thank you very much for joining as we begin this news are with the liter surfers to restore ties between iraq and saudi arabia. the 2 countries have announced plans for their foreign ministers to meet iran's wholesale. amir abdulla he on has proposed relocations for the talks with his saudi counterpart. prince fly far, been far hon. it comes after they reach an agreement amend a 7 year rift earlier this month. let's go live to our correspondent into iran alley hush. him alley saw another important step towards re establishing relations between saudi arabia and iran. tell us more about what was said today. does actually more development. dia iranian president of brian rice. he announced through his one of his aides, that kinks amount of saudi arabia sent him an invitation to visit 3 autumn. this is actually a big development i raise, he accepted the invitation. he said he's going to walk on booth sing relations

between the 2 countries. now, if we go back to what i was saying, i me rob the land, sat in the process that we attended today and to her on. he also stressed that both countries right now are exchanging technical teams in order to inspect the embassies in reorder and into iran and see whether they're ready for both submissions to be deployed. there. also, he spoke about the attempt said, as you said in the and the news copy that a true to meter, the iranian suggested according to our land 3 locations for the meeting and what it was really a quite important that the exchange took place. now, through the swiss embassy and not through the chinese, and this could kind of indicate that there are several channels between the iranians and the saudis. right now. and ali separately, yvonne and iraq has signed i joined security dale in baghdad. how significant is

well, this is very significant, especially if we did take into consideration what happened during the past months. iranians were bombarding the northern territories of iraq. we cause of several iranian curtis separate is separated as groups that are functioning in that area. so alicia honey, the secretary of iran supreme and national security council went today to iraq, met iraqi officials. and it was this agreement that they reached actually end up for jose number. i mean, i believe abdulla he and also addressed this treaty, erica, and yet you say to begin it, we agreed to form a national security committee that included security and legal representatives from the federal government of iraq, the government of kurdistan in northern iraq and iran, a security document for the 1st time has been prepared and ready to be signed by

both countries. previously, there were other documents with northern iraq, only. there is full and well study coordination in this regard between the 2 countries through different political and security committees, etc. ok. now to see whether this sir agreement between iraq and iran is going to have its impact on the region mainly on the northern region of fall through iraq. after all these mon sofa tension, this is all what we have from to run on. i mean, i've de leon suppressor. thank you very much for that. allie. hashem live in iran capital tehran. well, it's been 20 years since the start of the us led invasion that toppled iraqi president saddam hussein. the military operation was launch without un support. unlike the 1st gulf war and the invasion of afghanistan, sylvania takes her look at what happens 2 decades ago. so let's take a look at the main events leading up to and during the iraq war. 1991,

the gulf war ends, the un security council demands that iraq give up all weapons of mass destruction in exchange for lifting sanctions imposed after iraq's invasion of kuwait. during the 19 ninety's, iraq promise is repeatedly that it has turned over all its banned weapons. not true . several or later discovered in 1998, president bill clinton signs the iraq liberation act that makes removing saddam hussein's regime. the official policy of the u. s. government. after the 911 attacks clinton's success, george w bush identifies the rock as part of an axis of evil that speech widely seen as laying the groundwork for american military action in november 2002 as the u. s. is preparing to invade. the un security council pass is resolution $1441.00, giving iraq a final opportunity to disarm the united nations carries out $700.00 inspections for weapons of mass destruction. and what do they find?

no, w n d 's. still on march 20th, the us invasion of iraq begins aerial bombardment 1st, then a ground invasion. within 3 weeks, us forces take baghdad. and this becomes a defining image of the war. the statue of saddam hussein pulled down and fertile square. elsewhere in the capital, there is widespread arson and looting. american forces do little to stop that. iraq's army loses on the battlefield, but many soldiers go into ground and form armed groups. as for saddam, he is captured by us forces in december 2003. but the insurgency continues for years. officially, the u. s. leave the rock in december of 2011, but it still has troops there today. 2 decades after the invasion. and our diplomatic editor jane space looks at how the rack offensive damage the credibility of the united nations un weapons inspectors in iraq, their job to track down the country's chemical and biological weapons. we now know

