lation ship with one of the key campaign who paid for breaks it people in power on al jazeera. this is al-jazeera. hello on how my head's in this is the al jazeera news hour live from doha coming up in the next 60 minutes. the future does not belong to globalists the future belongs to patriots. america 1st is yet again the rallying cry from donald trump at the u.n. general assembly as he takes aim at china iran and venezuela. hello i'm maryanne demasi in london with the top story from the year it. has not been
9:01 pm
plain wrong. this is the unanimous judgment of all 11 just. a huge blow for boris johnson as the u.k. supreme court rules that it was on will fall to suspend parliament. at least 26 people were killed in indonesia's popular region after racism allegations sparked violent protests. ansa laying to rest a long running control of a scene spain as judges rule the remains of general franco shoot speed soon. the u.s. president's has urged people around the world to take price in their country and preserve national sovereignty in his address to the united nations general assembly asserting that the future belongs to those he called patriots and not globalists in
9:02 pm
a wide ranging speech donald trump again attacked china for its trade policies and he says all nations have a g.c. to act against iran in fact that sanctions on tehran will be tyson's further. well for more on all of this let's speak to our diplomatic and said james bays and he's at the u.n. edginess given the events in the run up to this general us general assembly we had been expecting quite a strong response in that speech from president trump when it comes to iran. yeah we were all watching to see which way the president would go with regard to iran and i think he took a pretty middle course clearly there had been hope a few weeks ago that this was going to be a week of peace and diplomacy and possibly even a meeting between president trump and president rouhani that is looking very unlikely of course things changed about 10 days ago with that drone attack on the saudi arabia's oil facilities which the u.s. and the u.k.
9:03 pm
germany and france believe iran was responsible for having said that it was still all of broad shoes in his speech when he was talking about iraq he said that many countries in the past who had been photos of the u.s. were now its greatest allies and he said countries should embrace friendship so an olive branch but also tough words on sanctions all nations have a duty to act. no responsible government should subsidize iran's bloodlust. as long as iran's menacing behavior continues sanctions will not be lifted they will be tightened. iran's leaders will have turned a proud nation into just another cautionary tale. of what happens when a ruling class abandons its people and embarks on
9:04 pm
a crusade for personal power. and riches. well our james and other points of contention as it were from the point of view of the u.s. is of course china and he didn't mince his words when it came to see the ongoing trade war with beijing tittie. no this was the bit that the markets were watching and there was an instant dip. he said his words about china i think it is worth remembering where we are in terms of a timetable there all which is the good news talks set between the u.s. and china that coming up in early october a couple of weeks away so i think you have to think about the fact that this might be a tough talk head of those that go stations but it certainly was tough talk the united states lost 60000 factories after china and to
9:05 pm
the. this is happening. to other countries all over the. the world trade organization needs drastic change. the 2nd largest economy in the world should not be permitted to declare itself a developing country in order to game the system. at others' expense. for years these abuses were tolerated. ignored. or even encouraged. globalism exerted a religious pall on the past leaders causing them to ignore their own national interests. but as far as america is concerned those days are over. it's was remarking on i think the speaking the style of president trump it always when you get to live is a had scripted speech he is more subdued but he did sound pretty slow in the
9:06 pm
way he was speaking at this particular event some might even say tired i think you've got to remember what's going on domestic only for him because there's a drumbeat of continuous headlines and many using the word impeachment and many democrats now suggesting that's the way things should go after a phone conversation he had with the president of ukraine in which he seemed to put pressure on ukraine to investigate for corruption the son of want to hit his main political rivals the former vice president joe biden that's the backdrop domestically for all of this and you might all be surprised how well that in the speech a long speech by president trump here the general assembly there was no mention whatsoever of ukraine james bays said my friends there at the u.n. for now i thank you very much indeed. well turkey's president ratchet type errors of on highlighted the plight of syrian refugees and spoke about the war in syria in his address to the un general assembly is
9:07 pm
