9:01 pm
this is al jazeera ah kellogg's. the whole rahman, you're watching the out. there were news our live from our headquarters here in doha, coming up in the next 60 minutes. a british judge rules, the government can go ahead with his plan to deport asylum seekers to rwanda. outrage and parts of asia, thousands demand the arrest of a suspended member of india's governing party. after comments about the prophet mohammed, also a surgeon inflation in the u. s. a price is sold by the fastest pace in more than 4 decades. and the u. s. involves a series of measures to confront the migration crisis of the summit of the americas with latin american and caribbean leaders. and i'm he to stay with your sport, a power struggle in the game of golf. that's off the pga tour suspends players. you've decided to join the live specs by saudi arabia.
9:02 pm
ah welcome to the news of the u. k. high court as rule that the government can go ahead with its plan to send asylum seekers to rwanda. the court rejected arguments from the human rights groups that the policy is unlawful. the 1st flights from the u. k to ruined or are scheduled for next week. that he baba joins us live now from london is outside the high court right now nadeem a decision that really upholds the governments to you that they can deport asylum seekers and one that will be received with dismay. i'm sure by many rights groups was a hell got lost pots, right. the refugee support groups that were bringing this legal action are certainly disappointed. but it's very important to specify exactly what's happened . this hearing was about
9:03 pm
a deportation flight scheduled for next tuesday for a some of the around 130 asylum seekers in detention here in the u. k. had been told that they would be eminently sent to rwanda. the decision here rejects the injunction against that. the it basically says, yes, you can send people, you can put people on a flight on choose day. it did not look at the wider plan and challenges to it's lawfulness, which the year charities want to happen in the coming months spot. the judge here did say that he would allow the groups to appeal his decision. it's expected that that will happen. on monday. he said in a justifying his decision, it was important that the home secretary, pretty patel, or be able to implement immigration decisions, in other words, put into practice what they have already decided in terms of next tuesday's flight
9:04 pm
. but the judge also set a 2 day hearing for next month, where as far as i understand, those groups will actually be able to push for a view of the widest scheme of this agreement between the british government and the rwandan government, which would see people have arrived here, a via boat across the english channel. since the start of the year sent for processing in raw wonder in a successful they would then be allowed to stay in rwanda to have refugee status. so it's basically, it's not of shoring it's telling people that they will be able ever to set foot again in britain. visa, refugee support groups say that the people who are on the list are extremely worried. there have been hunger strikes in detention centers here. people with mental health is suffering. and in court today, the united nations,
9:05 pm
a refugee agency, the you and hcr actually m let their support to the opponents of the plan, saying that the you and hcr did not agree in principle with the ruined esteem. because it did not meet in letter or spirits the 1951 un refugee convention. so that seems to be a very clear statement by the un that they have severe misgivings about, for example, the facilities in place in rwanda and the asylum system there. and furthermore, m, what kind of a treatment or people might get it while they're actually having their, their process m very claims processed in kigali, a bit of uncertainty at the moment. for now, the judge has said that flight can happen, but it's quite possible in the coming days that at least a large proportion of the people do to be on it will actually get their names taken
9:06 pm
off that happen for a few of them even before the are hearing finished here on friday that he, barber and london. thanks so much cause we'll continue to monitor for more comment throughout the news allen on this breaking news story. thanks for that, sir. follow another one of our top stories today in protest. as in india, pakistan and bangladesh demanding the rest of the former spokeswoman for india's governing b. j. p. nuclear sharma, as she was suspended on sunday after making comments about the prophet mohammed that many consider offensive, the tory gate can be repulse. in various cities from delhi, ah taylor who to deca to jakarta. oh was in worship is gathered as to friday. prayers to lose that opposition to comments made by an indian politician. yet not real. protesting as an indian woman made bad comments about the character of our beloved
9:07 pm
prophet mohammed. so we are here. nepal sharma is the target of their anger. the former spokeswoman for india's governing b. j. p. made comments about the prophet mohammed during a tv debate. the many say were derogatory, protest is want her arrested for hate speech. we don't know about some your you but i gave you the one for only one police complaint has been laws against no poor sharma. and despite that she has not been arrested. let. if she should be arrested as soon as possible and stringent action should be taken against her, shellman has been suspended while the parties media head in new delhi levine. qu margin, dell has been expelled. he's also accused of making insulting remarks. the b j. p says it strongly denounces insults against any religion sect to ideology, but the backlash is growing. the prime minister of india a should thumb or an address, the nation i would say are particularly the 200000000 muslims. and i tried to assure them that they will, their advice and freedoms will be protected in india,
