sudan professionals association says the ruling jointer will be held accountable for any bloodshed. trump has just landed in britain for a 3 day state visit the u.s. president's trip includes an audience with the queen elizabeth the 2nd and d.-day commemorations sarah believes he's also expected to discuss climate change on the chinese technology way during a meeting with the outgoing prime minister to resume a lawrence lee is our correspondent following events for us from the british capital and of course the trip is sort of mired in controversy. well yes and then the thing about the state visits usually is a bit very delicately choreographed and there are all sorts of diplomatic protocols that the leaders observe with a view to either improving relations between countries all in the case of the u.s. and the u.k. cementing what's supposed to be a special relationship anyway but you know you don't need me to tell you that
6:05 pm
donald trump is an ordinary president and and he's setting off setting or small hand grenades really everywhere you go there's an ongoing row even inside the rule family not just politicians here describing meghan markle the duchess of sussex as as a nasty person she's in the ongoing. with him she was isn't doesn't doesn't like him at all and so she's not going to meet him when when he meets member of the royal family here there's lots of suggestion that prince charles who is missing the solves the noon who was environmentalist's will will take from pan over over climate change in the american withdrawal from the paris climate's agreements and that's before going to the politics there are several political leaders of the main opposition groups and the and the speaker of the house of commons who boycotting tonight's state banquets and he was on the trip was landing in these plane he launched a fuse a laws that said he can the mayor of london who absolutely hates trump and described him as a 20th century fascists. then as he was landing in air force one sent out
6:06 pm
a tweet describing so he can as a stone cold loser and you know. these these things just just aren't done really and it does make you wonder why trump actually wants to do this and a lot of people i think take the view that he's actually much more interested in the optics of what it looks like in the united states of him meeting the queen much went into that potentially than then the political fallout of all of it because it is it is very very difficult for politicians even those who support breck's it's a want to trade deal with united states to understand what they're going to do with him in the sort of language that he's using and he's not the 1st president lawrence who's actually commented on bricks it of course that's a huge issue between again the u.k. and the u.s. depending on what the outcome will be. yeah it is it is an enormous contrast with president obama who very much wants the u.k. to stay in the e.u.
6:07 pm
and insert himself into the referendum debate 3 years ago by saying that the u.k. would struggle to get a trade deal with the u.s. if it left donald trump takes exactly the opposite view has made it very clear that he supports both boris johnson and nigel farage sure arch bracks as johnson very much wants to be and is the is the favorite to become the next prime minister and chumps visit was trailed by an insecure that the american ambassador to london gave yesterday in which he said that any future trade deal between the u.s. and u.k. or should involve parts of the british national health service which is publicly owned being being put up for sale to the americans and that is the single most toxic thing that anybody could say because no body who wants to become british prime minister could countenance the idea of the health service being sold off and so you now have leading politicians here who want to be prime minister backpedaling and saying we can't we can't even conceive of this and not as an idea and it
6:08 pm
doesn't make you wonder in the end you know a trade deal with the united states if the u.k. leaves the your opinion is really the holy grail for brics it is but that sort of language the the americans are using over all this does actually make it quite difficult for them to explain how they would see parts of it through sure it would be a very nuanced day and one that you'll learn pick for us as it progresses for the moment lawrence thank you. 2 top american officials have expressed extremely different views on the government's long awaited middle east peace plan the washington post obtained an audio recording of want pompei in which the secretary of state questions how people will perceive the still secret plan alexia brian explains. secretary of state mike was speaking to leaders of jewish organizations in the u.s. when he gave his candid assessment of the so-called deal of the century he said it could be argued that the white house plan for peace between israel and the palestinians is executable i get why people think this is going to be. a
6:09 pm
deal that only the israelis go out i understand the perception of. the space. back we we have struck the right place the palestinians have already dismissed the plan outright calling it a blueprint for israeli domination probably going to be described as historians as the biggest laughingstock of any diplomatic on paper negotiation that doesn't even get underway in history i mean it is dead on arrival and pompei 0 is actually to our surprise revealing that his own personal opinion on this is that it's not going to go very far at all the u.s. has enraged the palestinians by moving its embassy to jerusalem and cashing aid to the palestinian authority despite that white house adviser jared cushion told the h.b.o. program x. ers the deal was in the palestinians best interest regards the palestinian people i
6:10 pm
