so to get away with these regional boundaries, film direct, thank you. or into tell me thing, a songwriter again, if they were a for the record for, for may have, if making are invisible, you dear, be unscripted on out there. ah, this is al jazeera ah, hello, i'm marianne minimizing. welcome to the news, our life from london coming up in the next 60 minutes, sedans, prime minister, abdullah hun dog is back in power of designing a deal with the military. but protest as a continuing their calls for civilian room. polls close in chiles presidential elections with 2 very different front runners, leading opinion. polls desperate for food. hundreds of asylum seekers are stranded

on the bellows. poland border hoping to cross into the european union. i'm devin ashworth sport that is exactly one years ago until the castle world cup and the day has been marked as well with the countries of 1st formula was wrong. pre lewis hamilton at winning at the new sale circuit to keep his title alive. ah oh. and welcome to the program. we begin with developments and sir dawned were an agreement has been signed to reinstate deposed leda abdullah. hum dock as prime minister. it's been nearly a month since the military seized power, dissolving the interim government declaring a state of emergency general abdel for talbert han agreed to restore the planned transition to civilian rule. but it remains unclear exactly how much power of new

government is guy to have. country's largest opposition coalition says it will not recognize any agreement that shares powered the armed forces and they rejected it out there is. hipaa. morgan has more now from cartoon a breakthrough into dance political crisis nearly a month after military takeover and the solution of the transitional government on sunday, military leader general absence at the han and the post prime minister of the lamp dog signed an agreement that made the way for him to be reinstated as a sign this document of the appeal. because when i guided by 4 basic principles, one, when we, when we must put an end to bloodshed that i know our people are capable of sacrificing. however, each drop of blood pressure's lives put an end to the blood, bad and lead,

spare each and every drop of blood. the agreement comes after weeks of negotiations between the 2 sides, mediated by sudanese political figures. it's called for the release of political prisoners, including senior officials who are arrested on october 25th the day of the takeover . and in the days that followed, the agreement also lays out a plan to expand political participation in the transitional government. general han who cited political divisions as the reason for his 2nd power as the deal will lead to dialogues and those divisions that day. we believe by signing this political documentary and we are paving the way for a true democratic transition period as pictured by ourselves. and by the people and as what you invested just at the beginning of april 2019 we thank all the to the news people and all the efforts that can be made by our

fellows to the name that has been governed by a power sharing agreement between the military and the political coalition, known as the 4th of freedom and august 2019. but the months leading to the recent military take over the tensions between the 2 sides. with acute each other of flow, economic recovery and lack of judicial reform. the agreement signed between him and general hon may have written, stated him as prime minister, but it doesn't mean the end of them political crisis simply take over nearly a month ago. there have been protests nearly every day with people demanding an entirely civilian government and an enter the partnership between the military and civilian sunday. the means the military remains as a governing partner, and that has angered many here, 1000 protest, presidential palace and before the signing of the authorities responded by firing to your guys and live ammunition in the air. at least 40 percent that have been killed since the military took over, and more than $200.00 injured the forces of freedom and change which nominated him

took a prime minot. so back in 2019 has distant itself from the deal. and analysts see there are questions about how much the military can be trusted. the last month has been a total fiasco for the military. why? because they did what they did and sell them and they had to do a 180 degrees return. that doesn't mean that the prime minister of southern lead that all over land. but what it means is that there is a momentum, suddenly not in favor of the genitals, but rather on the favor of the street. but as you said, we will see where was the stake us, because there are a number of dynamics at play here. there's the military, there's a street, there's the neighbors of the african union, and there's the international community horn. now, sedan takes a mother and foot and step in its transition. people, morgan on to 0 cartoon. all that have been some further developments in sit on in the past couple of minutes with the reuters news agency reporting that for political prisoners have been released following up little political settlement

earlier on today. of course, the agreement pledging to release all dis haney's. and many more people still being detained. earlier i discussed this with dahlia abdulla manet, him a sudanese activist who was out protesting on the streets of hart, him and she described to me how people reacted to news. all that this agreement lot shifted to being very anti handle when before it was very pro hm doc. and there was of anger understand the lead for all of us were out both to see. and the numbers were huge. the military's presence in the country is a reality. how if a has to be a yeah. so if a has to be some sort of power sharing agreement or transition, how is that going to work if any one that and that tries to negotiate or engage with the military is then rejected by a protest, as that's

