lead this woman is the niece of ralph nader a one time presidential candidate also more importantly in this case he's a consumer advocate who has taken on auto companies for flawed parts in the past so he is is a formidable nemesis to have he will be here merely on the telephone but the mother of the victim will be here and she was upstairs emotional crying just a short while ago this is before the press conference and we are expecting this to be an emotional day here and another lawsuit that could be yet further devastating news for boeing john thanks very much till she lights up well stay with us so we called bailey is an aviation analyst and formally an f.a.a. safety representative he joins us here on the news from skype skype from new york daily welcome to al-jazeera so what's your reading of this interim report. you know what the interim report is very very vague and it's pretty much telling us stuff that we already knew stuff that has been leaked out the last couple days we know

that the pilots walker control of the airplane and that the amp caste system was engaged and disengaged several times the other not getting into the exact number one interesting thing i want to point out. is that you know we hear about the pilot struggling for control and that when they you know perhaps maneuver the controls of the aircraft the plane was responding it's to my understanding that when the m. care system isn't gauged that the control yoke on the airplane that's typically you know in the average man's terms that the control of the head what were raised a nose of the plane that's just part of the pilot that pretty much that was not right the m. caste system so that's an interesting point there that perhaps he might not have been aware of that that that control would not override the system but it's right now you know we just have to wait for those of the black box data to be released and call everything right now seems to be pretty much on the on the bank side is

a tech patch or an upgrade to the software enough or does the aircraft need to be radically redesigned one remembers i think it was a british airways seven four seven it was known within the aviation world as the glider because they lost all four engines and any aircraft if it is built properly it will literally glides to land that's what an airplane literally the wood airplane is supposed to do but if you've got a seven three seven max if they lose everything for some reason and it naturally goes into a dive all tilts up and goes into a stall does that mean it's inherently flawed. well the interesting thing about the max is this is the first seven thirty seven series where the engine replacement has actually been moved so what we have is that that affects the weight and balance the center of gravity on the airplane so if they're tweaking the m. cast software in other words how we're recover to a situation whenever you have any engineering changes into

a complex system there could be other results that perhaps they might not be aware of that's why it's so essential that this has to be their fix has to be tested and retested. and has to be a hundred percent and i think with the scrutiny you know the whole world is looking at this now i think both boeing the f.a.a. and all the governments who have these airplanes were involved in the investigation they're going to make sure that everything is one hundred percent before this aircraft is allowed to operate and the respective countries when you talk about the aircraft operating in respective countries i mean we're talking about what three hundred seventeen croft sold to forty seven different carrier is i mean. a subtle debt they could estimate has been five billion dollars was tall the profit margin of one hundred billion that's how much boeing made according to the most recent statistics but the impact about on boeing could perhaps be even bigger. yes

and cutting and keep in mind boeing is not just in the air space the r. and a fast but obviously you know their bread and butter is the airplane business but they're very good at what they do boeing has i mean hundreds if not thousands of engineers on staff they know the aim this isn't the first time where they have had to overcome. technical issues you know not necessarily as a result of a crash but you know these engineers and the staff that they have working there are the best of the best and you know i think when they go through the process and even with the u.s. federal aviation administration you know boeing is not going to let this airplane fly and say and we have to remember too. it is boeing knows that it cannot have another one of these instances so there are going to make sure that this airplane is one hundred percent before they allow it to get back in the skies with passengers clearly because grades are not an admission of guilt so that's not

i'm not in framing my next question you and your family don't go to j.f.k. first thing tomorrow morning the airline that you bought your tickets from says to you we got the upgrade the plane is safe do you put even your family on a seven three seven max i here in the us i know how diligent and how fantastic the federal aviation administration here here is here in the united states and i know how boeing is if if if i were to get on an airplane and or if i'm deciding and i know that they have the green light from both boeing and the f.a.a. i would not hesitate to get on the airplane after the fix is is put into effect after the pilots are trained you know what the fix is i would not hesitate to get on the airplane. good still to thank you you too thank you. plenty more still to come for you here on the news hour including we'll hear why the israeli prime

