2:02 am
next year the system would allow countries or companies who exceed their emissions levels to buy credits from those who don't are testers have been frustrated by the lack of progress and full of countries including the u.s. china and brazil have been blamed for stalling the talks our environment editor reports from internet. it was a relentless log of endless negotiations whole blocks of nations working adults with a seemingly impossible goal of an agreement acceptable to all and when a cold came it was no a near enough for many observers you know i'm not happy i don't think anybody should be happy when you look at the forces outside these halls where people are in the streets it was 8000000 in september you have impacts happening from australia to germany and you have science that is becoming more compelling and more and deniable and the and the things that they have predicted are actually more conservative than what we're seeing now i think it's time for real action we can't
2:03 am
just rehash what we agreed to 5 years ago. in the year of mass climate protest it's not surprising that direct action found its way into the exhibition holes in madrid given the chasm that exists between what science says is required to be done and the snail's pace of progress from national delegations the star of the climate movement home did on the science and why is it so important to stay below 1.5 degrees. because even to one degree people are dying from the climate crisis. because that is what the united science calls for to avoid the stabilising the climates so that we have the best possible chance to avoid setting up universe to build chain reactions to grab his words had no effect conference it should have ended at 6 pm on friday went on through the 19th to saturday and on into sunday sleep was a scarce commodity. but there was it in policy of the article 6 part of the text that deals with carbon markets the poorer nations saying they were being cheated by
2:04 am
the united states australia saudi and brazil you have the floor. this was because of a vision we are not seeing the ambition all the references to science is has gotten weaker all references to enhancing the and the seas have gone it seems we prefer to look backward and looking forward we need to address this issue for those who've been part of the global elite calling for action this is been a big disappointment it is really disappointing to see that we've had our for you because i believe escaped in telling us that they were happy about actions and the fact that to create awareness for climate change and then we come here and we get the opposite of what they say is so disappointing the argument here in madrid has been relentless and many are now questioning whether this multilateral approach is fit for purpose so in one year's time the crucial climate summit is in globe where
2:05 am
national commitments to cut emissions most much the sun's otherwise many believe we face runaway climate change and the clock al-jazeera madrid. says he was disappointed by the final declaration but he won't give up on tackling the climate crisis this is what he tweeted i am determined than ever to work for 2020 to be the year in which all countries commit to do what science tells us is necessary to reach carbon neutrality in 2050 and a no more than 1.5 degree temperature rise and by middle groups have accused the world's richest nations of showing little commitment to tackling climate change they call the deal watered down and weak and he say it's now up to the european union to push for progress. it seems that evil known used to be the leader. we want to be and we we're going to be and that's what we are doing we want to have a climate people to fight with 2050 and we will still be some green be and
2:06 am
now we are working on that because we want to build our economy and sustainably. still we wait we need to understand that we don't we don't have a plan b. . is from the grantham research institute on climate change in the environment she told my colleague warren taylor the majority summit was disappointing but not a total failure. the most important outcome that wasn't that it was the agreement on the rule. of the markets is what i mean that that was a kind of a framework the idea was to give incentives for people to cut their emissions what was it that was so important about that goal so the idea of carbon markets is to provide an opportunity for nations which caught emissions below the goals that they have committed to achieve to sell carbon credits to other nations or to companies to help them achieve a mission with actions and i think the major point of disagreement and in
2:07 am
motherhood was the strange and serve those roles so some countries wanted them to be more flexible while others are good that they should be environmentally and socially credible so i mean is there any i mean obviously that has not been back to next year is there is that each also to be any different in a year's time well i think the idea is that the next intermediate conference of the potus subsidy by this which will meet and born and may that they will take up this issue i think the expectation is that as the urgency of the issue rises next year because qantas in the next year called a conference of the parties in glasgow will be the most important climate change summit since parasitism and so everyone has to come up with mom targets and i think the expectation is that there will be more pressure on governments to be mom vicious security forces in lebanon have fired tear gas and rubber bullets at people protesting for a 2nd night outside parliament which has started out as
2:08 am
a peaceful rally against the toughest crackdown on anti-government demonstrations in 2 months the violence comes just hours before members of parliament are set to meet to choose a new prime minister or testers are demanding an overhaul of a government they accuse of corruption and sectarianism to no one has more from beirut the. second night of violence in central beirut tear gas was again used by security forces to disperse protests. stairs who are outside parliament square they're gathered here in a show of defiance a day earlier parliament police used what amnesty international described as excessive force against an overwhelmingly peaceful protest many now fear state intimidation against the leaderless protest movement is growing. i don't think it's possible for people to see. the way that the way that they treated protesters yesterday and kind of turn a blind eye even if they were afraid it seems like they understand that unity
2:09 am
numbers are really what. dana was among the dozens of protesters beaten up by security forces during saturday night's confrontations the worst since the uprising began in mid october both sides accused each other of instigating the violence there are fears this could be the beginning of a new phase in what has largely been a peaceful opposition movement. seems to be a decision by those in power for the army and security forces to confront the protest and this is dangerous from the start of the uprising the army took a decision not to be harsh with the protesters but the situation has changed in the past few days politicians are making it clear they won't stand down and agree to the focus this would mean giving up power benefiting from the sectarian a system of government by a choice the space of resources. to support in their communities but instead.
