increased but also a perception witness on just ah, promising a technocratic government focused on democratic transition. sedans, reinstated, prime minister, the la handled speaks exclusively to edges. you know, after deal with the military. ah, boy, i'm hasn't think of this is live from the house or coming up a polarized presidential vote in chile. the main contenders are left this activists and a far right x congressmen. venezuela's opposition takes part in elections there for

the 1st time since 2017. as voters chief governors and mayor and one year to kick off call to stop counting down to the 1st world cup in the middle east. ah. hello. we begin in sudan where an agreement has been signed to reinstate to pose leader of the la handbook as prime minister. the military sees power nearly a month ago general. and the fact that both agreed to the plan transition to civilian rule. it's not clear how much power the new government will have in the largest opposition coalition is refusing to recognize any agreement the shares power with the military. when he spoke exclusively to al jazeera and the restored prime minister, the la handbook explaining what the new government will eventually look like, as fickle as he'll be in her home and read him in the cold concept of the upcoming

government, is that it will be a technocratic government made up of sudanese qualified professionals who then about with one and a half years are left out of the transitional period. the whole, the upcoming government, according to me, should focus on very specific issues, chiefly the completion of transition into a democracy. and it's related obligations, like the convenience of the constitutional conference and holding the elections. you all know that the elections were required. one full year at least, may drag on for one and a half years. i hope we can all agree on an independent government. they're going to crowds during the remaining time of the transitional period, where as government would lead the country until the scheduled elections go when assessing has developed a new party, new cannady. this is a key part of the political agreement we saw. you said was that the prime minister

should have the power and authority to fall, an independent technocratic government in absolute liberty and without any pressure . this is what we sign the agreement for an hour, then a conflict has a model. and i'd like to speak, frankly. i don't have any personal ambitions to remain a figurehead or to join a particular party or group or to gain higher popularity. i'm all driven by the responsibility placed on my shoulder. i'm guided only by the ambitions and hopes of the 3rd and his people. therefore, i have made up my mind and science their political agreement, although i know that many may disagree objective or rejected simply because the people's ambitions and aspirations were much higher than the moment. however, i signed it and i read to read that i do not have any personal game. otherwise i wouldn't have accepted the office in the 1st place with all the challenges over the

past 2 years. the issue of personal gain does not worry me at all. i believe the decision i made is correct and to the best interest of the people. that's why i went forward and signed the political agreement. and you can watch the full interview with sedans, reinstated prime minister of the la handbook on talk to. i just data on monday at $730.00 g m t i have a morgan has more now on the day's events from heart to a breakthrough incidence political crisis nearly a month after military takeover and the solution of the transitional government on sunday military leader general admin fee that albert han and the post prime minister of the lamb duke signed an agreement that paved the way for him took to be reinstated as a defer. when i signed this political agreement, i was guided by a number of key principles. chiefly, among them is to avoid further bloodshed. our people are prepared to sacrifice more,

but every drop of blood is precious. 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 were 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 hon who cited political divisions as the reason for his taking power as the deal will lead to dialogue to end those divisions. retort your logo us, yasser. we've been living in crisis for a long time. and by signing this declaration, we were able to establish a real foundation for a transitional period as envisioned fall. so that has been governed by a power sharing agreement between the military and the political coalition, known as the forces of freedom and change since august 2019. but the months leading to the recent military takeover. so tensions between the 2 sides,

