for you. it's really. a u.s. demand for the reimposition of u.n. sanctions on iran is ignored by world powers. that are from doha everyone i'm come all santa maria this is the world news from al-jazeera student activists in bangkok of challenge the monarchy the symbolic clock declare in thailand belongs to the people. so i think we're going to start the brushes extremely. we'll have a nominee for. president trump says he could choose a successor to supreme court justice ruth bader ginsburg as early as next week.

more arrests in belarus as protesters marched for another day calling on the president to step down. so the u.s. has broken with the all other permanent members of the u.n. security council and declared so-called snapback sanctions on iran america's major allies britain france and germany have already written to the u.n. to say sanctions relief will remain in place all of this over the iran nuclear deal which washington pulled out of 2 years ago and so the other signatories say the u.s. can no longer or no longer has the legal power to force through any changes diplomatic editor james bass has more. it's aroud it's even pitted the u.s. against some of its closest allies and it's now over 5 years since the iran

nuclear deal was signed in vienna joining the negotiations the us team under the leadership of the then secretary of state john kerry devised a mechanism called snap back if iran breached its commitments all international sanctions could snap back into place but that's not the way things played out the united states will withdraw from the iran nuclear deal it was the u.s. under president trump that pulled out of the deal 2 years ago. despite this in objections from the rest of the international community the u.s. still argues it could trigger a snapback the one thing that the previous administration got right is they created provision where under u.n. security council resolution 2231. any one of the nations identified there had the right to say we want the sanctions that were in place prior to this that moment to snap back and that's what will do the rest of the world have ignored the u.s.

declaration and in some ways more important than snap back is what happens on november the 3rd but one of the diplomats who negotiated the iran deal told me even if joe biden is elected president on that day getting back into the deal might not be that easy i don't think it's as easy as some people have made it out to be that president i'm certain i want that yes and then everything we go back to school and see how i think actually you're i mean on certain points you argue that the man out in station or the sanctions or other countries may see the united states issues coming out of. your ass so i think it's going to be much more complicated than just . yet diplomat. behind the scenes a great deal of pressure was put on the other members of the security council to support the u.s. position only one country the small nation of dominican republic did whatever

washington says it seems that the plan to snap back sanctions has failed james. at the united nations that's running through some of the reaction 1st of all from the russians they are signatories to the iran nuclear deal deputy ambassador to the u.n. tweeted this it's very painful to see how a great country humiliates itself opposes in its obstinance delirium other members of the un security council he goes on to say the security council rejected the u.s. demands as a legitimate last month also france's ambassador to the un's commented saying the european signatories of the iran of the iran nuclear deal remain committed to its implementation he says un sanctions on iran continue to be lifted. and i said bake in tehran any reaction coming out of there. well the rain reaction has been pretty much consistent that is that the united

states is in no position to reimpose these sanctions or even trigger. back mechanism because they're no longer part of that 2015 nuclear deal that devolves reef the foreign minister here was speaking last night now he reiterated that point but there does seem to be concern from the iranians about united states unilaterally actions such as stopping iranian ships now iran has warned if that does happen iran will respond we don't know how they will respond but just remember where iran is located geographically through that strategic strait of hormuz where 20 percent of the world's oil passes through and its most narrow point is around 39 kilometers long now has been a military buildup by the united states in the region and this all is a potential for a miscalculation by iran is consistent they have warned that if iranian ships are stopped there will be a response and that is troubling but also here on the streets we were talking to

people and they say the situation is already bad there's already sanctions against iran on their banking sector and the oil sector inflation is all time high the economy is struggling and the currency has lost a lot of its value so people are saying how bad can it get but there's also that concern that actually it could get far worse. iran is concerned there will be no sanctions. 18th of october the arms embargo the import of arms embargo will be lifted iran to buy and sell weapons ok so there'd be a bit of speculation about how iran might respond what about support for iran does it have other countries on its side. well iran has russia and china on its side and if the united states had been successful in that resolution putting it forward it was expected that russia and china will veto it now as far as iran is concerned the europeans are not really in support they they believe that the europeans not really standing up to what they call u.s.

pulling is making them really a part of u.s. action they want the europeans to stand up to the united states and iran is relying on russian and china's support they also expecting once the arms embargo is lifted to buy weapons from those 2 countries so in that sense they do have support and they have to run has consistently reiterated that the united states is isolated then here in iran that's seen as a massive victory for them. in teheran with all of that thank you for that. to other news and protesters in thailand have continued their calls for a reform of the political system and even the monarchy demonstrators placed a plug in the park next to the grand palace and blown call tens of thousands of protesters also called for the resignation of the prime minister it took power in a coup and then one disputed elections last year when hey as more from bangkok.

