4:02 pm
both sides will re appoint ambassadors for the 1st time in 4 years. but the turkish government says despite the foreign relations, it won't be abandoning the palestinian cause of russell said it is life for us now in a stand bowl at russell. can you give us an idea of just how significant this is? well, the full, the restoration of the diplomatic relations between the anchor and tell of it as it is quite a milestone in relations between day 2 companies. and this is coming off the intense told between the, the israeli, and the turkish officials to do the last year. so both countries have enough reasons to, to, to normalize the relations for when israel is, is facing the regional trans turkey is facing the regional tress, particularly israel is regarding iran as, as security threat ends regards turkey. busy also to be a counterbalance to distress for turkey, it is facing the threats from them. it is mediterranean,
4:03 pm
and particularly in syria and having these rally support in these fields is going to be beneficial for and kind of this is across perspective. also. on the other hand, we can see that just that a less than a year to the presidential election in turkey and turkish economy as struggling. so that right, like last year took it hasn't bought own a diplomatic push to, to, to amanda ties with the regional rivals. such as egypt, united, arab emirates, saudi arabia and israel. so these normalization of the relation between anchor until of if should be taken or considered in this context. while there is less than a year to the presidential election. present atlanta for a priority is recovery of the economy and put in good relations with, with these regional powers. he thinks that this is going to have the turkish, the turkish economy just in regards to the timing of why now.
4:04 pm
well, to be honest, this is not a surprise for, for, for those who are following these issues. so the relation between israel and church got frayed in 2008 when israel attacked on guards and killed more than 200. but it seems, but it was the breaking point was the israeli attack on my mom or a floating which killed kentucky to live and enjoy the several others. and right after that, both on credit and tell us if they have the wrong date and basket from the capitals and relations have seen hit that the lowest level or almost the entire history of both countries. but last year, last year, both countries have embarked on that diplomatic push. and you have seen that in march, israeli president isaac has or was in turkey and took his for a minister in may with the israel. damn. the israeli prime minister came to turkey in june, and this is a continuation of this talk and diplomatic for so last time when the right department was not going to both, both
4:05 pm
a ticket for the minister and his right for the ministers retreated that they are going to appoint the ambassadors soon and that was expected. so today we have seen that the decision has been taken by both capitals result. so to thank you very much for that. well, let's take a closer look at the background to the rift between the 2 countries. relations were downgraded in 2010 after israeli commandos killed 10 people when they stormed the turkish vessel bound for garza. then in 2018, both countries expelled each other the invoice in a dispute over israel. the use of deadly force against protest isn't garza more recently relations heaven proved. last november, turkey released and israeli couple who'd been detained and assemble on spying charges and is rarely presidents isaac, his oak, visited turkey in may cooling the trip, the beginning of a new era. well, it's bring in a very b bus on he's an assistant professor and political and the list. he joins us via
4:06 pm
skype from assemble. thank you very much for joining the program for fiscal. can we take it back as to, can you give us just a little bit of context around why diplomatic ties were caught in the 1st place and, and just how that played out? well actually that was the ballistic ties were caught since 2018 when you know, attacked all of the demonstrators actually, they were protesting against us embassy ma, when into jerusalem capital, let's remember that over 60 people got killed as a result. and of course, we should also remember that towards the end of 2018 due to turkey's efforts, international efforts to stop this happening. so it came in a really bad time. so that since then to can just did not have the one with the creation. but of course, as, as you said earlier that there is
4:07 pm
a way to president's visit to our car in march. this year was a turning point in relations because both leaders encouraged by the to develop in or further developed and by the relations. and they signaled very strongly that the relations sooner or later would normalize, caught them cold. in my view, this is as, as a citizen of turkey, this is long overdue. and you know, relations between countries always have ups and downs. and certainly between them and turkey. and, you know, as being in crisis is not paternal friendship is another journal too. so let's remember also last april, there was a scheduled visit to shoulders visit to israel. that was delayed of it, but there were like really concrete steps. so today, yes, it came as a surprise, as you know, in turkey, i'm following the social media, the shock,
4:08 pm
