10:34 pm
are. going to have them as it is what if they didn't change if you hear her latest hasn't there was my dad this is part of i want to tell you to go home but you already have. stressful being an ethiopian right now since this time around we're hoping that there will be a little less heat and a whole more or a home or not night into the conversation so where are we right now we have government forces in tikrit that's the northern part of ethiopia saying that they are now in control the former ruling no cool party t p.l.f. has now been on the cover and they said they've launched a guerrilla war so right now is this the end of the war. or just the beginning i know unusual already jumped into the conversation every day ago on tweeting you are sending us your thoughts your ideas your experiences your knowledge you know what's to you if you're watching right now on the cheap jump into the comment section of today show. after more than
10:35 pm
a month of fighting to grow with all the associated disruptions to our communication and supply lines the situation is very concerning we've witnessed a large amount of internal displacement large numbers of injured both civilian and military and we're very concerned about hospitals who dangerous a lot of medical supplies doctors are being forced into decisions about their countries now they can treat them and have to leave out of that access for humanitarian agencies it's not good to sure. it's essential to get medical supplies through to these hospitals as soon as possible. well perspective from inside ethiopia and now 3 perspectives film ethiopian 2nd highest welcome back to the stream i see you're wearing your scream uniform appreciate that introduce yourself to our audience around the world. so my name is a cut as i know i'm a freelance journalist with vice media and as
10:36 pm
a very recently al-jazeera. thank you for joining us as i as welcome to the stream introduce yourself to the global audience. thank you very much and i mean. i am a recent graduate of the universe of california berkeley school of law i am a legal professional by trips by without one california thank you very much the news i welcome good to have you and your honest welcome to the stream tell everybody here on review to. hi my name is your highness a good i'm a professor of political science going to college here in lawrenceville georgia the atlanta. so this question that we are asked as we go into this discussion is has the come to ethiopia ended oh is it really just beginning as a reporter as a crisis what are the clues that tell you that it's either over or it's still going on how the piece that together particularly it's hard to get access the northern
10:37 pm
part of ethiopia like now. well i mean as a fur november 20 minutes earlier men declared conventional military warfare had concluded with the european armies capture of the regional capital of any. despite this there's they're still. there still hasn't been an opening up of the region to independent analysts and journalists and there is still communications blackouts in the large part of the majority of the region so if there was and a true end to the conflict. now would be known and i would have been the time for journalists like myself and a lot of my colleagues on the ground to be able to go in and properly assess the extent of the damage. speak to those who bore the brunt of the casualties and to get a good look at what the infrastructure damage looks like however that that exists
10:38 pm
that permission has not been granted as of yet and the government is still pretty chilling independent coverage of the conflict or as they were portrayed in the course to conflict. and as long as this continues we'll be able to accurately assess if as the government says the conflict is as well then truly winding down. so prime minister abby aren't in any seems very confident that the war was over it was any going to be a couple of weeks it is done now looking up at school reform how do you reach that confidence that he's succeeding with what may well be happening on the ground. the conflict is major in a federal government a very large and subsidy to the country and against the local government of its own and these local government which has been laid by to be l.a.
10:39 pm
has been training 10 is in tens of thousands of special forces and militia forces that eventually attack at the northern command of the armed forces so bringing that up is because even if for the n.d.a. if. you know it was possible to reorganize itself start somehow from scratch and defeat disease in the south raised arms against the government the parisian in a jewess says may not be over because criminals have to be friended law and order has to be restored in a way that gives confidence for the government to actually invite journalists and aid workers to be able to visit visit their agent so you know without completing that i think it will be very difficult or premature to say that it is complete also commission or warfare as the chorus just say it has been successfully
10:40 pm
in that in that the government is in a 100 percent in control of the region. i'm looking here they say it's an arm slim says what is eritrea military doing in t. cry i'm going to fry that teeny sayas do you have knowledge of that is that true. thank you very much our 1st i just want to correct. some narratives 1st a great regional government is an elected government it has it was a sad list based on a popular election there is a limit to mexico government and has a strong support among the ground's enjoy school and conditional support of the gray you know according to the to grand regional government spokesperson more than 250000 army men and women men and men women in uniform are defending to grey so we have to know that it is a legit government has
10:41 pm
a very strong popular best come into question eritrea is involved in this war and there is a credible evidence to prove that for example europe and. there are a panda bear jim dead europe and company that research and security of egypt confirm that era trance are actually participating in this war and also there are thousands of their return soldiers who were captured during this war so there's no question there's no doubt about the air tran's involvement in this war and that makes the conflict and international conflicts just go back to egypt now you know i says all all signs indicate conventional war is a loser they're poor so the t.p. l.f. leaders cule captured for several days so this is going to need it the problem is when an area is closed down how do you get that real information and then this is how al jazeera is reporting right now if he appears average denies insurgency emerging into guy 2nd he suffered it's.
10:42 pm
ok so that's me. yes it's open government has stated that. as i mentioned earlier operations are winding down and it is concluding. operations integrate however currently phone and internet access has only been restored to parts of to gray which are under ethiopian army control. and these parts these cities and towns are actually very limited all of the grazier to have been governments going. ok well the areas that we are able to access by telling by telephone and internet are limited to several towns. to establish contact the town with residents in the town of my cut up as a very recently. but until this day relatives family members have
10:43 pm
been unable to contact their loved ones in the regional capital of mechanics for instance home to half a 1000000 people. so without this without this ability to establish contact with those on the ground i would not be able to independently assess the claims and counterclaims whether it's the government being 100 percent of in control of the region or what he said the alleged alleged reports of eritrean troops in iraq and this is a difficult. conversation going to find out what it meant at 1st 1st after that i have asserted declared that he completed the mission the 3rd and final mission of this operation or or i call it war the era through the or i mean the air to ground forces were able to shut down. mc 23 jet so that shows you that were brought the prime minister telling telling us this conclusion accurate and also defaming that as that is not. what that than to
10:44 pm
a what i mean if you actually look at france 24 see where it they exported this fake news it was a video clip that was taken from a video game that is just 11 for our conversation here well as i said is just let me let me general general anyone as. human as i want to me or not but i'm going to come straight here as as i move on and this is because as me deep late 00 whether the conflict in ethiopia is over or just beginning one sign one clue that it is not over will be refugees people flee now home and guarantee syntax. that is a clip if everything was fine if there are no war they would still be sitting let me bring in the force and then you can come in right off the back of this this is chris metzler he's a senior external relations officer at new and 8 c. this is what he told us and you have a listen we are united nations high commissioner for refugees are very concerned
10:45 pm
about the ethiopian refugees in sudan. almost $50000.00 of them across now the or are. you in a shock rushed immediately to this region to help but the people have lost everything. in more uncertain stream of concerned about the original refugees who were before his you were talking about 96000 people all saw out of the. different camps in region. with suppliers and we were looking to help them get. this is a situation where that if huge is very heart breaking one person displaced is for me one to money but the government has also stated that. you know you know for citing sources from the united nations supermajority of the
10:46 pm
city if you reduce houghton to be teenagers and young i mean who tend to be participating in the war 'd itself in the conflict there were former militia and special force members but now that the fact that calm is a salute slowly returning to right and given the fact that it be has been experiencing the situation with i.d.p.'s interlinear the south korean central parts of the country i don't think 405-0000 even though 'd it is significant in the highest would it be difficult for the to have been a government to manage injury settled at a set of the reintegrate them and helps them. you know return to the a lot of my life so i don't think it will be hugely challenging but what is very critical is a branding some criminals 'd may be hiding among is that if you just more speed most important cities also mean how participated in the massacre that took place in
