6:04 pm
a position to lead the charge in the upcoming elections where that's going to kill in question buckets on political joy say sometimes not made ballard bulk and iran con has so many cases against him, which shows that the government is determined to jail him to nail him somehow or the primarily because right in popularity and the opposition between the buckets on democratic alliance. and ron font party is one of the most popular leaders in the country. however, read all the case against them that are feared that the government wants to marginalize game by have disqualify him game. whatever matter, did the guardian run on to nullify him so that they can have a clean sweep at the elections which are due and up on job on the 3rd year,
6:05 pm
and then red and the country, the national election and october george, very difficult to say. where did ron han will be able to show why the storm, certainly determined he had been determined and had always said that he's willing to go to any limit in order to try and achieve the objective. then of course, he's always been saying that he wanted it done peacefully constitutionally the themes and lord i didn't. residents, of course, were very disturbing. a sister what their house was rated by the police, according to reports that we have received, external and internal damage to the property was done to give them the water and the police did not need one. so that also showed high nurse of the provincial government, dep august on has a history of for between political parties and always seeing this kind
6:06 pm
of wrench for action being carried out. so that of course not sending the right signal em rhonda already planning to hold and rally in the hall on monday. and i will show once again that id supported richard rally behind him. but ready to government allow that welder provincial are targeted, allowed, given the fact that the elections are due on the 3rd year and other parties are also campaigning. so the next few days would be critic. there's like a mile high to reporting from a small about thank you very much. a former us president donald trump says he expects to be arrested on tuesday. he made this remark a short time ago in his truth social media site, and trump cited what he called illegal leaks in the manhattan district attorney's office. he called on his supporters to protest my candidate in washington dc. mike trump faces all sorts of legal challenges. what's this one about? what does he think he might be arrested for?
6:07 pm
well, trumpets referring to a case that has been ongoing in new york. there has been a grand jury hearing into harsh money paid to, to women one, a former porn star. this money was allegedly paid by trump through an intermediary to get them to keep quiet about having had sexual relations with him. in the past. now trumps then attorney michael cohen has appeared before the grand jury. and although grand jury proceedings are secret code has stated publicly that he orchestrated the payment to, to women in order to keep them quiet about having had sexual relations with trump. now the significance of this is its timing because the payments were made during the campaign period before the 2016 election. and what the grand jury has been deciding on is whether this was in fact, a contravention of campaign funding laws, which is a criminal act. now the,
6:08 pm
the new york district attorney has given trump the opportunity to appear before that grand jury that was a week ago. and that normally does precede some form of indictment in this particular case. so this is what trump is referring to, no confirmation whatsoever from any other source. in fact, trump's own spokesperson confirms that this is from what trump calls illegal leaks . there has been no official notification whatsoever. and currently, there are no charges against trump. in this case, it's important to point out, so we don't know if any will be broad at this stage. why would trump go ahead and make this unsubstantiated statement about his own arrest? slow. we don't know why i am making it in the 3rd person as well. are you quite correct? i mean, trump is facing a number of far more serious allegations i. there's a federal case against him looking at his misuse, alleged misuse of papers that he used during his presidency,
6:09 pm
taking them to his home in morale laga. there's an ongoing investigation in georgia . there's another investigation in terms of his actions leading to the general general 6 insurrection in washington, d. c. and there's another case in new york involving his misuse off or misstating of his company's money of amounts in order to decrease his tax. liability said this a number of cases that he's facing a white at sea choose this particular one to deny without any evidence whatsoever. well, many experts are indicating that he wants to get people out into the streets. he's going to campaign again for the presidency in the next election. he's time pain has been stumbling at this particular point. it would appear that the intention of this is to get people out into the streets to protest. there's a parallel to this and the events of january, the 6th, when he called on people to protest outside the capitol,
6:10 pm
which resulted in that particular insurrection, but also tramp using the word their arrest. now that is just a clear indication that he is attempting to get his followers to rise up. he will not be arrested on these charges. immediately. should any action be taken? he may at most be indicted. that very use of the word arrest is a clear indication that he is attempting to stir up public public support. mike hannah in washington, d. c. thank you. is plenty more head on this news hour, including another round of talks to try and end one of europe's longest disputes the u. hopes. both sides will accept its proposal to ease tensions and the world number one's title defense at indian wells comes to an end. peter will have all the sport later the cell. ah, torque is foreign minister says his country looks forward to normalizing relations
6:11 pm
with egypt. man looked travel, travel shore luez in cairo where he's been meeting egypt, foreign minister. it's the 1st official visit by senior turkish delegation in more than a decade. this comes a few weeks after some a shook re made a humanitarian visit to turkey and syria, to shore egypt support after 2 major earthquakes. for so sort our reports on this from a stumble. it was a significant, they enlisted between turkey and egypt, turkey, as for a minister mode of social, or nearly after a decade for the 1st time, was in cairo, and he has met his egyptian counterpart, the relations between tricky and, and egypt went to ups and downs through the last decade since the military coup in 2013 in egypt. but in 2020 we have seen one messages coming out of anchor and chiral present, added one, expressed his willingness to restore the ties with egypt. and over a month ago when 2 powerful earthquakes hid the sultan,
6:12 pm
trickier president of egypt up to fetter c. c. has a has called present, add, want to quote, to can be his condolences, then egyptian, for the minister, a some shook a wisdom. the at the dead, the disaster area in turkey to show his country is solidarity, which just turkey. and then turkey's for the minister motor cho shola went to cairo to, to, to, to give a step up to this warm and vitamin. and to day to for the ministers have promised a lot, deepening the trade relations, corporate and on regional issues. and also fully restoring the diplomatic ties for love. so low lead, we have solid grounds and we are confident that we were to restore relations with turkey in a strong way in the way we look forward to the talks leading to the return of ambassadors between egypt and turkey were despite all of these positive messages coming out of cairo today, there are steve to mean issues needs to be address properly by kate or an anchor.
