how the plumber aims to bring you some very heavy downpours across southern parts china of the moment to see the long chain of thumb beheads there just pushing across northern parts of vietnam some areas of china right into that southeastern corner still some more heavy rain to come here as we go on through sunday i suspect the heaviest bursts are going to be over towards that southeastern corner of the country things stay thin and break a little as we go on through monday not fantastic you see still some wet weather in a similar area but not quite as widespread and hopefully not quite as heavy meanwhile we are waiting for the race to push up into in the southwest monsoon starting to show its hand but still not making particularly good progress it should

be pushing into the far south the myanmar by now and should be across sri lanka just nudging into the far south of the sun potentially there want to see showers into work hour less some heavy burst of rain there into bangladesh and that way becomes even more widespread northeast nevers of india still seeing some pretty wet weather for monday very heavy showers once again across a good part of southern india and back into frank up of central and northern parts of india as that for a monsoon hate that continues to make the news temperatures here into the mid to high forty's. let me take you to things. like new police. until the strongest fall sticks on most skilled. nation to come to traffic in stadiums that are brought in to.

discover a news destination defeat the women's world cup from 29 t. . come back a recap of our top stories on al-jazeera this hour mexico's foreign minister is in washington for talks over doesn't donald trump's plans to touch all mexican goods present andras money lopez obrador says he expects positive results from the meeting on wednesday trump wants mexico to stop the flow of migrants or face a 5 percent which could climb to 25 percent demonstrators in sudan a trying to stop security forces from closing down the main street outside the military headquarters in khartoum protesters calling for military rulers to hand

over power have defied warnings from the army to end the sit in that's been going on for weeks and u.s. police have named a gunman who killed 12 people at a local government complex in virginia beach as the way in cradock several people were injured crowd died after a gun battle with police. by u.s. prison donald trump is set to begin his state visit to the u.k. on monday but he's already made clear his choice for who should replace prime minister theresa may say is former foreign secretary boris johnson would make a cold excellent leader calling him a very talented person. both trump and johnson have been critical of prime minister may's approach should breaks it may stepping down as leader in a week but is staying on until a successor is chosen is live for us in london so neat how is this going down boris johnson securing the endorsement of donald trump one of the reactions. well make

mixed feelings for a very little has been heard so far though from boris johnson himself he's been keeping very quiet in the past few days or pretty much if we imagine part of his strategy in this leadership contacts it may come as little surprise that donald trump is interested in power who has it who doesn't have it and is keeping a close eye on the leadership race and in this interview with the sun newspaper donald trump appeared to throw his weight and support behind the x. foreign minister and hard line breaks a tear boris johnson saying that he would make a good prime minister an excellent prime minister and despite boyce johnson's right called for extramarital affairs donald trump said he didn't believe that that would stand in his way he also made some passing comments about some of the other front runners as well the current foreign secretary jeremy hunt he gave the thumbs up for largely because hunt has pledged to spend more on defense something that trump that want to the u.k. government to do thumbs down though for the environment secretary michael gove who

accused or trump of saber rattling over his iran policy this these comments by trump our fallen short of full indorsement of boris johnson but they are something of a bombshell intervention in domestic british politics only a few days of course away from the all important state visit to the u.k. also donald trump said the search of the contenders in the leadership race had approached him for public support too so there's a very strong belief by don't trump that he could have a direct impact on who will be the next occupant of number 10 downing street as you say neither now important visit for donald trump which begins on monday at once expected what sort of preparations are in place. or just remind you daughter trump was here last summer for a working visit he's now coming back for a state visit so that includes all the pomp and royal

a ceremony that one would expect he'll be met by the royals by the queen and also there will be a parade here in central london he'll go down to the south coast to take part in world war 2 commemorations but also just to remind you when trump was here last year we saw some of the biggest demonstrations this country ever seen 250000 people took to the streets of london it was a massive police operation the police are once again preparing for a very very large demonstrations indeed and in that very same interview that we mentioned with the sun newspaper donald trump said that he believes that he was loved here in the u.k. given the scale of police preparations maybe that claim is up for debate need thank you very much for that need to live for us in london at least one person has been killed and dozens injured after a tornado struck the south in chile in region of below below the storm formed just before 6 pm local time sweeping into the regional capital and knocking out power to iran troth 1000 homes the region is no stranger to natural disasters earthquakes