both accused each other of slow economic recovery and lack of judicial reforms. the agreement signed between ham dog and general behind may have reinstated ham dog as prime minister. but it doesn't mean the end of the dance political crisis. since the takeover nearly a month ago, there have been processed nearly every day with people demanding an entirely civilian government and an enter the partnership between the military and civilians . sanders deal means the military remains as a governing partner and that has angered many here. thousands protested near the presidential palace and cartoon before the signing the deal. authorities responded by firing tear gas, and live ammunition in the air. at least, 40 protested have been killed since the military took over and more than $200.00 injured. the forces of freedom and change which nominated ham duke as prime minister back in 2019 has distant itself from the deal. and analysts said they 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 suddenly they had to do a 180 degrees return. that doesn't mean that the prime minister was suddenly the roller of the land. but what it means is that there is a momentum, suddenly not in favor of the generals, but rather on the favor of the street. but as you said, we will see where it will mistake us, because there are a number of dynamics at play here. there's the military, there's a street, there's the neighbors and the african union, and there's the international community. for now, the dan takes another uncertain step in its transition. people morgan onto 0 cartoon. a vote saw now being counted in one of chiles most polarized presidential elections and recent history. men said decided who they want to succeed. sebastian pierre of the leading contenders are outside the traditional political parties. a congressman and former student protest lead a gabrielle boric is pitted against far right populist jose antonio cast. and the election comes after 2 years of social unrest and political uncertainty or latin

america editor only see a newman is following the story for us live in santiago. so to see the poles of close vote counting is started. how does it look so far? well it's looking like a whole sounds on your past is doing far better in this 1st round than expected with more than 40 around 40 percent of the votes cast counted. i'm sorry, he has so far. 28.8 percent of the vote. and his main contender body from the left wing as 24 point to 12. this is still early. i mean we'll have 30 percent only 40 percent. i think that's the point of the votes cast. that may or may not determine the tendency between now and when the final tally comes in. but an interesting things that young feature who was the center right wing chair that is represented the governing coalition of

president vignette as expected to recognize his defeat very shortly at his campaign headquarters much earlier than they normally do. and the same will probably be true for yes, not provost. who represents the center left. what this means is then that the candidates that represent both extremes of the political spectre are going to belong to a 2nd round in december. it's very, very unlikely indeed that either one of them will be able to get 50 percent plus one of the votes in this 1st round. but that what really, that leaves the whole election opened. it doesn't make any closer to knowing who is going to be governing julie next year, because there is so many pounds and there are so many factors out there, for example, who will the votes that went to the central candidate for 2 or people who didn't vote who will they vote for a 2nd round?

we're going to have to, is going to be a lot of. so searching about what happened to julie's traditional political parties when this is over. and as you're saying that seem to be some stop choices for, she lay and hear how polarized is the country right now? well, from what we're seeing, it could not be more polarized. we have bought a student, a former student leader who is currently a congressman who represents a revolutionary change for the countries social change. and that he is also the spokesman for the millions of children who took to the streets in 2019 it's been part of the social unrest that has been, we've seen into the now for more than 2 years. and that is the count proposed by my phone, your cars, who is seen as an absolute step backwards almost of the days, but not quite of general abuse. stopping shayhu, he once supported during the dictatorship,

he is the law and order candidate if he is a man who defends family values, he's against abortion. is a, he's against all the things that w bought it just. and some of the more moderate people in the city whose candidate was not selected defend. so it is, it is a very polarized situation. indeed. all right, for the moment, let's see a newman life 1st. there in santiago are 2 people have been kidnapped in 2 people who work in not in haiti last month have been released that's according to christian aid ministries. they were among 17 missionaries from the us and canada including 5 children, abducted close to the capital porto prince. 5 weeks ago their names and current location have not been released but they are apparently safe and in good health. phil laval. a is live force in washington. the following is force from nasa for what more we're hearing very little, you know,

has him and that's by design really. it's a very brief statement. they say that they've learned that these 2 hostages have been released. as you say, they are safe and well, and that is it, there is absolutely nothing in terms of identity or age or nationality. in fact, the group says that anybody on the ground who does hold that information, they want matt to keep them to themselves. because remember, this is still a very precarious situation for the 15 or so people who are still being held there . so as i say that the keep these details very, very close. but what is particularly interesting is the wording here, because this statement says, these 2 hostages have been released. it doesn't refer to them as being rescued. it doesn't refer to them as being fried, which implies or suggests at least that their captors release them voluntarily. now this could be for a number of reasons, it could be down perhaps to a health issue. it could be down to a ransom being paid even though the official policy from the us side is the ransoms are not paid or, or it could be for other reasons. but we do know that the state department, the f b i has been working behind the scenes constantly with haitian authorities. you

