people who think like mr micawber should think 2 or 3 times before wanting to get out of a complicated situation like he finds himself with an enormous rejection rate in his country and wanting to damages. after meeting in brasilia with amazon state governors ball scenario even suggested there should be more developments in the amazon region hours later a congressional committee approved in the memo to allow commercial agriculture on indigenous reservations something that is currently prohibited. we're winning this war with the support of you all to show what the amazon region is to show its potential in the benefits it can bring to all including our brothers dean d. and also has the support of the u.s. president with whom he has a close relationship and the shared love of tweeting. reaction in brazil to their president's handling of the crisis has been mixed and game. no one can live completely alone no one grows alone any help is always welcome as long as it's well

intended. cannot be linked to any kind of submission to foreign countries brazil must have autonomy over the amazon we cannot accept this internationalization of the amazon. any further development of the amazon will be met with strong opposition from around the world however it's the indigenous communities who live in the forest those with the most to lose who will react the strongest but for the people who live here in the amazon region this is normal natural they burn and they will burn again next year because they believe with the backing of their political leaders that this is the best way to develop this land. also nora believes this is brazil's land to develop and resents foreign interference but you international community feels it can't simply watch as the so-called lungs of the burn damage when al-jazeera put the veil northwest of brazil well the agel day out of goal is

the director of the institutional strategy and intelligence at arco advice as a public affairs firm and he explains why bowles backtracked on accepting that international aid. what changed his mind is that his position to reject some of these offer wasn't coordinated with other members of the brazilian government and of the brazilian state. the speaker of the house he expressed this morning that this is money that brazil needs because a few days ago president bush so not all said that there isn't enough money to more knitter and combat these fires at the amazon so although brazil is a very wealthy country the location of money is a very bureaucratic procedure and in this particular area there wasn't enough money so we had several. on coordinated responses about this help from france and from the g 7 which at the end of the day allowed present arsenal to make this is

a commentary that didn't resonate well with other peers in the brazilian government i think that this is rhetoric towards the internal brazilian. public because it's all of us that do the usage of this money would be determined by the brazilian authorities it would be impossible for any of this help to come and for the g 7 to determine how to employ this money during the past decades and many years we had the amazonian fund which was funded by norway and germany and not in a single moment germany and norway decided how this money would be used it was always 100 percent a decision of the brazilian government on how to use so this comment is more towards the brazilian public there wants to see this demonstration of independence in the usage of money than anything else. the presidents of turkey and russia say

raise the closure it up to let a terrorist continue to show russian positions and syrian forces they try to attack russian bases we hope that the deescalation zone will be a refuge for the rebels and should not be a platform to make attacks we discuss joint measures to neutralize terrorist hotbeds an adlib and to normalize the situation in this region and in syria as a whole further one angered by an attack on a turkish convoy in northern syria earlier this month and the surrounding of one of turkey's observation post that the behavior of syrian forces is unacceptable. their fallen soldier look the provocation is by the regime have reached an acceptable level i would like to say it is especially by our borders our right to self-defense and this leaves us no choice we have to act to protect ourselves russian and turkey have been fighting on opposite sides of the war in syria but the relationship has grown closer in recent years. increasing economic and military types during

from antakya. rigid time bird one's dash to moscow was partly because of the challenge that the turkish military now finds itself with it has a dozen observation posts in what are supposed to be deescalation zones in northwestern syria one of those is now marooned in what is now syrian regime controlled territory because it was taken back in fighting last week and the syrian regime is pushing against other areas in this deescalation zone and these observation posts risk falling back into territory under syrian control raja type heard one wants to make sure that those turkish soldiers are not threatened by a longer term challenge that the turkish president is how much longer he needs to keep the ones to keep the soldiers in those observation posts when what was a deescalation zone is now territory under syrian control similar at the same time syrian kurdish forces that they have pulled back from the turkish border up to 17 kilometers they're pulling heavy weapons and troops but only from the countryside

