jailed for more than 16 years. guantanamo bay detainee magic khan is released in belize. it's a 1st such re settlement under the bible administration. a russian president vladimir putin vows victory in ukraine and warns keys a western allies of a decisive response ascending weapons. united states signed a deal with the philippines. that completes its arc of military bases around china, plus pakistan. investigators say the suicide bomber behind monday's attack, that killed over 100 people, was wearing a police uniform boltron system that was mentioned to you on the final day of landmark visit to the democratic republic. and i'm far as small. have all the latest sports as football fan in the club broke up house nation morocco, get ready to support home side with ad casablanca,

as they attempt to become the 1st african team to win the tremendous. ah, so a long time guantanamo detainees who was taught should it, cia secret prisons in jail for more than 16 years has been released and transferred to police. it is the 1st or 3rd country resettlement under the administration of us president joe biden. my g con, was arrested in pakistan by us forces in 2003 can play the guilty to terrorism related charges. 34 detainees remain in guantanamo bay detention facility in cuba. that's cross to rosalind jordan straight away in washington dc. so rose, tell us more about this. what else do we know? ah, well, this is a case where montes shoe hunt khan had completed the prison term, to which he pled guilty of back in 2012. but he had been sitting at guantanamo for

the better part of the year without any legal place where he could go. there wasn't a country that the u. s. felt satisfied, they could release him to. so he was in a real sense of limbo for the better part of a year. after negotiations, however, according to the new york times, con has been of re settled in the central american country of belize, of which i undertook a considerable negotiations to make certain that of the resettlement. and it is clear to say that a resettlement would be appropriate both for con and for the people of belize. this is a situation that had been ongoing for some time because han was of perhaps known as one of those detainees who had been tortured by the cia while he was held in secret camps in eastern europe. we believe between 20032006 in 2006,

he was moved to guantanamo where he was held until 2012 when he agreed not just to plead guilty to terrorism charges to related to actions he undertook while he was in pakistan, but also he agreed to provide evidence in the ongoing case of the 5 men who have been accused of planning the september 11th attacks. and so once he completed his saw term under that to a court agreement, con was then eligible for release. we should point out that the, by an administration has repatriated 5 other guantanamo detainees, but this is the 1st person who has been resettled under the biden administration. ambrose, what about the mind magic calm that his story was? he was of the high value detainee, was me he was a hot considered a high value detainee, and that was because they felt that he had information that went directly to the

heart of al qaeda operations of the fact that he was willing to go into a court and to agree to provide states evidence as it were against khalid shaikh mohammed and 4 other men who were at guantanamo right now undergoing pre trial hearings for eventually their trial. on the september 11th plot, they felt that this was someone that would be incredibly valuable, but it was also increasingly clear in the past 2 decades. that the u. s. needed to do something to show that it was trying to abide by the rule of law, even though the military commissions process is not what is known as an article free court process under usaa law. this was important to show that the us could try to treat detainees as humanely as possible. understandably, his lawyer and those who have been opposed to the operation of the military

commission system and the prison at guantanamo bay are thrilled that khan is out and living a new life in billy's or i rose. thanks for the answer. rosalind jordan reporting their lead said, bring in night, karen greenberg now she's director of the center on national security at fordham university school of law, jaundice, lying from what just in new york and karen. first up, what's your reaction to this news? i my action is on one of relief. this is a long time in becoming you know, it's been 11 months since he was cleared to be released and his sentence ended so. so i'm, i'm as, as you know, as she said, i think it's thrilling. i think it also is important signal from the bible administration that they are intending to try and close one time off and to do so perhaps. so you think you're right to post a good one where prisma shifted?