minister is in moscow just five days before an election back home. and the conflict with an assault in syria may be over but thousands of people are still facing paunch. and in sports james holmes up for the n.b.a. playoffs with another game winning performance for the houston rockets. the u.s. secretary of state might pompei always hosting foreign ministers in washington to mark nato seventieth anniversary he opened the conference with an appeal for unity but turkey's planned purchase of the russian s four hundred defense system has drawn condemnation from nato allies u.s. officials have called the deal a security risk are diplomatic at the james bases at that meeting in washington james how much tension is this all generating it is certainly generating some tension in the opening session that's been taking place here nato was set up

seventy years ago to confront the threat from moscow and that's what they've been dealing with in the opening session it's interesting as all the nato countries all twenty nine here gather to condemn russia for its aggressiveness the russian foreign ministry has put out a tweet they say tongue in cheek we'd like to wish the alliance in a peace and less nervousness clearly some of the nervousness is internal and it's that tension over turkey's decision to purchase that russian missile defense system it's an issue that was addressed by the nato secretary general younes stoltenberg. it is a national decision. and for each other to decide on determined over capabilities but at the same time we see that this is not an issue which creates. which has created this agreement between allies and need to provides

a platform for our allies to address issues like to this the s s four hundred issues going on the agenda of the meeting today but i expect of course is to be or to be addressed on the margins of the meeting because nato is a platform for our laws to discuss issues like these nate the provides support to turkey and we augment the air defense. the air defense cold turkey with the bottom and top. nato part to it but they're not going into their second session of the day and one of the focuses in the second session is going to be afghanistan there it's worth noting that there have been these talks very important talks in recent weeks taking place in doha between the taliban and the u.s. now the u.s. have been keeping this information of what was going on at the talks very very close until now they have been the main telling much to the afghan government well i know nato allies will be hoping they get an update of exactly what's going on in

the session that's just started moments ago james thank you. saudi arabia is said to be in talks with firms from five countries to build two nuclear power reactors according to the reuters news agency is planning to launch a bidding process for the projects in twenty twenty a former nuclear inspector says the kingdom's first reacts it could be operational within a year he identified the sites in riyadh using these satellite images the crown prince mohammed bin cell man has indicated that saudi arabia is interested in nuclear technology to counsel what he calls a threat from iran while the kelly is the former inspector he's an associate fellow with the stockholm international peace research institute he joins us now from vienna these images just explain to us what they show. they show an industrial building under construction in the middle of the king up to a city person i'anson technology that matches up very well with other information

we have that there will be a small research reactor built in that city there's no other no other construction site there that makes sense in the cylindrical object that you see looks exactly like pictures we've seen of the reactor plus the time line here how long until they flick a switch and they're able to say we are generating nuclear power. forever this is a tiny research reactor it has no strategic significance at all it's for training engineers and scientists in how reactor works and producing neutrons for small experiments in science a big power reactor is really a big hydraulic system this has none of that capability so this will be any help to the power program in the short term is saudi arabia ready and you'll mind to stand by the usual safeguards that a put in place covering countries there's this umbrella of safeguards covering countries that have nuclear this kind of nuclear capability. sunnie arabia has been

very slow to embrace the rules and standards that the i.a.e.a. demands are they signed a nonproliferation treaty to not get nuclear weapons about thirty years ago they promised not to do that and they still don't have a real agreement in place for inspections and how to handle safeguards they've managed to do that because they've simply said we don't have any nuclear facilities or material so you don't need to calm the fact that the crown prince has said that he would be willing to make nuclear weapons despite the fact he signed the nonproliferation treaty makes you very uncomfortable and are you made more uncomfortable by the fact that you know this the situation between donald trump and congress over the sale of coach nuclear tech to saudi arabia and accusations of politicians being stonewalled and the questions not being on set over who's pushing the deals that will be the more important outcome i think from this business

