explicitly said the russians wanted to help president trump. in repeated trips to the border recently the president made it clear he saw security here as an important campaign issue he says he wants his officials to be tougher and even though she was repeatedly by his side and said she supported his policies in the end none of it was enough to please the president she tried so publicly to impress leaving her department more controversial there when she came and more concretely thousands of families with the permanent scars of separation. al-jazeera washington the weather's next on al-jazeera and still ahead. and strike near the many capital damages killing at least eleven many of them children. and nissan shareholders take further action against my chairman who is facing financial misconduct charges.

now live so phase what promises is from mr modi making as he seeks a new mandates. fawley prime minister modi just took the stage the event is still going on with different parts of the manifesto being explained by different party members so far though they have said that they want to make india among one of the top three economies in the world double income for farmers by two thousand and twenty two and continue making it easier for foreign companies to do business in the country now some more controversial things in the manifesto is they want to create a uniform civil code currently under the constitution different religious groups have different civil code rights particularly for marriage and inheritance they also want to pass the citizenship bill this is a measure which would allow migrants immigrants from neighboring countries who are not muslim to get indian citizenship they also want to make some social changes making of one third of all seats in parliament and all state legislatures reserved for women as well as making a medical college or post in every district by twenty twenty two now they began the

event by praising their competence over the next five years for security and prosperity sticking really to the poor and middle classes and they said that if elected for another five years they would take india to even further heights but critics have criticized them for the high youth unemployment which is at its highest level in decades right now and for the fact that a lot of the wealth in the g.d.p. growth has been concentrated to the wealthy among those critics of course is the main opposition congress party and which says modi has failed in key areas there and they released their manifesto in last week how do the two manifest and. well the congress manifesto focuses more on jobs they want to fill the one side of the two and a half million vacancies in central and state government jobs right now too as well as help farmers which have been protesting for years that they're facing debts and

low crop prices farmers have been holding massive rallies around the country for the past several years the congress though one of their big themes was also creating skill jobs for low skilled workers and jobs in small and medium enterprises but they're bigger one biggest one has been the minimum income guarantee that giving about one thousand dollars u.s. every year to twenty percent of the poor in india now that have critics saying that the government the congress opposition rather is just trying to focus on government jobs and government spending to pull up the economy but folly these manifestos are the intent not exactly what the governments are going to do because as we all know when it's campaigning times parties will say what they need to to get elected and dean thank you very much for that face john my live for us in new delhi. israel is closing all crossings from gaza and the occupied west bank for twenty

four hours from midnight local time ahead of the general election prime minister benjamin netanyahu promised to extend israeli sovereignty if he wins tuesday's vote turkey and the u.k. have condemned new settlements that's in the occupied west bank and a city in need is those say they are not surprised we expected ducks. netanyahu has been seeing that the for the last twenty years. maybe not publicly but this time you know he was encouraged. trumps the policies sometimes archon when trump decided to put the knowledge of the most captive of israel. as it is over until with the local buy a seat in the heights he felt why not if trump approves and accepts everything that you know i ask on the amount they want you not just to goof and demand from him through commission all of these are going to

a local by the west bank or polls have netanyahu in she has competition with benny gantz ollie's the centrist blue and white alliance the former army chief is from zero to himself as an honest i'll turn it to have to netanyahu who could face corruption charges in the coming months gansey is also among those who accuse netanyahu of stoking villages divisions meanwhile soldiers that an army base in southern israel have cast their ballots ahead of tuesday's election if netanyahu and his right wing likud party when he will serve a fifth term as prime minister. the president of the maltese has declared victory for his party in the country's fundamentally election it could be the first time a single party has won an outright majority in the maldives since two thousand and eight when the chain of islands emerged from decades of autocratic rule ibrahim mohammed soli says he wants to use a victory to restore political freedoms and tackle corruption. the former nissan

chief who's fighting financial misconduct charges has been fired from the comic as board carlos cohen was shareholders meeting in japan's capital tokyo a sixty five year old has already been removed as chairman after his arrest in november go on and his wife say he's innocent his reported to be appealing to the french government for help michael paine heads the shingles sue and indeed an independent japanese news agency says the go on case is more complicated after his fourth arrest last week. yet charges which have been put against him this time are actually in many ways more serious you know previously you may recall he was essentially accused of underreporting his income to the stock exchange this time the prosecutors are saying that he directly embezzled money from nissan for his personal benefit and that of his wife essentially he used a shell game of of companies to transfer needs some money into his own accounts so