do believe that they want to have a better life and i do think that they're not going to join in my head being well they're not going to judge anything based on trust me you're trusting anyone else they're going to judge you based on the facts and then make a determination do they think this will allow them to have a pathway to a better life or not cushion has been and jerusalem rallying support holding talks with prime minister benjamin netanyahu. a day after parliament was dissolved and an unprecedented 2nd election called just 7 weeks after the last one failed to get their act together. now all of a sudden they get up to go through the process bill september that's ridiculous so we're not happy about that but if we can get. the players any good. the roll out of trump's deal of the century is already delayed if its release is pushed back any further it will end up being overtaken by campaigning for the us presidential election and 2020 meaning the deal could be over before it's even begun. al-jazeera
6:11 pm
. qatar's foreign ministers have told al-jazeera the team has reservations about the statements on iran that came out of the summits held in mecca last week the tory prime minister attended the events despite the ongoing blockade of qatar by several of its gulf neighbors it was the highest level of contact between the 2 sides once the crisis began 2 years ago. we had reservations about many parts of the statement these elements include 1st the issue of only condemning iran and the escalation against it in the absence of any moderate policy to engage in dialogue with iran or to solve the challenges which could exist in the relationship between the gulf states and iran or between the arab states and iran on another side on we have the adoption of the american policy towards iran respect american policy towards iran but it is different from our policy from one that got to be on the statement also mentioned the united whereas the night of the gulf when we have 3
6:12 pm
gulf states blockading another gulf state whereas the united go through are we deceiving our people with such a statement. to the americas no after more than 2 years of inquiries the canadian government is set to receive a report on missing and murdered indigenous women but the day before going public the report was leaked calling the disappearance and murder of possibly thousands of women a canadian genocide she returns and spoke to some of those affected by the violence . maggies i wouldn't sister sonia was murdered in 1904 yet she had so little faith in the national inquiry into missing and murdered indigenous women and girls she chose not to testify families monitor the. police killings that had taken place investigated they wanted their missing brought home so those kinds of things are never able to be not able to have been answered with this inquiry and it's not that they haven't been calls for a specific investigation into the disproportionate violence directed at indigenous
6:13 pm
women in canada just 4 percent of the population but 16 percent of reported nationwide homicides justin trudeau followed through on his campaign pledge announcing inquiry and 2015 and the inquiries goal was not simply long awaited official recognition of decades of brutality the work that we're going to be doing research and care systemic causes for murderous and disappearance that after 2 and a half years and $68000000.00 it appears that the inquiry will basically state the obvious the problem lies in the economic and social marginalization of indigenous communities institutional racism violence and indifference to the all out quite overt cultural war waged against the indigenous by the canadian states hilda allison pitts assistant dormice found dead in 2011 her body badly bruised but authorities blamed exposure due to intoxication like many she's critical of how rushed the inquiry seemed as it parish it into communities without building trust
6:14 pm
and asked for painful testimony in an institutional setting reminiscent of the judicial system that attacks the indigenous nonetheless she found testifying to the inquiry worthwhile for many they never shared their story with anybody prior to the national inquiry coming forward and they felt they could take their story and leave it there and move forward in their healing process hilda is skeptical but feels it's a disservice to all those who like her share the. truth to dismiss the possibility that the inquiry will lead to meaningful change just getting this message out is an achievement i think it's really important canadians to recognize that many indigenous women and girls who live in 1st nation 1st nation communities are living in 3rd world conditions but while few will dispute the reported findings of the inquiry some wonder what good any recommendations will be if the federal and provincial governments are the ones expected to be in charge of implementation is so colonial government executing to
6:15 pm
a clown all governments and that is the reason why we have missing and murder it's genocide canada is not the only country built on colonial violence genocide as the inquiry has reportedly found but the government does have yet another opportunity to address that legacy on monday she had her town see al-jazeera. 6 months into his administration mexican president manuel obrador is struggling to curb the wave of violence in the country says he wants to use social programs that a lot of lift people out of poverty but prevents young people and unemployed adults from ending up in organized crime i was there as manuel republic has the latest in a series of protests 1st 6 months in office. in the mountains a very crude mexico 29 year old make any metal meat is is tending to a cornfield she was able to get her own agricultural project off the ground with the help of a government subsidy part of a series of new social programs created by the federal government this specific
6:16 pm