well the significance 1st of all is the location where the protest was held tens of thousands of people turning out on saturday and where this park has been place. which is the park that you mentioned just across the road from the grand palace it's a historic site it's been the scene of many royal ceremonies for centuries and it used to be a place that was open to the general public to use during the day as well but in recent years that's not been the case it's been off limits to the public so the protest leaders made it clear that that was one of their targets they wanted to retake this park for the people and that's exactly what they did and in the early hours of sunday morning they dug up a section of the concrete in the park and place this plaque into that area and now the significance of the park itself is that it commemorates the 1932 revolution that turned thailand from an absolute monarchy into a constitutional one so the plaque says that thailand is for the people not just for the king 3 years ago an official plaque in another location nearby mysteriously

disappeared overnight so that was seen by many certainly the protesters here and that as another sign that the king was strengthening his power and perhaps turning thailand back into an absolute monarchy again. in the united states people are mourning the death of supreme court justice ruth bader ginsburg but a bitter partisan battle is also brewing over the implications of her passing just weeks before the election president trump says he will nominate a woman replacement next week and senate majority leader mitch mcconnell insists he'll hold a vote before the election many say that's not consistent with his refusal to allow then president obama to name someone back in 2016 john hendren has more. president donald trump says he will appoint a woman next week to succeed justice ruth bader ginsburg who died on friday to the u.s. supreme court it will be a woman

a very talented very brilliant. with trump's rival democrat joe biden insisting that the next president should name a successor the nomination battle puts ginsburg at the center of yet another supreme fight even after her death let me be clear that the voters should pick the president the president should pick the justice for the senate to consider trump might face obstacles within his own party in a statement republican senator susan collins said i do not believe the senate should vote on a nominee prior to the election but republican leaders in the senate which confirm supreme court justices have vowed to move quickly i think they'll pick someone who is ready to hit the ground running as they say ready to go before a. senate moments notice and begin to circulate on capitol hill and it courtesy calls for the death of the supreme court justice just $46.00 days before

a presidential election has the republican senate majority leader mitch mcconnell parsing his own words after refusing to consider then president barack obama's nominee for $237.00 days today i am nominating chief judge merrick bryant garland to join the supreme court at the time mcconnell said the election was too close to approve a nominee. well appropriately revisit the matter when it considers the qualifications of the nominee the next president nominate whoever that might be now mcconnell has vowed to go ahead even though this time the vacancy occurred less than 7 weeks before an election only one nomination has come closer to election day that was in $1064.00 now ginsberg's name is attached to another struggle this time over her successor john hendren al-jazeera chicago.

joseph uta is a professor at texas a and m. university's campus here in doha where he specializes in the u.s. supreme court and says that the republican party controls the senate it's not a certainty that a trump nominee would be confirmed. the leadership of the republican party of the last 4 years or any god will be as aggressive as possible and using the product of their office to move forward with a nomination from the white house and the confirmation from the senate but of course not all republicans are in the same political circumstances and not all of them are equally on board with the president and his agenda so i think the large majority of republicans will be eager to fill that seat and hold a confirmation hearing with a vote but it would take only a small number of defections of republicans who are either facing difficult reelections or have principal objections to ignoring the rules as they argue for so recently in 2016 and that might the rails

a quick response to justice ginsburg asked there's not a democrat in the white house they don't hold of a majority in the senate so aside from campaigning on the issue both in the presidential election and in the senatorial campaign that are ongoing and trying to use public pressure to peel off his little republican voters in the senate there's very little they can do the question becomes if the president is exceptional and filling the seat and if you move the election what will the democrats do in the next term to try to undermine. your midnight judges. in the news ahead a reprieve for american uses of the chinese talk on the eve of a ban in the u.s. there are some conditions though we'll have a look at that and. its worst floods in a century we'll hear from people in sin just who want the government to help now

