that tension right now and that's been a recurring theme that the mexican government's been cracking down on them but other people seem to be unaware there was a front door and family of a mother and their 3 young children. being detained at this very checkpoint just an hour or so ago and i asked the father why they come from honduras and he said there's martyrs that's a particular gang in honduras that's in our neighborhood playing politics got anything so what are you going to do now as they were put in that truck and he basically didn't have any idea what was next he was in shock and that really brings across i think the human cost of it is high political events and negotiations going in on in washington but there are a lot of people from honduras el salvador and guatemala that feel they don't have a lot of choice but to leave their homeland and try to head north and clearly john there's a bit of a disconnect here because for the trumpet ministration their basic line seems to be look trade tariffs are a win win but everyone else is saying trade tariffs for everyone that's

a lose lose situation so what's the cost to the mexican economy to mexican workers if the 1st tranche of tariffs comes into effect on june the tense. i think that's exactly right what you're saying we had a letter signed by 6 c. a 7 story ambassadors from the united states to mexico saying exactly that this is a lose lose for both countries but when you look at the actual exports 80 percent of mexican exports go to the united states only about 15 percent of u.s. exports go in return to mexico he says a clear they even go lie a relationship here which is why it's mexico that's doing everything that it can to try and police the united states to try to those tariffs being leveled at its goods and that's going to happen on monday unless there's movement on this john thanks very much. well last year u.s. border guards apprehended hundreds of thousands of central american migrants trying

doesn't rain and we don't plant because the seeds won't grow average daytime temperatures in guatemala have risen over the past decade while crop damaging frosts are more common and when it does rain it often pours for days washing the topsoil away. aready has the highest rate of child malnutrition in the western hemisphere and in the western highlands indigenous subsistence farmers make up half the population when crops here fail people leave who wants to follow his uncles to the united states the 18 year old says that there is no future for young people in his village the only people he sees getting ahead have left to work abroad and send money back. i didn't. i want to make something out of my life to be able to follow my dreams i want to get a good education find a job and help my family here it's a struggle to save it. when a tiny bit of money as a mall is dry cord or continues to expand more farming families are set to struggle

is raising the stakes in a standoff with turkey over and chris plans to purchase russian air defenses the 2 nato alliance of spots for months now but the turkish order of russian s. $400.00 defense system washington will reportedly give ankara until the end of july to backtrack on the deal now if not the u.s. will start taking steps to remove turkey from the f. $35.00 fighter jet program live now to washington and my colleague rob ryan also reports the source of this dispute between the u.s. and turkey over this weapons system. well peter the u.s. officials say they have been making it clear to their turkish counterparts for many months now that they cannot countenance a situation where turkey has a russian anti-aircraft system that is designed to shoot down the u.s. made fighter jets that turkey also wants to buy so turkey put it in order

for 100 f. 35 from the u.s. that's a very advanced fighter jet they also want to as you mentioned purchased from. go the the anti-aircraft system the s 400 but neither of those can the those 2 cannot exist together according to the defense department and things did come to a head today with the acting defense secretary in the us patrick shanahan sending this letter which we obtained a copy to his turkish counterpart saying quite bluntly while we seek to maintain our valued relationship turkey will not receive the f. $35.00 it turkey takes delivery of the s $400.00 the us would like to offer turkey instead the patriot missile and aircraft defense system which is made in the us by the raytheon corporation and it says that if turkey does go ahead with

the purchase of the russian system the s $400.00 that would make turkey more strategically dependent upon moscow and unable to why and deepen its cooperation with its other nato allies including the united states so the deadline is the 31st of july and at that point turkey will be cut off from buying any further jets it already has taken delivery of 4 of them and there are several turkish pilots and other personnel in the united states training on the f. 35 but if no agreement is reached they will be leaving the country on the 31st of july is this the only issue in the relationship between the united states and some key. far from it peter i think it's fair to say that the u.s. turkish relationship is not going that swimmingly at all last year u.s.

president trump declared a national security emergency last month bypassing congress to sell billions in arms to saudi arabia and the u.a.e. white house correspondent kimberly hellcat has the reaction from congress. 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 the this is not a government that the united states should be supporting. the u.n. says at least 4000000 people have left venezuela because of its worsening economic

talk now to pull dobson pulls a journalist with venezuela analysis dot com he joins us on skype pulled up smoking back to the news are 4000000 that's an absolutely astonishing number how did we get to this well of the quality of life in venezuela and the conditions here in the st peter have been increasingly deteriorating over the last few years obviously causing a number of venezuelans to look for employment elsewhere in neighboring countries the increasing disparity between incomes and prices here in venezuela has meant that many have been a unable to access through their and other goods we can of the effect in very severely their quality of life now i think we need to take these figures with a certain grain of thought. in the past we have noticed how to get around benefit

walen migration have not included for example the in number of entertainers about to return to venezuela having spent some time abroad with kids significant and also to not take into account the cross border migrate to the population and we can speculate colombia is also a very significant nonetheless the bigger lead in venezuela continue to increase and this has to be looked into the headlines are generally always devoted to the idea of food shortages shops and supermarkets running out of food stuffs to sell to people is it that simple. i think definitely not it's very important to look at the edges of shortages with some sort of clarity peter 456 years ago we could definitely talk about significant a few shortages of minutes later but today that situation and our testify there's hair on the ground is not the not so hearing about it's way like currently you can find over 90 percent of the average food stuff you look for easily in every shop in

every street corner the problem here in venezuela in the food industry is not a problem shortages anymore is a problem of the prices and the wages of us in the difference being here with the health sector the health sector minutes while it is still suffering from significant shortage yet but especially in high level medicine low level medicine is very readily available easy to find expensive but there are very few show to get in low level medicine so i think we have to be clear here when we're talking about what sort of show to give and exactly what industries we're looking at and is it your sense paul that mr moore will stay where he is in the job not because he's good at it not because he's ready to to respect it but because there's nothing there's no one coming through the system who could come up with being a viable opposition well that's certainly one fact that i think more importantly pete that we see in since january with the currently favor failure of the

opposition to succeed in there and that could at times we've seen a return to constitutionality of minutes wait and see that reassertion of the constitutional order then as well as constitution gave a president or a mandate until 2025 and to what extent he is compared to the why and why though has failed in any sort of attempt to oust him so i think we have to look at things in this other context and at the moment it seems our present mother will successfully complete his constitutional term full dobson thank you. still to come here in the news for you after more than 180 years since finally gets an official mosque in the middle of a naval base. army welling's it harvest the biggest women's sports event of our resound or why the women's world cup and the hostile sort of started well.

public safety net address this update from monrovia. well it looks like the whole new moan between the liberian people and their president is over across the country thousands of people took to the streets to demand action from a government they said has ignored them for quite some time by the way liberia's president george weah has only been in office for 18 months out of the 6 years it's supposed to be in that office and a lot of problems are creeping up rising inflation high unemployment rates the devaluation of the currency and according to protest is rampant corruption in his government they accuse the government of siphoning millions of dollars from state coffers that are still and accounted for and they're also talking about $25000000.00 u.s. dollars that went missing from government coffers and billions of liberia and dollars that also are not and are not accounted for the liberian government said