there weren't any, a former iraqi ruler. saddam hussein that ceased his w. m. d program years earlier, but in 2003, you as president george bush was backed by the british prime minister, tony blair was saying he was hiding a huge stock pile. and they claimed they had the intelligence to prove it. the u. s . secretary of state colin powell now known to have been privately skeptical himself, tried to make the case in the security council, even wielding a vile. he said, could be anthrax about this. the u. s. and u k bitterly opposed by much of the international community including france and germany, failed to get a security council resolution to authorize a war they launched one anyway. the aftermath, one british diplomat who worked as his countries expert on iraq in the security council resigned. do you think the united nations ended up damaged or strengthened

by the war 20 years ago? and i think without doubt, it was damaged by the sector general at the united nations. didn't assert his authority to say that the war was the legal and should not happen. which later he admitted. and i think collectively the quote unquote un, this sense of a global community of nations, a sense of a share set of rules took a very big hit as a result in iraq or so where does that leave things now? 20 years on. once again, the security council is deeply divided and there's no doubt that the invasion of ukraine by russia, a permanent member, was a breach of international law and of the un charter. but western diplomats, when you speak to them privately, will tell you that their efforts to put pressure on moscow or even now hindered by the memory of what happened 2 decades ago. the run up to the war in iraq in 2003 was marked by defiance and disinformation,

resulting in deep damage to the un system and the rule of law around the world. so much may have changed since, but the repercussions of events that haunted the you and then a still being felt. james bayes al jazeera of the united nations. lest thou speak to mass n r, a shakira who's an independent iraqi politician and economists is joining us live from baghdad. thank you very much, sir. for your time, i 20 years ago i understand you lobbied for the us intervention in iraq. when you look at the state, your countries and to day, do you have any regrets? oh, thanks for the invite. yes. in fact, what happened back in the late ninety's in the early 2000, you know, the vast majority of the iraqi people were asking for help because of the ruthless nature of the previous redeem and the, you know, the executions and them and the wars. so we were living in the outside,

the iraq and in the united states, and we were trying to help. and we were lobbying the united states to help remove this regime and replace that with a federal democratic regime. so were yes, i think that was a good thing. the problem was not there. the problem was the day after apparently there was no plan for the day after. and they were basically improvising on a day to day basis. and a lot of mistakes were, were taking place in iraq after 2003 right after the invasion is okay. just to clarify and we'll talk about the mistakes in a minute, but you want it outside intervention to remove saddam hussein. but what about the fact that the justification for intervention was based on false information? false claims that saddam hussein had weapons of mass destruction. do you have any regret about that? about the way the intervention came about? obviously would have been ideal if the entire united nation would have voted for that. unfortunately, that didn't happen as far as the intelligence is concerned,

it was the united states government that said they have proof that there was weapons of mass destruction. of course, that doesn't mean that he never had it, of course, use chemical weapons against his own people in the north and the parts of iraq were kurdistan. and he had experiments with biological weapons. that was a fact. however, did the united nations inspector actually remove everything, or was there a few pieces hidden here and there? so it turns out that there was no weapons of mass destruction, but i, for one, was lobbying and seeing him himself. saddam hussein was a weapon of mass destruction because the death of 600000000, 600000 iranians, 300000 the iraqis and scores of death since i've been away. so he killed a lot of the problems over a 1000000 iraqis were and were killed by saddam, apart from the removal of saddam hussein. what would you say your country gained from this intervention? are there any benefits at all to the failures outweigh the benefits?

well of course, if you ask both people in iraq today, they, everybody would prefer to go back to the old regime because things were simpler. the salaries were low on average in about 5 or $6.00 a month. and there was no internet, there was no satellite tv. there was only 2 channels on tv. both of them were state controlled. prices were low, there was only one boogeyman which was today. we have thousands of boogie men and all sexy. so you see as course, we have mafia as we have militia, we have drugs so, so this change is a disaster, even though the average income on a monthly basis is about $600.00. but then the, you know, there is no security just a few weeks ago. something like 12 people were civilians were killed in their home and the allah and the government did absolutely nothing about it. they arrested one person who was involved in it. and the next day he was released by one of the mach