a speech before the world leaders to remind them of the humanitarian costs of war will bring up a photo of a 3 year old boy his lifeless body on a turkish base to the world's attention to the place of refugees out of one says it's now time to end the crisis for you today syria has become a place that hurts the most collective conscience of humanity and has become a symbol of injustice turkey today is the most generous country in terms of humanitarian aid taking into consideration the ratio of turkish officials humanitarian assistance to its g.d.p. we are currently hosting 5000000 refugees fleeing conflict starvation and persecution in other words there are more asylum seekers in turkey than 29 states in the united states well more on bashar is syria's senior political analyst and joins me now live from london mar and we heard the theme of injustice through writes that speech from the turkish president really focused quite heavily on the situation in syria is he not. he did because of course it's the
9:08 pm
country close door and it's the country that has suffered such tragedy over the last 56 years from revolution to civil war. with millions of casualties in terms of both killed injured and displaced refugees and so on and so forth and and turkey did really bear the brunt of it in terms of refugees in terms of cost and and so on so forth but that was just an example of justice is injustices in fact that are taking place throughout the muslim world that present the one spoke to about whether they happening by muslims like in egypt and in saudi arabia or against muslims like in min moderate or kashmir as well as certainly in the west where muslims are discriminated against and so on and so and so many ways but as noted the one son that like the man who would be defending muslims around the world
9:09 pm
whether it's so if the cleared self assigned or really for lack of any other voice to be honest with you thus far certainly we heard from president sisi and he said almost nothing really that is significant now what is important in this how is the following whether it is present at the un or others that we've heard thus far today what i hear is a lot a lot of people lemon ting the past and the present but very few if any it is human nature the way forward meaning there's lots of talk bitter talk about the state of affairs in the world order and in the region certain regions but very few ideas very few themes very few visions illuminating their way forward that means that we basically did not here today. enzian swirl another speech that piqued our interest was of course of qatar's. carney he too cold for an
9:10 pm
end to injustice is an annoyance for civically to see the more than 2 year long political book kids saudi arabia the battery and egypt's. the unjust unlawful and unjustified blockade imposed by some countries on the state of qatar continues the gulf cooperation council was the 2nd victim of the blockade it was paralyzed and lost its role because of a blockade in line with our foreign policy of respect for international law and the peaceful resolution of differences and disputes we have sustained such aggression emphasize our position that unconditional dialogue based on mutual respect and the lifting of the unjust blockade is the only means to end this crisis. many arguing that the un has suddenly fallen foul of not taking action. is saying that the g.c.c. is another body that has failed to tackle the crisis is by paralysis
9:11 pm
a very also didn't suggest a way forward i said that the street dialogue. absolutely and to be fair there's nothing new there i mean the cutout and the emir of qatar have been saying that for a while now they're basically extending their hands for peace to their neighbors despite the conspiracies that's by the distortions despite the threat of use of force and despise the of the ongoing economic and area bucket that can scott and yet that need of others visitor said look our steadfast has been clear our capacity not only to withstand the blockade has been proven but we also have emerged basically but off than most of our neighbors and our. our enemies but in the end of the day this has to end and so i think the extending the the peace of or the arm for hand for peace in the sense of you know dialogue and negotiations on the basis
9:12 pm
of respect for for the sovereignty of cut out of the for the sovereignty of each country the region is needed in order not only to have a bit of stability but also to save the one and only functioning region of gulf organization which is the g.c.c. so in a sense they have got that feels vindicated and he's underlining both in terms of what that means to be doing or is doing for its people but as well as regional internationally because after all while it is quite small it's been quite effective because it is quite rich and is able to create the kind of outreach internationally in order to help whether it is climate change just that they contributing $100000000.00 or through other ewen and other multilateral agencies ok martin bashir al jazeera senior political analysts thank you very much indeed. well there's also more still to come on the siren creating at least 40 civilians were
9:13 pm
killed as a wedding party in afghanistan by what's believed to be a u.s. airstrike. in the u.k. supreme court has ruled that boris johnson abuses powers and that it unlawfully by suspending parliament for more we can cross the maryam namazie in our european protest center. boris johnson says he strongly disagrees with the supreme court's judgment and claims that the case was part of a plot to frustrate breck's it but he says he will respect the ruling and plans to fly back from new york in time for when parliament resumes sitting on wednesday is likely to be met with increased calls for his resignation as paul brennan now reports. 3 outside the supreme court the antiquity demonstrators were in the mystic right inside the judge's delivered that
