well and yet there's tell protesting what is a strategy and what is there and game. this is the thing foley it's really hard to figure out exactly how they're playing this out because there is no leader to those protests what 7 we saw today was momentous probably the largest number of protesters in recent weeks marching peacefully calling on the u.s. to be part of hong kong's push for greater freedom sent to preserve its autonomy now that's been really replaced once again by these radical protesters who are destroying public property who are very willing to face off with white police calling on the government for accountability the focus of the protests has moved dramatically in the past 3 months it started off with that extradition bill with people protesting against that bill that would allow hong kong suspects to be tried in mainland china since then their demands have grown and grown and to hong kong being able to choose it's not only choose its own leader but also now look into the

actions of the police during the protests over the past 3 months not only these protesters for the wider hong kong public accuse hong kong's police of using excessive force on the protesters and also on people who were on the vicinity of the protests thank you very much for that to get upon live for us in on kong and of course we'll be coming back to you throughout the day today to get an update on those protests there in hong kong this sunday and still ahead on al-jazeera aid workers warm conditions are quickly deteriorating for hurricane survivors in the bahamas even as imagined to surprise a rush to pass u.s. and turkey shows begin joint patrols in northeastern syria as they prepare to set up a so-called safe zone in the region. color we are still probably in the dry season in indonesia

a gritty in malaysia i have said to people reporting preparation for messing around really on the satellite sort of confirm. that we might see the increase in showers in northern sumatra something thailand in stimulate but otherwise i think probably nothing very much this is the forecast here in tucson you get showers developing in borneo but nothing to sayas java bone dry once again soon away c 2 which makes a change however there is very active weather and some welcome rain in australia look at the townsmen sea frontal system has been quite active the last day or so will stay right where they're active in dropping temperature so the forecast is only 10 or 11 hobart melbourne and only 6 in sydney the wind is quite strong which is of no use a total of fires still burning in new south wales on the border with queensland and this to be ours is not particularly nice spring like weather in sydney only marginally improves come tuesday that you get west wind out of the tyria perth is

above 20 cooling down by this time but still above 20 has a new zealand well give most happening the tasman sea is hardly surprised to see you have a proper circulation headed towards the north island wet and windy. rewind returns with a new series and brand new updates on the best account using documentaries to get. the. rewind continues with saving sou'wester seeing the mind 10 years later the launch of a rich person. in south africa is a little bit this is a great motivator for us to keep giving back to these communities on al-jazeera.

a recap of our top stories on al-jazeera person donald trump says he has called off secret meetings involving the taliban and afghan government that were to be held in the u.s. on sunday he says it's because of a taliban suicide bombing in kabul which killed an american soldier and 11 other people on face tape another british government minister has quit in protest over prime minister boys johnson's breck's it strategy work and pensions secretary resigned from the government and the conservative whip and in hong kong thousands of protesters have marched to the u.s. consulate they want u.s. politicians to approve legislation allowing sanctions to be imposed on hong kong leaderless. now thousands of people are abandoning their destroyed homes in the bahamas following hurricane dory and the u.s.

coast guard is helping with rescue efforts moving people from the worst affected areas including the islands of grand bahama and abaco to the capital naso others have been taken to florida in the night. united nation to 70000 people need help and supplies aid is difficult to distribute because of destroyed here's one ways and roads at least 43 people died of that number is expected to rise as recovery crews reach devastated areas. reports from freeport. floodwaters have finally receded on the island of grand bahama. presidents of this part of the country this means coming to terms with the devastation left over from hurricane dorian. on the eastern end of the island more than 80 percent of homes were destroyed. this high school near free ports tourist district has been transformed into a shelter for the displaced many here have lost everything to the hurricane even

their loved ones so i lost my home as well and. he decided to stay back phone. from what i have say and heard everything completely gone well. you know as soon as you know. on going and i you know know any player there was but. about 80 people are staying at this shelter freeport remains without electricity and the heat is almost unbearable but there is food and water and doctors on site to provide medical attention to anyone who needs it by i really thank god for life right now and i thank god for the u.s. coast god sent you participated you guys and i you know bringing us food and clothes and water and stuff. the search operations continue for hundreds of people still missing but the destruction from the storm is so

