6:02 am
president says that bolton had fallen out with other senior aides and had made mistakes iran says washington should use the opportunity to quote push warmongers aside alan fisher has more now from washington. donald trump more on the 911 anniversary at the pentagon then surprisingly called reporters into the oval office when he returned to the white house the departure of national security adviser john bolton dominating questions to the president he's somebody that i actually had a very good relationship with but he wasn't getting along with people in the administration that i consider very important. and i hope we we've left in good stead but maybe we haven't maybe we haven't i have to run the country the way we're running the country iran's president suggests john bolton's abrupt departure from the white house should bring a change in u.s. policy and john has americans should know that war mongering and war mongers and
6:03 am
not in their favor they should put aside both warmongers and war mongering and maximum pressure from russia's foreign minister a belief that that's unlikely in the short story as for how it will affect russia u.s. relations i won't guess the policies in the united states are defined by the president as many times supported normalization of trade economy humanitarian and political ties between our countries and increase of cooperation in the world john bolton's official resignation letter was cut and to the point no praise for president trump or his policies just a brief thank you for having afforded me this opportunity to serve our country don't trump says he'll name a new national security advisor next week the president he will look for someone who shares his world view. whose 1st option isn't always military action who support the idea of talks with anyone even the arrhenius 3 possible names to take over one of the most important jobs in washington mr president thank you for the
6:04 am
opportunity to continue to serve keith kellogg a former army general whose country the national security adviser to vice president mike pence there's brian who has been the administration's special representative for iran and is close to secretary of state mike pump and there is douglas macgregor a former army colonel who's often appeared on t.v. praising the president there is some sense of satisfaction in the government that john bolton is now out of a job one senior figure tweeting that john bolton promised 3 months ago that iran would no longer exist we are still standing he wrote he has gone. alan fischer washington the us president has also signaled a change in policy towards afghanistan at a ceremony to mark the 18th anniversary of $911.00 he promised to hate the taliban harder than ever this 3 days after he canceled peace talks with the taliban over the killing of a u.s. soldier has more now from washington d.c.
6:05 am
. it's a somber day in the united states the 18th anniversary of the september 11th attacks and the president did what presidents do on this day as he gave a speech of this time at the pentagon memorial and he talked about the war in afghanistan now in the past the president has raised it seemed to raise the possibility that he could use nuclear weapons to end the conflict saying that he could end the war in just days but he didn't want to kill 10000000 people he didn't specifically say that would be with a nuclear weapon but it doesn't seem possible that it could happen any other way and again at the pentagon memorial he talked about the peace talks breaking down with the taliban and what's next we had peace talks scheduled a few days ago i called them off when i learned that they had killed a great american soldier from puerto rico and 11 other innocent people they thought they would use this or tack to show strength but actually what they showed is
6:06 am
unrelenting we. the last 4 days we have hit our enemy harder than they have ever been hit before and that will continue now it's not at all clear that the pentagon and the military has really stepped up the fight with the taliban they haven't provided any statistics that anything is in fact changed in afghanistan and the president is in a predicament because he promised his base that he would end the war in afghanistan if he wants to actually increase the fight change the momentum he's going to have to send more troops into afghanistan and that's something he doesn't want to do so the president saying that if the tax had been stepped up not at all clear that they have been and not at all clear what comes next. there's a growing international condemnation of these really prime ministers benjamin netanyahu pledge to annex most of the jordan valley one 3rd of the occupied west bank that to now is made a key manifesto promise ahead of next week's elections the jordan valley runs down
6:07 am
the eastern side of the occupied west bank along its border with jordan representing around a 3rd of its area that's now says he wants to an exhaust all of it apart from a region around the palestinian city of jericho marked here in red israel already has many legal settlements in the jordan valley housing an estimated $11000.00 israelis in breach of international law and who now says his plan will be coordinated with the united states who are due to release their long awaited middle east peace plan but yes to win in next week's election 1st all around 65000 palestinians live in the jordan valley region neither even to him has spoken to some of them. we're standing in brasil always a village in the jordan valley this really prime minister benjamin netanyahu says he wants to annex this area he doesn't want to annex that area over there jericho and a lot older because he says he wants to complete and carry out his plan without annex
