6:06 am
real threats and the fear for people here any aftershocks pulled bring, could bring down buildings or like the one behind me. and i said, what's the mood like there? i mean, many of these people, as we know, have already lived through to massive earthquakes just 2 weeks ago. while you were outside, run this earthquake heads, we were about to go live. and what we witnessed was panic. people came out onto the streets. we were net, sir, what's the session? those workers run out the police down the road. they were at the checkpoint, they ran out for cover. the building behind us shook, and many people are fearful that there's been thousands of after shots, but no one expected another earthquake. people came back there in their blankets, the children out on the streets. people began going to the picture station to fill out their cars and we spoke to people who said that they are going to spend the night in their cars along the highway. many people were leaving the area or even at the service station we saw people sleeping in their cars. and there is this sense
6:07 am
of fear and panic. yes, many people have left the areas. many people i intensity is a temporary accommodation, but the still the sense of fear every time is after shop this reliving of that trauma of those 2 earthquakes 2 weeks ago. and now this 3rd one has really affected the psychology of people, really making them fear not wanting to go into their homes. it is a safe place which is. busy that sure place inside their homes, many people are saying we're supposed to feel safe in our homes and we no longer feel like them. all right, as a big library there in antalya, i said, thank you. whether you are a secretary of state left her key or just hours before the latest quake, anthony blinkin assured his turkish counterpart, but washington would fully support the recovery efforts. so now cassandra has more now from anchor off. this is the 1st official visit by u. s. secretary of state, antonia blank into turkey since he took office 2 years ago. he arrived here on
6:08 am
sunday nearly 2 weeks after devastating earthquakes shook southern trickier and northern syria. blink and says, washington is ready to help unclear for as long as it takes stressing the fact rebuilding in this region will require a lot of time and effort. nato's expansion is also on the agenda. finland, sweden have already taken concrete steps to fulfill the commitments they made under the trilateral memorandum of agreement that they signed with turkey on the margins of the nato summit in madrid. we welcome and appreciate those steps. i think they're quite significant. the u. s. center kit don't agree on ever issue. while giving a green light for finland to join nato on current beliefs suite a need to do more to kids. their defense capability is another issue for the nato allies to discuss, especially after on car a purchase. what a massage systems in 2019 if one of the probably be a good is on doing that,
6:09 am
we're going. we discussed the latest situation regarding our f. 16 request at the meeting today at the us administration. strongly support the plea and we thank them for this. we hope they will make an official notification to the u. s. congress on this matter as soon as possible. and it is in the interest of both parties to complete this process promptly. choice all assess ciocca is not in favor of conditional sales of the f sixteens and has asked for the return of the $1400000000.00 on cur. a paid for the f 35 fighter jet program to kia was unilaterally remote from it. turkish american relations have been swain for some time now. the fight left washington immediate relief response to on car shows, the relationship is still strong and the nato still need to care. however, there are so many issues to overcome. american support for white puget, kurdish fighters in syria is one of them. turkish officials have designated the
6:10 am
group as a terrorist organization and said the u. s. corporation is a great mistake while washington insist, the y p g is quit shell for its fight against thyself. seen am casala al jazeera and kyra sal came stands ukraine, stanz, and democracy stands. that was a message from you as president joe biden, as he made an unannounced visit to the ukrainian capital just days before the 1st anniversary of the conflict. out as here as charles stratford reports of the days of speculation, no doubt, weeks of planning us president joe biden arrived in the ukrainian capital keep. nearly a year to the day, russia invaded the white house. it had been basic communication with moscow just before the visit to ensure what it called the conflict taishan. to avoid
6:11 am
a miscalculation that could lead to open conflict between the 2 nuclear powers. ah, an air raid siren wailed across the cities. the 2 men walked near saint michael's cathedral, not uncommon when world leaders have visited keith since the war began. u. s. president described the night of the invasion when he called the ukrainian leader zalinski. he admitted he had feared russia could quickly take control of all of ukraine that dark night. one year ago. the world was lonely at the time. bracy for the fall cave seemed like our longer ago than a year. but think back that year perhaps even the end of ukraine. you know, one year later keith, stan and ukraine says,
6:12 am
democracy stays, the american stand with you. and the world stands with you. widen announced an additional half a $1000000000.00 in usaid, but there was no mention of new advanced weaponry such as long range missiles. the zalinski says his forces need ukrainian president stress again. there will be no peace until ukraine liberates all its territory. a promise that is among many military analysts and some of ukraine's allies, increasingly unrealistic as the vast cost of this war and its global effects continues to grow, or is malia condition oblivion of hospital. but it was the conversation that indeed brings closer our joints victory in this war. so we can and we must ensure that 2023 becomes the year of victory, which i went underlying that this unprovoked and criminal russian war against ukraine. and then tied democratic world much and with the liberation of ukrainian land from russian occupation, and with solid guarantees of long term security for our country. europe an entire