widespread that even with the assistance of the united states coast guard and border patrol there are still places in the country that rescue teams have yet to reach one of the biggest challenges in delivering disaster relief to survivors of hurricane dorian has been limited access to the areas worst hit by the storm only up until a few days ago this airplane for example along with freeport airport were sitting under at least 2 meters of flood waters. it's been several days since the storm passed many of the people we've met seem to still be in shock but nonetheless grateful to be alive. when it was not below. freeport bahamas. u.s. and turkey has thought of patrolling a so-called buffer zone in northwest syria the calls cross to take the sport away into an area that used to be controlled by us spock's kurdish forces take he's boasting its military presence along its border with syria and is pushing displaced syrians to return home to model shire has more from have

a techie syria border. the start of joint patrols between the u.s. and turkish military is are being seen as a positive step this because both the americans on the charts were unable to see eye to eye as to how to operate within syria over the past year or even longer than turkey has always insisted that it needed to establish some sort of safe zone up until up to maybe 30 kilometers inside syria essentially to ensure that there was a safe space for displaced syrians but more importantly flying corps as it's have. often said was in order to ensure that it could target what they described as terrorist organizations namely groups like isis but also kurdish separatists who have used that area to launch attacks against turkey inside its own borders now these patrols are still extremely limited they're only in the 1st few

kilometers within the syrian side of the charkhi syria border as i mentioned turkey wants to go much deeper up through even the you afraid eastern side of the euphrates river inside syria the americans have resisted that's what's made things even more complicated is the fact that washington has it given tactical support and to according to some reports even military support to some of these kurdish groups that's turkey considers to be terrorist organizations and that was one of the points of contention but as of sunday the fact that these joint patrols have started comes off the. reputed threats by the president of tabor to run on the turkish government that if turkey is not allowed to establish the safe only to have no choice but to open the borders and allow for you for more syrian refugees to flee the bombardment that continues to target civilian areas inside syria. a

turkish newspaper has revealed how the suspects behind the murder of journalist jamal khashoggi conspired to kill him i showed you died inside the saudi consulate in istanbul last year the report is based on 15 suspects testimonies in saudi orse it says the group is claiming it was not given direction from saudi arabia's crown prince mohammed bin soundman the u.n. human rights office has questioned the kingdom's ability to conduct a fair trial seen him who has more from istanbul. for the 1st time we learned about the details of those 15 men's testimonies in saudi course those 15 men who came to istanbul to the cell the consulate building right behind me to kill cell to journalists. based on what this turkish daily newspaper revealed in their testimonies those 15 members at mit it's how they organized this crime actually they say that they were here to take back to saudi arabia but it was an initiative

by modern military to kill jamal for shifty and he admits that he gave the order at 1st he thought about varying him in the garden of the consulate residence building but then he decided to tell the team to chop the democracy of jews by the into pieces so that they could easily take him out of the building this is the 1st time that we are hearing about their testimonies because the saudi persecution system was a closed circuit system they shared no evidence nor details no statements by those suspects but what we know was that sold ok danny who is the number one man of the crown prince mohammad the man who is named to be the organizer of this crime was neither a witness nor a suspect in this trial he was never been to he has never been into court and we learned that 9 of the suspects are facing death sentence the rest are facing aggravated life sentence. russia's fry's environment put in as voted in

a contentious regional election in moscow opposition and independent candidates are banned from the ballot in the capital and that's provoked some of the launches come in protest seen 3 years hundreds of protesters were arrested many were beaten up by riot police and some were jailed said vast and has more from moscow. it's interesting to see that these elections which normally are considered an important have attracted so much attention and that comes all of course because it has led to a lot of protests a lot of protests that haven't been in russia for quite a lot of years it has created a new kind of protest movement but also a lot of young people students joining in and also the crackdown by the government of these protests has put this election on the international agenda i can see a lot of media from all over the world have come to actually cover it we just followed the opposition leader was not allowed to run herself and she was followed

