dynamics around the security council table certainly there are some countries that are very concerned about the situation statements coming out from the so-called troika countries they're actually historic grouping going back before the time when south sudan split from saddam they were formed during that time during the comprehensive peace agreement negotiations to try and guide sudan and then south sudan as an international steering group they the u.s. nor in the u.k. of express their deep concern the u.k. along with germany are the ones that called for the security council meeting and the german ambassador spoke to reporters. we need urgently a return to the negotiating table legitimacy cannot come from the barrel of a gun but has to be achieved again in the process of it it's

a long one maybe sometimes a painful one but there is no eternity but to this transition to a civilian let is to civilian led government so into are we doing. we do support work to secretary-general what also the african union has asked for and again we want this into security council we want to raise attention on the situation we find quite worrying. the words of the german ambassador now are we going to see a similar statement coming from the whole security council read out by the president of the council which from this month for the last few days has been kuwait that's not clear it's really not clear whether all of the security council are so critical of the transitional military council at this stage where did the 3 african members of the security council stand they certainly in the past have said that the african union should take the lead on this issue but clearly the african

union had indorsed the previous timeline for the handover to civilian control that the military council has now dismissed also where for example does russia stand which has put out some noises some diplomats suggesting that they are quite favorable to the transitional military council and remember very complicated regional the now mix with countries like the united arab emirates and saudi arabia we know have been in very close contact with the military in khartoum james bowles thank you very much indeed. thank. you u.s. president has promised a phenomenal trade deal for a post bricks at burrton donald trump held talks with outgoing prime minister to resume a in the british capital during the 2nd day of his state visit trump seem to ignore potential friction over dealings with chinese telecoms john huawei leaving that for

may's replacement donahoe has more from london. what in other circumstances would be a significant meeting was on this occasion far more low key the u.s. president alongside a british prime minister on the verge of stepping down for the past 2 and a half the president and i have had the privilege of being the latest guardians of this precious and profound friendship between our countries there was no avoiding breaks it and opposed breaks a trade deal between the 2 countries donald trump is a big fan of both i would say i would think that it will happen and it probably should happen this is a great great country and it wants its own identity it wants to have its own borders it wants to run its own affairs is a very very special place and i think it deserves a special place on the topline point of contention between the 2 sides the role of

the chinese telecoms giant in building the u.k.'s 5 g. network president trump seemed to brush the issue aside there will be an agreement he said not to worry he seemed to imply leave it to mrs may's successor on which point the president has made his views very public indorsing top contenders boris johnson the former foreign secretary and the current foreign secretary jeremy hunt . environment minister michael gove also a front runner he said he didn't know very well there was talk of a one on one meeting it was as if the former reality t.v. star was back candidates this time for the job of british prime minister at the business end of this state visit donald trump was most at home around the table talking deals. today even the national health service he said later should be part of future trade talks look i think everything with a trade deal is on the table when you when you're dealing in trade everything's on

the table so anything else. it's the glamour of a state visit to lavish attention of royalty great britain wants a valued and strategic partner is to this president it seems a deal waiting to be dumped. al-jazeera. or domestically in the u.k. there was major concern about trump's comments about the nation's public health service being up for negotiation in any future trade deal just hours later he appears to have rode back on his comments i don't see had been on the table somebody asked me a question today and i say everything's up for negotiation because everything is but i don't see that being that something that i would not consider part of trade that's not trade. several 1000 anti trump demonstrations marched through central london in protest against the u.s. president's visit the trump dismissed the demonstrations as a small protest and claimed he'd seen cheering crowds paul brennan was there i

found out. it was billed as a carnival of resistance and the demonstrations certainly included elements of performance as well as protest costumes and fancy dress one group dressed as characters from the hung made tale some placards were simple others subtle many simply too profane to show on television or even trump impersonators we have reached a deal to kinda show you. the 6 meter tall trump baby blimp was back after 1st appearing in 2018 of the republican effigy titles dumped trump made its debut this year i do respect democracy but i'm ashamed of this country for inviting him and treating him with pomp and dignity i thought that the british government was about that kind of thing to be able to welcome somebody who's kind of been knew though fascist a short distance from where the president was meeting the prime minister the stage

had been set up to host several high profile speakers look around and. look at each other. we are young we are old we're black we're why we disabled going l g p t where the whole wonderful most saying of diversity and inclusion that we represent on this demonstration today i. isolated confrontations between protesters and some vocal pro trump individuals but they were quickly contained. protest organizers had anticipated the degree of outrage for teagan certainly the numbers on this protest are a fraction of the 250000 the turned out when president something lasting so long that in 2018 on the last visit to the us president has succeeded in uniting a kaleidoscope of different courses from pro-feminist fascists. when he was asked by journalists about the protests outside president trump claimed to have seen only

cheering supporters as the demonstration he said was a small protests and the media attention obvious fake news i don't see any protests i did see a small protest today when i came very small so a lot of it is fake news i hate to say but you saw the the people waving the american flag waving your flag it was tremendous spirit and love for the most part the public is being kept well back from the president and his own suraj but if president trump was really of little use to the chorus of his motorcade left downing street it can only have been because of the remarkable sound proofing of his official limousine. al-jazeera central london. to head this half hour we'll report from a camp in northern syria west thousands of displaced people and facing eviction. and the case of the u.s. navy's special forces soldier that's raising big questions about donald trump undermining the u.s. military.

unclear whether the u.s. would agree to the mexican president's offer to end the drug war but it's also not the type of policy that could be applied overnight certainly not unusual to go private growers like carlos say legalization is inevitable for now he's trying to perfect the growing process so he can launch a legitimate marijuana business if and when the mexican government makes a. mexico city. the top stories on our. protest organizers in sudan say at least 10 people have been killed by gunfire from security forces at least 50 people have been killed in total since a crackdown by a paramilitary group began on monday opposition leaders are rejecting the ruling military joined his call to hold elections within 9 months saying it's too short a period the u.n. human rights agency is calling on the military to return to negotiations. instead