9:08 pm
as guaranteed by the constitution. countries in the gulf region including cattle, andy ran, have summoned india's envoys and demanded a public apology. but these protest is wont more. they want to push sharma, arrested, charged and prosecuted. the comments they say are offensive to islam. victoria gate and be al jazeera, well happy when jacob business says he, professor of diplomacy and disarmament studies a jo, are long narrow university. he says india can't afford to lose trade ties with golf nations. india has about 9000000 office because it's working in the middle east. $40000000000.00 us dollars is the rabbit coming doing the every year and 60 percent of india? oil or energy comes from the middle east and region and i didn't find them. it was where the recording from the onslaught of the find to make it be a simply cannot afford to lose this kind of a business and connectivity with,
9:09 pm
with the middle east, we recently find a fee that agreement with the way we are in the goal with the office of counsel for a free period agreement. and so your way you look at it, this is a very, very important message. if i'm, if it is in the middle east, start banning indian products that they're in the countries that they can get going to be the problem. so this is, this is a crunch time for the leaders that we have to get recept against the those guilty and reach out to these countries and tell them that this will not be repeated in future and bring them back. so will be taken against the inflation in the united states says that a 40 year high consumer prices jumped 8.6 percent in may compared to last year, even more than economists had expected. soaring petrol prices have been blamed with the man colliding with persistent supply shortages. an interest rate rise is
9:10 pm
expected to come in next week in response and again in july. but even more pressure on us households, less cars over 2 whitehouse correspond that can be how kit, who's standing by and kimberly we were expecting the president to speak on this subject. what we hearing yeah, the earth president is speaking at the port of los angeles. currently he's been talking about how he recognizes this is a real strain on american families. but in terms of solutions so far we haven't heard anything new from the president. the president continues to point fingers at vladimir putin saying that this is a potent price hike. not really mentioning the fact that the part of the reason that we do have high energy cost has a lot to do with western sanctions. and the fact that there is a driving up of energy costs, in part because of a lack of russian production. and that has,
9:11 pm
in part contributed to these costs. and also the fact that we are seeing the spillover effect of that in terms of high food costs as well. so that is one factor that the president is not mentioning. and the other factor is that the president is talking about some of the things that he has done to blunt in his words, the prudent price hike. that is, he's released some of the strategic petroleum reserve. he's also working with europe to release some of the grain that is trapped in ukraine right now as a result of the russian invasion of ukraine in order to address some of the food scarcity that is also driving up food prices. but again, these are issues that are going to take some time to address, and that is not going to deal with the eminent crisis that we're feeling not just globally, but here in the united states. as we've seen, record high inflation, not only this month, but projected in the coming months as well. so this is a real problem for the u. s. president. this is
9:12 pm
a 40 year high in terms of inflation and it doesn't appear to be turning around. in fact, what we're seeing as a result of all of this is not only americans increasingly frustrated because they're hearing from the president that things are find that this is a strong job market. this was supposed to be transitory, that they're struggling and they're heat continually being told that things are going to get better and they're not. and that's why americans seem to be now turning to taking matters into their own hands. so much so that we've seen american start to turn to theft that's leading to a spike in crime, they're stealing often, the ordinary things. they can no longer afford, for example, laundry detergent to wash their clothes. i and that's leading to even a parallel economy. so this is a real crisis and is so far there don't seem to be any solutions coming from the right, the white house. and that is really where americans are looking right now for answers and ed pearson, this latest speech from the president. they're not getting the answers they were
9:13 pm
hoping for. we'll come back to you for more analysis as we get to. kimberly hunker, though, a white house correspondent has continued a conversation with robert kemp. he's the chief executive officer of geo economics . us at global economics and strategy advisory firm, and he chose me not los angeles, could help you with sir on the program conscious. begin with the fact that thank you. the u. s. c is, you know, heading towards the dreaded all word recession and that the president has some real thinking to do about how to possibly stave it off. well, i think an important point to be made that your recessions aren't and aberration. we're so used to the fast charging crows that we've just become an amor with this idea. thanks continually grow. but in fact, processions are a natural process in economy. there's nothing indicating that the u. s. is headed for a really drastic drop off and growth. so, you know, the recession is going to be happening. that seems to be consensus that will probably happen next year. and i would say that there's not