by dozens of cameras showing that this vote for only 45 members of the most duma has significance for the rest of the country as well they have also now called instead of boycotting these elections because the opposition candidates are not allowed to run they have now called to still come to the polling stations and vote for anyone except for united russia the ruling party of president vladimir putin in a way to show that the opposition is strong stronger than the government has always sat the result will be that it will be more difficult for president clinton to continue our search his last term which is now happening right now so the question now of course is will this be successful this strategy because there are opposing voices the opposition is divided on this particular strategy which is called smart voting and we will see later what the outcome is going to be. t.v.

viewers in tunisia have watched a rare event in the arab world the 1st ever televised election debates only 8 of the $26.00 presidential candidates took part in the 1st of 3 debates the nations are due to vote next week for a successor to president bush he died in july to replace the longtime rulers in aberdeen ben ali who was the poles in the tunisian uprising 8 years ago. to nigeria now where after years of military action in the northwest the government is choosing dialogue to end killings and kidnappings mainly by doma nomadic cattle herders government leaders say they want to tackle the injustices that fueled the crisis in the 1st place. for the past 2 wins not a single shot was fired in what was termed nigeria's wild west. no one was kidnapped for ransom and no life struck or stolen me only chief

delay a bulwark around this constituents back from 18 months of self imposed exile. hunted down by bandits and vigilantes he and people in this village and now enjoying what they say are the best moments of their lives in 2 years a return to normalcy. we were on the run from law enforcement bandits and vigilantes for more than a year and a half as small as this village is it lost people in the raids many have been kidnapped including women and children a 1000 cattle and sheep was stolen from us 2 months ago they returned who are trying to rebuild their lives for 8 years bandits mainly from the mighty kurtzman terrorized inside entire villages in northwest nigeria. local vigilantes formed to protect communities became the law. the resulting violence killed more than 4000 people and displaced tens of thousands. the state government

says it's moving to address what the norm what's called decades of exploitation and oppression by providing water roads and other services it's also disbanding the militias that have been accused of killing for the knees and denying them access to basic services the process is holding for now a few months ago driving along this highway would have been extremely dangerous even for the security forces but now i do some number of vehicles use that all the killings and abductions used to happen here almost every day so for most people the relative peace they now enjoy seems and feel is almost unreal. and it's not only the displaced who are happy with the turn of events in some of. the police who have been targeted in the mayhem say they realize that the force of arms cannot end the violence all along. a military or security actions mr

bates as. well it does not accept official. the coveted to the grandest sign a film with an idea of how it will result in this issue that is used in dialogue. and that has started peeling off across several assault rifles and rocket launches separate surrounded by the gun and soon the police say and writable i expected. they say there never was a will to resolve the conflict and so for a state until recently let's call out a full court order to then we are not serious don't know much but they have another idea so i have to leave. quadrants of them straight there fairly and if somebody would go to all the lines. conflict resolution through dialogue. but there are concerns that the troops when told for life and with an amnesty were not involved

in other groups to take up arms against citizens and the state. for now a delay of the worker and the people in this village i enjoying this newly found peace despite their losses some of them can even afford to smile. al-jazeera. northwest nigeria. hello again i'm fully back to go with the headlines on al-jazeera president donald trump says it's called off secret meetings involving the taliban and afghan government that were to be held in the u.s. on sunday he says it's because of a taliban suicide bombing in kabul which killed an american soldier and 11 other people another british government minister has resigned in protest at the breakfast strategy of prime minister boys johnson ride was work and pensions secretary she

voted to stay in the european union during the breaks at referendum 3 years ago she told the b.b.c. she resigned because 80 to 90 percent of the government's planning is going into a no deal back set. i have not seen enough work going into actually trying to get a deal when earlier in the week i asked number 10 for a summary of what the plan was for actually getting a deal i was sent a one page summary so it's the combination of the fact that there's not enough work going into actually getting a deal which is i think is not what the prime minister signed up to try to do and secondly the expulsion of 21 of my colleagues who are more conservatives in hong kong thousands of protesters have marched to the u.s. consulate they want u.s. politicians to pass legislation allowing sanctions to be imposed on hong kong leaders sunday's march follows more violence between police and protesters on saturday as despite chief executive carry into months of pressure and abandoning the proposed law on extraditing suspects to china