finding the reactor was just an interest of mine to to fill in some holes in my knowledge but now you see that the previous history or markets trying to sell lots of reactors to saudi arabia and then the department of energy stonewalling or what it is they beloved to be sent to saudi arabia makes you think that this this event is not over yet and also how does that match with the saudi and chips what's iran toward iraq or toting around to what iran. yeah toward around well i think in this case there are major powers that are struggling with each other in the middle east i tend to believe that the agreement that we have made with iran do not produce nuclear weapons is a good agreement and it's working. in saudi arabia comes along and says if i think iran is doing it i'm going to make nuclear weapons true on what basis will their

intelligence be when we have really good evidence from the i.a.e.a. to randy has is sitting this one now that the moment well kelly thank you very much . iraq. m.p.'s in the u.k. have narrowly passed a bill forcing the government to avoid a no deal bricks at the amendment was passed by one single vote but has yet to be approved by the upper house that's the house of lords with eight days before british actual to happen weapons these votes means the government will have to ask the e.u. now for an extension need barca has the latest from the house of commons in london so they're also into day two of these talks between to resume may to resume and jeremy corbyn the main label position any movement coming out of those discussions . no as yet i'm afraid the mood going into talks on wednesday was very positive very congenial they both were very positive in the house of commons earlier on in the day before they went into that first round of talks but so far all we've really heard is that both of the leaders have said

that they need to continue talking it looks as if according to at least some reports that the prime minister's prevert preferred position would be to carry on these negotiations with jeremy corbyn possibly right up to the wire ahead of the all important e.u. summit next week but we are hearing something that could well change everything according to the. the prime minister's spokesperson the british government has actually failed to go through the necessary procedure to hold a second or third round of indicative votes on monday just to remind you that would allow m.p.'s to vote on a series of alternatives to teresa mayes failed deal and by a day before the e.u. summit next wednesday said by next shoes day the british government needs to have written down in a letter what exactly wants to present to the e.u.

so i'm not entirely sure what this means in terms of the brics approach says but it definitely looks as if there's pretty much no time left whatsoever. for the british government to come up with a plan and with parliament backing heads with some of the need to clarify that and there's a another layer of bricks that madness around the corner as well need i guess because all of this has to go to the house of lords there's talk of people who are for bricks it in the house of lords filibustering deliberately but it's custom in practice that they can only talk for fifteen minutes at a time and again like the house of commons the house of lords across the board is generally a collection of people who believe in staying in the european union. yes the mood music is at the moment. backing the the deal that of was sorry the bill that was of course approved in the house of commons by only one vote on wednesday it appears to have passed the first round in the house of lords but you're right in

saying that there are pro breaks it appears within the lords that seem to be willing to filibuster the entire process so make sure that debate goes on into the early hours so there is no conclusion although saying that the pier that he presented the bill to the lords earlier on of the day said that she would be willing to stay up all night and was even ready to order her breakfast to make sure that there is some sort of conclusion there is a sense of urgency in the lords to try and give the british government and nuff time to be able to present their case to the e.u. to essentially ask for that all important extension but there is a real sense now that across the board time is running out and just to make things even worse we gather that there's actually a leak in the roof of the house of commons so all all the activity in the commons

has been called off for the rest of the day could things really get any worse right now when at least there's not naked protesters in one of the boxes overlooking the chamber this time around me good to talk to you thanks very much. is head of the brussels office of open europe an e.u. policy think tank he joins us on skype from brussels peter keppra does the e.u. want the u.k. to to stage elections to the european parliament. yes the president of the european commission jungle noongar has been very clear that there can only be a long extension of british you membership if britain complied in a number of conditions one of those conditions be in the u.k. organize this european parliament elections is that not in a political way i guess slightly bonkers in as much as if the u.k. has to stage these elections three years after the voting to leave the european

union they have to stage elections to send members of the european parliament to brussels and strasburg point number one and point number two the received wisdom is that the traditional parties in the u.k. labor and the conservatives will get absolutely filleted by the electorate who will go for what will end up being up to seventy seven zero pro brix it your m.p.'s so does does the european commission really want seventy versions of nigel farage sitting in that chamber. well of course you have to win the election for that but indeed i think your rights than the euro skeptics will do very well of course because of the disappointment among brigadiers and the dregs of nona happened not legally and this is pretty clear if you're a member of the e.u. you have to hold the environment elections. in all likelihood if there is