10:47 pm
my car again is that the people in that region are mad correct so 1st i think mystery. this concern in the facts there is not factual proof that this referee just are former members of the 2 grand a force this is in assuming facts and 1st and foremost this is not a lot for a small portion of our law enforcement operation does not kill people it doesn't. risky people does not grant cities destroyed infrastructure invite a foreign country to invent runs on country calls nearly $50000.00 people to seek refuge in a foreign country invade and terrorize people rocky mountains but on the mediterranean it's now if you had offered it to the arabs that are a nice guy as that is how it is very proud rover and mate primarily no not imagine we've been together about. how you guys are going to ensure that your issues in general any premier agents and i don't i don't he hired me i don't hear you i don't
10:48 pm
hear you when you when you speak over each other so i'm going to ask you your hands in one sentence what is your kush macas i need to question. ok went it to be a spokesperson actually accuses if you're going to piss off a stealing doris you know something that they are making up because this is how design this out is they just have to say something that's just that's just very childish and really not true what we should be concerned about is that the us is if the oxy billions and what we see is us to feel it started to has grown as a starter territory to what they were doing was massacring it all based on their identities but if you're going to government actually has been given these toll of 72 hour you know a time period just to actually lay the ground militias and special police force members to consider surrendering and returning to back to their low life that is
10:49 pm
a very good at intimate image going out or something and then we know something as well it is significant gently nonissue you had your sentence thank you very much let me bring up something that you would think would be one of those who was that goes around that couldn't possibly be true have a look here at my laptop this is the headline ethiopian forces fly at the un team and aid groups seek. access is that shit it was absolutely. callous financed by a government spokesperson and this is what a government spokesperson said about the instant that happened have a listen. you know some off their urine staffs well actually in some ways why it might not happen. these companies not know months and it was a government it only has difficulty in the us so they went on and in some offering as they were not supposed to move but they invented isms and. the
10:50 pm
kind of intimacy expedition science when you hear that. the only sound is the government spokesperson was saying that the un team were going hiking in there to glen nineteenth's where as they're trying to help people who who need assistance right now what can you tell me one of the instances we know where people are maybe family maybe friends that you have in the northern part of ethiopia ethiopia tells us how bad the humanitarian crisis is right now. take you very much so 1st the the that's phosphorescent of the federal government is admitting that the federal government to get there has shut that shop the ed workers so that a stock that itself tells you that that the government you know how much criminals there the program government is even shooting out the aid workers and we kept when
10:51 pm
comes to the air to humanise around effect there's this very enormous amounts of people are starving there is not access to any health service including one of the major hospitals in the capital is closed people don't have access to any kind of house facility starving artist and thousands of people migrating to sudan i can go on and on that the humanitarian crisis is it's very significant a mere counter here. very. of course of course going on sure sure there is a security framework in the country that prevented this you know free movement of people in organization as you know we don't do the analysis aid workers because of the fact that a state of emergency has been declared in that area for about 6 months we just finished the 1st woman so we have actually 5 months so that respecting international law in abiding by international institutions in the values in
10:52 pm
tradition is that we are formed of this international institutions does not mean that they can actually roam around right disrespecting the law that's actually in place right now and $100.00 says what you want lohan is they said that but you had but you had us though i mean i haven't either no no it isn't national oh you know you're a rather. for america raise your running. mate all right everybody how to everybody the phrase run around that feels particularly insensitive and that we let me show you why not this is this this this is a refugee who now is in sudan he was separated from his family i want you to hear his voice how this added difficulty about we have lost everything and it's been very difficult to sleep or we are still suffering and thinking about our family who have. been at home and they're always asking me about their mother and sister and i
10:53 pm
keep giving them hope that they may have found a car to travel to central to great and that they're probably safe but i give them how. i actually have a c.e.o. criticizing the u.n. for being in what you would say probably the wrong place at the wrong time has some new cheap source for you say do you respond to them that says i'm doing forsman is not an excuse for killing innocent people and displacing 50000 civilians what would you say back to beth yanis. that's a very excellent question and thank you for showing that clip this the displaced if you can brother as well my heart breaks for him he's my brother is mightier than brother and i care about each and every european respective of it's in a city or it's and it got into the whatever you call it but what i want what i was trying to say was that it's so much in sensitivity and emotion 'd is that we have invested in that situation all right and what happened in the 1st 2 or 3 days after
10:54 pm
they did that to ground you know especially for spectacular northern command was they were actually using raid across trucks and cars right to negotiate with the strangled soldiers of the india now the european national defense forces how been betrayed by is it accommodated in our midst and have been you know eating and leaving and defending that original torn ears and wanting nobody thank you thank god i didn't leave i doubt my daughter they met in this satellite you had i don't know if you got is a link to me but it bit him let me set it right there it got there were a lot of a lot of comments like mice are going to come straight to you because i'm trying to represent the you cheap audience a. 1000 people that sharing their thoughts with you this story here at this is concerning ethiopia and aren't accused of ethnic profiling over a civil war with an another headline here just changing a few pimply seeking lists of ethnic to grains this is
10:55 pm
a you and reports you are seeing and not reporting it's. situations where it appears that there's ethnic profiling not enough to try region where that may or may not be a conflict still going on but in other parts of ethiopia so to my skin you explain what you see. yes so like i mentioned before reporting out of today might be difficult reporting elsewhere in the country has been relatively easy thus far and i was able to a certain that the ethnic profiling of. employees at if you're an airline's was not an isolated incident there has been an institutional effort to exclude grains. ethiopian workforce across a variety of different sectors including the construction and humanitarian sectors is definitely a disturbing new developments that we started noticing and maybe perhaps a week into the war and although we might not be able to establish
10:56 pm
a direct link that say between what's going on and maybe the upper echelons of power such as the prime minister's office. there's definitely we can definitely notice there's been no attempt at curbing the trend no attempt at protecting the rights of innocent or grand civilians elsewhere in the country who have no link whatsoever to the conflict no link whatsoever to the g.p.l. left but who are being unjustly excluded and just suspended and dismissed from their posts across the age of the workforce and when it comes to the sensitivity issue i'd like to respectfully disagree with the characterization made of refugees in sudan as being largely. young men u.n.h.c.r. officials i spoke to within the initial days of the mass exodus confirmed to me that they meant that. the large majority of those fleeing were unaccompanied minors
10:57 pm
who had little to no possessions which meant they had to flee spontaneously for their own wellbeing this does definitely point to their being an immediate threat to the well being of civilians in the area something that the german government has denied and i think that's the conversation we should be having. about knowing something was not being is an experience mary it's a conversation that we have been we having amongst so many issues so many issues 2nd rice esiason unionism appreciate you bringing your perspective your experiences your takes i want to leave us with these phrases of into porn day which really reminds us about who is suffering on the ground beyond the politics who is suffering the syfy to. we've seen evidence austin commission of prevention more crimes and crimes against humanity 80 crew this includes the massacre of hundreds of civilians in and around my cousin earth as well as the book stronger fiji's of other massacre is in her letter it is important to note here that these are
10:58 pm
innocent people who are being targeted because of their ethnicity in addition to there's a problem getting off the green civilians in the government's effort to the b.l.s. particularly concerning tensions which is if like you've guessed this story this conversation is not over yet but it is today on the subset of the streets are seeing its target and it's a. business leaders just want to buy the brass pot.