9:14 pm
devastating ruling with calm deliberation at issue where the prime minister boris johnson suspended parliament lawfully or simply to prevent parliament from holding his government to account the effect on the fundamentals of our democracy was extreme no justification for taking action with such an extreme effect has been put before the court the court is bound to conclude. that the decision to advise the magistrate to purab parliament was unlawful. because it had the effect of frustrating oh preventing infelicity of parliament to carry out its constitutional functions without reasonable justification this case went to the fundamental issue of the very nature of democracy here in the united kingdom and it was a stress test if you like of the separation of powers between the 3 branches of government but this conflict is far from over the outcome is
9:15 pm
a vindication for gina miller the campaigner who has fought the government for the past 3 years to uphold the law wrong breaks it. today if not all went back to any individual or because it's a win for parliamentary so venti the separation of powers and the independence of our british courts news of the course decision prompted a standing ovation from delegates of the opposition labor party conference with the party leader was on his feet at the time the supreme court has just announced its decision i with the and it shows that the prime minister has acted wrongly in shutting down because i was demand for parliament to be recalled gathered pace i thought a speaker of the lower house stepped in i have instructed the house so far it is to prepare not for the recall. purgation was unlawful in these void to prepare for
9:16 pm
the resumption of the business of the house of commons. problems are you going to. prime minister johnson received the news in new york where he's attending the u.n. general assembly he said he disagreed with the ruling but with respect to the media is not going to get on and deliberative will be 31st yes of course that will not come back but. the respect that there was back in london that his position is now in question parliament will resume on wednesday morning it promises to be a tumultuous return paul brennan al-jazeera the supreme court. well let's go live now to understand ins his and westminster force mean obviously this ruling in and of itself was historic and unprecedented in so many ways andrew but what does it ultimately main for boris johnson and his strategy for dealing with right.
9:17 pm
well look at the facts and they're incredibly damaging for a prime minister of the day to be advising the queen that it's lawful it's a probe suspend parliament is one thing but then finding out from 11 supremes who judges you know honestly deciding that it was unlawful wrong use of the constitution wrong wrong wrong is incredibly damaging boris johnson doesn't see it as a resignation matter he's in new york at the united nations general assembly but there has been a development because the u.k. attorney general's office is as admitted that it did advise boris johnson geoffrey cox the attorney general advised him that it was lawful and he was acting in good faith and as far as they were concerned the attorney general's office it was an all full to probe parliament no doubt whatsoever that was
9:18 pm
a leak that's now being confirmed that will be used as a defense line by boris johnson in explaining what when so on but there's a ferrari right across the u.k. over this because the mere fact that it was unlawful one headline says that the mother of all parliaments was trying to be shot down by the father of all lines meaning boris johnson that's the sort of sentiment that's out there right now . right and so andrea we are now expecting parliament resumes testing ordinarily in these circumstances a prime minister would resign but with bars johnson and then you need a 2nd set of circumstances around backset now in this country that's not until care . well let's just set the scene here parliament on wednesday it will resume in the words of john bercow the house of commons the lower
9:19 pm
house speaker and it's expected that the government will try to. announce a recess but of course there's no majority to get that through could that be turned down that could be an extraordinary situation whereby parliament is sitting joining the conservative party the ruling conservative party conference in the at the weekend which will go into next week and so you could actually find parliament sitting while the conservatives are trying to hold a conference that's unprecedented like so many aspects to this the bottom line is where in new new waters with the british politics right now no one can really get a grip on what the public mood is you can expect boris johnson to be playing to his supporters in a very populist tone to say that more damage to the brics it more damage to bret's it and also pushing for a general election that's the other major issue will be a vote of confidence will the opposition parties now decide yes we will go for
9:20 pm
