a trade pact means delhi canal enhanced cust. to these two any level on goods coming from pakistan and on tuesday india said it launched a preemptive air strike on what i call the terra training camp in pakistan and pakistan administered kashmir as a war and it would respond every quarter is covering the story from both sides of the border so how raman is live in the indian capital new delhi first let's go to the mall hyder is in the pakistani capital islamabad what do we know about what is going on with the potential release of this pilot. the indicted by is going to be the new. computers that new ad was your border crossing at about eleven pm did or didn't go far beyond dry minutes earlier tonight was there do you really really you had to the board of the vision pretty. good on your daughter.

from india. that the british should really. be. more through a gate. being completely because of that already india notepad so everybody here there's no way of doing good he wasn't going to vary from new delhi ok. thank you it's going to delhi now we're standing by live gathering more information as well so there had been some confusion about what was supposed to happen with this pilot it seems like we're getting some more clarity so it are you getting the same for information houses information being received there. yes indeed rachelle certainly when the pakistani prime minister imran khan said that the pilot would actually be released into indian custody there was perhaps

a great sense of relief that that was going to happen but the well the proof of the pudding is in the eating can only assess what that situation will be once the indian national is back home soil what we do know at the moment in those pictures that accompanied. report there from islamabad you saw the atari border where whole host of local media are covering the story well we've now been told by our sources on the ground that the media has been pushed back one kilometer from the border which indicates that it seems the pilot will be transferred into indian custody through the land border he will be put in commuter car obviously he'll be deep briefed by the secret service but mainly the air force and there will be no media sound bites from him for the forseeable future when he comes back to indian soil

that is part of the protocol when you are in theory a prisoner of war. that's the scenario that we face at the moment but in terms of when he comes over that was also very confusing the foreign minister of pakistan saying yes we are going to release him but the defense ministry here the foreign ministry in new delhi keeping quiet because they weren't sure how they were going to receive the captured. we think that he will be transferred in about two to three hours' time but obviously they don't want to count their chickens before they're hatched they're keeping storm until they they know that he's always way so this and this tension between pakistan and india is also playing out in a completely different setting at the nic foreign ministers meeting in and out of what's happening. the idea that.

we shouldn't national viewers be under any doubt that peace has been restored here in the region certainly has not the tensions are still high there was shelling on thursday across the line of control the indian national on the indian side of indian administered control in the area of pooch was killed her funeral is today there is still high military presence it indeed it is because there are also curfews that operation is obviously a real concern that there could be another flare up violence whether it be in the air or through a land dissolved that saeed you have the indian foreign minister. in the organization of islamic conference is a group of over fifty predominantly muslim majority countries that have been in existence as an organization since around about nine hundred sixty nine there india

has for many years try to become an observer to india has one of the largest muslim minority communities on the planet and a sizeable water that over around about one hundred eighty million now there observer status has been blocked time and time again by pakistan. the dynamics of the ground realities of chaytor the last few years india is a strong economic power in the region the prime minister narendra modi has been to the middle east in the last certainly twenty four months and certainly the last year went to the us he has got a real charm offensive it of course we recently saw the saudi crown prince arrive here in new delhi as well to discuss regional issues of course pakistan india being one of them but also things that the economy power generation power the power needs of india. no pakistan has actually withdrawn from that call this is the first time they've ever done in history in objection to the indian foreign minister attending

a conference as the guest of honor of the dressing those really influential islamic countries this perhaps is a shot in the foot because they should actually maybe be there to counter the charm offensive that india is now experiencing in the system of swaraj will have a captive audience and everybody will want to talk to her about what's going on to try to deescalate those tensions will be interesting to see what she says when she either has a press conference or comes back to india to explain what happened in abu dhabi all right to have our men live for us and thank you earth korea's leader kim jong un has received a state welcome in vietnam's capital annoy and is currently holding talks with the vietnamese they have a nice president comes just one day after his nuclear talks down with the u.s. president. for washington almost immediately after their summit and there are three s. accuse the u.s. of wasting an opportunity to strike a nuclear deal. in theory if united states removes partial sanctions namely removes

the articles of sanctions that hamper the civilian economy and the livelihood of our people in particular we will permanently and completely dismantle all of the nuclear material production facilities in the yongbyon area including plutonium and uranium in the presence of u.s. experts and by the joint work of technicians in both countries. told me this proposal was the biggest denuclearization vision that we could take in the present state in relation to the current level of confidence between the d.p. r. k. and the united states and there had been competing narratives over why the talks failed trump says he had walked away africa mask for all international sanctions to be lifted and that there has been reiterated by u.s. secretary of state like. i think the president had it exactly right he said they basically asked for for sanctions relief that's true they they basically did ask for that. that was in exchange for. some

