the color go out of the face of the foreign secretary of mexico as i very i smiled big and i said welcome to washington and i said i don't want to interrupt what you all are doing i said give me a call next time you're coming to town tillerson says he was taken aback when he was told cushion or and presidential adviser steve bannon knew of the blockade of qatar before it happened question on or about may 20th 2017 there was apparently a private dinner that was hosted between steve bannon jared cushion or in the rulers of saudi arabia and u.a.e. respectively were you aware of that dinner answer no question that wasn't something you would heard previously answer no question and to clarify sir not prior to when i just said it answer correct question what's your reaction to a meeting of that sort having taken place without your knowledge and sir it makes me angry here in washington the revelation of dueling foreign policy is want to seen as a diplomatic debacle foreign policy run as

a family business with the agency in charge of diplomacy often sidelined it since this suggests that it's totally chaotic why for example would you appoint a secretary of state because that's a trouble point not a holdover from obama where you hear so distrustful of your own appointee that you shield him out of the decisions trump until is in had a tempestuous relationship tillerson reportedly called trump a moron by all accounts trump has a much closer relationship with taylor's ins replacement former cia director mike pompei oh trump tweeted that pump a it was doing a great job while tillerson was dumb as a rock and lazy as hell john hendren al-jazeera washington. as executive director of the arab center of washington and he says the u.s. president as letting his private advise us hijacked the state department's responsibilities. these are very significant evolutions.

essentially revealing how dysfunctional this administration has been since its beginning when you have a secretary of state and a secretary of defense kept in the dark when it comes to major decisions pertaining to their turf if you will to their essential job that shows you. the the process has been hijacked from the state department from the defense department into basically that private advice section of the white house floor for the secretary of state to learn way after the fact of these major trips major decisions being made on behalf of the united states yet the person who is supposed to be in charge of people and forcing and implementing u.s. foreign policy doesn't know that he can offer all of these meetings is a very serious violation i think of 1st of all in terms of security issues

and in terms of the procedure that is usually conventional wisdom and terms of how policy is conducted in washington. hundreds of iraqis have stormed the bahraini embassy in central baghdad in anger over the u.s. sponsored manami conference on peace in the middle east bahrain has recalled its ambassador to iraq after demonstrators broken and took down the flag replacing it with one of their own police used live rounds to break the hour long standoff but no one was injured a 50000000000 dollar economic plan was unveiled by white house adviser general and behind this week as part of a larger middle east peace plan the trumpet ministration has been working on. the 2nd of 2 debates for democratic presidential candidates has come to a close in miami and so frontrunner and formalize president joe biden face off

against the likes of bernie sanders and coming to harris and gallagher reports from miami. outside the debate hall crowds gathered to back their candidate of choice. many support the 2 best known former vice president joe biden and vermont senator bernie sanders but everyone here wants change 1st of all we have our man the man stands for make america think hard right now but i think. getting better 1st grade . because by doing what you night. when you get there and that he's going to make it better and then from i will release children from cages on a stage candidates keen to make the voices heard made this the robust debate many expected at times it was hard to hear what was being said from an area where we don't know a lot but senator kemal harris who with an emotional attack on the former vice

president on the issue of race it was hurtful. to hear you talk about the reputations of 2 united states senators who built their reputations and career on the segregation of race in this country and it was not only that but you also worked with them to oppose bussing and we got neither bernie sanders nor joe biden attacked one another perhaps a wise move for 2 of the leading candidates when he came to president trump though the vermont senator didn't hold back while president trump you're not stay lit up for working families when you're trying to throw 32000000 people or their health care that they have and that 83 percent of your tax benefits go to the top one percent that's how we'll be when you're supposed to look for it that you. would smile for joe biden this may be seen as a bruising debate but as one of the most experienced politicians on stage he managed to hold his own lashley we got to unite the united states of america as

much as anybody says we can if we do there's not a single thing the american people can do this is the united states of america we can do anything if we're together both debates are over and all 20 candidates have had their moment in the spotlight but with such a crowded field it's been a hectic couple of days ultimately voters across the country will decide who the winners and losers were but with almost 18 months to go before the general election anything could and probably will happen and gallacher al-jazeera miami florida well let's get more on this knowledge on by peter mathews professor of political science at 5 1st college and he's joining us live from los angeles mr matthews always good to have you with us on al jazeera the so there has been a lot of talk about that exchange between comma harris and joe biden where she was very critical of his civil rights record what were the moments that stood out for you in this debate. well that was definitely the top moment because come on harris