yeah, i don't think there's any question about that. look, they were facing the us government was facing a deadline on february 6th of this year for responding to a habeas petition that my cons lawyers had filed. so i am not surprised at the timing, but this is a, this is a positive step that many have been waiting for for a long time. right. i got to tell them i was one of those stories that crops up every now and then. but it always seems to be that why is going to want to learn it is still open for several reasons. one reason is that it's very hard to amount a trial for the people who have been charged with crimes in the military commissions because they were tortured at ca, black sites, as well as much he caught who pled guilty, but to have a trial for the others. is taking one time and it's very hard to can't introduce tortured evidence. and now they're talking about arranging plea deal, which is he was the 1st a treaty to strike

a plea deal with the united states. and perhaps we will be seeing more. and the other reason is that 20 have been thought which will on he had been cleared to release, but getting them released is very hard. it requires tremendous amount of negotiations that will guarantee that they won't return to terrorism, that their safety is assured as well. and you know, last fall, biden appointed somebody to oversee this process a long time state department official, tina can know, and so we'll see what happens. but there's been movement. the question is, how fast can they move and they need to move quickly. it's not just a question of the prisoners themselves. it cost literally millions of dollars per the tiny per year. it it costs more than $30000000.00 per prisoner per year. there are a 1000, there are a 1000 guards and others who are monitoring and taking care of the detainees. so, you know, you do the cost for a prisoner, it goes up every time

a detainee is released as well. or a con, thanks for that perspective. appreciate that current greenberg speak usa from which the new york? thank you. thank you. russian president vladimir putin is warned, and moscow will respond to the west with more than just tanks. he was marking 80 years since the world war 2 battle of stalingrad newton condemned germany's decision to supply keith with leopard to battle. thanks. is it russia would be victorious in ukraine. we'll get dr. yagmi with you or i be excused from those who are dragging european countries, including germany into a new war with russia and irresponsibly talking about it as a done deal. those who expect to win against russia on the battlefield. they apparently don't understand their modern war with russia will be completely different. we are not sending our tanks to their borders udemy, but we have what it takes to respond. they were in it and using military hardware

will not be the end of it yet. everyone has to understand this well in east, in the ukraine. the search for survivors continues after russian missile had an apartment building in the city of climate tours. at least 3 people were killed. another 20 were wounded criminals cause in the, the next christian where russian, russian and its allied fighters of battling for control for temper to meet with this temper. but this is the center of the city. only civilians live here, which is why any attempts to justify this are futile. at the very least over ukraine's president vitamins lensky met toppy. you officials and keep, to urge for more sanctions on russia. and some of those measures are eminent. today, russia is paying a heavy price as our sanctions are you eroding its economy, throwing it back by a generation. the price cap on crude oil already costs russia around $160000000.00 euros a day. and we will keep on turning up the pressure farther. we will introduce

without g 7 partners, an additional price cap on russian petroleum products. and by the 24th of february, exactly one year since the invasion started. we aim to have the 10th package of sanctions in place. just believe robust gazelle dang, as when she does, that is the common to ask for the european union is to reduce russia's ability to bypass sanctions. the sooner this is achieved, the closer we will get to the defeat of russia's aggression. we have noticed that the pace of sanctions has slowed down a bit while the terrace state has speeded, adapting to sanctions. it is worth to catch up and fix it, ease we believe we can do it. what funding the reconstruction of ukraine is? one of the main topics of discussion is european union leaders gather and keith talks. but even as the war continues, the rebuilding has already begun in future near keith natasha butler. but some

people who are trying to remake their homes and their lives in boucher on the outskirts, if keith, valentina watches as builders, repair her home. it was damaged by shelling when russian forces occupied the town last year. and experienced, she says, was worse than living through world war 2. the common that day to day to follow as weekly. everything was destroyed by the t. v. so for clothes, i couldn't stay, so i went to my neighbors basement. we spent weeks there, there were explosions nice and day russians and ukrainians firing. i don't know how i survived. the house now has new windows, and soon the roof will be finished. valentina sweeps up shavings from the timber to fuel her burner. butcher's town council, his financing reconstruction in this neighbourhood, one of many districts pounded my gosh, not terribly heavy. every house in the street has been damaged and it's