. yes. so what would you, if any rocky congregation do differently? i'm sorry to interrupt you. you said there was no plan after the u. s. intervene, what would you have done differently? and what do you, as an iraqi politician today do differently in your country to bring about security and to improve people's lives? absolutely. so the mistake that the u. s. did was they, they disbanded the iraqi army that shouldn't have been, shouldn't have taken place. because those army units turned into an opposition to the american presence and they were resisting that. so that was one mistake. what we need to do today is to unify all the military units. right now we have, i don't know, 15 or 16 types of military units from the popular mom, realisation unit to the army, to the police, to the fish market, to the so we have multiple and each one of them has different allegiances. and that's a problem in any country when your military has different allegiances. so unifying the military in the entire security force under one flag, which is the iraqi flag,

and have only iraqi people ordering them instead of having different countries or during our military units. so what happened with, with ices was a good example because we had, you know, americans helping us in the air, the ratings helping us on the ground. and we have multiple units. like i said, we need to unify that to 1st create the, the right stability and the security. so we can start inviting investors and iraq and create a great economy based on the capitalist, a style, not on the old social regime that saddam was running. where everything was paid by the government, schools were free. salaries were low and everybody had to have a job. so it was a social 3 gym rather than the capitalist one. thank you for talking to a thank you very much for your time. i was in a shock here, an independent college this year, and economy is joining us there from back that while some american military veteran

save us should not have invaded iraq. isaiah james is one of those former soldiers . he has his story in his own waits, miami, la jane from iraq. war veteran, i went to time, so i rec, also, was that guys in my job in the army was alone. bravo for those. no, no, that's infantry. my additional skill identifiers bravo for, for those who don't know that of the sniper 1st appointment was 15 months, 2nd, deployment was 12 months. 3rd deployment was 12 months. so i've been 39 months of combat. straight fighting. i could take a rifle in queer room and do all this crazy stuff. i've aerosol to not a helicopter. i grad dudes and put bags over the head. zip, tie them and put them on helicopters and solemn via phone away. and i've never seen the day the iraq war did not need that, but it should not have happened. my rack did nothing to us and we killed a 1000000 iraqi civilians lost $5000.00 plus american soldiers for what it

diminished are standing in the world. it damaged, bankrupted coffers. all i did was make the war machine get bigger and stronger, where i think anybody who's been shot at and blown up and seen people blown to little pieces as anti war. if you're not, and this is for, i'm speaking directly to every veteran out there. if you love war, then you never actually been it. if you, i don't give a damn with you. so if you talk about america, these of the, you never seen somebody take the last breath and a violence situation. you've never seen, i have a, she was not great. you do so much better than i ran for congress because i system is completely broken. i mean, we are, we are, by far the most powerful military in the world. we have one of the largest columns in the history of the world and all these the, there are, quote $33.00 industrialized nations on the planet earth. 32 of them provide

their citizens with some form of guaranteed healthcare. the only one it does is america madison. war for over to one. it mounts our job. as is new generation and war veterans who are more technologically savvy, who have access to more education. but it's not gonna change the way americans seen in the world. can't morehead on their sanchez here and use our, including were live in ecuador, where people are picking up the pieces after an earthquake in the south that killed 14 people. and at a spanish tennis sensation moved to within one way and of the well, number one spot, peter will have all the action from indian boss. ah, 1st in other news present, vitamin protein has visited russian. occupied, merrier poll in ukraine. the city in there don't? yes, screech and was annexed by moscow. last year. putin drove her on several districts

on saturday and was shown restoration work at a theater. and a university is trip comes after the international criminal court issued a warrant for his arrest on suspicion of unlawful deportation of ukrainian children . esco live to our correspondence, stephanie deca, who's in ukraine's capital key for us. so a visit to my appalled by the russian leaders, stephanie talked to us about the timing of his visit and the message, the russians are wanting to send him yes. well, certainly a very strong and defiant p r. a message. he flew into crimea the day before to mark 9 years since the annexation of crimea, and then went to mar, pulled in a helicopter and drove around the city. the russians issuing picture of vladimir putin behind the wheel of a car being shown at the city. so i think a certainly a message there that regardless of a 123 countries now and arresting him, if he visits them because of the arrest warrant issued by the international