this is a more serious round of accusations made by the prosecutors my analysis is that it's far more likely that this is part of a boardroom coup and that and that. claims that he's a century been set up doesn't make a lot of sense so for example. if there are if nissan's executives were concerned about his pay why did they never go to him and say we're concerned about your pay instead they immediately went to the prosecutors in order to have him charged with serious crimes thus hurting the entire company's reputation so it doesn't quite make sense that this is a straightforward criminal case more than half of iraq's eighty five million people are under the age of thirty five and with unemployment rising their future is looking be the government is beating is of conflicts but many young people aren't convinced that so many to blame he has more from baghdad. this is hosain

osier. he's got a degree in political science but he's here in baghdad to hear square selling t. hussein is one of the millions of iraqis who are out of work. i have decided to wear the graduation at tahrir and sell t. on the streets to earn a living and to deliver a message of discontent to the authorities now days graduates suffer from lack of job opportunities and a weak government plan to address the issue. these protesters all have p.h.d.'s and are all out of work. they say they're angry with the government for not fulfilling its duty under iraqi law the government must provide government jobs to those who gain a ph d. in any discipline but that's not happening. as bad a lot of the job much the reason behind our protest is that many of those holding who scratches degrees are suffering from unemployment no job opportunities

available despite the fact that many of iraq's universities need such experts we play administrative corruption nepotism and favorite has many. officials say the country's recent problems have derailed government plans in the title as the reason behind rising unemployment rates in iraq is attributed to its economic crunch and security challenges and that has led to the delay of many projects which have affected the labor market this is one solution it's called the station established last year by young iraqis to help start up companies it is privately funded by local and international non-government organizations the station offers office space for rent and access to people with extensive experience to provide guidance it's helped launch more than thirty businesses so far. and this is one of them this bookstore opens within the station last year and its owner says she got all the support she need it really should be watching that kyra until rates of places all

to obtain a real estate and start a business this is difficult but here i was with an opportunity to start up with a list costs so the station provided me with that corner to run my business called the raj this is the only one of its kind in the country for now the founders are trying to launch a second one in erbil later this year while a place like this provides resources to many unemployed iraqis they argue that it's not enough to help tackle the growing unemployment rate across the country and for substantial change to take place they argue that the government must do more to help its people dorsets of al-jazeera baghdad. again i'm fully back to go with the headlines on al-jazeera soldiers in sudan have stepped in to protect anti-government protesters outside on the headquarters in

eight when the chain of islands emerged from autocratic rule those are the headlines inside stories next. move and time. snapshots of overload. inspiring documentaries from impassioned to make. zero. it's a quarter of a century since rwanda was torn apart by a campaign of genocide that killed at least eight hundred thousand nine hundred since then the country's recovery is widely seen as an example of african potential but how much freedom do people there have been one to paying a price for peace this is inside story.

hello and welcome to the program i'm martin dennis now twenty five years ago the world watched as unimaginable atrocities were committed in the rwandan genocide at least eight hundred thousand people were slaughtered within one hundred days rwanda has since made a remarkable turnaround and is often portrayed today as a shining example of what can be achieved in africa when our president paul kagame has started one hundred days of commemorations by lighting a flame at the kid galley genocide memorial it's believed two hundred fifty thousand victims are buried at that site alone where president kagame he says rwanda's recovery is a story of hope for the world you know until ninety four there was no only. as.

lacked reveres from the splits survivors. there on their lines were something left to give. their forgive. and that is forgiveness. well since the genocide rwanda has emerged as a model for economic development it has one of africa's strongest economies growing by more than seven percent every year since two thousand it's now the second easiest place to do business on the continent that's according to the world bank and it has more women politicians in parliament than anywhere else in the world but president kagame me has been criticised for becoming increasingly authoritarian he

won a third term in twenty seventeen with ninety eight percent of the vote human rights watch says laws to control hate speech have been used to silence criticism of the government. my. all right let's introduce our guests now we have a rare and they will gain z. who is a genocide survivor he fled rwanda in one nine hundred ninety seven and is chairman of the global campaign for rwandans human rights and we're not revealing his location for safety reasons from kampala in uganda we have andrew moore wend who is a member of the presidential advisory committee of president kagame me in london we have phil clark an assistant professor specializing in african politics at so as the school of oriental and african studies at the university of london thank you all gentlemen for joining me today can i start with you renee we're not disclosing

