a month after he took office at least 4 people are shot dead and sued on tens of thousands protest against the military coups. running on empty a fuel shortage in china forces the world's 2nd largest economy to russian diesel. ah hello. thanks for joining us. it's the final day of the g. 20 gathering of world leaders in rome. on saturday. they agree to introduce a global corporate tax aimed at stopping big business from hiding profits and countries where they pay little or no taxes. the group is expected to focus on climate change. just the head of the cop 26 conference taking place in glasgow. adarine reports from room. the g 20 summit began on saturday with

a plea from the host of the gathering italian prime minister, mary draggy. we must do all we can to overcome our differences. and we must rekindle the spirit that led to the creation of this group coming into the summit. leaders from the world. major economies agree to a minimum global corporate tax, a 15 percent meant to reduce abuse of off shore loopholes. the biggest issues though, are proving the most difficult cove in 1900 vaccine equity and taking effective action on the climate crisis. a draft statement from the group shows its struggling to get member countries to truly commit to capping global warming. at the $1.00 degree mark, a benchmark scientists have said is required to avoid disaster. and this comes just days before the climate change conference in glasgow. some key leaders opted to attend only via remote video with the chinese president. she,

jim pang made only vague comments about china opening up further to the world that made no mention of china's role as a major global polluter. russian president vladimir putin had a more pointed request on vaccine recognition when russia sputnik cove in 1900 vaccine has not been approved for use by the u. s. or the european union, and hopes of reviving the iran nuclear deal. us president joe biden met on the sidelines with the leaders of the u. k. france and germany. they later issued a statement warning of the dangers of a nuclear capable iran. outside the security perimeter protesters gathered to call attention to various causes, thousands of protesters. some differences have come out to the street here in rome on saturday. some are calling for action on the climate crisis and others are marching against capitalism. they all have one message, the net for world leader. it's a global equity climate change. now we're marketing today because we're asking for

more concrete policies on climate change since the g 20 is happening right now, and the summit will continue on sunday. people will be watching closely to see if a closing statement will go far enough and addressing climate change. adam rainy, jazeera rome, let's speak to our diplomatic editor james mays. he's joining us from rome. so james is we're saying it is the final day of the g. 20 summit over where you are in rome and the focus very much on climate change. yeah, absolutely. the main plenary session went, all the leaders are sitting around the table is on climate. those words, obviously important words as a final communique are important. we don't know those yet that no, it's not been released yet, but we've certainly seen a draft copy out there as obtained a draft copy and that language in there, which talks about keeping global warming well below 2 degrees is not the 1.5 degrees that the u. n. and most expert, si se,

is absolutely essential. and i think there are many activists, many of those demonstrate as you saw in adams report, who are going to be unhappy if they stick with the language that we've seen in the final statement or so. of course, all the individual countries from the g 20 have got to come up with their own commitments. and many of those are believed by experts to be lacking. remember that the leaders here join the latest from all around the world in glasgow. that 12 day conference starts as soon as the g 20 n's. he'll be flying straight from one place to the other. and that the un says is a conference that's absolutely vital to protect the planet. and the u. n. is also made it clear the 2nd general view and has made it clear. but without the g 20 doing that bit, there's very little chance of success in glasgow. and james, what else is on the agenda for the day? well, so many subjects get disgust around the table of the g 20. when these 20 powerful

leaders meet each year. but also a lot of the business has done one on one between the leaders and i think that's probably one of the places to be looking at some of those meetings that are taking place today. remember, president she of china did not come here and he's not going to gloss, go for the climate summaries. he has been participating in the g 20 remotely. but what that means if we don't get, which is always very important, that these things, the meeting between the u. s. leader and the chinese leader, the 2 most powerful men on earth. but what we are having in about 20 minutes time is a meeting with the representatives. so anthony blink in the us, secretary of state is going to be sitting down as a say in, in about 25 minutes with the state counselor and foreign minister y e of china. that can be worth watching. what comes out of that meeting? we also have a meeting between president brighton president, one of turkey. now you know how tense us turkish relations and western relations

