6:00 pm
exposes the business on al jazeera oh, you want to help save the world. please into your elbow in. ah, me. this is al jazeera. ah. hello, i'm sammy's aid. i'm. this is the news i live from dell, hard coming up in the next 60 minutes. us secretary of state anthony blanket, meets israeli and palestinian leaders to solidify the seas fire in garza sledging to help rebuild without benefiting how much the army behind law is qu in molly, as the rest of the country president and prime minister calls it
6:01 pm
a qu within a qu, iran's guardian council disqualify high profile reformers to moderate candidates the next month presidential election. you agrees on moral sanctions against ruth. before landing of the passenger jets arrest the armament, journalist, and florida limbic organizers. and since the united states advisory against travel to japan won't affect their preparations. a surgeon crunch virus cases in japan, slow vaccination rate is prompt that the warning. ah let's begin with washington's latest diplomatic efforts to strengthen a front jaw. seize fire between its ally, israel, and hammer in garza, us secretary of state and to the blank and his meeting president,
6:02 pm
mahmoud bath and all the palestinian leaders in the occupied west bank. its his 2nd stop on his trip to the region. earlier in the day he met prime minister benjamin netanyahu of israel and reaffirm us support drink and also emphasize the need for urgent humanitarian assistance. for garza. while he didn't mention a 2 state solution for the palestinians, it did say both sides deserved to live safely. and with dignity, assistance and investment like these will help foster a more stable environment that benefits pal stains and also benefits israelis promise. i had a chance to discuss other steps that need to be taken by leaders on, on both sides to set a better course for their shared future present biden. the said, we believed that palestinians and israelis equally deserved to live safely and securely, to enjoy equal measures of freedom, opportunity,
6:03 pm
and democracy to be treated with dignity, all in that press conference. and you may not now warn this country will have a powerful response from ass brakes to cease fire. we discussed also how to improve the lives in the conditions of the palestinians, the managerial conditions in gather including the question of the return of our m. hayes and to civilians were there, as for peace itself with the palestinians, a formal peace. i think president biden was absolutely correct when he said, you're not going to get peace until israel is recognized as an independent jewess state. and that is the key. i couldn't agree more diplomatic editor jane phase is following entity blanket trip. he joins us now live from romano. so james was sort of bind in the middle east plan if we can call it that is actually
6:04 pm
emerging here. not the ambitious source of peace plan. you've seen from presidents in the past since the level chords up until of course, president trump, who had a very different course from every other president. they are not talking about a 2 state solution. yes. that still the eventual aim, but no plans to actively have negotiations of this stage. there are much less ambitious and more modest aims for this administration. they know they have to deal with the situation on the ground here. they cannot ignore it. that has been shown to them by the 11 days of conflict, but we've seen that came to an end with the cease fire just a few days ago. but they don't think there is any way that they can actually start negotiations that will in any way be fruitful. so they've decided on the different policy, the policy of the biden administration,
6:05 pm
as it's being made clear out by secretary blinking 1st to the israeli prime minister and just moments ago, to palestinian president. it's a try and improve the life of ordinary palestinians to try and get humanitarian aid 1st and then reconstruction funds and building materials into garza and trans, stabilize things and keep the calm they want to make sure. ready the cease fire sticks, but after that, the idea i think is to put a lid on this conflict and keep it where it is because the idea of peace negotiations, active whitehouse involvement in diplomacy is just something that president biden for now does not want to pursue so to be clear here, this is not an attempt to deal with the root causes of the conflict that this is not an attempt to deal with ending the occupations is simply to put kind of students kind of on life support. absolutely, that is of a fair assessment of the situation. and clearly it goes against the policy of other
6:06 pm
key players in this, for example, the united nations, which does believe that the needs to be an active effort to try and revive the 2 state solution. an active diplomacy with regard to that it goes against the position of most countries just moments ago, i'm told by my colleagues reporting back in new york at the security council. quite a strong, impassioned statement from the irish ambassador to the united nations island currently serves on the security council. has strong views on this. it may be a small country, but it's a powerful one. is one of those 50 members of the security council right now. they said that they said that they absolutely need to deal with the fundamental problems here. they need to deal with the issue of settlements. you haven't heard the word settlements come out of secretary, lincoln's mouth once in his public utterances while he's been on his trip and they need to get back to try and sort out a 2 state solution. of course,