a common but tornadoes rare. now government departments in the united states are at odds over the introduction of 5 g. technology billions of dollars have been made from the say in a satellite band with space to wireless companies but some scientists say that's getting in the way of their ability to forecast the weather my can explain some washington. when are you concerned he hit the u.s. coast it was disastrous but it could have been far worse if where the scientists had not predicted the path of the storm and the point at which it would hit several days before they'd on hurricane sandy very impressive storm the national oceanographic and atmospheric agency noah says this will no longer be the case if bandwidth in space is sold off to 5 g. companies the reason noah says senses on satellites that measure crucial indicate is like water vapor being compromised by the signals from 5 g.

providers in a shared bandwidth there is genuine concern here that as 5 g. is deployed in it interferes with those atmospheric signals that we're trying to detect with the weather satellites then we will not be able to provide the same quality and reliability a forecast that we have currently but the f.c.c. in the 5 g. industry denies there would be any interference the wireless industry representative brad gillen said in a blog post it's an absurd claim with no science behind it he maintained that no as claim relies on the study of a microwave sensor that never went to to use not so insist the scientists well i can tell you that there is many scientists know nasa and outside of the government that have looked at this and also our international colleagues and determined that there is a serious threat here and that the science must be considered or we do risk losing

our predictions kill for. major storms that would impact society the updated senses also improve research into climate change factors a critical study given the unprecedented increase in extreme weather conditions ranging from intense drought to an seasonal storms. but this argument is rejected by influential figures in the administration who are climate change skeptics including the president himself officials from the u.s. state department are attempting to bring the 2 sides closer together a unified position is critical as a meeting of world spectrum regulators is due to take place later this year but the scientists are hoping that the conflict will be resolved by an international convention that would deny 5 g. operators access to the same bandwidth as the weather sensors. in

a month that seen a series of tornadoes strike us states the fear of scientists is that the trumpet ministration may be reluctant to sign any more international agreements and will side with those intent on securing a river news stream from 5 g. providers rather than those attempting to predict the next economically crippling threat from the weather. mike hanna al-jazeera washington. mourners in the democratic republic of congo are paying tribute to a veteran opposition leader in tend to security a longtime opposition leader died in belgium 2 years ago but political turmoil prevented the return of his body he died before his son won the presidency in elections last year. has more from kinshasa on what it in just a cat his legacy means for the country. supporters of 8 inches the kitty are calling this a victory against the former government he died 2 years ago but it took

a long time to bring his body back home partly because of the political turmoil at that time and the disagreements with joseph kabila the former president things are changing now his son village that kerry is now the president and they say the ceremony is to celebrate a hero a man who spoke out against corruption a man who challenge leaders such as my buddhist as the sickle laurent kabila and joseph kabila he spent decades in politics participated in several elections but he never managed to become president when joel kabila refuted that down when his term ended it was katie who led the forefront to try and convince him to leave office now all eyes will be on his son ellipse just the katie he won the election in december but it was controversial some people here believe opposition to the march of fire you won he went to court but he lost in court the judges they see that he had no case opposition critics some of them believe that perhaps some kind of deal was made with joseph kabila the former president to make sure the k.t.

becomes president and some kind of deal was made whereby we see capella still controlling some key functions the government which include parliament and senate both men deny those claims now the keeping of course is watching flitter the k.t. he has big shoes to fill in some analysts say is he going to be strong charismatic and speak out against corruption that his father did or is he going to be. leader who takes the back feet and some people believe if you're going to be told what to do by outside. and in angola the former leader of the rebel unita movement is being very barry 17 years after he was killed jonas savimbi died in a shootout with government soldiers in early 2002 is death spouts the end of a goal is long civil war so in the sami end supporters say they've waited a long time for the government to turn over his remains the decision to do so is being seen as a gesture towards national unity in libya forces loyal to the u.n.