2:10 am
bargain hung themselves over the makeup of the next government the lack of government makes it difficult to pull lebanon out of its worst economic crisis in decades which is why the protests began we're not going for weapons needs we're asking for all we need for hospitality for our hospitals for our medication. to eat to have job old people here with a jobless. old people who are working they are having their salaries this is another life the. their calls for change are not being heard politicians seem to be sending a message that they are ready to use what ever means necessary including force to protect their power center for their beirut a monday deadline is looming for iraq's president to nominate a new prime minister. a step down after more than $400.00 people were killed during

egypt and others who back war khalifa haftar are on thursday to final offensive to capture the capital tripoli after 8 months of fighting on the outskirts. turkey signed a military cooperation agreement with libya's government last week it's already supplied drones and other weaponry and us president says it's in the regent's interest to end the conflict adel blames the lack of progress on the un backed government. is he to be ahead today if we look at what's happening in libya over the last few years and why the government there is not being able to have real free will speaking frankly it's because it is hostage to the. militias that exist in tripoli in the meantime every country is dealing with the situation but based on its own interests it is in our collective interest that this region goes back to stability. as director of the turkey project and senior researcher at the center for strategic and international studies he joins us from washington d.c. via skype thank you so much for your time so. early one has indicated before that
2:16 am
he would do something like this but why now why being so forceful about this now when this is a follow up to the meeting that you had where they let me prime minister. the prime minister where it was government there in tripoli was the satirized back on november 27th but i'm sure agreements were signed during that visit to sample one was for the elimination or peace continental shelf line between turkey and libya which expanded the potential economic zone of turkey and the 2nd was apparently 'd a military grievance which underlying the support that turkey a previously been given to the period of many governments and yes there are forces and. this new meeting which followed a number of statements by missed out on that if necessary would send troops so
2:17 am
libya well it certainly is up in the attic what's in it for turkey. as i said the agreement that is signed with our panel there were fresh. it is. because it forced were given turkey extensive. rights in the eastern mediterranean and at a time when turkey is asserting its right to look for gas around cyprus and to the south of greece this agreement is that extreme about it one second mate from the very beginning all of the arab spring terms that relations were. where the individuals who come to power in tripoli and together with tucker they were in on one side against the forces who as you said in the intro by backed by egypt and the u.a.e. 'd and interested me also membership so what are the implications of that and the
2:18 am
way that you just laid out what the 2 sides are. when it was a potential for an escalation of the of the conflict that's already going on. there has announced. that he intends to chip in i'm saying that some time that he has been able to do so there are stories that is there not a more and more on mercenaries that incents from russia were the best you know of the russian governments to turn the tide on the other side there are reports. of a small turkish maturity advisory in tripoli and supplies of turkish arms including drones which are helped the government in tripoli the whole line now is. continuous is sold as seems likely and turkey continues through. to live up to its commitment there is danger of an escalation of this pumping which might turn into a regional issue are you surprised at this that the sap conflict has dragged on

2:26 am
a security breach demonstrates to weakness of president how does government it's quite setting up the kind of political tension that exists till in between had a government and those who actually participate in how to do that kurdish and in yemen says quite interesting to see that there's still some some deep divides in that it's leading to this kind of confrontation i don't think we expect them to series 3 ever again i think it shows how very. have already took power or even traction president how do you actually able to wield in yemen in particular in the south where he stood with to have more more power given the fact that he's actually come from audience and therefore it's it's it's really his home ground he's critical base that it's getting thinner by the day it's quite possible that they really show a statement condemning the you intervention but then again i don't think it's going to do anything funny thing i think is just going to prove once again that president had has very little power if it will in yemen and in the south in particular even
2:27 am
though an agreement with actually brokered way south. and that he's positioned towards the south and traditional council and southerners dimona to to actually have to session continue to to placate presidency and actually it would his position even even more so i don't think that it would be in his best interest actually say anything new i think it would be a bit more pragmatic on this paula to actually try to find a political solution with the u.a.e. and try to figure out why is it that people continue to defy he's he's president but i don't think that on the ground he would be able to do much if at all. so add on al-jazeera a bit to dampen demonstrations how trying to give people more to say in the future . ah i. fly because it's probably the heaviest carbon footprint that we create as individuals. to help save the

2:30 am
perspectives and new insights to challenge and change the way we look at the world . al-jazeera world. on al-jazeera. in a world where journalism as an industry is changing we have al-jazeera are fortunate to be able to continue to expand to continue to have that passenger drive and present the stories in a way that is important to our theories. everyone has a story worth hearing. and cover those that are often ignored we don't weigh our coverage towards one particular region or continent that's why i joined al-jazeera .