10:59 pm
11:00 pm
hello i'm barbara starr in london these are the top stories on al-jazeera israel and morocco have agreed to normalize ties in a deal brokered by the united states and exchange the u.s. will recognize moroccan soften t over the western sahara the un considers western sahara a known self-governing territory and the ceasefire between morocco and the polisario front has been in place since 991 the old syrian backed breakaway movement wants to establish an independent state this is the foundation on which we can now build this peace will resume liaison offices quickly between israel and
11:01 pm
morocco and work as rapidly as possible to establish full diplomatic relations we also institute direct flights between morocco in israel and israel morocco giving this bridge of peace and even more solid foundation this will be a very warm peace peace as never the light of peace on this hanukkah day as never shown brighter than today in the middle east well this is the 4th deal organized by the white house following similar agreements with the u.a.e. and sue than the white house call our white house correspondent kimberly hellcat has. donald trump breaking with precedent yet again what we understand is that this latest deal security through a telephone call between the u.s. president and the moroccan king earlier today what we know from senior adviser jared cushion or in a telephone call with reporters is what this means in terms of the normalization of relations with israel is that we will see an establishment eventually of embassies
11:02 pm
in the respective countries and also that the israeli airlines will now be allowed to use moroccan airspace with up to 20 direct flights a day as well this means that there will be deepening business ties the believe being that with the economic activity increasing this will promote stability in the region but with respect to foreign policy to do this given the fact that we are you know very very close about 6 weeks away from inauguration day where there will be a new president president elect joe biden it's highly unusual to be putting in place this kind of foreign policy in fact what makes this even more unusual is the fact that the united states is the only western nation to recognize morocco sovereignty over the western sahara so the question becomes what does this mean moving forward given the fact that this is happening at such a late stage it is going to leave joe biden president elect with
11:03 pm
a difficult choice does he embrace this policy that's been put in place or is he going to reverse it u.k. prime minister barak's johnson has warned there is a strong possibility that his country will fail to reach a trade deal with the european union negotiations have until sunday to present him and european commission chief or some of underlaying with an agreement but he's told his ministers to prepare for no deal. yes i do think that we need to be very very clear there's not a strong possibility stray possibility that we will have a solution that's much more like an australian relationship with the e.u. than a canadian relationship with the it doesn't mean it's a bad thing there are plenty of ways as i said that we can turn that to the advantage of both sides well the leaders meeting in brussels have broken the deadlock over a major coronavirus recovery package how gray and poland had initially bluffed the
11:04 pm
2 trillion dollar fund over a close linking access to the money to following the rule of law in a compromise evader say the clause will only be applied objectively to the fund and not as a punishment for separate programs lebanon's caretaker prime minister has sent via has been charged with negligence over the beirut port explosion 3 other former ministers have also been accused more than 200 people were killed in the orchestra sastre with thousands injured and many more left homeless it was caused by a huge stockpile of highly explosive ammonium nitrate which had been improperly stored at the port for 6 years those of the top stories say with us the father the son and the jihad is coming up next. the.

al-jazeera. hello i'm barbara sara this is the al-jazeera news hour live from london thank you for watching coming up morocco is the 4th arab country to normalize relations with israel in a deal brokered with the help of president trump. is the time for the public and for business to get ready for january the 1st talks in deadlock and a new sunday deadline but the u.k. prime minister warns that no deal with the e.u.
12:01 am
is a strong possibility lebanon's caretaker prime minister says his conscience is clear after he and 3 former ministers are charged with negligence over the beirut airport explosion. and 3000 corner of our stacks in a single day u.s. stock tourists consider rationing care as emergency approval for a vaccine gets a little bit closer. and the s'pore frontal champion footballer and grisman says he's anding his sponsorship deal with telecom giants how his move follows reports of the company's involvement in the so there we go muslims in time now. israel and morocco have agreed to normalize ties in the latest deal brokered by the united states u.s. president trump announced the agreement on twitter calling it
12:02 am
a great chris ault for america's friends in exchange the u.s. will recognize moroccan sovereignty over western sahara the un considers western sahara a known self-governing territory and the ceasefire between morocco and the polisario front has been in place since the 1991 field theory and back to breakaway movement wants to establish an independent state and has condemned the deal. well this is the 4th such agreement organized by the white house the united arab emirates was 1st the signing organist in september it was followed by an agreement between behind and this route both attended a signing ceremony at the white house then in october it was the turn of sudan's transitional government now with morocco there is added weight behind the trump advisor jared cushions claim that a deal with saudi arabia is inevitable well israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu says it has it helps the path to peace for the wider middle east this is
12:03 am
the foundation on which we can now build this peace will resume liaison offices quickly between israel and morocco and work as rapidly as possible to establish full diplomatic relations we also institute direct flights between morocco in israel and israel morocco giving this bridge of peace and even more solid foundation this will be a very warm peace peace as never the light of peace on this hanukkah day as never shown brighter than today in the middle east how a force that has more now on the agreement from west jerusalem promised you know in the previous normalization deals has been stressing what it could mean practically for israelis in terms of trade in terms of tourism in this instance he's been talking about the fact that so many hundreds of thousands of moroccan jews came to israel in the early days of zionism and throughout the early days of the israeli
12:04 am
state and that that is what he calls a bridge to morocco and so again he's been talking about the fact that there will be these direct flights. the people can go and find families find trace their family histories in morocco presumably that is something that has happened in the past but in terms of organized to a groups having to fly by europe him to do so independent the directly will be a major change for. israeli jews of moroccan heritage there's been obviously a very different reaction coming from the palestinian side the outgoing member of the executive committee of the p.l.o. hamas where we has tweeted that between bribery and blackmail the trump administration is in a mad scramble to do whatever it can to extract concessions and benefits towards israel well yes michael berg is a middle east analyst and senior consulting research fellow at chatham house he
12:05 am
joins us from london via skype yes in reykjavik always good to talk to you what do you make of this latest that a deal now the 4th country to normalize relations with israel do you think as a benjamin netanyahu does that this helps the path towards peace. good evening i think we definitely see that logic story of more and more countries in delusions normalising who nations. and we see the pattern here and we can expect that this would continue as long as it is in power and we see 4 different loosens and different set of interests or if you question about the peace force is really the question what the country is really a government concludes from this it is development because normalization of relations different in international relations and development we like to see more countries normalize relations but if you sort of conclude that it gets what it want in terms of acceptance in the middle east and there's no interest in making any
12:06 am
concession in the peace forces which i think the current israeli government this is going to be there who she is one thing i would expect if another government space is space it will feel more confident while it's. less hostile and violent there and it would be more confident to make these kind of concessions because of course traditionally had always been a longstanding demand by arab countries that israel would get recognition if they gave up land for a future palestinian state obviously we see these 4 countries that even though some have paid lip service to the palestinian cause obviously that's not what their actions are do you think that all of this will stand wine when trump is no longer president because for example the situation with morocco is something doesn't just involve the u.s. and iraq oh there are other players as well do you think all of this will hold when trump is no longer president. i think the money is a should we say i don't see biden they want to in this to change their legal basis
12:07 am
for this country to mobilize in this commonality of interest in the guns and ammo we feel is a. question of the biting of an installation will put its agenda if this course is between israel and palestinians and hence actually to use this discharge which is that radical change in the middle east you know the 2 to live in peace but not peace the style which is politicize everything between these aling palestinians but justice which includes all the outstanding issue of palestinian so that i'm a nation as jews there is that of course sort of thing there something that a few gee issues and they don't leave the settlements and i think this is up for the body ministration to see whether it was kate at any time and energy to assume
