on governing the country after another contested election iraqi, she are, lead them of tartar outsider and his supporters boy caught a meeting that's supposed to resolve political deadlock, soaring at food prices push you k inflation into double digits for the 1st time in 40 years and then swore the file strove self. serena williams is korea aren't quiet, going to plan e $23.00 time grand slam champion was beaten by an hour later cono in the 1st round over us open warm up. ah, israel and turkey are restoring full diplomatic ties after more than a decade of discord. both sides will re appoint ambassadors for the 1st time in years, but turkey's foreign minister says, despite the thought license is government will keep defending the rights of

palestinians. she didn't, the appointment of ambassadors is also important for the development of bilateral relations. on the other hand, as we have always said, we will continue to defend the rights of palestine at jerusalem and casa, and it's important that our messages are conveyed directly at the ambassadorial level in tel aviv. oh, we have to correspondence on this story. natasha, your name is standing by frisson. occupied east jerusalem at 1st 2 or so said r in istanbul. sir, so what's the turkish perspective on this? then while the full, the restoration of the diplomatic relations between the encore and the tel aviv is being seen as a milestone in relations between 2 countries here in turkey. so this is coming off . there are almost a year of the talks between the high, the, between the officials between the presidents of the country,

the foreign ministers and so on. so just yesterday, author to form conversation with between european disraeli prime minister and the turkish president. and they have decided to reappoint the, the ambassadors and council generals to the capitals once again. so the experts here say that both countries have have put reasons to normalize the relations. in terms of the israeli side, the church experts are seeing that israelis facing the group in trap secure to detract from iran and iranian groups. and that's why it's seen turkey as a balancing problem in the region when it comes to turkey. turkey is facing the challenges that they're raising from from the syria and also east mediterranean and turkey by normalizing the relations being with israel is hoping that from this both areas is going to have the israeli support. on the other hand, no less than a year later, there will be a presidential election in turkey and the turkish economy is not doing well. so by

having a reproach meant, or minimum normalization of relations with israel, the car is hoping to benefit economy kelly as well over here, the delicate issue which is palestine and the palestinians. so to davy had heard that the turkish fort administer has said that despite the agreement tricky is going to keep continue supporting the palestinians. and they arrive because he knows that the palestinian cause is quite a delicate sensitive issue, both for the turkish public and also the governmental way of normalize relations. definitely the government here is very much careful not to lose the public support among turks a so thank you for that. and the passion name joins us from occupied east jerusalem now. so natasha, we've heard the turkish perspective on this. but what does israel done to

this day, tanya was months in the making. the restoration of full diplomatic ties between israel and turkey began earlier this year, according to caretaker prime minister year la pete's office. in march, israel's largely ceremonial president went to on kara to meet with the turkish president. then in june la peed visited on kara le pete is saying, quote, renewing relations with turkey is an important asset for regional stability and economic good economic news for the citizens of israel. the hope is that restoration of full diplomatic relations with turkey will deepen trade, economic, and cultural ties. now, recently, the israeli government announced that it would be re opening a trade office in istanbul. it also announced an agreement with turkey to allow is really airlines to fly to turkey. israel is

a popular tourist destination among israelis. now, in nova, on november 1st, for the 5th time in 3 and a half years is really, is, will go to the polls. the national unity government disintegrated in june la p, is hoping that his center left party yes, a team will do well and he'll be able to remove caretaker from his current title. benjamin netanyahu. the longest serving prime minister in israel is plotting a comeback, hoping that despite his ongoing corruption trial, he'll be a prime minister again. with this news, lupita earns a diplomatic when he can sell it to the public, say that it is good for the economy at a time when israelis like most people around the globe are struggling with the sky, rocketing price of housing, fuel, and food, essentially name in occupied easterly slim. thank you. let's take

a closer look now the background to the rift between the 2 countries relations with downgraded in 2010 after israeli commanders killed 10 people. when they stormed a turkish vessel bound for garza. then in 2018, both countries expelled each other's invoice in the dispute of israel's use of deadly force against protest. as in garza, that killed more than $200.00 or recently relations have improved, asked them, but he released and is very couple detained in istanbul on spying charges, and his very presence as it hertzog visited perch in march courting the trip. the beginning of a new era was now resolved, is a journalist covering middle east politics and an agenda fellow out to the washington institute. he joins us from a talent a welcome to the program. so to what extent do you think this has been a long process rather than a sudden decision?