2:31 am
watching al-jazeera let's take a look at the top stories right now the u.n. secretary general has described a climate change summit in madrid as a lost opportunity after delegates failed to agree on several contentious issues talk song global carbon markets have been postponed until next year's meeting in class. security forces in lebanon have fired tear gas and rubber bullets at people protesting outside the country's parliament the demonstration began as a peaceful rally against saturday security crackdown one of the most violent since anti-government protests started 2 months ago. and dozens of protesters have been injured in new delhi after police shoes tear gas and baton to try to disperse crowds us as another vehicles were set on fire during a demonstration against a new controversial citizenship law holes of closed and ballots to gauge what changes people want to make to chile's constitution the government using the vote
2:32 am
to try to cool down weeks of demonstrations about rising living costs and inequality a referendum on the constitution is due to take place next year. newman joins us live from santiago so it was here it's almost kind of crowd sourcing a little bit what you want in the and the constitution was there a lot of participation. there was rachelle then let me just clarify one thing this was not done by the government quite the contrary this was organized by the municipalities the the mayors of the whole country quite to if you like against what the government had originally wanted the presidents of us jumping into had resisted agreeing to a new constitution despite the pressure on the streets he finally said ok you can go along with it and there will be a referendum a binding referendum in april at towards the at the very end of april but in the meantime what this does is gauge the mood say does it tell the politicians the
2:33 am
congress and the government of course what it is that people want and what they are asking for and that includes a new constitution because from what the numbers have shown so far there is overwhelming support for a new constitution that would be done with it with the delegates completely elected from the citizenship rather than half the legislature lawmakers and a half elected from the citizenship but at large and the other thing it says is what people's priorities are and what we've seen so far is that they won't better public health public pensions better education and after that there is a whole other list a wish list if you like but these are the priorities for chileans which isn't surprising but if this is not more it's not politically binding or legally binding it's considered morally binding given the large turnout so yeah exactly so even if it's not really
2:34 am
a sanction and thing would it not be who leaders to really pay attention to what people are saying they've made it clear what they'll do if people don't listen. exactly that's exactly what this does it may not stop all the protests but it does give some people in outland a form of expressing themselves and this is a little you may find it surprising the very very 1st time that the citizens have had some kind of direct and organized import to say what it is that they want to say what it is that they are protesting about although you can you know there are organizations left wing right wing parties different people saying what people want but now it is the people themselves in each single municipality in each single neighborhood that can say themselves exactly what are their priorities and if they aren't listened to we know as you say what they're capable of doing ok i haven't sent out the c. a thank you or as of age or a man is an academic focusing on chile at the university of cambridge she says although non-binding the vote could send
2:35 am
a strong message about what the public wants. in one way it will move the process forward we will it will mean a push in a symbolic way right in the in and on the other hand in a very concrete way it depends on how many people go to vote it's symbolic terms because they do we'll resend a letter of what people want to something very important that will happen it will be happening this week which is the mechanism or the minimal make innocence for the vote in next april and in mexico tobar and then if it wins in the next october 2020 below there will be another election regarding who will be taking part of the convention to write a new constitution so yes it is not binding but it's a big push for something that is happening this week that will determine the outcome for the next real election in real binding election of april in which
2:36 am
people will go to the polls and say ok we want to new constitution or no and if we want one we will want it in a 5050 percent of people and representatives parliament members of the parliament or handed percent of people elected in october 2020 delegates of has president is facing arrest if he returns home even morales his replacement at around president and a non yes' says he'll be investigated for sedition and terrorism and plans to issue a warrant for his arrest in the next few days or alice has been granted asylum by argentina after initially fleeing to mexico following protests against his reelection a special envoy to afghanistan says he is monitoring the taliban after an attack on an american military base north of kabul talks between the u.s. and the armed group were put on hold following wednesday's attack near bhangra mer base but washington says its hope for peace talks will resume soon vaal has more from the doha former u.s. envoy zillow zalmay khalilzad has been speaking. zalmai how did the u.s.
