former president hugo chavez he wanted to have. we've. but what happened. in spending that money and. all those project that they were supposed to realize they didn't realize then evidence of mismanaged funds can be seen across the country in unfinished infrastructure projects like this half built overpass even renovation the national parliament building a multi-million dollar effort financed in part with bit to get even money is still far from completed more than seven years since construction began. making his first public appearance since the protests started on february seventh president condemned the violence on the streets but didn't outline any steps toward finding a resolution. and aid to the haitian president says the flames of the discontent are being fanned by the president's political opponents. and politicians always

want to get rid of the president after a year or two that's why we have this chronic instability the president wants and he's open to have a frank dialogue. while the latest protests in haiti are linked to the bad look at even scandal discontent with the government has been mounting since the aftermath of the two thousand and ten earthquake where more than one hundred thousand people were killed with widespread poverty a declining economy and new evidence of systemic corruption and you're finally reached a boiling point on the streets of the haitian capital we're in downtown port au prince where there isn't an easy call as people pick up the pieces after more than a week of protests there are still roadblocks set up that are preventing the free flow of traffic and the tension that seems to suggest that the unrest may not be over just yet anti-government demonstrators have renewed calls for more protests continuing to demand the resignation of the president a condition that has made no. indication of accepting the more moderate figures of

the opposition are calling for a national dialogue that includes voices from all sectors of haitian society however remains to be seen both sides will be able to find a lasting resolution to the ongoing political crisis. whether is next but still ahead on al-jazeera. they. have a prime minister. back as she tries to renegotiate a deal. and taking its business elsewhere why amazon no longer wants to set up shop in new york. hello the weather set fabric cross into china across the philippines special little

hello again i missed. a recap of the news this hour venezuela's president has accused the u.s. of trying to destabilize his country in an interview with al-jazeera nicolas maduro also criticized european nations for supporting u.s. military intervention. india's government is promising a strong response against pakistan which it claims for the west attack an indian administered kashmir and decades at least forty four indian soldiers were killed by a car bomb on thursday. u.s. president donald trump says he will declare a national emergency to secure funding for a border war with mexico congress passed a spending bill without money for the border to avoid another government shutdown. chinese president xi jinping is expected to meet members of the u.s.

trade delegation as part of efforts to end a trade war between the wilds to largest economies u.s. treasury secretary stephen a new chin is in beijing to work out an agreement on tariffs the two sides are trying to reach a deal before march the fast when the u.s. plans to increase levies on two hundred billion dollars worth of chinese imports adrian brown has more from beijing. well this trade dispute has now been rumbling on for more than seven months there have been five rounds of talks but in the words of one of president trump's advisors the vibe this time is good we will note just how good later on friday before the u.s. team returns to washington they have been meeting president xi jinping that in itself is a hopeful sign i think what we're likely to have is perhaps at best a partial agreement on the issue of tariffs to perhaps bring a temporary halt to the tariff war or perhaps an extension of the negotiating

period remember the deadline for negotiations to end and for more terrorists to be slapped on chinese goods is early march so that deadline is getting closer and closer there are though many areas where china's leaders have refused to budge especially over u.s. demands for structural reforms in china's economy essential the united states wants china's economy to be a market economy to become a market economy like the united states but under president xi jinping that is unlikely to happen especially in the year when china is commemorating the seventieth anniversary of the founding of the people's republic of china when the communists came to power. britain's prime minister tourism a has suffered another defeat after m.p.'s rejected a motion to endorse her government's approach to brecht's it the u.k. is due to leave the european union on march the twenty ninth from london reports the ice to the right two hundred fifty eight the news of the last three hundred

face the government's initial withdrawal agreement was rejected by a record majority of m.p.'s last month the nose to the left four hundred and thirty two forcing the prime minister back to brussels to renegotiate the controversial backstop insurance policy in the deal designed to avoid customs checks between northern ireland and the republic of ireland this latest vote isn't legally binding but it's a huge embarrassment for the government especially was trying to secure concessions from brussels. before the vote britain's breck's secretary said the government's main goal is to produce a deal the whole of politics to support. as we prepared to exit the european union this government is focused on its most pressing task to deliver a legally binding change to the back story and we are committed to delivering on marquee demand to reserve as promised parliament will have another chance to express its opinion on her breaks it plans at the end of the month before that it's