6:07 pm
there are many observers who wonder whether a 2 state solution is even a viable, whether it's actually territory on which now to create a palestinian state. all right, thanks so much, james bass, ballast crossover, to me that abraham, she's joining us now from ramallah as well. is the visit my banking, given palestinians than any sense of hope. neither or sammy, if it wasn't for the traffic that has been caused by the security forces trying to ensure the convoys way while it's going through the presidential have for there's i can assure you many palestinians wouldn't have even paid attention that the visit was happening. let alone half hope from us have been speaking to paulson in over the years and they were telling us that they love the national community. they feel that they have left them alone and that they're fighting. now alone. there's also
6:08 pm
a why is it a gap between the palestinian authority to pop the leadership and the people according to a poll in large, more than 65 percent of the new were satisfied with the performance of the past. and the purpose of this is even before the lack of collisions that just give you and i take, you know, law to late, his pictures coming out the ramallah. that's listening to what we heard. our bass was saying that meeting with anthony, blinking for the support given to the state of palestine. when the ad, the support, let not what it has been one given to us to the own rule. and we appreciate that very much one of them, and we hope that the future has we then will be at food much
6:09 pm
of diplomatic activities. political activities are the, the, the us, the classified and older to reach a comprehensive, just and full solution according to the international legitimacy in order to put an end lately to these activities that being done from time to time, you want, oh, i did because this is and we also would like to think invited us patients with that as we have players as that when we would also like the same for us as an official support in the state. and that is the last and with the
6:10 pm
wash, according to the nation. and that isn't it so that these actions on the part of a few of you would come to a gun and the people of shifts around them. also thank man for the position full trying to put an end to the settlement policy will be occupied territories. the notion and the maintenance of this is also we sent to us in visual funding position expansion. and the action taken by a shot be the baseline, popular resistance, and we're reject violence and terrorism whatsoever. the type of badness and terrorism is we want peaceful ways to reach
6:11 pm
a political solution between us and between as well. also, i know that we assess that government is ready to deal directly in the reconstruction of the strip all while having national code government the one where the attempt. but again, we need everyone to be committed to the well known international legitimacy as then we can accept the formation of national record government into such agreements materializes condition. we informed the secretary of state that we have put on elections because israel has
6:12 pm
rejected elections in jerusalem. the moment is what except elections rhythm. we will do it immediately without any delay because we need to have democracy in the state of palestine. because ultimately what live interested in democracy from the lincoln with the secretary of state for his efforts being done now for this matter was present. thank you. the deep condolences of the united states to the families of lost loved ones in the recent violence of the children of the woman, the men whose lives were lost. i say this is a,
6:13 pm
as a father no tries whether israeli palestinian or american is assist statistic. we know the human consequences when the violence takes the upper hand and we are determined that not be the case. i think the loss of any of any child is a universe, a loss. and in some ways in comprehensible except to those who suffered the loss. and that's true, irrespective of whether you are israeli, palestinian american, if you are a human being, that's what matters. we know that the last round of violence is symptomatic of a larger set of issues that we have to address if we're going to prevent the
6:14 pm
reoccurrence. and that's what we talked about today. we welcome the cease fire that continues to hold. but that's not enough. we have to build on the, on the fire and try to move things in a genuinely positive direction. as i told the president, i'm here to underscore the commitment of the united states to rebuilding a relationship with the palestinian authority and with the policy and people a relationship built on mutual respect. and also a shared conviction that palestinians and israelis light deserve equal measures of freedom, security, opportunity and dignity. as i told the prime minister netanyahu and president, a boss, the united states will be moving forward with the process to reopen or conflict,
6:15 pm