9:14 pm
a lot the president or anyone could do to stop that other than try to mitigate it. and i think that that's more likely than not despite some very strong so that things are looking quite bad. i don't think they really are. so of course we're talking about that inflation and that's running away out of control is out of control a to, to magic a phrase to use that. how does that linkage with recession? well that's not necessarily in this case because indeed, i mean we have to look at the numbers that you know, 8.6 percent in place or 6 percent. if you use about food and a fuel is very large, i'm not denying that. but it's not surprising. you've got an unusual convergence. so the external factors, everything from the lingering effects of cove it into regards a one is supply chain bottlenecks and shocks, particularly out of china, plus 5 trillion dollars. stimulus that the u. s. government prize, which made a lot of sense at the time, but it is now just contributing to the super charging economy, plus indeed, what's been happening with russia's invasion of ukraine. so all of these factors,
9:15 pm
you know, when you take them in context, isn't that surprising that you see this level of inflation and it is significant, but i don't think it's going to be as long lasting as people feel. i think we're at the peak right now. to get out of you might say recession or to help inflation. sometimes you need consumer confidence and confidence in consumer spending. what, what are the chances of that? how do we analyze that in the short and long term when it comes to the united states? but it's really complex because on the one hand we have very positive indicators, you know, you've got wage in place, which means wage growth. so people are getting more money for the jobs are doing this. a tight labor market that's all positive. the negative is that indeed prices are going up. so even with the increase in wages, your dollar isn't buying as much. so it's really kind of sort of contradictory, of course, is overall, the debt effect is yes, consumers are losing some confidence and that will build in the end probably
9:16 pm
produced the necessary effect of cooling a spending and help. yes, it would bring about a read or readjustment of the economy which can lead to a recession. but it's not, you know, a huge drop off either. so i think it's, it's part of this process of really adjusting the economy. so it gets back on track of the lp level of growth. do we have to local, analyze at the way that the treasury in the us central bank comes into play here? in terms of the way interest rates can sometimes be increased because that inevitably hits the consumer and their pocket when it comes to spending. and again, we come into that full circle again of consumer confidence, especially when we're heading toward very important elections later on this year. yes, yeah, and that's, i mean, i would say that's more the issue here is political than anything else. so the white house at the democratic party are very concerned because people not feeling
9:17 pm
good about the state of the county that that's absolutely true. and when interest rates keep rising, people feel, well, credit is bus easy to access, targeted by a home. that's also, you know, a negative. but these are the sorts of things that have to happen. i do say the central bank needs to take action. it is taking action. the bigger criticism has been to the most economists that its action has come too late. and that's why we're feeling these unusual effects right now. but the good news is it's taking action. it looks like it's going to be taking action next week, july and september and hopefully that'll start the process of getting things back on track. that's good to get your analysis, robert cop, their chief executive officer of g a. e comics in los angeles. thanks for your time . so thank you. plenty more had here on the alt is there a news are including china's defense minister wards of war. in response to any independent, sped by taiwan and a mass movement of asylum seekers heading north through mexico to the us border slows to a halt and lay transport with her back from quarterback tom brady. on his return
9:18 pm
from a 6 week retirement. ah, leaders from the united states, latin american and the caribbean, have agreed on a number of measures to prevent uncontrolled migration to the united states. the details are expected to be announced later on friday at the end of the summit of the americas in los angeles. but leaders from the countries that account for the largest flow of migrants to the u. s, which includes venezuela, mexico, and several central american countries are not present at the summit. while in a moment we'll have more latin america edited lucy, a newman, who is in the chilion capital santiago, profess as crossover to rob reynolds, whose at the summit of the americas in los angeles are rob, what are the details? are we hearing about this u. s. proposal to deal with migration and how it's got an impact on its neighboring
9:19 pm
countries in latin america, the caribbean and south america. well, so hail, according to some points, the white house is put out for journalists. this will have 3 pillars or 33 legs of the tripod, in this declaration that will be unveiled later on today on migration. one is essentially burden sharing a number of central and south american states will agree to streamline the path for temporary protected status of migrants in their countries and make it more appealing for migrants to go to those countries. rather than all heading to the united states are all. busy heading to columbia are all heading to to g lay. the united states is going to put up $339000000.00 sent to global and,