a race against time to find fresh common ground with the e.u. . the hopes of a significant breakthrough are slim brussels insists it will not reopen the original withdrawal agreement or change its position on the irish border. theresa may still believes there's a battle to be won in brussels a growing number of british m.p.'s don't the view from europe is of a nation increasingly at odds with itself. well leaders are gathering in germany for the fifty fifth munich security conference iran's foreign minister is attending after his country was criticized at an international meeting in warsaw on thursday. has. this is the most important annual gathering of global security a platform for world leaders and decision makers to listen to different views about some of the most pressing issues conflicts and political crises and iran is likely

to top the agenda u.s. vice president mike parents who leads a large american delegation is going to reiterate what he said in wausau the need for the international community to further isolate iran and for the e.u. to withdraw from the two thousand and fifteen uclear deal the conference will address issues such as the war in syria the conflict in yemen the fight against and the g.c.c. quizes there are other issues which will be closely monitored by the media particular bilateral meetings between the americas and the russians against the backdrop of the decision by trump to withdraw from the intermediate range nuclear forces treaty or meetings between the russians and the chinese against a backdrop of the trade war. was particular about this year is this ongoing debate in europe about the future of the international liberal order has prevailed says nineteen forty five which in an era of multi latter is

a now the biggest concern of the e.u. leaders is that with the winds of populism and dictatorship. the international liberal order could fall apart and the world could in turn and chartered territory . the u.s. senate foreign relations committee is demanding answers about the killing of saudi journalist jamal khashoggi both republicans and democrats signed a letter to secretary of state mike pompei are requesting documents they also want to know why the white house missed a deadline to respond to a previous request for an investigation mike hanna has more from washington d.c. . well it's another salvato in the ongoing struggle between congress and the trump administration over the investigation into the death of jamal khashoggi the senior democrat on the senate foreign intelligence committee has sent a letter to the secretary of state demanding that all material relevant to the investigation by the department into the murder of jamal khashoggi be handed over

to the senate by february the twenty eighth now back in october the senate sent to the trumpet ministration a letter demanding a full investigation into the death and to report back within one hundred twenty days or that report that period expired the last friday there was no response from the trumpet ministration apart from a letter from the secretary of state outlining the sanctions that have been imposed against seventeen saudi individuals in connection with the murder of jamal khashoggi however bob menendez insists that this is simply not enough pointing out too that the senate had requested trump administration to investigate specifically the possible involvement of the crown prince mohammed bin solomon in the murder of jamal khashoggi so this once again heightening this ongoing struggle between congress and the trump administration into the investigation into the murder of jamal khashoggi and the comfortability for that particular death being attributed

perhaps to senior saudi leaders. the youth vote is likely to play a major part in nigeria's presidential and parliamentary elections on saturday jobs are increasingly scarce and the cost of living is rising. met young people in the capital are birger who are looking for change. absolutely mohammed says he's voting for the first time in saturday's election but he is frustrated the twenty year old from his school and can't find work to try and survive he sells water on the street taking the lot of them are like here i want the government to look after the poor and give us jobs i also want to pull titian's to deal with insecurity in the country. when president mohammad you bihari won the election four years ago he promised to fix nigeria's economy it's an important issue. mine to the million nigerians are extremely poor they're not for extremely poor it's

a major concern and. millions have been out of jobs within the last four years so it's an important conversation for two thousand and nineteen. it's africa's biggest economy but that hasn't translated into jobs the majority of voters in africa's most populous nation are thirty five or younger presidential candidates promise to create more jobs if they win but some nigerians say they are tired of the promises they want action. you mohammed is one of those losing patience he repairs motorcycles but there are days when he has no clients and that means no money to take home. are so illiterate but we can go to property in riyadh. he's waiting for someone to give us just why we always go madiba there's

a lot. the twenty five year old like so many unemployed young people is hoping one day he will find a steady job how to toss al-jazeera up which u.s. tech giant amazon is ditching a billion dollar plan to build its headquarters in new york the deal announced in november was set to bring twenty five thousand jobs to the city the political opposition and a backlash from taxpayers has forced the online retailer to abandon the project christensen amy reports. the announcement that amazon was canceling plans to move to this new york neighborhood brought cheers from city council member jimmy bramer and a grassroots coalition of opponents amazon chose to walk away rather than fight for what it believed in him. but not everyone was celebrating. oh some local residents came out to heckle the politician a minute upset over the loss of jobs amazon had promised to bring twenty five

