the the united nations nor any of the member states are pushing hard enough for independent investigation i think it's worth remembering that for months on regardless of saudi arabia saying that it has indicted eleven men five of those facing the death penalty we do not know who they are we don't know who ordered the killing and most importantly still the body of jamal khashoggi has not been found. the taliban says president donald trump appears to be serious about pulling u.s. troops out of afghanistan a spokesman for the armed groups as a foreign withdrawal is the first goal towards resolving the seventeen year conflict trungpa said american forces will leave from the taliban made to a peace deal this week the u.s. envoy said to have been agreements in principle towards a framework feel that it was drawn up without input from the afghan government which the time of honor god's. still ahead on al-jazeera new

states will therefore suspend its obligations under the n f treaty effective february second. the white house maintains the u.s. has adhere to the intermediate range nuclear forces treaty well russia has not in that time it accuses russia of covertly developing and fielding a prohibited missile system that poses a threat to european allies u.s. forces stationed there the u.s. did not give specific examples of violations. russia has consistently denied its breaking the agreement the us secretary of state says freshness and violation what's your response were not and we proved this many times but they don't want to listen the agreement was signed during the cold war by u.s. president ronald reagan and russia's mikhail gorbachev in one nine hundred eighty seven when most agree it's not perfect it did halted escalating arms race between the two superpowers us president donald trump has long been

a critic of the treaty. and friday he suggested it might be time to negotiate a new one we're listening to and here we should be the only one i hope that we're able to get everybody in a very big and beautiful room and what new treaty that would be much better still there's concern the u.s. did not exhaust its diplomatic options and as trump pressures north korea to give up its nuclear arsenal many question why he would relax any missile restrictions on russia it actually opens the door for russia to deploy more of these missiles and opens the door for a new european missile race some analysts have speculated the trumpet ministration isn't just worried about russia. china is not bound by the treaty there's criticism it's been gaining military advantage deploying large numbers of missiles with ranges beyond the current limits there are now just six months for the

the israeli occupied west bank is hardly devoid of barriers but few tell the story of division here in quite such a dramatic way this is road for three seventy northeast of jerusalem the left side is for those with palestinian papers the right for those bearing israeli documents side by side but each part of an entirely different road network some of labeled it the apartheid road last month palestinian and israeli activists blocked the highway calling it discriminatory part of plans to annex the west bank opening the road in january the israeli public security minister said it would help create mutual life for palestinians and israelis ensure security and strengthen israeli sovereignty. for israeli settlers it allows for fast direct access to jerusalem without having to queue at checkpoints and while the palestinians half of the road is cut off from jerusalem it has sped up traffic going north and south but mohamed has brought his vegetables here from hebron in the southern west bank. driven by. yes we

palestinians are restricted and limited israelis can use any entrance and any road they like but this road does make it easier for us provided there are no other obstacle and. palestinian leaders say any such benefits will be overwhelmed by the future cost as stark and as concrete an expression this is of the current situation in the occupied west bank in terms of separation between israelis and palestinians in terms of continued israeli control here there is for many palestinians also a fear that this is a precursor to a wider separation further down the road. this stretch of highway is part of a plan to connect the palestinian cities of ramallah and bethlehem but the other part of that plan involves extending illegal settlement building east of jerusalem in a way that palestinians say encircled the city and split the west bank into it had to connect north and south but of course they made it in a way. to enable the connection between east and west for the israeli people to

without saying that we are blocking the middle of the future think. for the moment road for three seventy is two things the time saving link for israelis and palestinians both as they travel between separated zones and a monument to the unresolved conflict between them are a force that al-jazeera in the occupied west bank. castle have stunned the morning while of winning the asian cup for the first time they beat japan three one in the final and upper darby to cap a remarkable tournament they almost never do cattery fans in abu dhabi for the match because of the blockade imposed by the hosts along with saudi arabia bahrain and egypt but plenty of celebrations going on in doha round which some course. oh well it's hard race overstate the level of achievement at this council to hold up the game insist on any real trouble success at the asian guy. but yet here they

mean it's become so essential and i believe it's an international cultural legacy that we need to preserve and it's not so easy with consumer technology that's designed eventually to burn out and for the past year it's been switched off for safety reasons a video of how it should look now greets visitors. it was the job of children john moe a curator and friend of the artist to preserve his work. even if one of the t.v.'s wasn't working people would notice it and say the management here is terrible at the cutting edge of modern art the first video artists were working with a device that was the very embodiment of the age ok the average t.v. set only had a life expectancy of about ten years but that didn't matter as long as the world was mass producing them but now it isn't art museums around the world have been stockpiling used t.v.'s to keep aging video installations going for others the