well as important bobbins laid out. this process really began last year, but moved into high gear beginning in march with israel. the president doug visit on a very warm, an official and ceremonial reception by president early one of the israeli president. so it's not, you know, all of a sudden, a big bank restoration of relations. it's been a gradual process, culminating today in the announcement. and then i think in the near term the restoration of ambassadors to, to both countries. and i think it's also the good in the sense that both sides, both turkey and israel stance again, substantially from, from the restoration of ties which, which were covered and really severed few years ago. but are now on a, on a correction path. what will those gains be that? well, i think in terms of israel, we have to remember turkey was the 1st muslim country to recognize israel after it's founding in 1948. so if not a small,

small issue. also turkey obviously plays a significant role. ready in the middle east and also in the eastern mediterranean . so it's a major geopolitical player for israel always wanted to, to have those ties. it felt that it was important. and for turkey, as one of your correspondence mentioned, the economic crisis really plaguing turkey has been a major issue, i think, for, for the turkish government, for earth on the head of the election next year. is really tourists flock by the 10s of 1000 to turkey. and will continue to do so, especially when ties are good and positives. and i think that's a significant source of hard income for the check if economy along with other commercial ties which, which are set to only increase due to the repro small. i think it's a win win and in terms of the overall middle eastern environment. yes. israel want as many countries on inside versus it's, it's ongoing competition with iran, of course. do you think this reset will last and this so why

to that's a critical question. we did see a reset of sorts number of years ago, brokered by former us president obama. so we've, we've been down this road before we seen this before. i think now the situation is somewhat changed, like i mentioned in turkey, definitely in terms of own domestic situation and also in israel. i don't think it's a coincidence that these ties began to fall once again a year ago after benjamin netanyahu with finally toppled a prime minister here in israel, and a new se moderate government took power. i think that was a major source of, of positive momentum in terms of the rock or small. but yes, over all of it hovers the policy issue. that was the original reason for the time being severed to continue to be severed in more recent years. but it is interesting the timing, right? just over a week ago, there was another escalation in between the israeli military and african and from

a jihad. and yet that did not sabotage or sideline the small between israel and turkey. and so i think that's a clear indication that while turkey and turkish officials still care very much about the past, the cause it's gone down say insignificant in terms of their overall national interest. ok, we'll leave it the the resume, but we very much appreciate your time. thank you. my pleasure. kenny. is that president elect to an enroute? whoa is again calling for unity and says he's ready to get down to the business of governing. he said in the media conference that 10 years people had chosen their leaders. actual commission gave you to 50.4 percent of the vote, but his opponent dingo says he'll challenge the results in court on tv screen. people from all from us. okay. they, we listen to you guys, we want to know when the,

the body of your commitment is going to be key. and i really want to know that that expectation huge that we do not have that, that it wouldn't be any time. welcome web. has more on this from norwood? it was talking mostly about what they want to do when it from when they take office . but he was very much looking about when speaking with a lot of confidence that that would happen. but it was on tuesday afternoon right over it rejected those results and said that him and his coalition would do everything they could legally and constitutionally to get those results overturned . now the constitution give petition is 7 days after the announcement of the result . they were just 5 days left to file a petition to the supreme court waiting to find out if right we're doing is immune

coalition or if other right groups will file petitions in it, it can be expected at this stage for at least any politically motivated petition is to keep that card close to that chest. when this happened last time, 5 years ago following the election, then riley were doing it was at the time leading the opposition. he challenged the election results in court. that petition was submitted right to the last hour before the deadline was met. likely so 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. position leader dingo stronghold is the city of consumer in western canyon. the testers put to the street from monday when the results were announced. her matessa report. after days of uncertainty,