6:08 am
in any single palestinian but there are palestinians here bedouin communities we've spoken to some of them and they believe that what netanyahu is saying is part of his elections campaign. every time they have is really elections they do it at the expense of the palestinian people and you know says i want to annex a jordan valley so israelis will vote for him not more government is it about the how many terms will leave it to the palestinians have been displaced several times already there's no place else for us to go the jordan valley makes up one 3rd of the occupied west bank it's already under israeli military occupation and palestinians see it as an integral part of their future palestinian state now this is under threat this is why many palestinian officials have been voicing concerns against netanyahu remark they are saying that netanyahu has this regarding international law only for him to win more votes they're calling it an act of
6:09 am
ethnic cleansing is stealing palestinian land and killing any opportunity for a 2 state solution. almost the fiber guti is the secretary general of the palestinian national initiative he called the move by israel's prime minister apartheid. in my opinion what israel will do similar to what they have done in jerusalem and the next jerusalem in 968 the not annex the people. they made them temporary residence in their own city and then they did everything they could to ethnically cleanse the city and moving people gradually. israeli plan is clear and acts in the west bank and then trying to push palestinians out of the bank but that's their dream and i tell you what what is happening is subjecting the population of the west bank like the people of jerusalem and gaza to a system of apartheid what we see here is a system of full fledged apartheid we will not leave whatever they do and i think
6:10 am
the actual outcome politically of what's happening is that we will we the palestinians might have to turn and say ok if you don't allow us to have a state of our own we will ask for a one state solution full democratic rights for everybody which means that state will not be jewish one and that state has to be shared by the 2 people and a palestinian could be the head of that state we will have a long struggle against apartheid to bring down apartheid in the whole of palestine that is the reality of what's going to happen the world community is not doing anything we don't want more condemnations or statements these things do not affect mr netanyahu if the world community is really serious about 2 state solution they have to impose sanctions immediately on israel for violating the very basic international law. south sudan's president salva kiir and the exiled rebel leader

6:25 am
illnesses and have confirmed the least 6 deaths related to east cigarettes also known as faves it's feared that the companies that produce the nicotine filled devices are targeting teenagers with thousands of different flavors one for billing's says national senior vice president for public policy at the american lung association and he joins us now from washington d.c. sir thank you for joining us welcome to al-jazeera so let's focus 1st of all on the flavored of a pink pacifically aimed that at teenagers so your reaction i'm presuming that you're very happy that that that the white house has decided to act as it did yes there's a vital and important step forward to help protect millions of kids that are using these products there are more than 10000 different products for all kinds of different flavors on the market united states cotton candy gummy bear these parts are clearly targeting our kids are fortunate nearly 5000000. middle school students
6:26 am
are using these products. i guess maybe the flavoring targets younger people specifically but faithing in general we have seen become incredibly popular and whether it's true or not it's simply a perceived that's a sort of lighter you know quote unquote have a healthier way of smoking do you think enough research has been done and what is your view of a thing but certainly not in fact the outbreak of more than 450 cases in more than 30 states and 6 deaths shows how risky and dangerous this behavior is we don't know what's in these products we don't know the new york or long term health effects but we are seeing evidence of lung disease and lung damage from using these products in the past decades obviously there's been a lot of publicity against or highlighting the dangers of smoking in many parts of the world on the packets of cigarettes you'll see some pretty shocking images that are meant to deter people from smoking do you think that the existence of
6:27 am
a ping is kind of set that kind of health perception back in a sense that now people do see vaporing as a you know more acceptable face a less dangerous way of smoking last year we saw 78 percent increase in high school students using products today the search for health human services indicated that number has gone up even further in the latest survey so we know that these products are cooking kids they're not designed for adults who are. stopping using cigarettes they're really hawking a new generation of people using tobacco products and we will all suffer the health consequences of another generation lost to nicotine addiction and the health harm caused by tobacco as case of president saying he's considering introducing a ban on the flavor of aping products what else do you think needs to be done not just by government but perhaps to create more social awareness at this. well