headlines on al-jazeera rewind starts now. as it breaks the problem is that in many cases those fires get out of control with detailed coverage the protesters don't seem to be fighting and neither does the police's determination to suppress the bill. from around the world most of these vehicles carry syrian plates from the south of at the border the influx of course a huge traffic jam in the old overloaded city of atlanta.

hello and welcome again to rewind i'm elizabeth purana here on the wall and we're drawing on a decade of award winning documentaries and finding out how the story has moved on since today be revisiting a moving series which followed doctors working against the odds in the south african township of soweto and once home to nelson mandela so what who was at the forefront of the country's anti-apartheid struggle back in the 1970 s. hundreds died when student protests were put down with tear gas and live ammunition yet more than 25 years after the end of apartheid so what over maine's a dangerous and disadvantaged place at chris hani but i've been at hospital one of the largest in the world and known locally as bada maybe 70 percent of all admissions are emergencies many of them gunshot wounds about as ophthalmology department the st john i hospital treats around 50000 patients every year many of

them victims of domestic violence bullet wounds and car hijackings back into. 1009 al jazeera aired a series of films on the work of god as medical teams and today were chosen to focus on those eye doctors facing a severe workload with insufficient responses here a saving so what seeing the light. so went to a south africa's most populous township and home to millions of eyes. and john's iconic as part of a massive chris tiny paragon of hospital also known as baron and is the biggest eye hospital in the southern hemisphere. many of sweaters poor and indigent utilize the services on offer. we serve a huge population here are the greatest separators probably at least 2 and a half 1000000 we don't know the exact numbers and we know it is they are hospital we've been here since 1955 and be part of bearer and we have

a good reputation we have a lot of social violence motor vehicle accidents and it is then also gunshot injuries that come to us in our main function was to do catch a surgery here we are overwhelmed on a daily basis by all the trauma that we get there. and dr rob daniel is a few weeks away from completing his 5 year residency at some johns and he will be moving into private practice and i think that. this is the screening clinic the function of which is to filter out to needs to be seen today. and really to pick up the most burgeoning problems and really to treat. small problems that can be sorted out in a short period of time. the use. on a typical day rob can see between 2 men and 300 patients. per stress and so i mean this is africa there's always shortage equipment is always

a problem. mode. of us have our own equipment just to get 3. diabetics we check the same day because if there's any problem then we want to be able to just pick it up right away or you've got a date for today you can go to the main clinic you've got to follow the structure just come from a clinic and people with trauma will see them the said and we organize a card for them and then there's a scene in the manga and they don the bottom shift up says. patients are referred from the screening room to the main clinic they can wait most of the day in the queue. to be day we talk to patients that come and see a c o m e people the beaches or something at the station was. just. this. is the test.

i repeat patient 43 year old polish led into the clinic by his friend pulls blindness was caused by untreated diabetes his wife couldn't accompany him as she is the family's only breadwinner she supports pulled in their 4 children leave to go to court also his rights are so retreating that essentially trying to make him comfortable it's another to move the pirates out without trying to get a new visual improvement in a serious car. but unfortunately taken a turn for the worse story called stuck to him and connor a senior doctor to get a 2nd opinion on polls cases and it's a big book solutions and other leads coming out good going to 6 i just noticed it's a blind eye anyway so we have to look at someone with. the knowledge the eyes of. god is going to become very bad. so let's say the best option for you refuse to

have an operation where we would remove the eye. ok i understand. ready my doctors have to have reasonable eyesight you can do a commodity if you've got poor vision because whatever we do we're using a license to see the pathology in the eye to make the diagnosis we see more and more of diabetes now can cause blindness in a variety of ways trix earlier in diabetic patients they do get demi stew their blood vessels. sometimes they develop new blood vessels which could over the back of which believe they can get him because. that's what that's the more obvious he said new blood vessels growing in abnormal blood vessels which were leaking and bleeding and this ways had a huge bleed and that bleed created a cloud that you couldn't see through that's why he had the surgery done yesterday