12:08 am
so i mean you've called this at vatican changing in the middle east looking beyond the israeli palestinian conflict how do you think this changes the balance i suppose in the middle east but also you know we're looking at north africa with looking at africa with sudan how do you think it changes the balance there's just such an olympics of the region is no doubt he's changing and he certainly is becoming 2 feet and yet again one of the one of the issues of course is the israeli palestinian issue which is the how to fit in this is even if you israelis is awful joy about about this kind of the militia doesn't take away the necessity to sign peace humans into resolve the issue of the palestinians but the other issues of course is iran because those countries signed this no one is a shoe nations with refused also say to spout all of the airlines to to come to london in there that aggressive policy is. 100 syrian let me know and of course the
12:09 am
nuclear issue which also when it was too late followed by the installation to see what carmel's its strategy is going to devise is of the heart you know samantha burke senior consulting research fellow at chatham house here in london sir thank you for sharing your views with us. ok let's go to the united states now and speak to mike hanna who is live for us in that washington d. c. a so we were seeing president trump do quite a lot in his last few weeks in office now another country normalizing relations with israel jared kirshner saying that all of this presumably leads to saudi arabia normalizing relations with israel what do you think is the thinking behind donald trump in pushing through all these deals. well jerry cushion has been central in this particular deal it's believed that he's been negotiating with the moroccans for some 2 years to come to this particular point and yes he has been pushing saudi
12:10 am
arabia to normalize relations with israel as well but certainly president trump rolling through a whole lot of initiatives in these weeks leading up to the inauguration of the press office the president elect joe biden clearly wanting to get as much stacked in to what president trump would see has his legacy of the past 4 years in office this of course is a total reversal of u.s. policy for decades now the u.s. policy on the western sahara has been one of neutrality it's a policy that's been followed by most western countries and indeed is the policy of the united nations and international law this is a reversal of u.s. policy and certainly a question for joe biden when he takes office of whether he's going to continue along these lines and perhaps invoke anger among many western allies or whether he's going to reverse president trump's decision to recognize western sahara or morocco's sovereignty over western sahara i can there with the latest from
12:11 am
washington d.c. mike thank you. well coming up on al-jazeera at this news hour a mental health crisis in the refugee camps a report finds that many are suffering from depression and trauma a prominent to afghan t.v. presenter is shot dead just 5 years after her mother suffered the same fate and italy's world cup winning hero paolo rossi dies we'll have reaction coming up. more than 4 years after the vote to leave the leaders of the u.k. and the e.u. have given their negotiators just negotiators just 3 more days to come up with a trade deal but the british prime minister boris johnson is warning there is a strong possibility that they will fail now both sides are beginning to prepare
12:12 am
for the u.k. to leave the e.u.'s orbit with no deal at the end of this month's neve barker reports. a very real and sudden lurch towards the prospect of a no deal breaks it the british prime minister told the u.k. to get ready for the deal on the table is really not at the moment right for the for the u.k. is the time for the public and for businesses to get ready for january the 1st because believe me there's going to be change either way that we change whether it's a canada style deal or an australia style deal the comments follow high level talks between boris johnson and the president of the european commission in brussels on wednesday after a 3 hour working dinner compromises remained off the table negotiations however have resumed with sunday set as the new deadline for reaching a breakthrough with the u.k. officially left the e.u.
12:13 am
on january the 31st it's been the transition period ever since subject to e.u. rules and regulations while it tries to reach a trade deal with the u.k. falls back on very basic world trade organization terms often called an australia style deal but what it really means is the sudden unplugging of britain's economy from the world's largest trading bloc and the prospect of checks and tariffs on goods going between the u.k. and the e.u. on sunday the new deadline will be exactly a year since boris johnson returned to downing street having won a landslide in the election largely on the promise of being able to deliver bricks in 12 months all of the repeated promise of a trade deal with the e.u. though still to be on it. and now hopes of a deal are drifting away seemingly irreconcilable differences on fishing quotas business competition rules and how the new arrangements will be enforced to dog negotiations for months as a deal hangs in the balance
12:14 am
a warning from france that british citizens may need visas for stays in the. longer than 3 months the e.u. suggested it's ready to keep the continent's roads open to british trucks and let the u.k. operate flights for a period of 6 months providing the u.k. does the same but the british government promised a hard break from the e.u. come what may on december 31st without a willingness to compromise it's difficult to see what avenues are left the park out london well meanwhile e.u. leaders meeting in brussels have broken the deadlock over a major coronavirus recovery package hungary and poland which had been standing in the way of more than 2 trillion dollars deal have signed off on an agreement with the rest of the block let's go live to paul brennan in brussels so how did they finally reach a compromise over what was actually a very sensitive issue. it was
12:15 am
a very sensitive issue and really serious disputes because of the amount of money that was hanging upon it as you say the 7 year multi on your financial framework talk about $2000000000.00 sorry 2 trillion dollars worth of finance for the european union and its various programs climate change that sort of thing and amongst that 2 trillion was around 900000000000 for a recovery fund to do with the covert pandemic a combination of grants and loans now the reason why it was a dispute is because for the 1st time the european union decided certain countries decided to make the benefits of this fund conditional on what's called a rule of law mechanism i.e. those countries who are benefitting had to basically sign up to and abide by the basic fundamental principles of the european union things like freedom democracy rule of law equality and it was felt that hungary and poland with their right wing governments were not behaving in
12:16 am
a way that was compatible with those principles they've become involved with the judiciary for example they impinge the freedom of the media there's been question marks about equality of minorities now obviously the problem with that is poland and hungary have veto rights so they were threatening to totally torpedo the budget talks and they could have done it so a compromise had to be reached and the compromise was this rather than make it a political decision to trigger the rule of law mechanism it's now been decided by the germans who brokered this deal that the european court of justice would be the ones who would trigger that that's a good compromise because it takes 3 years for the european court of justice to come around to make a decision on that so it's effectively being kicked into the long grass so means poland and hungary can sign up they can get their money and if there is a dispute where years into the future yeah sir solution for now a problem with the latest from brussels thank you. lebanon's caretaker prime
12:17 am
minister has sent the head. being charged with negligence over the devastating explosion of beirut sport 3 other foreign ministers have also been accused more than $200.00 people were killed in that disaster with thousands injured and many more left homeless say in a hall the reports from beirut. it's been 4 months since a massive explosion that they were its core of this story did damage surrounding neighborhoods killing 200 people and injuring thousands. and investigation has yet to provide an explanation on what caused nearly 3000 tons of ammonium nitrate to explode. but for the 1st time senior officials are being charged. the caretaker prime minister has sat along with 3 former ministers are accused of negligence gibbs says his conscience is clear and that he has no intention of being questioned again he's now the 1st
12:18 am
prime minister in lebanon's history to be charged dad was forced to resign days after the blast but later returned as caretaker he was only in power for a few months when the explosion happened that's why some are questioning the judicial decision that the state is protecting itself and the clearest indicator truth out is with that accusation current prime minister they also accused 3 previous transportation ministers lauded articulate sponsible for the pork but failed to accuse the 3 previous prime ministers who've been in power since 2014 when the my trade i'm on your shipments going into lebanon so it's very clear that this has been a very selective accusation by the state which includes the major 6 political parties and their leaders. deb repeatedly acknowledged receiving prior warnings about the dangers posed by the ammonium nitrate but he wasn't the only one. so far

low and mid-level employee at the port and custom authorities have been charged and that is why there has been so much public anger official correspondence between various branches of government show the president the now caretaker prime minister former and current ministers as well as security officials and judges knew that large amounts of explosive material were at the port and failed to take action. it was one of the world's biggest non-nuclear explosions and for many it was the direct result of corruption encouraged by political class that governed for decades . this is not enough all this destruction in beirut is due to a history of corruption before and after him they should question all of them. families of the victims have been protesting against the delay in justice now a high ranking official is being held to account but this process could drag on for