a $100000000.00 question. honestly, i wish i could give you an answer, but i don't know. but what i do know is that the military has to compromise. it can't continue, like it has been asked them for the past 3040 odd years. they have to recognize and they have to acknowledge that the st. the people, their voice is matter. our voice matters in action that people have been killed in protest sense. and then a trick who took place? is there a chance that this agreement to day could be a way to end the blood shed and save lives? i mean, from a pragmatic point of view. absolutely. you can say no. the decision that handled took was for the better good for the good of the whole country and so on. but like to have said, we do not trust nor do we believe the military we. they couldn't promise me one

thing today. and i know for a fact that it's up to more than a few days, they will rescind the promise one way or the other. so how are we to trust them? if i could just ask you, what are the protest his plans now and will the demonstrations remain peaceful? the decisions will never change, that will always be peaceful. i mean, that's one of our chance in peace, justice equality. that's always, that's always what we've been asking for loans. com to accept this interest in those things back home and say ok, job done. no, we're still gonna go out there. we're still going to go and protest. but i do hope . i do hope that the political side, the political parties, you know, the political entities and the military itself. they do realize that something has to give and that end of the day, you know, this country is, is by us is us the people. it's not a select few. and i mean that's my ultimate hope. and i do hope because like you

said, no one wants to remove that said no one wants to go and see more funerals or of kids being shocking to head to be in the neck. it's just, it's, it's, it's too much for any of us and it's taking, it's still bad. the, with the determination to keep fighting, to keep up. the flight is still there. i don't, i don't think they will receive any time soon. and i also spoke to jonas horner international crisis group, step the project, trying to for the horn of africa. and he explained what the generals and sit down hoping to achieve. the generals are very keen on legitimacy and establishing legitimacy that they had hoped would come or even before the crew by a promise to all the cabinets, so that they could deliver a more favorable government into into power and stay strong. and now he appears to have access to the very agreement that was essentially on the

table even ahead of the 2. i think you know, that is key. the military have always been concerned about things like losing their economic advantages to them. they own key sectors of the economy, and they're also concerned about the justice for crimes committed during and since the era. and that also plays full circle in their concerns about legitimacy. if they are tar with those accusations, they will find it much harder to be politically relevant to going forward either during or, or, or after about. she's what are the implications of public sentiment in the country turning against abdullah honda as a result of this engagement with the military? could it? we can the protest movement if they were to be completely leaderless. yes. well, look, had been something of a political hero during his, for weeks of the whole down to after, he'd been arrested as, as the qu, sweat through cartoon in particular. but his capitulation now and

a willingness to agree to an agreement that really doesn't do great things for the street and certainly does not respond to the demands that those in the local neighborhood resistance committees. and those on the street have been shouting, shouting about, and in the last 3 or 4 weeks for which, you know, at least 40 people have been killed. now he will find himself, i suspect, very quickly, something of a political career. you know, all this has happened to leave negotiations happen on a very uneven plainfield has had very little access the outside world. he may not have any had any real sense of what the street had hoped he would do. and so this very nature of this agreement, you know, comes, you know, through, through a very imbalance process. and because of the co and that the military pcsing power among forgot, the mistrust has deepened even more. is it anything the generals can do at this point to try and would build credibility with the people without actually willing

pushing power? no, i don't think there is. i think that's the most or is participation in the transitional period was always premised on what appears to be the folly of expecting the military to, to walk away and show a level of magnanimity to, to move away from, from power that they poll, held for 50 to 65 years of independence and for them to hand over peacefully and happily to a nation. but, you know, the qu, am, s, subsequent events have shown the military has buried or less trust in doing that. you know, i think there were space to, to address military concerns. most interested justice about the economy, about legitimacy and even potential participation in future politics. but this is not the way to go about it, and the way the military has played its hand through the crew and subsequently has made them, you know, where the rise with these people. poland has once again called on better ways to