know, this story broke our mid october. it was all over the news then it's been not so much in the news over the last few weeks, but behind the scenes efforts have been continuing daily. we know the president biden has been getting daily briefings, and as i say, still a very precarious situation for those people who are still being held. all right, thanks phil. phil of our lifers there in washington are still head to on al jazeera, desperate for food. hundreds of asylum seekers they put on the bell roost. poland border hoping to cross into the e. ah hello. we have got side to some west to where the pushing towards british columbia over the next a day or 2. we have got this little area cloud. just running up towards pacific northwest eating up into that western side of canada. i think like is wet is it has

been recently, but it saturated ground, of course. so that will add to the flooding concerns here. be more of a central parts cold air digging in piling outs of 1st central canada sliding further south was now the band of cloud and rain pushing further east was, is that cooler weather we have minus 8 the top temperature in winnipeg. we'll see that or warming up over the next day or so. monday we get up to minus 7 proper warm up. by the time we come to tuesday, we getting just above freezing. so that's something to look forward to. it will be largely dry. that wet weather, moving across the eastern seaboard through a monday, dry weather coming in behind a few wintry flowers around the legs. and there's that wet weather add at times, wintery weather for b, c, and the north west of us. so washington state, seeing some of that when you mix as well, which will drive its way a little further east, was moving across the cascades through the rockies, becoming a little lighter as it does so. meanwhile, into the caribbean, this light you find it dry for the east, not as set. fair haven present sunshine,

sunshine is showers further west. ah, an african narrative. mm. from african perspective. a new theories of short documentaries, by african filmmakers. from across the continent. this has been really good to let her head down africa direct. coming soon on al jazeera pick. lou. ah,

are you watching al jazeera reminder of our top stories to sell? reinstated, sudanese prime minister, abdullah handled promises of technocratic government to ease a democratic transition. and duke says he's guided by the ambitions of the sudanese people. as he spoke exclusively to al jazeera after reaching a deal with the military. 2 missionaries kidnapped in haiti last month have been released that's according to christian aid ministries. they were among 17, from the us and canada. we're a doctor close to the capital. puerto prince 5 weeks votes of being counted in one of chiles most polarized presidential elections in recent history, millions of decided who was succeed. sebastian pinero, the leading contenders are outside the traditional political parties. well, as we said, pulse are now puzzling our closing and venezuela where millions have voted in

regional and local elections. the main opposition is taking part for the 1st time in 4 years having boycotted previous elections, 100 observers from the european union overseen the vote. at 1000 polling stations president nicholas madura has been accused of electoral fraud in the past. let's speak now to teresa bowes. she's lived in the capital, could cause a force. so teresa, why did the opposition choose to participate this time? well, we're here now at the national electro council. this is a place where we're going to be coming in and what's important for the opposition is that it's been a crisis, is back in 2019. let's not forget what's been happening in the country and spend that propositional leader. one way, though, declared himself in or impressed it and challenging nicola mother with him being recognized by many countries around the world, trying to pressure nicola to step down. this was happening with the support. a

former us breasted, and donald trump. well, you call that mother is still empower that where i negotiation on go. there was any vocational going in mexico between the opposition and the governments, but those talks were suspended. so now they have a chance to participate in this election. it's a way of moving forward. the opposition is divided while some of them want to participate in the elections. others are against it. very state that they do not trust that the government in a way will keep voice words. we're being told that what's important for the opposition right now is several things among them is that they have been guarantee that they'll be witnesses at the polling station. the other thing is that the electoral council has 2 members of the opposition i'm. that's the guaranteed way. and of course, if you just mentioned the presence of international, of servers and a 100 members of the european union, i present here for the 1st time in 15 years controlling the elections. they're

deployed over the country across 22 states. their legal expert, human rights lawyers among others who are controlling the election today. and that report is what many people here are expecting. and what can we expect when can we expect results them while we so we have a partial reform this evening and then it may take several days for the motor space . and then we felt there to start coming in. but what's important for many is, as i said before, is the report the initial report by the european union. and that report is expected on tuesday for many. this is something that could pave the way towards the future presidential election that should happen in venezuela in 2024. we are, we're told that we've been hearing the government's being critically in a way of the european union fretted and has already set up. they're not here to