and stop it happening again. and there is a fairly quiet picture across much of the middle east well into bits and pieces of travel really nothing more than that the winds have been light and they'll stay fairly light as well through sunday maybe just a little bit stronger through the interior of iraq so we could just have some sound picked up but you'll notice we have got a few showers that are all evolving across into central west as a turkey to become more widespread as we move on through monday is that the cloud also begins to spread across much of the country on towards the caspian sea again those showers could just travel into more northern areas of iran temperature wise you go 44 in baghdad on monday and 36. has been about this level for the last few days feeling a little bit humid but to even say not too bad a tool for september then into central africa lots of activity here. and again with

abusing a few more of those further south into more northern areas of angola but when you have further to the south it really has been about the winds coming from the interior and how much is have been well above the average devotes juana on the north east of south africa along the coast we could just see some fairly brisk winds developing on monday and that will keep things a little bit cool there but it does begin to improve in botswana temperatures coming back down close to the average a similar scenario across in johannesburg. competent be. taken without hesitation. died for our. power defines our law as little babies were dying i did it look. it's look like the babies today people in power investigate exposes and question the

use and abuse of power around the globe. on our dizzying. roof. top stories this hour on al-jazeera the u.s. has broken with all other permanent members of the un security council and declared so-called snapback sanctions on iran but america's major allies britain france and germany had already written to the u.n. to say sanctions relief would stay in place. thousands of protesters and timelines are continuing to call for reform of the political system and the monarchy place to park next to the grand palace in bangkok declaring thailand belongs to the people.

and americans been gathering outside the u.s. supreme court to honor justice ruth bader ginsburg has died at the age of 87 president of trump says he will nominate a woman to replace her as a partisan battle begins to fill the 9th seat on the course. so the better routes now where police have detained more than 300 people at a women's protest they defied a crackdown to march against the government in minsk to demand the resignation of president alexander lukashenko that's after last month's disputed election. one step son was there and saw the arrests happening in minsk it was. after a massive thanks and self last week rally the women are back here on the street women have been driving force 1 for these protests in bollywood since the very start 3 women were the opposition leaders 2 of them have fled the country oneness

and think tanks and so now we are the women here thinking over and they are still praying and shouting for look at can resign. police now after arrived women are running away they are trying to hide into their shops and restaurants here in this area of panic and i. would feel. as if we have. tens of women by now have already been put in the detention vehicle some of them quite aggressively you're pushed inside they keep pushing the press away all the time as well they also have of course been detaining journalists over the past weeks as well so everyone has to be really careful here some women are really emotional some are crying and shaking out of fear because of course these man up very intimidating they also have in the

past been trying to grap them actually reveal their identities to make sure that they will be held accountable for what they have done. well a growing number of coronavirus cases among refugees on the greek on the falses causing concern of these 214 people who tested positive 1st case detected at the start of this month 9000 refugees have now been moved into a new to their previous one you're just 10 days ago they are being tested before they enter the new camp stephanie has the support from the campsite. people are starting to settle into their new reality which is life in this new camp an emergency camp it's very windy today open to the one thing people have been concerned about was not being able to leave thinking that they would perhaps be stuck and they're calling it a potential jail but from what we've been seeing is people are being allowed moving in and out of the cap the authorities here telling us that people are free to move

to go and buy supplies groceries until 8 pm in the evening we've seen people queue up outside a supermarket just down the road where they can buy groceries and this is what they had to tell us about what it's like inside the camp. from all over the conditions are really bad inside there's just a tent and people are sleeping on the floor the conditions are horrible you know that all through no toilets for the toilets you have to go outside these are some of the videos that have emerged from inside the horrendous conditions of the toilet . and this is really early days when it comes to dealing with thousands and thousands of people so time will tell how this county is going to come together it's still being constructed agencies are still getting their act together but certainly the message from people inside is that the conditions are challenging what people want is to get off the island many of them have been waiting for a year for their asylum say papers to be processed for their requests to be

processed and that is a process that is going to be restarted soon but certainly the message from the authorities here it doesn't seem that these people have been waiting for so long already are going to be leaving the island any time soon. nearly 31000000 people have now been confirmed infected by the corona virus worldwide and almost a 1000000 people have died several european countries have now imposed new restrictions and in the u.k. johnson says people who break the self isolation rules will face a fine of $13000.00 sagna guy has more from outside a testing site in london. well this is one of the mobile testing sites and has been set up on this weekend in order to try and deal with the surge of corona virus infections in the u k particular what is worrying is even though they are young the people who are primarily affected by this most recent wave concern is that it will go to more