solution is in digital technology playing flat screen images inside the curved screens of old sets. it's time the op museums and experts agree on a global standard for preserving video art. chung says the artist himself embrace technology and wouldn't have minded what solutions are found. he never took his art so seriously i think he would say it's not a bad idea to replace the t.v.'s the t.v.'s of today any innovation to keep the screens flickering not let the light go out. rob mcbride al-jazeera sold. you're watching out to service our top stories. has rejected

the stories that we're covering this week to take shape in caracas washington is supporting it and the u.s. news media who are usually tough on president trump make nice for a change serbia faces its biggest anti-government demonstrations since the fall of the last of it but you wouldn't know it from watching the news this fake news and trump yet again but this time it's not the president it's the first lady and in malaysia a former prime minister releases a music video just ahead of going on trial in one of the world's biggest cases of corruption. you know the news. when we reported on venezuela two weeks back we focused on how the domestic media were covering the economic and political crisis there however when a relatively obscure opposition figure want to go declared himself interim president he was quickly backed by the u.s. and many other governments including right wing leaders in neighboring brazil and colombia with media outlets they're following suit the u.s.

news media covered the push to remove president nicolas maduro without saying what that attempt if successful would amount to which is a coup instead the focus has been on the legitimacy of last year's election which is a roll of. point and it focused on the dire economic situation but it mostly stayed away from the role that successive american administrations through economic sanctions have played in handicapping the venezuelan economy as a rockies iranians libyans and others will tell you this is not the first time that the us has taken a disproportionate interest in the governance of a country loaded with oil washington has a playbook for this kind of thing and so apparently to the u.s. news media our starting point this week is caracas. to swearing in ceremonies two weeks apart in qatar both of which left much to be desired january tenth nicolas maduro sworn in for

a second term as president after an election last year that the u.n. and the u.s. all said fail to meet accepted stand it's january twenty first. the head of the national assembly swear some self in as president an office he's never run for and the us and many other countries quickly announce he's their man. one hand raised to the heavens you proclaim president having no electoral mandate and having no religion or constitution with it in the seat. before you go and the count that's how you do it nowadays eighty percent of venezuelans have no idea who's the who this man is but he is very well known in d.c. we know that not only did mike pence home one. day before he declared himself president but in fact the u.s. government has been working with the opposition for decades so this iteration is

dramatic and i think the simplification of that situation to good is embodies cowboys and. if you mental for the standing of the situation in part of the world. why do was partly. educated in the us he's a protege of opposition figure leopoldo lopez who the majority government has under house arrest he was first elected to the national assembly in two thousand and ten however he only became head of that body early last month why don't argue is that his claim to the presidency is legally sound since the constitution allows for the head of the national assembly to do that if the assembly deems the office of the president to be vacant however material supporters argue that go i doze move and washington's role in backing it are tantamount to a coup which is a side of this story that doesn't get much play in the us news media it's basically a failed state so i think at this point they're hoping that they really don't have

anything to lose by endorsing this clearly represents a coup in my opinion just recently john bolton has been forced to graft with a document that said five thousand troops to colombia and so therefore we can see the american actions are building up possibly military intervention and yet what we see from the media is they refuse to use the word crude and the reason for this is that the united states media always follows the pronouncements and projections of the us government however it is also also means. illegal seizure of power in venezuela what we have is a country and a government where the rule of law no longer applies where the government itself has violated laws repeatedly just last year just in the same. when there is no rule of law then who is to decide what is and is not

a law for move off after the city government allowed me to have been doing is to only use the term coup by quoting utilize my daughter we obviously he sees it as an attempted coup anderson billy writes that it should be reported that that is his. you too. a spade a spade and an attempted coup an attempted coup is not to be found. certainly there is no denying the severity of the problems within us with. responsibility with the chap as some of the administration's have in for instance of the humanitarian crisis there is no denying that there is also no denying that what we are seeing here is that mainly us. tend to. selling a humanitarian intervention in venezuela would be easier for the trumpet ministration if not for the us is long track record of engineering the overthrow of leftist governments in latin america there was nine hundred fifty four and