validate the elections that the europeans alright, unfortunately we appear to have lost our connection to today. so there are policies for that will move on to poland is accusing bella bruce of continuing to ferry migrants to his board despite clearing camps there. early of the suite, the polish prime minister toward the baltic states drama, european support in the diplomatic crisis. he's calling bela riches actions. the biggest threat to european stability in 30 years and situation for migrants is getting increasingly desperate. general reports from the polish border 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? there are so like, i'm on okay, hold on. didn't stop this crisis in which bell ruth has encouraged thousands to

break into the european union, but activists say it has made things worse. basically, no pilgrim dying in the forest is always wrong. so yes, we believe that governments should at least 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 a 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 for poland, 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 the 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. jonah,

haul al jazeera on the polish border of police in belgium's capital, have use tear gas and water cannons on protests. as angry about kobe 19 restrictions, tens of thousands joined the march in brussels. it began peacefully, but some demonstrated later threw rocks and smoke bombs. comes off, the government announced new restrictions with additional measures for the unvaccinated. austrians have been enjoying their last day before another nationwide lockdown comes into effect. their restaurants and most shops will close for at least 10 days. people will have to stay at home unless they are buying food, going to the doctor or exercising. andrew simmons has more from the capital vienna . they're making the most of it while they still can, because when lockdown comes, all of this shots and everything nearby as well, this christmas market where the mood right now is reasonable. although people face

what is a whole raft restrictions like the walls previously? that's no leaving home unless it's essential. working from home, schools will remain open. but really most places, again to find there is a full lockdown. but not only that, there is defense in the strength there is. there was a demonstration on saturday, tens of thousands turned out and it wasn't just the lockdown. they were protesting against people feel really strongly about mandatory vaccines like nations having to be given from february the 1st onwards. because the 3rd of, of australia is population is around 8000000 haven't be vaccinated, and that's one of the core issues on why this is such a high rates of cove. it and daily death rates in recent weeks have tripled. so the situation is getting more or more serious and the whole of europe will be watching

this to see what sort of effect a compulsory lockdown has. everyone wondering what the future holds. the interior minister has said that a watch has to be kept on demonstrations by no means they've been violent as in the netherlands. but the interior minister says that the far right is organizing this resistance. amongst them. a known near novices or heavy flooding has disrupted supply chains in western canada and the us it's from to the canadian province of british columbia to pose restrictions on fuel. gabriel, alexander reports from the board of town of sucrose in the u. s. state of washington. when the heaviest of the reigns started falling, swelling and flood waters surging. the force of the water took down anything in its path, including a freight train. this is all that is left of what has long been

a major rail line. running through the town of su, mass connecting the northwest of the united states with british columbia canada. the loaded rail cars were toppled by the force of the water. the steel tracks washed away and in some parts twisted beyond use. some of these rail cars were carrying products and foreign produce. others were loaded with lumber. we have a lot of our industrial part businesses that rely on that railway to transport items where they're going to canada or south on the railway through the other parts of the state. the longer the railroad is down and not able to do that transportation. it's just going to hurt the business is here, the rely on that. it's never a good time for a freight train to derail. but now more than ever, already supply chains are stressed at the port of vancouver about 75 kilometers

northwest of here. there is already congestion with a backlog of cargo ships and many roads around vancouver have been washed out. add to that these train derailments and you've got a supply chain that went from stressed to completely broken rail officials have begun the difficult task of writing the fall in train cars. but it will take weeks to get the track completely fixed and likely even longer for this western corner of the us and canadian border to even get back to normal. gabriel is aniko hodges eda su mass washington. i katara is mocking one year till the 1st match kicks off for the 2022. free for will come account down clock has been unveiled that a celebration in the capital. doha, the golf country has been preparing for the tournament since winning the bid in 2010. it will be the 1st time woke up with we played in a middle east nation doors, jabari reports. ah,