a long extension it will be possible for britain. at any time from the moment they approve the droll agreement or an undated draw agreement or an undated in that region it's even possible to clean that's the u.k. announces european parliament elections and that's before any elections in the u.k. lease after all or decide it's the final legislation to leave which would mean the people are campaigning in parliament and then would suddenly have to stop given that there will be no morse bridge seats in the european parliament. given the events of the last three years is there one big takeaway but when they come to excuse the cliche write the history of bricks it it might be this if a country joins the european union eighty's an impossibility to leave the european

union once you're in you can't get out because you have to go through the process but the british prime minister the british labor party opposition leader the m.p.'s and the voters of the u.k. have gone through in the past what two and three quarter years. boy some people try to argue that but i don't think it's actually correct i mean if you look. at draw agreements to lodge a green british m.p.'s are fine with it and they're still. not ok with the important part of it which is that you kate would be outsourcing its trade policies to brussels until further notice a veto for brussels and or ireland on winter britain recall verse three dollars that is of course the part that the other elements of the draw agreement are acceptable so i think it's proven that you can negotiate in exits i think it would

be wrong to argue it's not possible ok we have to leave it there peter thanks very much. still ahead here on the al-jazeera news hour. by nicholas hockey in northern mali in join us next on a joint operation with. so in mali and police in one of the most dangerous places north of go. also ahead in the sports news italian football's contract rebel makes a goalscoring return for them to milan. however the weather remains very unsettled across many parts of the middle east at the moment unusually wet we've got the spring showers still plenty of them around lousy dry them by much across

a good parts of iran in place to say but the wet weather is not too far away we are going to see for the flooding concerns as we go on through the next day or so toronto twenty one celsius in the sunshine full friday. twenty one celsius in the rain for couple pushing up towards many star was pakistan showers long spells of rain over the high ground wet weather that will come back in behind through the levant rather decent sort of the mediterranean southern areas of turkey northern parts of syria lebanon seeing some wet weather and that all makes its way further east which as we go through saturday and so this is when i can start to kick him once again lots of cloud of course a good parts of iran sunday doesn't look like an even wetter something to watch out for over the next few days flooding will continue here one of two showers further south across potentially mussy as positive rain here in doha over the next. to pick up to thirty celsius on saturday warming up getting warmer as we go on through the week ahead. continue across eastern parts of south africa with the heavy downpours

this weekend. we live in a time of war and tragedy it's crimes against humanity. activist repression. enforced disappearance arbitrary arrests. extrajudicial executions brutal torture the list goes on. who investigations who judges the criminals. who compensates the victims the international conference on national regional and international mechanisms to combat impunity and ensure accountability under international law. organized by the national human rights committee. united nations human rights office of the high commissioner. european parliament. and global alliance of national human rights

institutions. welcome back you're watching al-jazeera news our live from these are the headlines the libyan war. says he's ordered his forces to march to tripoli that's where the u.n. backed internationally recognized government is based in a state of emergency. if european investigators say the pilots of an aircraft that crashed last month. procedures to regain control of the airplane as part of the initial reports and the accident that killed one hundred fifty seven people.

foreign ministers from nato countries are in washington to mocking security alliance his seventieth anniversary the u.s. secretary of state mike pompeo opened the conference appealing for unity. syrian government forces have shelled rebel held areas in the south of the province killing at least fifteen people one missile hit a market in the town of noble killing and wounding civilians it libya is the last remaining rebel held territory in syria and is designated as a deescalation zone under an agreement negotiated between russia and turkey. the final battle against syria last month left thousands of people homeless the town of in the north east turned into a refugee camp. in a hold reports from the camp which has seen its population jump seven fold in the last four months. aid agencies weren't ready for what's being described as a humanitarian emergency in the past four months l.