your location for your own security give us an idea of what has happened to you since you survived the genocide you've obviously arrived in the u.k. why do we have to keep your location secret. yes. in two thousand and eleven do you kiss a gritty service was discovered solution or quote to conspire myself our unsought be to you know to take some measure for my six months my sickly my security yes. that's. was brought was organized by that one a government because of my human right arctic is. right thank you for that i have to become very careful about my real question ok let's put this now to andrew income paula now this is a an accusation that is levelled pretty regularly at the government of poor gummy and that is that they relentlessly pursue dissidents even crossing international

boundaries the the security forces in places as far afield as south africa and sweden have alerted people of their suspicions why is that but i think the enemies of the present government and the current government in one have been very successful at branding the government of rwanda as murderous i can tell you this if the government of rwanda through the security is correct and just that if the government of the united states would feel of the city its security is so then before some of bin laden of course cross international borders to get a tourist and kill them. they'll serve the prince in the world to do that in that case the government want to be in the different from other governments so patrick callen here in south africa general. near mazar who has been shot three times not dead seth senda shown that he was shot dead in nairobi a hutu politician and the journalist charles nga binay he was shot in camp all in twenty eleven and died these are all people who were plotting against the

government of paul kagame me. for example i don't think we have any guess what so ever that it is the government of wonder who killed the people who have been but is one of those we have it is an academic record. jerrold premier who are people called africa's world war and in that case he was personally working with the system in mobile is incomes of acquitting and invent one if the government of rwanda. because he was organising the respect it is against a country that i think again that's just your action ok coming to you phil now few countries in the world divide international opinion as much as ruined on the one hand it is the the miracle of rebirth after the the horrors of nine hundred ninety four and on the other hand it is an increasingly altera terry amazing who will stop

at nothing to quell dissent both at home and abroad. i mean i think one of the reasons opinion or her wonder is extremely divided is that the country itself is extremely complex on the one hand you have a country that has recovered remarkably well since nine to ninety four where we see a level of reconciliation between two at sea in hutu inside the country we see a socio economic development program that has cut across the ethnic divide these are enormous strides that this country has my since the genocide but at the signs on we also see i think some very worrying tendencies of a very controlling ass state there are some significant problems at the level of national politics big questions about democracy whether kidani will in fact ever leave the presidency now that he has changed the constitution to enable him to stay in power until twenty thirty four all of this is happening at the same time some

enormous positives but some very worrying trends as well and it renee coming back to you as a real one don't you feels. too intimidated to go back home presumably do you not look at these wonderful achievements made by your country under the tutelage of pool could be in the p.f. government wonderful economic growth a great deal of reconciliation that has been widely lauded around the world to being poked at gummy is really mates and some amazing achievements feel country. and to what they did when the government has done very good job in trying to portray themselves as a country which have been which i develop some sort of consideration times of economic development but if you look too fucked that you cannot to do any consideration of course addition a candle to be complete without to just go to tools because that be an order or not a defect was just east people committed to genocide some have been been tried in

a political maturity to try to survive as needed really very good justice didn't get it in terms of the dumbest of the economy as well one done. show to have some good economy could have implemented but which a ton to be fake so they trying to being trying to fake figures so the country that being progressive for example to give you one fucked the country for example they haven't they don't you can look to develop at that rate we don't have to sit in one to have a go two hundred twenty two hundred twenty one may go a little for tricity which is a hell if done the hustle for the advantage of a free country to develop into that country at the top of it preceded in terms of the aid one that get one billion dollars a and they get the same amount into taxes so that is not part of productive productive it economy cut it so so a cut will cycle now is that is safety almost three thousand long as you know it

could just as the government do going to be safe and you wanda. does through right but if you're trying to if you try to to to to criticize you have been you're right rob and k. so that the greedy situation where there's an. all right and saying i'm sorry those are not a consideration is an economic a development oh i can i can i'll come back to you and am angry the kinds of things that have been expressed by renee are often repeated about the government to me can you understand why there is such concern about what. appears to be an alarming path that is being trodden by those supporting porker garny i do understand why victor is at the poles of ninety eight percent provoking a certain amount of alarm internationally. remember but we need to understand why and in context i went for support and. looked at two o'clock look their course