a similar picture in so many parts of ukraine. it is clear, the rebuilding the country is going to say yes and cost a lot of money as the war continues in ukraine. so does the destruction mangled infrastructure and bombarded buildings. and now part of the landscape, some people are forced to survive in what's left of their homes. keep estimates that reconstruction will cost at least $350000000000.00. the e u has an idea about how it could be funded. ukraine will rebuilt and done. i just must be jump, inserted. we are fully frozen over 300000000000 euros proportion of sets. i'm strongly trinity's. these shoots in this will be used for new transfer, current, torture. but oh, not all you members are convinced about using frozen russian assets for ukraine's reconstruction. but some say it would be

a form of justice making moscow pay to rebuild what it has destroyed. even the low amount of money could ever fully restore people shattered lives. natasha butler, al jazeera butcher, ukraine, you, you, the united states is expanding its military footprint in the philippines in a move that could provide a strategic advantage against china. you will now have access to for new sites and increase presence in other bases. beijing has warned the plan will further aggravate tensions in the south. china sea claims many islands in the area as part of its territory, including taiwan. bottom below. has this report? says president ferdinand marcus junior took off his 7 months ago. there's been a succession of high level us visits to manila on thursday, it was defense secretary lloyd austin's turn. i have always said that it seems to me that the future old,

the philippines and for that matter, the asia pacific will always have to involve the united states walking to talk. the marcus administration has granted the u. s. military access to for more sites, meaning american troops will now be able to operate it 9 locations. but austin has clarified, there will be no permanent us basis. it also provides us the ability to respond effectively to humanitarian issues and also disaster relief and other types of crisis. not just for the philippines book, for the region to row, one of the bigger and long standing crisis is the territorial dispute between manila and b. j in the south china sea. although an international ruling in 2016, invalidated china's vast claims. the asia giant has built artificial islands and

continues to encroach on philippine waters that and china threat to take tie one by force of critics fearing a bigger u. s. military presses will serve more as an irritant rather than a deterrent. we think that this move by the united states philippine government will further escalate pensions in the west philippine sea and the south china sea, as well as the area region by one. and now we do not want the means to be part of ha, ha, one thing former president would, we could deter it. they wanted to scrap the agreement that allows the joint military drills between the philippines and the us. but under his successor, the largest public, that war gifts in bobbing 60000 soldiers are planned for april. the united states and the philippines military alliance may have been through a few rocky years, but the philippine government under president marcus has put all that behind. one could say it's an old partnership in a new era. barnett below al jazeera manila,

high for port in israel for more than $1000000000.00. there are growing calls were improving corporate oversight income, longer time, over the last 10 years have really become global players. and while they're become global player, the, the regulatory inno systems are in india. and let's say and in the u. s. on in europe that there is a gap, so it good regulation has to catch up and has to, has to evolve. a far more of a transference system got to madonna is no longer a shell. richest person in the stock market regulator is reportedly examining the cancel chassis park new methodology. sierra new delhi oil giant shell, made a record $40000000000.00 profit in 2022. that's the highest ever in it's 115 year

history, a capture to motors. here we saw a surgeon energy prices after rushes invasion of ukraine and shells. earnings more than doubled in just one year. and shell isn't the only company to have benefited from the energy crisis. american multinationals also broke their records. exxonmobil had a profit of more than $55000000000.00, or chevron reported a surplus of more than $35000000.00. let's be now town as harrison is a campaign lead on the fossil fuels teen for global witness joins us live from london. alice, good to have you with us. sit. what do you think about this $40000000000.00 of profit as many the struggling to feed themselves on the heat? the homes? yes, so 2022 was an excellent year for the oil and gas industry. it is you just said few days ago, exxon recorded annual profits of $55000000000.00. a shell to de recorded profits of $40000000000.00. that amounts to well over a $1000.00