guatemala nine hundred sixty four brazil chile and argentina in the one nine hundred seventy s. the list goes on the new york times has its own track record of finding reasons to support those coups it recently published this piece on venezuela blaming the state of the economy on the madeira government's mismanagement and corruption other factors the steep drop in the price of oil the economic sanctions placed on by the obama administration since widened under president trump go completely unmentioned although destabilizing economies through sanctions and other means before intervening or invading has been an american tactic from chile in one thousand nine hundred fifty three right through to the iraq invasion in two thousand and three. sanctions are an act of war and they hurt the most poor and vulnerable sectors of the population. you can look at iraq in the late ninety's sanctions were genocidal

actually took the lives of five hundred thousand babies in iraq that's more children than. hiroshima and. you know is the price worth it. i think this is a very hard choice but the price we think the price is worth it the media don't really report it so it's not too surprising that the u.s. media is completely covering up the fact that there are u.s. led sanctions on venezuela that just under trump alone has cost the venezuelan economy six billion dollars the sanctions probably aggravated the situation in venezuela but it's time that a lot in america we also assume responsibility to say in some of this stuff it's our fault it's time also to recognize that a huge part of the economy was mismanaged and the international community has been offering motherlode of humanitarian aid and he's repeatedly and systematically hast denied that there are certain ominous echoes. with two thousand and three

in that now we have a very hawkish administration in washington that is talking of intervening and we have large sections of the us media. in effect. acting as cheerleaders it is far more important to shut down the material government than our government and i think donald trump is leading there that's going to happen that's going to bring us together but it's too easy to think oh here we go again you can only hope peaceful change comes some sort of negotiated settlement which would pave the way to free and fair elections. nicolas maduro is trying to go around the mainstream taking his message on the line in this case directly to the american people. however madeira has got problems much closer to home this past week this headline how the u.s. can drown the duros economy appeared in one of colombia's biggest papers. the

hostility madeira was now we're tracking in regional news outlets is a reflection of the rise of the political right in latin america it also has to do with self interest. the millions of migrants venezuela is now producing spilling across borders. the media in south america has shifted decisively against the the venezuelan government they have seen the that disaster that's unfolding in venezuela wave upon wave of venezuelan migrants so the media in these countries are party reflecting that in brazil and other countries where you now have right wing in some cases far right wing governments that the media also has a vested interest in reflecting the ideological viewpoint of the city government none of which reflects well on the news outlets involved or bodes well for nicolas maduro there are shortages of food and medicine the essential elements of

journalism accuracy objectivity context have also grown scarce there's a surplus of discontent on the streets one too many politicians calling himself president and too much oil under the ground to go unnoticed in washington so much at stake so many political actors with an interest and so much at issue in the coverage. we're looking at other media stories that are on our radar this week with one of our producers flo philips flo two weeks ago we looked at a government crackdown on domestic news media in sudan one newspaper in particular algerie to its offices raided its journalists harassed conditions of since grown worse they have that kind of harassment and censorship is now being felt across the board the state intelligence agency has been busy confiscating copies of and i'll tie it to sudan's leading newspapers and as of now sixty six genocide been arrested

and at least six correspondents working for foreign media have had their accreditation is revoked including reporters without jazeera and the turkish news agency on the dollar and all of this because president omar al bashir wants to keep a lid on the coverage of demonstrations on the street that have been underway since december right and he said just that speaking at a press conference in neighboring egypt he suggested that the media were over blowing the story we do not claim there is no problem he said but it is not of the size that some of the media portray this is an attempt to copy the arab spring. is right on one thing one of the slogans being used by sudanese protest is the people want to fall of the regime was made famous by uprisings in tunisia and other arab states and given the eight year anniversary of egypt's revolution last week he might be feeling a tad nervous on to the u.k. now where the daily telegraph has paid substantial damages and apologised

unreservedly to malani a trump after the paper got a story on her wrong so wrong it seems we're not just talking one mistake the telegraph is admitting to a whole heap of them the story the mystery of millennia by american author and john this new nobody was an excerpt from a book she wrote about the women in president trump's life after an unusually swift settlement the telegraph took the story off the web and issued a point by point correction this is just part of it. mrs trump was not struggling in her modeling career before she met mr trump and she did not advance in her career due to the assistance of mr trump now here's the twist bernie's book was published four months ago and burley said lawyers had gone through it carefully so it's been out there in an interview with the washington post but basically accused the telegraph of caving in to the threat of a lawsuit and said that by calling what it published false reporting the paper had actually defamed her and all of this was perfect fodder for trump obvious.