things seem to be getting back to normal in consumer rollo dingus from hold businesses that are close have now re open to supported, expect him to go to court, but they have mixed feelings about the way forward. i'm putting to me a it was, it was not stolen or may be warned, but the 50 percent the maybe did not achieve. i think less than just let go and submit activity move on normally. should just move on right now. really one piece and one things to get on. you can just stay with the court just in case or what we call, what will quote that we all can can do for now is wait and see how the process plays out. it could be valid thing of lawyers collecting the evidence to take the course if he goes to court and people are wondering what kind of evidence as we have, it isn't enough to overturn the results he has until monday to approach the court.

thank you more ahead on the news, including a north korea fires to cruise missiles in one day off the south korea and the u. s . to begin joins minutes. your journals. the price of the hanger un human rights chief visits, one of the world's biggest refugee camps. uninstalled some of europe top football team aiming to quantify the group stages on the continent leading club competition . ah, inflation in the u. k. has hit a new 40 year high british union say the cost of living crisis has become a living nightmare of figures from the office of national statistics on wednesday. show the consumer price index reached 10 point one percent in july. that's in spite of 6 consecutive interest rate rises by the bank of england. high food prices were

the main reason for the increases that they keep price is the chief economic adviser at the center for economics and business research in london, she joined us on scott from athens. thanks for joining us. so were inflation in the u. k. is now more than 10 percent. how likely is it to get worse? do you think very likely that the focus now on that begin here. peak of possibly 13 or maybe even 15 percent. some economists are thinking at present because we have this round of energy price increases, households reset and electricity cap supposedly cap, but actually the price, the bank goes up, the cap goes up and that cap is meant to increase base get knocked out. but we saw another rising back in april, is one of the reasons why we have such high inflation rate. so the cap is going up again in october, as i said, but also going up again in january. if ation is that this increases, which might well be, you know, over 50 or 60 percent in both of those months when they occur,

i going to be pushing inflation out even further. and that's the real concern. and that's why there is such a cost of living prices in the u. k, because of the way in which we have more or less cost the cost of energy in this peculiar way she lives on to consumers who are now thinking, where am i going to have enough money to heat my home in the winter and also feed my family, of course, quite a lot of the increase that we've seen right now come through additionally, is because of higher prices. and the bank of england has been raising the interest rates, but that hasn't worked. so what's going on. industries come work very quickly. i mean, the 1st thing to note is that it should be affecting people who want to buy houses . for example, less people are on fixed mortgages, so they've already fix them and they're not affected by the latest increase. in fact, the boss percentage of people are on this fixed mortgage is going to take

a bit of time for that to have an effect. yes, of course, businesses will also be affected. in many cases. of course, they had already made pre arranged agreements with the banks to board at a certain rate. those will be coming up for renewal soon. it takes actually months . in fact, installation is that monetary tightening may take a good 18 months before it has a real impact on inflation. so we have to bear in mind what he does do. it affects inflation expectations. so people may change the way in which they behave, which i think the bank, i mean, there's going to be serious about inflation on the thing. inflation may be lower than might also reduce the wage demands. we haven't seen very much sign of that yet . and so you are right, you can't actually how much of an impact if some of those factors us are into national if they are because we're talking about fuel prices, but gas and oil, and we don't, we buy food, all those things determined by factors outside that i think it's control, and meanwhile, the 2 candidates for a prime minister seems to be all over what to do about it. there is

a lot of confusion. i have to say for anyone who's listening to what they're promising. list truss here is one of the candidates and the for the secretary at present is in the u. k. is talking about tax cuts mainly rather than direct help to households, particularly the lower end of the income as k needed most watch or we should do not get talking about is not having any tax cuts but actually taxing inflation. the problem is we don't actually know how again there is talked about possibly assisting an individual's and households just as had been done earlier when we had the latest increase in price cap increase back in april with a little more money direct and it households a lot more money directed to meet the household that could be more last and i think that's thing he did anyway, is an easy one to implement, but he's actually not going to bring inflation down to any significant extent. unless you do something more major such as the 80, maybe on energy bills and maybe thinking of withdrawing some of the extra charges