interest them. that's an important way for, for our country to engage with and provide support to the palestinian people. were also working in partnership with united nations. the international community capacity authority and past and the people, the government of israel to assist in the relief and recovery efforts in gaza. the this relief is urgent. we have to respond to the profound need to help people in, in this moment, to that end, i informed president boss and earlier prime minister netanyahu that the united states will notify congress of our intention to provide 70 $5000000.00 an additional development and economic assistance for the palestinians in 2021 will also provide a 5 and a half $1000000.00. an immediate disaster assistance for garza and
6:16 pm
a little over $32000000.00 for unrest. emergency humanitarian appeal. this new assistance comes on top of significant support that the united states as recently committed and resumed to the palestinian authority to palestinians to different different agencies in groups. in total, we are in the process of providing more than $350000000.00 in urgent support for the palestinian people. and across these efforts, we will work with partners to ensure that hamas does not benefit from the reconstruction of asking the international community. asking all of us to help rebuild gaza only makes sense if there is competence that what is rebuilt is not lost again because from the launch more rocket attacks in the future. so
6:17 pm
this is vitally important. we also talk a little bit about the challenge that all of us have faced together in the past year, and that is covered my team. and we will work out in the united states to rally the international community to provide one and a half 1000000 doses of safe, effective over 900 vaccines to the palestinian people beyond the immediate reconstruction. and those were also committed to working with the palestinian authority and the international community to promote economic stability and progress in the west bank and gaza. more opportunity strength in the private sector, expand trade and investment, all of which are essential to growing opportunity across the board. will also work with the policy authority to ensure freedom of expression for all palestinians and the promotion and protection of civil society. i very much look forward in
6:18 pm
a short while to meeting with leaders from paulson and civil society a little later today. we will, as the president noted, continue to firmly oppose any unilateral or provocative actions that risk sparking more violence. and that undermine prospects for a just durable resolution of the conflict between palestinians and israelis, which ultimately requires 2 states. and whether that is settlement activities, whether that is home demolitions, annexation of the territory, incitement to violence, compensation for individuals in prison fracture, terrorism, any unilateral action that undermines the prospects for genuine progress and genuine peace is something we will continue to post. we remain committed to the historic status full on the her, on the sharif palestinians,
6:19 pm
and muslims from around the world must be able to pray in peace on the novel sanctuary now and eternally in jerusalem and across israel. christian and muslim house and the families deserve the same. right? to worship build and thrive as their jewish happens, the aspirations of the palestinian people are like those people everywhere to live in freedom, to have their basic rights respected. including the right to choose their own leaders to live insecurity, to have equal access to opportunity for themselves, for their children, to be treated with dignity. and my message today is that the united states is committed mister president, to working with you to working with the palestinian people to realize these aspirations. thank you for having us here. thank you. a ceasefire is not enough. the words there of the us, secretary of state antony,
6:20 pm
blinking, saying the violence is symptomatic of a largest set of issues. he went on to outline his aspirations for the international community to help and rebuilding garza that said, it only makes sense if there's confidence that everything won't be destroyed again . and if he decides to launch rockets as he put it, you said palestinians and israelis deserves as he put it, equal measures of freedom security opportunity and dignity didn't mention of palestinian state though in in his remarks we have those comments coming off to the palestinian president though, thanks biden administration for he put the support for the state of palestine and for the effort to triumph with men to settlement activities. he said that we need democracy in palestine. let's go to james phase. he's falling anthony
6:21 pm
blinkin strip joins us now from ramallah. so those words painted picture of an effort to try and restore some kind of balance of human rights equality, dignity for both sides. but you've got to wonder james, with the political situation well, amongst both palestinians and israelis being in a bit of disarray right now. whether they can be any real serious attempt to construct some kind of solution to what secretary blinking called the largest set of issues behind the violence. and i don't think reading between the lines there is going to be any effort from the us administration to solve the fundamental problems here. no mention as you say, a palestinian state no mention of a 2 state solution. as you say, a backdrop or political turmoil on both sides, the israelis for elections, and you have primary messing yahoo today meeting the secretary of state,