was the 1st one to actually take on joe biden who's very well you know liked by a lot of voters are going to go to the vice president or president obama but she were right to his comments earlier that he will be able to work with anyone including the segregationist that he worked with james eastland senator from mississippi and that was a very good example for him to get about working with people he was actually a segregationist white supremacist senator and yet by news that in and harris jumped on it today and said president vice president right and you actually also don't just work with him where you work hard but i think the issue that really affects meet her personally she was a young girl in school and to the 2nd class to be integrated in a busing action to bring african-american children to white schools and by not oppose that policy of the federal level she went right after him on that he was quite defensive and he kind of thought it all been severed could really rather fully an insult he really did look unprepared for that he has been the frontrunner in the race so it is very early days another 18 months to go but do you think that

has performance tonight along with not just criticism in the last few weeks of the his comments about working with having a good relationship with segregationist politicians but the other sort of gaffes that he has been in the media for while they affect his frontrunner status. well there's no doubt it's going to have some effect but how much is interesting it depends on other people around the end of things i do bernie sanders it's number 2 in the ratings and then libby who are number 3 would not look like a moderate has taken the positive step toward what you did today in shorts and leadership but the key question bernie i think this out i did not ask joe biden who his corporate sponsors are because bible belt ultra long time it took a lot of money from banks and credit card companies and corporations and by and. bernie sanders main forte is that he's against corporate money for the common people he doesn't accept the money all these years he could have done that with but

he held back a bit you know about a lot and as a reporter mentioned he seemed to focus but he said it's does seem to focus his attacks more on the current president donald trump than on joe biden so we've had the 1st 2 debates in this very crowded field of 20 candidates who would you say looking the strongest so far after these debates i think was a bit more of that quite well yesterday she was on the stage today which is very well yesterday and she's one of the most electable candidates with solid proposal detail ones now and he's got a lot more support recently so i think it's sort of mind biden sanders errors and. senator warren so we have to have a cheek side of these 2 debates and it will take a few days to see how things go. if if you date at least i'm sure mr matthew lee is very much looking at tom we appreciated that speech to matthews live in los angeles thank you my pleasure thank you. now democratic leaders in the u.s.

house of representatives have backed down to president trump on their border aid bill demands the u.s. has passed a 4600000000 dollars package to help address the surge and people trying to cross into the u.s. from mexico but that doesn't include additional protections for migrant children that many democrats have wanted for the bill which has already passed the republican controlled senate now needs to be signed into law by the president. while mexico is currently giving refuge to more than 14000 asylum seekers and under a new agreement with the u.s. could be about to take 60000 more there are serious questions though about whether it can handle them john heilemann has been meeting migrants on the streets of tehran. myra and her 12 year old son waiting limits compatable the next day in the u.s. that's 6 months away it's part of a plan learners remain in mexico those mainly from home. who've

crossed into the u.s. to ask for asylum are being sent back to mexico to wait while the process plays out . and i don't know what i'm going to do i'm scared of being left in the street with my son mexico agreed to the plan reluctantly in january now under u.s. pressure it's expanding it about $60000.00 central americans could be sent here by the end of the year luckily for them mexico's president says they'll be taken care of. this year will be offering humanitarian aid job opportunities health and education. except we wanna with 5000 have already arrived none of that is happening everyone we talked to like miter were only given temporary papers which explicitly state they can't work it despite the fact that the many their next court appearance is months away we talked to 7 migration shelters. they told us they'd seen nothing of the government's promised work or education programs

meanwhile they're bearing the brunt of the new arrivals i think it's the perfect storm coming together in which everything is going to hit it. one moment down the line they wonder they have no shelter all the private organizations charitable organizations churches they have not met with us they stopped for meetings since the last 2 or 3 months so we don't know what they're planets. we don't know either with the wave of people already crushing in there is government ministries what they plan to do with them no one could tell us or even give us an interview the issues particularly pressing because these people are being dropped into some of the most dangerous areas in mexico here in one of there's been more than a 1000 murders so far this year and where we are right now we just heard shots people fleeing and then federal police turning up. it's not a big surprise that many like myra