criminal court, he showing that he's very much mobile when it comes to definitely areas that russia has now annexed at the same time. it's also about a year since a devastating siege on mary paul. it's the 1st time that vladimir putin visits any of the occupied territories since the war and this kind of a more official proper way. a marble of course suffered immensely. half the city was a skeleton of itself due to the heavy bombardment. no electricity, no water for months on end. and actually around a year ago, there was the most devastating loss of civilian life. the russian hit, a theater where civilians were sheltering and was very difficult at the time to get news out. because hardly any journalists were in the city, that's how difficult it was. it transpired months later that hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of civilians had died in that attack. and actually children had been written on the roof of that theater. at the time amnesty international was saying

that this was very much a potential war crime. so. so i think, twofold, the message there, one defiance to the i, c, c. and to of course, his visit to a city that was very much bombarded and rous and suffered under the hands of the russians now saying as his turing, that they are looking to rebuild to continue reconstruction. and in other news from ukraine, stephanie, there's been an extension to the grain deal, which looked very uncertain just yesterday. yes, i think the extension is something that was expected, the sticking pointed. it still remains a sticking point is just for how long under that deal brokerage by the united nations in turkey last year. it's supposed to be extended by a $120.00 days. that's 4 months, while the russians have been saying for the last week or so that they're only going to extend it. i 2 months, half of that because they're not happy with sanctions and how that's affecting their exports on the un is very diplomatic. yesterday,

when they announce the extension of the deal, not mentioning a time frame reading between the lines, we can tell that there's still no consensus as to quite how long is going to be extended for the bottom line. folly is that farmers here need a long term plan to be able to plan their harvest for the next year. even we were told we looked into and spoke to farmers that if 4 months isn't enough and why is this so significant? why is the un involved? because ukraine and russia are the world's largest suppliers of sunflower, oil of wheat, of grain, and ukraine, needs to exit the black sea, which russia controls to get that to the outside world. so this is why there is such an international effort as well to get this deal underway and to keep it in place for as long as possible. 70. thank you very much for that. stephanie deca ly forced air in cave. a strong earthquake has killed at least 14 people in ecuador, and one in peru or the magnitude 6.8 tremor was centered south of ecuador, 2nd largest city. guayaquil, i expect, has a detests streets littered with crumbled facades. rescue teams in ecuador

scramble to save those still trips after the earthquake. who will be rear balloon? a part of the facade collapsed. them fell on a vehicle that had already been removed by the police. we had one victim without vital signs. a male person, a number of buildings have collapsed across the coastal states of alberto and us. why? in the andes that gathered all. i think this idea people ran out, they yelled in despair. all the people got out of their cars. i don't know how an earthquake would feel in a car, but they were desperate and they ran, they yelled, cried there were reports of damage to infrastructure across the region and landslides, blocking civil roads. the trim was also felt across the border and northern peru where a young child was killed when her home collapsed. while the baby was playing where the stain of blood is, she was playing with my other niece,

and the brick fell on her ecuador and peru, a prone to earthquakes. they struggled the so called ring of fire, and the danger isn't over yet. but after shocks still ongoing, alex bid al jazeera on his now speak to journalists, colorado seniority from choir keel, kind of thank you so much for being with us. you experience here at craig to san tennis 1st. what it was like and was the extent of the damage in black hill. i. yes i leaving the studio why a car was here yesterday. it was there was happens. it was, it was felt very strongly here in the tv. people were are, and i feel very scared, especially because of the hostage shelf that many a pure 5. both of them were reporter 2 pm yesterday by the without being fail due to their law city. you cannot see a lot of damages here while you're killed. just you've been hearing crashes or has

