corruption state television showed a clearly frail eighty two year old to flee handing in his resignation on tuesday and i think what's happened now is that certain grad schools are being settled the result is that our target is no out of office and that begins to remove some of the infrastructure of the boot of the the regime but it will only be a beginning and whether it really bligh's a change in the institutions of the state or not that i doubt very much. is now in the hands of a caretaker government but the protesters have made it clear they would see except a new president from look poof wall that's the nickname for the entrenched war veterans and business type. the country. wants is a civilian government they want to get a little destructive but exist today statements by the chief of staff suggest he

a series of short delay so the idea of a longer extension possibly a year is being talked about in brussels but that would have to be approved by all the e.u. leaders at an emergency summit next week so the question will be has the prime minister got sufficient detail and sufficient. can you give your opinion is sufficient assurances that june thirtieth is a sensible day and has a plan of how to get there and will the e.u. thing actually be into play for domestic issues that the european parliament elections is that a sensible date for them and that will be the big question over the next week or so . and an extension could see britain having to field candidates but the parliamentary elections in may which will be unpalatable to many of those who voted to leave. to reason may is still trying to win support from both sides of the political divide she's still coming under attack from some within her own party and

demonstrations like these that major institutions after this one at new york's guggenheim the museum announced they'd no longer accept the family's donations after the guggenheim became the third museum to sever ties with the sackler family trust but trust announced that for the time being it would stop making donations altogether the news came on the heels of the announcement of a new federal lawsuit against the family in addition to several others already on the books including one filed in massachusetts and another here in new york art experts say efforts by museums to publicly distance themselves from the sackler family is unprecedented it's very unusual it's the first time that i've ever seen anything like it usually the way that these things work if there's a sort of problem in terms of ethics and fund raising the institutions are giving out or accepting it usually ends very quietly the sac lawyers who are fighting some of the lawsuits and have settled others see. they don't want to be

and the story needs to be told segregation occupation discrimination injustice this is about died in the twenty first century with exclusive interviews has honesty fall into the lowest point in its history and in-depth reports al-jazeera has teams on the ground it takes to bring you more award winning documentaries on general and life means on air and online. you're watching out to zero let's recap the top stories now security council has instructed ward cleaver hatari and his forces to stop their advancement awards in libya's capital general intending to terrorise was in libya on friday where he met

separately with the u.n. recognized government and our troops have now taken control of tripoli international airport hundreds of thousands of algerians have rallied in the capital for a seventh week and a row they're demanding even more changes despite the resignation of their longtime president earlier this week and u.s. president donald trump has made a visit to the southern border with mexico he says the country is broke for any migrants whether asylum seekers or illegal migrants are not allowed in. like the situation in libya let's bring in jonathan winer who served as a former u.s. special envoy for libya under president obama he joins us via skype from washington d.c. we appreciate your time very much so what do you see as khalifa tars ultimate goal he's been very clear he was very clear with me when i met with him in two thousand and sixteen she wants to take the country by make sure conquest and

acclamation everyone saying yes let's go just as gadhafi did she was with gadhafi. back at the beginning she wants to return a yorker history towards khalifa haftar his attention is quite clear so if he has been so clear about these intentions do you think that the international community should have been dealing with him in a different way. oh yes how so if you're not getting military support from any country. you were barred on but he's got your military support for more than one country and he's gotten financial support from russia in the form of counterfeit diener is what you're giving him billions of dollars euros worth of purchasing power in libya with absolutely no accountability and his years to build corrupt patronage you know works so when you when you talk about that let's talk about the u.a.e. who has given him support but now the u.a.e. is part of a list of countries at the u.n. that is that is asking that he not go any further kick can they possibly have the

most ways. when i was in my position a special envoy i met a lot with the senior people the way they recognize them the after tried to take tripoli and to grab the country by conquest nothing good would come of it be a lot of blood should there be a lot of chaos and libya would risk becoming more like syria which should not be in anyone's interest including egypt the emirates or really anyone the potential disaster because the face of the country if a military conflict. worsens that this turns into a genuine civil war so this conference as the national conference is supposed to happen and about ten days is is there a point to it do you think it will actually happen will have any impact on what is actually happening right now on the ground. for the last several years general after has stalled every effort to get him to participate for real in diplomatic

process he made errors last year which a flop which should go away presumes he left power as. he kind of made commitments but not really. people want to see an alternative to return to one with libya they need to demonstrate that they're very serious and will support anyone who takes the country by force we're in a very dangerous country to be very clear ok and weiner thank you so much for joining us from washington d.c. we appreciate there your insight. of course. thousands of protesters in mali have condemned the government for failing to curb rising ethnic violence they marched in the capital bamako demanding the resignation of president abraham to have a car key to the protests have been triggered by the killing of one hundred sixty villagers from the ethnic for lawmaker up last month. a rival community are suspected of carrying out the attack. good as the president. is not cut people

off from solving the country's problems you must accept the people democratic change and. again as the out really not cut people off solving security problems. and hundred days and at least eight hundred thousand people killed it has been twenty five years since the rwandan genocide but the scars remain and the healing goes on and this weekend rwanda will pause to commemorate the most violent period in its history sunday marks the day when hutu militia began an ethnic genocide against a tutsi minority and her simmons has visited. that is where some of the worst atrocities took place and a warning some of these images are disturbing. as rwanda prepares to commemorate twenty five years since the start of its genocide the same images of horror