2:37 am
envoy to these talks spoken. earlier today in this forum no cameras were allowed so that speech was not recorded and was not transmitted live by the media but he said basically that he basically he committed or issued a warning to the taliban that's one of these warnings that you know regular warnings to the taliban's whenever there is a hiccup in these talks this time around it seems to be a measure to the attack that was a far cry from the attack in september in which several soldiers were killed this one only 2 civilians were killed days ago so he said we are watching taliban and we are watching their behavior and these talks depend on the behavior by the taliban afghanistan has changed there are many parties plea in the conflict in afghanistan and taliban have to know that they have to behave if they want these talks to succeed so he gave that warning but i said it is measured it's very clear that my
2:38 am
this time around seems to be willing to understand that there could be problems of coordination between the leadership here that is negotiating in doha and some of the field commanders who give orders for attacks inside afghanistan and. the overall picture of things here is that there is hope of these talks this time around is going to i'm going to go ahead sometime in the near future. top democrats and the u.s. house of representatives are making last minute pitches to republicans for why they should vote to impeach president trump it's happening ahead of a vote in the democratic led house which will set up a trial in the republican controlled senate. i would just say to my republican colleagues who appear to be on the verge of shirking their constitutional duty if they're prepared to say that a president and states can simply say no to any congressional subpoena and tie up the congress for years in litigation it is going to have to accept corruption malfeasance and negligence misconduct in any future president democrat or
2:39 am
republican are we really prepared to go down that road i think this may be the most serious of the articles because it was would fundamentally alter the balance of power and allow for much greater misconduct in the chief executive the country. he is openly seeking foreign interference in 2020 election and he poses a continuing threat to our national security and to the integrity of our elections to our democratic system so we cannot permit that to continue. as there are tons these in washington d.c. this is the democrats are having little success in their attempts. absolutely no evidence that those arguments are having any any impact on republican members of congress are a solid block against impeachment in fact actually i'm sure they're talking about precedent interesting lee any precedent that republicans are talking about is the normalization of impeachment donald trump and republicans saying look now that when we get the house of representatives as a democratic president we're going to start using pietschmann perhaps more often
2:40 am
now that the democrats have done this meanwhile as for the wider public as a whole the opinion polls have remained steady despite these constant arguments 505050 percent in favor of impeachment 50 percent against impeachment or frankly don't care we saw the democrats are trying to get republicans on board with impeachment but actually it's it's some democrats who are on board with impeachment we have a congressman from new jersey represents a rural part of new jersey who had already said that he intended to vote against impeachment on wednesday who is likely to join the republican party in the coming days he had a meeting with from the white house about this on friday this is partly due to because because if he does vote against impeachment as he's expected to do he's likely to face a primary challenger in the democratic party this will avoid that problem he may face if he stays in the democratic party but he's not alone in the democratic party at least maybe 2 others maybe more may vote against impeachment in the democratic
2:41 am
party in the house and in the cellar to talk of maybe 2 senators who will vote against impeachment so that means that when this is all said and done when the senate acquits donald trump as they're expected to do in january not only can the republicans say that he was vindicated but they can also say look the only moment of bipartisanship is when some democrats voted against impeachment. syrians who fled the last remaining rubble help province say homes and hospitals are being attacked indiscriminately 18000 people were reportedly displaced from middleaged in just 24 hours last week syrian artillery bombardment and russian air strikes intensified despite a cease fire and yet the displaced are living in desperate conditions in camps near the turkish border i mean what is director of the middle east and north africa bureau for the u.n. refugee agency speaking at the doha forum it all my colleague hala more and more nations need to help protect displaced people. the international community needs for responsibility sharing to really transform many of the river you compact