. we have to draw that it tonight's the next time this patient comes if somebody else easy middle is he knows what we've seen at the last because it would be ok for you to read a book and you feel good. when. we deal with people in terms of their life the vision is the must and it's a sense which you have to not have that is so debilitating how all the old laws of . the old how old are the. long time. looking new ones are broken will you go back to old losses obviously they're not going to be set up for the new lens that we put inside you are so that could well be the reason. why it's not seeing well in the distance but at least we look for a reason on the phone. for more money. rudnick

sees a 75 year old. woman he presents with cataracts full of. the simple operations overseas to his site ringback but there is a 2 year waiting list at john. because the that's right so they're really related to. 60 percent of 6 year olds 70 percent of 7 year olds a song. called know about us and those. who have come here who. can't go get when it. comes that they go. big smile. that. they put drops in your eyes. oh there's the old saying that the eyes the window to the soul. we doctors and mean we deal with people on

a very personal basis which is fundamentally based on trust the comfort which a patient feels by caring for them that's what gives us a lot of a job satisfaction. but that's a. another day there but. yeah i mean for some doctors it's another day seeing patients on the benches while for hemant it's a pediatric clinic which brings its own particular challenges. was wrong. good for you. can suck it they don't like to be touched so you're going to try to guess they when they awaken with a playful the same streets. that it's always going to be patient with their in the

very youngest kids who use things like hundreds of thousands just to get an estimate of what their visions last. year. was set you see that. right. there. i mean really can see me. 80 percent of all sin city put comes from your eyes and also the way you view the world perceive the world comes from my eyes basically i mean these are kids that i clearly know some of them you can do something about someone in your country and a good developmental problems you know where you are walking along the route it's you that follows the boy probably has a neurological disorder it follows he will be referred to a barrel full for the tests like no you know i show you the small streets he doesn't to gun see there you know see if you can see large objects pretty gutsy the smaller ones you know. guys

a lot of the bigger than almost anything babies got some sort of a symbol you know. today's pull surgery dory will be removing his eyes and inserting. silicone ball into the empty socket to stop the pain that also in his blind eye was causing him. sorry for something so very sorry this is painful because of his blindness paul has never seen his young son he has. my love my mom or my son the last one i do. i don't know you so what 10 miles i'm going to hear and. i'm getting in my ear whether more i'm looking for a. camera doing what's called the restoration. basically or move the corner and put in

a silicone ball to have some volume to the orbit they closed. on the ice block 3 opted to go to the very final solution and to reverse russian right now i'm just cutting rather content. to work with the things we think. i like your place in the world you've given us the exposed to some of the conditions. so that's. where we've put the silicon wall in and out and now we're just going to close up we're going to close the sclera in the country when we're done. really well there are a lot of problems like complications to the success of this russian. i should be filing polish it should go out tomorrow she.

lose. the doctors at st johns i actually volunteer their free time to operate on a few of the fountains awaiting cash back surgery. called the mercy list this gives sign in one eye to those who are completely blind. rumors are on the board. in. the tower while. it's ok. the mostly list patients are fortunate to jump the 2 year waiting list and miss the dish just a little we do all of them under local anaesthetic so none of the patients are going to be really asleep reject them with the local anaesthetic injection every go . you'll see that start going away in ok slowly slowly.

