canadians. sway deepest condolences to those who are mourning the loss of a loved one. or should have never been arrested in the 1st place and on the run the foreman a son of scholars go it says he fled because he was the victim of a conspiracy. on top story the u.s. president donald trump says iran appears to be standing down after a series of air strikes on iraqi military bases hosting u.s. troops the strikes were in retaliation for the assassination of the top iranian command accustoms in the money he was killed in a u.s. drone strike in baghdad on friday mr trump said he'll be imposing new sanctions on tehran until it changes its behavior white house correspondent kimberly haokip reports. with the u.s.

and iran edging dangerously close to war president donald trump proclaimed that tehran appears to be standing down truck gave no indication that the united states intends to strike back hours after iranian missile attacks on 2 bases used by the u.s. military in iraq we suffered ok. all of our soldiers are safe. and only minimal damage was sustained at our military bases it was a stark contrast to the president's threats of retaliation without hesitation that have dominated his twitter feed in recent days instead flanked by top advisors and generals trump made a surprising suggestion that members of nato to become much more involved in the middle east process it was an astonishing claim from a president who once called nato obsolete he also encouraged u.s. partners and allies to abandon the j c p

a way an agreement put in place in 2050 and by world powers to live it iran's nuclear program we must all work together toward making a deal with the rain that makes the world a safer and more peaceful place however truck didn't ounce new sanctions would be coming without giving specifics he also left open the possibility of diplomacy speaking directly to iran's leaders he insisted the united states desires for iran a great future one that you deserve one of prosperity at home in harmony with the nations of the world the united states is ready to embrace peace. with all who seek it but missing from the president's speech evidence that the u.s. killing of iranian general qassam solomonic was justified and necessary to prevent an imminent attack on americans it's evidence opposition democrats are demanding

from the trumpet ministration also absent a clear strategy something the administration has promised to provide in closed door briefings on wednesday to members of congress including top republicans iran didn't just take an off ramp it took a u. turn because they know they have no capability to fight against america at least based on the presentation that was made. it does not meet what i consider to be a threat but if president trump chooses to respond by sending even more soldiers to the middle east he breaks a major campaign promise to pull the united states out of what he once called it's for ever wars can really help at al-jazeera the white house. line not to washington correspondent john hendren i guess john one of the takeaways we haven't really got into is the way the mr truong has been signaling to the other signatories to the j.c. going by its 2015 that he would like them to say yeah it's dead and buried as well

. that's right he specifically urged russia the u.k. france and germany to abandon that agreement work together with the united states and iran a new good new agreement that he says would allow iran to prosper more and is that kind of talk the focus on moving forward with a kind of a new agreement that allowed pretty much everybody in to breathe a sigh of relief the president said that iran had stood back but in fact the united states seemed very grateful not to continue this confrontation any longer this is a country that has been at war in iraq and afghanistan since 2001 in 2003 and president trump was the guy who said if you elect me president i am going to pull us out of these wars and just days ago he said the united states will not be leaving iraq despite some reports to the contrary but what people weren't satisfied

by apparently many people that is was the administration's explanation of why they killed a custom. just days before that strike. on capitol hill many democrats said that they were unconvinced by the evidence that was presented by the cia director the defense secretary the head of the joint chiefs of staff among others and they said that they did not receive the information that said that there was an imminent reason to kill sulaimani because american lives were immediately at stake and some republicans joined in mike lee was one of them i had hoped and expected to receive more information outlining the legal factual and moral justification for the attack that was left somewhat unsatisfied on that front which i would add was probably the worst briefing i've seen at least on a military issue in the 9 years i've served in the united states senate. what i

found so distressing about that briefing was that one of the messages we received from the briefers was do not debate do not discuss the issue of the appropriateness of further miller military intervention against iran and that if you do you'll be emboldening iran. and john in a few hours we should be hearing from nancy pelosi because she's quite unhappy with the the legal strictures inside which the administration is trying to work using legislation going back to what 20012002 instead of doing it formally within the normal strictures of custom and practice. peter that's exactly right the ability to declare war is supposed to reside within the congress they are supposed under the current constitution to to be able to carry out a military conflict and authorize the president in doing so and yet every military confrontation that has happened since 2001 in 2002 has been done under those

declarations most recently that 2002 declaration authorized activity in iraq and the fact that that was used to assassinate an iranian general upset a number of people mike lee that you just showed there was one of those people so. clearly the administration is battling on capitol hill and one of the things it's going to battle is nancy pelosi and the democrats in the house who are offering the war powers resolution tomorrow they say that is tomorrow here in the united states on thursday and that would limit the president's ability to carry out any kind of military activity with iran the president is generally allowed to care under the war powers act of 1973 to carry out strikes or military action for a limited period of time generally 48 hours before consulting with congress about that congress is not happy the democrats in particular about the way he has done that so there are bills not just in the house but also in the senate and those 2

republicans spoke out earlier mike lee was one of them but also rand paul was another one they both said that they would support such a resolution that means the democrats only need to get 2 more republicans on their side and they might be able to pass that through both houses peter ok we'll leave it there for the moment john we'll talk later i'm sure but thank you assad pigs in tehran with reaction from the iranian capital. president rouhani has had some strong words for the united states he said the united states should know if they commit another crime even if it is a threat that they would receive a decisive action from the armed forces also we've had the supreme leader. speaking in a rare live broadcast usually there recorded and then put out on state t.v. but he had a live broadcast to speak into followers he said that yesterday's missile attack was