12:20 am
years already some are saying is being unfairly targeted he once said corruption is bigger than the state senate. beirut. the united states says set a new global record for daily coronavirus that's more than 3000 people lost their lives on wednesday that exceeds the number of people killed in the september 11th attacks the worst on u.s. soil almost every state across america is reporting a surge in infections there have been more than 15400000 confirmed cases there since the pandemic began and almost 290000 americans have died after contracting the virus. advisers to the u.s. food and drug administration are meeting to discuss emergency use of the pfizer bio on take corona virus vaccine the panel will decide whether to recommend the f.d.a. issue authorization for the vaccine if given the green light millions of doses
12:21 am
could be available within days that would make the u.s. just the 2nd country to roll out the pfizer vaccine after the u.k. began its inoculation program earlier this week. it's going to pass who joins us live now from silver spring in america and so what can you tell us about that the fellow. well i can tell you that this is been going on for about 7 hours now and what's happening is i think it's easier to think of it sort of like if the vaccine was on trial and some really smart scientists and doctors were in fact the jury and the judge this is standard practice what's not normal is that there's so many media out here talking about this being the biggest story in the united states now it's also a bit unusual that they're not meeting in the building behind me it's virtual so that's had its own complications with technology but obviously with the pandemic alert they're even talking about they can't be together for that much time so what
12:22 am
you see is these independent scientists and these doctors they're really grilling executives from pfizer executives from the government there's a bit a whole lot of slideshows as you could imagine a lot of power point presentations and words that normal people probably don't understand but they decided to do this on zoom because they realize there is a hesitancy in this country to taking a vaccine a new poll from the associated press that 50 percent of adults 550 in this country half of america says they're not interested in taking this virus as you said though the cases are terrifyingly high and only going to get higher after the things get a holiday were so many people traveled and gathered indoors so we're waiting to hear from this panel it's an advisory committee now normally the f.d.a. the food and drug administration goes with whatever these experts say so there are in about an hour and 15 minutes going to take a vote if it is unanimous that is one possibility it's likely the f.d.a. will quickly turn around and says and then all of a sudden in the sea about 3000000 doses shipped out in the next 24 hours of course
12:23 am
it could be that there could be some scientists who look at one section of the data and say i need some more answers on that so that could delay the process but really all initial indications from the f.d.a. from these scientists really seems to be the. this is on the cusp of being approved and that would be a very rare bright spot in what has been a very very dark few days in the u.s. and patchy of course here in the u.k. documentations started a little earlier this week how much pressure is that put on the u.s. in general the f.d.a. the government the fact that even if they agree it now that the u.s. will be 2nd. you know i think that there was a little bit of controversy there with dr anthony fauci the lead infectious disease expert he said well our says the gold standard and then he had to come on go doesn't mean there's anything wrong with the british a standard so i really think the only pressure on the government is to actually do something to get this virus under control now there is going to be slow developing getting this vaccine out to people right now in the u.s.
12:24 am
they're focusing on the health care providers the front line workers and people who work and live in long term care facilities so that's going to be they hope about 50000000 of these doses by the end of this year that could end long with the other vaccines are coming in that could mean then it moves to other populations the most vulnerable of course being 1st but really if you look at the numbers and if you look at what the country is experiencing right now the pressure is on to figure something out the vaccine is not going to get this country out of this mess that it's in right away what we're seeing now is we're starting to see some states and some localities say ok we've got to do something about this indoor dining here in maryland they've just announced no more indoor dining up until now even with these numbers surging we've had restaurants open bars bowling alleys hair salons and they've been letting people up to 25 people gather in homes across the country now you're starting to see some elected leaders say ok this is out of control and what is the biggest concern for them the hospitals we are starting to see hospital say
12:25 am
we cannot take any more patients and it's not like it's just happening in this part of the country like it was in the spring or that part of the country it's everywhere so doctors are warning that if they don't do something dramatic to stop . it's going on right now they're going to get to the point in the united states of america where doctors are going to have to make a decision to look at 2 patients and decide which one of them gets a bad. gets a nurse. or something health care provider c is a nightmare scenario for them so they are begging elected leaders to do something to stop what this trajectory is been. pretty terrifying yeah it's a terrible decision that unfortunately many doctors around the world have had to make past equal hain thank you. well speaking of vaccines britain's medical watchdog has issued new advice the vaccination centers after 2 people developed an adverse reaction to the pfizer biotech injection it's prompted officials around the world to warn against vaccination for people prone to severe reactions thousands of
12:26 am
people across the u.k. have been inoculated since tuesday while allergic reactions are rare in any individual vaccine recipient they're not unusual during large scale rollouts africa's top public health official has blasted wealthy nations for buying more covert 1000 vaccines than they need the director of the africa centers for disease control and prevention says the continent may not be able to access vaccine doses until the 2nd half of next year cases are surging on the continent of 1300000000 people john king says fair distribution is a moral issue and governments with excess doses should give them to countries in need christine is the executive director of frontline aids and has worked extensively across africa she says there's a lack of transparency with vaccine distribution. i think the attempts are there in the systems and the mechanisms have been created to pool knowledge to pool know how
12:27 am
to pool intellectual property and to pool technology it depends on all countries playing to the same rules and i think what we're seeing right now is what many have called that scene nationalism where rich countries are buying what is available to them and making bilateral deals like a lip service to global solidarity and saying that they would participate in these global mechanisms i think there is a lack of transparency how the mechanism works we all carry a moral responsibility to ensure that when we have technical innovation such a vaccine it is available to those who are on the front lines those who are more it most it needs and that includes our you know people in africa it includes people living with hiv might have a greater need it includes from like how workers and you know it is not the time to make profit out of innovation it's a time to to save you know a global condemned. so to come on al-jazeera this news hour protests on the streets

12:40 am
a 1000000 have fled the brutal crackdown and me and lars military focused mainly on rakhine state many ended up in overcrowded camps near cox's bazaar but last week bangladesh authorities shift 1600 to a remote island and says it plans to send more now a new report says nearly 9 out of 10 the refugees have symptoms of depression that's according to $45.00 rights group and it says just over 6 in 10 also show signs of post-traumatic stress disorder while 85 percent have experienced emotional distress stephanie decker has more. the numbers are staggering it's not surprising a new report on the mental health of the regime has found that most of those surveyed suffer some form of mental health problems almost 90 percent indicated they suffered some symptoms of depression and just over 60 percent reported symptoms that suggest post-traumatic stress disorder p.t.s.d. a lot of the elements of distress post-traumatic stress disorder depression what
12:41 am
we're seeing in our research is that they are what is underlying this distress is the systematic or basic respect even the m.r. the violence experience in myanmar and the every day living stressors of being in a refugee camp so these are much more systematic drivers of distress that are much more complicated to address. during your volunteers conducted surveys of all households and in community workshops to come up with the findings there port adds that these mental health symptoms including p.t.s.d. depression and anxiety increase the difficulty of refugees to function for example just over 91 percent of those aust so they found it challenging to carry out common daily activities such as men tending basic hygiene engaging in social or religious activities or performing any other daily tasks around a 1000000 have lived in tough conditions in these camps in the far southeast of
12:42 am
bangladesh for 3 years now they fled neighboring me and maher in august of 2017 during a minute to crack down the torched villages and lead to soldiers being accused of mass killings rape and torture. earlier this year the international criminal court ordered measures to prevent the genocide of ring of muslims in myanmar genocide is a charge that has been strongly denied by me in mars peace laureate aung san suu kyi calling the events in internal conflict triggered by writing a militant attacks on government security posts but the stories of atrocities in persecution number in the hundreds of thousands each has a tragedy in what is the world's largest refugee camp the future of these people remains uncertain and now many are facing a controversial move by bangladesh government. in island in the bay of bengal 'd. most have no identity papers no home and no future that's adding to the worsening