that people buy with electric and with electricity bill the sun, they do such as renewables for example, are the costs which are involved in this transmission standard charges, things like that, that can take away quite a lot of the cost so far. we don't actually have an idea and then he's going to be very politically important for whoever is elected to do something very, very quickly. because he mentioned that he price, we are thank you very much. indeed for your insights. today, here on al jazeera, you think the united nations new envoy from in law is on her 1st visit this and she was appointed last year in has met the leader of the military gin to, to discuss with you in cause the deteriorating situation in the country. for visit comes in the same week that out to leave the house on suit. she was convicted on that more corruption charges, extending her prison sentence to 17 years. well,

just across the border, you and human rights chief michelle ashley has visited a hinge refugee camps. at cox's bazaar in bangladesh says the rescue. jesus told her they want to go home to neighboring men. as soon as it's safe, hundreds of thousands of people from the countries was the minority fled a miniature cracked on in 2017. now more than a 1000000 rang live in one of the world's villages. refugee camps from the charge re, has more from deca. as the 1st time ever a un human rights commissioner visit at binary 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 a camp and the rowing issue that south she visited and got camp yesterday. she spoke with several un agency is the relief, rehab, and effigy relief and rehabilitation, commissioner and other stakeholder. most importantly, she intermixed with intermingled with brian guard. i forgive younger groups 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 in me on monday is not conducive for us to return right now. and there won't be 4 story tiny bit strictly on voluntary basis under the supervision of un. she also raises 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 that persist in that chem till now. when, as donald trump's most prominent republican critics is lost to her reelection bid in the us state of wyoming, miss cheney has made scathing remarks about the former present for last year's attack on the capital, and has led a congressional investigation. she lost the primary vote to

a trump backed candidate who contested this year's midterm elections. romano's reports from wyoming, as expected, wyoming representative, liz cheney lost her bid to remain in congress by a wide margin. janie became former president donald trump's republican nemesis as vice chair of the january 6th committee in a forceful concession speech. chaney once again castigated the former president. 2 years ago, i won this primary was 73 percent of the votes. 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 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 chinese opponent, lawyer harriet hagaman,

was endorsed by trump, who's very popular in wyoming. trump congratulated hagaman and called cheney spiteful. obviously, we are all very grateful to president trump, who recognizes that wyoming hill has only one congressional representative. and we have to make account is jeannie 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, 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. ever janey did nothing to dispel those expectations in her concession speech. this primary election is over, but now the real work begins. janie's last 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. scott lucas is an meritus professor at the university of birmingham in the u. k. he says, what's happened to liz cheney doesn't necessarily mean that donald trump will be president again. the area 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, 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 timing 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 established republicans mainstream republicans. but with all his baggage, he knew not necessarily what do you 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, such as violation of the presidential records act, or indeed his violation or alleged violation of the espionage and said the head hair on al jazeera. you're standing on the shore after the fact i was steering the ship in the middle of the tempest. australia's former prime minister scott morrison blames upon demik off admitting he secretly health several jobs and cabinet. and nasa rocket is getting ready to blast off for a trip around the moon and in sport, south africa make the early moves near tess series against england. here with us. ah.