but in fact it has a long history that actually 2 countries tried very hard to rebuild the relation here. but what does to he get out of this while turkey is, i think a very, very important country in the middle east and instrumental for peace and prosperity . this, remember that mediating between, even in the past, israel, syria, when things, when made it bad for syria. so impact the relational despite all these crisis continued. i remember last march, when has a visit to arm cut out? the trade volume was a point $5000000000.00 between the 2 countries. and they, they said they wish to see that it goes over 10000. so there was no on the only economy reason in my view, but actually the good ties between the countries in the pulse benefited the region,
4:09 pm
not almost as a person. i trouble many times from jordan pulse him to, to israel. i benefit and he can see very, very important then was upsetting to see the relation severed in the past. so it is gone. certainly have economy benefits, no doubt about it. tourism will flourish more and more reserve. the tourists will become in the business volumes and maybe military corporation, but that in my view also signifies turkey is kind of steadily becoming powerful abra huh accords. find between the u. s. during the trump administration and the gulf states. and it seems it's, it's really about developing region have very high expectations. so totally been part of it will certainly contribute positively. thank you very much for your insight. that is very, very sent from stan both or can years president
4:10 pm
elect william brito is again calling for unity and says he's ready to get down to the business of governing. he's held a media conference in which he so people have chosen their leaders can years electoral commission gave router 50.4 percent of the vote, but his opponent, rider o'denza is disputing the result saying he will challenge it in court with on tv, squeeze people for all all formats of pay say, we listened to you guys. we want to know when the deadly body of your commitment is going to begin. and i really want to know that the expectation of the people are huge. and therefore, we do not have the doctor or whiskey any time. okay,
4:11 pm
we're going to go live now to malcolm webb, who is in nairobi and has been covering this election when your router didn't mention oh, don't get by name at all in his address. and he spoke directly to the kenyan people about unifying the country. do you think he'll be able to do that though? we, i was talking mostly about what they want to do when it from when they take office . but he was there very much feel good about when speaking with a lot of confidence that that would happen. but it was on tuesday afternoon at ryder, a dinner rejected those results and said that him in his coalition would do everything they could legally and constitutionally to get those results. i return now the constitution gives petition is 7 days after the announcement of results. so there were just 5 days left to file a petition to the supreme court of awaiting to find out. if ryder dang is zeniah coalition, or if other rights groups will file a petitions in it,
4:12 pm
it can be expected at this stage for at least any politically motivated petitioners to keep their cards close to that chest. when this happened last time, 5 years ago, following the election, then rider dingo was at the time leading the opposition. he challenged the election results in court. that petition was submitted right to the last hour before that deadline was met, thus likely say that lawyers are given maximum time to gather evidence and minimum time for any responding to prepare. so we'll be watching over the next few days to see if anyone will be finding a petition up to the deadline, which will come on monday. but when we hit very early on from the independent election, observe is that this was a fear relation. but white has been given to that and have they responded it all to i think is claims
4:13 pm
the election observe is a correlation of observers of rights groups and faith based organization. hearing kenya, what they, excuse me, they took a sample of a 1000 polling station and the data from those polling stations maxed within a margin of error, the data published by the electoral commission. so what they were saying is it shows that the tallying and the counting had been according to that data. you know, it match the match, the sample that they had taken. there would be not the complaint early stages about problems with the electro register. some opposition will tell you, right? everything gets supported on the, on social media in alleging out the kinds of irregularities. we're not really getting any detail from learning is coalition or anyone else that about what those are regular might be. and if they might constitute part of a petition that is submitted to the supreme court, welcome we have in ny road before us. thank you. well there is plenty more hid on
4:14 pm
the news l including you in human rights. chief is conditions and not ride for refugees and bangladesh. to return to me in math, we'll have a live update from zacko. you're standing on the shore after the fact i was steering the ship in the middle of the tempest. undefined astronomy, as former prime minister scott morrison blamed the pandemic secretly holding extra ministry positions and in full plenty of gold from the european champions league. playoffs. all action coming up later on in the, our ah, the united nations new invoice for me, emma is on her 1st visit this and being appoint last year. nolan hayes is expected to meet officials from the military june to,