recognize government say they've pushed warlords $25.00 times fighters south of the capital near the disused international airport they say they have also bomb tough positions in the south in april he launched a surprise military offensive to capture the libyan capital the u.n. says more than 1000 people are fed their homes to escape the fighting. leaders of muslim majority nations have condemned the u.s. for moving its embassy in israel to jerusalem the organization of islamic corporation has been meeting in saudi arabia delegate said any recognition of jerusalem as israel's capital undermined the 2 state solution. more than 45 palestinian school children were killed by israeli fire last year in the occupied west bank now teachers and students are trying to find ways to protect themselves from violence by israeli settlers and security forces the day brain reports from nablus in the occupied west bank. students. when israeli

settlers attacked their school in a village with of the occupied west bank classes to find safety but it's not always going to. people here say this happens regularly is really sad little stones at the school they shot this video and. some students threw rocks back but witnesses say settlers are often armed and have the israeli army's protection this includes life and munitions created. he tells us an israeli settler shot him from a short distance a few months ago the damage to his arm could be permanent. we were in class when the settlers started throwing rocks and fire bombs the students started defending themselves as we were leaving the school some of the settlers were armed with weapons and sharp tools i was walking when i settle a shocked me with a life bullet that went into my arm such attacks have forced some students to study in other villages or drop out of school. miss with the. i was shocked by

the declining number of students attending the school some parents say instead of losing their children to be the targets they protect them from harm and send them to labor market to make money. students who would have acted a pleased 14 times since the beginning of the school year the legal settlements are so close it means that this school is exposed to regular attacks yet this is not the only risk palestinian students have to face. children's rights organizations say students are being traumatized by school demolitions checkpoints and harassment this video shows 9 year old isn't it is being detained during a lesson this really army told the children threw stones at israeli vehicles and have the west bank and it says it has no choice but to interrogate and address children believes may be involved in violence but you are not going to say attacks on schools by settlers are increasing sometimes backed by israeli forces the military law as a whole is a system of control rather than

a system of justice and this is what they want they want to control the daily life all activities of palestinian children and adults and education is the main tool to control them hidden or if school attacks could happen any minute what students and teachers try to keep their school life as normal as they can get over it he will just the occupied west wing. an artist in taiwan has created a larger than life balloon to mark the 30th anniversary of china's pro-democracy protests the inflatable installation has been put in front of a memorial hall in taipei every calls an iconic moment in the town and men square protests. now again i'm fully back to but with the headlines on al-jazeera mexico's foreign minister is in washington for talks over president donald trump's plans to tax all

mexican goods the mexican leader andres manual lopez obrador says he expects positive results from the meeting on wednesday wants mexico to stop the flow of migrants or face a 5 percent tariff which could climb to 25 percent was in jordan has more from washington. the discussion the face to face discussion on tariffs will have to wait until much later next week now whether the mexican officials are going to be able to persuade u.s. officials to not impose this new set of tariffs starting on june 10th is really the big question and it doesn't look as if mr me be successful and that is because the president does have this unilateral right it seems to impose economic tariffs although the context is usually because of some sort of economic dispute between 2 countries not because of an unrelated policy and certainly immigration is an unrelated policy as it relates to trade issues between the u.s.

and mexico demonstrators in savannah trying to stop security forces from closing the main street outside the military headquarters in khartoum protesters demanding military rulers hand over power to a civilian government have defied warnings from the army to end the sitting there are also reports of gunfire in sudan 2nd largest city owned armaan the city has seen regular demonstrations before and after the overthrow of former president bashir in april police in the u.s. state of virginia have identified the gunman and his victims in friday's mass shooting dewayne crowder an engineer who had worked for the city of virginia beach for 15 is shot and killed 12 of his coworkers the suspect died after a long gun battle with police in libya forces loyal to the u.n. recognize governments say they've pushed warlord $25.00 times 5 to south of the capital near the old international airport they say they have also bombed have tossed positions in the south. you're upset with headlines on al-jazeera the news

will continue here after rebel geeks to stay with us. as politicians in washington the fights are over the border will we talk to the people at the center of the story many up then just said oh no it's very dangerous because since the money guns are there and it's not it's a very safe place migrants smugglers and people who live along the border. patrol just 0. digital technology offers on its interests me is my dream and im not going. even to teaching the ins and crushing nations you know ok it seems simple stuff and mention. in which everything in our lives he trains. and intended. that is convenient for profit and surveillance he only needs to be. in the book easy rescuer

chums tech john. and that name or a different technology. one rep people do not report to. the. home that's not. the problem with this but it seems that sometimes i don't really adjust for the local target zone but i just have some kind of i'm dumb time zone which is half way between when i was in the area. and then. it was very very young goes off because of.