6:13 am
world with u. s. president's 1st visit to ukraine almost exactly a year since russia's invasion is rich in symbolism and a clear message to moscow. for biden's, zalinski and many of ukraine's backers, maintaining unified support comes at a vital time before an expected intensification of fighting in a so called spring offensive chance travel al jazeera cave. 40 years president has now arrived in poland, travelling there by train from ukraine, as alan fish explains from warsaw. biden's surprised visit to our country. the grip of war was a major undertaking. as president joe biden went for dinner in washington, dc, late on saturday, final plans were being laid for his trip to keith. the decision to go was taken on friday. the arrangements had been discussed over several months. the template was established last year when the secretary of state and the defense secretary visited
6:14 am
ukraine over night train, small entourage, black coat, windows. the white house kept a tight lid on the news, even issuing biden's schedule for how you would spend monday in washington. even as he was travelling half a world away, the american stand with you and the world stand with you. keys has captured a part of my heart. i must say. it's not unusual for presidents to make trips to conflict zones. rock obama did it in afghanistan. donald trump, iraq, but both times the u. s. controlled the air space, ah, that's what made biden's trip more dangerous. that's why the white house told the russians just hours before, to avoid any mishaps which could spark a bigger problem on the ground. the security had to be unbelievable by the ukrainians, because the u. s. doesn't have a military presence in ukraine. and so you've got air defense security to worry
6:15 am
about. you got these possible elements on the ground. and it required that the shutting down a sent you a key of to traffic off for a couple of hours. ah, when he traveled to poland last year, president biden was reportedly keen to cross the border, but was overruled by his secret service. the people who protect him this time with more notice they could make it work. security will be ramped up here when joe biden makes a major address to mock the 1st anniversary of the ukraine war. but no matter what he says, what will be remembered more than the speech is the visit that came before it. alan fisher, al jazeera warsaw last night. so to come here now does air including will tell you why residence in ohio, skeptical in a small town of east palestinians, and water is safe. and we look at a new british report that examines the disparity between black and white people who died after being restrained on the police morning. ah,
6:16 am
ah. now washington dc represents the east coast as being about 6 degrees. woman of average in minneapolis were about 6 degrees, more, less below average. so there is still a contrast winterstein in the upper midwest in canada and certainly coming in to the west, the pacific side. so while we see snow go through here, attempts to stay on the low side and briefly you might see a bit of rain in d. c. it is looking rather more wintry with a cold north wind, snow down to low levels in not just washington, northern california, then central california. and that system keeps going further south kill the bulk of snow, be up in the mountains, but it's going to be a cold wind anyway, and you're going to feel, but you're back in winter was in contrast, so warm in the southeast. and then this area here will be particularly stormy.
6:17 am
chicago may be getting some pretty nasty thunderstorms, with the breeze lighting to some degree. there are other duller wet weather on the coast in nicaragua is easy off. it's not about in panama, costa rica, rather mostly, generally fine was well she showers around the heavier shes been for the south in brazil, southeast brazil. this is in south palo state, but that sherry stuff is moving a bit away from sap house. what puerto alegre, nevertheless, expect big dam post for another 24 hours, particularly inland. ah, the, from the al jazeera london broadcast center to people in thoughtful conversation. the story of the world is that the global side developed the global north and continues to do that with no host and no limitations. the corporation, if it were he, a man would act like a psychopath. part one of as you bother and i said, raymond, we have to reduce our consumption here. but we also need economic justice board
6:18 am
work is studio b unscripted on al jazeera. ah ah, welcome back here, pick them out of the top stories here on the al jazeera, a new magnitude, 6 point for earthquake, a structure key is cut off. at least 5 people have been killed. and another $213.00 engine. at least $47000.00 people on the amount of dive since the earthquakes on february, the 6th, more than $41000.00 wrench, ikea and $6000.00 and syria and both rebel and regime held areas the country. and he was president joe biden has promised to stand with ukraine for as long as it takes during an unannounced visit to the capital,
6:19 am