4:15 pm
to discuss what you in called the deteriorating situation in the country. her visit comes in the same week. aston leader on his own suit. she was convicted on more corruption charges, extending her prison sentence to 17 years with tony king has more from bangkok. well, i think the fate of the un special envoy has decided to go is very significant in itself. we don't know very much about the chip that was not announced with any great panther. i think the world's media found yes, they're very short. notice that she had arrived in the door, me and most capital. we don't know very much about who she's going to see other than that, the military spokesman for the government said that she was expected to see the foreign minister and the leader of the military gentle, general minute lie today. we don't know yet where that happened, but that was scheduled for today. we think she's going to leave tomorrow, but she has always maintained as has her office in the un that for her to go
4:16 pm
certain conditions must be met and that would be that she was allowed to meet all parties concerned in this conflict. now lot of people who saw that as meaning that they were going to insist that she met uncensored. she that appears very unlikely. we don't know, it's not definitely not happen. but i think given the sense that she had another 6 years added to her sentence, to the end of the military seems so committed to keeping her out of any process, including a potential piece process that i think is very unlikely they would have allowed her to meet so i think they're all going to be some big questions. her office is saying that she's not sure how to make any public statement at this stage, but i think a lot of people will be wanting to know what exactly she has been doing there and how this has done it. how this trip is see not just add further legitimacy to the military gentle. well, let's bring in, ne, send to him. he's the co founder of the free we're hanging coalition and global
4:17 pm
network of activists. he joins, as far as skype from frank 1st. i thank you for being on the program. you've been to these refugee camps a number of times. can you just give us an idea of how conditions have deteriorated over that time? well, thank you. we're going to mock and eventually during that you know, side remember and be by next to me. it has been 5. busy and the creation in the can income from the bizarre is exactly like that decreasing we phase and especially the freedom of movement. the refugee are not allowed to go from one, come to another another. the biggest problem is that and then refugee not recognized as refugees. so they don't have any right, as the refugee, the most significant thing is integration of the children. there is no for money for the children. they're called me to do school volunteer vide there. oh,
4:18 pm
enjoy you where order to shut down by the issue already. another significant thing is increase in the safety of their refugee. several creamy know can harassing and attacking their refugee. this must be solved as soon as far as well as the refugee very much calls on about their well being. there are many other thing needed to be addressed to solve the problem. refugee are crazy. we are not blaming the butler, they, she all 24, not fulfilling all that requirement. but what we want to have the international community should give more attention to this refugee and provide more military assistance including s s 2 for my education and their health care. but we've had a lot of talk, but what action is actually needed in order to help solve this,
4:19 pm
this crisis. while you know the best solution for us, we should go back to my went to right. i don't mean just as she does in shipper, i attended reg, betty much important to us recognition of identities necessary we were was recognized by the government as it really and, and we had the flu shot ship. right. so we are not demanding to any new ride for we are demanding a res to our right, right? to return to or a general village that guarantee that there is, there won't be any violence against that really would repeat. so i think i like if we go, that is all these grandy and we can go back another one. very important thing here is we don't want the bilateral agreement, just agreement between the elevation and also know china interfering this
4:20 pm
bilateral agreement. we don't want china, you know, we want about the electrolyte agreement, all the international. i mean, all the government involved or all that country involved or rehabilitation process . so there will be the approach of british to the military re game. and also there will be some grandy for our safety and that are right so that the people can go, but living in the refugee camp full long time is not really good. if there is any right for the refugees that we can consider. we can wait until the situation in the country. thank you very much for your inside. that's nice. and when from frankfurt, just across the border, you in human rights chief michelle by chalet has been visited for a hinge,
4:21 pm