6:13 pm
the 1st one is the libya and libya. turkey support to the poorly be is government. while egypt supports bengal bees that government and in east mediterranean in 2019 tricky, has been excluded from east mediterranean gas for him. so the experts are seen that as long as turkey and egypt supposed different sides in libya, or at least they are not able to find a middle ground in libya. and also as long as turkey is excluded from is mediterranean gas for am delicious. between these 2 countries are going to still remain fragile. russell said that of jazeera a stumble as bring in helene. sorry, arthur, she's an assistant assistant professor of international relations that is stumble. madame yet, university jones is by skype today. thank you for being with us. why do you think both countries want to normalize relations at this stage? what's in it for each site? well, this is the necessity, both in terms of local, regional and,
6:14 pm
or possibly in the global level. because things are changing quite quickly. not only in the region in the middle east, but also on the globe because we have rising power like china, india, and russia, me to terribly. but it's the same time. we still see, keep seeing united states as the strong power in the region. but i think these are flexibility in the relationship among all these parties, including the regional actors like turkey and egypt kept showing that when situation is much better for, for the countries, especially in the muslim world. because the, in my point of view, they've been earned too much with the conflict, chose to creation in the last couple of years. so normalization process is i guess, and necessity in many levels and all countries, including turkey and egypt, see that they have much more to, to when to earn, to get positively if they improve the relations. there's
6:15 pm
a presidential election in turkey, of course, 2 months from now in may. what happens if the opposition wins that election and president are the one is no longer heading leading the country? well, i guess me can still be say the turkey has a mission. foreign policy approach, and this is based on a balancing power the policy, so turkey has been benefiting a lot if it has its practices, a balancing approach in the region, and especially among the super poverty for this reason, i believe that there will be a strong continuation of this normalization process, even though the position winds in turkey. so i guess this is about the traditional turkish one policy approach that there is a lot to wind. if you apply f balancing approach instead of a conflict conflict chose situation in the region. ok if we take a wider look at the region is the 2nd time in a week that we see
6:16 pm
a significant move towards normalization of regional rivals. the 1st was between saudi and iran. now between turkey and egypt, do you see a connection there? and if so, what's happening in the wider middle east right now? while i guess we've been observing this normalization, so called normalization process since 2020 and well there are so many chains. quick change that the reason 1st of all, we have the by the net ministration, instead of the campus and the ration in the region. and by going to administration is applying your policy, which is also similar to obama policy to get closer to iran, to normalize the relation between iran and the united states regarding the nuclear issue as well. so we see the normalization, even between iran and the united states, although they don't have a very concrete outcome yet. there's an afford to continue in the process. and i guess this approach also shows that as there is other,
6:17 pm
other rising poverty globally, especially russia, russia and ukraine as a crisis. we have india and china on the other side of the word as august regional countries like turkey like so, the r o b l have understood that they can not rely too much on the united states. the united states will not be always there to solve the problems off the regional countries, the regional countries, especially the muslim world members off the muslim world, they have to sold their own problems. this is senior business as obama, and by them on the line for so many times. so i guess the region has already understood that, but up, so much to there's, there's so much thing to, to do, to solve their problems. and there's a lot to been if they can have been normalized relationship in the region. and this is in the system by on the, on the line. this is a global necessity. this is a regional necessity. and the countries like true key egypt solve the united arab
6:18 pm
emirates. they understood that they have to be flexible. they have to be flexible because we're talking about the multiplex words in which there are available relations between every country. so this is quite complex to rule to direct, to manage successfully so they have to be flexible instead of relying only on the complex chill issue. helen's sorry, art them. thank you so much for your views, especially on this from the regional, wider implications of this regional refresh mind making. thank and that julians have returned to the polls to elect new governors in 28 states. new state assemblies are also being picked. now this vote was delayed by a week. the electoral commission saying it needed time to reconfigure electronic voting machines, following a disputed presidential election in february amended risk joins us live now from kind of augment, you've been at a polling station all day. how did the vote go?