not from the towns in the cities it's nothing close to what the turks were asking for they wanted them at least 30 kilometers away from the border but this is a u.s. brokered arrangement and it's something that for now turkey is going to have to live with. the main trial of former malaysian prime minister najib razak is beginning in kuala lumpur now that this facing $25.00 charges of money laundering an abuse of power in this case his 2nd of $5.00 corruption trials that gypsy accused of using his position to siphon within $500000000.00 from the state investment fund the one empty he denies the charges and says they are politically motivated well james chin is the director of the asia institute at the university of tasmania and he says the trial is expected to be a long and drawn out affair with no verdict until at least next year. i think the pressures on a recent survey of malaysians in the urban area shows that many people are very

unhappy 90 was actually not in jail their very unhappy day really none of the people in charge of corruption of the old reach him none of they have been put in jail and people are waiting to see whether this government can deliver the promises they made in the last election which is the mission and not and people around him will go to jail over this mess of corruption but from the government's side i think the calculation is slightly different they know that have basically 4 more years to make sure that he's found guilty the strategy is basically to charge him with as many corruption charges as possible right now he's been charged we've talked about $42.00 charges and the idea is that if he's found guilty in one of the charges you lose his status as a member of parliament and this will mean that he will no longer be a political threat in the next general election. still ahead here on als is iraq struggling to cope 100 pages being born every day health workers need for help in

continue to live in a camp where there are little services in the army we don't want i had already things but for the government to give us a plot of land to stay on to give us lands to compensate for the ones we have lost in the floods the disaster management committee in would say there are also other concerns. that you don't even and then there's at least $1200.00 families but not enough tents there are no lights or electricity we need the authorities to respond with more tents and there's an issue of access to clean water we also need more security. just last week residents of wood really had been helping people in neighboring areas who were the 1st to be affected by the floods now they need assistance as they try to salvage the little they have left if they're not relocate it will be forced to wait for the floodwaters to recreate so they can go back home to what was once home he will morgan al-jazeera would probably not assume flash floods of killed at least 3 people in mauritania rains hit the southern part of the

a lot of leverage over the situation because of our military aid to both saudi arabia and the u.a.e. zwar in yemen we provide logistical support intelligence we provide spare parts transfers and weapons sales so i think they are going to be forced to listen if we are willing to remove that support for the coalition right now congress is in dialogue they've taken several votes to condemn this military campaign there right now in joint conference dialogues between the house and senate to decide on the national offense budget and in that budget there are many myths that would end bomb sales and logistical support so i think with these pending decisions made on the defense budget there is some pressure to move this forward this is a very difficult complex situation i think the for the who sees to be satisfied and

probably i can imagine that they want they want to see an end to the blockade and to the aerial strikes on their territory i think saudi arabia you know it's unclear at the moment what would appease them but hopefully they can come to a cease fire in a power sharing arrangement in yemen which i think is the only way forward philippine president raji go did start say well wrong say in beijing nato and wait and stay ahead of talks with chinese be there she can ping and it could be a tense me take this far as he has said he's planning to raise their rival claims to territory in the south china sea haifa has more from beijing. in the days leading up to philippine president rodriguez do tear taze 5th visit to china he took a firm stance on what will be discussed saying that he canceled the trip if he could not talk about the 2 $1016.00 world court to try butyl ruling over china's territorial claims in the south china sea it sided with the philippines china

something else despite this now is the time to draw china closer philippines has to take advantage of the situation you should capitalize on opportunities the opportunity now is there is a trade war going on between foreign and the us with tariffs continuously rising. time to move around so while president hu territory may say he's standing up for the philippine people and their interests he will ultimately be judged on what he can actually get from china in terms of territorial agreements and promised investment dollars scotland al-jazeera beijing. muslim clerics ensure longer advising women to avoid wearing face veils even though government face coverings ended last week and in calling that prevents a person from being identified was banned under emergency rules belts and after the easter bomb attacks in april religiously distilled al-jazeera women should make their own decision health workers in the world's largest refugee camp say they are