with turkey had been in recent weeks, particularly with turkey, declaring 10 ambassadors including the us ambassador persona non grata. so i think they'll be trying to re establish relations there between us and turkey and improve those relations in another place where the rocky relations is between 2 neighbors across the english channel. you've got growing disputes, over fishing apart and trade disputes. after breaks it, we're going to have a meeting we believe on the sidelines of the g 20, between the british prime minister barak johnson, and the french printed president manuel mal macro was telling you the u. k. government are actually briefing u. k. reporters that they want the e u terrain in the french president who they say is going to far on this fishing issue. ok, james. thank you so much, james. today's reporting from rome. now the united states and the european union have agreed to ease tariffs on steel and aluminium imports. us will now allow

certain metals from the you to enter duty free. it avoids you retaliatory measures on us products that were due to go into effect in december. the former us president donald trump introduced the levies 3 years ago. phil laval has more from washington dc. what this does is it gives president biden a number of wins at 1st of all allows him to show off on the world stage that the u . s. is back that it's making friends again, which is what a lot of the g twenty's been about. it's about him showing that the u. s. is moving away from that. isolation is the approach that the previous administration favorite in a number of ways. it allows him to also avoid these a. you retaliate 3 tariffs, remember they would use a kid in a matter of weeks. they were going to double duty on a number of things. like, for whiskey like harley davidson motorcycles, all american products and this would not have gone down well domestically. it also allows him to show off his green credentials. we know the president biden has made tackling climate change. a real tentative, his presidency. he going to be at the cop summit in a matter of days. this allows him to show that they're working in the us with your

rep, which is known for producing what you might call cleaner metals, as opposed to china, which is allowed, which used as co powered furnace is. so can make cheaper metals, but not necessarily battles that are great for the environment. and also on the subject to china. it allows him to show some presidential muscle against china, which you guys will go down well with some quarters here in the united states. now, in terms of the actual logistics of this agreement, the announcement has to be made. we've had an announcement of an announcement that is coming at the moment. the terrorists are 25 percent on steel, 10 percent, all minion, we believe, but it's probably going to be something more like a sliding scale. so, depending on how much the import level is, that will then affect how much the terrorists. aw, so it will be all relative and again, the amount will be this buffers on this green zone of what we think will be $3300000.00 tons a year allowed in. but again, those details are due to be made public later by president biden. us live on the

live, crucially, these metals will have to be made in the a use that means they all melted and poured in the you. it means that countries like china, like russia, like south korea, can make them than send them to europe and pass them on saying they were made in because they had a few finishing touches put on in europe. but as i say, those details coming and becoming ouse, voters in japan are casting their ballots in a general election to decide whether to keep the newly appointed prime minister. the governing liberal democratic party has been led by female cuz she does, since you want a leadership vote a month ago. he's in charge after years. shahita suga resigned a year into the job. you see the has promised to revive your pounds. pandemic battered economy with a stimulus package. so the house of representatives is the more powerful of the japanese parliament, 2 chambers and is made up of 465 seats from jo. casita has set a modest goal for the liberal democrats and its coalition partner. he wants them to win at least $233.00 seats. the fewest needed to secure

a majority. but polls are suggesting his party is likely to lose seats. and that's in part because 5 opposition parties are fielding unity candidates in small electoral constituencies. b, l d p has dominated japanese politics since the 2nd world war and has governed the country almost continuously for decades. covering this story is rob mcbride. he's joining us from sol. the rob. how big a test is this for the prime minister? this is being seen generally as, as a test because she does popularity. he is new to the job, but by association. he does a come into the job, inheriting a lot of the public disapproval of the way the government, which is dominated by the liberal democratic party. and also his predecessor at the a previous prime minister yoshi, he, they suger, have handled the with corona virus pandemic that there are also concern sir in japan about the continuing sluggishness of the economy, stagnant wage growth,

