and political crises well with 700000 of them left since the end of 2015 the un is describing the figure as alarming and says urgent help is still needed to host them in other countries particularly in latin america more on this with our latin america edison to see a new man in san diego 4000000 but see an enormous number and i suspect 4000000 and counting it would only grow absolutely come out i think that 4000000 is probably a conservative figure at this point remember the united nations issues these reports months after they've done the counting and from what we've been able to see on our numerous trips to venezuela the numbers of people that are leaving that are trying to find relief for especially the economic crisis just seems to grow and grow and in fact the united nations and other international organizations that specialize in migration are predicting that they'll the these numbers could reach 6000000 at least by the end of this year now around are several and march the number of an israel and leaving the country seem to have eased

a bit amid hopes that there could be a solution to the political crisis which could have led perhaps to an easing of the economic one but none of that happened and so the numbers are increasing and they're really speeding up at this point come out to list of these people are coming here to latin america and that's what i wanted to ask you more about it's you've reported from venezuela but i'm sure you've reported from elsewhere the pressure on those other latin american countries that this exodus puts. absolutely these countries can't cope with it there's no question about that i mean all of our viewers have seen the caravans of thousands of central americans rushing to the border with the u.s. between mexico and the united states just imagine the inverse millions of people not thousands coming here to latin american countries that in many cases can't even cope with the needs of their own people at this hour for example there's a demonstration in ecuador people complaining about the high unemployment rate well ecuador has received more than half

a 1000000 venezuelan refugees the same is happening in peru more than a 1000000 in colombia and those numbers grow and grow and that's why latin american countries are asking for the international community to pitch in to help them share with this responsibility come out thank you lucy in human in santiago here's what's coming up for you on this news hour where the philippines government is facing international pressure over its drugs war as it stands growing youth movement rallies supporters ahead of a presidential election and in sport the biggest event in the history of women's sport about to kick off in france we are live at the football world cup later this hour. britain's prime minister theresa may is officially stepping down as the leader of her conservative party she will continue to serve as prime minister while the party chooses her successor 11 days currently in that race to reason they announced her resignation 2 weeks ago

after parliament voted down her break that deal for a 3rd time. still in the u.k. and may's governing conservative party was beaten into 3rd place in a by election in the city of peterborough the newly formed brags that party came in 2nd after their strong performance in the european elections last month however it was labor which came in 1st and kept its seat despite differing opinions across our city the fact that the bricks of party have been rejected here in pizza for a shows that the politics. shows that the politics of division will not quit. this is a result for every community in peterborough to night's victory is significant because it has shown that the politics of hope can win regardless of the odds more on all of this now with lawrence lay in london. it is certainly the

measure of the success of the new brix it policy in a short existence that not winning overnight in coming of very very close 2nd to the labor policy is now being seen as a surprise and in some terms something of a failure for them but there is absolutely no down saying that the brics it policy is having the most enormous influence on politics here in western so there's a poll today for the london times newspaper about westminster voting intentions if they were to be a national election which puts the brakes of policy well out in front on 26 percent with the labor party in the liberal democrats who don't want precious little in joint 2nd 20 and the conservatives still in government but in a complete pickle on 18 percent so we now really into 4 party politics and if you think of the brics that party really is more of a massive pressure group than a political organization does not a manifesto on any policies other than direct states what it's able to do is to

force the conservative policy and all those candidates who want to be the next prime minister and leave it as body up to trees in may to address and adopt their policies and so you have people boris johnson saying we're going to have to leave without a deal on october 31st which is when the europeans extension runs out and so the bracks it policy is dragging the conservatives to its position it does create the most enormous problem for the conservative party because anybody who becomes prime minister vowing to leave at the end of october without a deal will immediately face of ocean no confidence in the house of commons and they could easily lose that and that could collapse the government so as difficult as everything has been to they would dress it up until now things get an even worse for the conservative party over the summer. meanwhile judges in britain's high court of throwing out an attempt to prosecute politician boris johnson for allegedly lying about brags that last month johnson was told to appear in court for saying during the 26th in referendum that britain would be about $400000000.00

a week better off outside of the european union johnson's lawyers though appealed arguing the case was politically motivated of course remember boris johnson the front runner to succeed to reason may as prime minister. demonstrators in liberia's capital are protesting against rising prices and corruption of a president george wales handling of the economy he came to power 18 months ago promising to create jobs and to tackle corruption the united nations says it is concerned the government may not be able to handle large scale protests let's put that now to eugene who is the liberian minister of information thank you for your time minister what do you say in response to the u.n. which things that might you might not be able to handle these protests. well every day. this morning about 6 members of the german who. are amazing. in the streets of monrovia.