dominate tears a low carb dissolve the sorrow and questions remain who shot down the aircraft killing rwanda's president from the hutu majority an act that started one hundred days of killing on a scale rarely seen in modern history around three quarters of the minority tutsi population were murdered. questions of why the international community didn't immediately respond still exist how many lives could have been saved or why didn't the united nations at least take early action against a highly organized campaign of hatred and incitement by the hutus. for alice. underground in one of the mass graves there is only one answer and that's to forgive despite her extraordinary loss she shows some of the seemingly endless lines of coffins containing the dried out bones of whole families. in this casket

are the remains of her mother father two sisters and three brothers and i vividly remember the death of my parents and my siblings i hear their voices in my heart i'm sad but i forgive them. in a separate attack alice was hacked all over her body one of her hands was amputated with a machete she nearly died yet she forgives the man who did this as well above her you see the tops of these modern day tunes they contain the remains of more than forty five thousand people killed in this district alone a family died in the church just here this is one of so many churches where people tried in vain to seek sanctuary but moment when files and people died here mostly women and children their clothes now spread out over the pews above shrapnel rained down upon this place and below here now you see coffins filled with the remains

bones of victims twenty five years on what happened here still defies understanding. as alice continues with her visits here the man who attacked her is now free living with his family he served eight years in jail and completed community service aside from killing in a group he's murdered twenty one people in cold blood would you say you feel nucky that you didn't get a life sentence or you did even you for serving a life sentence to be ok because it will be punishment for my crimes being alive is not lucky i kneel in front of those i have had and beg forgiveness this form of reconciliation is one of many initiatives aimed at trying to ensure peace can be permanent but not everyone is as forgiving as alice andrew simmons al-jazeera in rwanda. french president mandela mccrone has appointed a panel of experts to investigate france's actions during the genocide occurring is

also met representatives of survivors group in paris france or want to have had a stronger relationship since the killings in one thousand nine hundred four and reports from paris. at the lease a palace the french president met today the survivors of the nine hundred ninety four rwandan genocide france's relationship with rwanda has been strained for twenty five years of recommendations by kigali that france was complicit in the massacre now emanuel markhor says it's time for the truth he's appointed a commission to investigate france's role at the time and announced more resources to track down genocide suspects who fled to france marcel could banda who lost family in the genocide welcomes macro's initiatives at present but. it's important for people in france rwanda for survivors and humanity to know what happened it's a step in the right direction because the narrative is no longer that there is nothing to say but that there is something to say. the killings were on

a monstrous scale militias armed by the hutu majority killed eight hundred thousand people mainly from rwanda's tutsi minority at the time the french government was an ally of the hutu leadership during the massacre the french military set up what was supposed to be a safe zone for some say they did little to stop the killing for a quarter of a century french leaders have been guarded and secretive over france's role in the genocide in twenty ten former president nicolas sarkozy admitted france made some errors but he stopped there about all my car once relations between paris and could go only to improve but he knows that for that to happen france must face its past one president paul kagame a has rarely had patience for french politicians but last year in paris he praised mackerels approach but not everyone is convinced that things will change this historian curated an exhibition on the genocide at paris's show memorial she questions what will come out of michael's commission mccance even

in these two and a pleasure exclusive not my fear is it will be history written from an exclusively french point of view we know a lot about france's role alongside. it is criminal regime but the facts are enough that could be much more emphasis on sarkozy's comments about ira's it could be seen as an act of courage if we could properly face one of the darkest chapters in france is history the commission's research will be revealed in two years if it finds that france played a role in the genocide it may believe the post shouldn't tanishq france's image today but it could also send a message to the paris is ready for honest reconciliation. al-jazeera paris. and the palestinians believe nothing will change for them whatever the results of the upcoming israeli elections on tuesday mention minute now who if he wins will become

israel's longest serving prime minister he benefited greatly when his close ally donald trump declared jerusalem israel's capital and move the u.s. embassy there and his weeks before election day trying tweeted that it was time me occupied golan heights are recognized as israeli territory in just the last years partly forces have killed and maimed palestinian demonstrators as they protested in gaza and the west bank the now who is also approved new illegal settlements and expanded existing ones and then the for so called nation state law which defines israel as a jewish state affectively downgrading palestinian israelis and others to second class citizenship the night abraham reports from the occupied west bank. part of my . surveys his damage plant and destroyed during crop. here and his living from this land on the slopes of the jordan valley in the occupied west bank the israeli army often effects palestinians from these hills temporarily the reason military trails

activists tell us that israeli army has carried out more than twenty drills in the jordan valley already this year the war games have damaged large areas of farmland and forced four hundred palestinians to leave for up to three days the most recent drills because the most damaged everest scene. this is where the tanks came through and made a path the jordan valley makes up one third of the west bank the u.n. says that around half as this ignited as closed military zone. palestinians cannot imagine a future state without the jordan valley rich with water sources and agricultural lands highly and other farmers say it's bad news for them that is the daily politicians are shifting increasingly to their rights. as a farmer doesn't make a difference to me they're all the same they're two faces of the same coin if they wanted to make peace they would have done so since we signed the oslo agreement twenty five years ago under the also agreement sixty percent of the west bank

including part of the jordan valley was put under temporary israeli control those large pockets of land known as area c. .