a refugee camps that cox's bizarre and bangladesh marshall. i say the refugees told her they want to go home to neighboring me. and as soon as it's safe, hundreds of thousands of people from the countries muslim minority flayed a violent military crack down in 2017. now more than a 1000000 were hinge a live and one of the world's largest refugee camps with henry county drones. us live now from deca. can you give us some insight into how significant her visit is very significant because it's the 1st time ever a un human rights commissioner has visited bangladesh since its inception of the position 29 years ago. now 2 major issues here. one is the human rights situation in bangladesh. and now there is of course growing at camp and the rowing issue that she visited and got came yesterday. she spoke with several you an agency as the relief, rehab, and effigy, relief and rehabilitation. commissioner and other stakeholder, most importantly,
4:22 pm
she intermixed with intermingled, wither, i'm going to give younger group so as well as the camp elders and leaders. she emphasized the fact that she's worried about the years without formal education and any skill level in a press conference today, which was one hour long, which we just attended about 15 minutes ago. now she's also raised the fact that they can the environment and me on monday is not conducive for the rain guards to return right now. and they won't be forced to return a bit strictly on voluntary basis under the supervision of un. she also the raise, the issue and concern about some degree concern rather about the violence and the inter dang rivalry. the safety of the woman and similar issues, but persistent that came till now as far as the human rights issues concern. she wasn't very detailed about those. she said she spoke with the relevance, government minister, the home minister, the foreign minister, of course,
4:23 pm
she met the prime minister also. and she said that we have raised those issues in even in question to my specific details about 76 people missing about a documentary from a straight this base news agency portal that the highlighted backed up to witnesses about been kidnapped by the intelligence agencies. here, she tactfully abroad those question, rather, she had dressed in general saying that this issues have been raised and will look into a very, a flea. we have raised the concern to the home minister and the law minister as well. but she very much elaborated on the wrong thing as a shows that it is a concern that so many iranian guys, younger generation, i'm not getting education. and that formal education should be available to them in man my language yet. so at some point or time they could reset, she said, but younger kids though seems to be quite happy in that camp. there's an offer and
4:24 pm
hope for the future. and general visit should end by tomorrow. pretty much everything was in general. nothing specific detail as to what, how reports or findings are in this press conference challenge re, thank you very much for that update. well, inflation in the u. k has hit a new 40 year high and british union say the cost of living crisis has become a living nightmare figures from the office of the national statistics on wednesday show the consumer price index reached 10 point one percent in july. that's in spite of 6 consecutive interest right. high by the bank of england, high food prices were the main driver of the rise. let's bring in cow thompson. he's an economist at the center for economics and business research. he joins us from london. thanks very much for being on the show. well, apart from raising interest rates even further, what more can central banks do?
4:25 pm
the central banks hand to get comprises mainly of interest rates, but they do also have this large scale. i think program cons to be using that they're starting to look into unwinding and that might also have an impact on slowing down the economy and preventing steep price rises. but i mean, in terms of more immediate support, that will probably be the job of the incoming government in number 10, downing street. they are the ones that can provide payments and cost of living support payments like we've seen, announced earlier in the year, more of which is probably going to be needed in the months ahead and a can you give us an idea of some of the reasons behind these record right tim, why they just keep going up? yeah, so 10 point one percent inflation is, is very significant. there is something we haven't seen since the early months of $982.00, roughly half of the inflation rate is described by household costs. so that's the energy bills and also transport costs, and that's for it being driven up by pump prices and fuel prices as
4:26 pm
well as that through prices, as you mentioned, are now starting to pull inflation the 2nd month to which they pulled up in place. and so to prices and energy prices, both through household bills, i'm throughout the pump. is there any indication of when the inflation rates might actually start dropping? and what do you think would be the tipping point? so the truth is that it's still going to get quite a bit before it gets any better. so october will be a really significant moment that some forecast is putting the right expect to drive and be energy price, tap at 70 percent, which would almost triple the average household energy bill year. one year after that new rules mean that the price will be reviewed in january again at which point, prices are likely to rise further. it's only up to that point that we, we might expect prices to subside. risk do remain because gas prices remain high
4:27 pm