stop sending, assign him so as towards his or death. it's now threatening to stop on trains carrying goods from that are way into the european union on thursday. officials in batteries k to make shift camp along the border and the hundreds of people to and the at my warehouse set. lawson has more from the better washington of bush, kate, near border with poet so desperate to be able to leave. everyone is often we, when germany will open its board, us and take them in. we have around 2000 people here still stuck between the 2 borders. they basically are not allowed to leave and also not allowed to enter the whole. and so they've been here, they have camped in the forest, it's now very cold rainy and they have given some kind of shelter. but it's also interesting to know that what they are telling me off camera is very different story that what they're being telling on camera,

they say to have very frightening situations here. they're very worried about how they are going to be treated even if they are trying to cross the border. they tell you, some people are being taken up my forced to cross into poland as we know every day . still people are being found on the other side of the border, which is just 3 kilometers away for crossing into poland. many have been captured by the national sovereignty. this is the room hall where it all been taken to really crammed whole families are here. and what we are also noticing is that a group of disabled people are struggled from iraq. specifically because they say there's no health care in our country, and we really need some medical care in europe. so i've seen that people

without mac and wheelchair people with mental disabilities really hope that they can be brought to europe to get some care august. there is jona hall is across the border in poland where the government is adopting a hard line with people attempting to cross into the country. he attended the funeral of one man who didn't survive that johnny not much is known about 37 year old mustafah. i'll write me or how he came to be buried in the corner of a muslim graveyard in eastern poland. except that he came from yemen, a husband and father of 2 who froze to death on european soil. where are you, like our monarchy? poland didn't stop this crisis in which battle roofs has encouraged thousands to break into the european union. but activists say it has made things worse. basically no help was dying in the forest is always is wrong. so yes,

we believe that governments should actually lead to us and non governmental organization organizations to our job in a border town, a protest against the government's failure to help asylum seekers, especially women and children. and inside the secure zone, off limits to journalists and then jose new laws allow border guards to disregard asylum claims and push back those who make it a cross in breach of international law. so the person who crosses the border and specifically asks for asylum, which is there right under international law, can legally, under polish law, be refused. i'm speaking to the spokes person. proponents, ministry of foreign affairs. we don't support the definition. you mentioned, we don't consider people who cross illegally the border as a person who can apply for an international hope. it means we've got different definition of the international law letter. our lawyers think

a little different than you that can be no more graphic way to illustrate the dangers for people crossing into poland in the european union than another funeral. they've been 11 confirmed deaths in this crisis since mid september. and just a few days ago, a mother rescued in the woods said she'd been forced to abandon the body of her one year old child. since that great wave of arrivals in 2015 right, when governments in europe have used the rhetoric of conflict of hybrid warfare to justify the militarization of borders. these people are stuck on the bellows side, searching the forest for opportunities to cross some of the refugees, others, economic migrants. but all human beings, and none are welcome here. joan, a whole al jazeera on the polish border. watching the news, our life from london still ad for you on the program was 75 percent of the

population in poverty. can venezuela's regional elections bring some relief. i'm gabriel's onto along the border between the united states and canada, where they're cleaning up after a major storm that not only derailed entire trains, but also the supply line between the 2 countries. that story coming up. and one years ago kat, i'll start counting down to the 1st world cup in the middle east. ah, in chile pulls a closing in one of the country's most polarized presidential elections and recent history. millions of people have voted to decide who will succeed. sebastian penny era. a leading candidates are left his congressman gabrielle burridge, and right wing populist jose antonio cast election comes after 2 years of social

unrest and political uncertainty. so if more in this, i latin america and is salisia, newman joins us from a polling station in santiago, tell us how, how the voting has been going today. and what turn out has been like it's been incredibly large, are unusually surprisingly. i would say, i haven't seen this many people come out and vote in chile, i would say, since 1990 when chili returned to democracy. and that's where she's also very significantly a lot of young people that are voting and so much so that it is now 20 minutes past the time when the polls were supposed have closed. and there's still people voting here. they're huge lines all around where i am not so much here, but around the corner will take them at least another 45 minutes before everyone in those lines is able to cast his or her ballad, which just goes to show how much interest enthusiasm, but also fear there is on the part of some about the future of chile because the