12:43 am
mental health of young and old stephanie decker. well the un has urged bangladesh to allow a safety assessment of conditions on bash on chaar that's the island the bay of bengal which is now home to more than $1000.00 refugees the bangladesh government wants to ship more a few to the island but the un says any move must be voluntary well joe when is the executive director of the burma human rights network he joins us from london via skype sir thank you so much for joining us here on al-jazeera so from what you understand what is it to aisha like in bashan acharya this island in question and and what do you think of the fact that refugees are being sent there. i mean one of the important research for the fire as it has been now is the mental mental condition of these people. the people who are traumatized the experience genocide
12:44 am
and their living condition in the camps also very appalling and these people have been consistently and nonstop they have facing discrimination prosecutions and also living standard in that camp is not you know. the way that they have lived so they are a very huge pressure on them and also there's some kind of a criminal gangs has been operating in the camp and you know understanding why the question is why where this government has been tolerating this these gangs many not only forgive me but the bangladeshi government i guess would say that that is why they want to stop the kind of pressure that there is on these camps and that's why they are sending hundreds of thousands of people some i just want to know why why you think it's not a solution why why does not the lucian is there they're there if they're sending a few thousands of people starts right now but there are 1100000 living in
12:45 am
bangladesh there are nearly 600000 in still in burma and there are many 110100000 of arrange the other part of burma is born where is willing to how home every want every rohingya in burma impossible so why this is the you know situation happening that this is a totally wrong move make by made by the bangladesh government you know this is what exactly burmese military want these people totally go out leave burma and settle other part of burma that's that's what we are we have to we are we are cool york we have been raising these issues in several years with the bangladeshi government and their diplomats around the around the world. rowing must return to burma they have to return to burma burmese government must accept them. and they are the citizens of burma in ethnic or burma so moving these people to buzz and trial and this is not a solution and butler is going has a duty to put these people in bangladesh in the lead in their land that is
12:46 am
a very important point really need to reach to bonaire is government sending these people to do to present a is not a solution is you mention and we were mentioning as well there are reports of the i guess wholly unsurprising mental health issues that a lot of these refugees are suffering from because of what they went through presumably quite a few of them may not necessarily want to go back to me and more less they feel that they're safe there so again my question to you is what do you think that the bangladeshi government should do to alleviate the pressure and some of the camps and why specifically do you think that the island itself may not be fit for this purpose. i mean these people 1st of all come from they have been attacked and expelled from burma so their legal right there but right is to return to burma and this is a fair this is a justice for them to return to burma to get their citizenship rights to their ethnic rights you know that that is the international community must do but the
12:47 am
problem right now what's happening on international is that that this is about the political situation was happening in around the world within the metal community the will political will is getting getting you know weaker and weaker now so what the problem is now most countries now are focusing on seeing that burma democratic reform burma is a democratic leader forming country and the burma need to support obama need help but actually under this remark that this provides the burma is conducting genocide why this big picture is not seen by the international community and the main purpose of this whole thing is easy to kick out this winter people from burma and when bono this government is accommodating them permanently in the us and schilens that means. the military operation in or in hindsight has been successful that is exactly what the ability government military and burmese need you want them so on in there in the can as well what we are asking the bangladeshi
12:48 am
government is to provide more security to this range of people and allowing dimensional humanitarian organization to access there to prove to prove their been doing enough but it is not enough. you know they don't receive they are not receiving enough support from enrich our jar when executive director. executive director of the burma human rights that we're going to have to leave it there thank you for joining us. argentina could become only the surge country in south america to legalize abortion with a bill set to be debated in congress campaigners on both sides of the debate have old rallies and when this the lower house is expected to narrow the approve the law meaning it moves to the senate where an even closer vote is expected it's estimated half a 1000000 illegal terminations occur every year in argentina. let's go to theresa bull who is live for us in when a scientist said that is in 2018

12:53 am
about china or taking principles of particular positions of principle then it does potentially begin to impact upon the nature of relationships that european and world sport has we chinese business we saw last year for instance mesut ozil who of are still making statements on twitter about week of muslims in in china and as i say where we've seen particularly this year in 2020 although certainly out over the last 3 or 4 years where athletes do feel they can be very open very public in in the positions that they are taking on really important issues and they're being very vocal and not just be very vocal as well i think we've been through an era of you know the last few months so particularly in the context of the black lives lots of movement people saying well you can't just speak you have to act and what greaseman has done in this particular case in the case of the way the weakness in china is not just to speak out but is actually acting as well and this is this is an increasing phenomenon and if we going to 2021 i think we're

1:02 am
such agreement organized by the white house the united arab emirates was 1st to sign in august in september it was followed by an agreement between bahrain and israel both attended a signing ceremony at the white house that in october it was the turn of sudan's transitional government and now with morocco there is added weight behind the trump advisor jared cushion or sql aim that a deal with saudi arabia is inevitable while israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu says it helps the pass to peace for the wider middle east. this is the foundation on which we can now build this peace will resume liaison offices quickly between israel and morocco and work as rapidly as possible to establish full diplomatic relations we also institute direct flights between morocco in israel and israel morocco giving this bridge of peace and even more solid foundation this will
1:03 am
be a very warm peace peace as never the light of peace on this hanukkah day as never shown brighter than today in the middle east well mike hanna is live for us in washington d.c. my dollar from there is a president with only a few more weeks left him in office what was known about this deal with iraq when do we know if there's any potential ones in the making now. well barbara this deal has apparently been that years in the making jared question and has been pushing negotiations for 2 years now it would appear israel earlier this year was pressing the u.s. to recognize western sahara to back morocco in its claims of sovereignty this now is a deal coming together it is appears that the additional negotiations were directly between kirshner and morocco itself israel was not part in the initial negotiations
1:04 am
however it was kept informed along the way but many questions remain about this particular deal just coming as it does weeks before president trump leaves office the president elect joe biden his views on this are not known normally in these circumstances an outgoing president would discuss with the incoming president something of national importance one must remember too as well that this is a complete reversal of decades of u.s. policy which is always being aligned with most western nations and that is recognizing a neutrality in the ongoing dispute between the policy ario front and the moroccan government this is now a thing of the past the u.s. now coming down firmly on the side of morocco's claims of sovereignty this may be an issue for joe biden when he takes over he is going to have to reassure his western allies in particular that he will not be a go it alone time leader as president trump as being as the whole situation of
1:05 am
morocco and policy or a front western sahara has been within the ambit of the united nations that is where all the negotiations have been centered on and where they've been taking place but certainly president trump now says deciding to go it alone no negotiation or discussion whatsoever it would be with his western allies joe biden is going to have to decide whether he's going to accept this decision by president trump taken unilaterally or whether he's going to have to walk it back. i can with the latest from washington d.c. mike thank you. well the polish aria front itself has condemned the move in the strongest terms the independence movement 3 years aerated that it believes western sahara does not belong to morocco the announcement also came away with no warning to the united nations which says its position on the region hasn't changed james bays has more now from the us there was shock here at the united nations that this change in the u.s. position that goes against existing u.n.