that but then i thought it was sort space ok i'll come to the store ok. and we'll do it ok. good ones with these guys really he crossed me good you know with the. roof over there will the number of all people know that matthews the reality is we know nothing you won't get. to be friends we stopped in peace protocol without who you know which does especially the ox's to be able to build we didn't tommies we don't really having to go to 5 years the greville atomics. i'm going to show you how to melt and electronic silence that basically the 1st thing you need and i mean a microcontroller you need there do you really know code which essentially it's

a it's a computer inside one single chip doesn't have a screen doesn't have much but it can build things with some so it's. one of the early communities that jump all musicians illegal source of music old interfaces for computers then there was a lot of interactive use the lisha of the baltics. people said to use a little built the 1st open source drill. then it was the 1st open source 3 d. printer. people start to go and see oh look at this project for it's great i like you what do you use all used up to you know what he's up to you know. you guys were just in north from tustin nor you have what looks like a whole bunch of little tiny boards there mostly arduino microcontrollers so what arduino is is a open source hardware that you can use to write software that interacts with the

real world when you're holding your hand as an arduino mega it's the it's of the big one right now that i have this little chips that are called microcontrollers. he beat me because of the typical computer you will find for example in the microwave over simple terrible stuff so start using that we realized that a lot of software and hardware was a baby with an open source license we want to something that you could build yourself if you wanted to it would be to make it cheap you need to cost like a pizza so i stuck to develop what became of the wheel. what happened is that at the same time that we start to become a little bit where norm the maker movement started to. come down to 0 and look at the very man right now to me. this is the maker faire shed and we are writing to me this is making the robot which is that kind of symbol of

maker faire not even in california to have it so big. the maker faire is an event that was started about 10 years ago as a way to get the makers to get together and show what they were doing showing projects. what are you working on and this is a good way to i thought it was. all right. liquid identifying yes well why not a feel for wall street on a video on a quality i only count on it if i. thought it's pretty cool that project is quite interesting they could make that sols mold or you can put it in. a regular glossary you know you can use a form a lot of different that's an interesting project so basically we made a bunch of the any good lot of these one is like the kids can change the drawing on

the fly and you get reflected here or a very nice course at that by the whole feel of the you can. i mean the bigger picture from the bonnet and sent it over here and we know then and with painted on the. like you know only engineer for children. do that if the phone. busy company maybe. bought the software that runs up to reno gets downloaded and once again. what's happening right now is very simple. technology is pervading every aspect of

that law. at the moment that he's this perception that the can all just something you buy what's on the shelf but you know way if you look at the supermarket and it would only be pre-cooked food and you wouldn't be able to buy some fresh programs to cool then you would find that the world was not a free world you know you would have why what i thought to get canned soup only when in technology in a way now you go to a shop and there are yes $25.00 different types of tablets but effective they're all doing the same thing so what if you decide that you want to do a different topic though you don't want to do something else then you need to be able to sit down and think about it and maybe build a different one. i think if. i knew what is this is in for a sensor infrared sensor though this wire isn't. in my undergraduate

education that i i learned like a postman then i figured out that doing things with commercial is not fun actually i got what was the idea of the maker when they had english in berlin and i was no more on that. right now than we made the ruling in china but let's just. say oh. my god. that was. now a big party and there is one requirement you have to have that object not you that the plaintiff in this case i brought that i like so it's really for about money yes but i think over something else that i stopped off as a kid i was very interested in understanding go to school one christmas my parents gave me as a present this kid was a kid to learn about electronics he could build the circuit so if you make 7 you

would stick the stage to put together the disk you plug a 9 volt battery you put your phone and and suddenly you hear voices you're like wow i just be the radio so those are very important for me because you want to stand that the chronology is not as complicated as you think it is. nice collar bone. but this is where you run your do we know. let's say i want to build something that tells me when i got too much sun time you know i'm at the seaside i have to be careful otherwise i beg i could take a bus is a little component because there might be this other component. which is a light sensor. so constantly. when the month of life. and then you're putting your.

every hour. take over. so we said to people who want to build a project the 1st thing you do open one of our examples so you just have to copy. all my dog. blinks in a different way i don't know why. so you start to create the connection between what you see on the screen what's happening in the real world.