6:22 pm
but he's only the caretaker prime minister at this stage. he hasn't formed a coalition, in fact, the opposition currently trying to form a coalition on the palestinian side. you were supposed to have elections last weekend, but of course they were cold off president by saying that was because it won't allow voting in jerusalem. interesting that, that he said the elections could happen straight away immediately if israel changed his mind on that also interesting that he's talking again about a national court government, of course that's being talks about so many times the idea of fata and us coming together and any of those unity negotiations of the past have was broken down. so yes, a very different difficult backdrop for this. so lots of commitments from the united states and lots of good words about equal rights and dignity for palestinians and israelis, israelis, but no equal right to a state anytime soon,
6:23 pm
i think is the message from the, from the secretary of state. all right, thanks so much. james space there. the white house and kremlin has confirmed us president joe biden and russian president vladimir putin. we'll meet in geneva next month. the summit comes amid growing tensions between the 2 nations . washington says it once a stable and predictable relationship with moscow. kimberly hallett joins be live now from the white house. so kimberly, this assigned that relations are about to improve well, there may be some work to be done in some talking in order for that to happen. it is notable the location of this in geneva because this is the same site that in 1985 us president ronald reagan, met with russian liter mikhail gorbachev at the time. so it certainly has significance and history behind it. but there are a lot of thorny issues that these 2 are going to have to work out. not only is the
6:24 pm
us present expected to raise concerns about russian aggression along ukraine border, but also the jailing of election of volley. and also the fact that there have been hacked notice solar winds of u. s. government agencies, as well as defense contractors. and most recently the attack on the colonial pipeline here in the united states. and well, the united states says this was not state sponsored. they do say that these were russian hackers that were responsible for the disruption in the flow of gas for ordinary americans for at least a week. so there are a large number of issues to be addressed, including the concern of the nuclear escalation. so all of this is going to have to be worked out, suspect it may take more than one meeting. all right, thanks so much. kimberly how kit there. hi, iran is a noun 7 candidates who are approved to run for president and next month selection . all candidates must be vetted by
6:25 pm
a panel overseen by iran supreme leader to le come in, i those making the listing through the rounds judiciary chief. but i have the ac, who ran unsuccessfully in the last election. several high profile figures were bought from running, including former president, mahmud medina, john and a former parliament speaker. as a vague is live in toronto, i said how controversial is this decision by the guardian council proving very controversial considering that the moderates, the head and legs by presidents has central hon. you were supporting 3 term foremost speaker, parliament and advisor to the how many are in johnny now? he hasn't qualified to stand also, former president vintage that hasn't qualified. but before this he didn't have said that if they didn't let him stand, he would boycott the elections. not vote for anybody,
6:26 pm
not back anybody either. but also the vice president if john hillary is also not been allowed to start and it's causing some to question that some aspects of the political establishment have what the current judiciary, chief abraham, easy to be, the next president. now the guardian counselor can over that decision can be overturned, but that has to be done by the supreme need to love me. but in the last few hours, the brother of johnny who sits on the budget counts, in fact, on the guardian council for 20 years, has made the statement saying in the 22nd, the council, this is the 1st time a decision has been made that he court said that is indefensible. you also accused security of his, of intervening and providing information against candidates. so yes, this decision has been very controversial. and if you take into account from any back in march, he spoke in the national address and he said that he wanted lots of people to come out and both for the dignity of the nation. so they want to high voter turnout. but
6:27 pm
one way to show that a lot of people don't come out to vote is to disqualify a number of opposition candidates. and again, it's, it's led to some questioning the political forces behind current judiciary, chief abraham. right. you see, and the forces that want him to become next president. all right, thanks so much. i said bake there. dina is sunday is a middle east and unless she joins a fly by skype from london, good. have you with us. so how much of a set back 1st of all, is this for the camp of the president for the reformers? well, that makes things very difficult for them. if they're not allowed to run the, it was unlikely that you would be able to get anywhere as part of these elections. but i learned johnny did stand a chance. he did seem to be a pretty popular candidate. it does seem though, there is, there is some chatter about him,