this simple procedure will change their lives restoring their vision and independence in only 20 minutes. if we want to try to give a perfect operation you're going to try to perfect it's there because if you get into their private life the next step and if you. go to a catholic would be relatively. evelyn's in your eyes normally clear. as you get all of it becomes a pacifier. and this was a quote here. and. we're just remove the we are naturally in which other category that reversal is going to replace the patients naturally because if you don't put a linsey of a person going a very strong glasses for focus properly. this landscape is in the court of. your case off of the notion of anything you do know any pain. finish operation when

a very nice. letter or. work or rob is about to perform his last cataract surgery at st john's before completing his 5 year training at barrow his last patient is a paraplegic he's hoping to make her life easier with one. this disability. by an open wound and egged on glee had a lot to continue to carry around to see look at it all made me love to see it in all the big books and. video and it was. the incidence of cataracts is extremely high no matter where you go it's the bread and butter of any off form of as you practice because it's the most common program . it's actually the most successful operation that we have in modern made some that means that the results are good it's one of the reasons i did offer some of.

you wouldn't most of the song. i want to vacuum $200.00 pieces of from other diseases is probably one of the foster areas of growth and medicines just unbelievable i mean a year ago i was telling president there's nothing i can do for you for this or that condition and today i can offer them the treatments just you know a psych saw to. move into private practice will allow him to keep up with the latest technologically concerts which barack terminal is off to. the doctors who operated on 8 mostly just patients come and finishes with the last patient of the day. i enjoy working i enjoy doing new procedures if i can. what gives me excited he's getting sidetracked so that's a real big deal. and the other thing is this is also an academic exercise so.

there's always new things and. there's so many things because. i think in the future we should be able to cure almost all blind. children. got a ball of those who. do. later in the afternoon rob gets another perspective of barack from the. plates the floss more there are quite challenging from the very technical i love the technical stuff . the research the come up over ha ha ha ha ha ha ha but really it is amazingly liberates experience. for the top of the club bob the bomb. piled up. to one of.

the others or the up of all. the i'm sure file photo of a little. over him oh yeah wait a minute there are one hospital. it's just such a goldmine of experience. i suppose you know a lot. going into private practice. feel quite confident with the experience of going to. this morning the doctors on call the rifle work to find to trauma cases waiting for them the patients have been sent to them from the trauma unit. in this general who try to hijack a post. through the broken board procedures. strand it's never the good guys were there. with south africa having one of the highest crime rates

in the world caught hijackings are commonplace acts of senseless violence often accompany the crimes. that's right he's a low risk man turning to me the fear the damage it could be related to money to. the country can. you see anything that was on. his head about. him about. his heart very little down called creature that. you. have to take it off. you know we'll put him over into it and then we put. the cost on front that our. andree books the man for surgery and quickly moves on to deal with

a case of domestic violence. she says she was 1st punched in the right of a has been too many hours of this morning she sustained less rushing to unload and we still need to look at the height to see whether there is really very stylised all there they've ever knocked out looking down on me look down. can you see me tatty can you see our. sister can you ask her whether she can see nicely with it are over the division is down on the yard not that i mean. here we have one where you can see me. about 33 just needed to have a look. ok. we're going to need to operate this i.v. was ok. in south africa one woman is killed by her partner every 6 hours leading to the highest rate of femicide in the world.

so this morning to see better. you look for to me please ringback. reno scattered operation you got to know they only did the right right and it's likely that i 65. there are they hear it and i think it's to morning wondering good line through how is you your knots final than the fuss a c. of on the monkey the leak new sink on your lame see well we had to me and the with be of to be you know the surgery went well that was and was difficult so it's revert cats wrecked was it streamed on but it's ultimately shal soon 3 were to choose

news on this for its the in the music the late of the lay cysts sort of of a welds daughter and at look through the is what said to leave x. to it's quite a special but that one saving so wet o. cing the light we rind a return recently to bata to see how much had changed in the decade you and some good not lynch god told one look a little by legal of that book when living there giving go if you pull that lit up

by lester live legit all the big opals so then we 1st met dr robot daniel he was finishing his 5 year resident see pics and jones hospital it so way telling i decade on he continues to serve a community he set of a charity called banani which means let us all see inside africa zoo language. this is incredible technology what what it does is it measures a child's vision from one meter in one second and it gives us an automated result from the we able to screen our children who have pathology and we then expose them to a full i examine nation and allow them to be treated in the 1st old environment because this is so simple and so portable we literally in a in