hi there. good to be with you. we've had thunderstorms rumble across arkansas, so that's knocked back the temperature in little rock to 25 degrees as a shield of rain slums further toward the south, or have got high temperatures is pretty much top to bottom across the west coast of the us. so lots angeles at $31.00 degrees, just a few degrees above average, but because this is a prolonged stretch of heat, it's going to take it's toll. we do have a heat warning in place for portland, no surprise. when you see the temperature, there is 37 degrees on wednesday, a vigorous system toward the atlantic. that's going to give us waves around boston, about 2 to 3 meters high weather alerts in play for canada, nova scotia, province. so yarmouth, picking up, maybe about 50 millimeters of brain and we've got quite an intense batch of rain to go around. believes guatemala same goes for honduras. so a washout of a day and take what you get by with the hiv 26 degrees south end of south america. it's actually pretty quiet. it's this line of storms that will go on for a closer look toward the eastern portion of paraguay are pushing into that

southeast corner of brazil. this is not back. the temperature is big dime in a song. see on the other day you were 36 thursday, just a high of 16 degrees, but back into the sun on friday. ok, thanks for your company. see you soon. ah. the 2 years held captive by i saw a life altering experience for any victim more so when 2 years is half of your life time a 4 year old. yes. the boys struggles to recover from the trauma of abuse and the witnessing of unspeakable atrocities. i meds, childhood a witness documentary on a just either the latest news as it breaks out, which is same rocky streaming overhead coming from garza into israel. and there's

been schools and schools have been the stuff that we detail coverage with pension high in water. so near the philippines it will be looking at today that is states for every new commitment from around the world. the danish government can't make people leave areas like me on the park and purely on the basis of ethnicity. lou ah, the watching our 0 reminder of our top story is this out. israel and turkey are restoring full diplomatic ties. after years of discord, both countries will be re appointing ambassadors for turkish. foreign minister insists that despite the move turkey will keep speaking up for palestinians. kenny,

as president elect says he's working to form a government return, says there will be no room for exclusion under his leadership becomes a day after his defeated rival rejected. the result of last week selection un human rights chief says it's still not safe for hundreds of thousands of wrangler refugees to return to me. and my acquisitions government is growing impatient about hosting them and told michelle lashenay that me and mom must take them back for more now on that thought in relations between turkey in the israel. joining us on skype from paris is my one to shower, out there as a senior political analyst. so my, and to what extent is this another example of what you might call turkeys hybrid relations with its neighbors? or yes, this is definitely one of those transformations. if you were in the regional international

environments where countries that were once upon a time high for loyal to one or other super power in the end over by polarity after the end to get bored war. and then the end of the unit polarity after the united states blunders in dc. we found out selves in a multi polar world and multiple in the middle east with the wrong turkey. so the area, egypt is, or another staying all important roles. so i think countries moved away from the hyper loyalty to hybrid relations whereby they are hedging their bets. they are doing a balancing act of sort, whereby they maintain open relations with more than one regional power with more than one global power. that's how you explain, for example, you e and the r u e. russia saudi china relations even though so the american relations

remain. in fact, despite this normalization though, between tank in israel wet, still face a huge test when it comes to issues over human rights and justice, for example, the, the plight of palestinians. yes, absolutely. and this is a more relevant questions for countries that where there's zoom of be at the state to war with israel. that normalized over the past 3 or 4 years jerky had always had relations with his rent since its establishment. back in 1948. but president r though, and it was 7 relations in order to punish israel for its mistreatment of the persons that one sent it twice. he walked away on on his railey residence and dagos, and so on,

so forth. so don't really maintain his pressure on israel and so forth of bunstein . but turkey's national interest of course come 1st and now the turks are saying, look, we will try to do both. again, we will do a balancing act. we will normalize or re normalize relations with israel at the same time, use those diplomatic relations with israel in support of palestine. i think we probably trust the turks more than other at parties that said the same, but we watched the last 340 years and we've seen to betray the palestinians through their diplomatic and strategic relations with israel. i think is somewhat promises to be something different. they will normalize relations with isn't one of the same time try to lobby or pressure israel in support of madison. the i got a little issue, not so little perhaps is that despite israeli objections,