and the lightnings remain high the course of next year. so clearly some more pain to come. thank you very much. this call thompson, from london for us. key this is it's allowing foreign investment and wholesale and retail trade for the 1st time in 60 years. the state monopoly in the sector has been blamed for severe shortages of food medicine and fuel for an investment will still be regulated by the government says the move could give a much needed boost to local industries. while iraq's caretaker, prime minister has held talks with representatives from major political parties, but being boycotted by the group that follows influential. she isolated mac, tara l, sata sorta has demanded, did you to sheree dissolve parliament by the end of the week and hold elections to break political deadlock mood of the why he joins me now from baghdad. what more

4:36 pm
is donald trump's most prominent republican critics has lost to reelection bid in the us state of wyoming. ms. chaney has made scathing remarks about the former president for last year's attack on the capital and has the congressional investigation. she lost the primary vote to a trump backed candidates who will contest that she has mid term elections. reynolds reports from wyoming as expected, wyoming representative, liz cheney lost her bid to remain in congress by a wide margin. cheney became former president donald trump's republican nemesis, as vice chair of the january 6th committee in a 4th full concession speech. chaney once again castigated the former president, 2 years ago, i won this primary with 73 percent of the vote. i could easily have done the same again. the path was clear, but it would have required that i go along with president trump lie about the 2020
4:37 pm
election. it would have required that i enable his ongoing efforts to unravel our democratic system and attack the foundations of our republic. that was a path i could not, and would not take jeanie's opponent, lawyer harriet hagaman, was endorsed by trump, who's very popular in wyoming. trump congratulated hagaman and called cheney spiteful. obviously, we're all very grateful to president trump, who recognizes that wyoming hill has only one congressional representative. and we have to make account is janie became one of the best known members of congress this year. as the vice chair of the congressional investigation into the events surrounding the insurrection of january 6th, 2021. as well as the various schemes and falsehoods, trump and his associates hatched as he attempted to remain in office after losing the election. but that didn't go over well with wyoming voters, 70 percent of whom voted for trump over joe biden, in 2020. despite her defeat,
4:38 pm
many people in wyoming and in washington, dc expect cheney to run for president in 2024, using a reputation as a defender of democracy who stood up to trump when other republicans failed to do. so. cheney did nothing to dispel those expectations in her concession speech. this primary election is over, but now the real work begins. janie's loss does not mean that she will leave her post as vice chair of the january 6th committee, which will remain active at least until january of next year. she has announced that hearings will resume in september and says that witnesses continue to come forward, and new evidence is pouring in, rob reynolds al jazeera jackson, wyoming. well, let's take a closer look at what the results tell us about donald trump's influence on the republican party of the tin republican representatives who supported the sick and
4:39 pm
impeachment of donald trump. only 21. the primaries, dan newhouse, from washington state and david validated from california for representatives, including liz cheney lost, in each case, donald trump endorsed. busy opponents before decided not to run for reelection. they said that had threats from trump supporters. anthony gonzalez said he feared for the safety of his wife and children will scott lucas is in the mirror. it has professor at the university of birmingham in the u. k. he says that what's happened to las chinese doesn't necessarily mean the don't. trump will be president again, you're like why, why homing, which is not very densely populated. it says that trumpets can, when at the local level that they can unseat their perceived foes, such as lead shanie, despite all the prestige, despite all the headline or political background that she brings. however,
4:40 pm
i think we need to be cautious here. it does not necessarily mean that the trumpets have taken over the republican party. let alone america. don't trust the president 2024. it's only the time of the announcement that we wait for. now, the bigger question here is, does he succeed? does his spectacle overtake reality? and there are 2 factors to watch here. the 1st is, is that a lot of republicans are not really persuaded that donald trump is the way to go. you might call them establish republicans, mainstream republicans. but with all his baggage, he is not necessarily going to be back say by the senate republican leader mitch mcconnell. i think the republicans will look for a trumpet. who is not donald trump, so like florida governor rhonda santos. and secondly, all those legal cases potentially could mean that trump could not take the presidency if he went. because if convicted and i know it's a big if he would be disqualified from federal office on some of the charges,
4:41 pm