6:28 pm
potentially being reinstated. and this being moved to make him seem even more popular because he would effectively be the anti establish candidate. so we'll have to wait and see what you think it bolden the guardian council to make this move pretty much, shall we say created the field of, of so called moderates and the reformers. oh, i'm sorry, i can't hear you anymore. can you hear me now? let me try the question again. i can what in bold and the guardian council to make this move because it's pretty significant and kind of clear is the, the so called moderates and reformers out of the picture and lines up pretty much one type of candidate for elections. yeah, it doesn't. it doesn't give the iranian people much of a choice. they do all seem to be more or less of the hard line camp. i think the idea is, is that they wanted to ensure that the 1st round of the elections would,
6:29 pm
would result in one winner. and it had to be a winner that the iranian security system would agree to. so it is a pretty bold move, particularly at a time when they are concerned about voter turnout. but i think this idea that the voter turnout is more important than a potential hard line candidate can now be thrown away because i think, i think it looks like be a rainy and system is moving a little more towards the hardline camp. what might this mean for relations with the west to have full hopes reviving the raw nuclear deal? so had you asked me this a few months ago, i would have said it's worrisome, but i do think that now firstly, the talks that are going on at the moment do seem to be on a good track and it does look like we may be resolving the impact on the nuclear deal. and on top of that, i think
6:30 pm
a lot of the hard line camps in iran have been watching what the ro, honey government has done in terms of opening iran up and looking like a good international actor. that is no longer isolated and i think there's a desire for them to get ownership of this process as well. that basically means that if a hard liner comes in, which now looks increasingly likely, i think that talks with the west will continue. and it's likely that we'll see some form of return to the nuclear deal or i'm thank you so much for your thoughts and analysis. on that. still ahead on al jazeera, hundreds of thousands of falls to leave their homes in the 2nd 5 close in the face of a weak hit, india and sport, the crowds, the force organizes of last week, p j championship, into an apology. details coming up later in the show. ah

6:33 pm
welcome back here watching. i'll just have time to recap. i'll have lounge now us secretary of state anthony blink and his meeting palestinian leaders in the occupied west bank. after talks with lee that my food on bath lincoln said the by ministration would be asking congress for $75000000.00 in funds to assist palestinians. the white house in kremlin of confirm us president joe biden, russian president vladimir putin will. nathan geneva, next month, the summit comes in a growing tension between the 2 nations. iran has announced 7 candidates, so our approved to run for president and next month selection. making the lists include the rounds judiciary chief ibrahim ac, run on successfully in last. in the last election. not molly's vice president is confirmed. these ousted the prime minister and president and stripped them of the power colonel. see me go into the military coup. last year. he accuses the leaders
6:34 pm
of violating transitional agreements are being held in a military facility near the capital bama co go to insist selections will take place next year as planned. shows to the vice president of the transition saw himself obliged to preserve the transitional charter and to defend the republic in order to remove the president and his prime minister from the duties as well as all those involved in the situation. in this circumstance, the vice president of the transition in bots of population to go about their business freely and reassure them of the unwavering commitment of the armed forces of defense and security to preserve the best interests of the people. nicholas hock is following those developments from santa golf capitol deck also because it sounds like the military is now consolidated, its pow, it's not what you're hearing. that's right. and it's something that isn't going down well, especially in paris, we've just heard from president emanuel michael who describes the situation as
6:35 pm
a qu within a qu, unacceptable. he says, and he's called for urgent un security council meeting, talking about potential sanctions against the military leadership in, in molly, if anything's to me what this shows is the true leadership and the 2 people that are in power. in molly, you know, the civilian, not the government of transition, but in fact the military agenda who took over power last august when they removed the former president abraham k to falling widespread protest against him. now they had 9 months to change the situation to organize elections, to bring back the rule of law and the state and in areas in regions where armed groups such as mountain side to the slot one with the mean and the some state in the greater. so are gaining ground specifically in central, molly? well, that hasn't happened. they have been gaining grounds. and the situation right now, it's very difficult for millions of volumes who are either in need of humanitarian