thousand of them and local investment these guys didn't act on the behest of the community act in the behest of their own political careers period new york's mayor and governor were among dozens around the country that fought to woo amazon offering nearly three billion dollars in tax incentives and construction grants to bring the company right to this neighborhood in new york city but almost as soon as the deal was announced there was opposition and backlash. local legislators who weren't consulted on the deal held hearings and citizens paraded amazon representatives concerned about increasing congestion as well as the cost of living in their neighborhood. while property owners and some trade unions baber the deal and the revenue it would bring other unions complained about the company's labor practices and you know there's no reason that we should have ever been giving or even considering giving three billion dollars to the richest corporation in the entire world and to the richest man in the entire world amazon said in

a statement that it was clear they didn't have the necessary support of local politicians the polls show the move was supported by seventy percent of new yorkers the governor called it a loss but i've never seen a more absurd situation where political pandering and obvious pandering so defeat it's a bona fide economic development project amazon says it will not look for a replacement site at this time instead focusing on its existing offices and expansion plans elsewhere in the country kristen salumi al jazeera new york. hello i missed. and these are the headlines some news just coming in out of spain prime minister petra sanchez has called a general election which will be held on april twenty eighth the announcement was

expected to parliament rejected the minority government's budget proposal this week this will be the third election in less than four years that as well as embattled president has accused the u.s. of trying to destabilize his country in an interview with al-jazeera nicolas maduro also criticized european nations for supporting u.s. military intervention. i think that some europeans made a mistake when they supported the american war in iraq can you ask any of the coalition countries was it necessary to intervene militarily in iraq and divide it and kill millions of its people i think they also made a mistake when they bombed libya and killed more than one hundred thousand civilians can these errors be corrected i think they mean mistakes in their destructive policy approach in syria and are making more mistakes from venezuela india's government is promising a strong response against pakistan which at them is for the worst attack in indian

administered kashmir the decades at least forty four indian soldiers were killed by a car bomb on thursday pakistan denies supporting the group that's claimed responsibility u.s. president says he will declare a national emergency to secure funding for a border war with mexico congress passed a spending bill without money for the wall to avoid another government shutdown democrats say they may file a legal challenge against the move haiti's president says he will not step down a week after violent protests or the deaths of at least eight people demonstrators are angry over rising prices and corruption chinese president xi jinping is expected to meet members of a u.s. trade delegation as part of efforts to end a trade war between the world's two largest economies u.s. treasury secretary steven minu chin is in beijing to work out an agreement on a tariffs the two sides are trying to reach a deal before march the first when the u.s.

plans to increase levies on two hundred billion dollars worth of chinese imports next up one zero one east. the week began with a ninety day truce in the to protect us china trade. the world's largest supplier of liquefied natural gas is leaving the biggest oil coal to we bring you the stories that are shaping the economic world we live in counting the cost on al-jazeera. a team of chinese scientists are traveling to places no human has ever been. in barking on a daring deep sea mission and a hunt for rare resources and a new species. i'm steve on this episode

a one on one east we go on board with so much china's top engineers and scientists as china explores the depths of the indian ocean. i think ari ari ari the house of which they might turn if say i will. die i want to cut out to start. chinese doing laps of a chinese research in the middle of the indian ocean. ocean and the shape of engineering in college a lot of all of my classmates. have no chance so god bar the she. has a chance. she's a trainee submersible pilot and she's anxiously awaiting her first ever deep sea dive which no woman from china has ever done before you know she's part of

china's mission to be a world leader in these final frontier. they're in a rice against countries like russia india and japan. if she gets the chance to dive she'll go nearly three kilometers under the sea to search for new mineral race horses and signs of life. maybe i can friend a song new alamosa new plans and it's a scene that is can't be a friend before but human but i read it and it made me i can't get we it's a name. and there's. there have animal in the word and there was johnny and wow it's cool that. she's working alongside ninety five crew members on this ship just four of them when. they're