a 2nd. i'm an exxon and shell, a sitting at the center of 3 global crises that meant that 2022 was a pretty brutal year for the rest of us. so as we were hearing earlier, there is a course that the war in ukraine, a war that is being waged on the proceeds of the sales of oil and gas, which has, has killed thousands of civilians and kick and nuclear any moment a vis the energy crisis the global energy crisis, which has plunged millions of us into poverty as a result of the sky, rocketing cost of gas. and of course, is the climate crisis which last year resulted in billions of dollars worth of damages. thanks to the floods, the droughts, the storms, all these extreme weather events that are gonna, that are gonna happen all the more frequently as a result of climate breakdown. and sorry, no, yeah, i was going to show the playing the part by investing in the renewable and

renewable technologies. and they say by using pressure on supplies caused by the sanctions on march recalls by the war in ukraine. that's the position that, that that position opposition is quite different. and actually my colleagues in the u. s. just yesterday filed a complaint with the u. s. financial regulator, the i c c. because shell last year, claims that 12 percent of its overall annual expenditure was invested in a division cool to renewables and energy solutions. which of course, sounds great. but if you scratch beneath the survey surface loss of that money is, is going to, it's a gas, which is of course, a fossil fuel. and we think actually that only 1.5 percent as shells investment go to to solar and wind power generation. so you know, these are not green climate friendly companies do not believe the green wash fossil

fuels, or the single biggest cause of climate breakdown. and fossil fuel companies are the single biggest threat to us fixing it. and indeed, global witness referred for all the complaints, engage, allocate, accusing company agree washes in the right. yeah, exactly, just yesterday. and it was all right. so what do you think should be done, or how do we, what do we do to read this route? some of those bound to yeah. how, what should we do with this car? yeah, we're, we can start with that. so governments around the world, in the short term, they need to impose a proper and permanent tax on the proceeds of, of oil and gas companies. and they need to stop, stop subsidizing them. so here in the u. k, for example, where i'm sitting, it's long being one of the most generous places in the world for the oil and gas industry. our government gives them billions in the form of tax relief and other subsidies. and we need to take that money and we need to spend it on better things or numerous things. we could spend that on, for instance,

in the context of the energy crisis that could go towards helping those of us who are struggling to pay our energy bills with some long term support. that money also needs to be invested in energy efficiency measures. so home installation, for example, here in the u. k, for every 4 pounds that we spend on energy heating our homes, on average one pound is lost because a poor home insulation that money needs to be spent on massively investing in renewables. so that we can break our dependence on fossil fuels. and of course, you know, some of that money should also go to climate vulnerable countries that are feeling the impacts of climate breakdown and need some help adapting with that. do you that's what should i should happen. i can see that, but it's not going to happen. is it what is going to go to the shareholders? will exactly that money is going to enrich its shareholders so, you know, shall,

i believe. $20000000000.00 of its profits has gone to its shareholders in the form of dividend payments and share buyback. so we really need our governance to, to up the pressure increased taxes and take away some of that money which has been made on the back of these crises. finally, i was a war undoubtedly is given these oil. john's new momentum has net, but it's not totally reversed the shift to renewables again, because that is proceeding that is going on is not sorry that the shift to renewables. yeah, it is still happening. i mean, there is, there is growth in renewables. we all seeing growth renew. yeah, there is growth. so last year out she the biggest parcels came from renewables so that the tide is turning. but we just need to shift policy and shift investment in the right direction. because as i say for some reason,

and the reason is that the oil and gas industry is very powerful and very influential, pays our government's a lot of money in the, in the form of political donations. and so our governments seem to be on the side of it if this and so the industry, whereas really it needs to switch track on to renewables and the industry needs government support to do that. i was, i was in great to get your perspective. do appreciate your time. thanks very much. thanks very much. anti government protests improve, have affected all sectors of the economy, causing severe losses. terrorism and food supplies are in short supply due to roadblocks. as marianna sanchez reports officials fair, the unrest will have a long term impact on the economy. farmers at this public granite field in the southern region of our beckett's work harvest time is near and the fruit is ready to be picked. the protesters have been keeping them from reaching the fields, threatened to beat them. its been difficult to work during the almost 2 months of