whole camp in northeast syria has gone from hosting ten thousand people to more than seventy thousand the camp was built to house just forty thousand many live in communal shelters they are the wives and children of i still fighters as well as civilians displaced by the fighting against the armed group ninety percent are women and children and we have over six hundred cases of documented malnourished children and hospitals in the area are overwhelmed to provide them. very specialized care that malnourished children need so health care is a challenge malnutrition is an increasing concern for us some have died of disease there is a lack of proper medical facilities and there is a need to improve sanitation to reduce the risks to health forty three percent of the cap's population are syrians they can't return home because their villages and towns have been flattened by the assault against eisel and littered with explosive

devices so they won't be leaving elf hole soon the rest are foreign nationals mainly the wives and children of isis fighters their fate is also a talent hundreds of the children are orphans the international committee of the red cross says they should be immediately taken to their countries of origin. human rights groups have complained that governments are failing to tackle the problem of what to do with the relatives of i still fighters u.s. backed kurdish forces which control the camp say they don't have the authority or the capacity to prosecute detainees or hold them for long our immigration has been in countries that can't provide process trials these people should be taken back to their countries and be prosecuted. or you know if western countries and others don't want to and there has to be an international response to find

a way to provide para trials or in the region but the current status quo which basically leads to tension without any legal basis is unacceptable for now the international community's response to this crisis has been limited to providing emergency assistance to a few when there are many with nowhere to go. into beirut and the conflict in syria was on the agenda as israel's prime minister benjamin netanyahu met the russian president for talks in moscow the two leaders are expected to focus on the latest developments and in homs security ties russia and its forces have been fighting in syria on behalf of the government step us and has more now from moscow. it's all about the timing this visit by prime minister netanyahu to mosco it's happening just five days before the elections in israel al and although there's been reports that he's carrying a so-called peace plan on syria which if only also has handed over to donald trump the spokes plan of president putin's at the t.

has no idea what peace plan they don't ya'll is talking about but if there is such a plan that he's willing to discuss and consider this but more likely analysts say this visit of nathan ya is more like a high profile photo opportunity for training nathan yahweh's an international leader who travels to washington and to moscow meeting all these leaders while his companions are sitting in is for al and on the site he could get some more votes of russian immigrants who are living in israel the big question though is what putin wants in return for helping nathan yeah with this election what put in ones is that israel stops or at least limits their attacks on the iranian and hizbollah forces in syria and that is something that needs on ya especially now before the elections gone commit to actually nuts and you are would rather want the opposite he wants that britain and russia would like to make sure that iranian forces who because well our forces are going to leave syria all together and that's also something

that put in so far has not committed on although after the last visit in february netanyahu said both countries agreed on setting up some kind of the some kind of working group to make sure that all foreign forces would leave syria but for after that putin made some kind of general remark that this will be the plan at the long term anyway but anyway this will be a visit the first visit after. president announced that the golan heights should be part of israel and that's something that russia is very much against so it would be very interesting to find out what will be discussed today but so far no statements are expected. well the visit to russia that we've been hearing about comes just days ahead of a general election in israel that's been a hotly contested campaign with many issues on the table. asked people in west

jerusalem what's important to them bibi isn't the only nickname the israeli prime minister goes by another term benjamin netanyahu has cultivated and banked on over the years is mr security to the people of israel that he is the only one who can make them feel safe and secure but now the strongest challenge to his position in a decade is coming from three former army chiefs of staff men who also know security here in west jerusalem most people are telling us that security has always been a priority for israelis but there are other issues just as important that need to be addressed in a simple that people here are barely living it's the economy we can have costs go up without salaries also increasing i hope this time netanyahu will have the strength to create a broadly focused government that will be able to address all of these issues not only emphasize security which is where we invest most of our money recent polls show that the main issues on the mines are security the economy and corruption

netanyahu is facing corruption charges in three separate cases the tourney general has announced he intends to indict the prime minister pending a pretrial hearing. it's trying to size curity just like he's trying to emphasize the economy just like his trying to emphasize his rolls of film out of relations but the election is not about any of those three things it's about corruption. and whether israelis care about it. and so far indications are that they don't. most predicted yes benjamin netanyahu will once again become prime minister but they also say that the corruption indictments hanging over him may ultimately defeat him it's finished he will go to within ten months it will be prime minister . allawi. is corrupt. and. we will keep him out of the political israel goes to the polls on april ninth