job security. but this is also seen as a fight, not necessarily between the political parties, but also a fight with voter apathy. the last 2 elections are for this or lower house, have seen the lowest voter turnout since the 2nd world war with just a little over half of the eligible voters actually coming out to vote. it's also disproportionately the elderly of japan who tend to be the voters or the older generation. and this is an, an older graying society. they tend to take the civic responsibility of voting very seriously. a consequently, a lot of the campaigning. a lot of the policies have been directed at the more elderly voters, which then becomes a self feeding cycle. if you like that the younger generation or even more disengaged. and in the last election, we saw virtually just a 3rd of all a 20, some things who are eligible to vote, actually coming out and casting their votes. so that will be one of the 1st figures

that will be very telling in this election wants the polls close in a few hours, just the actual voter turn it around to across, back to you, then. thank you so much. ra mcbride reporting from sol still a had announcer 0. i'm biddies have when they took all region in a while and the world is coming together to combat climate change. i. tragedy is underway in one of the most bio diverse regions in the world. and struggling under soaring inflation, people in argentina calling their government to stop foreign dec payments. ah well the atlantic will make itself really felt, although the news is good for sicily. that rain at storm distance moving away. this next lots coming in. this is huge. stretching from north norway to southern

portugal. now this white cloud, which means is rain underneath the rain has been particularly heavy in the northern bit recently has been flooding in the u. k. mall rain to go through on sunday, going food through fairly quickly. but over some dried and the orange street then goes in towards belgium stretches down towards france. the head of it is still inducing, fairly warm. others a southerly winds. the snow is a long way north and stock rims at 12 degrees. for example, that's not going to change except the addition of rain during monday and then briefly but of her priest and the british isles. i said may, for scotland was a pretty strong westerly wind, that we had sat house, that storm system having gone away from sicily is disappearing into the east and mad. but you see it is more right not far away by the end of sunday on its way towards sicily. and that's come through on this string of clad this gongs re portugal and spain. and the obvious dark blue that goes up through france. as you can see, that the all advances give significant snow early seasons permanently throughout

the out and then significant rain this time for north nittany. ah, in the me, with an abundance of results. byron y indonesia, his big concerns for me, we move to growth and fraud. we balance rena economy, blue economy and the digital economy. with the new job creation law, indonesia is progressively ensuring the policy reform to create quality jobs. invest might be part of his growth and progress in indonesia now. ah ah.

hello down the road, this our japan newly appointed prime minister faces his 1st big test. the national elections. voters are casting their ballot to decide whether to keep whom jo casita, officer. he won the ruling party leadership race last month. it's the final day of the g 20 gathering of world leaders in rome. the group has agreed on a minimum global corporate tax to be imposed on multinational companies. and now the focus is expected to shift towards climate change on the 25th. com for a while across the world. exploiting natural resources has been central for economic growth, despite the consequences for the environment on climate. illegal mining and ecuador has been a way of life for many decades. there are fears surrounding government to issue more international licenses. here is a bo reports from the city of morale, does

a community that's been trying to resist the advance of large mining companies. this is the pacific william forest and there we are filled with wild life and unique vegetation. it is slowly being devastated. bulldozers are used to divert the river as illegal miners try to find gold. and no one has been doing this for 12 years. he says he rents the equipment and hires members of the community to help out that much. then we bring a machine and we make a whole and then we get the material and start building a pool. and then we start extracting when we get 150 grams of colder so than it's worth moving somewhere else. people like the lever spend hours next to the river, trying to find the scraps left by bigger miners. she shows us how she's able to find some gold particles that allow her to make around $20.00 a day and feed her 4 children for them. and we don't get to work every day. we work

one week and then that's it. then we have to find another area where we are told some of the country's best. gold is found here. lack of government controls, makes it easy for illegal activities to spread. look what's happening here. this is one of the most bio diverse regions in the world. this is the b river and it's slowly being destroyed by even minors. at the same time, local families say that this is the only way they have to make a living. but it's having a huge impact on the environment all around is he will community. there are abandoned fools, allegedly filled with a chemicals used in the process to extract gold, eddystone, and appa is the leader of the church indigenous community. he says he's concerned, as the look on them is hillary, you're the rivers contaminated it. you cannot bathe fish or drink water for 11 years. it's contaminated and we are asking children not to go to the river. madonna