a new level of more than $100000000000.00 between the 2 countries but at the same time both nations china and russia are going to normal times when the united states president putin used the strongest language u.s. efforts to dominate the world market is a recipe for conflicts and wars and even mention to our way as an example where he's asked misuse this as enough to push the company out of the market. a new role the u.s. dollar has to be revisited it used to be the world's reserve currency but right now it's turned into a tool of issuing country to be used to pressure the rest of the world i think that is the error of the financial political authorities because trust in the u.s. dollar is falling president xi jinping used last strong language but he made it very clear that competing is not the way to go but we have to unite all our efforts basically a strong message to the united states to work together he was talking about honest

a lot in the last 4 years particularly in europe some really strong and i think this is going to be something it's going to capture the imagination going to great ceremony with giant is a very big artist in france and around the globe i think is going to be a lot of excitement over the next month and it really is going to be a big success lead to host of semen the big chance of winning but he's likely to be lifting the trophy next month. it's interesting you mention the house right away i covered the 99 men's world cup in france and the men some belt by weren't favorites or anything at the start of it and then they went on to win it and that chile when i was speaking to people throughout the way. is the people from favorite people with a big interest in women's football who really fancied to win this a lot of them said from that host nation advantage and if they can build momentum get the french public behind them but of course the strongest team going into it would in theory be the united states they try to feel how does that saying that

behind the magic of mario franco on al-jazeera. you stand the differences. and the similarities of cultures across the world. and al-jazeera. if europeans prime minister meet sudan's protest leaders and the military. tries to ease the country's crisis. hello once again from doha everyone i'm kemal santamaria and this is the world news

from al-jazeera. was the anger over a sinking economy and rising prices sends thousands out onto the streets of liberia . also the british prime minister theresa may has officially stepped down as the head of the conservative party a move triggered by her failure to deliver brags it's. the weather shouldn't be like this it used to rain in the middle of april. and forced to leave the country because of climate change a new factor in the u.s. immigration crisis. the ethiopian prime minister says he has stressed the need for unity in his efforts to mediate between sudan's ruling military and the protest leaders who are calling for civilian rule that it met members of the declaration of freedom and change forces the coalition of political groups and parties representing the protesters

and many members of the military council as well in khartoum notably absent though we have to say general mohammad the girl who leads the so-called rapid support forces the ones have been blamed for most of the atrocities committed during the crackdown also the united nations human rights chief wants to send in a monitoring team after a violent week in sudan in which more than 100 people were killed the latest now with stephanie. the picture is slowly emerging of what happened in sudan on monday the 3rd of june the. grief fills this hospital room. bodies lined the floor. and internet blackout imposed by the military council means mobile phone footage has been slow to make it out. but everything points to a gruesome bloody day a peaceful sit in that ended in this. with reports of rapes beatings and killings

at the hands of the paramilitary rapid support forces were told many people are still missing. in an effort to resolve the crisis in prime minister abu ahmed arrived in khartoum on friday for meetings with the military council and protest groups the african union suspended sudan on thursday until the military hand over power to civilians the military council would have a stake in what happens in sudan in the future. many of these people who are now leading the transitional military council are people who have been leading the sudanese military for a very long period of time this is a military that has been involved in via is atrocities various abuses part. clearly in darfur back in 20032004 there are questions of accountability that fully said one of the strongest and loudest voices in this process of transition and there are courts already for accountability and for justice but for now there appears to be no accountability and no justice general strike is planned for sunday the

opposition wants change they don't want to rule an era of oppression hangs over the streets of khartoum that's how it's been described to us there is a sense of unease and fear but there is also resilience and little certainty about how things are going to move forward stephanie decker al-jazeera. let's take a look now at why many see the prime minister as someone who actually could ease the crisis became africa's youngest head of state when he took office in april of last year just a few short months he has implemented rapid reforms including lifting a state of emergency and ordering the release of thousands of political prisoners were also allowed dissidents to return home and unblocked hundreds of websites and t.v. channels his biggest achievement so far was ending the state of war with eritrea by agreeing to give up to spirited territory on the border now another no damaske

internationals called for the immediate withdrawal of the rapid support forces from sudan's streets the secretary general. of what we have witnessed in the past 3 days is quote horrific and barbaric but we've got to be either with us now who is a sudan researcher at the stands a national joining us from nairobi nice to have you with us. asking for whole recommending that the rapid support forces be removed as one thing do you have any hope that they actually will. sank you for having me let me express my sadness and sorrow for it's happening in sudan since 7th of june of course we called for or forced to be was drawn from hardball and all across to that especially you know as a woman's are acting like a police force and not trained to do it so what we call for that is government to