relatively undefined but the scope of the president didn't think was adequate to justify that level of economic sanctions relief. soccer diplomatic editor now time space who is in hanoi so let's talk about right now what was happening with kim jong un currently meeting with the president what what do we think will come out of this what's the purpose of it. well it's not quite a state visit but the official visit was benighted on the end of this summit clearly it's important i think for kim to build relations with other asian countries his country has been very isolated he has a reasonably good relationship with the dog and if you are a country that is as heavily sorry shinde as he is you really want to make as many friends as possible it's also worth telling you're not personal level this is the

leader of a country used to be the place now for seven years until last year he'd never go abroad on official visits and it's only in the last year since we've had this slight reproach mall with the international community and particularly the u.s. that he has trouble he has in the last year gone to china clearly because north korea has relations with china and talks to china he's going to singapore for the meeting with president trump last year and he's come here to hanoi for the president trump meeting this year it's remarkable i think for a foreign leader to be in power for seven years and really to have only ever visited three foreign countries so for him i think a bit of an eye opener when you see someone like the capital which is bustling with traffic still slightly small get behind me because of the congestion nothing like here you never get smuggled congestion that badly do you get a traffic jam so of course he is there because this is where the summit quickly

wraps up between him and donald trump and north korean the u.s. are saying completely different things about what happened but james going into something this big question it have been known what what both non-negotiable were for both countries. i think this is the problem with this unique way they've done the. it worked in singapore because you had a moment it looked like we were on the cusp of a war involving nuclear weapons and a personal rapport between two leaders was built and they averted imminent conflict they were able to do that all the personal one on one level if you're trying to negotiate something much more complex which is the details of north korea's nuclear program and the details of what could be the most comprehensive sanctions ever put on the nation in history that's actually something that some little bit more than

the word for two leaders who probably don't deal much with detail normally what would happen is these things would be negotiated in advance with lower level officials precook all the information and then in the summit they'd have it already and they'd both signed i think the north koreans were very keen to not do it like that they felt they had a bit of an advantage with president trump and kim with their relationship and they thought that they push it a bit i think at this summit they clearly pushed it a bit too far because what they wanted is something that the u.s. could not sawin and i think we do now a bit of a problem because clearly president trump has gone away kim will be going away from hanoi soon when they were still in the city they were still talking about how constructive that meeting is as time passes we've heard rio tinto the north korean foreign minister being quite tough on the u.s. and mike was quite conciliatory when he was here on the ground in vietnam since

he's now gone to manila tough language from him and this is the danger i think they'll start talking tough for their own domestic audiences they'll be delay and that in the end is how diplomacy die i think you now have to watch for one figure to step in here the person who in many ways was the key figure in launching this whole initiative in the president of south korea he's the man who needs to come to the rescue. the battle president of sudan omar al bashir has stepped down as leader of the ruling national congress party but the main call by protesters has been for him to resign as president the move comes as thirteen protesters in sudan are to go to jail for between six months and five years. and they've been sentenced by a court established under the country's recently imposed state of emergency law earlier this week for sure outlawed public hearings in

a bid to stop the demonstrations in the morgan has more from khartoum. president bashir delegating his powers to the deputy of the ruling party i met her is no surprise to expected last week when he announced a state of emergency on friday but the question is will the logistics hold for the future of sudan let's remember that as part of the delegation yesterday it's said that the president is still a get in power to the deputy and till the election that the religious right is convention annual convention is held that was supposed to be done in april but that has been postponed indefinitely so it's not clear when that would happen and then again the question is if it does not happen in time what does that mean for the elections a settlement the state of emergency is set to last for a year after that there should be elections next year in april twenty twenty but with an amendment to the constitution part it was not conventionally religious party the question is will there be elections of course the state of emergency was also imposed to stop the protests that have been going on for ten minutes that hasn't happened yesterday we've seen thousands of people coming out defying the

state of emergency that was imposed so at the moment we have people who are very defiant of them state of emergency saying that we'll continue to protest and tell the president steps down we have a president who has delegated his power to his deputy and said that his that he's stepping back to try to be a leader of the of of the whole country not just his party and we have a party that is basically each in other words for lack of better words sidelined because right now the government is controlled by the military most of the people that the president appointed after the state of emergency are part of the military including the eighteen governors of eighteen provinces that he appointed after the state of emergency was announced. so add on al-jazeera another blow in the fight to contain the ball epidemic and they democratic republic of congo. an american businessman behind bars the question over the part of russia's president as played in the case.