america is equal to hamas and the taliban on $911.00, something happened that day. even the former democratic chair of the committee believed her comments were wrong when a, a resolution was brought up to deal with this last time. she never apologized. they changed the resolution to say, antisemitism is wrong. we're not removing her from other committees. we just do not believe when it comes to foreign affairs, especially the responsibility of that position around the world with the comments that you make. she shouldn't serve there. and let's go live to how did your customer in washington dc. and how does that tell us more about the circumstances around this journey? those so this vote to remove representative ill hon. omar from the house foreign affairs committee. it went down nearly hardy, lies with 218 votes against her 211 in her support. and she gave a fiery speech of defiance just before this boat went down. let's listen

representation matters. continuing to expand our ideas of who is america and who can partake in the american experience. experiment is a good thing. i am an american, an american who was sent here an american who was sent here by her constituents who represent them in congress. and of course, omar is all so muslim, she's proud of that. and she's also a refugee from somali and immigrant. and she says, those were also reasons why she believes the republicans in the house targeted her . and since her election to congress, she has become an outspoken star in the democratic party, having apologize, her some of those comments that were seen to be anti semitic. now,

democrats say that the vote to remove her from the house foreign affairs committee was politically motivated. they accused kevin mccarthy, that republican speaker of the house for political retribution, because democrats in 2000, 12021 rather had removed to republican members from their house assignments committee assignments. after they had advocated for political violence against democrats. it's notable that they never apologized for those comments and now they are back on those committees. now that republicans have regained control of the house. and mccarthy wasn't. this was in his, this was only his latest move in removing some democrats from their leadership positions. because just last week, he also removed 2 prominent democrats, adam shift, and eric's while well from the house intelligence committee. those 2 members had been a leaders in the democratic effort to impeach former president donald trump. nick

we will bring everybody who's involved in this carnage to justice. a spain america have signed 20 trade agreements in a step towards repairing decades of strain by natural tides, sprains prime minister peddler sanchez smashed his morocco, and counts bought a new shed in a robot at see 1st high level meeting since 2015 punches this trip comes less than a year after he reverse spain's long standing neutrality on the western sahara conflict. the move sparked anger among his far left curtis and let's take some because b t has been has no you who's a north africa specialist and a board member of the institute of so harness studies as he joins us live now from q a city. so he has mean that this is all part of petro sunjay, is resetting the relationships are right. yes, absolutely. so the visits of the spanish government, how little a delegation to morocco is ashwin, a new era, thanks to clear cut

a road map after madrid. any quickly acknowledged a historical sovereignty of morocco over its territory, the moroccan, western sahara through the autonomy plan. i think that the spanish a prime minister has clearly said it reiterate, reiterated it today. that's that this new phase of bilateral relations a week morocco considered as an important partner with the european union in fighting extremism and by terrorism. and even the blocks migration a policy. so i think that spain has a, a become aware that its profit is not only found in europe, even if it's a, it's a european country. but rather its interests are largely found in morocco. and you know the south in general. so spain is the pertinently aware that morocco is an important partner in many strategic areas, mainly the fight against terrorism,

illegal immigration, and organized crimes. shaw has been going for use. it is not just security. is it because it is also going to be very useful for them in terms of trade in the economy and absolutely morocco and as spain is, is the a 3rd, the 3rd, this largest, are our partner outside of the european union after china, the u. s. and the number of, of the land and the number one destination or spanish experts in african worse than the airport. so not only of ad or counter terrorism, but also a bit also economy. but how popular is this within both countries? well, and actually morale, spain, and just to the well or where it's interest lies. it lies in the economy. it lies, as i said in, in migration, and made sure that morocco is strategic partner and ally with which it should