yet, you know, few problems but nothing compared with the cd. so my child or plane works, they're suffering the name consequences of the are actually what's been the government's response. what sort of help are people who've been affected getting well, i us as he was so the president super good are we order? 14 people are di. 12 in the pony. so a lot or when the problem so us why? while 380, when we're injured, there are secretary of proofs of the presidency of the public have even a b cd and the injured people in the hospital. they are to do it on the secret title of risk taking care of their damages right now, helping the people with the needs right now in go, sarah weren't there or affected. thank you so much for that. carla. thank you for

updating us on the situation in ecuador. there. carol's, in early a journalist, joining us a lie from gray, came in malawi survivors of psych loan freddie, a warning another color outbreak is possible. the countries faced it's worse outbreak in 2 decades before the cycle and struck more than 50000 people are reported to have been infected in the last year. tens of thousands have been forced from their homes by flooding and landslides, more than 440 people have died. ghana meanwhile, is struggling to respond to a measles outbreak because of a shortage of vaccines. the government says it can't afford them because of high inflation, but critics play mismanagement column. baker has more zena adams lives in the city of tamale, 600 kilometers. north of gone has capitol across 3 of her children are sick with measles and she suspects her 4th is to she's left her business to visit them in hospital. this was really stressful. i had to look up my shop to be with them at

the hospital, and the little money i have is what you spent on their medication. that shouldn't have happened. i tried to get all my children vaccinated against these preventable diseases. what was unsuccessful? why should the country even run out of vaccine for children? zayna children are among scores who fallen ill since october last year during an outbreak of measles in the north. the united nations and gone as health minister say children have not died from the disease in the country for nearly 20 years. now, 5 are suspected to have died since the start of 2023. many health workers say that could have been prevented by vaccination. would allow that over 80 percent of the patients that we got between last year and now am, have not received the immunization the we have not received anything already received. this is single, those 6 standard childhood vaccines are made available in ghana through the un and

the global vaccine alliance gathered. the government funded vaccines including for measles, ran out. it blames and inflation. rate of more than 50 percent are only built to reach out to our various offices across the globe to see with some free countries can land some of these boxes to 2 countries. so that they feel the gop ganna is among many african states whose vaccination programs were brought to a standstill during the pandemic. the government acknowledges there are shortages, but says it's managed to get some new deliveries. but they've come to late for a number children. and she can only wait and hope they recover. column baker alba 0 . whenever we spoke to carmina minta, i condo was a member of parliament in ghana and a member of the health committee. he says, the government should have prioritize the procurement or vaccines in its annual budget. the government is a blend mitigate, administer,

responsible for health and the precedent because the bastards are that precedent because you see, we are something we call the national health insurance formula. and so these to do by says dr. rush for the buses that day by says that we are supposed to procure henry st. and we have the show as much money as we have in this country. while we are proving the formula for my health insurance and fund, we make positions for their procurement of these buses almost every year. so in last year, 2 into $2.00 and $2.00, for example, we made not less than $72000000.00 for the procurement of those buses. so, and when we check, we realize that these monies are being released and we don't understand why the money will be released and get we'll know how the process will process in this country. we can last sacrifice the lives when the children in this country because of information. yes, i agree that for example, as i speak to you now, i inflation is more than 54 percent of the respect t for the inflation might think about talking about like you might be. and these

are the future leaders of our country. so we have no, absolutely no reason to wait and such a fight the lives of these children because of a politic i do not. and i mean, i respect the regulation that we've been doing as a country, and it's my top priorities, asian. we have to privatized buston says with us why i believe that is lack of forward planning. physically lack of for, and there is no way there's no way and it has been stated. but out of the shortage of buses in the market still had on the usa voters in montenegro, choosing their next residential day. that apartment was developed reports of mass killings and graves, as thousands of displays. people continue to arrive in camps in a democratic republic of congo. and another day, another record for american sky sa, mikaela, schiffron will tell you about her name. the key with ah,