p biden pledged $500000000.00 of additional military aid. and for the sanctions against russia, a phase 40 people have been killed off. the torrential rain triggered flooding on land slides and coastal areas in brazil, southeast on monday, brazil president, luis massey alluded to silver, flew over the affected areas. and tar neighborhoods have been submerged on the water, and hundreds of people have been displaced. monica, you not care. as in south sebastian, one of the worst hit areas were standing in the patio of a church. this is the place where thousands of volunteers have been gathering since sunday. here's where they're bringing all the supplies water. mattress is food clothes for all the people that have been forced out of their homes. some 2000 people were forced to leave because they are in danger. 600 millimeters of rain fall are fell on sunday. that is the same amount of water that was expected to fall
6:20 am
in one whole month. and this produced land sites on both sides of this church. and also further down we were following the fire men were trying to find the bodies of a man that disappeared on one side of this church and a whole family. on the other side of this church, president wheezy masula that you were over flu. the area to day, he says that, ah, one of the problems is that people have been building houses in risky places on the mountain. not only in this region, but another regions of brazil also which, where there have been land slides are some worse than these in the past years. now people here say that the reason that they build these houses in unsafe places is because they have nowhere else to go on. there isn't enough housing cheap housing. so the government has been promising that they will build
6:21 am
a housing for these people, so they will not incur in the same danger that they have so far are. so mom, we're still expecting here more people to arrive at this church because they're leaving areas of danger. and people hear what they're most worried is that the rain does not, are returned that for good weather. they're praying for good weather because the weather has been very unstable to the us now and frustrations are still simmering in a smaller, higher town were trained and carrying hazardous chemicals derailed early this month . new help to mix a being set up for residents. despite assurances by local officials, but there was no health risk. my come report, strong footage from the site of the train crash, wreckage is being cleared from the scene, but residents fear the impact on the environment is less visible. the angle was clear at a recent town hall meeting with many insisting that they were being lied to by
6:22 am
authorities who maintain that is no health risk. oh the c e. o. of the train company, norfolk southern, visited the town to meet with some residents, leaving many less than satisfied with what they heard. it's a terrible walks of it go. it falls on your shoulders or train, but the c o. l ensure declined to answer specific questions about clean up concerns for being completely transparent, completely collaborative with their highly pianists and transportation secretary, pete, put a judge, has made public a letter he sent to shaw calling for accountability, writing the people of east palestine cannot be forgotten nor can they pain be simply considered. the cost of doing business and questions are being raised in

6:24 am
and the u. e. in order to get to come to some sort of deal to only have a presidential statement. so this isn't legally binding as a un security council. resolution would be an actually original un security council resolution that was drafted called israel to immediately and completely cease all settlement activities and the occupied palestinian territory. it reaffirms the illegality of settlement construction. that would be legally binding, although as we know, israel isn't as well to, to take legally binding un security council resolutions as a, as legally binding. but instead the u. s. than went into these frantic negotiations in order to prevent a un security council resolution which it might have had to veto because of its unwavering support for israel and sydney, jo biden's, unwavering sports of the vengeance in that un yahoo. and the reason for that was the u. s. really ones, the focus this week to be on russia and ukraine. and later on this week they'll be un general assembly resolution that the, the, the us will be introducing,

misconduct in 2019 sean rigs. death inside this police station is one of those highlighted in a new report by the charity inquest. it found that black people a 7 times more likely than white people to die after being restrained by the police . the charity says police data has only shown deaths in police custody when a person's actually under arrest or in a cell. so deaths like daily in atkinson's weren't counted in 2016 police were called after the former professional footballer was seen behaving erotically. they take him for 33 seconds, then kicked him in the head. one officer was jailed for 8 years for manslaughter. deaths are very much at the sharp end of the continuum of racist indiscriminate replacing that. we've seen in official reports in home of his data from stop and search to use of force and use of paces. just as an example, windows read meta quit london's metropolitan police 3 years ago. she was the force,
6:27 am
his most senior woman from an ethnic minority. she says a racist culture is behind the disturbing statistics of black people dying after contact with the police. they have to acknowledge that a racism may play apart and really investigate it rather than dismiss it. and that comes with more training of understanding what racism is. it seems that that the blockage is the barrier, but that barry and blockage and lack of training and understanding, is then leading to lives being lost on the street in such a tragic way. the u. k. home office issued a statement saying, we expect police to take a 0 tolerance approach to racism within their workplace. adding that any use of force by police must be lawful, proportionate and necessary. critics, i only tougher punishments can make that a reality. nadine barbara al jazeera london, the chinese government says the property market is improving after a new survey show the sales of houses in 16 cities rose for the 3rd straight week.