university research shows the water in the province of him. it. alice has high levels of aluminum and iron. janet got a bass lives in a nearby community. she says her children are showing signs of skin problems. pressing he's had a more lasso once to increase mining and all exploration activity in the country, to jumpstart a troubled economy and to fight illegal operations. but experts say it will not solve equality endemic problems. luckily, because you're busy, that is, they want to tell us that exploiting these resources will solve our problems of misery under development. and that we will progress. but history tells us that has never happened because it's not the 1st time our elite ser, incapable of thinking an economic model. that is not only extracting nature's resources because that's where our problems lie. it, while those swain forest is among the most threatened in the world, poverty and employment, and the promise of development are causing massive damage. the government,

instead of fighting it, is desperate to bring international oil and mining companies and give it away. that is, i will as a cedar is made as the quality. so don's doctor's committee says at least 4 people were killed in protests on saturday. hundreds of thousands took to the streets, denounced the military takeover. soldiers use tear gas unblocked, major roads and gunfire has been reported. him, morgan has more from the capital, hard to hear a protest that's been days in the making. thousands of people gather on the streets of her to demanding a return to transitional government. something they say was rub from them after the military coup on monday. and then no, no, no, some glove lean. we went to the street because we reject the military rule and he reject authoritarianism. and we categorically reject all the behavior of the military council. i don't know my be not what another,

what log on we want to topple the security committee and bring it down. we don't trust these people, this is not their 1st coup. we need the world to know that the sudanese people are living under oppression and are being beaten. our voices are not listened to because there is no coverage and there is no internet. they're risking a lot days of protests in the capital letters treat to st. battles with the military and demonstrators killed. with the internet, cut off organizers used mosque flyers and graffiti to reach people. the military also blocked the main road to the airport. the plant root of this march saturday's protests were met with tear gas and live ammunition. what is really concerning is the vast array of military security actors that are on the streets. there are just incredible set of, of, of, of security sectors that now patrol the streets no sense that they are necessarily taking orders from

a central spot. and i think that i know that diversity of different mills rectors is really the world. ah, these demonstrators are demanding that prime minister, the lamb ducks cabinet be restored. it was toppled by general abdel for the help of on. he also dissolved the sovereignty council established after the overthrow of omar bashir 2 years ago. some political parties have supported the cool o dilemma. frequently, were hon says he will hold elections in july 2023 and then hand power to the elected civilian government. with the takeover has provoked international condemnation. the u. n. n u. s. has called on the military not to intervene in the protest regional and international acts as have been urging general han to reverse his school and was though the transitional government, which he dissolved on monday, but many processes here. so even if that happens, it's their fault showed all their demands to completely hand over power to civilian rule the people on how to toombs. 3, call it a power,

grab and demand, a return to a democratic process. he, bill morgan, august 0. cartoon, at least 12 people are now known to have been killed in a car. bomb attack at aiden's international airport in southern yemen. several more were wounded in that explosion. the city has been rocked by several bloss in the past few years. it's been the seed of humans internationally recognized governments and fruity rebels, took, oversaw in 2014 china husbands has started rationing diesel. a nationwide energy shortage has led to a surge and demand for the fuel under rise and prices. many truck drivers say they're not able to complete long distance routes to deliver vital goods. katrina, you us more from beijing? these truck drivers are used to criss crossing china driving hundreds of kilometers every day. but a nation wide shortage of diesel fuel has changed that, or you would go to the me, oh, i'm scared to leave beijing and dr. long distances,