program is aimed at lifting rural farmers out of poverty but also aims to pay young people to learn a new trade. in the hope it's true that young people want everything fast they want easy money they think everything in life is easy in this life nothing's easy you have to work so if the government wants to give us a hand then let's get to work with. the state of it produce where miguelina lives has a high level of violence and there were $682.00 homicides reported in the state in just the 1st few months of the year nationwide violence is on the rise and spreading to otherwise peaceful parts of the country president and the basement of a locus of other hopes his social programs for young people will work as a deterrent against crime in mexico city we spoke to 3 teenagers who are enrolled in a government scholarship program they've experienced the violence firsthand and believe the newly formed social programs will have a positive impact on deterring future criminals me when they get that big and
6:17 pm
believe me robbers are common where i live murders are common gunshots at night are common and if the government can reduce the number of people becoming involved in crime slowly everything else will fix itself but the financial assistance to young people as a strategy for crime prevention is certainly a novel idea for the country but mexico is already on track to surpass a. last year's record setting homicide rate and not everyone seems convinced the social programs are working honest also when we're talking about public funds in a country with cities that have series and security issues where records of violence continue to be broken it's not about how much money you give a young person. in the case of impoverished farmers and very crews there does appear to be a high expectation from the president's initiative even if the results aren't immediately visible this is one of the 1st fields that was planted by farmers with assistance from the government it'll still be several months before the corn can be
6:18 pm
harvested perhaps the same could be said about seeing the benefits of a program that goes beyond a government handout but gives rural farmers a renewed incentive and desire to work the land went up a little. bit across mexico and next in our series on president overalls 1st 6 months in office we'll look at the progress of one of his most controversial policies to decriminalize all drugs and reform mexico's narcotics laws that some choose stay here on al-jazeera. they want to count as their homes the whole roman these are all top stories at least 9 people have been killed and many more seriously injured after a heavily armed troops opened fire on demonstrators in the capital khartoum witnesses say the violence began when troops tried to break up a protest camp outside the military headquarters well those forces surrounded 2 hospitals in the capital and stormed one of them and are said to be not letting

i grew up in the terrorists. i grew up with soil with people living by seasons i grew up with my grandmother planting seeds and cultivating. so i think it was an attempt to return to something. i would have. thought. before. it started with me trying to collect seeds of things i love that i felt were disappearing. and i started to put them in jars. and so i just would post things on facebook and then slowly people started to become more aware of what i was doing
6:23 pm
and then asking me if i have this either or sharing stories about seeds the. their grandmother used to grow or something their mother used to cook everyone had a story. when i sit with farmers who remember this week they all say of the summer is like you talking about from our summer and there were in the early summer the dark and handsome so many people talk about him. as this long lost love.

a while kind of left. untended to it particularly the garden and the terraces. this place now is being transformed from a family home to an art and research center. and i'm very proud to be the 1st landscaper resident and so the idea was to somehow revive these terraces. but i wanted to create a plot that represents the beauty of the feeling of safety and home in the midst of this area where we're right by the wall where a lot of confrontations happened. and we're planting newfie year which is a kind of a mallow plants that we make as

6:36 pm
constantly living in this duality of violence and death and life all living at the same time. and actually the violence is in the sort of that we're working in right now because the 1st few days the volunteers have been focusing on collecting the glass tear gas canisters were found in this very spot because that's where the confrontations happened. i feel that what i want to do in life isn't resist anything as much as create more beauty. and i think it's very important that we give the new generation something alive rather than all this concrete that we're leaving them with. my head be in the left or the neck sunflower really
6:37 pm
had. that honor from the monkey. and the father loved him. there is a big that is not. going to get a little. fast but in the me and. my grandmother really put up me so much without her intention to teach me. i just really observed what she was doing all the time. i used to love stealing pomegranates from the neighbors and one time you know i was feeling so bad and i when i told her you know my friend that she was going to be
6:38 pm
very upset but she said don't toy need to was given to us by god so that we can all enjoy it. it's a very beautiful thing because it is actually very true that nature does belong to all of us and it wasn't created with deeds and paperwork and everyone has a right to well and no one should go hungry. to do the work of the seed library we're finding that more and more people want the stuff which for me is the greatest success of it all because the suddenly became cool desirable so one of these heirloom varieties and i think the reason is that we were able to really tell the stories of these varieties.