and. point of view. but the only way to. build stuff. that project that it takes like a stupid project comes from another project or somebody and they became that became that. impression that these 2 other people made back. to dr particular to see people that essentially step number 5 of 25 and at the end

of the line there may be a very relevant thing that comes out of. that. hydrogen explosion has occurred at unit 3 of japan's stricken put the human daiichi nuclear plant. and japanese authorities have ordered people within a 12 mile radius of the plant to remain inside more than 180000 people have been evacuated from the area. this is the hotel you can feel this is to be hoped though. the people who they used to live here they cannot come back here anymore because all of. new korea

occident. that it was really on clear about the the information. that radiation contamination was we can the see if we can this made it we can offer you anything i didn't seeing the government is hiding anything i saw the government just cannot do cannot control the situation betty will because he was very quite chaotic. i just sold if i have this energy i ship you know something something something for others. i miss hunt that's how i start in building sift guessed. the outside these high right now the whole point scene 7 in sadness about legacy about hollow experience you don't see this number so.

the box on the other there and the receiver that's sitting here is one of our 3rd generation a guy and he says it has a geiger counter and a g.p.s. receiver and it was in every 5 seconds location. time and now though the radiation of also everywhere i go and it's creating a data point every 5 seconds along this road which will upload our maps and be able to see the radiation levels around us and. there was no question we would use any but we know from the very 1st. when the government tried to put out the information they basically said it was no problem in fukushima and there clearly was people didn't know what to believe. and we have here and we do work that there's older come to me from the girder cumbered and

communicates with the p.c. to get through the radiation level. retrieval that we were desperate to get the data on the maps we had to act quickly if we got 75 percent reliable data right away that was way better than 100 percent reliable data 2 years too late and . we got something working drum machine. big i. read approved we have some strong rains outside. what are we measuring here right now to stay brood 36 now so it has to come out 360 receive very persistent there reducing numbers coming. out of this these meetings with the plane with the dean of the comics for a certain amount of coffee and they wouldn't have been able to wake up one day and build a network all network connected to geiger counters in the space of these a community needed them. and they were ready.

so it's. all still ruder frank i'm not in the did we call these radiation droids because it kind of looks like r 2 d 2 so from star wars and these are these are the ones that started appearing but a year after jack all around fukushima this is this you know this is the japan this is the new one. where the problem is is that the government doesn't say anything about them we found them by just coming across them as oh somebody putting in sensors there's no signs on who owns them or who installed them or how they work or where you can find the data online alians could have dropped this here . or is it 1.0. sorry 6

but anyway 1.0 micro see about prove every compared to 4 years of all the number has been decreased about that's because half life of cesium one city 134 or 37 this . the health effects of the stress of the incentives for example are having a very sizeable impact on the people up there you know it doesn't matter if the fear you have is based on something real and rational or irrational it's still a stress in people have a right to be told what's going on. i know this if just an excuse to like. a dog all cut him up at the dinner this. looks like it. needs to. stay. with him again but the other night due to all. the conduct are. there sort of

our being out there are so many more that's not good money month the minute they need. the least get it the more this is to do with us i need. to stand up the wall near. his home not in a good mother get up there one for me. so that my. med they meet their sort of up. the man on the bottom is a line of look at it by its cue the moment many and i'm on. this i would consider this number to point 10.15.18 the reading for this position.

this is you know since they meter susie did it then they had to imitate that and us get a more color on the 2nd i hate the most greek and also their whole whole organized dot com lot of it if you want to the title of this and the mcconnell had limited to that well you know which of the hottest. but it is the last the hamas stated book where the what i typed the kite. so you could pick up the car. on seem to go to the more you gotta get it more as you when i got there the wanted an offical or a silly not to. give an amazing feeling when i come across this kind of person. this

is something that nobody could have and. when you make something they can appreciate you don't think oh yeah one day somebody will probably use it to crowdsource radiation. but the fact that you've created tools that enable people to do that gives you hope on the fact that there will be other situations where we can build something knowledge which is independently created and will help us in other situations like this. there is no safe level of radiation more radiation you get the more risk you have of a causing some kind of disease. people in korea or new. most of those places if the radiation were to stay stable to rest of life would probably increase their lifetime rate of cancer by half a percent doesn't sound like a lot when half a percent of 100000 people get cancer what's that $500.00 people so from an individual risk point of view it might be manageable from a free society point of view it's serious.