also carrying fixed john long a three person submersible that can take researches deep under the sea than any other machine and. looking for the nation the forms will fall off a slow ward where we my feet come to fall like how we feel when being might be coming from that's cool part. of the four women on this mission one of them is a microbiologist dr who will study whatever life forms are brought to the surface plants and animals including tiny microbes known as ikea. they come hand though mario are hi pam fisher and the are high a price and they kind use is more of basic count processor neutral and two so i and that's kind of the show where they're leaving and that's kind of the compound where that you can you out where you are is similar to what was happening you like

billions of years old gold when there was no live in earth is six i see me you look for the live well me me me me. here's our goal or to look for the lives us between the company to different for the recess this is. what many scientists believe evolution began to email motions the creatures found may be the most basic and systems of the mind morning. and there is one type of habitat in the deep ocean where you expects to find an abundance of them. there is a big hero say that all kinds of life form might be from title what has all one is a week where the life was already making the news in years i'll go and i know they are no other goal i always had told it was size walford. yeah we shoot you make

science very exciting which is such a these exciting this is what i want to do science and i feel exhausted i feel alive i feel myself well i'm too sighs everyone's anxious to get the first dive under way you want samples of marine life down there fuel. is. easy and the other trainee pilots want to see how it's really done else it's very hard and to the heart of this mission professor tao wants to find hydrothermal vents and shot the size of their mineral deposits is very exciting because this is the first for the indian ocean for the chinese and the the first time for the balance for us hydrothermal vents are like springs of burning hot water heated by deep sea volcanoes the law of ones will guide us to our target extinct things like an extinct volcano mt chimneys have cooled off leaving richland is of mineral

deposits for the taking getting too close to a lot. the end could endanger the scouts and its crew but the rewards of exploring any event are enormous. kobolds manganese kaka and other precious metals is a very very credits bet for us to to search for the hottest will feel good and us honestly for. another bout to see them explore the dragon vent field an area known for underwater volcanic activity. it's near where the antarctic australasian and african tectonic plates make it. even if it be down to drag and feel. the fear when tao will pilot the first dive one of only two pilots qualified to drive the submersible jour own.

he's the expert training young recruits like he. i hope for they will go out forever quickly quickly yes and in that time maybe maybe they can. just use my forty dives we only have two professional pilot and we would have a lot more than that to me and also you know more than into our country so i assume gains a. responsibility to me even knows that one day soon it will be her turn in the driver's seat for style yes maybe it's a lost interest. so i laid off it right. finally the ship is in position. the submersible has been checked and food is ready to pilot the first dive. you'll be going like three kilometers under water.

the crew have enough oxygen and power want to last when taining hours. but lots can go wrong in that time. it takes over an hour to reach the bottom of the our ship. the deeper the submersible goes the darker and colder. dropping to two degrees celsius. four hours pass with little signs of life. then the tains lead geologist professor tao spotted something. with a lot so much hope greg ship so i think that's the area we're looking for.

all. only when the area is teeming with life which means they must be close to hydrothermal vents. aware of any lucky we found at the. at the big freeze there that's the area where the that's the very exciting. at last they spot the vents or. do need to be careful as they move the sob closer to the boiling hot water. when you'll was with a walk when was very busy very busy. you needed to construct all your and which. the submersible is built to withstand extreme elements but it has an achilles heel its window is. the water spewing from a hydrothermal vent can reach four hundred degrees celsius. if they get too close

the plexiglass windows would melt and the sub would implode. but fernie is to get close to the bed to take a sample of its crossed. but there's a problem. then realized that are left to the window was on the first black smoke. and out of the same time all or right window was was aware america goes to the remains of the ocean current has pushed the sob over the stream of a vent the window may not withstand the hate adjuster. us into. he manages to move the why.

then not out of danger yet. to get the sobbed. back to the surface i need to drop to hate whites. but only one white with a sense that it's a massive problem. with real fos being left in the ocean. the submersible has seven directional propellers two of these are off with rusty but they designed for steering around the ocean floor north for pushing the south op three thousand maces with white still attached i was right about it because of just two or. cannot fail. come on anyone. the sob barely moves.