turkey maintains its support for hamas. it continues to host some of the hamas leadership in turkey and, and certainly if it is not acquiescing to is really demands and briefly, is this likely to be a long time reset? this is not likely to be what i'm saying. is this likely to be long term this, this reset? well it, it, in, as far as we know, is that this is a volatile region and wild boar countries. however, certain rational way of approaching that relationship. sh, clearly a lot of things could happen with the korean nuclear deal coming with the possibility of another outbreak because of israel repression in palestine. so we are ordering all sorts of scenarios. and clearly syria, it could implode with russia and ukraine. you know, again, it's hybrid, that's the whole point of hybrid, right? it could change, it'll always be hedging. it's always be

a balancing act. they will not be rigid, it won't be a one case scenario. while on as far as about, thank you very much. indeed, for your insights, iraq, the caretaker prime minister as hell, talks, representatives for major political parties. but a big boy caught it by the group that follows influential shiite lead time on sat, saturday has demanded the judiciary, dissolve parliament and hold elections to break a political deadlock. macklin otherwise has more from baghdad. in an attempt to end the political deadlock in iraq, caretaker prime minister, invited the representatives of political factions in order to reach common ground in order to end the political crisis in iraq. meanwhile, at the southwest movement announced earlier that they're not planning to attend that meeting. meanwhile, supporters of she at lee that mocked at us other continued their sit in front of the headquarters of the parliament,

setting up dozens of tents. and they say they are not planning to leave the area until their demands are met. their demands include, the poem, be dissolved nearly elections be held as a way out of this political crisis. men doubt. meanwhile, supporters of their arrival parliamentary look affiliated to iran, known as the coordination framework, continued their sit in nearby the dad's greens on setting up also dozens of tents. and they say that protesting against what they consider the accumulation of the problem hit causal to buy supporters of shortly there after the solder. meanwhile, the supreme court in bagdad has adjourned it until the end of this month. a plea that was submitted by a souther affiliated lawmakers, as well as other independent lawmakers requesting the parliament be dissolved. an early elections beheld as a way out of the current political impasse. south korea's defense ministry says north korea has fired to cruise missiles. there were launched into the west sea

from on sean sap on hand. province. sow so, says it's analyzing the data to learn more about the launch with help from the u. s . military when it comes just a day off to solon washington started forward days of joint drills in preparation for training exercise. later this month. our correspondent at rob mcbride explains why the timing of these nissan launches is significant. the timing of this does seem to be significant more significant. it seems than the type of missiles themselves. these are set to have been to cruise missiles fired westwood towards the sea that separates the korean peninsula from china. now if that's the case, then these will be the 1st cruise missiles that have been fired since january. but that has been a flurry of other mis activities since the start of this year, from the north, in particular, ballistic missiles, either short range or longer range, ballistic missiles, the type of weapons that are banned on the un security council resolutions. now in contrast, cruise missiles are not banned,

but the launch wednesday doesn't coincide with an important news conference that is being given here by the president units of y'all, who has marked his 100 days in office. now he is a conservative, unlike his liberal predispose that he takes a far tough line with the north. and in fact, during the news conference outlined his position to north korea saying he's not interested in cosmetic his style. photo opportunity summit meetings with his counterparts from the north that any future dealings really has to be based on formal substances progress made the basically he wants to see a far more sincere approach taken by north korea towards de nuclear is ation before the holding upset. stomach, so this could be a message from north korea to him and his administration. but it also coincides with the starting of drills this week between us and south korean forces ahead of larger scale military joint exercises next week. the type of exercises that always

seem to anger and provoke north korea. so this could be seen as being an early expression of north korea's displeasure towards those. cuba says its allowing a foreign investment in its whole southern retail trade for the 1st time in 60 years. the states monopoly in the sector has been blamed for severe shortages of food medicine. fuel from investments will still be regulated. the government says the move could give a much needed boost to local industries. in peru, prosecutors are expanding a corruption, investigating building a president pedro castillo that looking at allegations of corruption, obstruction of justice and taking bribes. for carstairs, says the probe, as political persecution and racist arianna sanchez has more now from lima, with just one year in office president mid august. the you is now facing 6 criminal inquiries. and the federal investigations are getting closer and closer to home. a