but then the franklin you see god we've got us going i think. that he might. say cast is deploying a new network of sensors in the occasions so we're going to put sensors that are instead of being on a car they're going to be on a building and they'll measure 24 hours a day. some people say it's. their radiation it's gone already and they don't want to talk about it anymore and they should learn more about the specific information and using the human pen and data is our data are no they're they're. not that one. i don't know it's not that i know. that's it it's on.

it's i don't know i don't consider his his get it on the level of you know toaster to space shuttle it's a lot closer to a toaster and one sensor you know provide some data but it's going to be the network and then the string of data that comes from this and other ones it's going to have a have a big picture so you know it's one small piece of a very big network. the most recent reading is 20 c.p.m. 7 minutes ago. we started from almost nothing to barely workable system in a week and within a month we had something that was pretty good within 3 months we had something that was world class within a year. we are the largest open data database on radiation information anywhere. and.

because the community now is not. that sort of people to realize that he's no one among them to be me so they're trying to kind of cash in into this thing but they don't understand that by doing this they might make some money now but then they would in the community which is your blood easier you know what keeps you alive. there were different moments that i could have given up but i believe you can build the business makes you more money than you would ever need in your life and yet you create something which is a lasting value for many more. i'm going to fight the legal battle but in the saying i want to work with my friends who believe in what i do. every allies that i spent the last 10 years basically almost like putting money into

a lot of bank accounts that are not made of money that are made of reputation that are made of respect that are made of love and now that this thing is happening to me and basically going out and everybody's basically giving me back. all the love i give them we've interests. i don't want to live in a world where everything around me is the zine in california and made in china by somebody just make stuff because otherwise they will drive the choices we make where they will drive their way we will be creating the only way to be subversive enough for fish nowadays is to be able to control the technology in a way you can propose an alternative. i also like the spirit that because you're makers that you're nothing about making mistakes you know larry screwed up that is progress that's how you keep going to kill it you know you never know when the next one happens if that happens anywhere

else ignored all that is people can't help right away we know how to do. burn the read so that i could read every man a creator a twit tax returns to activism with a new mission i sell him with my job trying to build software. but can't digital dissident squad within the technological for it's a race against the kurds in the patients when they're still from the capitalists to the rebel geek series. on june the 4th from

years had a pretty tough immigration policy against central americans and we're just asking them to help us to not be the gateway between the northern travel countries the people pouring in you've seen the statistics 1000 just yesterday or so or up to 100000 in some months. that just can't be. done during his morning press conference mexican president. called on the u.s. to engage in a rational dialogue mexico's deputy economy minister. offered her own jabbing at the idea of tariffs. they have to understand that this way of going forward is not in the interests of the united states and secondly of course know that mexico has the legal instruments or using it becomes necessary because we think this is an arbitrary and abusive measure talks going on now between the u.s. and mexican authorities will likely include with the latest developments mean for the pending trilateral trade deal between the us mexico and canada what remains to

be seen is whether the threat of tariffs will simply evaporate like the time president from britain to close the us mexico border but never did when it up and mexico city let's we're going to jordan she's covering the story joining us from washington d.c. so as we're saying the mexican foreign minister is in washington for talks rosalind what can we expect. well 1st off during those talks probably aren't going to happen until late next week and that's because mike pond peo the u.s. secretary of state is in europe right now he's been meeting with their german chancellor angela merkel he's going to be going with the president when he attends a state visit in the united kingdom and so probably there's not going to be a meeting between the secretary of state and foreign ministry abroad until probably next thursday or friday at the earliest but the effort is going to be to try to see if the u.s. can be persuaded to not impose

a 5 percent tariff on mexican goods being brought into the united states that's not just things you know such as televisions or computer parts but also food a lot of the fresh produce that americans enjoy is grown in mexico and that 5 percent tariff would likely show up as a 5 percent increase in the cost of those goods at the supermarket and rosalyn in the mexican president to meanwhile is saying this that he expects a good results and he is encouraged by the u.s. is willingness to have dialogue over trump's tariff plan are you getting the same sense if encouragement from the u.s. side that there might be a chance trump well back down. well there hasn't been anything beyond what we heard from white house officials on friday saying that what mexico needs to do in order to avoid these tariffs is to enforce a no much tougher policy on central american like once we're trying to make their