jenna said institutions of rwanda are designed to reflect the experience one has going through they're not designed to reflect some textbooks you're about to democracy in belgium or the united kingdom they respond to very specific historical and social events is a good one and even the process of the government in fact that the reality you see the test of the pudding is in the eating if you look at the rate of economic change and one the level of social hummel in that country just yesterday twenty five years ago father killed son husband killed wife waif killed daughter neighbor killed a neighbor a friend if you're a friend i can tell you people it is difficult in a country in the world where is a set it disintegrated at that little shop of his and within a blink of an an eye it has been of just you and your i it is i hear what it is but it together i thought that the wonder has been successful in large part because that forces institutions processes and procedures that are relevant to experience

and angie so therefore you to follow your argument then logically then we shouldn't even be expecting the wonder at this stage twenty five years on to be a pluralistic democratic society is that what you're suggesting. i'm suggesting that the wonder cannot be produced democratic society on the lanes shows practices and procedures. of the myth that it can do or that it is that one does democracy very specifically i don't give you an example there wasn't any that when they did this it's if you'll go and look at the institutions and procedures of bussing solely up what you think it's really if your book removed the context of a name you live in you may think this is a stalinist or he collaborated with him it is not that this means the subject to proceed doesn't have been pressed into airports around the world that was just the states reflect a specific historical reality context right and set up for one does his dishes that

reflect the same right that i want to collect and obstructs you're in a textbook phil an abstract theory from a textbook models of democracy from from belgium of the united kingdom should not be applied to a country that is still interim or still just about post conflict twenty five years is no time at all what do we complaining about. look i don't think anybody's expecting rwanda to follow some textbook model here i think what we have to get to grips with in the rwandan case is that the society needed a very strong studies to be able to recover from the genocide in one thousand nine hundred four and i think we do have to attribute some substantial successes to kidani and to the rwandan patriotic front but this is a potty this is a government that has systematically rebuilt the state and society from its lowest possible but even within the one by itself there is increasing disquiet about the

lack of democratic space questions about how long a kidani will last this is not a set of ideas that is being imposed from the outside this is something that many rwandans themselves are saying now what is interesting i think when we all the to listen to every day the wonder is that many rwandans will cite look we on doubt sidley have a standard of living today that we could not have imagined in one thousand nine hundred four and even many of my hutu respondents will say things like we don't particularly like it i mean we don't particularly like the tutsi dominated apia but we have to recognize that the apia of has delivered health care education social economic development in a way that we never would have imagined so even many every day who to a say we recognize that a gang of assad let this go at the title of this but still at the same time at the same time they are also concerned about the fact that elections are clearly not

free and fair that there is a clampdown on opposition voices that people have to be very very careful about what they say in public so they are not entirely black and white in their views people are saying we recognize this government has done some remarkable things but when will the day come when this political space begins to open up and we start to see a different brand of politics that is a question that i think many. every job or one dancer also oscar and i think andrew has got to reply to but but the point guys here is the point i think that fear is a labor mind that anecdotal stories listening to a fringe of opinion within random society does not cause it to run and set in quebecer been tim my newspaper. had an international french international farm it's just to go and look you know important one eighty six percent of one said elections are free and fair about eighty seven percent said in excess of the rate for over a symbol of freedom of the press freedom of expression they feel free now if an abstract your says one is going to be free but the subject of the people involved

in our coming subject incidents are free then the viewer we have what in court the course of the problem one does understand that the un freedoms in the country but these and the freedoms. for that matter their mistake that but specific historic and social context are right and i definitely don't the impression don't let a legislator wrists less than a london letter in a coming in into that because according to andrew according to the poll that he commission not that long ago eighty six percent of rwandans feel that their elections are free and fair in his country what if you go back and take part. no no no one that they want to say will live on their government want them to say they want to stay alive does you know that's why i disagree with undo that they want to nothing as the question is what do they want to answer because they know what will happen if they don't us will be done to us or the government want them to say that's why you know i don't agree with sofie or you know feedback you know which