a toilet. and we can deliver this to everybody. i got. 5. with his portable clip and dr daniel can set up his clinic anyway including this toilet in a community center he can examine 300 or more children in one session. it was his time at st john's hospital in soweto to inspire him to continue serving to pull even though he now runs a successful private practice with the latest technology. i think spending 4 years serving. a great population. in front of the experience on to me that. i'm so privileged group of people i'm confident all the aspects of life

the way we don't all have these programs. dr daniel also treats adults it's an eye clinic based in this church. into in-flow people got it. in english we call it a cataract so the cataract means that the name. is. going to arise for you to have an operation. 10 years later the plot of you average person in the flow community in south africa is no better perhaps even a little worse than what it was this is a great motivator for us to keep giving back to these communities and to a little bit to improve their lot. well that's it from rewind for this week there check out the rewind page on al-jazeera dot com for more powerful films from. from man is

a deadly attack in kabul last week and the afghan president has appeared to welcome the move the truck tweeted late saturday unbeknownst to almost everyone the major taliban leaders and separately the president ever afghanistan were going to secretly meet with me at camp david on sunday on fortunately in order to build false leverage they admitted to an attack in kabul that killed one of our great great soldiers and 11 other people i immediately called off peace negotiations for the taliban claimed responsibility for thursday's suicide bomb attack saying a foreign military convoy was charged in the blast destroyed cars and shops not far from the u.s. embassy and the headquarters of afghanistan's international military force there's been no letup in attacks despite taliban and u.s. negotiators reporting progress in months of talks hosted by qatar tony burley has more from the afghan capital. privately i think the afghan government is please that these talks of being canceled but officially they are franking the americans

for their efforts in these peace negotiations and they've stressed at the only way to getting and meaning for peace in afghanistan is through nonviolence they want the taliban to stop fighting they want to cease fire something that has never been agree between the americans and the taliban and they want to hold direct talks with the taliban this is something the taliban is always refused they call the afghan government to puppet of the americans and their refused to talk to them of course with this draft peace agreement if it was side it would then lead to direct talks in some form with the afghan government but there are concerns our the afghan government wants an and need to the what to the fighting it once then meaningful talks to go ahead and the big question is where does this now leave us the taliban we understand a having high level meetings of their own they can go 2 ways they can either say yes hang on the americans a serious let's go back to the negotiating table with something more to offer because so far they've kid seeded very little or it can lead to an escalation of

the conflict everyone here has been concerned at the pace of these peace negotiations it had 9 meetings in a year quite an achievement getting them around the table in the 1st place but the americans how being excepting to little from the taliban that's the overriding opinion so they want more from the taliban before we were get a meaningful peace but there is still here now an edge to this city people are concerned or the attacks which of increased in the recent days and weeks may increase even further well let's look now at how the united states entered into those negotiations with the taliban they had repeatedly refused to talk with the afghan government viewing our shuffle administration as illegitimate taliban leaders had long demanded direct talks with the u.s. and last year those calls were answered with both sides meeting and qatar's capital doha negotiations centered around 4 key areas a complete withdrawal of foreign forces dialogue with the afghan government and a ceasefire the us wanted a guarantee that afghanistan would not be used as

a launching pad for attacks on other countries and after 9 rounds of talks the u.s. and now to this month an agreement had been reached in principle for him at daschle is a political analyst and a former editor of kabul weekly joins us live now from there so 1st of all what do you make of president trump's abrupt decision is this. the right thing for for the peace negotiations at this particular point in time. oh yes when and when negotiations are going go on when 2 sides are talking about a possible freeze and from the other side the violence level is easing the way the entire live on are targeting. being civilian or military forces as well as the foreigners again being military or civilian so there has to be

the think about the talks because the aim of the talks is to stop the violence and to have the peace but if this does not reach by the talks so there has to be another way to shoot. and the afghan government has given their reaction to trump's decision saying that. we can't talk to no one can talk to the taliban while they are launching these attacks so they have to see something tangible from them does this put the pressure back on the taliban now. oh are they afghan government was not happy with the way that. it was running the negotiation with taliban from the beginning they were mentioning that the an end date is over a location but now soon as president has made the new decision so there is a ground for the afghan government to raise its wise. i think