a trying to get the money together to simply get out and go home that's certainly the most convenient course of action but to mexico and the u.s. john heilemann how does it not. the acting u.s. defense secretary has told me that his country doesn't want a war with iran and mark. taking up the post he added he wants to move from a military track to a diplomatic one just last week the president said he called off strikes on iran at the last minute. back to back suicide bombings into his u.s. capital have killed a police officer and wounded several other people the government is trying to reassure tourists as travel agencies canceled tolls but choice gate and the polls. in the center of tunis close to the french embassy police responded to a suicide bomb attack that killed a police officer and wounded several other people shortly after another explosion

this time at the counterterrorism police headquarters both areas were busy with local people and tourists but witnesses say the visit his don't appear to have been the target the guy who blew himself did it 50 betters away from the french embassy and the security around the area is very very high actually for the body double like people where they do with their business having peace outside of the war but expected actually thought struck him for what earlier in the day gunmen attacked a t.v. station in the state of gaffs south of the capital. a state of emergency has been imposed in tunisia for the past 4 years since dozens of people were killed in a series of attacks which i saw claimed responsibility for 3 gunmen stormed a museum in the capital tunis killing 22 people in march 2053 months later 38 people were killed in an attack on a beach resort hotel at seuss and last october

there and there was a lot of smoke so we came here next to see where the fire was going and if our ranch was going to burn. away from the flames the heat is more nuisance than danger in madrid a little cooler 39 celsius people try to stay hydrated stay protected just took it easy for some tourists for more northerly climbs that's what they came for. lots of water it's very harsh it's very hard. trying to time. for vulnerable people the heat can still be dangerous in france the health ministry has issued a heat wave plan for elderly care homes they don't want a repeat of 2003 as hot weather when 15000 mostly old people died. is we do you hear me do you see form i put

a small which cloth around my neck and there isn't much more i can do so i don't mean around but it's our way we don't move too much we just have to wait for it to be over there is no other solution. but forecasters suggest it won't get cooler till early next week we'll reach islands which is there. now finally this bulletin a previously unknown dinosaur species has been discovered in brazil named vess the sorest pair and they sis at fossils where on earth in the countries in north west it's thought to have inhabited this part of brazil about 90000000 years ago when it was desolate paleontologists say the conover a species was about one and a half meters long. and again alan has a problem in doha with the headlines on al-jazeera u.s.

counter-terrorism headquarters. well those are the headlines on al-jazeera is coming up next. 10000 pieces of literature rescued from being. sorry. it's the women and men who risked everything to save their rights and heritage. 3 quarters of all the land on earth are now significantly affected by human

activity the few remaining pockets of wilderness left are themselves at risk of becoming ecological this that i've been called to industry urbanization climate change and hunting all these they see made it go systems and destroy biodiversity. 60 percent of the world sunny most populated have been wiped out since the 1970 s. scientists claim that the planet is witnessing a mass extinction. in response a worldwide movement is now underway to rewire the countryside to restore land to native one in the city at the tip of south america succeeding all expectations. i have come to but i wanted to meet kristen king and her face was dedicated the best 2 that gets to the protection of this area the conservation projects she started with her husband doug has become a true inspiration to those who believe the wilderness can heal itself given half

a chance. but i go nia piece of vast region of mountains and forests spawning seldom cheap energy and dina. though famous for its a stunning landscapes for center you see it has been an important region for livestock farming many of its grasslands have been graced bare. at the region's hot lights patagonia national park. and here to find out how this became one of the biggest conservation projects in history. and you know full well i think here him am i'm chris how can one of your little deal and. former c.e.o. of elder company but they go in your priest marry doug tomkins an interpreter and

i've been through who had founded rival brand the north face. both fronts made them by your mentor protections central to their company ethos but chris and doug wanted to do more from the early ninety's bought over $300000000.00 u.s. dollars of land for preservation across chile and argentina they build parks complete with largest campgrounds and trails to support a go to recent after dark side and they're in 10 to 15 carried the mantle as president of their foundation tomkins conservation what was it you saw here that may you take of this if you know change you know the next 20 years. i didn't see it frankly that that's the one side. he saw a landscape that was beat up and a fence line to take down and that convinced me this was the conservation chance of a lifetime. in 2004 in the. crease and dog bought this sheep