and by now they've been under for almost ten al it's. soon to run out of. the sod stocks rise it's. finally breaks the surface. and. when the sob is safely back in its cradle the tamed realizes how lucky they ahd to be a lot on the ball coming up to thirty five but not all of them but through the window more than your credit the better the book the most

dangerous. oh. so dangerous. the vent scorched the sob just sent to meet his from its window where it rerig close to the amount you always get them out there in the heat if you're by the very very close three of them oh oh. oh no food noise how close he came to disaster to die and his thoughts turned to his family back home in china. how he only knew one and a half years old. my. father yes i mean daddy that. he's dedicated his life to this job that he loves but it's come at great personal cost. rule mr manning seems like my first song sister just missed the best of my song it made me so professed to marcescens. d'souza to her if i have

a choice to tough less in the future i hope how to stay with my son to stay with my. parents food looks forward to the day he's trying to ease will step up and start piloting their own mission it's. just one task that this is where it enters our idea of those uncomfortable i lost the strong i tell myself again ok i must do it. it's my job. but before you get her a chance to dive experienced a must try again. they yet to bring back any samples. so the damage is repaired and excitement builds for the next dive but.

this time biologists. dr is anxious as she waits for diet and said. this guy is making salad even really good at six of them. though this is really the first time that these kinds of women in my life and of what i. see the search for. the live there must be a story it must be worrying much different than what we see on the mat or with what the apple media release and allow the weirdo's. their mad scientists. sampling microorganisms from hundred fans will give insight into origin of life itself. but they need to get the samples safely to the sun. out of

the crowd of our outfits and so i feel a little to play sure as straight as you go i responded needed to know these things up artists that. i was. so stressed i don't just see. the sob is in position. that you is the moment of truth. because. he would allow the way he are the only. it's been three hours. then the submersible stops transmitting dollars and. they're gathering samples from nearly three kilometers below what happened. it worked. her. finger.

when they bring mr. ya think straight yes and here we describe the sound was harmless and give it away that's probably. also smile it's a which kind of compound in my eye yet it really and the highly placed. we put this sample in the my mouse baby with well i do is at least. specially designed equipment has carefully preserved live organisms under the same extreme high pressure conditions as where they leaving the day. i think the face of the ice. oh it's a little girl's and you know we can look at what good it will be as live.

as it turns out minerals at this low spreading ridge are is rich as predicted making dragon field a prospect for mining. but what's even more valuable is the discovery that many creatures here are different types of crabs snails and worms and more all of them than biologists ever expected to listen so good either this is only the no yes it is amazing. and the sad mostly on the buy it has a big issue appeal to the ara while the boy is still interest the nothing michael will says sample for their own research so we're talking about deep sea finding new enzymes in two compounds that might help with medicine and the other and the about x. after you take them for a long time you go to resistance for the back and about the only need to look for a new form of them were to go play me to the sea.

in the middle of the ocean a five week mission can feel more like five months. especially for young trainees like. who up until now have done all their training on land. what's the longest you've been out at sea. and now are all part of the same therefore you are sometimes now but sometimes yes. the sales are revealed the area is fresh. i was dying in the hole i can now or balls was. writing patiently each x.

who will dive next. she's been told it's her turn tomorrow she'll have the chance to experience something few humans ever will. she be going to the bottom of the deep ocean alongside a pilot and a scientist to put all her training into action. to put that into perspective there are more people going into space than there are going into the deep ocean and is about to become the first chinese female to do it. she invites me inside the saab for her final driver. ok.

it's too. back of the speech yeah. wow. and you spend ten hours you. go to battle our army. may be. just light of the city but maybe alito exciting and i come see me very soon so take house in my new clothes and buried in the mirror. and this thing oh ok i'll do it for. the chinese flag in bare. i like it. the day i become the training pilot i bring that one day there but the lack thereof don't fall.

sets for myself you must be strong strong and strong there's no time for me to think think think either of course of course afraid alito alito yes to be honest. afraid. as dawn breaks the crew is crippling the son. after years of training this is the first time he will be involved in an actual deep sea beach. today she won't be drawn back to tame the testing her ability to cope with extreme conditions from the .

