foreign ministers in washington. the main issue for foreign ministers at this ministerial in washington was what to do to keep isis from restarting its presence in iraq in syria and in other parts of the middle east there's a general agreement that even though. he has been killed by u.s. forces that his idiology is still very attractive and so what the members of the global coalition have to figure out is what sort of military support what sort of diplomatic support what sort of financial support should be given to countries that are considered vulnerable so that isis cannot enter rate into their societies and then start controlling parts of their territory the other big issue which came up what to do about foreign fighters there was a general agreement that countries in the region may not have the judicial capacity to actually try and to imprison those who took up arms on behalf of eisel there was
1:09 am
a general agreement that these people need to be sent back to their home countries and prosecuted there there's also however the question of rehabilitation and reintegration into their home societies and it's not just for the people who took up arms on behalf of eisel it's their loved ones their spouses their children people who may not have been involved in the active fight but who could face stigmatism or ostracisation when they return to their home countries a very big problem a very expensive problem but it's one which the members of the coalition agree they have to work on and they have to work on through. at least 4 people have been killed in the iraqi capital baghdad in the latest anti-government protest 62 others have being treated for injuries many of those choking on take gasol hit by rob

1:11 am
ways of combating corruption would be taken up in the parliament that doesn't seem to have happened it didn't happen yesterday despite the presence of the head of the united nations assistance mission here in iraq today we're told it has not happened as far as we can tell what we've been told by some officials is that there was a draft law that was completed by the president's office with regard to electoral reform that was then given to the head of parliament rather the cabinet and then it has gone to the president of parliament and that it will be discussed at some point we just don't know when and that's one of the reasons the people that day after day continue to protest despite the threat of violence and that's one of the reasons they keep coming out. well now police in chile have used a water cannon on a large crowd protesting in the capital santiago as anti-government demonstrations continue for the 28th straight day protests began in early october