ranch of almost 200000 acres of overgrazed grassland they said about returning it to me to along with the harmful of smaller farms using a process called rewilding rewilding is the restoration of an entire ecosystem to its natural state by removing foreign species reintroducing and protecting native ones it begins with the removal of livestock the biggest patient to flourish this encourages insects and overly learned most attracting birds and other small predators removing fences allows the return of therapy forces which are preyed on by a picks predators those at the top of the food chain which then also multiply. species in critically low numbers totally absent a rehabilitated ultimately free and predator populations regulate one another and the ecosystem evolves into a by a long term self-sustaining wilderness. when we bought this property there were

probably 500 miles of fence line. that needed to come down and when you take the fences down you see wildlife coming back and because for 80 years it's been excluded from the best grasses prices are to keep wildlife. out of the best grasses and keep your lifestyle and the best. so it's very exciting to see the grasslands and the forests begin to restore our selves and that's the joy of taking fences down. 100 benefiting from these grasses that when i call those relatives of the llama and a keystone species that is one that plays a crucial role in the functioning of the ecosystem not often you see one by itself

they're pretty emblematic of the paragon ian step if they're plentiful and they're calm like this one is then you know that the system is coming back and that they feel no threads course and that's where. i want to see what rewilding looks like up close. i mean you. kristen so still the parts they rector of conservation has agreed to show me. has been a guiding hand on the rewinding process since the parts beginning so no one knows the flora and fauna you're better than him. on route and we bump into a few of the locals and. meow but . in some way. part of the course of this park. the pygmy old priests and small birds rodents and in 6 to thriving healthy

grassland. takes me 2 years of the park where it borders on a working ranch difference in the grass on either side he says striking. here is a good example of what happened in one place where you remove the livestock and one place where landowners decide to put more livestock then their land is able to support in terms of food. so the consequence is that you last division and you see the composition of the plant seeds different so if you have livestock permanently eating the grass they don't have the chance to release the feed and their recovery very slow there is some consequence like erosion that is very hard to. take over destined to be really record.

of the park at least and the team have established a breeding center for. us to reach the darwin. baited and brought here to a climatized before being released. really. strongly associated with. going in a big grassland so i grassland without a real complete. main proposal of. the captive population is providing in the. population the main issue here. relation was so. less than 20 bird. population of rio mated by hunting and the destruction of their hobby does but is now slowly growing and successfully dispersing here from a very year that have been released then you'll see that there is a line of fans right now we are removing it and that we prove they cannot be

barriers that have been released to be me with their wild greer we are now in the 3rd generation and we are planning to keep this program running in the next 35 years when we are made that we can read up with relation of about 100 birthing there while. the tiny the growing real population will in turn help sustain their only natural predator and the species and most excited to see they lose the king of part of the. and come to meet their herd there and hunter. in the area used to keel over tend. to protect their communities flocks there. are millions of what we had never. done a. fair

go. no i. see you know words are so wide like word and and it's the parks risk too much trucking expert if anyone can find it seemed. like it but out of it having. a medal i think i understand. you are having only have a hard time going to where you're. not and i want you here give us one for my i mean i me and i said. well you know what i'm more real but i don't have any. woman. i perform here for you.

to see that only this man hath of the land i can see there that he can distinguish upon my track anywhere here who most prefer to hunt at night and our chances of seeing one are very slim so we doing the next best thing sitting a camera on the team used to monitor their activity. when i wanted one of the men like and it was clear that. they come over here. both year in jail. with various terms and. this and she drove into most curious that another cat has been here. we're going to leave this camera trip for a few days and see whether we get lucky. it may be

hard to actually see a pool but for crease their return credit reports and predators have been systematically persecuted for decades and decades so their numbers get precariously love every ecosystem has what's called their apex species here in patagonia its promise and if you take out the very top predator everything cascades down from that and comes out of order even though it's early here in the park in terms of rebalancing we can see some big changes where there are water systems and grasslands are definitely coming back the number of bullets in the park and the numbers of what not goes in the.