to withdraw its forces. and lead. in front of some agency to do their work. but again holding out any hope for that sort of thing i mean you make an international call like best do you actually speak directly to those in power and say this isn't good enough this has to stop. i mean it's not just amnesty international is seeing other hear what are going to as asian even the u.n. as you if you go back to what's happening in there for since 2003 and it was on for the famous u.n. security council resolution 356 call for the disarmament of the ganja weed forces wishes. most bulk of the current record support for 6 actually constituted from what i've read from they don't do it forces that operated out of foreign committees

or this one right by division so it's been a lone call by everyone the critic of this international but the goal of sudan as a form of governance with ignore these goals and they try to make them to be part of the sudan armed forces since 2030 and now we see as a result of that because they are not really. a fighting force but done not really trying to do a police. and law enforcement activities in urban setting just reading your statement or amnesty statement from a little bit earlier also calling for the immediate and blocking of the internet and social media so that people well can have free speech and can communicate i mean is it the case that there is absolutely no access for people there was it been limited to some degree. where there is some limited access to feel people who have some kind of specific

type of connections in sudan but in general most of the sudanese population in khartoum on ourselves are they have no access to the internet. so the video is this is obviously for border reasons that the government of sudan was a military gasses they know they want to hide. their crime that the committee since similar journalists are committing people now as it is today it's across the capital city they beat up people. here in the us report we receive. daily basis about what's happening in sudan atmosphere of fear atmosphere of sadness and i think this is not the way to govern any country and stuff it can you just stay there one moment i want to bring us some breaking news we are hearing that the sudan opposition says it has accepted the ethiopian prime minister as a mediator between the military rulers and the opposition under certain conditions

we're still waiting to hear what those are but what we're hearing is that the opposition is happy with the ethiopian prime minister as a mediator between the military rulers building on what we said earlier moustapha do you think the theory and prime minister is a good fit and can actually make a difference well i'm not sure about to our what kind of proposal but really sure because due to a statement issued by opposition forces many times are not going to engage in direct dialogue with the military council and maybe this is kind of a mediation proposed by the prime minister of syria and has accepted that but i'm not sure that we're going to engage in direct there are because 4 of them are saying politically impossible because of what's happening since of the june ahead and serbia has a sudan researcher at amnesty international thank you so. 2 of the news in the united states is impose new sanctions on iran's petro chemical industry targeting

the country's largest petrochemical group over its financial support for terror islamic revolutionary guard corps the elite military unit is in charge of iran's ballistic and nuclear missile programs you'll remember it was added to washington's list of terror organizations back in april also the u.s. congress is pushing back on donald trump's move to fast track the sale of american weapons to saddam a new york times report says the u.s. could give riyadh access to technology to produce its own versions of high tech bombs these precision guided bombs are the ones being used in the war in yemen. president trump declared a national security emergency last month bypassing congress to sell billions in arms to saudi arabia and to the u.a.e. more from our white house correspondent kimberly how could. as the details of this arms deal come out there is frustration and outrage on capitol hill by both

democrats as well as members of the president's own republican party there is concern about saudis having access to this american technology when it comes to these precision guided bombs there is fear that eventually the saudis could use this technology to produce their own weapons and there is concern as well that this could be used in the saudi led conflict in yemen now last month we know that the trumpet ministration took the rare step of using emergency powers to push this weapon sell through essentially a bathing congressional review something that otherwise is constitutionally mandated now the administration has sided the tensions with iran without supplying any sort of adequate intelligence that there is an escalated threat so members of congress not happy with what they see as part of a larger package that will now add to the stockpiles of tens of thousands of weapons already available to saudi arabia from

a standpoint of congress not only is there discomfort over this being potentially falling into the wrong hands but also the coziness of the trumpet ministration with saudi arabia particularly given the fact that the cia has concluded that saudi arabia was responsible the highest levels of the saudi government specifically the crown prince of ordering the murder of jamal hush oshie the washington post journalist and they believe for this reason as well as other human rights violation that this is not a government that the united states should be supporting. the united nations is at least 4000000 people have left venezuela because of its worsening economic and political crises all but 7 100000 of them left since the end of 2015 the un describing the figure as alarming and says urgent help is still needed to host them in other countries particularly in latin america more from latin america editor alysia newman in santiago.