9:20 pm
and regional lending institutions in order to finance all of this. second, countries have agreed to absorb higher numbers of refugees and temporary workers. for example, mexico is going to integrate 20000 refugees into its workforce and employment over the next 3 years. the u. s. has pledged to resettle $20000.00 refugees in the next fiscal year. that's a fairly low number, and certainly lucy can can speak to the vast numbers of refugees who are flowing not only in the united states but, but other countries in the region as well. the u. s. will also facilitate family unification for haitians and cubans. their families living in the united states. now the 3rd leg of this chair is my, is border enforcement. the u. s. pledges to improve the efficiency and the fairness of processing migrants at its southern border and other points of entry into the united states. the u. s. will also lead
9:21 pm
a multi lateral law enforcement sting operation intended to disrupt human trafficking at work. so that's the basic just there are other details and we'll learn more as the day goes along. the seems it's, it's not only seems unlikely, but it's simply not going to and unlawful migration. the forces behind that are too strong. but it is something that we can say has been agreed to by a number of countries and working together here, including mexico, which as you mentioned is not being represented here in the migration is at record levels. it is a big political form in president biden side, so at least he gets to go to the american people and say, look, i have disagreement for, for his own political protection. but i've, we've seen all the numbers in the great reporting that al jazeera has been doing on
9:22 pm
this subject. over the past several days, we've seen the vast numbers of people in those caravans coming north from, from the central american states. and it's not going to stop completely anytime soon. sale, thanks very much. the update to rob nichols will continue to follow events with you from los angeles through the day. let's go over to our latin america disability and human who's standing by in santiago, chile is capital, had what rob said, they are obviously about the potential options. an offer that present by this making to his american counterpart across the continent is going to please some, it's not gonna please everybody that was at least know it well, because there has been a lot of a pressure, a lot of interest also on, on everyone's part to should do what they call, share the burden of this migration crisis, just so that you have an idea. there are at least 5000000 venezuelans here in south
9:23 pm
america. about another 1000000 probably in europe and in the united states and canada. the numbers are huge. statistics that we just heard from rob just are simply, are not going to do the trick. they're not going to have much of it impacted to a good start. it's better than nothing. that's what leaders will tell you. but especially small countries like costa rica or bigger countries like columbia that have millions and millions of undocumented venezuelan migrants there. this amount of money, 238000000, is just not as a drop in the bucket. but of course, lucy will continue to follow what's going on. what's really interesting is that to one of the players that isn't at the summit is actually in iran right now. yes, that's right. i just to clarify, to our viewers, the reason that the mexican president is not attending and several other countries
9:24 pm
are boycotting the summit. is because president biden, as the host decided not to invite the, the leaders of venezuela in nicaragua and cuba. and so, nicholas, nevada, the president of the new sway law is not only not going, but he seems to be sort of not, but by no coincidence at all arriving in iran in his way, perhaps of as sort of wagging his tongue at president biden. and telling him if you don't want me, i certainly have other places where i can go. and the irony of all this is that if president biden had invited nicholas my ludo, he probably would not have con, they had already sent. so even before he was that he was barred from attending and the reason is that he could be arrested if you went to the united states because the treasury department has our sanctions against him. he would have risked arrest in los angeles and like in new york if he had attended the united nations where he would have had some sort of immunity. the cb, with our latin america to thanks very much. the group of thousands of asylum

9:27 pm
. we've experienced hunger and thirst. but we have many hopes and dreams of arriving at our destination. it's a long road toward the mexican capital. once there, they'll only be a few days away from arriving on the doorstep of the united states. with their transit visas in hand, many migrants will continue north aboard buses like the one we're on. now. those traveling without the necessary paperwork, run the risk of being detained and sent back to southern mexico to start their journey again. monopoly al jazeera g up as mexico. china's defense minister way thing says that beijing will not hesitate to start war if taiwan declared independence. now he's been meeting us defense. secretary lloyd austin at an asian security conference. jessica washington has more from singapore in singapore, a highly anticipated gathering came to a close speaking after meeting with the us secretary of defense,