tyler one will feel themselves under pressure is they were they were giving lots of ground and advantages in the last. almost a year by a by by you is which was not. acceptable for afghans afghans were always complaining about the way that the u.s. war promoting taliban and giving ground for them to be you can eyes in the international level in a very high and creative with me i think now do they really feel themselves under pressure are there legitimate questions as well about the structure of the whole taliban leadership about whether the negotiators in these talks that were taking place in doha were actually speaking for. the taliban commanders in afghanistan whether whether there was any whether there was any sort of a disconnect there. oh this is this is a big question in the mind of fun and it's

a big concern for for for our on because they are negotiating in sitting in qatar they are negotiating peace but the violence and war fighting is losing the very day there is a question if if they have enough authority to stop their soldiers and ground to stop violence in the accepted peace now now now they have to prove that good to speak with you get to get your perspective on all of this fame vashti's in kabul thanks for being with us. now another british government minister has quit the cabinet of prime minister boris johnson over his brags it strategy amber rudd who was the work and pensions secretary says she no longer believes the object of his government is to get a deal she had voted to stay in the european union during the break that referendum 3 years ago rudd told the b.b.c.

she resigned because too much of the government's planning is going into a no deal breaks it i have not seen another what going into actually trying to get a deal when earlier in the week i asked number 10 for a summary of what the planning was for actually getting a deal i was sent a one page summary so it's the combination of the fact that there's not enough work going into actually getting a deal which is i think is not what the prime minister signed up to try to do and secondly the expulsion of 21 of my colleagues who are good moderate conservatives well in her resignation letter rudd described the sacking of 21 m.p.'s earlier this week as an assault on decency and democracy one of them was the grandson of so winston churchill ever lead to questions about johnson's leadership largely has that. london's parliament square is graced with a statue of britain's most famous politician and the ghost of winston churchill his legacy and beliefs have very much been on people's minds in this extraordinary

contradictory week. when parliament resumes prime minister boris johnson himself a biographer of churchill invoked the language and even the intonation of the wartime leader to suggest that the u.k. was somehow in a conflict with the european union he used the very same words about the e.u. that churchill had done about nazi germany in 1944 you never surrender that sort of language comes from the playbook of johnson's new chief of staff dominic cummings a brick sit idealogue behind the slogan take back control and cummings many believe was also behind the brutal treatment of those conservatives who could not accept johnson's agenda contrary to the prime minister's assertion one of those was to nicholas soames a conservative grandy summarily sacks with 20 others for refusing to support johnson's do or die approach to leaving the european union but his speech after being told he was no longer welcome in johnson's conservative party was

extraordinary not least because johnson had sacked the grandson of winston churchill where they were together in 1954. i'm truly very sad that it should end in this way only does my most fervent hope that this house will rediscover the spirit of compromise humility and understand that will enable us to finally to push ahead with the vital work in the interests of the whole country sitting in front of sames was another conservative rebel richard benyon who was also sacked the next day he told me of his concerns about the direction the party he loved was being taken in the attitude of some of the people. who were around the prime minister not. cummings especially yes and you know i think they have a big responsibility for the size of the rebellion last night and some of the things that were said to colleagues of mine more extraordinary. the generally held view is

that the johnson administration is now so terrified of nigel farage as breck's it party that despises the european union but it will no longer brook any dissent it was faraj who status in british politics forced the bracks referendum in the 1st place and now it seems he is driving the conservative party to adopt his views. consequently today's conservative party finds itself at war with the european union and with itself its legacy and relationship with its most famous son the irony isn't lost on anyone that after the 2nd world war churchill gave all of his most famous speeches in which he called for the creation of a united states of europe and working together economically and socially for the greater good that phrase united states of europe is used by brick sitters including those inside the johnson ministration as the biggest insult of all.