6:19 pm
well, basically it is. the voting has been largely successful and peaceful in many parts of condo state and many parts of the 20 states of nigeria. why voting took place? remember that i purchased 6 states and juror 8 of them are not holding the governorship elections to date because of court decisions or court rulings that's target. they're like shoes and they're off season for now. now basically the elections, according to officials, from most part of the country that we've called, or been in contact with, say the elections went on peacefully. however, they're not isolated incidents even here at the polling station we are at now. there was an attempt, as voting came close. that was an attempt to cut the process. individuals invaded the falling center, which was about 6 or 7 units at the post. and they just,
6:20 pm
they wanted to disrupt the process. it took the quick intervention of security ages as the police and other security organ in congo state to put everything in order. so the porting and counting process could not take place in the open in the public glare because of that particular threat to the process. so they moved be officials devoting officials as well as party agents or representatives of the political parties were here to ensure that the vote goes on the way it was plan. so they move everything inside this room to protect the integrity of the vote. i'm there are similar passes in certain parts of the country that was reported. i don't talk close. usually it's at this time when individuals tried to disrupt the process and disrupt the polls because they felt maybe they may not win an election when the election or the polling stations. and this is all coming on the back of the
6:21 pm
presidential election just a few weeks ago. so how could this bo change the politics basically, the, this particular election is important simply because it's closer to the voter or the electorate. because governors and members of state assemblies make laws that impact more on the individual living in a state or local council. what happened has a larger implication to governors at the grassroots, and apart from that, the governor school elective today will be elected today will have not only been placed in the states, but also at the national level. remember, governors have enormous powers, not only in the states, but in deciding who becomes a presidential candidate in tons for political party in a presidential election or contest. simply because they control the vote at the
6:22 pm
local level at the what level at the local government level. and even at this number, what they say goes at the national convention was candidates a flag better. so political parties are being electric. and apart from that, when they help and large number of people and large population in the states, definitely they have low, the voice. i why the impacts and more employees at the national level including what happens in their own state. so this vote in particular is being seen as local local voters as very important a significant to what will happen to them in the next 4 years. now, many address in condo, nigeria, thank you very much. russian president vladimir putin is in crimea to mark the 9th anniversary of the peninsulas annexation from ukraine put in toward an art school. and a children's center is visit coming a day after the international criminal court issued an arrest warrant accusing putin of bearing personal responsibility for the abduction of ukrainian children.

flooded areas of peru. but i think mostly we talked about amazonia, and then the rest of brazil does look potentially wet in localized downpours, different story for the north. so the cold air coming out of the u. s. has been temperatures in mexico, are dropping rapidly. and with that, you might also find some big downpours, including in the yucatan and st. thomas, the tail end of frontal system, and he meets up. so if you're in jamaica or cuba think a big damp horton flash flooding for another couple of days. and yes, he's already started. i know in the us. yeah, it's been dry in california for a few days that were last particularly cold still in the mid west. and that's lake effect, snow likely to affect new england and wisconsin and minnesota. but the sun comes out afterwards. same time. look at the pacific coast and california, yet more rain over the flooded central valley. ah,

6:32 pm
the equivalent of $4.00 to take people to the mainland and they simply don't have the money. so they're relying on police services. we're sending 2 boats out a day and collecting people, they make about 6 trips and so far they've reached about 1300 people. but hundreds more are waiting on an island like this. other had to take refuge in trees. they've lost absolutely everything. their homes have been washed away. they also don't have any food, and that's the main thing they're complained about. as soon as we reach this island, they said they're hungry and they're trying to get to the mainland to get food. because a little may, they did have, has now run out and has nothing left. they even, even if they did have maze, they don't have homes, they don't have shelter, they don't have cooking utensils or pots, there's really nothing they can do. we also understand it further on this island. they are more people waiting for rescue efforts are, but they're simply too weak and tired to make it here. so they would have to wait for assistance to reach them a little more in land. we know about

a 126000 people in this district alone have been displaced. please say they're doing as much as they can. it's taken some time to reach areas like this because they've been inaccessible. the water was just too strong and too high. so these rescue efforts continue, and it certainly will be a number of a few more days before the is i suppose, a greater a bigger dent made in terms of rescuing people in places like this, which have been very difficult to reach up to. now a tamara, yoda is a resident of land tyre. she's been volunteering and a camp for people displaced by the disaster. i am summer and you hold up and we're going to yeah, i think showtime in brand time when i say i could hear like shouts of these people crying for help. so i phoned it. it was a need for me to come and help them some to drain like small ones. they have lost