it's no longer hot, but again, yeah, that's not a big surprise. the cloudy rains come in. this st. he has been persistent cherry stuff, sundry stuff, which is cool things down in argentina. it's only $22.00 and by a blanket it's still quite out in one of those. and it won't be there's a 20, it's bit above the average here. i think it's both will cool down a little bit sherry regimes on its way, but the biggest shall have been further north, and they are still in good part of amazonia. we see where was, you know, in lima and up through to ecuador, and there's no particular reason for particularly big showers here. but of course they are going to follow the area. we just had an earthquake, said knocker to be welcomed, and the change in the well, the quiet weather over the caribbean means significant showers. i think of the lead housing that wind then turns round to me to cold out flow from states. so you like to have big showers in jamaica up in cuba. you could sample inch in

a good part of mexican monterey is temperature of 8 degrees as a hint of the winter. it's still going on in the southwest, the u. s. and another winter storm coming in from the pacific sofa california, where the still flooding in the central valley, there will be more right in that stretches up to the canadian border and more snow on the mountains in land that'll keep going into monday. whereas everywhere else things are quiet and warming up. aah! iraq. a nation riddled with land mice and an expert dedicated to defusing them, one by one. equipped with only a knife and a pair of wire puckers, he faces death every day. but does his work make him a hero or a target witness?

the d minor on a jazeera when the news breaks, some buildings that had already been damaged, have been further pushed over to one side. others that were close to collapse when need to be heard. and the story told, i couldn't tell them that i was a musician. while i was supposed to be proud with exclusive interviews and in death to each centimeter of this stuff represents a year of life. al jazeera has teams on the ground to bring you more award winning documentaries, and lives. lou ah ah. you're watching al jazeera life until her with me fully battle our top stories on

this news. our iran sprays event a brain racy, has reportedly accepted an invitation by saudi arabia's king to visit, re add the foreign ministers from both countries also expected to meet regional rivals. agreed to mend a 7 year rift earlier this month. it's been 20 years since the start of the us led invasion of iraq that combo present saddam hussein, the military operation was launch without un support. unlike the 1st gulf war and the invasion of afghanistan and president vladimir putin has visited russian, occupied mario full in ukraine. the city in the don't yet screeching was annexed by moscow last year. 14 met residence and visited areas under reconstruction. to montenegro in our way elections are underway to choose the next president the races between the countries long as serving leader, we load your carnival and rivals hoping to change your political landscape. ongoing political deadlock has sold the nato members bid to join the

e. u. and some people are worried that the country kuda online more closely with russia. well, let's speak to al jazeera as even pat kobe choosing. joining us from montenegro, us capital port karita, here, and what's at stake for all the political parties in this election. but it's always hard to expect that the new president will be elected to day, given that research shows that there is going to definitely be a 2nd drum. it's hard to expect that then the 07 candidates could of in 50 percent of votes need to center the office. so it's highly expect that the income imprisonment milledgeville, kind of which will enter the 2nd round. his opponent could be either a pro serbian hardliners onvia monday, or a moderate politician. quote me a lot of it from the europe now moment. the selection so indicate that it could be an indicator of how the political situation in the country will develop further. political crisis is going on for years. the concentration is that the government

isn't a technical mandate and early parliamentary elections coming up in july. what are the main nations voters are concerned about and are any of the candidates addressing them voters. so people in general are interested in economic situation in the country as well as their life. so they are also interested in the countries europe can affect which is in the defense bill due to the political crisis. these topics are present in the selections, but the campaign itself was rather mild and come without ca schwartz week. she's just kind of a surprise due to a huge political crisis in the country which last 4 years. so we can only show it shows that the public in montenegro generally tired of this, the political divisions into a problem to negro and pro serbian blocks or provost and install elements for

russian blocks if you want. so these topics again can prevail in the campaign for the 2nd round, but it could be a decisive ball. so, but it depends whether in the 2nd on there is there is going to be a hard lie in candidates or goes for moderate solar. it will show some kind of what development in the country and the politic conference would be expected in the next years. thank you for that event pass coverage with an a to say from montenegro in nigeria. vote counting is on the way after millions of people voted for state governors, violence and voter intimidation were reported in some cities. people cast their ballot for more than $900.00. assembly legislative and 20 governors is old. so i expected on monday. let's go live to amity dri, susan connell for so elections that are coming just weeks after the disputed presidential vote. tell us how the vote counting is going and what the nature says