1:06 am
security council resolutions on western sahara in effect a breach of international law i asked the spokes person for the secretary-general whether he viewed this as a quid pro quo that phrase that was used so many times in the impeachment of president trump earlier this year i must say that we we found out about this these developments at the same time that you did. and on the on the issue of the i don't i can't speak to you know you mentioned a quid pro quo that's a question to ask the parties the parties involved the secretary general call to parties on the ground for karm the rest of the security council are saying absolutely nothing right now they're on happy i know with the situation but they know that this puts president elect joe biden in a bind and i suspect there will be quiet pressure on his administration once it takes office in january.

more than 4 years after the vote to leave the leaders of the u.k. and the who have given their negotiators just 3 more days to come up with a trade deal but british prime minister barak's johnson is warning there's a strong possibility they will fail now both sides are beginning to prepare for the u.k. to leave the e.u.'s orbit with no deal at the end of the month neve parker reports . a very real and sudden lurch towards the prospect of a no deal break said the british prime minister told the u.k. to get ready the deal on the table is really not at the moment right for the for the u.k. and now is the time for the public and for business to get ready for january the 1st because believe me there's going to be change. either way that we change whether it's a canada. or an australia style deal the comments follow high level talks between

come what may on december the 31st without a willingness to compromise it's difficult to see what is are left eve parker al-jazeera london. leaders meeting in brussels meanwhile have broken the deadlock over a major coronavirus recovery package hungry in poland which had been standing in the way of the more than 2 trillion dollars deal have signed off on an agreement with the rest of the bloc paul brennan has more from brussels the reason why it was a dispute is because for the 1st time the european union decided such certain countries decided to make the benefits of this fund conditional on what's called a rule of law mechanism i.e. those countries who are benefitting had to basically sign up to and abide by the basic fundamental principles of the european union things like freedom democracy rule of law equality and it was felt that hungary and poland with their right wing governments were not behaving in
1:11 am
a way that was compatible with those principles they've become involved with the judiciary for example they impinge the freedom of the media has been question marks about. equality of minorities now obviously the problem with that is poland and hungary have veto rights so they were threatening to totally torpedo the budget talks and they could have done it so a compromise had to be reached on the compromise was this rather than make it a political decision to trigger the rule of law mechanism it's now been decided by the germans who brokered this deal that the european court of justice would be the ones who would trigger that lebanon's caretaker prime minister has sent via has been charged with negligence over the devastating explosion at beirut's port 3 other foreign ministers have also been accused in a heart of reports from beirut. it's been 4 months since a massive explosion that they were at this story did damage surrounding neighborhoods killing 200 people and injuring thousands. an investigation has yet

1:13 am
transportation ministers a lot about it it is possible for the pork but faded to accuse the 3 previous prime ministers who've been and power since 2014 when the might trade ammonia and shipments came into lebanon so it's very clear that this has been a very selective accusation by the state which includes the major 16 with the can parties and their leaders. deb repeatedly acknowledged receiving prior warnings about the dangers posed by the ammonium nitrate but he wasn't the only one. so far lower level employees at the port and custom authorities have been charged and that is why there has been so much public anger official correspondence between various branches of government show the president the now caretaker prime minister former and current ministers as well as security officials and judges knew that large amounts of explosive material were at the port and failed to take action it was one
1:14 am
of the world's biggest non-nuclear explosions and for many it was the direct result of corruption encouraged by political class that governed for decades. this is not enough all this destruction in beirut is due to a history of corruption before her son and after him they should question all of them men and women the. families of the victims have been protesting against the delay in justice now a high ranking official is being held to account but this process could drag on for years already some are saying is being unfairly targeted he once said corruption is bigger than the state. beirut. still to come on al-jazeera protests on the streets of gwen aside as says the country's no makers the side whether to legalize abortion and the mental health crisis in the hanger refugee camps of report finds many suffering from depression and troll.

2:01 am
still at a stalemate yes there's a new sunday deadline but the u.k. prime minister's warning in no deal breakers it is a strong possibility. in the streets of argentina's capital erupt in protest as politicians are set to vote on legalizing abortion. well in the last few minutes an advisory board to the u.s. food and drug administration the f.d.a. has recommended the pfizer coronavirus vaccine should be authorized for use the committee will meet again for formal approval but this is another step in the right direction towards rolling out an immunization campaign in the worst affected country in the world there are still some safety concerns we remember the pfizer biotech vaccine which was rolled out in the u.k. this week this is the 1st lady to get the shot health care workers in the vulnerable on the top of that list but officials have warned that those who have an
2:02 am
affair lactic allergies shouldn't be getting the jab to national health service staff have adverse reactions when they got it even so in the u.s. the panel of outside advisors to the f.d.a. voted $174.00 in favor that the known benefits of the pfizer shot outweighed the risks in adults patty culhane in silver spring maryland for us patty good news finally home the horizon maybe. yes exactly this is been 9 months and the numbers in this huge country just keep getting worse and worse of this is really the 1st glimmer of hope and i want to put it into some context about that $17.00 to $4.00 vote with one abstaining it's not necessarily that those 4 who voted against it were actually against the vaccine throughout 88 hours of testimony they heard from over and over from different what is this going through all of the stats all of the slides and there were a lot of slides it wasn't that they thought the value of vaccine was dangerous or
2:03 am
that it was a effective the debate was whether or not should be given to 16 and 17 year olds there were some members of the panel who thought maybe it should be 18 and above so they wanted to see that guidance so it really had the hearing and it was televised and put out on the internet because they want people to have faith in this vaccine because as it stands right now even as bad as things are here 50 percent of americans say they have no intention of taking the vaccine right now so that's why the f.d.a. took this very unusual step of bloody the media in putting the hearing all 8 hours of it or so for people to watch and they did watch about 15000 people it was really really hard to watch so that's that is something one of the thing i took away from all the testimony is the 44000 people in the study half the actual vaccine the pfizer says no one had to learn reaction like they had in the u.k. did they have anyone in the study that was prone to that we don't necessarily know but it wasn't one of the key findings but again this is a big step this means this independent panel scientists doctors they said this
2:04 am
recommendation to the f.d.a. now we wait the f.d.a. could turn it around tonight they could do it tomorrow but as soon as the f.d.a. says yes we agree and they almost always do then the government says about $3000000.00 vaccines of research ship it out within 24 hours ok thank you for those updates from so it was from roland that it's patty cohanim. on to other news and morocco has become the 4th arab nation to agree to normalize ties with israel the u.s. brokered the deal promising in exchange to recognize morocco's claim over the disputed western sahara region president donald trump announced the deal on twitter of course is the area on the map which up until now the u.s. and great was disputed it's that gray area western sahara which has been for to have a for years by morocco and they saw how we ethnic group israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu says it helps the path to peace for the wider middle east this is the
2:05 am
foundation on which we can now build this piece will resume liaison offices quickly between israel and morocco and work as rapidly as possible to establish full diplomatic relations we also institute direct flights between morocco in israel and israel in morocco giving this bridge of peace and even more solid foundation this will be a very warm peace peace as never the light of peace on this hanukkah day as never shown brighter than today in the middle east correspondent ari force that has more on this agreement from western incident promised you know in the previous normalization deals has been stressing what it could mean practically or israelis in terms of trade in terms of tourism in this instance is been talking about the fact that so many hundreds of thousands of moroccan jews came to israel
2:06 am
