when others don't, ah, because of all side, no matter where it takes a police fill in your guys when my empower in pasha, we tell your story. we are your voice, your new, your neck out here. ah. i'll only take charge as hastings new prime minister of the weeks of uncertainty following the assassination of the president. ah, fidel elders are alive from dell ha. also coming up. a close ally of donald trump is charged with legally bill being for the u. e commerce barrack was the chairman, if the former us president and girl firms brain causes have

a consent to china. and $10000.00 people are forced to leave their homes due to flooding and all of the world's richest man wraps up a space trip on his company. first passenger flight, just fazel has this message for future. we're going to build a road space so that our kids and their kids can build the future. and we need to do that. we need to do that to solve the problems here on earth. ah, haiti has new prime minister after 2 weeks of uncertainty following the assassination of president r e l only is a 171 year old euro surgeon, public official. he's calling for unity and it's promising to build consensus. he replaces interim prime minister. the whole josephs who took charge after president jovan malise was killed and thought his home. several foreign is are under arrest

for his murder. and gallagher was following developments from miami. now what we have as a prime minister, who's already put his cabinet together with one real goal in mind and not is to take a tea to new elections. remember, i haven't been elections in a t since 2017. that's one of nobody's was elected the elections in 2019 was so problematic that they basically fell to pieces. so this is certainly from the international communities point of view, the necessary next step for this impoverished nation. ordinary haitians have been extremely scared over the past couple of weeks, not knowing what will happen next. now the goal is to whole free and fair elections, something that could be easier said than done. it seems clear that the direction forward after the death of mo, east, was to get somebody speaking with one voice, was to put a cabinet together to get those elections going. but some other people are being talking to say, look, people going out voting for the next government may not solve haiti's problems. he

got the parliament was dissolved. the senate is basically not working. large parts of port prints run by gangs and the economy is essentially crumbling. so whether a new election will solve those problems. it's highly unlikely. but certainly the international community seems to see seems to think that is the right move. i think for ordinary haitians worried about their own security, least for now that is a prime minister that people can coalesce behind. but these elections in haiti's history of perhaps never been more important. brian con cannon is the executive director of project blueprint and found the board member of the institute for justice and democracy in haiti. he says hastings problems won't be solved by a single set of elections. what haitians were asking for was a haitian lead solution, one not dictated by the international community. and one that was broad based and representative. obviously, prime minister on rece taking power was dictated by literally i should probably not

asians. and he may have an opportunity to create a broad base government, but so far it does not appear to be the case with whom he is named. as his ministers, the challenges are, are many, they will not be solved by dr. reed. they will not be solved by a single set of their elections. a lot of these problems were, are a long time in the making and they'll be a long time in the solvent. but of course, he needs to start now and needs to get on that road to do it, and they need to elections are, are the key part of that? and one example is just the co v vaccines because president louise and the ph. d. k party had been undermining a whole range of government services. katie was the last country in the americas to, to do covey vaccinations. they just started this week and only because the u. s. basically took over and started doing it up. so you clearly have

a government that has not been able to provide basic services, and you really need that to have a stable country. you need that to have a country that can avoid the worst of the covey pandemic. and you need that to get the economy back moving and ally and friend, a former us president donald trump has been arrested on foreign lobbying charges. us justice department says thomas barrack and 2 others charged with acting as agents of the united arab emirates, barracks chad, back chairs rather trumps, and grow fund and help them get elected. the 3 men are accused of seeking to influence us public opinion in favor of the u. s. e y kind of has more from washington dc. he himself is still in custody. the prosecutors say that he is a flight risk, given his immense wealth, access to a private air crop. deep relationships with countries like lebanon and u, a saudi arabia. so we have heard nothing from him and unlikely to until he actually

appears at possibly a bail hearing, prosecutor's refusing bail at this particular stage, because he's applied risk. but all in all this 7 indictments, again, thomas barrack, very serious indictments, indeed among them that he lied to federal agents during a interview in june 2019 about these specific events. but one must look to at the why the context of this is that the prosecutors say that between the dates of donald trump's inauguration for the next 3 years, the u. a. e and saudi arabia, it's close allies, put some $1500000000.00 into racks, suffer and wealth fund a vast amount of money indicating that they were paying for services being given. well, let's take a closer look at the charges against barrack prosecutors say he provided the us with sensitive information about the trump administration, including how senior us official felt about the blockade on katara. authorities

also say that in may of 2016 barrick concerted language praising the u e n. a campaign speech trump delivered about us energy policy back is also alleged to have repeated the lives during an f b. i interview about his dealings with the moratti's. ryan grim is washington d. c. bureau chief of the intercept and investigative news organization, he says barracks arrest could have implications for more powerful people. is a billionaire used to moving in some of the most powerful circles on the globe who was, who was going to remain in prison? you know, for the foreseeable future, unless he can persuade a judge to somehow let him out until his, his trial. but the main question is going to be whether or or not baracus this has information that could, that could get him a reduced or non existent sentence that would implicate people higher up the chain

. and brock was so high up a chain that there are very few people that, that, that label would apply to. and jared kushner and donald trump, or are among the few that i think would qualify. the biggest and answer question is, it's a 2 part question. does brock have information about any got any golf country, whether it's cut through the u. e. saudi arabia or, or anybody else who offered financial benefit to anyone in the administration, in order for favorable policy treatment? does he have that information at the 1st half of the question in the 2nd half is, is he willing to trade that information to save his own skin? at least 12 people have been killed from the chinese city of jango. severe flooding sweets, the central region with more rain forecast officials say a dam could collapse at any moment. gillian wolf has the story. flood water

from beginning to end, the flight took just about 10 minutes. be 0, summed up the experience that ever later, the newly minted astronaut spoke at a press conference home i got when expectations were high and they were dramatically exceeded. i hope that we are one of the 1st and let's hope that many, many more people can do this because this experience, you should share more and more people. we had a great time, there was, it was wonderful. i want to go again. bass bases flight came just over a week after british billionaire richard branson flew to the edge of space, tesla and space x c e o. ilan mosque is also reportedly interested in making the trip at some point. many have criticize the exploit of space smitten billionaires as a galaxy sized ego competition, costing billions of dollars that could have been better spent to alleviate misery

on earth, particularly in the midst of a deadly endemic but others hope the stunning pictures will rekindle some of the excitement about space travel that has wayne since neil armstrong stepped on the moon 52 years ago to day basis as best day ever could signal the beginning of a lucrative sub orbital space tourism industry with well healed individuals paying vast sums of money to momentarily slip the surly bonds of earth. rob reynolds al jazeera van horn, texas. and we have a harsh is chair of the science operation, working group at nasa's mars exploration rover mission. he says the flight was more of a marketing exercise than a test of new technology. what they did today is really very, very little. i mean, they are there for maybe 60 miles. the people regularly go to the space station

which is 250 miles. people stay at the street station, 3 months. they just stay for 3 minutes. but what they really did is this is the, this is the book of an industry, a whole industry, you know, it is lay they are trying to sell this to the common person to see whether there is a de bond. so for example, you know, you and i spend a certain amount of money going to a beach vacations or see to barbara or to serenity will be spend maybe a little more money to go to space. and so that is what the, what today's take was about. and the other thing they're trying to insert here is the aspirational value. so, so before you know de beers going that, that a diamond is forever or that how do you make one month, the salary last
