12:01 am
the only thing we want is just that is an issue of the government to support the option and if we didn't i would love to finish this is a after the message is given to this is the reason i also use one of these as you mentioned there stat we did have an altercation between supporters of hezbollah and protesters in a square just a couple 100 meters down from where we are at that was digit off an hour before he started speaking what was your this is a figure that the protesters have right that these political parties not just has but that will bring their men into the streets to cause trouble i mean give my right give your reaction. to send some some of these groups to try to create some trouble on the streets and just make sure to give me the sun and the city actually take you shopping to go out there for the revolution and make sure to say to them all of them. want to be part of piece of shit and in. i will

12:03 am
groups so that you make sure that such a good option and the corruption process and put everyone in jail stick to beat the measures to get it out finished and make an occurrence of it because the company has this 3 because it's holding a party so these are the growth of government that would not want to ask for anything it's a very me that's the most the government can do when we. thank you very much so i see here there is a standoff between the government and the people that you see on the streets not just in the region other cities across this country calling for that but it's going to run this country for decades to stand down it's not happening at the moment if people remain on the streets you have to wait and see how that we can plans out certain people will tell you that they expect large numbers to return to repeat that. stephanie thank you stephanie decker joining us live there from but. indonesian investigators found faults by boeing lyon and the pilots led to last year's plane. that killed all 189 people on board the boeing 737 max plunged into
12:04 am
the sea soon after takeoff from jakarta victoria reports. it's taken these investigators a year to determine exactly what happened in the final moments of lion f. light $610.00 the final crash report blames a combination of factors including design flaws in boeing 737 max jet as well as maintenance problems and inadequate pilot training. the line a plane crashed into the java sea 12 minutes after takeoff from indonesia's capital jakarta all 189 people on board died including anton so hardy's cousins he says he's disappointed with the report's conclusions. and we actually had big hopes that the government would answer all our questions but the information we've been given adds almost nothing to what we already known. the report highlights problems with boeing's anti stall software known as n.
12:05 am
cas it's also implicated in a similar crash in ethiopia in monch which led to the grounding of the max fleet worldwide it's significant because it sort of reaffirms that boeing does share responsibility for this for the way they designed the in care system which is the maneuvering characteristic saying that basically took control of way from the pilots and the pilots were having to fight the airplane pilots flying the line jets had reported problems the day before it crashed and they say it should have been grounded for further tests by me to idella i feel that safety is not yet the core concern in indonesia except for the flag carrier airlines i'm worried about the private aviation companies because even though on paper they're checked by safety inspectors accidents keep happening boeing has already paid a high price the 2737 max crashes within 5 months its chief executive was fired and

12:08 am
a pier say 3. specially toy economy to everybody. out of our industries of sanction creating to create jobs because every country needs funding. countries. we want. to strike. the united states is no sanctions i talked in only 141 individuals and companies are on the sanctions list they said companies in the united states are free to do business and trade with anyone it. is on the sanctions list that company is makes it is about a defense forces that means no country in the e.u. . to the babi only 2 individuals are on that list that's probably the former president and his wife they say that's that's the not the reason for the bobbies
12:09 am
economic crisis he said the reason is corruption and poor policy if the only way such would be removed is if the government. and economic reforms space the constitution and rule of law. well joseph is a journalist on african affairs and a former columnist for the new african magazine he joins us now from london nice to have you with us look the government would blame this on the e.u. and us sanctions wouldn't it but the fact of the matter is those sanctions are targeted individuals and private companies the americans say it is catastrophic financial management that's put the government in this situation. both sides are right but i must say that looking at the figures just come out of a meeting of southern suburbs in london led by their chair boston tanzania and the figures are startling that in the last nearly 20 years as a barber has lost 42000000000 of their buyout of u.s.
12:10 am
fun funds direct investment other us into. about where and up to 21000000000 net in terms of g.d.p. for all that is a startling figure if you go into the detail you really find that actually you begin to ask whether or not sanctions in this day and age is the best way for dealing with some of the political issues but i've said quite clearly yes there were issues that zimbabwe faced and indeed zimbabwe festa but with the west but that was nearly 20 years ago i think the current government has got every reason to say that bizarre things that should be if you would have been saying that they're open for business they've been saying that actually let's meet up on share and exchange views and opinions i think generalizing the process of what happened maybe up to 5 years ago up to maybe even 5 months ago when robert mugabe was still in town is rather unfair to zimbabwe look he there's a lot of money to take out of the economy because of the sanctions but he is of the fundamental problem is that this is about land reform it's also

a bit about austerity measures that have been introduced that have also hurt the economy another thing was reintroducing the currency which hasn't helped as well to what extent does the government look at that and say will we need to also change change course. i think when it comes to issues to do with austerity that is absolutely right when you look at sudden aspects of fiscal policy and programs yes . but when you look at blunder from wonderful more settled in the year 2002 and that is a settled matter that even those above in a position agrees and i don't see that as a position changing anytime soon it possibly would not necessarily change and it was the right course of action by the suburban government of the time clearly there was a program or a game changer you know if i may say so the u.s. and the british mainly were fundamental parts to sanctions against apartheid south africa in zimbabwe those days saying sanctions heart the ordinary people the same
12:12 am
has actually happened in zimbabwe and to me as someone who's covered africa for over 20 years i am beginning to review my position whether or not sanctions globally with this in cuba and syria is the best way unless it's targeted except on military because generally economic sanctions i think it hard the vast majority of the citizens whichever country it is josaphat yana thank you so much for joining us . well they've been protesting guinea over potential changes to the constitution there that myal our president alpha condé to seek a 3rd term in the next year's election several opposition politicians and that a government demonstrators have been jailed in the past priyanka gupta reports the protesters marched in their thousands in guinea's capital conakry moment the they are angry about a possible cost issue change that they see will push me into a dictatorship the people are accusing afrikander off wanting to hold

what president are drawn has been calling terrorism out he's been speaking specifically on the issue of the kurdish general who many senators in the united states have vouch for and want him to be granted a visa so you can come to the united states the turkish stance on this is that the turkish justice ministry once and to be arrested gentlemens doom who they say is actually shane is wanted for crimes inside turkey a nato army he's been carrying out attacks and there's an interpol red notice issued for him so it is a fluid situation diplomatically and on the battle lines despite a cease fire although the guns predominantly have fallen silent but fighting continues on the ground. in the united states family friends and political colleagues all ring the life of congressman alija cummings at a funeral service in his home town about 4000 mourners filled the light democratic politicians on church in baltimore cummings was a key figure in the impeachment inquiry into donald trump's presidency former

12:41 am
this way so that's all we're focusing on the scene that a lot from the past and i see that a lot from the past so as well we have been successful. england have already learned their lessons from a group stage exit 4 years ago victory would put them 80 minutes away from a final against either south africa or wales. on the chance to walk in the shoes of 2003 when it jonny wilkinson he ses england coach joe johns has got his players believing everything he was mostly players on about everything but i feel like you know what the limit you know the stars remember we can be we can be from what you can read about it though to do that it's not easy and i think he sees given that probably the players use eland and england avoided playing each other in each of the tournament so they have one with no recent world cup history to look back on they'll have to be content to make their own on saturday. paul reste al jazeera.