in the early days of zionism and throughout the early days of the israeli state and that that is what he calls a bridge to morocco and so again he's been talking about the fact that there will be these direct flights. the people can go and find families fine trace their family histories in morocco presumably that is something that has happened in the past but in terms of organized to a groups having to fly by europe being able to do so independently directly will be a major change for. israeli jews of moroccan heritage there's been obviously a very different reaction coming from the palestinian side the outgoing member of the executive committee of the p.l.o. hamas where we has tweeted that between bribery and blackmail the trump administration is in a mad scramble to do whatever it can to extract concessions and benefits towards israel so this is the 4th deal between israel and an arab country organized by the
2:07 am
white house started by the united arab emirates back in august in september it was followed by an agreement between behind and israel both attended the signing ceremony at the white house and in october sudan's transitional government joined in as well and now with morocco it adds weight to the claim from trump's adviser jared kirshner that a deal with saudi arabia could even happen mike hanna in washington with more on this one as ever mike it's all in the timing isn't it 5 weeks to go for this administration and trying to ram through as many achievements as possible. indeed yes and it creates a problem for the president elect joe biden who be taking over on the 20th of january president trump in the service acted unilaterally you know consultation with our lives or the united nations which is the overarching body discussing the western sahara issue this is once again a trump move taken just by himself with absolutely no consultation whatsoever the
2:08 am
meaning of this is that the u.s. position has not been reversed decades of u.s. policy with regard to western sahara has not simply been reversed the u.s. had been alongside a united nations members african union the european union had all insisted that the way to get a peaceful settlement in the region was to get a referendum in western sahara now president trump has simply turned his back on all those years of discussion all those years of policy making and all those years of negotiation that happened and there's already been a consequence of very rare criticism from a republican in the senate jim inhofe as released a statement saying that president trump has traded the voices of the people of the no voice for this particular peace deal really critical of president trump for taking this action for reversing u.s. policy now the question is when joe biden comes into office whether he just follows
2:09 am
along with what president trump does which could well anger many of his allies or whether he attempts to reverse a situation which could imperil this peace deal my canner in washington d.c. thank you. also joining us from washington d.c. william lawrence who served as a senior diplomat and an analyst in several african countries currently a senior adjunct professor lecturer at the american university thank you for your time. william. morocco gets this recognition from the united states so i guess they're looking at it going finally someone does but it doesn't really mean much does it the fact that one country albeit the united states decides to recognize this sovereignty claim no and give the 1st century we're all recognized in iraq including there were $65.00 countries there it was legal to shoot or in each of the moroccans plain and siding with marco only united states is
2:10 am
recognized explain leapfrogging ahead of a u.n. process which is going on for a long time now and sidelining the international law concerns. the population of the palestinians inside lines in order to get this done before the junket ministration was there any sort of morocco israel relations you know when i look back on these pos deals which of happened we know are that israel and the u.a.e. for example definitely had a relationship before this but what about morocco. yeah around 20 percent of israelis are american or change and the 2 countries have been strengthening relations sometimes formally sometimes conformably or some years now and something like 50 to 80000 israeli tourists come to iraq or here and i've met with a lot of them and they always tell me to seem thing we have no idea market was like
2:11 am
this and then we say that a non-musician is fine on its own merits it's fine for the emirates it's for behaving in its final pursuit and it was even legal for the transitional government to do it but the last inning nice and for the boycott the palestinian completely pushed aside as as have the queens of the solomons can the moroccans use this to their advantage and say hey look the united states as has agreed or does it not again count for so much given it's from a president who's only got 5 weeks left in the job and it's clearly on a mission to just bring as many countries on board as he can oh definitely well there are 60 countries that are so that lean towards iraq one of the countries that lean against the rest are in trouble but there are those that lean towards morocco some of which are include gulf countries that have put constants most states are will. be moving probably towards recognizing morocco sovereignty independent of.
2:12 am
the u.n. process it's also important the u.s. has a free trade agreement morocco and for years have not been a blanket was of this will open up trade in horror and u.s. assistance programs throughout the region a very poor region of the world which moscow again will use to tell the world look at the americans can work here is right when lawrence pleasure talking to you thank you for your expertise on this topic we appreciate it. now more than 4 years have to the vote to leave the leaders of the u.k. and the a you have given the negotiators just 3 more days to shore up a trade deal british prime minister barak johnson warns there is now a strong possibility they will fail so both sides are beginning to prepare for the u.k. to leave the e.u. is all but with no deal at the end of the month this report is from the baka. a very real and sudden lurch towards the prospect of
2:13 am
a no deal breaks it the british prime minister told the u.k. to get ready the deal on the table is really not at the moment right for the for the u.k. is the time for the public and for business to get ready for january the 1st because believe me there's going to be change either way that we change whether it's a canada style deal or an australia style deal the comments follow high level talks between boris johnson and the president of the european commission in brussels on wednesday after a 3 hour working dinner compromises remained on the table negotiations however have received with sunday setters the new deadline for reaching a breakthrough with the u.k. officially left the e.u. on january the 31st it's been the transition period ever since subject to e.u. rules and regulations while it tries to reach a trade deal with the u.k.
2:14 am
falls back on very basic world trade organization terms often called an australia style deal but what it really means is the sudden unplugging of britain's economy from the world's largest trading bloc and the prospect of checks and tariffs on goods going between the u.k. and the e.u. on sunday the new deadline will be exactly a year since boris johnson returned to downing street having won a landslide in the election largely on the promise of being able to deliver bricks in 12 months all in the repeated promise of a trade deal with the e.u. though still to be honest. and now hopes of a deal are drifting away seemingly irreconcilable differences on fishing quotas business competition rules and how the new arrangements will be enforced to talk negotiations for mums and in a possible sign of things to come images of tailbacks of trucks on the road. the port of dover and the channel tunnel in folk still thursday logistics companies are

2:23 am
other former ministers have also been accused $200.00 people were killed in that disaster with thousands injured and so many more left homeless and i heard reports from beirut. it's been 4 months since a massive explosion in beirut support this story didn't damage surrounding neighborhoods killing 200 people and injuring thousands and investigation has yet to provide an explanation on what caused nearly 3000 tons of ammonium nitrate to explode. but for the 1st time senior officials are being charged. the caretaker prime minister has along with 3 former ministers are accused of negligence says his conscience is clear and that he has no intention of being questioned again he is now the 1st prime minister in lebanon's history to be charged. dad was forced to resign days after the blast
2:24 am
but later returned as caretaker he was only in power for a few months when the explosion happened that's why some are questioning the judicial decision that the state is protecting itself and the clearest indicate your tooth out is with that accusation caught in foreign minister they also accused 3 previous transportation ministers a lot of articulate sponsible for the pork but faded to accuse the 3 previous prime ministers who've been and power since 2014 when the might very ammonia and shipments came into lebanon so it's very clear that this has been a very selective accusation by the state which includes the major 6 in which you can parties and their leaders. deb repeatedly acknowledged receiving prior warnings about the dangers posed by the ammonium nitrate but he wasn't the only one. so 2 far though and mid-level employees at the port and custom authorities have been
2:25 am
charged and that is why there has been so much public anger official correspondence between various branches of government so the president the now caretaker prime minister former and current ministers as well as security officials and judges knew that the large amounts of explosive material were at the port and fail to take action. it was one of the world's biggest non-nuclear explosions and for many it was the direct result of corruption encouraged by a political class that governed for decades. this is not enough all this destruction in beirut is due to a history of corruption before her son and after him they should question all of them and the. families of the victims have been protesting against the delay in justice now a high ranking official is being held to account but this process could drag on for