going to get a question from london so they wonder and assume if i was a little goals in the one i was going to be on citing the same question question and dumps of them democracy after the genocide said one national to be no photo you know that photo that the country on a contradiction to which has has experienced a general side a country which. has experience that kind of suffering that people this will do for there should be a country where to teach the ward the whole prime it comes with democracy defeated too and the human right this this this this values and station so we have been installed just after the genocide in the church of the world how did all of those one have been fed by for that i'm really a country this is what he said all this then a very good one the candle in the can i do can i do it you know doing it right sorry when a college kid i get can i just ask you about one specific point one of the main missions of paul could gummy seems to be to to almost transcend try i think you'll agree that would have been absolutely vital for any country to recover from what it

went through so that seems to have been achieved do you agree that he has managed to achieve a kind of amazing amount of reconciliation between the two major tribes of rwanda. good it could have done it but he missed the opportunity because he had just won a victory as just his according to this very quickly bull report to the u.n. human rights would be the cut on to government of the country must like a thousand on cells into a whole new who to put position all those who did what relation some of them within the government were to doubt quieted if i may have been disseminated down will talking so all those population who are quiet and have nothing to see of the just these very wounded about what will my them what will happen in the future the best solution to have done it to justice for everyone and that would be hard for us to and consideration and make to make make a sustainable peace because you cannot just run a country we will put

a pristine flood part of the population and no one just justice and he's told have shown you cannot prove or produce the. dude that's going to put in a photo in time that's why we're calling always pull that one out of government to try to do the justice for everybody to read it democrats say for you don't just let an engine come back and iraqis. yes let us use your income to practice it renee is saying that one and afraid to speak against their government in the same opinion poll sixty six percent of london said the economic situation had looked improved over the previous year about seventy percent of the right and said that if somebody was arrested by the police some awful person can come and get them released the court was but of course of the suspects over the conduct of the police and the and government of what it was what happened with these responses but the whether it would say so so it's not true that one of the spirit to me did that and that i say

all right yes or no longer not only for the issue of course but chemical has let me as of the second point you see democracy is a journey it is not an event we need to understand where it is what coming from where has it reached and wages going that this is to be a clock that country if you are caught if you want to run an engine into seven the government allegedly lied under oppression in order to assert it oh increasingly as the state has consolidated the wonderbook state has moved away from repression increasingly towards the rights of scientists and that's why you see when you let let me jump in here just for you made i made that point i get your point i want to move you on that specifically to weigh you while you're in cannes poller in the ugandan capital what's going on between rwanda and uganda the border is closed in part some people are talking about the possibility of there being war between. seventy in campo his effectively the goat father of the other p.f. in rwanda what's gone wrong is this paul kagame is paranoia well i think that. the

wound and uganda may be suffering what you call structural stress in the sense that i get the sense of perhaps the rays of wonder instills fear in uganda you gotta be seen in the ways of rwanda is threats to our security threats to our position as a regional hegemon a military headman and therefore you've got. what you or structure rather yes structural such competition all right phil what what's what do you make of the current situation between uganda and rwanda structural stress or structural repositioning of british society to competition according to andrew or is this because at the heart of this dispute is apparently the position of so-called dissidents could go all the dissidents and the seventy not handing them over. look this in many ways martin goes back to your very first question about

some of these rwandan figure is in the diaspora and in the rest of the region who are in fact mobilizing against the kid gobby regime you mention the likes of care a day or in cairo care a day is now being killed or is still alive that these activists who are actively wanting to overthrow the khatami regime in can dolly and have been very explicit about saying side part of the current antagonism between rwanda and uganda is really one does accusation that both the burundian and the ugandan governments are actively supporting kid ami's and to dolly's enemies in the wider region so i think when we talk about that the difficulties in this region at the moment the tendency in the international press is to say that rwanda is the mind generator of all of these problems i think we need to have a much more almost an open discussion about the role that many of rwanda's neighbors are also playing in the deliberate destabilization of the country and

specifically in the case of uganda one thing that has been very clear in the last ten or fifteen years is that most seventy has always wanted to play this almost patronize ing role towards could dominate he's wanted to claim ownership or the remarkable recovery that the rwanda has made but over the time i think what the wonder has also done it is to unveil the problems that are taking place in uganda especially in socio economic terms and so uganda i think over time has become incredibly jealous of the stability of the price and the development that rwanda has has enjoyed and so we are now seeing i think uganda doing its utmost to try to destabilize the situation inside rwanda so we really need a regional dialogue not what's going to jump in because we have run out of time i want to give the last word to you renee have you had anything today please be brief have you had anything today not discussion that would persuade you to go back home to rwanda and take part in the political landscape. and for trying to know what you