a slap in the face for the united states but military action alone wasn't enough and that the u.s. presence in the region needed to end but we've also had a response to what do the nato secretary general secretary general who condemned iran's missile strikes against u.s. forces divides reve the foreign minister said that those those attacks were an illegal and he said that the nato had done nothing in the region except for destruction and instability but also the foreign office spokesman has said that the nato had become a tool to justify u.s. u.s. crimes and terrorism so we're still having some very strong language come out from iran despite donald trump saying. that iran is standing down iran also released video footage showing them assembling the missiles and those missile strikes and again trying to appease public opinion here people have been out in the streets

over the last few days asking for revenge over the assassination of qassam so the money. now loud blasts have been heard in the iraqi capital baghdad on wednesday night 3 rockets fell inside the pebbly fortified green zone which houses government buildings and foreign missions causing a fire no casualties were reported. the other major story we're reporting on is the crash of a ukrainian passenger plane in iran the boeing 737 when short. after takeoff from tehran killing all $176.00 passengers and crew among them $63.00 canadians is. the passengers and crew of flight p.s. 752 didn't stand a chance. minutes after takeoff the ukrainian international airlines flight from tehran to kiev went down in a city suburb recovery teams pick through what's left of the plane from people's lives. most of the dead are rainy and more than 60 canadians were also

the country's embassy in tehran initially blamed engine failure for the crash later remove the statement. the approaching we made the decision to suspend all the activities of all ukrainian of the asian companies in iranian air space until the causes of this tragedy become clear. the crash comes amid heightened tensions across the region following a u.s. drone strike that killed top iranian general has them seller money in a sign of worsening ties iran's civil aviation authority says it will not give the black box flight recorder to u.s. plane make a boeing for analysis it's not clear which country iran will send the box to night possible the safety audit and it had no accidents whatsoever so there i really do ciccolella boxes is a very very good airline but i do believe it will be mechanical or possibly it might possibly be a terrorist act it's too hard to tell at this stage the crash is a major setback for boeing would struggle to regain trust after the grounding of

its 737 max and craft following 2 fatal accuracies within 5 months. the boeing 737 is one of the most popular aircraft in the sky with a good safety record investigators must now to term in how and why so many lives ended here. al-jazeera. a canadian prime minister just intruder gave a news conference about the crash just a few hours ago he said canada expects to have a role in the investigation ukrainian airlines plane just landed in toronto from kiev according to the airline there are 138 passengers who weren't on that flight because they died in the crash this song or day comes in the wake of deeply concerning events in iraq canada condemns the missile attacks launched by iran last night i am relieved as are all canadians that all personnel deployed in iraq

the united states 1718 years ago every single hour i sent troops so with the nato forces in afghanistan because people were worried america might worry about afghanistan and not be concerned about about nato in europe so i suspect given what mr stoltenberg said the nato secretary general and half a sentence today there will be an effort to get a bit more nato engagement in the middle east but frankly i don't expect to see it happen in the u.s. mr trump has ironclad positive statements about the united states loves nato the united states is firmly committed to nato which so far has not been willing to do nato works to a great extent because virtually all the allies are on the same page they were during the cold war and even today with a couple of outliers turkey being the most important there are certain common ideas

common his sister e common traditions none of that exists in the middle east you're never going to get all of those countries working together certainly not if you're not prepared to include israel as many of them aren't and certainly not if you don't find a way to depressurize relations with iran and again get iran and gauged. turkey and russia have called for a cease fire in libya to be implemented by this coming sunday the announcement came shortly after of a lot of new putin met with russia. in or greater pipeline in istanbul stop boston reports from istanbul. the leaders of turkey and russia use the opening of a major gas pipeline to highlight improved through elations between the 2 countries but destroyed turks stream project that offers an alternative route for russian gas to be delivered to europe via turkey was overshadowed by events elsewhere the s.s.

problem on the ground which they're facing and my in benjamin not to push any technology to them but my intention is to look for a solution you know which this technology can bring because this is ubiquitous and something which is very cheap in india why dear will any available at a very cheap and affordable places if there is something you think from a problem point of view which we can address something that could be done is going to like. that is you know sort of. going to move in with it's moving hard to get into that information i can give this this is the time it is going to be and we have to start thinking and maybe of feel vizard is something which is much more needed to validate our thoughts. this is. such and starts by setting up a facebook page to help research from these problems. particularly interesting leads come from the huge southern state of under president bush.

of storytelling in state capital hyderabad stories travel fast people cross-pollinate ideas and experiences could form a share ideas in the same way for inspiration such as calling on the honey bee network. for 25 years honeybee has been gathering up ideas and inventions from farmers entrepreneurs and scholars across the world. to monks they help with peyton's. ending and spreading ideas on the internet so such as calling on the network's pretty good diego nation to see how honeybee works in under a pradesh. like real pleasure sitting here because i have read a lot about i mean it was there is tremendous hidden knowledge in the villages are the grass roots level and they have the ability to solve their problems to great

to tell their stories share them questions. doubts anything then they are stuck. back into any such in steam work with volunteers who've offered to help build his story sharing life. how we can close the small by last saw your time problems often spotless so could see. a picture and then click on it the idea that settling on is to use pictures and voice recordings instead of text so all weekend you know the bus system which is cobol. they can share they can learn and they can build there and you know when.