but it's what happens after which may be more defining for the political career of benjamin netanyahu stephanie decker al jazeera west jerusalem protesters in south africa have held a rally in a johannesburg township calling for better government services and improve living conditions on its own free of barricaded streets and burn tires they're angry about rubbish not being collected as piles of garbage build up and they say illegal settlements are expanding. you can see we're overcrowded here and exam so there's no language we can stay so if the government can provide any kind of language by we can be able to fit all of us for not one but. we're fighting for alexandra and i want the president to come here so we can talk to him face to face there are lots of things happening michael said. we're not fighting just one run the pros of the come here so he can speak to fighting for our rights the united nations has stepped up patrols across. last month gunman killed more than one hundred thirty

more now from our correspondent mark what abdel wahab who's in tripoli. what's the latest information you have for us. well peter the latest is the recorded message that is a recorded message by the warlord have that himself and he in this message he is addressing his troops which is positioned near tripoli to start what he calls the battle to liberate the capital tripoli of this recording has been posted by. central command facebook page. central command of have put its forces it was posted on facebook and that seems to be a message through radio communication to all the units that is there of affiliated to have to or near tripoli he's addressing them to move towards the capital tripoli

and to feel nothing not to retreat he is encouraging his forces pushing them not to listen to the other voices but to move right away toward this capital tripoli to tripoli of what he calls between brackets. but now earlier and the day the government of national accord has given orders to its air force to launch air strikes and target any military activities or escalation that would target the capital tripoli also in the city of misrata military units have a started to move towards the capital tripoli to face. forces now as you know peter the united nations security general under new good turkish is in the capital tripoli and i don't actually he is due to hold a press conference but as you know he is also going to visit but.

he's due to meet have to himself embassy. in terms of the peace talks as you know peter that the latest military escalation is my dear a the peace talks that the peace talks that are supposed to be held on the fifteenth of this month in the city of their dance peter martin thanks very much the u.s. house of representatives has approved a resolution to end u.s. support for the. war in yemen the resolution has been approved by a vote of two hundred forty seven two hundred seventy five the bill will not go to president donald trump who had announced his plans to issue a veto last month she had pretends he joins us live now from washington she have just take us through what they've agreed there. right so this will go to president trumbull the president from house that he will he will veto it

because it has been passed in the house and the senate this is a bill that was introduced by bernie sanders in the senate by row canada in the in the house which said that the u.s. had to end its involvement in the saudi bombardment of saudi led bombardment of yemen. that it has now passed here in the house so it is a deeply symbolic moment for several different reasons firstly this is congress asserting its authority for the first time since nine hundred seventy three war powers act was actually authorized saying congress has to be consulted before a president gets involved in a bombing of a country so that's deeply symbolic for that relationship between the executive and the legislative branch but secondly it's deeply symbolic in that it once again underlines how precarious the relationship between congress and saudi arabia is right now there really has been a snapping of any kind of patience with saudi arabia since the killing of jamal

khashoggi and it's reflected in the the sort of the vigor with which this particular bill was pursued by both democrats and some some republicans but in real terms it's unlikely to have any impact on the ground to us support to the bombardment of yemen that will be vetoed we expect by president trump in any way actually to be honest if you look at the small print off this bill it did have all sorts of loopholes which suggested that corporations could continue even if it wasn't vetoed but a deeply symbolic moment capitol hill and we understand there are also some other measures now in place or at least being discussed to do penalize saudi arabia so we have to see how this momentum continues now in congress as the the congressional session session goes on and just to be clear she had this is congress delivering on what they said they would do following on from the midterm elections last year and at that point american politicians are focusing in on the war in yemen off the back all of focusing in on the death of jamal khashoggi inside the saudi consulate in