way to the united states that is the reason why donald trump the u.s. president said that he's going to impose this tariff starting on monday june 10th not because of any unfair trade practices that mexican businesses might be engaging in practices that could be harming u.s. businesses this has nothing to do with an economic dispute and that is what really has a both republicans and democrats in congress quite concerned and condemning the threat of a tariff and it's not clear that the president would be inclined to listen to a bipartisan group of legislators because the president seems to think that he has the ability to impose this tariff so a less there seems to be a change in what the president says is bothering him which is immigration it's probably fair to assume that this new tariff will take effect in about 9 days' time ok ok jordan thank you for that update from washington we're going to pick up on

that notify me gratian and bring in robert scott is a senior international economist at the economic poly policy institute is joining us via skype from maryland good to speak with you again on al-jazeera robert scott we'll get into the issues of the exact tariffs in a moment but 1st let me ask you this so trump and the white house they're asking for substantial progress from mexico when it comes to the issue of stemming the flow of migrants so do these tariffs then help the immigration policy in any way. not in my view trade and immigration policy are not and should not be connected i think we really have to understand a little bit about what's going on at the border we do not have an immigration crisis in fact under authorized immigration is at the lowest level in a decade what we have is a refugee crisis. 61 percent of the people that arrived here in january

were families and children these are people largely coming from honduras guatemala and el salvador that are have been traumatized by drug wars and those drug wars in turn habits funded in part by the u.s. government are sending tons of military equipment and weapons countries for their police force so we are creating the problem that's creating the flow of refugees to this country like a case against terrorists actually do take effect in less than 2 weeks time is it safe to say that mexico will have no choice but to retaliate. mexico's in a very difficult position the terrorists would be bad to the u.s. it would cost us jobs it would devastate mexico i'm not sure that mexico is in a position to get into a trade war with the u.s. but we do know that a prolonged trade war would lead to massive unemployment in mexico and ironically it could make the immigration problem worse we could see us nother surge in an

authorized immigration as we did in 19941995 after the mexican peso crisis when nafta took effect so it is trump really going to create his own pace of crisis here that's where we seem to be headed well is there a chance that trump and his administration has are going to back down from this threat and what do you think they'll caucus for the week with the mexican foreign minister in washington now and he and his men to meet up on pay or later this week . it's very tough to predict what trump is going to do i would say and this is really going to election ploy this is speaking to his base and telling him he's getting tough on immigration he's looking for press releases for news hits and i says back to the end of the day he'll have to back off simply because of the incredible pressure he's getting from both republicans and democrats and in congress as well as the business community i think it's well it well known this is

going to be a disaster for for both the u.s. and mexico all right robert scott we thank you very much for speaking to us from maryland in the states. now shots have been fired towards protesters in sudan's capital hard as the army tried to stop demonstrators from setting up barricades outside the military headquarters there's been a large sit in there by those who are demanding a civilian government a military council has ruled sudan since long time president obama was forced from power in april and there are also reports of gunfire in sudan 2nd largest city under mine where there have been regular process before and since bessy it is ousting let's bring in our lead is the founder and president of sudan policy for me is joining us here on set what are you hearing about the situation in hard to right now because the feeling among some is that it could take a turn for the worse. you know i think we are already in the 2nd of

the revolutions sudan has moved into disick and because the government now is completely working under the auspices of foreign nations what do you mean by the 2nd stage the. they will they were putting an act i mean the team see the transition in military was putting an ak trying to do deceive the protestors and the sudanese people into thinking that they are the guardians of the national sovereignty they are willing to. influence you know the transition to democracy they would help facilitate the transition but obviously speaking i mean after visits to some. i think. they have no ability to pull such an act i mean all of the probably they have received some assurances that they don't need to worry about you know the tin the dynamics of the

nation what sort of assurances are you talking about and by whom. i want to be able to specific i mean countries but it's very obvious that that has. visited saudi arabia general. and his vice meaty they came up with a different look at the they are now putting a different face previously they were very diplomatic in their appeal to the people i know they are very blunt. and it seems that. they are not very much worried about the intended dynamics because probably they have received tons of money and they have received assurances that they will get some support from international policy of not regional powers but what is me more is. no i mean by if the by adopting such a policy it seems that they are unwilling to think about the consequences of such

a blunt act i mean both locally and in 10 many. regionally in 10 many i think that they.