a vote of no confidence that's what you'd expect after something like this but all the off all the arithmetic is in their favor because boris johnson still has a minority government and so you have a situation here that you can't really find words to describe it in political terms it is is going to be all you heard paul brennan right mention that this is going to be a day in parliament well it could be bigger than that it could be seismic so this is not any any way an end to this chapter it's going on and it's going to get more and more bitter thank you very much under simmons and western. well that you know and this ruling happened whilst the u.k. his main opposition party was holding its annual conference in brighton labor party members of parliament will now travel back to london early for parliament sitting on wednesday who is saying that despite johnson's continual missteps they still trail in the polls that the opposition aren't sleep was at
9:21 pm
a conference in brighton. then you know over the over 40 and the feud so prime minister turmeric robert says much about the state of british politics at the opposition can be riven with infighting but still say it's winning because the government is in an even bigger hole like everywhere else the decision of the supreme court took everyone here by surprise and the labor leader jeremy colvin moved his speech forward by a day so he could get backs opponents when it resumes on wednesday and how he enjoyed sticking to boom seemed to boris johnson governments will be held to account for what it has done boris johnson. has been found to have misled the country this unelected prime minister should now resign. the work that may be a huge rift inside the labor party about his position on bracks it's but this is
9:22 pm
nothing compared to the hatred of the prime minister it will suddenly made colvin's job very easy labor will end the brics crisis by taking decision back to the people with a choice a credible leave alongside remain that's not complicated labor is a democratic process that trusts the faithful. even before coleman spoke the talk was whether all the opposition parties were trying to force johnson to resign in the confidence votes the view here was that they needed to wait until the no deal bricks hits at the end of october have been ruled out your stance will sign not look to the left as even been drafted in the legislation even applies if it is done so then of course we can have confidence fight we can see to the general election go forward to win an election for the play both of those got very cold and says he and his policy are ready for that election even though the polling suggests they would lose unless bracks it is delayed yet again but with the government's ship
9:23 pm
sinking. it's all about the timing labor's problem remains jeremy corbin's deep personal popularity with voters and yet they're up against the prime minister now accused of breaking the law and he runs a minority governments in a total mess and so despite everything labor is once again in attack mode as they head back to parliament in london all the opposition parties can smell johnson's blood in the water that task now is to dig out the way of working together to kill him off lawrence lee al-jazeera or the labor party conference in brighton all right well at from london for now have will feel better on acting in doha. now a publicity stunt is how some lawyers are describing buoying software it seems bereaved families following 2 airliner crashes last year around $140000.00 has to be paid to each claimants 346 passengers were and crew were killed in the

9:26 pm
a case like this and in this particular case it's clear that boeing put profit over safety and decided to ignore all of the red flags all of the warnings that were occurring that it had and continued to market sell and deliver this dangerous product. boeing says it's supporting investigations but doesn't comment on the lawsuit is the world's largest aircraft manufacturer and one of america's largest companies industry experts say is likely to pay dearly for to survive for boeing of course being on the receiving end of legal action from the families is just part of a wider picture of a lot of legal action that is either being taken or set to be taken by the industry including by leasing companies who operate these and while this will be a very significant hit in the aircraft manufacturers life time. to fly. investigations and court cases are expected to last months. victims' families say

9:51 pm
when at a time when the secretary general is chosen as such it extremely important topic climate just as our central something where which we discussed yesterday and we're seeing more and more impatience everywhere and we're seeing more and more around the world that. many things can lead us to feel pessimistic. but we are not meeting the challenge you know the demands that we have set for ourselves the goals that we are separate selves and the area where we're warming or the combat to protect biodiversity there are many tensions. around the world and the level is unprecedented just when we see what just happened in the gulf a few days ago on the persian gulf and we don't see the challenges. that many of our friends in the hell are facing and i see many friendly faces here that
9:52 pm
i know from other regions of the world these conflicts are increasingly complex and cruel cruel against. civilians against humanitarian personell against their rights defenders as david miliband said it's the age of impunity and open trade tensions are increasing creasing they're not using worries about. technological change and its impact well. i don't want to draw a picture that is streaming it as a mystery and i know that you're tired of. listening to speeches since this morning i don't want to have all give you a whole litany of reasons for which to despair however we have everything to meet these challenges everything and in an unprecedented way 1st of all we have the knowledge and never has the science around the world you know been so bundled to