options are so absolutely opposed to each other. at least the 2 leading candidates, according to all poles, would be gabrielle bondage. who is a 35 year old leftist former student leader. and protest her who is now a congressman. he is calling for a complete overhaul of chiles, social, political, and economic system to bring about social equality. and his counterpart is jose antonio past, who is the most conservative politician that we have seen running for office in this country since general egleston been ashamed, dictatorship and he in fact, supported the bean oshea dictatorship. he represent law and order of family values are cracking down on undocumented migrant on an indigenous uprising in south central chile and much, much more. for some people, that means turning the cross back 102030 years. for others, it means at least saving the country from the grips of marxist chaos because they

believe that chile could turn into another venezuela or cuba. so those are the 2 opposing side i. there are other candidates to others who are more moderate, but they are from everything we're seeing, they're not doing as well as they had a in the selection. and how has the protest movement of 2019 affected at the way in which people are voting in this election? of course, if people wanted change, it was a protest against the cost of living and deep in a policy. what do they want in this lows? was exactly that, the reason why we're seeing or someone like that body body doing so well and having come this far, it would have been unthinkable a few years ago. but since mil that social upheaval began 2 years ago and it has continued, it wasn't just an event that took place in october of 2019. it's been a constant pressure for chile to bring about social equality. this is the most one

of the most unequal countries in the world, and certainly in latin america, that's not the poorest, but it is the most unequal. and so people have become completely disenchanted with their traditional political parties, their traditional political class. and that explains why someone like that we had bought. it can do somewhat so well. but also someone like will sample in your past who doesn't represent the traditional conservative voice, but rather a real get tough message that people hadn't heard here for a long, long time. thank you so much. our latin america editor lucia newman there. in santiago, chile we go from social and economic inequality in chile to poverty in venezuela. 20000000 people of voting and regional and local elections that having boycotted previous elections of main opposition will be taking part for the 1st time in 4 years. also, a 100 observers from the european union are going to be overseeing the vote at

a 1000 polling stations. president nicholas madura has been accused of electoral fraud in the past and to raise a bose following this story for us. she is in the venezuelan capital, caracas. why is the opposition and decided to participate in this election for the 1st time in 4 years? while we're here outside a polling station and people continue to go inside steadily turn out. it's crucial, especially for the opposition, because this is a chance they have to actually make a difference of what happened over the past years. back in 2019, when opposition leader fung wydell, he cleared himself into rem precedent to challenge for effort on legal law mother to well. and at the time they have the support, for example, a former u. s. president donald trump. well, they didn't achieve much, and that's why a part of the opposition is now asking the population to go out and vote. i don't position is right now divided. some are part of it wants people to go and participate in this election, while another part is actually remaining is silent and just not directly boycotting

the election. but, you know, take it, being extremely careful about how this electric process is going to go on to what's happening right now, is that your position has been given some type of reassurances by the government that will have some type of control over the electoral process for example keeping some witnesses in polling stations, the press, and that is crucial of the european union. this is the 1st time in 15 years that the european union is present. here, there are present in 22 states across the country. they have been monitoring the electoral campaign since october, seeing how the campaigns were handled. how can they went across the country? so human rights like 1st legal experts, this election is morning for them. that's why it's a part of the opposition is actually participating. and what for minute is a country that's been in an enormous economic crisis. millions have left the country in back, 7 years ago, this country judy be shrunk around 75 percent,

and that's who think around 80 percent of the population into poverty. so for many, this election is crucially crucial as a way to show where there's some type of dialogue between the opposition and the government. it's possible whether very can become type of a gaining trust in this country's institution. and the electoral council, which has now 2 members of the opposition in it. so it's very, very important also to see whether there's a chance that there's going to be president elections in 3 years. when nicole, that's my time is over. so lots of people are paying attention to the results. lots of people are paying attention to what you will be and union has to say about this whole electoral process so that you is going to be closely watched and know totally by the government when you call that mother would. but also by the opposition. all right, thank you very much with the latest from correct categories above police and the belgian capital brussels of his tear gas on