cold not that he. is sorry for asked the sofa to flare fast. walks also we know it's a serious no lights but i can see he's out that and in most blink blink blink blink blink me first won't. see in your own eyes. his mari exciting. cancer or any other word. everything gets. to low. wire. i found her

a big fish it's a fish it's just so glad to have. this area. may find being alive some time to small the lives of the window and that we can see anything. everything goes to plan and he copes well with the pressure and impresses her credit on her shipmates awaiting back on board to celebrate. i hope i have a picture of her and had been. caught out while i. was. there the.

china is late in the global race to explore the date safe from mine but it faces growing competition from other countries. it's truly the last frontier. and china hopes their discovery will benefit the whole. chinese authorities are putting those they say have committed a crime on t.v. but are they show trials or genuine confessions. when east investigates. on al-jazeera. business updates brought to you by qatar airways going places together.

business updates to you by qatar airways going places together. to do is being am it's being. measured. all of the colleagues that i knew chose to retire from the big could not stand by

and see all the work that they had done being used for mass surveillance digital dissidence on. al-jazeera where every. this is al-jazeera. well i'm richelle carey this is the news hour live from doha coming up in the next sixty minutes. the trickle presentation they are attempting the twenty third will not happen. but as well as president nicolas maduro tells al-jazeera he will not

let us aid into his country. and he about to isolate pakistan after an attack an m.b.a. that minister in kashmir that it blames on islam a body which denies any involvement. after losing a vote on the budget spain's prime minister calls a general election for the end of april third and less than four years. and u.s. congress reaches a compromise to avoid a government shutdown the president has to declare an emergency to try to get money for his mexico border wall. an interview with al jazeera venezuela's president has the queues the u.s. trying to destabilize his country looks majoris says the u.s. backed opposition is called to bring an eight on february the twenty third is nothing but political theater and that he will not accept it but are also criticized european nations for supporting u.s.

military intervention. i think that some europeans made a mistake when they supported the american war in iraq can you ask any of the coalition countries was it necessary to intervene militarily in iraq and divide it and kill millions of its people i think they also made a mistake when they bombed libya and killed more than one hundred thousand civilian candie's evers be corrected i think they made mistakes in their destructive policy approach in syria and making more mistakes with venezuela. this does not happen and will not happen any material that comes from outside the country must be subject to certain conditions such as inspection and taxes as in all countries whether by air sea or land and then there will be no problems trickle presentation they're attempting on february twenty third will not happen.

after conducting a dialogue with the opposition in the dominican republic we agreed to hold the yearly presidential election in the first four months of last year after which part of the opposition withdrew and did not sign the agreement and eventually it was agreed on may twentieth these elections were conducted according to the law and the constitution and with international and local observers ten million voters participated in the elections and eighty six percent of the voters voted for me therefore the interim legislative elections were done and anything else is just whims an attempt to destabilize the country from the white house. well as well as top court has ruled that opposition appoint an oil executives must face criminal prosecution the opposition controlled congress has named a new board of directors for the state oil giant as well as its u.s. subsidiary by washington a decision by the supreme court which backs president maduro is the latest move in a tussle for control of venezuela's oil revenue c.n.n.

reports from caracas. in the capital of the country with the world's largest fossil fuel reserves practically everything you see was built with oil money and now that money along with an israel is oil production has been reduced to a trickle. last month the u.s. blocked the transfer of dividends from citgo the state oil companies us subsidiary its crown jewel. citgo represents about seventy percent of him as well as hard currency a government that is already experiencing an unmanageable fiscal deficit and a suddenly deprived of seventy percent of its income and a government when no one who lend it money is simply economically unviable. that's the point of the u.s. sanctions to strangle than israel economically to force president nicholas mother little out. we had a large shipment of medicines to last the country through in europe and

a large batch of fuel materials for food the contras frozen the contracts are cancelled and the monies they suffocate us stede our money and then say hold on to the scrum and put on a show for the world venezuela with dignity since no to the global show. and now to add insult to injury the opposition controlled legislature has named a new board of directors to take over the u.s. based company. citgo operates refineries and supplies some fifty five hundred petrol stations in twenty nine u.s. states. and israel a supreme court which is loyal to president. issued a rapid response. this is yet another assault by the national assembly which has been declared unlawful against a video as well as most vital resource its decision regarding p.b.s. say a constitutionally protected company void and have no legal effect the judge also
