sad how do you resigned as prime minister leading to a caretaker government the economic crisis started long before the protest movement and much needed economic reforms are on hold all the politicians baker asked is going to be part of the interim governing body and the longer that goes on for the more serious situation. sami attala is an economist he says the country could not afford not to have a government right now essentially where we actually have. an evaluation capital controls in place that this is unprecedented so we could effectively that our standard of living will be shaken and next few months where by in fact you know is this is my post because you know the parties are going up the political deadlock means nothing is being dealt with on friday the world bank urges lebanon to form a cabinet within a week everyone is worried for me the biggest fear there is the un 33 you have no

idea what to do when you don't know everybody i talked to is it is getting caught. under the beds and people are just waiting and scared. the country is at risk of bankruptcy and currency collapse the result we're told of decades of poorly managed economic policies and didn't demick across the board corruption stephanie decker al jazeera. un experts say it's highly probable an airstrike on a migrant detention center in libya was carried out by a state allied to warlords after the draft report declined to name the country but have ties allies including the u.a.e. and egypt the attack in july near the capital tripoli killed more than 50 people and injured more than 130 others the draft u.n. report also says the u.a.e. jordan's 2 don and turkey violated an arms embargo on libya. now 25 years after the signing of a peace treaty between jordan and israel the jordanian government has refused to

renew a clause that allowed israeli tourists and farmers' visa free access to 2 large stretches of jordanian territory that area runs along the border between the 2 countries as bernard smith reports it's a sign of the deterioration of what is an important relationship. there may be a peace agreement between jordan and israel but it's under considerable strain. so these are some of the last israeli tourists to walk across the border without passports to visit jordanian sovereign territory that's been owned and farmed by jews for almost 100 years jordan is not renewing a 25 year deal that granted privileged access and i guess we'll lose some of our income that we could puts makes a living from these lands and we've got a deep emotional attachment to the area. israel got vital security cooperation

along its longest land border when it signed the peace treaty in 1994 our very midst to see this very become the very obvious jordan's king hussein and his people were promised political and economic benefits so they were not material objects i think it's true that if there'd been progress on the palestinian issue it would have helped with a way to tional jordan i think jordan was also disappointed with the economic benefits that it hoped to gain from the peace treaty there was talk of one stage that we would have one airport in the south of and so forth jordan israel and israel decided that we didn't want to proceed with that. then 12 months ago as farmers cultivate a crops that take years to mature the u.s. recognized all of jerusalem as the capital of israel and jordan's economy continue to struggle everything combined to intensify jordanian public opinion against israel. what's important for jordanians is the ending of this agreement because

they don't want any relationship with israel ending it was an easy way for the government to respond to the demands of the street there is no sympathy for the peace agreement with israel because jordanians believe that had no benefit from it perhaps the most important crop the fruits of peace has failed to take root here jordan's foreign ministry has told al jazeera that the ending of the deal means they got their land back there is no indication though as to who will farm this land in the future and the israeli farmers have said that they hope that can be some sort of new arrangement that will allow them to continue using this land burn its red al-jazeera on the jordan israel border angola merkel has used their pet or moment in germany's history to urge european leaders to defend democracy the chancellor has a close connection to the fall of the berlin wall 30 years ago she comes from the eastern side that was once under communist rule tahmina cain has more. germans remember a joyous moment which many thought might never happen the removal of