istanbul. right and there really is that sense and congress of this enough is enough to get the killing has been the catalyst really for many members of congress now to reexamine that relationship between the u.s. and saudi arabia normally here in congress certainly there would always be a majority to basically have saudi arabia a blank check to do whatever they wanted whether it be arms sales or or foreign policy that seems to be changing so we have this now this joint resolution passed both in the senate and the house there are other there are other motions being discussed perhaps some sort of limitation on the on weapons sales to saudi arabia perhaps more sanctions on those are those two been involved in the could show be killing it has to be said we haven't heard much about some of these other initiatives in recent in recent weeks but they're still bubbling away as part of the background noise here in congress but what may become the but these sorts of issues may become more significant as the congressional session continues as that

anger continues to simmer because these sorts of amendments even if they go nowhere in standalone bills they may then become amendments to other bills must possible as like the national defense authorization act or anything else later on in the year and that will then increase this idea of a showdown it will actually make it more difficult for the house leadership to ignore legislation again saudi arabia we have to see how this develops but but this is yet another sign of how that relationship is frayed between saudi arabia and the u.s. at least here in congress she had thanks very much. well a state with the american political scene president trump has criticized the new york times newspaper after it reported that members of the special counsel robert muller's team are unhappy with the way the findings of the inquiry have been handled offices involved an investigation into russian suspected interference in the twenty sixteen elections in the summary of the report is limited and it's far more troubling for the us president than the attorney general indicated now william barr submitted a four page letter on march the twenty fourth outlining the conclusions of the

investigation and said it cleared donald trump's campaign team of colluding with russia can really help that following that story for us as well from washington so kimberly mr trump not pulling his punches in the last hour or so. yeah he said a series of tweets lashing out at the media as he often does when he is not happy with the coverage he has been receiving in these latest series of tweets the latest one to say that he really is criticizing the new york times once again calling it a fake newspaper with no legitimate sources in terms of the story that has been picked up and widely reported across the united states that in fact this report by robert mueller is far more damaging than the attorney general has left hot the president has also in a tweet just prior to that said that he calls this presidential harassment that nothing will ever satisfy the democrats in terms of what they are asking for in terms of what still needs to be turned over now this is an interesting turn of

events peter given the fact that the justice department has also now felt the need to respond to all of this saying look at reporting that in fact this summary that was written by the attorney general may not have included enough is simply. what their position is that this summary that he wrote was never intended to be the broad report that is still forthcoming and that something that the attorney general has maintained this four hundred page report though they are saying is in fact full of information that is private that is part of a grand jury investigation that may be classified and as a result they are going through very carefully redacting what they can and need to do in order to release this to congress committee is it your sense you know given what you know i would say you know yesterday just to strengthen the argument given these comments from robot mullah's team that the stuff in the document in the finished report the stuff that's been written should not be deducted everything

should be published in the evidence that went into the report or was analyzed that should be made public as well. that's the feeling of congress in fact it was voted overwhelmingly you know weeks ago and once again by the judiciary committee on wednesday that in fact this should be made public and perhaps you know some light is always the best disinfectant given the fact that there has been so much acrimony in the united states since the two thousand and sixteen u.s. election and even prior to that in terms of the level of mistrust not just among politicians but among the american public this is exactly what members of congress have initially been saying but once again what we're seeing is these partisan lines being drawn in the last forty eight hours or so including from the president the president initially when this report first came out. was known that robert muller's report was complete that he said he had no problem releasing this but he's changed his tune in recent days now saying that no matter what is turned over it will never

be enough this is just relive a geisha of the election of two thousand and sixteen it's time for the country to move on that's not how democrats are seeing it in fact there will be protests outside the white house today in the coming hours as there is the continuing effort from the public and from many politicians to try and get all the information out for the public to see committee thanks very much at least twenty members of the afghan security forces have been killed in the south by the taliban government compound and in the. districts and buggies some of the freebase the police compound we're talking to is there has been fighting in the province for more than a month now in past years the taliban's intensified its violence with that so-called spring offensive. twenty more still to come for you here now to syria including the fight against cholera in cycling it's mozambique health workers begin the vaccination campaign. we'll tell you why it's in the wrong things could be worse for you smoke it.