expand and deepen its relationship and go to the, you know, to the strategic dept death in the shoulder. or does it have wholesale or support for this move? larry, does it have wholesale support for this move the government? and it, of course, there is a support for, from the, from the spanish, from the spanish government. and we have seen that during the last visit of pedro sanchez to morocco, and this has moved now to this. hi. this led to this high level meeting recently. and the king will, will hoster the prime minister and this says it all. it's there is a definitely a support from the or her from the spanish government, except from some political parties that are still not i would say and not convinced about this a relationship and is trying to put the pressure on the current government to

actually and not to have morocco as, as a, as a partner, but i think what, i think that's been the current government would want to sacrifice it sir. strategic solutions that he tell morocco in all answer that there's a certain amount of disapproval. finally, just what about morocco's relationship with france? where does it sit? no. so when it comes to france and morocco, after more than a year of tension between the 2 countries over migrant issues, i think that france has really recently announced her an end to these restrictions on moroccan citizens. are we also there was an appointment avenue in bassett there, and there will be a presidential visit, a to 2 rabbits, which indicates friends, eagerness to regain its a diplomatic position. however, even if there was this announcement from france, i think that the stations cannot ease fully as long as well is not clear on

its position regarding the moroccan western to her. i think that her morocco's diplomacy is based on clarity and continuous dialogue and it wants to maintain good relations with french. but the french french republic needs to abandon it's a kind of observer status on the question of the, of, of moroccan and western sahara and almost suits the major powers like the united states that recognized a morocco's sovereignty over its southern provinces. so i think that this ad, the clap, france has to be very clear when it comes to to this issue. okay, doesn't. thank you so much for that, sir. jasmine has now it's been just a 2nd roach. now these really foreign minister has visited sudan to discuss the normalization of ties between the 2 countries and the current in sedans, military ruler, abdullah fatter albert met and caught him. the sudan agreed to take steps to

world sees. not so saddam as a broken place, but as a place full of hope that has gone through a lot of conflict, a lot of pain. i'm and we're trying to recover from them. we're trying to move forward, trying to build, it took a while, but nowadays the unified, i mean, made up of the government forces and former rebel fight with that army still needs to be deployed to various parts of canada to maintain peace in order as we speak thousands of people are still living in internal displays. camps to skate to go home, because it's not safe for them to turn back to their home. they're hoping that the time you can move forward to implement this piece of human fully. and those kinds of getting tried. he will old wounds of the past. the funeral of a controversial australian cardinal has drawn more nose as well as protests in sibley. oh, yes. jude po, died last month and he's been a year in prison off with conviction for molesting to teenage boys. he was later

and it was a really horrific event. have this incredible privilege of being a curator, i one of the most important museums in the world. so i thought, you know, i can provide this platform for the arts of puerto rico. there's definitely a sense of frustration and anger that's very palpable. i think throughout the entire exhibition about how the government, both federal and local government, neglected puerto rico in the immediate aftermath of the hurricane. this is a painting titled, collapsed soul by god, molly, until the regus. it's one of the favorites, i would say, i always see people standing here looking at the painting when hurricane maria happened on monday, i realized that cargo ships and boats in general, are lifeline to puerto rico because he carry everything, you know, put a request like a ship, it doesn't have a captain, it's adrift. and there are many symbolisms to ships in puerto rico. this is

a work by gabriella biased titled, hopefully we'll meet at sea. this is a work that talks about their father suicide, almost the one year anniversary of maria. he committed suicide and it gives an identity to someone who passed away. and he was part of a group of people, of a demographic that should have been tended to. and you know, the government had the responsibility to care for them. when i think about what the public visitors will take out of this exhibition in a way i have a really low bar. i want them to care. i want the vision to be an opening, to ask further questions to be inquisitive and to dig deeper into the history of puerto rico. a still head hearing out 0 good sports that will stop formed by both. these may match, bust reduction coming in the future. ah