some petrol stations have run out of diesel fuel. the machines are closed. 2 days ago, i drove south to whole bay province, and a man in paddle stations didn't have any. the shortage has been accompanied by a sharp rise and prices. since january, the cost of diesel here has increased by about 30 percent abyss petrol station customers limited to buy just $200.00 leases of diesel fuel. but outside the capital. the supply problem is much worse than some supply with having to wait days to review. there have been long lines of vehicles at petrol stations and china's southern and eastern provinces. due to rationing, many drivers say they can only refuel for one day's journey, which means cross country deliveries are taking longer to arrive. china is in the middle of the power crisis that is triggered blackouts in many cities, shortages of coal and natural gas have led to a surge in diesel consumption. factories and businesses have turned to diesel

powered generators to maintain operations, draining supply. the 2nd reason is probably because a lot of these are being re routed to the agriculture sector during the harvest season, to basically support a green trying and to prepare for, for plenty winter across. and on the, on the supply side, basically, the domestic supply for diesel has been going down because china has been export are a lot more up to the rest to the rest of the world. some estimate china's diesel stop pals to be at the lowest level and at least a year. environmental crackdown on crude oil production in some regions have worse than the shortage. the government has off the chinese refineries to increase production and imports, but this would be enough to contain the shortfall. experts warn the scarcity of diesel is likely to last for months and could worse and existing problems and the global supply chain. katrina, you out

a 0 paging police in columbia has seized more than 2 tons of cocaine in the tourist city of carter in the, in the us, the seizure of worth $100000000.00 was found that a container bound for ra through them in the netherlands. military forces captured the leader of a major drug cartel just last week. as the government stepped up a correct on columbia is the world's largest cocaine export. and the u. s. is its largest consumer link of us. you received about 2.2 tons in gross weight. of cocaine hydro chloride, that the drugs came from the port given ecuador, the final destination being the port rotterdam in the netherlands. drug was possibly going to be distributed in turkey, spain, italy, and obey near us. argentina has hardened its dance, as the deadline looms for, re negotiating a $45000000000.00 loan from the international monetary fund. it once the i'm after cut rates and support, it's economic plans at home. and as daniel shambler reports are bonus iris,

many in the country want to see a freeze on re payments as hunger, poverty, and inflation all rise. they q every weekday, outside the little star soup kitchen on the outskirts of when osiris ali to day were married and her neighbours arrived there was nothing left with them in that cuz he never sent that bit armenian, which they were supposed to have cooked plenty, but a lot of people turned up and we were a bit late, but they gave us some packets of food which will cook at home. it's probably all they eat until the soup kitchen reopens, serving 70 families with food given mostly by the local authorities. supervisor, marianna, blames inflation for the increase in hunger or the nutritional value of what they serve diminishes. yep. okay, well the last element, every day you go to the market and you'll find the price today is not the same as the price yesterday. it's very common prices rose 3.5 percent in

september. more than 50 percent over the past 12 months. isn't a good a more hello fresh. what we'd like is that people can buy what they need to know. they'll be able to eat nothing more. just the basics, the things we need to live a normal life, though. yeah. not a much over 40 percent of argentines live in poverty or more than half of children under 14 years old. don't have enough to eat this for many as the last resort. the offer of a bowl of rice which will lock will contain something you tricia's to get them through the day. because inevitably, the fight just to keep going will continue to morrow. the government last week for the price is of 1400 central item in the battle to control inflation. this blighted argentina for generations. some, some people say it's a race between wages and price

and other income like pensions. and in the meantime, you get somehow exposed to losses in purchasing power that then you can try to recover it and even anticipate the trade unions. so regular protest calling for fair wages to keep pace with inflation. they say that should take priority over repaying argentina's debt to the international monetary fund. was just, it's a scam and paying that debt is incompatible with any poverty and destitution. awesome teachers, historically volatile economy was hit hard by the cobra. 1900 pandemic. it's emerging from that catastrophe. oh, you have to deal with 2 of its traditional enemies, a massive debt burden and rampant inflation and swindler out to 0. what a cyrus a wooden canoe more than 1000 years old has been discovered in southern mexico. it