vulnerable members of society including older people who are more affected by the virus meanwhile there is more pressure on the prime minister to try and deal with this 2nd wave now last week mr parse johnson did say that to do another national lockdown would be a disaster for the u.k. but he is coming and more pressure not just from his own party but also from other leaders around the u. k. scottish leader nicholas sturgeon as well has asked that an emergency meeting be chads to deal with this the effects of this latest wave and also the mayor of london city con has called for more guidance from the government but this is going to be the weekend where boris johnson is going to have to consider exactly what he's going to have to do that couldn't tell further local lock downs as well as

more severe social restrictions including non mixing of the households together. president omar trump says he will approve a deal to allow the social media app to talk to keep operating in the u.s. he said an agreement with a tech from oracle and supermarket chain wal-mart to take over the american operations of the chinese owned app would get his blessing the white house has put pressure on the company over what it says on national security concerns. at this stage a ban on new downloads has been delayed by a week. had some thoughts on larry maggot tech analyst and senior of connect safely dot com who explains why trump has given this deal the green light. well it means presumably if it means that he stays with saying it's on an on again off again that oracle would run at least the data aspect of the us operations in oracle of course it's very good when it comes to online security they don't have any experience with

consumer products but of course wal-mart does so perhaps they'd oracle wal-mart combination might make some sense but remember this is a product that he is primarily by young people teenagers and very young adults so having a enterprise business related company running it could be problematic if oracle were doing it all by itself i think it's mostly political although if i were trump i'd be careful about alienating so many young people who use a kick talk many of them are voters but having said that i think it's partially its relationship with china and partially in the fact that it is at least the a radically corsa bill for a bike and the company that owns the cock have access to a certain amount of data from us innocent so the issue is will oracle make sure that the data doesn't get into the chinese hands and if that's the deal that china might make some of the money but not have access to the data and that could certainly address u.s. security concerns coming as president has called for his venezuelan counterpart to be prosecuted as a war criminal even j.k. made the announcement jurgen joint news conference with u.s.

secretary of state mike pompei oh he's on a tour of south america and china as a supporter. the u.s. secretary of state mike bombero came to south america to strengthen an 18 month campaign of economic sanctions and diplomatic pressure directed at the president of venezuela nicolas maduro on eve. eve. he received firm backing in colombia the final leg of his 4 nation tour from president to van the colombian leader highlighted a report released this week by united nations mission on venezuela alleging unlawful executions in force disappearances of which we detentions and torture. using international justice we should go ahead and as i said many years ago denounce nicolas maduro to the international criminal court but no during his 7

the response from the government has been very weak for the past 3 years we've been begging the government to reinforce the flood defenses but they didn't we went and spoke to everyone from the local authorities to the national government and still nothing. that was floods 400 years in sudan completely destroyed most homes in this neighborhood the government has defended its response so far saying that it's been handed by international economic sanctions as well as the shop full in the sudan is pound a one here but i know what bad you know who do what at that our house with the 1st one to be flooded in the neighborhood we were asleep we could only save our lives everything we owned got swept away sudan's rapid deployment forces of sprayed insect sights on pools of stagnant water to kill mosquito love but given how widespread the flooding has been it's almost impossible for everywhere to be

disinfected the destruction will fall isn't sulphuric latrines by the floods also is a great bend to the population you know and i guess it's like unicef are now helping the government run the budgets to help scientists to deal with and it all breaks. up one of the numerous comes for the displaced in syria units of medical stuff immunizing children against missiles and other communicable diseases the health care workers say they are doing everything they can to avoid outbreaks is cutting up our nutrition said roylance. now at collecting was getting. to be honest some by any and as you know and also to detect early. monitors in case and to take them into the phase that they need. to meet the government in recent days issued new allots to communities living on the banks of the nile that rains in the highlands of neighboring ethiopia could did to flush

reimpose these sanctions or even trigger. mechanism because they're no longer a part of the 2015 nuclear. the foreign minister was speaking last night now he reiterated that point but there does seem to be concern from the united states unilateral actions such as stopping iranian ships in iran has warned if that does happen iran will respond protesters in thailand continue their calls for a reform of the political system and the monarchy a place to park in the park next to the grand palace and. demonstrators are also demanding the resignation the prime minister. and one disputed elections last year . it's been gathering outside the u.s. supreme court justice ruth bader ginsburg has died at the age of $87.00 president trump says he'll nominate a woman to replace her as a partisan battle begins to fill. more than 300 people at a women's protest they defied a crackdown to demand the resignation of president alexander lukashenko following