9:53 pm
meet the challenges that we have and to see that the means of meeting mode and the median is challenges everything we're developing in technology. every year we have the knowledge and the detail we have the funding in mumbai. there is no lack of funding around the world. we have the capacity to innovate that is there is an equal. which is on a number of topics some so way of dealing with these challenges we have means of combat a poverty to 2 g. to deal with many of the changes that i just mentioned we have. we have an awareness a deep awareness of these problems of the modern world our youth people our young people. and also our public opinions are better informed and aware than ever before and we have a framework here even. livable if framework
9:54 pm
a. an organization of free states that is ready to work together to deal with the challenges and prepare for the future we have as we call it a framework for money multilateralism whether it's really regional multilateralism or to deal with specific issues. you specialize in organization so what isn't what are we what are we lacking. why do we keep pronouncing speeches and oh keep giving our people the the the. the the me illusion that we can't seem to be doing anything about it well thinking speaking here before you i keep remembering a text that often has given me sustenance. and that soldier needs and in fact. wrote in 1068 on the decline of courage that is what is missing that is what we're lacking is courage
9:55 pm
a lot of courage and enough often enough and here i would simply like to say that the appeal that i would like to make to you would be $2.00 to $2.00 for us to bring back courage on 2 subjects just to start the courage to start building peace and the courage to to to act responsibly to take responsibility the courage 1st of all to do build peace because you need you need courage for that. because each time to be to to build peace is it is taking a risk i mean not simply defending your own narrow interests or positions that sometimes have led to question of tensions around in every region of the world. building peace is to take to take a risk the risk in vague aging and dialogue making compromise to be building trust . and in many in so many regions that is what we need to do more you know you
9:56 pm
know that's what the middle east today needs. and the region of the gulf. region needs it but it's not over courage. means not simply provocations or reprisals no it's. it's irresponsible action followed by a transplant from the 1st time when i spoke at this. general assembly i shared my convictions on the uranium issue said that the strategy of pressure on the iranian nuclear program could only lead to an increase in tensions in the region. of all unless you there was a clear prospect for a diplomatic solution in 2018 after with the american withdrawal of from the vienna agreement of 2015 i proposed a global framework making a possible to preserve the way in to compliment it with it more expanded approach
9:57 pm
to dealing with issues raised by the iranian nuclear program after 2025 also the role of iran and in the regional crisis and its ballistic programs well what we have today well i mean in american strategy and the european russian and european determination to preserve the 2015 agreement to the to easy for you ron has responded by a strategy of maximum pressure on its regional environment and neighbors in this context. the the growth in tensions. that we've seen over the past few months with has been constant you know the attacks on the 14th of september against saudi arabia have clearly changed the situation. and so bearing that in mind today we have a risk of a serious conflict based on a miscalculation or
9:58 pm
a disproportionate response. is that the mercy of an incident of. a miscalculation and the consequences for the region would be very serious. too serious for us to live on the edge of a cliff so what should we do well more than ever i very sincerely and of really believe that the time has come to resume negotiations between the united states of america iran and the signatories of the j c p o a and the. the countries of the region which are 1st and foremost affected by sitting security and stability of that so what should it be that the conditions the terms and the goal the targets of the not good. first of all the certainty that a run never acquire develop nuclear weapons and secondly a solution to a crisis in yemen. thirdly. a regional security
9:59 pm
plan which also incorporates the other crisis in the region and security of maritime maritime navigation and finally a lifting of economic sanctions. and i'm not naive at all and i don't believe in miracles i do but i believe that it takes courage to build peace. and that is why it's important for. the united states iran and the signatories of this agreement to show this courage. it is with the same conviction that we will continue our work that we've discussed at length over these weeks and during the g. 7 summit and berries on syria on libya on the saddle on your very no other word to syria i want to salute the encouraging announcement made
10:00 pm