6:28 am
certainly we need to increase awareness of people understand what's in these products what we know we don't know about the near term and long term health harm we also need to redouble our efforts against all tobacco products we want the president to go after menthol cigarettes and flavored cigars in addition to east cigarettes and the flavors that are hooking kids we know that flavors attract children we know that more work needs to be done to educate the public we need to raise the price by increasing taxes weed to make sure that these products are included in smoke free air laws there's a lot we can do to help stem the tide of addiction death and disease caused by other tobacco products whole billings from the american lung association say thank you for having shared with us thank you. it's they 6 of new york fashion week the twice yearly showcase for the world's most famous designers but behind the glitz and glamor many in the industry a worried about the united states trade war with china they're concerned that
6:29 am
tariffs will hurt profits and with it the whole u.s. economy kristen salumi reports now from new york. models will pout but this year the drama of new york's fashion week is taking place off the runway where fashion designers are doing the math and discovering that president trump's 15 percent tariff on chinese imports does not add up to a profitable holiday season. nicole duke imports about $30000000.00 pieces from china a year for her fashion lines this is something that only china can do she's having a hard time finding an affordable alternative the question is is the retailer going to go up in their prices they're already complaining that business with amazon it's not great everybody wants less less less cheap cheap cheap the problem is capacity according to the american apparel and footwear association 41 percent of all apparel and 69 percent of footwear sold in the u.s.
6:30 am
comes from china united leg where began reducing its exposure a year ago but we manufacture over $300000000.00 pairs of socks a year and 90 percent of that's coming out of china so when you look at that kind of capacity in even that volume 1st people fundamental product from the american consumer it's like moving the titanic out of the way of an iceberg chief financial officer chris volpe a says they've been warned by retail outlets who carry their socks not to raise prices. chain stores that order and large quantities are better position to absorb the tariffs by lowering their profit margins or convincing their suppliers to lower their costs but experts warn that at least. probably expand is likely to be passed on to consumers. which we have no place to go but to piss this cost on to the consumer and we also now simply put it is prices go up sales go down jobs get lost and the our industry in particular is
6:31 am
a bellwether for the r word from recessions that's the worry at united leg where which employs 325 people in new york because americans may make do with fewer socks but fewer jobs will be much harder for the country to absorb christian salumi al-jazeera new york. scientists in italy have succeeded in creating 2 embryos of the northern white rhino which is functionally extinct with only 2 left both of the female and the embryos have been made using eggs from the 2 remaining females and frozen sperm from dead males they'll be transferred to a surrogate mother a southern white rhino in the near future that kids of poaching of decimated the northern white rhinos number is the last male was euthanized last year after developing age related complications well says he ellis is that the executive director of the international rhino foundation and she joins us live now from
6:32 am
virginia in the us madam thank you so much for joining us here on al-jazeera so i guess it's good news that the embryos have being created but i guess perhaps still too early to be overly happy because we don't yet know if the implantation for example in the southern white rhino females will work or do we have any kind of past experience to know how likely it is that it will succeed. well we don't know we don't know because this is so new it's a tremendous accomplishment taking assisted reproductive technology further in development but as you said it's a long road ahead and next step is to get those embryos into a surrogate develop that into a viable pregnancy and hopefully get a calf on the ground i mean again we're speculating because we're still so far away but potentially this could be good news in the sense that we could see the northern white rhino come back from extinction. well it's difficult to say no
6:33 am
species has ever been brought back from. from the brink of extinction or extinction by technology alone. and once this is reliably reproducible it's one important tool in iran a conservation tool can't you know obviously the northern white rhino is a subspecies the southern white rhino is also in itself a success story not knowing it was threatened as the as the northern a rhino but they were also brought back from 102800000 if i'm not wrong so how did that happen. well that was that happened through the commitment of the south african government and dedicated conservationists in south africa who. put rhinos together protected them and let them do what right now is do best and that's to braeden and have babies and i guess it's organizations like your own that have really raised the global awareness about the threats that you know the rhino is in