6:36 pm
assistance or, or calling for more security in their region. so they're caught in the middle of this tussle for power. at the root of all of this, tommy is on monday when the prime minister marked are one announced a new government in it. he removed too close allies to see me go to members of the military joint and replace them with 2 members of the m 5, the m 5 movement, which is a civil society movement that led to the downfall of abraham mover car, kate. and now right now what we have, i mean by my co is the chief negotiator for the west. african body echo was on the ground trying to find a resolution or a solution to this deadlock. and most importantly, what the international community and good luck. jonathan's mission is, is to ensure that the president and the prime minister that are currently detained
6:37 pm
in the military camp outside the capital or fried and reinstated the position from the international community is that they are in charge of the government of transition. so we're going to see a lot of discussions that head and cotton middle of this of course. so the 1000000 people who want to see and then to all of this, sammy, and that was nicholas hong classroom dot com 100. so la is a journalist and publisher of la mancha mac dot com, a news website. he says marian's will resist the military takeover. and the response is because the money and money and people you are showing and happiness regarding the current situation on the way the miller fries took the president and the vice president to cut the just ratio for many serial where the happiness is it's when the
6:38 pm
defense minister and the security minister who are also too strong men of the doing have not been appointed in the government of establishing by mocked on one end, the president bondo. we don't think the vice president of dawn sean, who is in charge of security and defense. so the unhappiness is from that point and money and shall we also unhappiness regarding the way don't immediately mean regarding the way they do or do it in our call for practice in by michael to show that people are not agree about military and they want the military to relieve the president and the vice president who did detain in english and we got a town located in in kilo metal of banneker. now
6:39 pm
a john jean rome has ruled for a gypsy and security for the members should stand trial for the murder of an italian academic julio. d and his body was found in a ditch outside cairo in 2016 bearing signs of torture. the cambridge university student was studying local trade unions, national security, general todd, sovereign, and 3 of his subordinates would be tried in absence. here, as rainy is live outside the court in rome. so how's it looking there? well, sammy, basically the judge who deliberated all day after hearing arguments here at the court of rome, bought into the prosecutor's argument. and that argument says the following, that for several months, security forces were spying on following and checking up on the jenny, perhaps suspicious of some activity. we don't know why, but the prosecutor bought that argument along with,
6:40 pm
i mean the judge that is bought that argument from prosecutors. prosecutors who also said that these officers had abused their authority with cruelty by conspiring to duct re jenny, to torture him allegedly and to kill him and try to make it look like he'd been the victim of a criminal organization. now the defense attorney who's not even met his clients in egypt made another argument. that argument was that they are not here. they don't even know about the case and how can they be tried if they haven't been part of this ongoing process. of course, the judge didn't by that and says, that's a ridiculous argument, considering all of the international attention that's been on this case. it's also impossible to separate italian public opinion from the hearing's going on here for months now. it's not years there been signs across italy, st. justice for julia or jenny. that's because at times have been extremely skeptical and suspicious of egyptian authority. we've constantly changed the
6:41 pm
arguments about what they think happen to reach anything. it was a criminal group or changing that it's been so strong. the reaction here in italy that you have a telling politicians, even the president, the parliament accusing egyptian officials of lying. so this for prosecutors is a big early win. in this case, all it means is it's proceeding to the trial phase, but that trial won't get underway until october. all right, we'll be there. thanks so much. now mystery abas is being built on an island off yemen that sits in one of the worlds crucial maritime routes. no country is claimed to my own island database in the bible. mandab straight. the united arab emirates attempted to build a massive runway that years ago. officials in yelman's, internationally recognized government say, the morality of behind this latest construction. the un human rights office and the u. k. of joined international appeals, demanding the release of
